From the inside out: oculocerebrocutaneous syndrome without dermatological manifestations.

Delleman-Oorthuys or oculocerebrocutaneous syndrome (OCCS) is an extremely rare condition which relies on three pillars of manifestations: ophthalmological, neurological, and dermatological. It was first described by Delleman and Oorthuys in 1981, and since then, very few other cases have been reported. We report the case of a 13-month-old boy, referred to an ophthalmological tertiary service for investigation of a microglobe with a cystic retrobulbar mass on translucency test.

EVALUATION OF THE RADIATION EXPOSURE IN SEQUENTIAL HEAD TOMOGRAPHIC EXAMS OF PATIENTS WITH TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY AND DECOMPRESSIVE CRANIECTOMY.

Brain trauma patients who underwent decompressive craniectomy make several computed tomography (CT) scans until cranioplasty. Despite several recommendations to avoid unnecessary radiological exposure, few studies systematically analyzed the technical parameters employed. CT exams of 14 patients were retrospectively analyzed to find display field of view (DFOV), dose length product (DLP), volume computed tomography dose index (CTDIvol) and effective dose (ED).

Prostate imaging reporting and data system correlation with Gleason score: Pathological aspects of magnetic resonance imaging findings.

Objective: Prostate cancer has a high prevalence and mortality, being the most diagnosed urologic cancer. Prostatic magnetic resonance imaging showed high sensitivity in the detection of clinically significant neoplasia and agreement with the Gleason score. Therefore, we attempted to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the prostate imaging reporting and data system, using biopsy and prostatectomy as the reference standard.
