The available data for CME and EL have numerous fundamental limitations that prohibit adoption. Contemporary controlled studies are required before universal recommendation.

Omental mobilization, transfer and buttressing of primary perineal repair following proctectomy reduces perineal wound morbidity with minimal additional operating time or flap-associated morbidity.

Children diagnosed with JIA, pIBD and pPsO had an increased rate of malignancy compared with the general population, but treatment with TNFi did not appear to significantly further increase the risk compared with no TNFi use. More data are needed about the long-term risks of TNFi use.

Linear scleroderma is a form of localized scleroderma that primarily affects the pediatric population. When it occurs on the scalp or forehead, it is termed "en coup de sabre". In the en coup de sabre subtype, many extracutaneous associations, mostly neurological, have been described. A patient with linear scleroderma en coup de sabre was noted to have ipsilateral brain cavernomas by magnetic resonance imaging. Using a worldwide pediatric rheumatology electronic list-serve, another patient with the same 2 conditions was identified. These two patients are reported in this study. Consideration of neuroimaging studies to disclose abnormal findings in patients with linear scleroderma en coup de sabre is important for potentially preventing and treating neurological manifestations associated with this condition.

Laparoscopic omental mobilization is technically feasible and provides a safe method to aid perineal wound closure.
