The Meckel syndrome is an autosomal recessive lethal malformation syndrome. The main features are multicystic dysplastic kidneys, microcephaly with occipital encephalocele and polydactyly. This paper describes 6 new cases, with special reference to skeletal findings in postmortem total body radiographys. Microcephaly with an occipital bone defect and encephalocele or hydrocephaly [1/6], short upper extremities, bell-shaped thorax with abdominal distension and postaxial polydactyly in the hands and feet were constant findings in these cases. 相似文献

2 brothers with possible homozygous multiple cartilaginous exostosis (MCE) are reported. The MCE-PD-(Peripheral Dysostosis) syndrome is discussed. A family (father, daughter and son) with Metachondromatosis is presented, and the tendency to spontaneous remission in this condition is emphasized. A “second thought”, when considering the diagnosis of MCE, seems worthwhile. 相似文献

A case of the Joubert Syndrome is reported. This syndrome, of which 11 cases have hitherto been described, is characterized by aplasia of the cerebellar vermis in addition to episodic hyperpnoea, abnormal eye movements, rhythmic protrusion of the tongue, ataxia, and mental retardation. The diagnosis was made by the clinical symptoms, computerized axial tomography of the brain, and lumbar pneumencephalography. Bilateral typical colobomata of retina and choroid were an additional anomaly, described for the first time in association with the Joubert Syndrome. The possible relationship between the ocular and cerebral anomalies is discussed. 相似文献

Bartter syndrome is a group of inherited, salt-losing tubulopathies presenting as hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis with normotensive hyperreninemia and hyperaldosteronism. Around 150 cases have been reported in literature till now. Mutations leading to salt losing tubulopathies are not routinely tested in Indian population. The authors have done the genetic analysis for the first time in the Bartter syndrome on two cases from India. First case was antenatal Bartter syndrome presenting with massive polyuria and hyperkalemia. Mutational analysis revealed compound heterozygous mutations in KCNJ1(ROMK) gene [p(Leu220Phe), p(Thr191Pro)]. Second case had a phenotypic presentation of classical Bartter syndrome however, genetic analysis revealed only heterozygous novel mutation in SLC12A gene p(Ala232Thr). Bartter syndrome is a clinical diagnosis and genetic analysis is recommended for prognostication and genetic counseling. 相似文献

Fragile X syndrome characterized by intellectual disability (ID), facial dysmorphism, and postpubertal macroorchidism is the most common monogenic cause of ID. It is typically induced by an expansion of a CGG repeat in the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene on Xq27 to more than 200 repeats. Only rarely patients have atypical mutations in the FMR1 gene such as point mutations, deletions, or unmethylated/partially methylated full mutations. Most of these patients show a minor phenotype or even appear clinically healthy. Here, we report the dysmorphism and clinical features of a 17-year-old boy with a partially methylated full mutation of approximately 250 repeats. Diagnosis was made subsequently to the evaluation of a FMR1 premutation as the cause for maternal premature ovarian failure. Dysmorphic evaluation revealed no strikingly long face, no prominent forehead/frontal bossing, no prominent mandible, no macroorchidism, and a head circumference in the lower normal range. Acquisition of a driving license for mopeds and unaccompanied rides by public transport in his home province indicate rather mild ID (IQ?=?58). Conclusion: This adolescent demonstrates that apart from only minor ID, patients with a partially methylated FMR1 full mutation present less to absent pathognomonic facial dysmorphism, thus emphasizing the impact of family history for a straightforward clinical diagnosis. 相似文献

Background
To compare neonatal mortality and neurodevelopmental outcomes at two years of age in very low birth weight infants (≤1500 g) born by cesarean with those by vaginal delivery.Methods
In this retrospective, case-control study, we evaluated neonatal mortality, medical conditions and neurodevelopmental outcomes at two years of corrected age in 710 very low birth weight (VLBW) infants born between January 2005 and December 2010. Of the 710 infants, 351 were born by the cesarean and 359/710 by vaginal route.Results
There were no significant differences in neonatal mortality between the cesarean delivery group and vaginal delivery group [56/351 (15.9%) vs. 71/359 (19.8%), P=0.20]. VLBW infants delivered by the cesarean procedure had a higher incidence of respiratory distress syndrome than those born by the vaginal route [221/351 (63.0%) vs. 178/359 (49.6%), P<0.001]. There were no differences in other neonatal morbidities, including intraventricular hemorrhage [126/351 (35.9%) vs. 134/359 (37.3%), P=0.69], bronchopulmonary dysplasia [39/351 (11%) vs. 31/359 (8.6%), P=0.38] and necrotising enterocolitis [40/351 (11.4%) vs. 32/359 (8.9%), P=0.32] between the two groups. The incidence of poor neurodevelopment after cesarean delivery was similar to that after vaginal delivery [105/351 (29.9) vs. 104/359 (29.0%), P=0.78].Conclusions
In neither neurodevelopment nor neonatal mortality did cesarean birth offered significant advantages to VLBW infants. Moreover, the operation might be associated with an increased risk of respiratory distress syndrome for VLBW infants. The mode of delivery of VLBW infants should be largely based on obstetric indications and maternal considerations rather than perceived better outcomes for the neonate. 相似文献9.

Badd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) is a rare disorder clinically characterised by pain abdomen, hepatomegaly and ascites. We observed 3 children with BCS. Histopathology of biopsy specimen of liver was diagnostic. One child had developed cirrhosis of liver because of long standing venous congestion. Inferior vena cavography (IVC-graphy) and percutaneous hepatography were helpful to localise the site and extent of obstruction. The cause of occulsion of hepatic vein (HV) and inferior vena cava (IVC) could not be identified. One child showed spontaneous improvement. Other two children had progressive disease. Early recognition of the syndrome can help the patient, in presence of operable causes. 相似文献

Background
The hypoparathyroidism, deafness and renal dysplasia (HDR) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder primarily caused by GATA3 gene mutation. We report here a case that both of a Chinese boy and his father had HDR syndrome which caused by a novel mutation of GATA3.Methods
Polymerase chain reaction and DNA sequencing was performed to detect the exons of the GATA3 gene for mutation analysis.Results
Sequence analysis of GATA3 revealed a heterozygous nonsense mutation in this family: a mutation of GATA3 at exon 2 (c.515C >A) that resulted in a premature stop at codon 172 (p.S172X) with a loss of two zinc finger domains.Conclusion
We identified a novel nonsense mutation which will expand the spectrum of HDR-associated GATA3 mutations. 相似文献11.
Histiocytosis X is a spectrum of diseases which should be classified among the wide spectrum of histiocytic disorders, consisting of proliferation of the Mononuclear Phagocyte System (MPS). The clinical manifestations reflect the site of histiocytic proliferation and may vary from a solitary bone lesion discovered by chance on X-ray film to a disease with a rapidly fatal course affecting almost any organ. The classic classification into eosinophilic granuloma of bone, Hand-Schüller-Christian disease and Letterer-Siwe disease and other related classifications fail to demonstrate the variable course and the smooth transitions, and do not correlate with the histologic findings and prognosis. The features of the immature and mature macrophage and, in this connection, the histologic findings of non-cutaneous material and the histochemical studies allow a classification into:
- Benign Histiocytosis X
- Solitary or multiple bone lesions
- Benign disseminated Histiocytosis X
- Malignant Histiocytosis X.

Two types of Pneumocystis carinii infections must be distinguished:
- Interstitial plasmacell pneumonia, which occurs only in premature or in marasmic infants between the 10th and 24th week of life. It is most frequently associated with severe diarrhoea, atrophy of the bowel mucosa and IgG levels of below 200 mg%. Pneumocystis carinii organisms spread rapidly throughout the alveoli of all pulmonary lobes in these debilitated infants. The capsular antigen of the Pneumocystis carinii cysts elicits a massive plasmacell infiltration of the alveolar septa, which is accompanied by immuneglobulin production of IgM type. This reaction occurs within 24 to 48 hrs and leads frequently to death. Morphometric counts on 65 cases showed that up to 78% of the entire lung space was formed by septa distended with plasmacells and proplasmacells. The organisms disappear from the alveoli within 2 to 3 days due to the hosts IgM antibody response. The cellular infiltrate persists and may in itself cause suffocation. Complete clearing of the interstitial infiltrate takes 6–8 weeks. This sudden massive infiltration of the entire lung does not occur in all cases. Pneumocystis carinii organisms occur frequently in the subpleural posterior alveoli, eliciting a minor focal interstitial plasmacell response, which remains clinically undetected.
- Hypoergic Pneumocystosis may occur at any age and is associated with congenital immunedeficiency diseases, diseases of the reticulo-endothelial system and immunosuppressive therapy leading to IgG deficiency. No host response to the organism occurs under these circumstances. Morphometric counts on 51 human lungs showed no interstitial inflammatory infiltrate. The septa may occasionally be distended by neoplastic infiltrates of reticulo-endothelial type as for instance in plasmacell myeloma, lymphoma or leukaemia, which is the cause rather than the result of the Pneumocystosis.

Background
Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) could aid in the diagnosis of biliary atresia, a hepatic pathology with thin, irregular or interrupted biliary ducts. There is little published evidence of MRCP appearances in normal neonates and young infants.Objective
To assess the use of MR cholangiopancreatography in visualizing the biliary tree in neonates and infants younger than 3 months with no hepatobiliary disorder, and to assess this visibility in relationship to the child’s age, weight, and sedation and fasting states.Materials and methods
Between December 2008 and October 2010 our department performed MRI of the brain, orbits and face on 16 full-term neonates and infants. Each child was younger than 3 months (90 days) and without any hepatobiliary disorders. The children were scanned with a respiratory-gated 0.54?×?0.51?×?0.4-mm3 3-D MRCP sequence. We used a reading grid to assess subjectively the visibility of the extrahepatic bile ducts along with extrahepatic bile duct confluence. The visibility of the extrahepatic bile duct confluence was assessed against age, weight, and sedation and fasting states.Results
The extrahepatic bile duct confluence was seen in 10 children out of 16 (62.5%). In the neonate sub-group (corrected age younger than 30 days), the MRCP was technically workable and the extrahepatic bile duct confluence was seen in four cases out of eight (50%). This visualization was up to 75% in the subgroup older than 30 days. However, statistically there was no significant difference in visibility of the extrahepatic bile duct confluence in relationship to age, weight or MRCP performance conditions (feeding, fasting or sedation).Conclusion
The complete normal biliary system (extrahepatic bile duct confluence included) is not consistently visualized in infants younger than 3 months old on non-enhanced MRCP. Thus the use of MRCP to exclude a diagnosis of biliary atresia is compromised at optimal time of surgery. 相似文献16.

Purpose
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the concomitant problems in infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). We assessed risk factors of GERD in CDH patients.Methods
The retrospective observational study for CDH infants was conducted. Cases of CDH who were born between January 2006 and December 2010, were operated in the 9 participating institutions, and survived to discharge were included. Completion of medical therapy for GERD and incidence of surgery were primary outcomes. Kaplan–Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression were used.Results
In 182 cases of CDH, the medical therapies for GERD were performed in 23.8 % (40/168), and were completed in 60.0 % (24/40). Prenatal detection of CDH (HR 5.87, CI 1.6–18.8, p = 0.012) and tube feeding at discharge (HR 5.04, 95 % CI 1.3–33.1, p = 0.016) were significantly correlated with unsuccessful weaning from medical therapy. Surgery for GERD was performed in 10.7 % (18/169). Gestational age (HR 4.78, 95 % CI 1.5–21.1, p = 0.006) and diaphragmatic defect of more than 75 % (HR 4.3, 95 % CI 1.6–12.9, p = 0.005) were significantly correlated with need for antireflux surgery.Conclusion
Diaphragmatic defect of more than 75 % was risk factor of future need for antireflux surgery. 相似文献17.
We report an unusual presentation of Henoch-Schönlein purpura in a 4-year-old boy. He presented with two isolated episodes of tender testicular swelling, and 11 months after the first episode developed a full blown picture of Henoch-Schönlein purpura accompanied by orchitis. A latent period of orchitis preceding Henoch-Schönlein purpura of this duration has not been described previously and its clinical implications are discussed. 相似文献

Purpose
The use of dexamethasone (Dx) stimulates growth, fetal lung maturation and can improve pulmonary hypertension in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Our aim was to evaluate the effect of Dx on the lung after fetal pulmonary ventilation in the CDH rat model.Methods
Some groups underwent prenatal treatment with dexamethasone (0.4 mg/kg) that was given at 18.5 gestational day (GD). Sprague–Dawley rat fetuses were divided into groups: control (C); ventilated control (CV); control exposed to dexamethasone (CDx); ventilated control exposed to dexamethasone (CVDx); congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), ventilated CDH (CDHV), CDH exposed to dexamethasone (CDHDx) and ventilated CDH exposed to dexamethasone (CDHVDx). At 21.5 GD fetuses were delivered by C-section, weighed and ventilated for 30 min. We analyzed the lung morphometry by Masson’s Trichrome stain, and VEGF, VEGFR1, VEGFR2 and NOS3 expression by immunohistochemistry.Results
All fetuses with CDH, with or without prenatal dexamethasone showed lung and body weight lower than control fetuses (p < 0.05). All groups that received dexamethasone showed a decrease in the medial muscular layer of arterioles, the internal diameter of the air spaces (Lma) and length of parenchymal transection/airspace ratio (p < 0.05). In the immunohistochemistry, VEGF decreased more in CDHDV group (p < 0.05). VEGFR1 showed no difference, whereas VEGFR2 decreased significantly in the CDHDV group (p < 0.05). NOS3 increased in the group CDHDV (p < 0.05).Conclusion
The use of prenatal dexamethasone added to ventilation alters the VEGF and NO pathways. 相似文献19.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentration and urinary excretion of cyclic adenosine-3′,5′-monophosphate (cAMP) were measured in children aged from 3 days to 15 years by the protein-binding method of Gilman (1970). The mean CSF cAMP concentration (22.4±0.6 (S.E.) nmol/l) of 24 “healthy” children tended to be lower (P<0.2) than that of adult patients who revealed no pathological findings on clinical examination. No difference in the results was found between the sexes. High cAMP concentrations were found in CSF of children suffering from cerebellar glioma, hypothalamic precocious puberty, bacterial meningitis, or Cushing's disease. The urinary excretion of cAMP varied from 0.2 to 5.3 in “healthy” and from 1.3 to 7.6 μmol/24 hrs in diseased children. Two children with pheochromocytoma showed a striking decrease in the rate of urinary excretion of the nucleotide after surgical treatment. 相似文献
