Abstract
Paediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome associated with severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection (PIMS-TS) is defined as 'a child presenting with persistent fever, inflammation and evidence of single or multi-organ dysfunction with additional features which include a rash'.1 The World Health Organisation's (WHO) definition further includes a 'rash or bilateral non-purulent conjunctivitis or muco-cutaneous inflammation signs'.2 Previously reported mucocutaneous manifestations (MCM) in PIMS-TS have been vague. This study aimed to delineate the MCM of children presenting with PIMS-TS in more detail.

Abstract
Road traffic accidents are the most common cause of blunt native kidney injuries. Transplanted kidneys are more exposed to such injuries due to the common positioning in the iliac fossa compared with the relatively protected position of the native kidneys. The small number of cases identified in the literature describe grade II and III transplant kidney injuries that were treated surgically. In our case a grade IV injury was managed conservatively giving the necessary time to appropriately plan the future renal replacement therapy options for the patient.

Abstract
Prostheses are proposed to restore the spinal stability of patients suffering from metastatic malignant tumours in their vertebral bodies. They are designed to replace only one vertebral body and two neighbouring intervertebral discs of the spine. Experiments performed on cervical, thoracic and lumbar sections, which were obtained from fresh cadavers, have shown that the reduction in average compressive strengths of these regions due to the placement of prostheses is about 9%. This seems acceptable for those patients in performing their daily activities. The same amount of reduction has also been observed in average compressive strengths of the neighbouring healthy vertebrae due to the placement of prosthesis heads by bone cement. Developed prostheses have a number of advantages over the existing fusion constructs for the cases considered in this work.
