Interventricular neurocytoma: radiologic features and review of the literature.

Destroyed Lung Syndrome (DLS) is total lung destruction from recurrent and chronic infections especially Tuberculosis (TB). It is rare in children and associated with chronic morbidity. It presents with chronic cough, progressive difficulty in breathing, hemoptysis and progressive respiratory failure. The pathology of DLS includes lung fibrosis, collapse, tracheal and mediastinal shift. We report the case of a 9 years old girl referred after three courses of anti-TB treatment for suspected TB reinfection with worsening clinical and radiologic features. Investigations revealed a destroyed right lung. Genexpert was initially positive and subsequently along with TB culture was negative. She improved on antibiotics and chest physiotherapy. Destroyed lung though rare in children should be considered in those who despite TB treatment present with worsening clinical and radiologic features. Early diagnosis and multi- disciplinary approach will prevent irreversible lung damage.

Radiologic Features

Abstract INTRODUCTION Low grade B-cell lymphomas arising from the marginal zone of secondary lymphatic follicles constitute less than 10% of lymphomas. This condition was initially described in the stomach and the nasopharynx. However, there have been several reports of isolated dural-based intracranial lesions. METHODS A review of the literature using the EMBASE and MEDLINE databases yielded 12 previous cases of dural MALT lymphomas but none that were entirely intra-parenchymal. RESULTS Here, we present the case of a 67 year male who was found to have a convexity meningioma; and another, intra-parenchymal, lesion with radiologic features consistent with a low grade glial tumor. Upon resection of both lesions, the intra-axial tumor was found to be a mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. He has subsequently been referred for initiation of needing adjuvant therapies. CONCLUSIONS In addition to posing challenges for radiologic diagnosis, this case presents questions regarding the oncologic management of MALT lesions in the brain.

Screening Assessment

Purpose We conducted a systematic review of the literature regarding adult telepractice services (screening, assessment, and treatment) from approximately 2014 to 2019. Method Thirty-one relevant studies were identified from a literature search, assessed for quality, and reported. Results Included studies illustrated feasibility, efficacy, diagnostic accuracy, and noninferiority of various speech-language pathology services across adult populations, including chronic aphasia, Parkinson's disease, dysphagia, and primary progressive aphasia. Technical aspects of the equipment and software used to deliver services were discussed. Some general themes were noted as areas for future research. Conclusion Overall, results of the review continue to support the use of telepractice as an appropriate service delivery model in speech-language pathology for adults. Strong research designs, including experimental control, across multiple well-described settings are still needed to definitively determine effectiveness of telepractice services.
