It may be asymptomatic or may lead symptoms. We present the case of a multiseptate gallbladder in a 5 year old girl who was admitted for managament of acute appendicitis
Spine tuberculosis with an intercurrent active pulmonary location in a high incidence country: A rare case report
Spinal tuberculosis usually presents as destroyed contiguous vertebral bodies associated with intervertebral discs and paravertebral or psoas abscesses. Atypical forms are uncommonly reported. Vertebral involvement without disk destruction is a rare form that improves satisfactorily after appropriate medical management. We report the case of a 36-year-old male who had spine tuberculosis without disk involvement, associated with intercurrent active pulmonary location with good clinical improvement after treatment and follow-up imaging showing spectacular regression of bone lesions. By reporting this case, we also review the literature on this rare form of tuberculosis
The white cerebellum sign: Classic but under recognized sign of brain injury
The white cerebellum sign is a concerning but uncommon radiological imaging result that is frequently seen in patients with severe, frequently irreversible anoxic-ischemic brain injury. Due to its frequent correlation with an unfavorable prognosis, radiologists must recognize this sign. We report the case of a 1 year old girl with history of epilepsy who presented with deterioration of conscious level and focal fits and brain computed tomography scan done on her revealed the white cerebellum sign
