Concurrent pyoderma gangrenosum and Takayasu arteritis in an infant: diagnostic challenges and treatment considerations
CONCLUSION: In this report, we highlight an infantile case of PG that was subsequently diagnosed as infantile TA. Recognizing the rare association between PG and TA is important. Thorough evaluation and prompt diagnosis of TA in infants with PG can guide further investigations and prevent vascular complications.PMID:38523387 | DOI:10.24953/turkjped.2023.714 (Source: The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics)

A case of crescentic glomerulonephritis with exacerbation of pre-existing IgA nephropathy after COVID-19
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, COVID -19 may pose a high risk for exacerbation of pre-existing glomerular disease. It is therefore necessary to closely monitor the kidney function of patients with underlying glomerulonephritis during and after COVID-19 and consider an early biopsy if serum creatinine does not return to baseline levels. In addition, this case report highlights the clinical importance of the co-occurence of IgAN and Alport syndrome.PMID:38523389 | DOI:10.24953/turkjped.2023.423 (Source: The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics)

Camptodactyly-arthropathy-coxa vara-pericarditis syndrome and an unusual association with mitral stenosis
CONCLUSIONS: The main defect is the proteoglycan 4 protein which acts like a lubricant in articular and visceral surfaces. Therefore, the leading clinical feature is arthropathy. Cardiac involvement other than clinically mild pericarditis is not usually expected. Three types of proteoglycans (decorin, biglycan, and versican) are present in the mitral valve. This could be the reason of mitral valve involvement in rare cases as like ours. It is important that these patients undergo echocardiographic examination regularly.PMID:38523390 | DOI:10.24953/turkjped.2023.647 (Source: The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics)
