Purpose Severe accidents are the leading cause of long-term impairment and death in children. A common diagnostic procedure for children exposed to high-injury trauma is full-body contrast-enhanced CT (fbCT). However, the number of fbCT without detected injuries is relevant. In 2007, full-body MRI (fbMRI) was implemented as a diagnostic approach for children sustaining high-energy trauma. The aim of this cross-sectional retrospective study was to analyze fbMRI as a diagnostic tool for children after high-energy trauma focusing on feasibility, radiological findings, and limitations. Methods Diagnostics using fbMRI (from apex of the head to the pelvis) was performed if a child was stable and suffered a high-energy trauma in a Level I Trauma Center in Germany. 105 fbMRIs in patients exposed to high-energy trauma aged ≤ 16 years were performed between January 2007 and December 2018. Four fbMRIs were excluded as conducted for reasons other than trauma. Time between arrival in the emergency department and fbMRI, additional diagnostic procedures, injuries, and non-trauma related pathologies were analyzed. Results Mean time between arrival in the emergency department and fbMRI was 71 min (± SD 132 min). Two scans were discontinued and changed to a faster diagnostic procedure. 45% of children had additional X-rays and 11% CT scans. The MRIs showed intracranial abnormalities in 27%, extremities injuries in 26%, spinal injuries in 18%, pelvic, and thoracic injuries in 7% of the cases. Conclusion Overall fbMRI is a diagnostic alternative for hemodynamically stable, conscious children after high-energy trauma with the advantages of a radiation-free technique. However, MRI diagnostics take longer than CT scans. Prospective studies will be needed to identify the limiting factors of fbMRIs as primary diagnostic procedure compared to CT scans.

In summary, it is shown that most of the websites about medical information have inadequate quality. This statement is in accord with some U. S. American publications. It is clear that Wikipedia has a top-ranking on the internet when it is about medical information. Wikipedia almost achieves all of the HON code principles. It is possible to give better medical online information about orthopaedic and trauma surgical issues published by professionals.

Background/Aim: The study aimed at investigating the correlation between ductoscopic and histopathological findings and clarify whether the former allow for accurate prediction of malignancy. Patients and Methods: The prospective national multi-center study covered a sample of 224 patients with pathologic nipple discharge. A total of 214 patients underwent ductoscopy with subsequent extirpation of the mammary duct. The ductoscopic findings were categorized according to shape, number, color and surface structure of lesions and vascularity and compared to the histological results and analyses. Results: Ductoscopy revealed lesions in 134 of 214 patients (62.2%). The criteria "multiple versus solitary lesion" differed significantly between malignant and benign lesions. All other criteria were not statistically significant. Malignant tumors were more frequently presented as multiple lesions, benign lesions or masses as solitary lesions (80% vs. 24.8%; p=0.018). Conclusion: The ductoscopic criterion "solitary vs. multiple lesion" appears to have a low diagnostic prediction of malignancy or benignity.Nipple discharge is a common symptom of breast disease. It represents the second leading common symptom after mastodynia for which most women appear in specialized breast departments/clinics (1). A total of 5-7% of all women going to a special breast clinic suffer of nipple discharge (2-4), which may be caused by a benign or malignant lesion. The incidence of pathologic nipple discharge and papilloma has been most frequently described (43-66% of cases), followed by ductal ectasia (15-20%) and carcinomas (10-28%) (1, 2, 4-7). In addition to anamnesis talk and physical examination, further diagnostic methods in cases of pathologic nipple discharge are necessary. These are ultrasound of the breast, mammography, galactography, smear of the nipple, ductal lavage and in some reasonable cases an MRI examination (5,8,9). The whole excision of the secretory duct by using a blue dye technique remains the gold standard for patients with conspicuous nipple discharge. Since the end of the eighties (1980), ductal endoscopy including ductoscopy and galactography is available for a direct visualisation of the small milk ducts (1). Ductoscopy is a minimally invasive endoscopic technique that enables direct intraductal visualization (10). The most promising investigation technique of nipple discharge with unclear causes is actually ductoscopy (1, 2) and has already been 2185

Although serious accidents remain the leading cause of pediatric mortality, protocols to orient diagnostic procedures towards a certain type of initial imaging are widely needed. Since 2007, we have performed whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (WBMR) and whole-body computed tomography (WBCT) for diagnoses of severely injured children. We retrospectively reviewed 134 WBMR and 158 WBCT in patients younger than 16 years that were performed at two trauma centers between 2007 and 2018. A higher Injury Severity Score (ISS) was found in WBCT vs. WBMR (10.6 vs. 5.8; p = 0.001), but without any significant difference in mortality. The WBMR was significantly preferred at younger ages (9.6 vs. 12.8 years; p < 0.001). The time between patient’s arrival until diagnosis was 2.5 times longer for WBCT (92.1 vs. 37.1 min; p < 0.001). More patients in the CT group received analgesic sedation and/or intubation at 37.3% vs. 21.6% in the MRI group. Of these patients, 86.4% (CT) and 27.6% (MRI) were already preclinically sedated (p < 0.001). Correspondingly, 72.4% of the patients were first sedated in-hospital for MRIs. In conclusion, WBMR is an alternative and radiation-free imaging method for high-energy-traumatized children. Although the selected diagnostics seemed appropriate, limitations regarding longer duration or additional analgesic sedation are present, and further studies are needed.
