Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a useful technique of studying soft tissues of the body, can be very effective in assessing the integrity of tendons. Usually a patient with a complete tear of the posterior tibial tendon has characteristic physical findings. In the patient presented, MRI demonstrated a complete disruption of the posterior tibial tendon, despite the absence of the commonly associated clinical findings. In view of the difficulties encountered with attempted tenography of the completely torn posterior tibial tendon, MRI provides a sensitive alternative diagnostic technique.

AbstractThe most common benign cardiac tumours are the myxomas, the rhabdomyomas, and the fibromas, with the latter 2 variants being the most common tumours encountered in children. The size and location of tumours within the heart create a variety of clinical findings, such as murmurs, chest pain, tachyarrythmias, and congestive cardiac failure. Nowadays, the tumours are usually diagnosed by echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging and cardiac catheterization. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice if the tumour causes either arrhythmia or cavitary obstruction. In this report, we describe a giant ventricular fibroma co-existing with an atrial septal defect in a girl aged 15 years.

Osteopetrosis is a rare hereditary bone dysplasia of heterogeneous pathophysiology in which failure of osteoclastic bone resorption leads to increased bone mass, which has poor mechanical properties. Patients present in childhood with complaints of bone pains, failure to thrive and growth retardation. Other clinical findings include severe anemia, hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy and thrombocytopenia. The dense, extremely brittle bones fracture easily. Involvement of the cranium can lead to optic nerve atrophy with blindness or other cranial nerve defects. The diagnosis is primarily radiographic and may be supported by computed tomography scan. We are reporting a case of a 4-year-old boy who presented with blindness since the age of 6 months and the diagnosis of osteopetrosis was suggested on magnetic resonance imaging.
