Is the open-mouth odontoid view necessary in children under 5 years?

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:Questionnaires (984) were submitted to pediatric radiologists to determine how often odontoid fractures were missed on lateral views and detected on open-mouth odontoid views in children under 5 years. Other questions relating to imaging protocols of the odontoid also were included, and there were 432 respondents. RESULTS:Of these, 161 respondents indicated that an open-mouth odontoid view was not routinely included in their imaging protocol. CONCLUSIONS:There was considerable variability on how the problem of imaging of the odontoid was addressed, but overall there were enough data to begin to consider the concept that the open-mouth odontoid might not be needed in patients under 5 years of age if a lateral view is normal.

  • Atypical intrathoracic rib in a pediatric patient requiring helical CT scan with 3-D reconstruction for diagnosis.

    abstract::Intrathoracic rib is a rare congenital anomaly that is usually discovered incidentally. It represents a benign lesion but can mimic intrathoracic pathology, so it is important to recognize it to prevent further unnecessary investigation or intervention. Typically, the classic appearance allows diagnosis with confidenc...
