Intracranial hypotension syndrome in a pediatric patient with Marfan syndrome
We present the case of an 11-year-old boy, with medical history of Marfan syndrome, with orthostatic headache and persistent vomiting (12 hours) following a fall on the sacrococcygeal region. Magnetic resonance showed extradural fluid collections at dorsal and lumbosacral levels, compatible with CSF leak. The condition was resolved with treatment, but the patient had two new episodes during the follow-up period. Thus, an epidural blood patch was performed two years after the first episode.

Corticoid treatment and SARS-CoV-2 variants: two independent factors associated with COVID-19 mortality in a Spanish regional hospital
CONCLUSIONS: This study confirms the therapeutic utility of glucocorticoids to reduce in-hospital mortality due to COVID-19. Heterogeneous mortality rates between the different COVID-19 waves suggest a direct role of viral variants as determinants of lethality, regardless of the patient's history.PMID:37203319 | PMC:PMC10205026 | DOI:10.23938/ASSN.1017 (Source: Anales del Sistema Sanitario de Navarra)

Avascular necrosis of the proximal epiphysis of the first metatarsal bone in childhood. Long-term outcome
An Sist Sanit Navar. 2023 Apr 25;46(1):e1030. doi: 10.23938/ASSN.1030.ABSTRACTTen-year old boy with an 8-month history of limping for pain in the dorsomedial region of the right midfoot. At examination, there were signs of local swelling and tenderness to palpation, as well as antalgic gait with internal rotation. X-ray results showed widening of the proximal epiphysis of the first metatarsal. One month later, local fragmentation with hypodense and sclerotic areas was observed. MRI showed fragmentation, sclerosis, and collapse in the proximal epiphysis consistent with avascular necrosis of the proximal epiphysis of the fir...
