Parsonage-Turner syndrome (PTS) is a peripheral neuropathy involving the brachial plexus very rare in childhood. To date, no cases of PTS after COVID-19 vaccination have been reported in children. We report a case of a 15-year-old boy affected by PTS after the second dose of the BNT162b2 (Comirnaty, Pfizer-BioNTech) COVID-19 vaccine.

Background And Objectives: The correlation between sagittal balance of the spine and clinical outcome after vertebroplasty (VP) in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF) is poorly investigated. We analysed the clinical outcome of patients with OVCF undergoing VP taking into account sagittal balance.

Methods: The primary endpoint was the change in axial back pain; disability and health-related quality of life using VAS, ODI and SF-36 respectively in correlation to the parameters that define sagittal balance (SVA).

We analysed the clinical outcome of patients with OVCF undergoing VP taking into account sagittal balance.

Material And Method: The primary endpoint was the change in axial back pain, disability and health-related quality-of-life using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and SF-36, respectively, in correlation to the parameters that define sagittal balance (SVA).

Dipygus or pygomelia is an incomplete form of twinning due to the incomplete division of the embryonic disc. This extremely rare condition consists in the presence of an accessory limb that generally inserts into the buttock or perineum. Associated anomalies such as duplication of the genitourinary or the intestinal tract are frequent, and recurrently appear associated with spinal anomalies such as congenital scoliosis due to hemivertebra.
