Abstract
Sinonasal angiomatous polyp (SAP) is a benign pseudoneoplastic lesion rarely reported in the literature. It may be misdiagnosed as a malignant neoplasm due to its aggressive features of bone erosion clinically or on imaging. We report the case of a 43-year-old woman with a 3 month history of unilateral nasal obstruction with recurrent epistaxis. Nasal endoscopy showed polypoid nasal mass occupying the left nasal cavity. Imaging was suggestive of malignant vascular tumor. The patient underwent surgical excision after embolization. Histopathology concluded to the diagnosis of SAP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metanephric adenoma is a rare benign renal tumor of the kidney, uncommonly observed in children. It is often misdiagnosed preoperatively as a malignant neoplasm, leading to an unnecessary nephrectomy. The challenge is to make the right diagnosis preoperatively and therefore manage it with conservative surgery. We report a case of a child with metanephric adenoma who underwent nephron-sparing surgery. CASE PRESENTATION A renal tumor was discovered fortuitously in an 18-month-old Caucasian girl with several congenital malformations. Investigations showed a 28 × 27 × 27 mm left renal mass centrally located, well defined, nonvascularized, with no calcifications and which compressed the adjacent renal tissue. Furthermore, there were no signs of metastasis. The decision of a multidisciplinary meeting was to perform a computed tomography (CT)-scan-guided biopsy. Histologic examination concluded it was a metanephric adenoma. We performed a left open partial nephrectomy via a flank retroperitoneal incision. The final histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis. The postoperative course was uneventful. CONCLUSION Preoperative diagnosis of metanephric adenoma is challenging. Because of the high probability of unnecessary radical nephrectomy, preoperative biopsy can be safe and determining to guide a more conservative approach so nephron-sparing surgery can be performed.

Abstract
Abstract
This paper discusses the policy game methodology and design that will be used in a simulation that aims to assess and understand the public health policy making in Tunisia. The policy game aims to analyzes the interactions, alliances and networks formed by the institutions and stakeholders during a policy game intervention that will be organized in Tunis, in which policy makers, civil servants, researchers and practitioners will simulate the use of evidence in real life policy making. The simulation has been realized within the Erasmus+ CONFIDE project focused on enhancing transnational partnerships and building capacity to inform evidence-based policies in Tunisia. This capacity building project and policy game is built on the collaboration of four Tunisian universities, from Tunis, Sfax, Sousse and Monastir, and three universities from the European Union, from Romania, Denmark and Slovakia. The policy game will focus on the drafting and implementation of a national strategy for fighting the increase of drug consumption among the Tunisian youth, a phenomenon which is rather new in Tunisia and spreading rapidly. The policy game will be followed by an analysis aiming to explore the impact of the intervention in enhancing cross-sector collaboration and the use of local stakeholder network regarding drug policy making. The preliminary results showed that the stakeholders approached this problem in a collaborative way and were willing to up-take evidence-based measures in the creation of a national strategy to fight drug consumption. This exercise has also shown that the policy game can be an effective tool in enhancing the use of scientific arguments in policy making and encourage stakeholders to approach policy making in a cross-sector way.
Key messages
Policy game can be an effective tool in enhancing the use of scientific arguments in policy making and encourage stakeholders to approach policy making in an interdisciplinary way. Stakeholders approached this problem in a collaborative way and were willing to up-take evidence-based measures in the creation of a national strategy to fight drug consumption.

Abstract
Abstract
Over the past years, Tunisia has experienced important reforms in the field of public health. The Tunisian medical faculties (Universities of Sfax, Tunis el Manar, Sousse and Monastir) play a key role in this endeavor by training public health professionals who can contribute to the modernization of the health system. Funded by the EC through Erasmus+ programme, the CONFIDE project (coordinated by Babes-Bolyai University, having as EU partners the Universities of Southern Denmark and Trnava, and the above mentioned Tunisian universities) has established the Research into Policy training programme by strengthening their capacity to provide public health training.
The Research into Policy training programme has been delivered by the Centres for Evidence into Health Policy (C4EHPs) established within the Tunisian partner universities for the needs of CONFIDE. The training programme was implemented in four steps: (1) train the trainer sessions - the European experts trained 18 Tunisian trainers; (2) shadowing sessions - the trainers participated in shadowing sessions in the European partner institutions; (3) training delivery - the CONFIDE trainers, assisted by the European experts, delivered the training to an interdisciplinary group of 25 students and professionals; (4) internships - the students participated in internships in local health institutions. Three modules have been built within the Research into Policy training programme: Public health research, Health promotion policies and Evidence based public health policy. They contributed to increasing the public health knowledge and skills of the professionals trained.
The training programme was well received by the Tunisian universities and the material developed so far during the project was adapted to the Tunisian context in the third step of implementation. On the long term, the project is expected to have an impact at the national level and produce updates at curricula level in the Tunisian medical faculties.
Key messages
Research into Policy training programme developed by the EC partners and culturally adapted by the Tunisian partners to the Tunisian public health context. Research into Policy training is a well-received tool for the high quality learning process in the public health field in Tunisian medical faculties.

Abstract
Anterior abdominal wall defects (AAWD) correspond to a wide spectrum of congenital defects affecting 6.3/10,000 pregnancies. They have in common a closure defect of the anterior abdominal wall and can be fatal or expose the fetus and the neonate (NN) to many complications. This study was based on a retrospective study of 22 cases of AAWD collected between May 2009 and December 2014. Its purpose was to specify the importance of prenatal ultrasonography in the diagnosis and prognosis assessment of these defects. These 22 AAWDs consisted in 13 cases of omphalocele (including four cases of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome), four of gastroschisis, one of pentalogy of Cantrell, three of vesical exstrophy and one of cloacal exstrophy. Prenatal ultrasonography provided the diagnosis of 14 of these defects with a changing sensitivity with the gestational age varying from 17% in the first trimester to 71.4% and 77.8% in the second and third trimesters, respectively. The relevance of this examination was improved when performed by an imaging specialist. The prenatal diagnosis of these defects indicated an amniocentesis in eight cases, allowing the diagnosis of two cases of trisomy 18. It also motivated a therapeutic termination of the pregnancy (TTP) in ten cases. Prenatal ultrasonography allowed better prenatal follow-up and planning of the delivery of the continued pregnancies. It indicated an emergency C-section in only one case by showing intestinal complications of gastroschisis. Four NNs died (two cases of omphalocele and two of gastroschisis), three of which postoperatively and the prenatal diagnosis did not improve survival. Prenatal ultrasonographic diagnosis provided a precise morphological study determining the type of the AAWD, a complete malformation assessment, and the prognosis factors. This resulted in adequate multidisciplinary pre and postnatal care, including a rigorous ultrasound follow-up, a TTP in case of associated defects, and emergency delivery once the complications of poor diagnosis are detected.

Abstract
Teratomas are unusual tumors derived from all 3 germs cells layers: endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm, with varying proportions. The cervical area is exceptionally affected. We report 4 cases of cervical teratoma. The clinically and radiologically suggested diagnosis was confirmed by histology. We describe herein the main clinical, radiological, and histological aspects and outcomes of this disease. Despite its most often benign histologic nature, cervical teratoma may threaten newborn infants' life due to airway compression. A multidisciplinary approach to the disease starting at delivery is required to improve the prognosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nasal meningocele, which is usually congenital, is a rare anomaly resulting from meningeal herniation into the nasal cavities through a bone defect in the skull base. CASE REPORT An 8-day-old boy was referred with respiratory disturbance and nasal obstruction. Examination showed a cyst-like grayish swelling filling the right nasal cavity. CT scan showed opacity, of fluid-like density, filling the right nasal fossa, in contact with a small bony defect in the right cribriform plate. MRI ruled out herniated brain parenchyma and enabled diagnosis of meningocele. The patient was operated on at the age of 2 months through a transnasal endoscopic approach. Immediate postoperative course was favorable. MRI control at 8 months was normal. DISCUSSION Modern imaging (CT scan and MRI) is of paramount importance in the preoperative evaluation of nasal meningocele. Endoscopic endonasal (EE) surgery is currently the treatment of choice. CONCLUSION Steady progress in instrumentation, technique and skills will increase the feasibility of skull-base surgery using an endonasal approach in the pediatric population.

Abstract
Pyogenic sacroiliitis is a rare entity in children. Diagnosis is often delayed because of its variable clinical presentation, low suspicion by the examining physician, and rare findings on radiographs. Delayed diagnosis, however, results in complications such as iliopsoas abscess. We report the case of a 12-year-old girl hospitalized with a 21-day history of fever, pain in the left iliac fossa, and flexion contracture of the hip. On examination, she had fever (38.9 degrees C), psoitis, localized tenderness at the left sacroiliac joint, and pain elicited by lateral compression of the pelvis. The abdominal examination was normal. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate was 130 mm in the first hour, C-reactive protein was 186 mg/l, and the white blood cell count was 18,400/mm(3), with 79% neutrophils. Urinalysis was normal. Blood cultures were negative. Radiographs of the pelvis showed irregular left sacroiliac borders. The CT scan provided the diagnosis of sacroiliitis complicated by an ilioapsoas abcsess. Treatment was based on antibiotic therapy associated with surgical drainage. Bacteriologic investigation revealed Staphylococcus aureus. The patient's temperature returned to normal on the second day. Antibiotics were continued for 3 months, leading to full recovery.

Abstract
Hypophyseal tuberculoma is extremely rare and difficult to diagnose without a clearly suggestive context. Its radiologic features are not specific and are better recognized on MRI with a mass of a variable signal related to the percentage of caseous necrosis. A frequently associated thickening of the pituitary stalk suggests tuberculosis, requiring the search for another tuberculosis location. This paper reports an original case of hypophyseal tuberculoma since it occurred with no other tubercular infection, which delayed the diagnosis despite thickening of the pituitary stalk on MRI.

Abstract
Dermoid cysts of the oral cavity are rare and most commonly involve the floor of mouth. Intralingual dermoid cysts are extremely rare and usually large at the time of diagnosis in adult patients. We report the case of 6 year old girl with macroglossia and swallowing and respiratory difficulties due to a giant intralingual dermoid cyst. Ultrasonography showed a large cystic intralingual lesion. MRI allowed accurate evaluation of the size, the extension and the relationship of the cystic mass with adjacent structures, the fat component of the cystic mass confirmed the dermoid origin. This case illustrates the diagnostic contribution of US and MRI in this disease.
