Pages:

Synopsis: 
This study showed that the most common pathology that caused epilepsy in children was the indication of parenchymal damage. Another common pathology is hippocampal sclerosis and cortical developmental abnormalities. MRI is a non-invasive imaging modality that that does not involve any ionizing radiation and can be used to identify pathologies that lead to epileptic attacks in childhood.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To retrospectively analyse the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) observations and the distribution of etiological factors according to age groups in cases with MRI examinations for an epilepsy diagnosis.

Methods: The brain MRI of 606 cases from the 0–17 years age group were analysed retrospectively, and the findings were evaluated according to the age group.

Pediatric Isolated Trachea Rupture Treated with a Conservative Approach

DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2016.113

ABSTRACT

Tracheobronchial rupture as a result of blunt thoracic trauma is extremely rare in children; it is a life-threatening event, as it progresses rapidly and causes respiratory problems. The causes of non-penetrating tracheobronchial injury include blunt cervical trauma, endotracheal intubation, and other iatrogenic reasons.

This paper presents the clinical and radiological results of a pediatric patient who developed an isolated tracheal rupture following blunt thoracic trauma.
