    Abstract Several dermatologic concerns are known to disproportionally affect transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) adults, but little is known about dermatologic conditions in TGD youth. This study assesses the prevalence of acne, androgenic alopecia, scarring from gender-affirming procedures, and eczema in pediatric TGD patients seen at Boston Children's Hospital between April 2021 and April 2022. The results demonstrate that, for TGD youth, the studied dermatologic concerns are common, referral rates to dermatology are low, and acne is significantly associated with testosterone use. Future studies should examine additional dermatologic concerns and barriers to accessing dermatologic care for this historically underserved population.

    Abstract Macrocephaly, defined as a head circumference greater than 2 standard deviations above the mean, is a relatively common presenting symptom in the pediatric population at routine well-child examinations and a common indication for neuroimaging. Multiple imaging modalities are complementary in evaluating macrocephaly, including US, CT, and MRI. The differential diagnosis for macrocephaly is broad, and many disease processes lead to macrocephaly only when the sutures are open. In patients with closed sutures, these entities instead lead to increased intracranial pressure, according to the Monroe-Kellie hypothesis, which states that there is an equilibrium between intracranial constituents due to the fixed intracranial volume. The authors describe a useful paradigm for classifying macrocephaly by identifying which of the four components of the cranium (ie, cerebrospinal fluid, blood and vasculature, brain parenchyma, or calvarium) has an increased volume. Patient age, additional imaging findings, and clinical symptoms are also useful features. Most cases in the pediatric population are due to increased cerebrospinal fluid spaces, such as benign enlargement of the subarachnoid space, which must be carefully distinguished from subdural fluid collections in patients with accidental or nonaccidental trauma. Other common causes of macrocephaly are discussed, including hydrocephalus secondary to an aqueductal web, hemorrhage, or a neoplasm. The authors also provide information on some of the rarer diseases for which imaging may provide the impetus for genetic testing (eg, overgrowth syndromes and metabolic disorders).

    Abstract Cesarean section scar pregnancy (CSSP) is defined as abnormal implantation of a gestational sac on or in a previous cesarean section scar. There is an increasing incidence of detection of CSSP, likely in part due to the growing rates of cesarean deliveries and the improved rates of detection with advancing ultrasound technology. Diagnosis of CSSP is critical due to the potentially life-threatening complications to the mother if left untreated. Pelvic ultrasound is the imaging modality of choice in the initial evaluation of suspected CSSP, with MRI potentially useful if ultrasound findings are equivocal, or if confirmation is requested prior to definitive intervention. Early and accurate diagnosis of CSSP allows for prompt management to avoid severe complications and the potential to preserve the uterus and future fertility. A combination of medical and surgical treatment strategies may be needed with specific therapy tailored to each patient. Follow-up after treatment should include serial beta-hCG levels and possible repeat imaging if there is clinical concern for complications or treatment failure. This article will provide a comprehensive review of this uncommon but important phenomenon, detailing the pathophysiology and types of CSSP, imaging presentations, potential pitfalls in diagnosis, and management options.

    Abstract Background: Pediatric oncology patients undergoing cancer treatment can often have numerous and recalcitrant cutaneous warts due to their underlying immunosuppression. There are little published data on the optimal management of warts in pediatric oncology patients undergoing active cancer treatment compared to patients having completed treatment. Our objective was to analyze the clinical course of warts treated within this patient population at Boston Children's Hospital over a 10-year period.
    Methods: This was a single-institution retrospective study of 72 pediatric oncology patients from 1 September 2011 to 1 September 2021 who were treated for warts at Boston Children's Hospital. All patients had a diagnosis of cutaneous warts with at least one follow-up visit and were receiving active treatment for cancer either during or after concurrent treatment of their warts. We examined the modality and effectiveness of wart treatments while both on and offactive treatment of their cancer.
    Results: The median age was 12 years (range 4-18). Fifty-four percent of patients were documented to have plantar warts. Sixty percent of patients with a documented number of warts had more than five warts at presentation. For cases in which outcomes were specified, treatment resulted in complete resolution of warts in only 24.0% of patients undergoing active cancer treatment compared to 63.3% of patients not on active treatment. Warts persisted or worsened in 56.0% of patients undergoing active cancer treatment compared to only 13.4% of patients not on active treatment.
    Conclusion: These data may help guide clinicians in evaluating and treating warts in pediatric oncology patients.

    Abstract This case report describes a rare incident of fluid exhibiting retrograde flow from the nasopharynx through the nasolacrimal duct and accumulating within the eye guard while under general anesthesia. The patient was in a steep Trendelenburg position for several hours and received multiple liters of intravenous fluid. The patient did not have a history of sinusitis, sinus surgery, cocaine use, dacryostenosis and dacryocystitis, or nasolacrimal duct irrigation and probing. This case provides insight into the potential ophthalmic implications of surgical and anesthetic management. While the patient fortunately had no complications, this case also underscores the importance of intraoperative vigilance.

    Abstract Urticaria in infants can cause significant anxiety in parents, especially if a trigger cannot be identified. In a retrospective study of 246 infants seen for urticaria of unknown etiology at Boston Children's Hospital, 88.2% had resolution of urticaria within 6 weeks. The etiology of urticaria was ultimately established in 62.6% (72/115) of acute urticaria and 12.5% (2/16) of chronic urticaria cases with follow-up data. Pediatric healthcare providers can counsel families that while etiology of urticaria is never determined in over 40% of infants, symptoms are most likely to resolve spontaneously.
