Late-onset retroperitoneal hemorrhage from renal intraparenchymal pseudoaneurysm (RIP) following a kidney biopsy is an extremely rare complication but should not be ignored, especially in high-risk populations. Here, we introduce a 32-year-old Caucasian female who presented with sudden-onset left-sided flank pain. She had recently been diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and had undergone a computed tomography (CT)-guided core needle biopsy of the left kidney 9 days earlier.

Our aim was to characterize parent-proxy and child-reported health status in children following unilateral arterial ischemic stroke or intraparenchymal hemorrhage.
Methods: Fifty-nine children 2-18 years (30 girls, 29 boys) with unilateral arterial ischemic stroke or spontaneous intraparenchymal hemorrhage at least 6 months before evaluation were enrolled from a single center.

Objective: Few data regarding causes and outcomes of haemorrhagic stroke (HS) in term neonates are available. We characterised risk factors, mechanism and short-term outcomes in term and late preterm neonates with acute HS.
Design: Prospective cohort.
Numbers are conceptualized spatially along a horizontal mental line. This view is supported by mounting evidence from healthy adults and patients with unilateral spatial neglect. Little is known about children's representation of numbers with respect to space.
