This report describes a case in which diplopia was developed as a finding of postinfectious anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor encephalitis. Infectious encephalitis, especially herpes simplex virus, is essential as it is one of the triggers of autoimmune encephalitis. Even if the cases present unexpected clinical findings, we should be vigilant in...

Purpose Our aim was to evaluate the performance of clot-based radiomics features (RFs) for predicting first pass effect (FPE) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The secondary purpose was to search for any other variables associated with FPE. Materials and methods Patients who underwent mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for anterior circulati...

Purpose To detect false‐positive reduction results after ultrasound (US)‐guided hydrostatic intussusception reduction, we have incorporated water‐soluble contrast material to the enema fluid and confirmed the reduction with a single abdominal radiograph. We present the results of the combined imaging method for the reduction of intussusception in c...

Objectives: To evaluate the performance of CT-based texture analysis (TA) for predicting clinical outcomes of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods: This single-center, retrospective study contained 64 consecutive patients with AIS who underwent MT for large anterior circulation occlusion between December 2016 and...

Background: The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and clinical features in cerebral palsy (CP). Methods: Children aged 3 to 18 years, who were followed with the diagnosis of CP between January 2012 and September 2015, were included. The type of CP was classified usi...

Objective: To assess the role of the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to predict the postnatal survival in patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Method: 25 patients with CDH who had fetal MRI between 2015 and 2020 were enrolled in this retrospective study. Patients were divided into two groups according to the postnatal survival at 3...

Pituitary stalk interruption syndrome is a rare disease characterized by a deficiency of adenohypophyseal hormones. Clinical presentation usually occurs in childhood or in the second decade of life. The severity of hormonal deficiency is variable. It may be isolated or be accompanied by extra–pituitary anomalies. Magnetic resonance imaging findings...

Background Biallelic variants in PNPT1 cause a mitochondrial disease of variable severity. PNPT1 (polynucleotide phosphorylase) is a mitochondrial protein involved in RNA processing where it has a dual role in the import of small RNAs into mitochondria and in preventing the formation and release of mitochondrial double-stranded RNA into the cytopla...

Achondroplasia is the most common hereditary form of dwarfism and is characterized by short stature, macrocephaly and various skeletal abnormalities. The phenotypic changes are mainly related to the inhibition of endochondral bone growth. Besides the several commonly known physical features that are characteristic of this syndrome, achondroplasia c...

Objective: The aim of our study is to evaluate the diagnostic effectiveness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compared to computed tomography (CT) in the detection of enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) in childhood. Methods: One hundred twenty-three children who underwent temporal bone CT and MRI examinations for hearing loss between 2013 and...

AIM To evaluate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features and signal characteristics of parotid masses and investigate the added role of texture analysis (TA) in the differentiation of parotid tumours. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-five patients (42 women, 53 men; mean age 51.67±14.15) were included in this study. The study group consisted of 40 pl...

Background: Calyceal diverticulum is the cystic eventration of the upper urinary tract within the renal parenchyma which gives the first impression of a simple renal cyst therefore could easily be misdiagnosed. We conducted a study to assess the role of static-fluid magnetic resonance (MR) urography in the differentiation of renal parenchymal cyst...

Objectives To evaluate the diagnostic performance of MRI texture analysis (TA) for differentiation of pediatric craniofacial rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) from infantile hemangioma (IH).Methods This study included 15 patients with RMS and 42 patients with IH who underwent MRI before an invasive procedure.

Rotavirus is a leading cause of gastroenteritis in children under 5 years of age. It is known that neurological manifestations like seizures, encephalopathy and encephalitis can rarely be seen due to rotavirus infections. Cerebellar involvement is extremely rare. We present an uncommon neurological manifestation of rotavirus infection in a 4-year-o...

Acute cerebellitis is one of the most common cerebellar disorders and occurs due to para-infectious, post-infectious, or post-vaccination cerebellar inflammation. Herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) is known as a common infectious cause of sporadic encephalitis. Cerebellar involvement of HSV-1 is rare and almost always associated with meningoencephaliti...

Abdominal lymphangioma is a rare presentation of abdominal cystic lesions. They generally arise from small bowel mesentery.

Hydatid disease is a parasitic infection caused by Echinococcus granulosus. Although the liver and lung are the most common sites of hydatid disease, it can also be seen in other organs due to migration via systemic circulation. Pa- raspinal lumbar hydatid disease without the involvement of other organs is extremely rare. We aimed to present the im...

The name of Vertisol is derived from Latin "vertere" meaning to invert, thus limiting the development of classical soil horizons. These soils have the capacity to swell and shrink, inducing cracks in the upper parts of the soil and distinctive soil structure throughout the soil. The formation of these specific features are caused by a heavy texture...
