Do Glioblastomas with Syndromic Association Have Better Prognosis ? A Case of Supratentorial Glioblastoma with Embryonal Tumor Differentiation in a Child with Multiple Enchondromatosis
We report a case of a 10-year-old boy presenting with a supratentorial GBM, isocitrate dehydrogenase wild type with ET differentiation, and multiple benign bony lesions of both extremities. He underwent surgical excision for the brain neoplasm followed by radiotherapy and has shown prolonged survival with no recurrence. In this article, we discuss prognostic factors associated with long-term survival of these tumors. (Source: Journal of Pediatric Neurosciences)

KLHL40 mutation associated with severe nemaline myopathy, fetal akinesia, and cleft palate
Kapil K Avasthi, Sarita Agarwal, Inusha PanigrahiJournal of Pediatric Neurosciences 2019 14(4):222-224The congenital myopathies are a heterogeneous group of inherited neuromuscular disorders characterized by early-onset muscular weakness, hypotonia, and developmental delay. The congenital myopathies are further classified into centranuclear myopathies, nemaline myopathies, core myopathies, and congenital fiber-type disproportion based on major pathological features found in muscle biopsies. There is no evidence at present to show that cleft palate is associated with severe nemaline myopathies and fetal akinesia. The result...

Giant occipital encephalocele in an infant: A surgical challenge
Pramod Sreekanta Murthy, Shravan Kumar Kalinayakanahalli RamkrishnappaJournal of Pediatric Neurosciences 2019 14(4):218-221Giant occipital encephalocele is an uncommon condition. The sheer size of the lesion poses a challenge to the surgeon and the anesthetist. Here, we present a 4-month-old girl child presenting with a progressively increasing swelling in the occipital region since birth. The child after evaluation underwent repair of the encephalocele. The purpose of this report was to highlight the difficulties faced during surgery while operating on such a huge occipital encephalocele. (Source: Journal of Pediatric Neurosciences)

Cervicothoracic spinal dysraphism: Unravelling the Pandora & #8217;s box
Conclusion: The management strategy and association with other congenital anomalies separate CTSD as different clinical entity as compared with their lumbosacral counterparts. These patients show relatively favorable outcome with regard to neurological, orthopedic, and urological symptoms. Early surgical intervention after proper radiological and clinical evaluation is recommended. (Source: Journal of Pediatric Neurosciences)

Is the treatment of constipation can relieve the migraine symptoms ? A randomized clinical trial study
Conclusion: Short-term follow-up of this study showed that lactulose syrup could remove the constipation with no significant side effects––can be used as an adjunct for the treatment of patients with migraine. However, future studies suggested for long-term consequences of constipation control. (Source: Journal of Pediatric Neurosciences)

Anti-N-methyl-
We report two children with anti-NMDAR encephalitis with a literature review of current evidence in diagnosing and managing this rare condition. Resection of the tumor, glucocorticoids, intravenous immunoglobulin, and plasma exchange often result in improvement, usually within four weeks. Outcome corresponds with the rapidity of commencing appropriate treatment. (Source: Journal of Pediatric Neurosciences)
