A Case of Ophthalmoplegia, Hypotonia, and Developmental Delay in the Setting of Corpus Callosum Hypoplasia.

Anomalies of the corpus callosum, including complete agenesis, partial agenesis, and hypoplasia, are some of the most common brain malformations. Corpus callosum abnormalities are potentially syndromic, many of which have identifiable genetic etiologies. Patients affected with either syndromic or non-syndromic corpus callosum anomalies may also have associated ophthalmologic abnormalities.

A Delayed Diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder in the Setting of Complex Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) presents a diagnostic challenge due to its highly heterogeneous nature. The most common clinical manifestations include difficulty with social interaction and the presence of repetitive sensory-motor behaviors. Females are more likely to be misdiagnosed or have a delayed diagnosis compared to males.

Case of Treatment-Resistant Aggression in the Context of a Medically Underserved Community.

Aggression tends to decrease as a child matures and develops conflict resolution skills. However, aggression can persist if children are exposed to consistent negative stimuli, such as poor parenting and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). Furthermore, aggression is commonplace in numerous psychiatric disorders, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and oppositional defiant disorder.

Delayed Diagnosis of Osteogenesis Imperfecta: A Differential Diagnosis Guided by Competing Ocular Findings and a Lack of Family History.

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an inherited connective tissue disorder with variable clinical manifestations involving many structures and organ systems, leading to characteristic presentations such as low bone mineral density (BMD), vertebral compression fractures, hearing loss, and blue sclerae. Even within the same family, individuals with the same inherited genotype may have differential presentations due to variable expressivity. Early diagnosis of OI in the pediatric population may allow for earlier treatment and interprofessional interventions.
