Intraneural Peroneal Ganglion Cyst Excision in a Pediatric Patient: A Case Report.

Case: A 14-year-old female presented with a profound foot drop after trauma to the right leg. Clinical examination and electrodiagnostic studies demonstrated a dense palsy of the common peroneal nerve. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an intraneural peroneal ganglion cyst at the fibular neck.

Bilateral anterior hip dislocation in a child with Aarskog syndrome: a case report.

Both Aarskog syndrome and atraumatic anterior hip dislocation are rare entities. Aarskog syndrome is an X-linked recessive disorder with facial, digital, and genital anomalies and is associated with varying degrees of ligamentous laxity. This is believed to be the only known reported case of bilateral anterior voluntary dislocating hips in an ambulatory child and the only reported case of hip dislocation in a child with Aarskog syndrome.

Three-dimensional evaluation of intra- and interfraction immobilization of lung and chest wall using active breathing control: a reproducibility study with breast cancer patients.

Purpose: A CT-based three-dimensional (3D) method was used to analyze the intra- and interfraction reproducibility of lung immobilization during moderate deep inspiration breath hold (mDIBH), defined as 75% of the maximal inspiration using an active breathing control (ABC) apparatus.

Methods And Materials: The ABC apparatus was used to immobilize the breathing motion with a computer-controlled valve. Immobilization of the lungs in breast cancer patients was used as a model to evaluate the reproducibility of mDIBH using the ABC apparatus.
