Abstract:
Background: In line with previous research in alcohol addiction, we tested whether an Approach-Avoidance Training (AAT) prior to standard six-session Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) for Hair Pulling Disorder (HPD) reduced problematic relapse, commonly found in this population. Method: Prior to CBT, 54 outpatients with a primary diagnosis of HPD were randomly assigned (double-blind) to either a training condition (n = 27), learning to avoid hair-pulling-related stimuli, or to a control condition (n = 27). Symptom severity was assessed with the Massachussetts General Hospital Hairpulling Scale, Severity Urge Resistance Frequency Scale, Self-Control Cognition Questionnaire, and Alopecia Scale. Results: In line with existing research, CBT showed to be an effective treatment for HPD in the short-term. There was no significant symptom increase after one and three months, but effect sizes were reduced approximately by half at the twelve-month measurement. The AAT training prior to CBT did not result in enhanced symptom reduction or reduced relapse after CBT. Conclusions: AAT training could not resolve the substantial relapse after successful CBT. Future research should take into account the complexity of stimuli that elicit hair pulling (e.g., tactile stimuli) and consider investigating other types of biases.

Abstract:
The United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit recently upheld a United States District Court for the District of Maine Judge's decision to dismiss a Maine plaintiff's medical malpractice claim against a Massachusetts hospital defendant for want of personal jurisdiction over the hospital. The Court of Appeals found it unreasonable to hale hospitals into an out-of-state court merely because they accept out-of-state patients.Plaintiff Danielle Harlow is a Maine resident who suffered a stroke at the age of six while undergoing a medical procedure at Children's Hospital of Boston, Massachusetts (“Children's Hospital”). The stroke, allegedly caused by the Hospital's negligence, led to brain damage resulting in partial paralysis and cognitive and behavioral impairments. The procedure was supposed to treat Harlow's rapid heartbeat, a condition related to her Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome. Harlow's pediatrician in Maine recommended that she visit Children's Hospital in Boston to treat her arrhythmia.

Abstract:
IntroductionTreatment-resistant depression (TRD) has been a controversial issue for more than 35 years. Despite a large number of publications, clinicians and researchers still know few about the prevalence of TRD since no staging method has been validated.ObjectivesWe sought to assess similarities and differences between the 4 TRD-staging methods published to date and assess TRD prevalence in a clinical sample. We also wanted to look for clinical factors associated with TRD.MethodsWe conducted a clinical study in a psychiatric unit of a university hospital. We designed a hetero-questionnaire to stage TRD according to the 4 methods. Psychiatric diagnosis, depression severity and cognitive status were assessed using standardized tools. Patients were not included in the study if they suffer from schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, current substance dependence or major cognitive impairment.ResultsWe recruited 37 inpatients. Twenty-four had received an inadequate treatment, four had not responded after one adequate antidepressant trial and 9 after two trials. Only 7 were resistant according to the 4 staging methods, which showed several differences. The Massachussetts General Hospital (MGH) method appeared as the most specific and easy-to-use. Complete TRD seemed much less frequent than pseudo-resistance and relative resistance with untreated comorbidity. Chronic depression and comorbidity were frequent in the TRD subgroup.ConclusionThe concept of “difficult-to-treat” depression might be more appropriate for clinical practice than TRD. The MGH tool seems to fit best to clinical practice. Further research is needed to confirm these descriptive findings in a larger sample.

Abstract:
OBJECT Outcomes of microsurgical treatment of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) in children are infrequently reported across large cohorts. METHODS The authors undertook a retrospective review of departmental and hospital databases to obtain the medical data of all patients up to 18 years of age who were diagnosed with cerebral AVMs. Demographic and AVM angioarchitectural characteristics were analyzed, and for the patients who underwent surgery, the authors also analyzed the estimated intraoperative blood loss, postoperative angiographically confirmed obliteration rates, and neurological complications and outcomes classified according to the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). RESULTS Of 117 children with cerebral AVMs, 94 underwent microsurgical resection (80%). Twenty (21%) of these 94 patients underwent adjunctive preoperative embolization. The overall postoperative angiographically confirmed obliteration rate was 94%. As part of a new protocol, the last 50 patients in this series underwent immediate perioperative angiography, improving the subsequent obliteration rate from 86% to 100% (p = 0.01). No other factors, such as a hemorrhagic AVM, size of the AVM, location, drainage, or Spetzler-Martin grade, had a statistically significant impact on the obliteration rate. Perioperative neurological deficits occurred in 17% of the patients, but the vast majority of these (77%) were predictable visual field cuts. Arteriovenous malformations that were hemorrhagic or located in noneloquent regions were each associated with lower rates of postoperative neurological complications (p = 0.05 and 0.002, respectively). In total, 94% of the children had good functional outcomes (mRS Scores 0–2), and these outcomes were significantly influenced by the mRS score on presentation before surgery (p = 0.01). A review of 1- and 5-year follow-up data indicated an overall annual hemorrhage rate of 0.3% and a recurrence rate of 0.9%. CONCLUSIONS Microsurgical resection of AVMs in children is associated with high rates of angiographically confirmed obliteration and low rates of significant neurological complications. Implementation of a protocol using perioperative angiography in this series led to complete radiographically confirmed obliteration of all AVMs, with low annual repeat hemorrhage and recurrence rates.

Abstract:
Object Spinal aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) constitute a rare and clinically challenging disease, primarily affecting the pediatric population. Information regarding the management of spinal ABCs remains sparse. In this study the authors review their experience with spinal ABCs at Children's Hospital Boston. Methods The medical records of all patients treated surgically for primary spinal ABCs between January 1998 and July 2010 were retrospectively reviewed. Results Fourteen cases were identified (6 males and 8 females, ages 5–19 years old). The ABCs were located throughout the spine, with an equal number in the thoracic and lumbar spine, and rarely in the cervical spine. The majority of patients presented with back pain, but neurological deficits and spinal deformity were common. A variety of radiographic techniques were used to establish the diagnosis, including needle biopsy. Preoperative selective arterial embolization was performed in 7 cases (50%), and the majority of cases required spinal instrumentation along with resection. Mean follow-up was 55.9 months (range 15–154 months) after initial intervention. Two ABCs recurred (14%), at 9 months and 8 years after incomplete initial resection, and the patients underwent reoperation. Complete resection was ultimately achieved in all cases. All patients were asymptomatic and neurologically intact at their last follow-up evaluation, and showed no evidence of deformity or recurrence on imaging. Conclusions Computed tomography and MR imaging are adequate for an initial evaluation of spinal ABCs, although solid variants can present a diagnostic challenge. Given the high rates of recurrence with residual disease, complete obliteration of the lesion should be the goal of treatment. Preoperative embolization is often performed, although in the authors' opinion the degree of bleeding tends not to support its routine use. Long-term follow-up is warranted as recurrences can occur years after initial intervention. However, gross-total excision in conjunction with spinal stabilization, as needed, usually provides cure of the ABC and excellent long-term spinal alignment.

Abstract:
Albeit never trained in architectural design, Charles Bulfinch (1763-1844) is widely recollected as the first native-born American to practice architecture professionally. Inspired by continental influences, Bulfinch developed the neoclassicist style reflected in major private and public structures in Boston and Washington D.C. Although we have numerous studies of Bulfinch’s fascinating and pioneering architectural career, less is known about his intimate relationship to the medical field. Bulfinch was the chief designer of Massachusetts General Hospital, America’s third-oldest general hospital and Harvard Medical School’s first teaching hospital. Drawing on a wide range of underexplored primary and secondary sources, this article offers a historical recounting of Bulfinch’s life and architectural trajectory up to the conception and design of Massachusetts General Hospital. Then, it draws attention to the structure and organization of the Hospital, its position within the historical context of the time, and its lasting impact on the history of American medicine. In so doing, this article provides a fresh perspective into Boston’s healthcare architecture, the history of its preeminent hospital, and the legendary personality that made it what it is today

Abstract:
Abstract Horace Wells, a dentist in Hartford, Connecticut, first used nitrous oxide in dentistry in December 1844. A few weeks later he travelled to Boston, Massachusetts, to demonstrate to physicians and dentists the use of nitrous oxide in painful procedures. Wells’ unsuccessful demonstration of nitrous oxide for the extraction of a tooth is well known, but other details of this trip are poorly understood. A description of Wells’ visit to Boston was compiled using information from 21 statements and 5 newspaper notices. The precise date and location of Wells’ demonstration could not be determined. There is no primary evidence that Wells’ demonstration occurred in the surgical amphitheater (Ether Dome) at Massachusetts General Hospital. Wells’ demonstration of nitrous oxide probably occurred around the end of January 1845, in a public hall on Washington Street, Boston.

Abstract:
Donald Darrow Matson made seminal contributions to the field of pediatric neurosurgery. Born in 1913 in Fort Hamilton, New York, Matson was the youngest of four sons of an army colonel. He graduated from Cornell University and, years later, from Harvard Medical School. Matson selected Peter Bent Brigham Hospital for his neurosurgical training, which was interrupted during World War II. As a neurosurgeon, he worked close to the front lines under Brigadier General Elliot Cutler in Europe, earning a Bronze Star. Matson returned to Boston to become Franc Ingraham’s fellow and partner. He was a masterful surgeon and, with Ingraham, published Neurosurgery of Infancy and Childhood in 1954, the first pediatric neurosurgery textbook in the world. Upon Ingraham’s retirement, Matson became chairman of the department of neurosurgery at Boston Children’s Hospital and Peter Bent Brigham. In 1968, he became the inaugural Franc D. Ingraham Professor of Neurological Surgery at Harvard Medical School. Among his neurosurgical accomplishments, Matson served as President of the Harvey Cushing Society, later known as the American Association of Neurological Surgeons. He was unable to preside at the 1969 meeting that marked the 100th anniversary of Cushing’s birth, having contracted Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Matson died at the age of 55, surviving his mentor Ingraham by only 4 years.

Abstract:
In 1995, Miami Children's Hospital recognized an institutional problem with its programme providing surgical treatment for congenital cardiac malformations. There was a high rate of mortality for neonatal surgery, and no patients had survived attempted first stage palliation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome. The hospital enlisted nationally recognized consultants in congenital cardiac surgery and cardiology to review the existing programme, and to make recommendations for improvement. Based on these recommendations, a new team was recruited. The recruits were a young attending surgeon, an interventional cardiologist, and a cardiac intensivist, attracted from recognized centers of excellence in Boston and Toronto.

Abstract:
AbstractCardiac surgery for CHD was pioneered in Washington, DC by Charles Hufnagel and Edgar Davis working at Georgetown University and Children’s Hospital of the District of Columbia. Children’s Hospital, now Children’s National Hospital, had been established just 5 years after the end of the Civil War. In the 1950s, Davis and Hufnagel undertook many open-heart operations using the technique of surface cooling, hypothermia, and circulatory arrest. Hufnagel and Lewis Scott, who founded the cardiology department at Children’s, were trained in Boston by Gross and Nadas. Judson Randolph, also a trainee of Gross, introduced cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass and established the General Pediatric Surgery department at Children’s in the 1960s. The transition of hospital staffing from community-based private physicians to full-time hospital employees was often controversial but was complete by the turn of the millennium. The 21st century has seen continuing growth of the new Children’s National Heart Institute and consolidation of several congenital cardiac programmes in Washington, DC.

Abstract:
IntroductionSecondary analysis of hospital-hosted clinical data can save time and cost compared with prospective clinical trials for neuroimaging biomarker development. We present such a study for Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS), a rare neurovascular disorder that affects 1 in 20 000–50 000 newborns. Children with SWS are at risk for developing neurocognitive deficit by school age. A critical period for early intervention is before 2 years of age, but early diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers are lacking. We aim to retrospectively mine clinical data for SWS at two national centres to develop presymptomatic biomarkers.Methods and analysisWe will retrospectively collect clinical, MRI and neurocognitive outcome data for patients with SWS who underwent brain MRI before 2 years of age at two national SWS care centres. Expert review of clinical records and MRI quality control will be used to refine the cohort. The merged multisite data will be used to develop algorithms for abnormality detection, lesion-symptom mapping to identify neural substrate and machine learning to predict individual outcomes (presence or absence of seizures) by 2 years of age. Presymptomatic treatment in 0–2 years and before seizure onset may delay or prevent the onset of seizures by 2 years of age, and thereby improve neurocognitive outcomes. The proposed work, if successful, will be one of the largest and most comprehensive multisite databases for the presymptomatic phase of this rare disease.Ethics and disseminationThis study involves human participants and was approved by Boston Children’s Hospital Institutional Review Board: IRB-P00014482 and IRB-P00025916 Johns Hopkins School of Medicine Institutional Review Board: NA_00043846. Participants gave informed consent to participate in the study before taking part. The Institutional Review Boards at Kennedy Krieger Institute and Boston Children’s Hospital approval have been obtained at each site to retrospectively study this data. Results will be disseminated by presentations, publication and sharing of algorithms generated.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE The goal of this study was to identify the independent risk factors for recurrence or progression of pediatric craniopharyngioma and to establish predictors of the appropriate timing of intervention and best management strategy in the setting of recurrence/progression, with the aim of optimizing tumor control. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of all pediatric patients with craniopharyngioma who were diagnosed and treated at Boston Children’s Hospital between 1990 and 2017. This study was approved by the institutional review board at Boston Children’s Hospital. All statistical analyses were performed using Stata software. RESULTS Eighty patients (43 males and 37 females) fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The mean age at the time of diagnosis was 8.6 ± 4.4 years (range 1.2–19.7 years). The mean follow-up was 10.9 ± 6.5 years (range 1.3–24.6 years). Overall, 30/80 (37.5%) patients developed recurrence/progression. The median latency to recurrence/progression was 12.75 months (range 3–108 months). Subtotal resection with no adjuvant radiotherapy (p < 0.001) and fine calcifications (p = 0.008) are independent risk factors for recurrence/progression. An increase (%) in the maximum dimension of the tumor at the time of recurrence/progression was considered a statistically significant predictor of the appropriate timing of intervention. CONCLUSIONS Based on the identified independent risk factors for tumor recurrence/progression and the predictors of appropriate timing of intervention in the setting of recurrence/progression, the authors propose an algorithm for optimal management of recurrent pediatric craniopharyngioma to increase the likelihood of tumor control.
