RESUMO

The most common abdominal malignancies diagnosed in the pediatric population include neuroblastoma, Wilms tumor, hepatoblastoma, lymphoma, germ cell tumor, and rhabdomyosarcoma. There are distinctive imaging findings and patterns of spread for each of these tumors that radiologists must know for diagnosis and staging and for monitoring the patient's response to treatment. The multidisciplinary treatment group that includes oncologists, surgeons, and radiation oncologists relies heavily on imaging evaluation to identify the best treatment course and prognostication of imaging findings, such as the image-defined risk factors for neuroblastomas, the PRETreatment EXtent of Disease staging system for hepatoblastoma, and the Ann Arbor staging system for lymphomas. It is imperative for radiologists to be able to correctly indicate the best imaging methods for diagnosis, staging, and restaging of each of these most prevalent tumors to avoid inconclusive or unnecessary examinations. The authors review in a practical manner the most updated key points in diagnosing and staging disease and assessing response to treatment of the most common pediatric abdominal tumors. ©RSNA, 2024 Supplemental material is available for this article.

RESUMO

We report the case of an obese woman with a large hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) of 8.0 cm in diameter, followed for 5 years after Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, with a complete radiologic remission of the liver mass. Four other cases have been published with HCA regression after bariatric surgery, but none with long-term follow-up. As the association between obesity and HCA has been increasingly described, bariatric surgery should be considered a therapeutic option for stage 2 obese patients.

RESUMO

The objective of this article is to share the strategy we used in order to restructure the radiology and diagnostic imaging department of a referral institution during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, on the basis of the current recommendations. It is essential to integrate the work of supervisors, preceptors, and residents, maintaining communication and sharing decisions, with mutual support, as well as to determine the best strategy to be adopted in this scenario of uncertainty and constant change, while also ensuring adequate emotional support for all parties.


O objetivo deste artigo é compartilhar a estratégia de como estruturamos o departamento de radiologia e diagnóstico por imagem de uma instituição de referência na pandemia da COVID-19, baseados nas recomendações vigentes. É fundamental a integração entre supervisores, preceptores e residentes, sempre mantendo comunicação e compartilhamento das decisões, com apoio mútuo, decidindo a melhor estratégia a ser seguida neste cenário de incertezas e de mudanças contínuas, garantindo ainda suporte emocional adequado a todos.

RESUMO

Soft-tissue calcifications are extremely common. Because the imaging findings are nonspecific, soft-tissue calcifications are often problematic for radiologists, sometimes prompting unnecessary interventions. In addition, the nomenclature is quite confusing. Classically, soft-tissue calcifications are divided into four categories, by mechanism of formation-dystrophic, iatrogenic, metastatic, and idiopathic-depending on the clinical and biochemical correlation. However, it is also possible to classify such calcifications by compartment, and that classification can be quite useful in the radiological diagnostic assessment. In this article, we illustrate the main causes of soft-tissue calcifications, organizing them according to their anatomical and pathophysiological aspects, thus narrowing the differential diagnosis.


Calcificações de partes moles são achados extremamente comuns e inespecíficos nos exames de imagem e, por isso, frequentemente são fonte de confusão por parte dos radiologistas, desencadeando, por vezes, intervenções desnecessárias. Além disso, a nomenclatura atribuída é muito confusa. Classicamente, dividem-se as calcificações de partes moles, conforme seu mecanismo de formação, em calcificações distróficas, iatrogênicas, metastáticas e idiopáticas, dependendo de correlação clinicolaboratorial, porém, também é possível uma classificação compartimental das calcificações, que pode ser muito útil na propedêutica radiológica. Neste trabalho, ilustramos didaticamente as principais causas de calcificações de partes moles organizando-as de acordo com aspectos anatômicos e fisiopatológicos, estreitando os diagnósticos diferenciais.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Dunbar syndrome is a rare anatomical abnormality characterized by the extrinsic compression of the celiac trunk by the median arcuate ligament (MAL). Though it is rarely misdiagnosed, the clinical diagnosis may be difficult, especially after complex visceral surgery such as esophagectomy. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 62-year-old male patient with a squamous cell carcinoma of the distal esophagus, placed under trimodal treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy followed by hybrid minimal invasive 2-field esophagectomy) presented with abdominal pain refractory to analgesics, anti-spasmodic, opioids, and neuronal celiac plexus ablation in the late post-operative period. He was diagnosed with extrinsic celiac trunk compression based on abdominal angiotomography findings. Retrospectively, similar images were found in conventional abdominal tomography at pre-operative staging, but this time, the patient had only dysphagia. After surgical treatment of MAL, the patient had total relief of pain and symptoms. DISCUSSION: Abdominal pain after complex surgical procedures is very frequent and its investigation is mandatory, even more after refractory clinical management. Dunbar syndrome is related to ambiguous abdominal pain. It is uncommon and its diagnosis with angiotomography is accessible. CONCLUSION: Vascular disorders should be investigated in cases of abdominal pain after complex surgical procedures.
