Mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia (MOGHE) is a recently proposed epileptogenic entity that is difficult to detect on MRI. We present a case of MOGHE that was successfully detected on T1WI-chemical shift-selective saturation (CHESS) MRI. The clinical presentation, MRI including T1WI-CHESS, functional images, and pathology findings of a 14-year-old Japanese girl diagnosed with MOGHE are described. T1WI-CHESS revealed an abnormal high signal along the affected lesion, whereas the findings shown by the other MR sequences were less obvious; interictal fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography indicated slightly decreased accumulation in the lesion, and subtraction ictal single photon emission computed tomography co-registered to MRI showed an increased blood flow. Together these observations suggest that T1WI-CHESS may be a useful MR sequence for detecting the lesions in patients with MOGHE.

Introduction: The Certifications of Visual Impairment (VI) system was implemented to quantify and classify the incidence of visual impairment amongst the England and Wales population. This retrospective study investigates the trend in the certification of VI amongst children aged <16 years old.
Methods: CVI data provided by the Certifications Office, was extracted and assessed to identify the various causes of mild-moderate (SI) and severe (SSI) visual impairment between 2009-2022.

Introduction: India experiences the highest number of road traffic fatalities globally. Acquired hypopituitarism is a common sequela in patients who sustain traumatic brain injury (TBI). This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and imaging characteristics of hypopituitarism in patients with TBI at a tertiary care centre in North India.

The brain arteriovenous malformation (BAVM) within language-eloquent area poses a significant surgical challenge, demanding meticulous planning to ensure both preservation of language function and curative resection. This report details the successful microsurgical resection of a Spetzler-Martin grade II BAVM located in Wernicke's area in a 51-year-old male, ruptured three weeks ago and characterized by mild anomia. Following thorough discussion, the patient elected for microsurgery, providing informed consent, and the procedure was approved by the ethics committee.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of the ketogenic diet (KD) in treating infantile epileptic spasm syndrome (IESS).
Methods: A comprehensive search of electronic databases was conducted to identify prognostic studies on the use of KD for IESS. Data from eligible studies were extracted and meta-analyzed using a random-effects model.
