MISSER, Shalendra. Answer and discussion paediatric neuroimaging quiz case. S. Afr. J. radiol. (Online) [online]. 2016, vol.20, n.1, pp.1-5. ISSN 2078-6778.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/sajr.v20i1.999.

A three-and-a-half-year-old male child was referred for neuroimaging under general anaesthesia for intractable seizures. A final diagnosis of probable tuberous sclerosis with associated left hippocampal sclerosis was made. Differential diagnosis of malformation of cortical development with hippocampal sclerosis (Type 3a) was considered with respect to the left temporal lobe abnormality. It is heartening to note that several good submissions were received for the paediatric quiz case. Noteworthy responses were received from Dr Samuel Mannikam, Dr Thandi Buthelezi, Dr Philip Janse van Rensburg and Dr Ian Haynes, however, the prize of R2000 was awarded to Dr Richard Busayo Ulatunji for the most inclusive answer.
