Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome in a 12-year-old Child.

ABSTRACT: The syndrome described by Zollinger and Ellison in 1955 is a rare clinical entity which is even rarer in children. This report describes a 12-year-old boy who presented with refractory peptic ulcer disease which was finally diagnosed to be due to a gastrinoma and was successfully treated.

Melkersson-Rosenthal Syndrome with Genitalia Involved in a 12-Year-Old Boy.

Project description:Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome (MRS) is an uncommon granulomatous disease characterized by the triad of relapsing facial paralysis, orofacial swelling, and fissured tongue. Genital swelling in MRS is rarely reported. We presented the first case of complete MRS with genital swelling in a child. Biopsy examinations of both the child's lower lip and penis showed noncaseating granuloma and intralymphatic granuloma infiltration. No symptoms or signs of other systemic disease (Crohn's disease or sarcoidosis) were observed after 2 years of follow-up. Genetic screening for CARD15/NOD2 in this patient showed negative, which further confirmed the diagnosis of MRS. Eleven other cases of suspected complete or incomplete MRS with genitalia involved were reviewed. Our case emphasizes the specific clinical feature of MRS with genitalia involved, which was genetically different from Crohn's disease and could be an independent entity. Lymphatic obstruction is responsible for localized edema in MRS.

Severe case of staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome in a 5-year-old child - case report.

Project description:Benign impetigo can progress into a potential fatal staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) if prompt diagnosis and correct therapy is not established rapidly. Local and systematic antibiotics as well as Lactulose are crucial in order to stop SSSS from progressing. Burns units should be involved when skin lesions are extensive.

Talus fracture in a 4-year-old child.

Project description:Fracture of the talus is uncommon in childhood. We report a case of talar neck fracture that occurred in a 4-year-old girl. We present the radiological findings, the orthopaedic follow-up and the clinical outcome.

Lipoid proteinosis in a six-year-old child.

Project description:Lipoid proteinosis (LiP) (OMIM 247100) is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by loss of function mutations in the extracellular matrix protein 1 gene, ECM1, on chromosome 1q21. Clinically characterized by hoarseness in early infancy, followed by waxy papules and plaques on the face and body along with pox-like and acneiform scars. We report here a 6-year-old female child with LiP, who presented to our OPD for recurrent vesicullobullous lesions and beaded lesions over eyelid margins.

Bardet-Biedl syndrome: Delayed diagnosis in a 14-year-old child with end-stage renal disease.

Project description:Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a rare autosomal recessive ciliopathic disorder. Because of its low prevalence and wide spectrum of clinical features, many patients remain undiagnosed. We report a case of a 14-year-old boy with a typical phenotype of BBS who remains undiagnosed until the development of end-stage renal disease.

Split-Hand Malformation in a 4-Year-Old Child.

Project description:Split-hand deformity is one of the milder manifestations of a congenital disorder called split-hand/split-foot malformation. We present a case of a 4-year-old child with split-hand malformation in his left hand since birth. A median cleft was present in the affected hand with absence of the 3rd and 4th digits, giving rise to a characteristic lobster-claw appearance. Functionality of the affected hand was modestly impaired. As none of the close family members of the patient had similar limb malformations, the deformity was postulated to arise most likely from a de novo mutation. The patient was discharged after the parents were provided with genetic counseling.

Case report: Miliary tuberculosis complicated by pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome in a 12-year-old girl.

Project description:Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rare complication of miliary tuberculosis, particularly in pediatric patients. Comorbidities and delayed diagnosis can worsen the prognosis of patients with miliary tuberculosis. A 12-year-old girl presented with fever for 20 days, and cough and tachypnea for 4 days. She was diagnosed with miliary tuberculosis complicated by pediatric ARDS. She had atypical clinical manifestations and imaging findings, a negative contact history, and negative results of a tuberculin skin test (TST) and T-SPOT.TB. Diagnostic bronchoscopy and bronchoalveolar lavage helped make the diagnosis of tuberculosis. Effective treatment was promptly initiated after confirmation of the diagnosis, and the patient's condition improved. This case illustrates that a negative contact history and laboratory results cannot rule out tuberculosis. False-negative TST and T-SPOT.TB results should be evaluated carefully. Bronchoscopy may be useful for identifying pathogens in patients with pneumonia of unknown etiology, and corticosteroids should be administered with caution.

Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome: A case report of an 11-year-old child managed for Erb's Palsy.

Project description:Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome (DDMS) is a rare neurological anomaly encompassing clinical features of seizures, contralateral hemiparesis, facial asymmetry, and intellectual dysfunction. Radiographic findings include cerebral hemiatrophy and ipsilateral calvarial thickening. We encountered an 11-year-old male who presented with new-onset seizures and a 4-year history of weakness in the abduction of his right arm, previously being managed as Erb's palsy. Brain MRI revealed atrophy of the left cerebral hemisphere with ipsilateral dilated ventricle and osseous thickening, consistent with the congenital form of DDMS. We present this case of an atypical presentation of DDMS.

Gymnast's wrist in a 12-year-old female with MRI correlation.

Project description:We describe a case of chronic overuse injury of the distal radial physis (gymnast's wrist). While the radiographic appearance of this entity has been reported, there are limited studies highlighting the MR appearance of this entity. This lesion is being seen with increasing frequency in young, elite gymnasts. If this injury goes unrecognized, there is potential for abnormal osseous development, with premature physeal fusion, abnormal joint inclination and even Madelung deformity.
