    Abstract Objectives: Transcerebellar diameter (TCD) has been utilized prenatally as a tool to estimate gestational age (GA) when fetal growth aberrations are suspected. Traditionally, first trimester ultrasound (1TUS) has been the gold standard of dating a pregnancy in spontaneous pregnancies. We sought to determine if neonatal TCD measurement was as accurate as 1TUS in the estimation of postconceptual gestational age (PCGA).
    Methods: A retrospective cohort from a registry of high-quality transmastoid views of consecutive patients from July 2019 to November 2020, delivered from 24 to 34 weeks GA, and with a 1TUS were included. The reference PCGA was the sum of the GA at delivery by 1TUS and day of life. The PCGA by TCD was calculated from Chang et al for GA by TCD. Reference and experimental values were compared by correlation, agreement within 7 days, and Bland-Altman analysis.
    Results: Of the 154 individual patients in the registry of high-quality transmastoid views during the study period, 62 met inclusion and exclusion criteria. PCGA by 1TUS and TCD were highly correlated (r = 0.86, P < .001; κ = 47% agreement within 7 days of PCGA). The bias of PCGA by TCD was 4.6 days earlier than the PCGA by 1TUS (95% confidence interval of agreement: -29.2, 20).
    Conclusions: PCGA estimation by neonatal transmastoid TCD was highly correlated with that of 1TUS. It generally underestimates GA by 4.6 days. This relationship warrants further investigation to determine if this method of estimating PCGA in undated gestations is generalizable.

    Abstract Wunderlich syndrome (WS), which was named after Carl Wunderlich, is a rare clinical syndrome characterized by an acute onset of spontaneous renal hemorrhage into the subcapsular, perirenal, and/or pararenal spaces, without a history of antecedent trauma. Patients may present with a multitude of symptoms ranging from nonspecific flank or abdominal pain to serious manifestations such as hypovolemic shock. The classic symptom complex of flank pain, a flank mass, and hypovolemic shock referred to as the Lenk triad is seen in a small subset of patients. Renal neoplasms such as angiomyolipomas and clear cell renal cell carcinomas that display an increased proclivity for hemorrhage and rupture contribute to approximately 60%-65% of all cases of WS. A plethora of renal vascular diseases (aneurysms or pseudoaneurysms, arteriovenous malformations or fistulae, renal vein thrombosis, and vasculitis syndromes) account for 20%-30% of cases of WS. Rare causes of WS include renal infections, cystic diseases, calculi, kidney failure, and coagulation disorders. Cross-sectional imaging modalities, particularly multiphasic CT or MRI, are integral to the detection, localization, and characterization of the underlying causes and facilitate optimal management. However, large-volume hemorrhage at patient presentation may obscure underlying causes, particularly neoplasms. If the initial CT or MRI examination shows no contributary causes, a dedicated CT or MRI follow-up study may be warranted to establish the cause of WS. Renal arterial embolization is a useful, minimally invasive, therapeutic option in patients who present with acute or life-threatening hemorrhage and can help avoid emergency radical surgery. Accurate diagnosis of the underlying cause of WS is critical for optimal patient treatment in emergency and nonemergency clinical settings.

    Abstract Vein of Galen malformation (VGAM) results from an aneurysmal aberration with an arteriovenous shunting of blood. Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformations are the most frequent arteriovenous malformations in infants and fetuses. The congenital malformation develops during weeks 6-11 of fetal development. Infants often die from high-output congestive heart failure.

    Abstract A rare case of spontaneous splenic infarction with polysplenia and situs inversus is presented. The diagnosis was made by ultrasound and confirmed by CT which showed multiple aberrant right-sided spleens with situs inversus and one of the spleen showing low attenuation areas representing infarct. Polysplenia syndrome is a rare entity associated with heterotaxy syndromes, congenital cyanotic heart diseases, billiary atresia, intestinal malrotation, immotile cilia syndrome, annular or short pancreas, preduodenal portal vein and vena caval anomalies.

    Abstract Inversion of the uterus is a rare clinical problem. It is encountered as an obstetric emergency and is a diagnostic challenge in gynaecology. Non-puerperal inversion usually results from a tumour implanted on fundus of the uterus. Treatment depends on the associated pathology and the stage of the inversion. A rare case of non-puerperal uterine inversion caused by a large fundal submucous fibroid in a 58-year-old woman resulting in lower abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding was reported. After removal of fibroid, reduction of the inversion was successful and then abdominal hysterectomy was performed.

    Abstract Meningioma is the benign, unencapsulated neoplasm arising from meningo-epithelial arachnoid cells of cerebellopontine angle-internal auditory canal dura but extracranial meningiomas are very rare. In making the diagnosis of invasive meningioma, both changes of benign meningioma and invasive growth should be present. A case of the neglected invasive meningioma is described here which invaded approximately half of the fronto-temporo-parietal skull vault. The diagnosis was established and confirmed by the histopathology and immunohistochemistry, the cells were positive for epithelial membrane antigen, vimetin and progesterone receptors. The patient underwent surgical resection.

    Abstract "Introduction: Neonatal meningitis is most of the time remains undetected in all neonatal septicemias as they may not show any signs and symptoms of meningitis. This study was therefore set out to look for the neonatal meningitis in early and late onset neonatal septicemic patients. Material and Method: This is a cross sectional observational study done in a tertiary care hospital from October 2012 to august 2013 in 155 neonates. Preformed questionnaires were used to note sign of meningitis in babies with early or late onset septicemias. In all groups CSF examination was done to rule out meningitis. Result: Out of 155,28(18%) were in grp A (with meningeal signs)and 126(82%) were inGroup B(without any signs). It was found that all the patients having meningeal signs were having positive CSF while 58 (48%) newborn were having a positive CSF instead of no meningeal signs( p value significant). Mortality was high 21% in group A and was significantly low10% in group B due to early diagnosis. Conclusion: CSF is a septic screen diagnostic test for late onset septicemia and should be done in all high risk early onset septicemias are proven facts still it is not done at many centers.

    Abstract Heterotopic pregnancy is the simultaneous occurrence of intrauterine and extrauterine pregnancies. A 27-year-old third gravida with history of two ectopic pregnancies, presented with cramping pain in pelvis radiating to left side and bleeding from vagina. Ultrasonographic diagnosis of heterotopic pregnancy was put forward. Unfortunately intrauterine component of heterotopic pregnancy resulted in blighted ovum and linear salpingostomy was done for left-sided tubal pregnancy.

    Abstract Spontaneous gastric perforation is rare in children. It is usually associated with prematurity, foreign bodies and trauma. Anorexia nervosa (AN) can be an underlying condition although no cases are reported in the literature. We are reporting a rare case of 11-year-old boy with AN who presented with right iliac fossa pain mimicking acute appendicitis. Intraoperative findings proved a gastric perforation. Pathophysiology of this condition in AN is poorly understood. Gastric smooth muscle atrophy and ischaemia can be the possible underlying mechanisms. The case discussed here highlights the fact that any abdominal pain in patients with underlying eating disorders should raise suspicion of perforation as diagnosis can be far more complicated.
