Congenital Malformations of the Eye: A Pictorial Review and Clinico-Radiological Correlations. J Ophthalmol 2024; 2024:5993083. [PMID: 38322500 PMCID: PMC10846927 DOI: 10.1155/2024/5993083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2023] [Revised: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Congenital malformations of the eye represent a wide and heterogeneous spectrum of abnormalities that may be part of a complex syndrome or be isolated. Ocular malformation severity depends on the timing of the causative event during eye formation, ranging from the complete absence of the eye if injury occurs during the first weeks of gestation, to subtle abnormalities if the cause occurs later on. Knowledge of ocular malformations is crucial to performing a tailored imaging protocol and correctly reporting imaging findings. Together with the ophthalmologic evaluation, imaging may help frame ocular malformations and identify underlying genetic conditions. The purpose of this pictorial review is to describe the imaging features of the main ocular malformations and the related ophthalmologic findings in order to provide a clinico-radiological overview of these abnormalities to the clinical radiologist. Sight is a crucial sense for children to explore the world and relate with their parents from birth. Vision impairment or even blindness secondary to ocular malformations deeply affects children's growth and quality of life.

Abstract
Acute infections of the oral cavity and suprahyoid neck range from simple superficial conditions that can be treated as an outpatient to complex multispatial processes that require surgical intervention and inpatient admission. This article provides an imaging overview of the range of infections in this region that may be encountered by oral and maxillofacial surgeons, emergency physicians, and primary care providers.

Abstract
We report the case of a 4-month-old boy diagnosed with DiGeorge syndrome with novel ocular features. The patient was diagnosed through genetic testing, with a noted 22q11.2 deletion, and had the additional clinical findings of cardiac anomalies, Hirschsprung's disease, and intracranial microhemorrhages. Eye findings included bilateral microphthalmia, persistent fetal vasculature, chorioretinal coloboma, and a unilateral orbital cyst. Given no known additional inciting exposures, a dysgenic mechanism resulting in failed closure of developmental fissures associated with the chromosomal deletion likely gave rise to these combined pathologies.

Abstract
In this case report, we review a male child who presented with severe bilateral hearing loss. Preoperative high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) evaluation facilitated the initial diagnosis of the disease, which revealed typical findings of cochlear incomplete partition type III anomaly (IP-III), surgical planning, and cochlear implant selection to avoid possible complications. The child underwent cochlear implantation, which resulted in gushing and misplacement of the electrodes into the internal auditory canal (IAC) as postoperative complications. Postoperative imaging was used to determine the position of the implant and to assess the complications. The child’s postoperative X-ray revealed misplacement of the cochlear implant, the extent of which was further assessed by a HRCT scan for preplanning the revision surgery and electrode selection. Following the revision surgery, a further HRCT scan confirmed proper implantation and ruled out any further complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A number of metaphorical imaging signs have been described in the radiology literature. OBJECTIVE These signs not only make the learning process easier but also increase diagnostic confidence. For this reason, these signs are quite popular among radiologists. CONCLUSION In this article, we have demonstrated classic signs described in pediatric neuroradiology with appropriate examples and illustrations.
