Article Synopsis
  • Schizencephaly is a rare brain malformation caused by issues during cell migration, categorized into two types: "closed lips" (type I) and "open lips" (type II), which differ in the structure of the cleft.
  • Researchers analyzed data from 32 children with schizencephaly hospitalized between 1998 and 2011, revealing a range of ages at diagnosis and a high incidence of other CNS malformations alongside developmental and neurological issues like cerebral palsy and epilepsy.
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the primary diagnostic tool for recognizing schizencephaly and its associated abnormalities, and advancements in MRI technology are aiding in earlier detection.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to assess the prevalence of partial and complete rotator cuff tears in shoulder MRI images of patients with shoulder impingement syndrome and review relevant literature on the causes and classifications of these tears.
  • A total of 137 MRI examinations were analyzed, revealing that most injuries were partial tears of the supraspinatus tendon, with complete tears predominantly involving the same tendon.
  • Among the patients studied, a significant number experienced shoulder pain, with a notable difference in the types of injuries reported between men (more post-traumatic pain) and women (more non-traumatic pain).

Background: Isolated fibrous tumor of the pleura (SFTP - Solitary fibrous tumour of the pleura/localized fibrous tumour of the pleura) is a rare primary tumour of the pleura of mesenchymal origin. In most cases, it is a benign lesion. It is composed of spindle cells similar to fibroblasts and derives probably from submesothelial mesenchyme.

Background: Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography is a relatively noninvasive technique of biliary and pancreatic duct imaging. MRCP technique utilizes T2-weighted sequences, in which bile is characterized by high signal intensity, whilst signal intensity of surrounding tissues is reduced. The purpose of this publication was to assess the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography in the diagnostics of biliary dilatation.
