Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the most common chronic diseases in children. However, it remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. Its prevalence has increased recent years varies from 2 to 25 %. Symptoms include sneezing, itching, runny nose, nasal congestion. A correct diagnosis treatment AR its comorbidities such as rhinosinusitis with or without polyposis, conjunctivitis, otitis media, bronchial asthma respiratory tract infections, are important reduce negative impact on quality life...
Primary immunodeficiencies (PID) are low-prevalence diseases. There warning signs that may raise clinical suspicion. The objectives of this study were to describe the characteristics and patients with PID compare differences between selective immunoglobulin A (IgA) deficiency other PIDs. Eighty-nine studied; their median age at time diagnosis was 6 years old (4.08-11.67). Fifty-three (59.5%) male. Fifty-four (60.7%) had IgA deficiency, 35 (39.3%) main manifestations rhinopharyngitis in 65...

Latex allergy, or natural rubber latex allergy (NRLA), is a global health concern, even among the pediatric population, with symptoms varying in severity from mild to potentially life-threatening. derived Hevea Brasiliensis tree, producing twelve million tons annually for use various everyday and medical products. Despite efforts mitigate NRLA, its prevalence remains high, especially at- risk groups such as children spina bifida. Clinical manifestations include immediate delayed symptoms,...
The link between upper and lower airways is recognized clinically as a “unique airway”. Subclinical spirometric abnormalities have been observed in patients with rhinitis without asthma, which could be proportional to severity. To investigate possible subclinical alterations lung function bronchodilator reversibility children adolescents allergic (AR) non-allergic (NAR) according the clinical grade of classified by ARIA (Allergic Rhinitis Its Impact on Asthma). In cross-sectional analytical...
There is subclinical bronchial inflammation in patients with allergic rhinitis (AR). less evidence of the lower airway non-allergic (NAR).To investigate by exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) AR and NAR without asthma its link to lung function, severity rhinitis, biomarkers atopy.A cross-sectional study aged 6 18 years, or asthma. Spirometry, serum IgE, blood eosinophil count FeNO were carried out. Rhinitis was classified according ARIA guide.Forty included; 28 12 NAR. Patients showed higher levels...
Histoplasmosis is an endemic fungal infection caused by the fungus Histoplasma capsulatum.The disseminated form associated with a high morbidity and mortality in pediatrics.Here we report case of immunocompetent female patient diagnosed histoplasmosis.She was 3 years old presented protracted febrile syndrome hepatosplenomegaly confirmed ultrasound.Lab tests showed normocytic anemia leukopenia.Diagnosis made periportal perisplenic lymph node biopsy.The culture positive for capsulatum...
Nasal obstruction (NO) is the most irritating symptom of chronic rhinitis (CR). The results studies that correlated subjective and objective methods NO in children adults were contradictory.To analyze correlation between scales peak nasal inspiratory flow (PNIF) measurements compare assessment PNIF by age.Participants patients with CR. using a visual analog scale (NO-VAS) Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) airflow measurement pre- post-vasoconstrictor administration was estimated....
Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is an X-linked genetic disorder caused by mutations in the gene that encodes protein (WASp).Here, we report clinical case of 18-month-old boy diagnosed with syndrome, who did not have HLA-matched related or unrelated donor and was treated successfully a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) from haploidentical family donor.Graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis included post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy).At day +30, peripheral blood-nucleated...
