It is crucial to realize that both omental infarction and acute appendicitis can occur simultaneously in the children as both diseases are managed differently. Omental infarction itself is rare in the pediatric group, and its association with acute appendicitis is even rarer. Both diseases usually present with right sided abdominal pain. Ultrasound is the choice of imaging modality in the investigation of abdominal pain in the children. It should not be content if omental infarction is detected, whilst the normal appendix is not seen. We reported a case of simultaneous omental infarction and acute appendicitis in a child who presented with 3 days history of right sided abdominal pain. It was diagnosed preoperatively by ultrasound. Prompt surgical intervention was proceeded and the child made uneventful recovery.

“Enlarged parietal foramina” is a congenital malformation with autosomal dominant inheritance. The condition is usually self-limiting and doesn’t require any treatment. However, it may also be associated with encephalocele, vascular anomalies or may be a part of syndrome. We present a case of enlarged parietal foramina in a child and discuss its imaging findings and the associated intracranial vascular malformations.

There are few documented cases of bradycardia or asystole occurring during Onyx embolization of intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs), although these events are more commonly observed in open neurosurgical procedures, particularly those involving the skull base. We present a case treated for a ruptured paramedian occipital DAVF. During the administration of Squid into the middle meningeal artery, while balloons were inflated in the large occipital arteries bilaterally to control the flow during embolization of the DAVF, the patient experienced an abrupt episode of sinus bradycardia, which recurred after a second injection of Squid. After temporarily halting the injections and deflating the balloons, a third injection was successfully administered without complications, allowing total exclusion of the fistula.

A good working view is critical for safe and successful endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms. In a few cases, endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms may be challenging due to difficulty in obtaining a proper working view. In this report of 6 cases, we described the advantage of using a distal intracranial catheter (DIC) to achieve better visualization of cerebral aneurysms hidden by a parent artery or its branches. Between September 2017 and January 2021, we treated 390 aneurysms with endovascular techniques. In 6 cases in which it was difficult to obtain a proper working view, the DIC was placed distally close to the aneurysm in order to remove the parent artery projection from the working view and obtain better visualization of the aneurysm. Clinical and procedural outcomes and complications were evaluated. The position of the DIC was above the internal carotid artery siphon in the 6 cases. All aneurysms were successfully embolized. Raymond–Roy class 1 occlusion was achieved in all 4 unruptured aneurysms, while the result was class 2 in the 2 ruptured aneurysms. Placement of the DIC was atraumatic without dissections or significant catheter-induced vasospasm in all patients. Transient dysphasia was seen in 2 cases and transient aphasia in 1. Using this technique, we have found it possible to better visualize the aneurysm sac or neck and thereby treat cases we otherwise would have considered untreatable.
