Non-iatrogenic trauma of the iliac artery is rarely reported but is always life-threatening. In this report, we describe the case of a child with complete transection and partial disappearance of the iliac artery caused by bicycle handlebar impalement. He experienced catastrophic hemorrhage, malignant arrhythmia, and difficulty in exploring transected vessel stumps.

Effective and safe management strategies are essential in such cases.
Case Presentation: We report a case series involving four Chinese neonates with life-threatening LMs, initially treated with oral sirolimus.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the CT and MRI characteristics of hairy polyps, predominantly described in previous case reports, to better understand their imaging features and associated conditions.
- In reviewing 14 patients, the research revealed a significant female-to-male ratio, with the majority of masses originating from the back of the soft palate and showing a common appearance of pedicled masses with fat and soft tissue.
- The findings indicate that while hairy polyps typically exhibit certain imaging traits, variations can occur, and they may be linked to other congenital issues; CT and MRI are effective diagnostic tools in these cases.
Background: Communicating bronchopulmonary foregut malformation is a rare anomaly characterized by a patent congenital communication between the esophagus or stomach and an isolated portion of the respiratory system. An esophagogram is taken as the gold standard for diagnosis. Compared with esophagography, computed tomography (CT) is more widely used and easily obtained, but CT findings have been described as nonspecific.

Purpose: To evaluate MRI findings of CPSF and interobserver reliability.
