Article Synopsis
- The text discusses the various pathologic conditions that can occur in the orbital region, emphasizing the importance of categorizing them for better diagnosis.
- It suggests segmenting the orbit into compartments—intraconal, conal, and extraconal—to help radiologists identify common pathologies associated with each area.
- Additionally, the paper highlights the optic nerve sheath and lacrimal apparatus as separate compartments, and reviews clinical and imaging findings to assist in differentiating between similar lesions.
Osteolipoma is a rare benign variant of lipoma and constitutes less than 1% of all lipomas, presenting as a well-circumscribed painless mass. It is a tumor known to occur in several regions, usually intraosseous or adjacent to bone tissue, whose pathogenesis is still unclear. Imaging exams are useful in their evaluation and, mainly, in surgical planning, which consists of tumor excision.

Methods: This blinded prospective cohort study evaluated 23 preterm infants below 31 weeks of gestational age and 17 infants diagnosed with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy secondary to perinatal asphyxia, with gestational age greater than 36 weeks, monitored with amplitude-integrated electroencephalography in a public tertiary center from February 2014 to January 2015. Background activity (classified as continuous, discontinuous high-voltage, discontinuous low-voltage, burst-suppression, continuous low-voltage, or flat trace), presence of sleep-wake cycling, and presence of seizures were evaluated.
