Sclerosing osteomyelitis of Garré is a rare and very specific type of chronic osteomyelitis that mainly affects children and young adults. To date, there is no clear etiology for the disease. Clinical findings and laboratory results are usually unremarkable with commonly negative blood and tissue cultures. Cortical thickening and periosteal reaction are common radiological findings. Biopsy often shows chronic non-specific inflammatory changes. It is a well-described entity in the dental literature, but to the best of our knowledge, there are no distinctive diagnostic criteria for long bones. We report a case of sclerosing osteomyelitis of Garré in a young lady involving the right tibia, for which the diagnosis was made based on clinico-radiological correlation.

Ependymoma is commonly an intra-axial infratentorial tumour affecting paediatric age group. We report a rare case of supratentorial extra-axial ependymoma in a teenager who presented with worsening headache and mild cognitive impairment. Previously, only few of such cases have been reported in the literature. However, in the last decade, there has been increasing number of this rare entity represented as a solid-cystic mass. In this report, we discuss the radiological features as we think it is mimicking a cystic meningioma and recommend that ependymoma should be considered in the diagnosis of a solid-cystic extra-axial lesion especially when located supratentorially.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 06 No. 03 July’22 Page: 338-341
