Postmortem ultrasonography of the macerated fetus complements autopsy following in utero fetal demise.

Postmortem evaluation following an in utero fetal demise is essential for determining cause of death and counseling regarding future pregnancies. Severe maceration and fetal size along with patient desires may limit the physician's ability to perform a complete autopsy. In the cases presented, we demonstrate the utility of postmortem ultrasonography as an adjunct to traditional autopsy following fetal demise.

Presentation of ileal Burkitt lymphoma in children.

Burkitt lymphoma is a highly aggressive form of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma that responds favorably if diagnosed accurately and treated early. Recognition of the various radiologic manifestations of Burkitt lymphoma can help guide the clinician to expedite appropriate chemotherapy. We present two cases that illustrate different radiologic presentations of this aggressive gastrointestinal malignancy in children.

Delayed presentation of complete pancreatic ductal transection in children: management of two cases without resection.

Pancreatic ductal injuries in children are rare, and ductal transections presenting in a delayed or subacute fashion are seldom reported. We describe two cases of traumatic pancreatic ductal transection secondary to physical abuse, both of which presented late to medical care. Both were managed successfully without pancreatic resection.
