To prospectively evaluate demographic, anthropometric and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in pediatric patients with laboratory-confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Carnevale FC, de Tarso Machado A, Moreira AM, dos Santos ACB, da Motta‐Leal‐Filho JM, Suzuki L, Cerri GG, Tannuri U. Long‐term results of the percutaneous transhepatic venoplasty portal vein stenoses after pediatric liver transplantation. Pediatr Transplantation 2011: 15: 476–481. © 2011 John Wiley & Sons A/S. Abstract: This paper has objective to evaluate retrospectively long‐term treatment PV LT. During an eight‐yr period, 15 children with underwent PTA balloon dilation or stent...
The aims of this study were to analyze the pulmonary function childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE) patients and identify possible correlations between high-resolution computed chest tomography (HRCT) score, disease activity, cumulative damage, participants' quality life.Forty cSLE patients, median age: 14.1 years (range: 7.4-17.9), underwent spirometry plethysmography. Carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DLCO), HRCT, life assessed.Pulmonary abnormalities evident in 19/40...
To describe the radiological findings in pediatric patients with hematological or oncological diseases who also have an invasive fungal infection (IFI).This was a retrospective study of all IFI admitted to hematology and oncology hospital Brazil between 2008 2014. Clinical demographic data were collected. Chest computed tomography (CT) scans reviewed by two independent radiologists.We evaluated chest CT 40 diagnosed IFI. Twenty-seven (67.5%) had nodules halo sign, seven (17.5%) cavities,...
OBJECTIVES: 1) To verify clinical signs correlated with appropriate cranial computed tomography scan indications and changes in the therapeutic approach pediatric minor head trauma scenarios.2) estimate radiation exposure of scans low dose protocols context additional associated risk.METHODS: Investigators reviewed medical records all children trauma, which was defined as a Glasgow coma scale X13 at time admission to emergency room, who underwent during years 2013 2014.A change neurosurgical...
The classical method for arterial reconstruction in pediatric living donor liver transplantation using left lateral segment consists of end-to-end anastomosis between the hepatic artery and recipient right artery. In present case, an intra-operative thrombosis occurred because extensive intima wall dissection patient was a 6-yr-old boy with fulminant failure, who underwent partial from his father. graft irrigated by accessory gastric artery, both arteries diameter <2 mm. These were...
To describe the incidence, diagnosis, and management of systemic arterial hypertension related to renal artery stenosis in patients with Williams-Beuren syndrome.Sixty-five syndrome were evaluated for hypertension. Enrolled underwent Doppler sonography arteries echocardiography. Those sonography-detected lesions or normal but severe computed tomography gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography aorta vessels. Patients needing vascular therapeutic intervention conventional...
Thanatophoric dysplasia (TD) is one of the most common lethal skeletal dysplasias, which was first designated as thanatophoric dwarfism and described in 1967. The authors report a case Caucasian girl with TD, born to 31-year-old woman without comorbidities. newborn presented respiratory distress immediately after delivery, progressing death less than 2 hours. An autopsy carried out postmortem tomographic examination. findings depicted extensive malformations system brain. aim this discuss...
To compare demographic/clinical/laboratory/treatments and outcomes among children adolescents with laboratory-confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).This was a cross-sectional study that included patients diagnosed pediatric COVID-19 (aged <18 years) between April 11, 2020 22, 2021. During this period, 102/5,951 (1.7%) of all admissions occurred in neonates, children, adolescents. Furthermore, 3,962 severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) detection samples were processed aged...
Abstract Background Acute chest syndrome (ACS) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in sickle cell patients, it often challenging to establish its diagnosis. Procedure This was prospective observational study conducted pediatric emergency (PEM) department. We aimed investigate the performance characteristics point‐of‐care lung ultrasound (LUS) for diagnosing ACS children. LUS by trained PEM physicians performed interpreted as either positive or negative consolidation. results were...
Summary Objective: To describe clinical features, tomographic findings and pulmonary function in pediatric patients with primary hypogammaglobulinemia (PH). Method: A retrospective cohort study of children PH who received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) prophylactic antibiotics between 2005 2010. Epidemiological computed tomography (CT) findings, spirometric data were compared, assuming a 5% significance level. Results: We evaluated 30 PH. After the start IVIG replacement, there was...
Ultrasound guided injection of botulinum toxin into the salivary glands children with neurological disorders
In the current pandemic, caused by infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, ultrasound has played a fundamental role in patients who develop resulting disease, designated disease 2019 (COVID-19). this study we present images of lungs neonates suspected or confirmed diagnosis COVID-19, distinguishing between changes related to COVID-19 and those unrelated disease. Ultrasound examinations were performed pediatric sonographer. A total 27 evaluated. Among presented no...
Abstract We present a case of microcephaly associated with Zika virus (ZIKV) in chronological, multimodal imaging approach, illustrating the hallmarks this disease on intrauterine morphological ultrasound, transfontanelar computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MRI). also determined serological e immunological status mother newborn. Noticeably, there was evidence for maternal infection by ZIKV, cytomegalovirus (CMV), herpes simplex (HSV), dengue (DENV) Toxoplasma gondii , which...
The aim of this report was to present a selection focal hyperechoic liver lesions different etiologies, illustrating the wide spectrum diagnostic possibilities for such in pediatric population.Apresentamos uma seleção de lesões focais hiperecogênicas hepáticas diversas etiologias, que ilustram o grande espectro diferentes possibilidades diagnósticas dessas na faixa pediátrica, muito além dos hemangiomas.
Pulmonary involvement in juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) is frequent and associated with poor outcome. However, a systematic assessment of pulmonary function high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) was rarely reported this population.
