Even though it is an extremely rare phenomenon, the initial suspicion and detection of calvarial lymphoma are paramount to establishing a correct diagnosis which helps to determine an appropriate management strategy. We present an illustrative rare case of primary calvarial lymphoma along with a literature review focusing on the best management strategy for this rare entity.

- The study focused on human bocavirus infections, which can range from mild symptoms to severe respiratory issues, and often co-occur with other viruses.
- Researchers reviewed medical records of 157 children, finding that common symptoms included cough, runny nose, and fever, with bocavirus detected in about 12.66% of cases.
- The analysis highlighted age and radiograph differences between bocavirus-infected and non-infected groups, suggesting that patients with multiple viral infections experienced more severe symptoms, which could inform future clinical practices.
Background: The goal of this study is to show the feasibility and benefits of using the simultaneous biportal endoscopic procedure to treat pineal tumors in patients with obstructive hydrocephalus.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed three patients with pineal tumors and acute obstructive hydrocephalus who were treated in one session with a frameless stereotactic guided simultaneous biportal endoscopic third ventriculostomy and endoscopic tumor biopsy performed through two separate ports using one rigid ventriculoscope.
Results: In the three patients, ventriculostomy and endoscopic biopsies were conducted.
