Navigating the neurovascular maze of trigeminal neuralgia.

Tic douloureux, also known as trigeminal neuralgia, is distinguished by recurrent episodes of severe, lancinating pain that affects one or more branches of the trigeminal nerve, representing a prevalent pain syndrome. This condition has an annual incidence rate of 27 per 100,000 individuals. Nevertheless, direct compression caused by vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia (VBD) represents a considerably less frequent etiology of trigeminal neuralgia, with an estimated overall incidence of about 1%.

Navigating diagnostic uncertainty in fahr's disease: a case report with neuroimaging correlations.

Fahr's disease is a rare neurological disorder which is characterized by the presence of abnormal, symmetrical, and bilateral calcifications within the basal ganglia and other cerebral areas. Seizures are 1 of the symptoms that may aid in its diagnosis. Fahr's disease is diagnosed in adults mostly.

Challenging the giant: A case report on a huge sacrococcygeal chordoma and its radiological insights.

Sacral chordoma is a rare osseous tumor of malignant origin. Remnants of the notochord in the region of sacrum and coccyx is said to be the origin of these tumors. Patients generally have delayed presentation, which is responsible for larger tumor size.

Venolymphatic malformation (VLM) manifestation in the knee: An uncommon encounter.

An uncommon congenital disorder known as venolymphatic malformation (VLM) of the knee develops from improper venous and lymphatic system development. It is a specific kind of vascular abnormality that affects lymphatic and veins, causing abnormal growth and dilation of these vessels. These types of malformations do not directly connect to the main channels but instead appear as swelling or other characteristic features depending on the specific type of malformation.

A rare case of solitary intraosseous neurofibroma of the mandible with radiological insights.

Neurofibromas (NF), rare benign peripheral nerve sheath tumors, are typically linked to neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). This case report presents a rare instance of a neurofibroma located in the mandible of a 12-year-old male patient, who presented with localized swelling and discomfort in the lower jaw. Clinical examination revealed a firm, nontender mass on palpation.

Towards Explainable Detection of Alzheimer's Disease: A Fusion of Deep Convolutional Neural Network and Enhanced Weighted Fuzzy C-Mean.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive decline, posing a significant challenge for individuals and society. Early detection and treatment are essential for effective disease management.

Objective: The objective of this research is to develop a novel and interpretable deep learning model for rapid and accurate Alzheimer's disease detection, incorporating Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) techniques.

Role of Multidetector Computed Tomography Urography in Evaluating Obstructive Uropathy in a Tertiary Hospital in Rural India.

Introduction: This study aims to evaluate the role of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) urography in cases of obstructive uropathy to determine the cause, side, site, and level of obstruction and to differentiate between acute and chronic cases of obstructive uropathy based on imaging features.

Methods: Using Cochran's formula, a sample size of 121 patients was calculated. The patients underwent computed tomography (CT) urography to assess the obstructing agents causing obstructive uropathy.

Acute Fulminant Viral Cerebellitis With Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy in a Male Child.

Acute cerebellitis is a rare inflammatory process affecting the cerebellum, commonly seen in the pediatric population following primary or secondary infection. Since the condition presents with a broad spectrum of clinical symptoms, radiological investigations, preferably magnetic resonance imaging, become essential in diagnosing it and planning further management. In this article, we discuss a case of a child presenting with a severe form of acute cerebellitis and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy secondary to brainstem compression.

Imaging the Double Bubble: A Case of Duodenal Atresia Detected in Late Pregnancy.

Duodenal atresia is a rare congenital gastrointestinal obstruction, usually recognized by a prominent "double bubble" sign on prenatal imaging. This case report presents a diagnosis of duodenal atresia in a fetus in the third trimester. The mother presented late for an antenatal ultrasound, which revealed the classic "double bubble" sign.

Imaging of persistent bilateral occipital sinus with absent bilateral transverse sinus.

Persistent occipital sinus with absent/ hypoplastic bilateral transverse sinus is an extremely rare finding in adults; less than 10 cases have been reported. We present a case of a 28-year-old male who was brought to the emergency department in a post-ictal state associated with blurring of vision and 1 vomiting episode. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with angiography and venography of the brain was advised, and the brain parenchyma was found to be anatomically normal.

A Study of the Role of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Evaluation of T2-Weighted Hyperintensities in Spinal Cord in a Tertiary Care Hospital in Central India.

Background T2-weighted hyperintensities in the spinal cord are crucial markers for diagnosing a range of spinal cord pathologies. This study explores the prevalence, causes, and implications of these hyperintensities in patients with spinal cord injuries at a tertiary care hospital in Central India. The research aims to assess the utility of MRI in detecting T2-weighted hyperintensities in the spinal cord and to analyze the associated clinical and radiological characteristics.

MRI Findings of Acute on Chronic Osteomyelitis of Tibia in a 12-Year-Old Child.

Pediatric patients with osteomyelitis, a serious bone infection, have several difficulties. A 12-year-old child with an acute osteomyelitis diagnosis is the subject of this case study. The child had decreased limb function, a fever, and localized pain.

Ovarian Torsion Leading to Necrosis: A Case Report of Acute Abdominal Pain in a 25-Year-Old Female.

Ovarian torsion is a critical gynecological emergency that presents with sudden-onset abdominal pain and requires immediate intervention to prevent irreversible ovarian damage. This case report describes a 25-year-old female who presented with acute right lower quadrant pain, which had escalated to excruciating levels over the past 45 minutes, accompanied by persistent nausea and vomiting. She had no fever, vaginal bleeding, or dysuria, and her urine pregnancy test was negative.

Atypical Presentation of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in a Chronic Alcoholic: Diagnostic Challenges and Therapeutic Approach.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a primary malignancy of the liver, often arising in the context of chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. This case report describes the clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, and therapeutic intervention of a 72-year-old male with a long-standing history of alcohol use who presented with right hypochondrial pain. A 72-year-old male with a 20-year history of alcohol consumption presented with a one-month history of dull, aching pain in the right hypochondrium.

This case report highlights the understanding of the swelling feature of the right knee in a young adult and gives an overview of bone tumors. We are presenting a case of right knee swelling in a 13-year-old boy who was anxious before the investigations. Additionally, this report provides an approach for an accurate diagnosis of swelling.
