Background Trigemino-autonomic cephalalgias are very rare disorders and even rarer in children and adolescents. We report the onset of paroxysmal hemicrania in a very young girl and reviewed the scientific literature for similar cases. Findings We describe the case of a 1.6-year-old girl with left-sided headache attacks fulfilling the criteria of paroxysmal hemicrania including prompt responsiveness to indomethacin. In addition, we detected at least two children for every trigemino-autonomic cephalalgias subtype with an age of under 7 years at the onset of the trigemino-autonomic cephalalgias. Remarkable features were a vast majority of chronic course from onset on and left-sided attacks. Conclusion Although very rare, trigemino-autonomic cephalalgias can occur even in very young children under the age of 6 years. This should be known in neuropaediatrics.

Metaphyseal Region

Nonossifying fibroma is a benign, lytic lesion that occurs in young children and adolescents. Radiographically, the lesion is multilocular and sharply demarcated. It often occurs at the metaphyseal region of long bones of the lower extremity and is usually eccentrically located. Four cases of nonossifying fibroma occurring during the past 7 years are presented with a review of the literature.

The Authors report a case of vesical hemangioma; it was typical for site and clinical presentation whereas the age of onset and gross appearance were atypical. A TUR biopsy was performed without complications, but did not confirm diagnosis. A partial cystectomy was performed. A one-year follow-up, negative for recurrence, confirmed this procedure as the definitive treatment of choice.

Scrotal Mass

Abstract Lipoblastoma is a tumor of adipose tissue that usually occurs in young children. Most lipoblastomas occur on the extremities, trunk, and head and neck, and most have rearrangements of the 8q region. We describe a lipoblastoma in a 12-month-old boy who presented with a rapidly enlarging scrotal mass. Electron microscopy revealed features consistent with immature adipocytes, and cytogenetic analysis revealed the following karyotype: 57,XY,+4,+6,+7,der(8)t(8;12) (q22;q13), +der(8)t(8;12) (q22;q13), +9,+10,+12,−16,+17,+der(18)t(8;18)(q22;q23),+19,+20. Interestingly, the breakpoint on chromosome 12 (q13) is the same as that seen in lipoblastomas. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of such a complex karyotype in lipoblastoma and adds to the expanding list of karyotypic abnormalities seen in such tumors.

Extramedullary Plasmocytoma

Abstract Solitary plasmacytoma and extramedullary plasmocytoma are tumors of malignant character composed of plasma cells, with a mean age of onset at 60 years. They can appear anywhere where the reticuloendothelial system is present. Usually these tumors lead to the development of multiple myeloma in a period of time ranging from 3 to 5 years. We present a rare case handled in our neurosurgery service associated with an unusually long period of evolution.

The first Canadian case of hepatitis E is described in a patient who travelled to Asia for a six-month period and spent most of his time in India. Hepatitis E shares some similarities with hepatitis A, notably the mode of transmission and the absence of chronic course. However, a few important differences have been noted, including a higher mortality rate and a high fatality rate in pregnant women. Hepatitis E is very common in developing countries and should be suspected more often in individuals with gastrointestinal complaints returning from endemic areas.
