A Case of Phlebectasia in a Child Presenting With Neck Mass.

Jugular phlebectasia is an enlargement of the jugular vein that manifests as a soft, cystic lump in the neck which can be compressed, becomes prominent on crying or straining and disappears on rest. It needs to be distinguished from laryngocele, neck cysts, and tumours that can also develop with straining. We report a case of a seven-year-old boy presenting with a cervical cystic mass. Comparable computed tomography and ultrasonography findings helped identify the pathology.

A Comprehensive Review on the Diagnosis of Knee Injury by Deep Learning-Based Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

The continual improvement in the field of medical diagnosis has led to the monopoly of using deep learning (DL)-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the diagnosis of knee injury related to meniscal injury, ligament injury including the cruciate ligaments, collateral ligaments and medial patella-femoral ligament, and cartilage injury. The present systematic review was done by PubMed and Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), wherein we finalised 24 studies conducted on the accuracy of DL MRI studies for knee injury identification. The studies showed an accuracy of 72.5% to 100% indicating that DL MRI holds an equivalent performance as humans in decision-making and management of knee injuries. This further opens up future exploration for improving MRI-based diagnosis keeping in mind the limitations of verification bias and data imbalance in ground truth subjectivity.

Acute Cholelithiasis With Acute Pancreatic Calcifications: A Unique Presentation of Sickle Cell Crisis.

Sickle cell disease is one of the most prevalent hemoglobinopathies around the world. Sickle cell anemia manifests due to a genetic alteration caused by substituting a single nucleotide in place of another nucleotide in the beta-globin gene. This mutation causes rigidity and sickling of the erythrocytes when the oxygen saturation falls in conditions like infection, dehydration, stress, etc. The distorted erythrocytes cause vaso-occlusion, tissue ischemia, and infarction. Cholelithiasis is known to be a frequent complication in cases of sickle cell anemia. It occurs because of chronic hemolysis. In sickle cell patients, calcific pancreatitis is an infrequent complication of vaso-occlusive crisis. It appears in connection with cholelithiasis in most patients. This case report highlights a rare presentation of sickle cell crisis complicated with multiple pigmented gall bladder calculi and pancreatic calcifications.

Post-COVID-19 Myositis Based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Case Report.

The severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes COVID-19, which is known to cause fever, dry cough, exhaustion, headache, and loss of taste and smell. Although fever, sore throat, and cough have historically been the utmost characteristic symptoms of the illness, published case reports have recently started to emphasize additional uncommon and unusual presentations of infection with the coronavirus. In COVID, the musculoskeletal system is seldomly involved. In addition to reviewing the causes and imaging characteristics of COVID-19-related illnesses of the musculoskeletal system, we elaborate on a case of a middle-aged man who developed myositis as sequelae to the COVID-19 infection.

Antenatal Ultrasonographic Diagnosis of a Constellation of Alobar Holoprosencephaly, Ethmocephaly, and Hydronephrosis in a Case of Early-Onset Intrauterine Growth Retardation: A Case Report.

Alobar holoprosencephaly is a congenital malformation that results from failure of the forebrain/prosencephalon to divide into right and left halves. Despite the literature on the genetic and chromosomal abnormalities associated with this condition, information on additional causes and explanations for variability in phenotypic expressivity are lacking. We report a case of early-onset intrauterine growth retardation with alobar holoprosencephaly, ethmocephaly, and hydronephrosis diagnosed on antenatal ultrasonography in a 27-year-old primigravida with no known risk factors or family history. The combination of holoprosencephaly with associated midline facial anomalies and the genitourinary abnormality, in this case, constitutes a rare phenotypic presentation. This case emphasizes the importance of antenatal ultrasonography in the early detection of lethal anomalies like alobar holoprosencephaly. The pregnancy was safely terminated in accordance with the mother's decision.

Ileal Lipoma as a Leading Point of Ileocolic Intussusception in Adult Patient: Ultrasonography and CT Evaluation.

Intussusception in adults is an unusual finding and is commonly associated with benign or malignant mass as the leading point. A preoperative diagnosis on imaging is helpful in diagnosing intussusception along with pathology causing it and aids in further management. We present a case of ileocolic intussusception with lipoma as the lead point: classic ultrasonography and CT imaging findings are described with its postoperative confirmation.

Intracranial Rosai-Dorfman Disease: A Case to Remember.

Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (SHML), an alternative term for Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), is a rare benign idiopathic immune-related lymphoproliferative condition. The central nervous system (CNS) has been documented to be involved in RDD, although lymph nodes are the organs that are most frequently and primarily associated with the disease manifestation. Nonetheless, CNS involvement in RDD is rare and poorly understood. As a result, there is a lack of a solid basis for therapeutic approaches for CNS involvement in RDD. Here, we present a case of RDD with cerebral involvement, a rare presentation of RDD with atypical symptoms. A brief assessment of the radiographic appearance, histological findings, and the peculiar manifestations of the disease is provided.
