Altano-axial subluxation with torticollis secondary to Langerhans cell histocytosis
Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis is a rare disease featuring aberrant proliferation of dendritic cells that can infiltrate the bony skeleton. The authors report a case of six-year-old female presenting with torticollis. She was found to have extensive lytic

Rapid Response to Trametinib Combined With Chemotherapy for Infant BRAF‐Fused Chiasmatic Glioma
ABSTRACT Infants, less than 1 year, with chiasmatic gliomas (ICG) present a major therapeutic challenge due to large tumor size, decreased vision, rapid progression, and poor response to vincristine/carboplatin chemotherapy. The majority have a BRAF fusion, which may respond to downstream MEK inhibitors but response time is slow. There are no safety or
