This paper reviews the types of surgical and nonsurgical treatment modalities that have been used to treat the classic intraosseous ameloblastoma of the jaws. The clinical, anatomic and biologic factors that may influence the clinicians' selection of a particular treatment modality were highlighted. Surgeons should be aware of these different modalities if they are to formulate a surgical treatment plan that is individualised to fit different clinical situations.

ELMO2-related intraosseous vascular malformation: new cases with novel pathogenic variants, clinical follow-up and therapeutic approaches.
Eur J Hum Genet

Center for Rare Diseases Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital Cologne, Cologne, Germany.
Primary intraosseous vascular malformation (VMPI, #606893) is an ultra-rare disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in ELMO2. To date, only six families with pathogenic ELMO2 variants causing a VMPI phenotype have been described. VMPI is characterized by vascular malformations that compress the facial bones, often leading to life-threatening complications, such as massive bleeding and intracranial herniation.

Glomus tumour is a painful small tumour of the glomus body commonly located under the nail bed. The aim of this study is to evaluate the correlation of clinical diagnosis with MRI findings, determine the prevalence of the tumour at different subungual locations and determine the differences in outcomes (if any) between a longitudinal and a transverse nail bed incision for excision of the tumour. This retrospective study of 56 subungual glomus tumour was conducted from May 2010 to December 2021.

Background And Importance: With the exception of the 3 classic shunt placement options (ventriculoperitoneal, ventriculopleural, and ventriculoatrial), surgically feasible alternative sites for distal catheter placement remain limited and often require the assistance of an access surgeon. Tubbs et al suggested the possibility of intraosseous cerebrospinal fluid diversion in the ilium, noting that ilium infusion in cadaveric specimens was possible without the development of body edema or fluid overflow. Since this publication, limited case reports have been published on the success of ventriculo-ilium (VI) shunt placement.

Audience: The target audience for this small group session is post-graduate year (PGY) 1-4 emergency medicine (EM) residents, pediatric EM (PEM) fellows, and medical students.
Introduction: Pediatric emergency department visits have been declining since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to decreased exposure to pediatric emergency care for EM residents and other learners in the ED.1 This is a major problem, given that the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) mandates that a minimum of 20% of patient encounters or five months of training time for EM residents must occur with pediatric patients, with at least 50% of that time spent in the ED setting.

Objective: To describe the imaging features of primary intraosseous meningiomas (PIMs) to aid an accurate diagnosis.
Methods: Clinical materials and radiological data for 9 patients with pathologically confirmed PIMs were reviewed comprehensively.
Results: Most lesions involved inner and outer plates of the calvaria and all were relatively well circumscribed.
