History Of

Incarcerated inguinal hernia is not an uncommon occurrence and the rate of incarceration in inguinal hernias has been variably reported between 3 and 16% with higher incidence among infants. Sigmoid colon as a content of hernia is itself an uncommon occurrence and associated impacted large and hard fecolith makes it a rare case in pediatric age group. Only single published case report could be found depicting these findings in young age group. Here we report 1-year-old child presented with 24 hours history of obstructed left-sided inguinal hernia. On exploration loop of sigmoid colon was identified with impacted fecolith.

Malignant rhabdoid tumor (MRT) of the mediastinum is an aggressive tumor that is extremely rare. To date, only 24 cases of the mediastinal MRT have been reported in adults and 9 cases in the pediatric age group under the age of 18 years. We report a rare case of such tumor and review the literature on its clinical and imaging features as well as its treatment and prognostic outcomes.

Transverse sacral fracture is a rare entity in the pediatric age group, primarily resulting from a fall from height. This case report stresses the importance of proper neurological assessment, adequate imaging and highlights different modalities of management of this fracture. We report a case of a 13-year-old child with type III Roy-Camille sacral fracture with associated bladder and bowel dysfunction. The patient underwent spinopelvic fixation and decompression of the sacral canal. The patient partially regained bowel and urinary function and had improved motor function after three months of follow-up. Operative management is generally advocated for such fractures.

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Uncontrolled use and abuse of topical steroids has led to increase in number of cases of superficial dermatophytosis of skin, hair and nail in pediatric age group as well. Our study aimed to analyse epidemiological and microbiological profile of steroid modified tinea (SMT) in pediatric age group.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> Clinically diagnosed tinea childhood patients with history of usage of topical steroids in children were included in our study. Detailed history was taken and clinical examination along with KOH mount and culture was done.<strong></strong></p><p class="abstract"><strong>Results:</strong> 112 patients were clinically diagnosed as tinea out of which 61cases gave the history of topical steroids and were included in our study. Most common age group was 12-18 years with female:male of ratio approximately 3:1 and disseminated and atypical form was the most common variety. KOH mount was positive in 73.2% cases and culture was positive in 69.6% cases. Most common species found out to be <em>Tinea mentagrophytes</em> followed by <em>Tinea rubrum</em>. Among non-dermatophyte group, <em>Candida</em> was the commonest.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Conclusions:</strong> There is rise in incidence of dermatophytosis, especially steroid modified, atypical and disseminated.</p>
