The olfactory neuroblastoma is a rare malignant neoplasm derived from the olfactory neuroepithelium. It can metastasize to cervical lymph node chains and distant organs through hematogenous or lymphatic routes. Two clinical cases are presented: the first, a 56-year-old man with no pathological history, exhibited symptoms evolving over 2 months, characterized by persistent rhinorrhea with frequent epistaxis, ipsilateral proptosis, left hemicranial pain, anosmia, and dysgeusia.

This retrospective study assessed anatomical characteristics of cervicomedullary compression in children with achondroplasia. Twelve anatomical parameters were analyzed (foramen magnum diameter and area; myelon area; clivus length; tentorium and occipital angles; brainstem volume outside the posterior fossa; and posterior fossa, cerebellum, supratentorial ventricular system, intracranial cerebrospinal fluid, and fourth ventricle volumes) from sagittal and transversal T1- and T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans from 37 children with achondroplasia aged ≤ 4 years (median [range] 0.8 [0.

VPS patients should be observed for atypical indicators and manifestations that could suggest the presence of such complications, even in the lack of traditional clinical signs of peritonitis or bowel perforation.
Abstract: Placing an intracranial shunt, may be a reasonable approach to decrease the complications of hydrocephalus and it can be done either simultaneous to cranioplasty or not.

Article Synopsis
- - Frontoethmoidal encephalocele is a condition where part of the brain and its protective membranes push through a defect in the skull, usually forming a noticeable swelling on the nose or face, and may be linked to other facial abnormalities.
- - There are significant surgical and medical concerns, particularly in neonates, including challenges like airway obstruction, potential fluid leaks leading to imbalances, infection risks, and increased intracranial pressure.
- - The condition is more prevalent in low-income areas and is often undiagnosed before birth; the case discussed highlights an extreme instance where the swelling interfered with normal ventilation due to its extensive size.
