Pathology mimicking distal intestinal obstruction syndrome in cystic fibrosis.

Eight patients with cystic fibrosis had chronic abdominal pain and the other features of distal intestinal obstruction syndrome. Coexistent abdominal pathology was shown in six patients. Two had a small bowel volvulus, and the others had Crohn's disease, a small bowel fistula, appendix abscess, and an ovarian dermoid. Opiate abuse exacerbated symptoms in two other patients.

Condensing osteitis of the clavicle: does it exist?

Condensing osteitis of the clavicle was first described as a disease entity in 1974. There is painful localised swelling of the clavicle of undetermined origin, with increased radio-density, but an infective aetiology has not been excluded by previous authors. We report three children with the clinical and radiological findings of 'condensing osteitis'. Two of them had raised levels of antistaphylolysin titres and all responded to antibiotic therapy. We conclude that condensing osteitis is due to low-grade staphylococcal osteomyelitis; biopsy and treatment by antibiotics is recommended.

Multilocular cystic nephroma: report of three cases.

Multilocular cystic nephroma is an uncommon renal neoplasm which in childhood usually presents as an abdominal mass. The same condition is also described as multilocular kidney and multilocular cystic hamartoma. The clinical presentation, and radiological findings in three cases of multilocular cystic nephroma are described.

The radiological identification of tumours in children.

The diagnostic imaging procedures now available for the identification of tumours are many. Much of the information gained from one imaging procedure is simply duplicated by another without the addition of new information. This is wasteful of resources. An understanding of the advantages and limitations of each technique is essential for the selection of the best diagnostic pathways. These are briefly described and followed by a brief discussion of the role of radiology in the protocols for the treatment of childhood cancer. No attempt is made to indicate how each specific tumour should be investigated.

Multiple benign mesenchymomata of the chest wall.

Chest wall mesenchymoma is a rare benign tumour arising from the ribs and occurring in infants, being usually present from birth. The few previously documented cases have been of solitary tumours. A 6-week-old infant presented with two separate lesions demonstrating specific radiological signs, and on isotope scanning with Technetium MDP a high uptake of the agent was demonstrated.
