Background: Pediatric penetrating brain injuries (PBIs) are rare but critical traumatic events, often involving foreign objects. This report will emphasize the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment strategies for pediatric PBI cases.
Case Description: This report presents a case of a 7-year-old male patient with a PBI resulting from a nail that penetrated the left mastoid region following a fall from a tree.
A Method to Reduce the Occurrence of Egg Translucency and Its Effect on Bacterial Invasion.

Translucent egg consumption is low due to consumer acceptance and quality concerns, which is a problem that egg producers need to address. This study was performed to evaluate the reasons for the high occurrence of egg translucency in summer, as well as whether the addition of mono-dicalcium phosphate (MDCP) to the diet can relieve eggshell translucency and whether eggshell translucency is associated with the risk of bacterial invasion. A total of 72 laying hens that were 36 weeks old were randomly divided into control (CON) and MDCP groups and fed in the same environment.

Given the abundance of vital neurovascular structures, gunshot wounds (GSWs) to the posterior fossa are generally fatal. We present a unique such case where a bullet entered the petrous bone, traversed the cerebellar hemisphere and overlying tentorial leaflet, and reached the dorsal aspect of the midbrain, resulting in transient cerebellar mutism with an unexpectedly favorable functional recovery. A 17-year-old boy sustained a GSW to the left mastoid region with no exit wound and presented with agitation and confusion, ultimately leading to a coma.

We report the rare occurrence of a temporal glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) showing transdural tumor extension into adjacent mastoid cells. As the dura mater provides a barrier to intraaxial tumors, GBM seldom penetrates into the skull base, even though it is a high-grade astrocytoma with a tendency to spread. Yet, some mechanisms of GBM-induced skull invasion have been identified, making this entity a very rare but nonetheless relevant differential diagnosis in otherwise ambiguous cases of an intracerebral tumor extending into the skull base.
