Pathology Reports

Wilms’ tumor is the most frequent renal malignancy in childhood with the highest incidence per year, approximately 7,8 cases per 1.000.000in children under 15 years-old and frequently occurred in 2-5 years of age (highest incidences in 3 years-old). There are many differential diagnosis of intra-abdominal tumors and the correct differential diagnosis are detrimental to the prescribed treatments for the patients.Medical imaging along with pathology reports is a precise way to determine the appropriate diagnosis and treatment. Imaging gives information about tumor extension and distant metastasis, especially useful for indicating pre-operative chemotherapy.

AbstractObjectivesTo describe challenges in diagnosis and treatment of congenital neonatal gangrene lesions associated with history of maternal coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection.Case presentationA preterm neonate was born with upper extremity necrotic lesions and a history of active maternal COVID-19 infection. The etiology of his injury was challenging to deduce, despite extensive hypercoagulability work-up and biopsy of the lesion. Management, including partial forearm salvage and hand amputation is described.ConclusionsNeonatal gangrene has various etiologies, including compartment syndrome and intrauterine thromboembolic phenomena. Maternal COVID-19 can cause intrauterine thrombotic events and need to be considered in a differential diagnosis.

Objective:To present the case of an 18-year-old collegiate decathlete with a Salter-Harris type I epiphyseal plate fracture of the proximal humerus.Background:A collegiate decathlete was playing flag football and fell on an outstretched arm. He was taken to the emergency room and diagnosed with a type I epiphyseal plate fracture.Differential Diagnosis:AC sprain, dislocation or subluxation, rotator cuff tear, labral tear.Treatment:Active and passive range of motion exercises were completed after two days of immobilization. He then started strengthening exercises and returned to competitive activity in 10 weeks.Uniqueness:Proximal humeral epiphyseal plate fractures are uncommon injuries, especially in athletes over the age of 15.Conclusions:If an accurate diagnosis is made, an appropriate conservative rehabilitation program can be implemented to safely return an athlete to participation without permanent deformity following a type I Salter-Harris fracture.
