Case 38-2006: A 5-Year-Old Boy with Headache and Abdominal Pain (Case Records of the Massachusetts General Hospital, N Engl J Med 2006:355;2575 - 2584) . At the beginning of the article, under “Presentation of Case,” Dr. Zanger's first name should read “Kerstin” (not “Kirsten”). Also, in Table 1 (page 2576), the entries for the rows under “Cerebrospinal Fluid” were incorrect. At first admission, the red-cell count (per mm3) should have been 12,222 and the white-cell count (per mm3) 23; at second admission, the red-cell count should have been 1200 and the white-cell count 30; and at the current admission, the red-cell count should have been 4056 and the white-cell count 153. The reference range for white cells in the cerebrospinal fluid should be 0-5 cells per mm3. The text and the table have been corrected on the Journal's Web site at www.nejm.org. We regret the errors.
