Abstract Objectives Neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT) is a rare condition characterized by inactivating mutations in the calcium-sensing receptor ( CaSR ) gene, leading to significant hypercalcemia and related complications. Case presentation We present case of six-day-old male infant with weakness, jaundice, hypotonia, later diagnosed NSHPT due known homozygous mutation (c.242T>A; p.I81K). Initial laboratory findings revealed markedly elevated serum calcium levels high...
Umbilical granuloma is a small swelling composed of granulation tissue at the base umbilicus.It relatively common problem in neonatal period, encountering after separation umbilical cord.The thought to develop response subclinical infection or inadequate epithelialization cord stump.The main clinical symptoms are discharge and swelling.Physical examination shows small, moist, fragile pinkish/red lesion umbilicus.Besides some benign soft tumors, vitellin duct anomalies urachal remnants should...
Ectopic intrathyroidal thymus tissue that may be present as a thyroid nodule is rarely reported. We case of 4-year-old boy with solitary nodule. Real-time ultrasound showed calcified in the right lobe. Complete blood count, serum calcitonin, and thyroglobulin concentration were normal antithyroid antibodies negative. Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy was revealed inadequate for cytological examination. During his follow-up, nodular enlargement found, patient subjected to surgical total...
Abstract Severe ischemia or necrosis of glans penis is rare. We report the case an 11‐year‐old boy with severe glanular occurring 24 h after circumcision. This was successfully treated pentoxifylline injection for 5 days, and while black color changed to brownish at 48 h, appearances were close normal days. The patient did not require any surgical intervention, discharged without sequelae. suggest that might be considered as a treatment choice penis.
Objective To evaluate the effect of chemical sympathectomy on lactic acid and hypoxanthine concentrations in both testes during unilateral testicular torsion a rat experimental model. Materials methods Four groups, comprising 10 rats each, were studied. Group I was control group, II received placebo underwent torsion, Groups III IV guanethidine monosulphate 6‐OH‐dopamine hydrobromide respectively, torsion. The levels measured. Results In significantly elevated when compared to group. groups...

Midline dorsal plication is an efficient and safe surgical technique to correct chordee. We investigated the efficacy of midline for recurrent chordee in complicated hypospadias reoperations.We retrospectively evaluated charts 25 boys who underwent reoperation between 1999 2004 due complications primary repair other than meatal stenosis. A total 15 cases were initially managed elsewhere or complications. The etiology was defined at correction. When noted a performed.Of patients 10 had...
Considerable efforts have been made to find and/or eliminate the underyling causes of hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury, but many points are still unclear. Pentoxifylline-related cytoprotection is one these unclear points. Our study tests effects pentoxifylline on cytoprotective process in an experimental model.The animals were divided into two groups: (1) placebo-pretreated rats and (2) pentoxifylline-pretreated rats. After pretreatment, all underwent procedure which was performed by...
Hepatoblastoma is rare cancer that responds well to risk-based chemotherapy, and surgical treatment needed achieve complete remission satisfactory survival rates in hepatoblastoma patients. In this study, we evaluated the clinical features outcomes of pediatric patients treated our clinic.Eighteen with who were followed up center between June 1999 2020 analyzed retrospectively. All by a multidisciplinary team managed using protocol (SIOPEL-1 SIOPEL-3).The patients' mean age at diagnosis was...
Summary Background: We aimed to randomly compare intubating conditions, recovery characteristics and neuromuscular effects of single dose mivacurium (0.2 mg·kg −1 ) during sevoflurane vs. propofol anesthesia in 60 healthy children, undergoing inguinal surgery. Methods: All children were allocated receive 2 iv or 8% inspired concentration for induction anesthesia. Anaesthesia was maintained with 66% nitrous oxide oxygen 100–120 μ g·kg approximately 2–3% controlled ventilation. The ulnar nerve...
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Thyroidectomy is a relatively uncommon procedure in pediatric patients. We aimed to review our 20-year experience of thyroid surgery. METHODS: A total 39 patients who underwent surgery from 2003 2023 were retrospectively evaluated. All followed preoperatively and postoperatively by institutional multidisciplinary board. Patients divided into two groups based on their pathologies: benign malignant. RESULTS: In total, (27 girls 12 boys) 47 surgeries (total thyroidectomy 19...
Mixed gonadal dysgenesis (MGD) is an uncommon chromosomal Disorder of Sexual Development (DSD). There insufficient information regarding clinical findings and growth patterns. This study aimed to provide more about mixed dysgenesis, which has not yet been sufficiently defined. Data from 10 patients diagnosed with were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical presentations, complaints at admission, imaging, genetic results, treatments received by the examined. Gonadal status gender reared evaluated...
