Skull pathologies on Xrays
This document provides an overview of skull pathologies that can be detected on plain skull radiographs. It begins by listing the major indications for skull radiographs, such as dysplasias, trauma, infections, and tumors. It then describes the approach to interpreting skull X-rays, categorizing abnormalities into density changes, contour abnormalities, intracranial volume changes, calcifications, bone thickness changes, lucent defects, sclerotic areas, and more. Specific pathologies are then discussed in-depth within each category. In summary, the document serves as a guide for radiologists to recognize and understand various skull abnormalities visible on plain radiographs.
Basic approach to brain tumor
The document discusses the systematic approach to characterizing brain tumors on MRI. It describes three main steps: detection, localization, and characterization. Localization involves determining if a tumor is intra-axial or extra-axial based on signs like a CSF cleft between the brain and lesion. Characterization includes assessing features like enhancement pattern, border definition, and presence of necrosis to differentiate tumor types such as meningioma, schwannoma, glioma, and metastasis. The references provided give further information on diagnostic criteria.
Brain tumors & Stem Cell Transplantation
Historically, brain tumors have been treated with neurosurgical resection and radiation therapy. Demonstration of the efficacy of chemotherapy has lagged behind that for most other types of tumors, but currently chemotherapy is being employed more frequently. Recognition of the chemo-sensitivity of many types of brain tumors, in conjunction with the still relatively guarded prognoses of many of these patients, has also logically led to exploration of the use of hematopoietic cell support as a means of increasing dose intensity.
21. evaluation of neck swellings kk

For each condition, the document describes location, symptoms, diagnostic tests, and surgical management approaches.
Classification of brain tumors AND MANAGEMENT OG LOW GRADE GLIOMA
Low grade gliomas include diffuse astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, and oligoastrocytomas. They typically present with seizures and slowly progress. MRI is used to identify the location and extent of involvement. Treatment involves surgical resection when possible followed by monitoring as recurrence is common but progression to higher grades is slow.
Syringomyelia
Syringomyelia is a condition where a cyst, called a syrinx, develops in the spinal cord. It most commonly affects the lower cervical spine. It is often associated with abnormalities of the skull or spinal column. The majority of cases are linked to Chiari malformation type 1, where the cerebellar tonsils are displaced into the spinal canal. Symptoms vary depending on the location of the syrinx but can include pain, loss of sensation, muscle weakness or atrophy, and autonomic dysfunction. Diagnosis is made using imaging like MRI. Treatment involves surgery to decompress pressure on the spinal cord like laminectomy with the goal of resolving the syrinx.
Approach to Macro and Microcephaly
This document discusses approaches to macrocephaly and microcephaly. Macrocephaly is defined as a head circumference over 2 standard deviations above the mean, while microcephaly is under 3 standard deviations below the mean. Causes of macrocephaly include genetic factors, hydrocephalus, tumors, and metabolic disorders. Hydrocephalus results from abnormal CSF accumulation and can be obstructive or communicating. Microcephaly can be primary/genetic due to syndromes or secondary from infections, drugs, or hypoxia that impact brain development prenatally or in the first two years. Evaluation and treatment depends on the underlying cause.
Neural tube defects and Craniosynostosis
This document discusses various congenital anomalies that affect the central nervous system, including neural tube defects (NTDs) such as spina bifida occulta, meningocele, meningomyelocele, encephalocele, and anencephaly.

Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.
