Pontine Tegmental Cap Dysplasia (PTCD) is a rare hindbrain malformation characterized by cranial nerve dysfunction, cerebellar abnormalities, and developmental delays of varying severity. This case report presents a 12-month-old female with significant developmental delays, hypotonia, and cranial nerve abnormalities. The findings underscore the critical role of radiology and neuroimaging in diagnosing and managing PTCD.

Article Synopsis
  • Regenerative endodontic treatment offers a promising method for healing damaged tooth structures and supporting root development, but the changes in tooth morphology over time are not well understood.
  • A study monitored 58 patients over five years, revealing a 100% survival rate and a 94.4% success rate, with most cases showing signs of vital tissue and significant changes in root structure within the first 20 months.
  • The findings indicate that the presence of a calcific bridge is a good sign of treatment success and that understanding the timeline of root maturation can help improve patient follow-up and care strategies.

Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive diagnostic tool that is commonly used to visualize soft tissues and anatomical structures. Many patients who undergo MRI scans experience anxiety. This multicenter study was conducted to assess anxiety levels experienced by patients who underwent MRI scans in the Palestinian radiology departments and identify the risk factors associated with higher levels of anxiety experienced by the patients.

is a leading cause of invasive bacterial infections in the pediatric population. In general, data surrounding the use of newly approved antimicrobials within children are lacking. Dalbavancin is a long-acting lipoglycopeptide that shows promise for off-label use in adults given its unique pharmacokinetics and in vitro potency against common Gram-positive isolates; however, evidence to supports its use in children is limited.
