ABSTRACT
Solitary tumefactive demyelination is rare in children, and the diagnosis is often conferred after brain biopsy. The authors report 3 children with solitary tumefactive demyelination and provide clinical and paraclinical clues to aid the clinician in reaching a diagnosis using a noninvasive approach.

ABSTRACT
Congenital epulis is an uncommon benign tumor that originates from the alveolar ridge in newborns. It is also known as congenital gingival granular cell tumor. Although there have been around 200 reports of its postnatal diagnosis, this oral tumor has rarely been diagnosed prenatally. We present fetal MRI and Doppler prenatal imaging of an infant with two congenital epulides (simultaneous involvement of superior and inferior maxillas).
