Bilateral Congenital Diaphragm Agenesis in a Neonate with Hydrocephalus: Case Report

ABSTRACT: Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is one of the most common anomalies in neonates. Diaphragmatic agenesis (DA) is rare and is considered at the extreme spectrum of CDH, it is associated with a higher rate of multiple anomalies. A male neonate with antenatal diagnosis of CDH and hydrocephalus was born at estimated gestational age of 36 + 4 weeks by emergency Caesarean section due to fetal distress. Chest x-ray showed a common pleuroperitoneal cavity with the liver, spleen, and stomach seen in the thoracic cavity suggesting the diagnosis of bilateral absence of the diaphragm, the neonate died after an hour and a half. DA associated with hydrocephalus has never been previously reported in the literature.

A Phenotype and Genotype Case Report of a Neonate With Congenital Bilateral Coronary Artery Fistulas and Multiple Collateral Arteries.

Project description:We report a unique case of an 18-day-old girl with three coronary artery fistulas to the right atrium and right ventricle, respectively: three collateral arteries arising from the descending aorta and one from the right subclavian artery draining through a sac to the top of the right atrium, patent ductus arteriosus, and atrial septal defect. She presented symptoms of acute congestive heart failure. Cardiac catheterization and surgical interventions were performed to repair the defects. The patient recovered uneventfully and grew up well at 3 years of follow-up. Whole-genome sequencing (WES) in the patient, compared to her parents, showed 17 variants within 11 genes. Among these, only compound heterozygous mutation, c.T470G (p.L157R) and c.A1622G (p.D541G), in the DRC1 gene have been reportedly related to congenital heart disease and are the most likely causative in our patient.

Trisomy 5p with bilateral congenital diaphragmatic hernia: a case report

Project description:Background Bilateral congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is very rare. A few studies have reported the pathogenic role of 5p in CDH. Case presentation A 23-year-old primigravida Japanese woman was referred for the following abnormal findings at 33 weeks of gestation: polyhydramnios, macroglossia, talipes equinovarus, and levocardia. A marker chromosome was detected by amniocentesis. Fluorescence in situ hybridization with whole chromosome paint 5 and nucleolus organizer region probes confirmed its origin from chromosome 5 and an acrocentric chromosome. The karyotype of the fetus was diagnosed as 47, XY, +mar. ish +mar(WCP5+). At 39 + 5 weeks, a 2462 g male infant was delivered, with a specific facial configuration. Bilateral CDH, hypoplasia of the corpus callosum, atrial septal defect, and hypothyroidism were also detected in the baby. The karyotype of the peripheral blood was consistent with that of the amniocentesis. Conclusion Genes coded on 5p might be associated with the pathogenesis of CDH; however, further investigation is required.

Bilateral congenital absence of the internal carotid arteries: a case report.

Project description:Congenital absence of the internal carotid artery is a rare occurrence. Even more infrequent are cases where the patient has a bilateral absence of the internal carotid arteries. Reported is a case of a 52-year-old woman who presented with optic nerve neuropathy, and was incidentally discovered to have a congenital bilateral absence of her internal carotid arteries. During computed tomography angiography imaging looking for cerebral venous thrombosis, related to her preexisting condition of bilateral elevated optic discs and residual left optic neuropathy, the findings were made. The absence of the arteries is not always recognizably symptomatic, with most findings being incidental through imaging studies only. This is because collateral flow allows for sufficient cerebral circulation. However, this condition puts such patients at higher risk for conditions such as aneurysms and subsequently strokes where the collateral flow exists.

Case Report: Isolate Congenital Coronary Artery Fistula With Giant Artery Aneurysm in a Neonate.

Project description:A rare case of neonatal congenital coronary artery, right ventricle fistula with giant coronary artery aneurysm formation, was reported. Computed tomography angiography demonstrated the dilated and tortuous tunnel arising from the right aortic sinus and traversing the epicardial surface before opening into the anterolateral aspect of the RV. Successful surgical repair was performed with a patch closure of the fistula and coronary angioplasty. The postoperative recovery was uneventful. Our experience of this rare congenital heart disease demonstrated that early surgical repair of coronary artery fistula and coronary angioplasty in the neonate can be performed safely. Further study is needed to seek the basis on this.

Novel KDM6A splice-site mutation in kabuki syndrome with congenital hydrocephalus: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundKabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare congenital anomaly syndrome affecting multiple organs. Two genes have been shown to be mutated in patients with KS: lysine (K)-specific demethylase 6A (KDM6A) and lysine (K)-specific methyltransferase 2D (KMT2D, formerly MLL2). Although the congenital clinical characteristic is helpful in diagnosis of the KS, there are no reports of specific findings in fetuses that might suggest the syndrome prenatally.Case presentationIn this study, we described a male patient with a novel KDM6A splicing in exon(exon4) and flanking intron(intron3)-exon boundaries characterized by congenital hydrocephalus which had never been reported before. The male patient had inherited the c.335-1G > T splice site mutation from his mother who had fewer dysmorphic features than the patient who displayed a more severe phenotype with multiple organ involvement. Our research suggests that congenital hydrocephalus may accompany KS type 2, which improve the knowledge on KS further more.ConclusionsBased on genetic and clinical features, suggest that the c.335-1G > T splicing mutation in KDM6A causing KS-2 disease. At least for this case, we suggest that congenital hydrocephalus is closely associated with KS type 2.

Case report: Severe presentation of a syndromic congenital bilateral upper eyelids eversion.

Project description:Introductionand importance: Congenital upper eyelid eversion (CUEE) is a rare congenital condition characterized by everted upper eyelids with prominent chemosis. The authors present the first case of concurrent upper eyelids eversion, umbilical hernia, and clubfeet.Case presentationA four-hour-old newborn male presented with bilateral red upper eyelids swelling. Ophthalmic examination revealed bilateral upper eyelids eversion and severe bilateral chemosis. The further pediatric evaluation showed a painless reducible umbilical hernia and clubfeet. Treatment of the eyelids eversion was conservative, combining topical steroids, antibiotics and lubricants. Chemosis reduced progressively. We obtained a complete resolution on day 21. We referred the neonate to the pediatric surgery, and orthopedic department for umbilical hernia and clubfeet management.Clinical discussionMost infants with CUEE may show excellent anatomic and functional results with conservative treatment if managed timely and promptly.ConclusionThe innocuous appearance of CUEE must not prevent clinicians from investigating possible systemic associations and initiating appropriate treatment.

Initial resuscitation of a neonate with congenital maxillomandibular syngnathia: A case report and literature review.

Project description:We report a full-term male neonate found to have undiagnosed syngnathia requiring extensive resuscitation at birth followed by urgent tracheostomy. We conducted a systematic literature review to study the presentation, resuscitation methods, and outcomes of neonates with congenital syngnathia. Of the 174 cases reported to date, 91 had initial resuscitation data available. Extensive resuscitation was required in 16 of these 91 infants (18%). This ranged from nasal intubation to emergent tracheostomy. These neonates are potentially higher risk deliveries for which methods in addition to those recommended by the American Heart Association neonatal resuscitation guidelines may be needed.

Congenital tuberculosis in a neonate following <i>in vitro</i> fertilization-embryo transfer: A case report.

Project description:BackgroundCongenital tuberculosis is becoming increasingly common, but congenital tuberculosis infection in neonates following in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) has been rarely reported; a diagnosis of congenital tuberculosis is often delayed due to the non-specificity of maternal IVF treatments and clinical manifestations during pregnancy-particularly in low-birth-weight preterm infants.Case presentationWe herein report a case of congenital tuberculosis. The infant was born at 27+5 weeks of gestation and was admitted to the hospital due to hypopnea after birth. Due to a poor response to treatment, we conducted pathogenic microorganism metagenomic analysis to assess the nucleotide sequences within the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. After collecting sputum, the strains from the tuberculosis analysis were isolated and confirmed. From a detailed examination of the mother and in accordance with the child's congenital tuberculosis, we confirmed the diagnosis of pelvic tuberculosis.ConclusionIVF treatment and pregnancy can exacerbate latent tuberculosis, especially in women from a family with a history of tuberculosis infections. We posit that the optimal way to prevent neonatal congenital tuberculosis in IVF-ET is to procure a detailed maternal medical or family history and to identify and treat maternal tuberculosis during IVF treatment.

A rare case of congenital chylothorax in a Palestinian neonate.

Project description:Congenital chylothorax (CCT) is a rare condition which is characterized by an accumulation of lymphatic fluid in the pleural space and exposes the newborn to respiratory distress and losing of proteins, coagulation factors and immunoglobulins. These cases are liable to have sepsis and high mortality rate. We report a case of a female fetus in Gaza delivered at 36 weeks gestational age diagnosed with CCT. The antenatal ultrasonography showed right sided significant pleural effusion and at birth; she had severe respiratory distress. The baby was intubated at birth and right-sided chest tube drain inserted to drain the pleural fluid which was chylus. The case responded partially to intravenous (IV) octreotide and sildenafil. Chylus stopped completely after 2 days of treatment with octreotide and medium chains triglyceride (MCT) oil-based formula feeding. Conclusion: A female newborn diagnosed with right-sided pleural effusion by antenatal scan was confirmed to have congenital chylothorax postnataly. The infant responded to IV octreotide and MCT based formula feeding.
