[Usefulness of ultrasonography in children with right iliac fossa pain]. / Utilidad de la ecografía en niños con dolor en la fosa ilíaca derecha.

Acute pain in the right iliac fossa is common in children. It can arise from a wide variety of gastrointestinal and genitourinary processes that make up the differential diagnosis with acute appendicitis. In this article, we describe the most representative findings of these processes on ultrasonography. We emphasize the characteristics that enable these processes to be differentiated from acute appendicitis.

[Myocardial clefts: a report of four cases]. / Hendiduras miocárdicas: a propósito de 4 casos.

Current cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) techniques enable many heart defects, like myocardial clefts, to be detected. We present four clinical cases of myocardial clefts. Myocardial clefts are uncommon abnormalities that are found in both healthy individuals and patients with different heart problems. The etiopathogenesis is unknown, although several hypotheses have been proposed. Although myocardial clefts are usually discovered incidentally, it is important to be aware of their existence because they can cause systemic embolisms.
