Attraction problems following magnet ingestion.

Ingestion of magnetic toys is associated with serious complications that can result in pressure necrosis and bowel perforation. We report three cases of multiple (more than two) magnet ingestion. In two patients, the symptoms did not resolve and complications of perforation and jejunocolic fistula occurred.

Septo-optic dysplasia with digital anomalies--a recurrent pattern syndrome.

A distinct form of septo-optic dysplasia (SOD) comprises limb malformations in addition to the characteristic CNS and ocular abnormalities. To date, there have been 4 reports, citing 5 affected patients with this combined phenotype. We now add a further case and present neuroradiological images of the CNS findings in this condition.
