Ectopic Unilateral Ear Pit in an Otherwise Well-Appearing Child: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Ear pits are a common congenital abnormality that is incidentally found on routine examinations. However, it is not well documented how many are found outside of their classical location or if these ectopic locations put patients at increased risk of having a hearing impairment, renal anomalies, genetic syndromes, or infection. Clinicians should be aware of the current guidelines for recognizing, screening, and evaluating for these risks in patients with ear pits, regardless of location.

Electronic Personal Health Records for Childhood Cancer Survivors: An Exploratory Study.

Childhood cancer survivors have complex healthcare needs that may be effectively communicated using electronic personal health records. This study explores the knowledge, interest, and attitudes of a sample of survivors and some of their caregivers towards electronic personal health records (ePHRs). This descriptive study was conducted in a pediatric hematology-oncology clinic and associated survivorship clinic with a convenience sample of caregivers of survivors who were <14 years old and survivors ≥14 years old along with their caregivers when present.
