Imaging spectrum of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation related neurologic events in children
CONCLUSIONS: Our series revealed PRES in ECMO-related neurologic events in addition to commonly reported thrombotic and hemorrhagic stroke in the literature. Availability of cross-sectional imaging and awareness of radiologists to these complications during ECMO or after weaning help in prompt diagnosis and treatment.PMID:36305438 | DOI:10.24953/turkjped.2022.323

A new life for Lynkin after encephalocele surgery
When you meet Lynkin Bell, the first things you notice are her big personality and chubby cheeks. You might also see how she adores her brother Lukis and hamming it up for the camera. But you’d never guess that this playful 14-month-old from Texas wasn’t expected to survive, never mind talk, stand or play peekaboo like a pro. And yet, thanks to her parents’ faith and persistence — and surgery at Boston Children’s Hospital — Lynkin can do all those things, and lots more, with the gusto befitting any toddler her age. “It’s a miracle,” says Kaylen Gaston, Lynkin’s mom. “We were told so many times she wou...

Decreased Brain Volumes and Infants With Congenital Heart Disease Undergoing Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Conclusions: Patients with d-transposition of the great arteries or single ventricle physiology undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation at our center have a similar incidence of brain injury but more significant impairment of perioperative brain volumes than those not requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

How to use... lupus anticoagulants
Introduction Lupus anticoagulants (LA) were first detected in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in 1952 by Conley and Hartmann.1 They identified patients in whom the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) was prolonged and which did not correct on the addition of normal plasma. Although Conley and Hartmann's original description was in association with a haemorrhagic disorder, subsequent reports from the 1960s highlighted patients with thrombotic events in the presence of LA.2 The term ‘lupus anticoagulant’ was introduced by Feinstein and Rapaport in 1972.3 It has, however, caused some conf...

Changes in Cardiac Function and Cerebral Blood Flow in Relation to Peri/Intraventricular Hemorrhage in Extremely Preterm Infants
Conclusions: Cardiac function and CBF remain stable in very preterm neonates who do not develop P/IVH during the first 3 postnatal days. In very preterm neonates developing P/IVH during this period, lower systemic perfusion and CBF followed by an increase in these variables precede the development of P/IVH. Monitoring cardiac function and cerebral rSO2 may identify infants at higher risk for developing P/IVH before the bleeding occurs.

Cerebral ultrasound abnormalities in offspring of women with C677T homozygous mutation in the MTHFR gene: a prospective study.
CONCLUSIONS: Our data confirmed a high incidence of cerebral abnormalities in neonates born to women with C677T homozygous mutation in the MTHFR gene. cUS at birth proved to be an effective screening tool or a diagnostic test, that should be routinely performed in babies born to mothers with known thrombotic predisposition.

Moyamoya Syndrome Associated with Alagille Syndrome: Outcome after Surgical Revascularization
We report 5 children with ALGS with moyamoya who underwent revascularization surgery. Postsurgical complications included 1 stroke and 1 death from thalamic hemorrhage. Global function improved in survivors. Revascularization is reasonably safe in patients with ALGS and may improve neurologic outcomes.

Childhood lupus with microangiopathic antiphospholipid syndrome and pulmonary hemorrhage.
Abstract BACKGROUND: Concurrent thrombotic and hemorrhagic manifestations are uncommon in patients with Antiphospholipid Syndrome. CASE CHARACTERISTICS: A 10-year-old girl with fever, edema, rash and joint pains, who later developed deep venous thrombosis (DVT), stroke, thrombotic microangiopathic hemolytic anemia and pulmonary hemorrhage. Investigations confirmed Antiphospholipid syndrome associated with systemic lupus erythematosus. OUTCOME: She went into complete remission with intravenous immunoglobulins, plasmapheresis, immunosuppression and anticoagulation. MESSAGE: Thrombotic microangiopathic...

Prospective surveillance of hospitalisations associated with varicella in New Zealand children
ConclusionVaricella has more associated morbidity than commonly perceived in immunocompetent children. Māori and PI children are more likely to have complications. This surveillance gives support for inclusion of universal varicella vaccine in the NZ NIS.

Advancing Neurologic Care in the Intensive Care Nursery
Up to 25% of neonates at tertiary care nurseries are diagnosed as having neurologic conditions, including encephalopathy and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy [HIE], as well as seizures, stroke, and intracranial hemorrhage. These children are at high risk for lifelong disabilities, including cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and cognitive and behavioral disabilities. Establishing a neurointensive care nursery involves a culture change toward brain-focused care, with all bedside clinicians (including physicians, nurses, respiratory technologists, and trainees) maintaining constant awareness of the potential neurologic complications o...
