Congenital Nephrotic Syndrome: A Cases Report
Congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS) can be caused by neonatal infections and renal diseases that usually occur in early infancy. The most common CNS is the Finnish type, which is an autosomal recessively inherited disease characterized by intrauterine onset of massive proteinuria. In this study, we presented a preterm neonate confirmed as the first case of CNS in Iran by genetic study, who was ...
متن کاملCongenital achiasma and see-saw nystagmus in VACTERL syndrome.
A 29-year-old man with vertebral defects, anal atresia, cardiac defects, tracheoesophageal fistula, renal defects, and limb defects (VACTERL) presented with headache, photophobia, and worsening nystagmus. He had near-normal visual acuity and visual fields, absent stereopsis, and see-saw nystagmus. Brain MRI revealed a thin remnant of the optic chiasm but normal-sized optic nerves. Functional MR...
متن کاملVariable expressivity of congenital longitudinal radial deficiency and spinal dysraphism in monozygotic twins.
We report monozygotic twins with longitudinal radial hypoplasia and low (L5) spina bifida occulta, but with differing severity. There is only one previous report of similar twins. We report these identical twins with the expression of longitudinal radial hypoplasia with mirror image pattern on contralateral sides, and the association of low spina bifida occulta.
متن کاملThe treatment of longitudinal radial deficiency.
Absence of the radius is the commonest of the longitudinal deficiencies but is itself quite an unusual congenital anomaly. No one surgeon is likely to encounter the condition more than once or twice in a career and there is a strong case for congenital upper limb conditions to be collected into special clinics. The pathology and methods of surgical treatment are reviewed. It is a difficult cond...
متن کاملEsophageal atresia in newborns: a wide spectrum from the isolated forms to a full VACTERL phenotype?
BACKGROUND VATER association was first described in 1972 by Quan and Smith as an acronym which identifies a non-random co-occurrence of Vertebral anomalies, Anal atresia, Tracheoesophageal fistula and/or Esophageal atresia, Radial dysplasia. It is even possible to find out Cardiovascular, Renal and Limb anomalies and the acronym VACTERL was adopted, also, embodying Vascular, as single umbilical...
