Although Saccharomyces boulardii is usually a non-pathogenic fungus, in rare occasions it can cause invasive infection children. We present the case of an 8-year-old patient pediatric surgical intensive care unit who developed S. cerevisiae fungemia following probiotic treatment containing boulardii. Caspofungin was not effective this and he treated with amphotericin B. want to emphasize that physicians should be careful about usage critically ill patients.
<i>Background:</i> The number of children on home mechanical ventilation (HMV) has increased markedly in Europe and North America but little is known about the HMV use outcomes Turkey. <i>Objective:</i> To review clinical conditions outcome who were discharged from hospital respiratory support. <i>Methods:</i> Thirty-four patients assessed at Marmara University Hospital Istanbul had been receiving ventilatory support for more than 3 months included study....
Objective: Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare form of highly aggressive sarcoma and despite multimodal therapy, mortality still remains high. The aim the study to review our experience in cytoreductive surgery (CRS) hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) children with DSRCT. Patients Methods: A retrospective patients DSRCT followed institution between January 2020-January 2024 was performed. Demographics, radiological imaging, histopathology results, cytogenetic...
Background We hypothesize that Lung Clearance Index (LCI) would be superior to spirometry in diagnosing early-stage respiratory diseases earlier and, more precisely, patients who received medical or surgical treatment for empyema. Methods Children over five diagnosed with empyema at least six months ago were recruited. In addition, a control group was created from healthy individuals between the ages of 5 18 years. Spirometry and LCI performed both groups. Results The spirometric values...
Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly among critical pediatric surgical patients. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence, distribution, types, pathogens involved in HAIs, newly established surgery intensive care unit (PSICU). The Infection Control Team Marmara University Pendik Training Research Hospital identified documented HAI cases according Centers for Disease Prevention criteria over four-year period following...
Objective: The aim of the study is to review oncological and surgical strategies for Wilms tumor (WT) with intravascular thrombus extension at our institution. Patients Methods: Medical records patients WT treated in institution between June 2012 2024 were retrospectively reviewed. Among these data, identified. Demographics, imaging studies determine initial level thrombus, management outcomes analyzed. Results: During this period 51 Seven (6 male, 1 female) identified (13%). median age was...
Abstract Introduction The data of the Turkish Esophageal Atresia Registry (TEAR) was evaluated to define outcome very low birth weight (VLBW) and BW (LWB) infants with esophageal atresia (EA). Materials Methods registered by 24 centers between 2014 2018 were for demographic features, prenatal findings, associated anomalies, surgical treatment, outcome. Patients enrolled in three groups according their BWs (VLBW <1,500 g), LWB = 1,500–2,500 normal (NBW; >2,500 g). Results Among 389...
Contradictory supranormal renal function (SRF) in unilateral hydronephrosis is a debatable subject resulting from the methodology of nuclear renography or characteristics patient. In this study, we aimed to investigate frequency and comparison SRF with MAG-3 scans by 8 different technical analyses pediatric hydronephrosis.We reviewed Tc-99m 82 children (52 male, 30 female, mean age: 47.7 +/- 64.5 months). Of 82, 34 also had DMSA scans. Data were reprocessed 4 regions background activity...
Abstract Niemann‐Pick disease (NPD) is a rare, autosomal‐recessively inherited lipid storage which characterized by intracellular deposition of sphingomyelin in various body tissues. The heterogeneous and classified into six groups. Pulmonary parenchymal involvement may be feature several subtypes NPD, including type B. Progressive pulmonary NPD B major cause morbidity mortality. It usually diagnosed at older ages. Only few cases with early have been reported. In this report, patient B,...
Abstract Background Congenital lung malformations (CLM) are rare disorders and surgical intervention is the definitive treatment. Our aim to evaluate long‐term function of patients with CLM after surgery compared healthy children. Methods Sixteen children (M/F: 9/7) 30 age‐matched, controls 13/17) were included in study. Demographic data recorded both groups by spirometry nitrogen‐based Lung Clearance Index (LCI). Results Mean ± SD age was 12.0 5.4 years. The mean forced expiratory volume 1...

Our aim was to investigate the contribution FB diagnosis therapy in children admitted intensive care units (ICU) evaluate safety this vulnerable population.Children less than 18 years age who underwent five neonatal pediatric ICUs Istanbul between July 1st, 2015 2020 were included study. Demographic clinical data including indications, findings, complications, management...
Abstract Introduction Anastomotic stricture (AS) is the second most common complication after esophageal atresia (EA) repair. We aimed to evaluate data in Turkish Esophageal Atresia Registry determine risk factors for AS development EA repair a large national cohort of patients. Methods The between 2015 and 2021 were evaluated. Patients enrolled into two groups according occurrence AS. with (AS group) without (non-AS compared demographic operative features, postoperative intubation status,...
Abstract Endobronchial tuberculosis (EBTB) and chylothorax are rare clinical disorders. The concurrence of these two disorders as manifestations childhood pulmonary has not been reported. We report a 4‐month‐old boy presenting with the initial presentation that successfully treated octreotide, antituberculosis drugs steroid therapy.

The topsy-turvy heart is characterized by a global 90°clockwise rotation around the heart’s long axis. This displaces all basal great arteries inferiorly and posteriorly, resulting in elongation stretching of brachiocephalic bronchi. To date, reports only four living cases have been published literature. We report here three new cases, with additional aortopulmonary window defects, present their morphological details, clinical presentations, our management.
