Multicystic encephalomalacia is the condition defined anatomically by the presence of
multiple cavities in the great part of both cerebral hemispheres. The most common
cause of the condition was regarded as the circulatory disturbance during the perinatal period. Also,neonatal asphyxia was the most important cause of the circulatory disturbance.
But we experienced a case of multicystic encephalomalacia in a liveborn twin with a

The cholelithiasis and common bile duct(CBD) stone are rare problems among children.
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancretogram(ERCP) and endoscopic sphincterotomy
are rarely commomly utilized in the treatment of children, primarily because there are fewerindications.
ERCP is an established procedure for visualization of the biliary tract. Endoscopic
sphincterotomy with stone extraction has been accepted as the treatment of choice for
CBD stone removal in adults. However, the role... |

The most common prediasposing conditions of purpura fulminans are infectious disease like streptococcal infection and chickenpox. This disease is characterized by ecchymotic lesions that are usually distributed symmetrically on the lower extremities and buttocks. These ecchymotic lesions undergo necrosis, unless there is effective treatment.

Brain computed tomograpy is particularly accurate in defining cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) space because of the relatively great density difference between CSF and brain parenchyma. This noninvasive procedure has very quickly become definitive in the diagnosis of hydrocephalus. However, while the typical clinical and radiological picture of a hydrocephalic patient leaves no doubt as to the need for adequate surgical treatment.... |
