        Epidural hematomas are rare birth injuries, and spontaneous presentation is exceptional. We present 2 cases of newborns with spontaneous epidural hematomas after delivery. In both cases, cerebral hemorrhage was associated with skull fracture and cephalohematoma. One newborn presented with neurologic symptoms in the form of convulsions, whereas the other was asymptomatic. Confirmation of the diagnosis was made by cranial computed tomography. Both cases were treated surgically by craniotomy. Follow-up showed normal neurologic development.

          Fetus in fetu (FIF) is a rare cause of abdominal mass in children. One of the malformed monozygotic diamniotic twins is located in the body of other twin. It is differentiated from teratoma by the presence of vertebral organization with limb buds and other organ systems. Diagnosis is based on radiologic findings. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice, leading to the complete removal of the mass. To our knowledge, less than 200 cases have been described in the literature. Herein, we report 2 cases of FIF, a newborn who was diagnosed antenatally and a three-and-half-year- old boy diagnosed with mediastinal FIF after admission for recurrent respiratory tract infections.

            Unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis was diagnosed in 2 preterm neonates born at 29 and 25 weeks of gestation, respectively. In both instances, the pathophysiology was phrenic nerve injury after extravasation of parenteral nutrition fluid. Misplacement and infection were predisposing factors. Diaphragmatic movement analysis by time-motion-mode ultrasonography was helpful in achieving a diagnosis. The first neonate required a diaphragmatic placation, whereas the other infant was managed nonoperatively.

              Transient impairment of bowel function is a frequent and distressing problem in neonates on opioid-induced analgesia. Methylnaltrexone, a peripheral-acting μ-opioid receptor antagonist, has been studied in adults for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation in advanced illness and has been suggested as a promising therapeutic concept for reducing postoperative ileus. Here, we report on a newborn infant on fentanyl analgesia after major abdominal surgery with aggravated ileus. After 8 days of quiescent bowel, the patient's intestinal dysmotility resolved within 15 minutes after intravenous administration of methylnaltrexone (0.15 mg/kg body weight).

                We report the case of a 38-week gestational age neonate, with isolated congenital diaphragmatic hernia presenting with refractory persistent pulmonary hypertension, systemic hypotension, and hypoxemia, resistant to usual therapeutics. Arginine vasopressin is responsible for systemic vasoconstriction and decreases pulmonary hypertension. We theorized that terlipressin, its long-acting analogue, could have the same properties. We used terlipressin as rescue therapy after parental and local ethics committee acceptance.

                  Defect of the intestinal musculature is a rare condition. It may cause intestinal perforation or obstruction. It manifests itself mainly in the neonatal period and usually affects preterm infants. We describe one such case, which was first diagnosed as a spontaneous isolated intestinal perforation. Emergency laparotomy was performed and showed multiple perforations, with accompanying peritonitis and ascites. Pathologic examination showed partial or complete absence of the musculature, particularly of the inner circular layer, with fibrous tissue in the regions of missing muscle, and abnormal vasculature.

                    We describe an extremely rare case of bilateral intrathyroidal branchial cleft cysts. A 2-day-old male neonate presented with intermittent tachypnea, dyspnea, and a palpable neck mass. Cervical ultrasonography and computerized tomography scan demonstrated a right-sided 3 × 3-cm cystic mass and a left sided 4.5 × 4-cm cystic mass, thought to be originating in the thyroid gland. The right-sided cyst decreased in size after OK-432 sclerotherapy. The left-sided cyst showed little response to 2 attempts of OK-432 sclerotherapy.

                      A newborn female infant delivered after a normal pregnancy was found to have a large sacrococcygeal mass. Imaging and laboratory studies suggested this was a sacrococcygeal teratoma. On the 16th day of age, the tumor was completely removed. Histopathologic examination of the tumor showed malignant Triton tumor (MTT). Thus, we describe a female newborn without a family history of neurofibromatosis with an MTT that mimics a sacrococcygeal teratoma. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a sacrococcygeal MTT detected in a neonate.

                          Carrying a prenatal diagnosis of a left-sided intraabdominal mass, a term female newborn underwent postnatal imaging that confirmed a left suprarenal mass. Urinary normetanephrine levels were elevated. Given a preoperative diagnosis of neuroblastoma, the baby underwent an uneventful resection of the mass en bloc with the left adrenal gland. The pathologic examination returned pulmonary sequestration and a normal adrenal gland. Postoperative urinary catecholamines were normal. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first description of a newborn with an intraabdominal pulmonary sequestration presenting with elevated urinary catecholamines.

                            Infected lateral cervical cysts in newborn are rare. We present the case of a baby born at 41 weeks of gestation. At day 3, persistent cyanosis was noted, and a mass appeared in the left cervical region next to the sternocleidomastoid muscle. No cutaneous sinus was visible. Ultrasound imaging showed no sign of blood flow within the mass and no septae. The mass extended down to the aortic arch and pushed the trachea to the right. A cervical lymphangioma was first suspected. Puncture of the mass evacuated 80 mL of pus, and a drain was put in place.

                              Umbilical vein catheterization that is a common bedside procedure in the neonatal intensive care units is not without complication. The most common complications are thrombus formation, embolism, vessel perforation, hemorrhage, and infection. Complications related to the liver carry a high risk for mortality. Laceration is an ominous complication of umbilical vein catheter that is generally a result of direct injury through the liver parenchyma. Abdominal distension that develops gradually should alert the physician for a likely development of intrahepatic bleeding.

                                An exceptional case of tracheal agenesis with no communication with the esophagus is described. This malformation needs surgical airway approach and is hardly classifiable. We analyzed the literature and our institutional data: this resulted to be the first case of such anatomical variant. Genetic and pathological issues are reviewed: recent genetic data seem to explain this malformation. We also reviewed the available literature about prenatal presentation. Because prenatal diagnosis is difficult to achieve and current guidelines for neonatal resuscitation do not provide any recommendation, the resuscitative team may not be prepared for managing such a case.

                                  Congenital lingual cysts are rare congenital tumors of the oropharynx, which should be suspected when the tongue appears enlarged by a mass. Prenatal diagnosis by ultrasound allows for an optimal management at the time of delivery because the mass can obstruct the airways. Unless the cyst enlarges and hinders feeding or breathing, surgical treatment is indicated only a few months after birth because spontaneous regression can sometimes be observed.

                                    A newborn with an unusual association of hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma and mesenchymal stem villous hyperplasia of the placenta is presented. At birth, the large hepatic mass caused severe respiratory distress necessitating early surgical intervention. This report on the association of hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma and mesenchymal stem villous hyperplasia of the placenta strongly suggests a common pathogenetic origin of the 2 lesions.
