Computed tomography findings of unanticipated prolonged ileocolic intussusception in children.
BACKGROUND Attempted nonsurgical reduction of ileocolic intussusceptions after 48 hours is controversial because of the low probability of reduction and an increased risk of perforation. We sought to retrospectively identify computed tomography (CT) criteria that may help to predict bowel viability and successful enema reduction in children with ileocolic intussusception. METHODS Unanticipate...
متن کاملCone Beam Computed Tomography(CBCT) Features Of A Rare Fibro-Osseous Lesion: A Case Report
Cone beam computed tomography is a useful technique for imaging the craniofacial lesions. It produces more realistic images that facilitate interpretation. Juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF) is a rare and benign fibro-osseous neoplasm that arises within the craniofacial bones, especially in the maxilla. Mandibular lesions can be seen in 10% of the cases.In both jaws, it has a predilection for the...
متن کاملSigmoid volvulus showing a "whirl sign" on computed tomography
Background Sigmoid volvulus is a rare condition. A high incidence has been reported in debilitated, or chronically constipated patients. It is important to recognize this condition early and then initiate prompt treatment. Endoscopic treatment has a high perforation risk. The "whirl sign", was first described by Fisher, as suggesting volvulus of the small bowel, and it was considered that this ...
متن کاملA Case of Mistaken Identity..
Paragangliomas (PG) are rare tumors of the autonomic nervous system. Their origin takes part in the neural crest cells, which produce neuropeptides and catecholamines [1]. In 1050% of cases, they are hereditary, beginning at younger ages. In 80-90% of abdominal PG and 5-10% of head and neck PG, catecholamine production can cause arterial hypertension, headache, palpitations, anxiety and weight ...

tion, may mediate or contribute to these findings. colleagues (1999) is to characterize the truncated pro-any, between hypocretins and HLA-DQB1*0602 in hu-19, 248–257. mans. HLA class II molecules, such as HLA-DQB1*0602, are expressed in the nervous system and bind peptides; whether or not a particular peptide is bound depends on which antigen is expressed. If HLA-DQB1*0602 binds hypocretins, i...
