Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in a 6-week-old male infant.
Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (FLH) is an autosomal recessively inherited multisystem disease. This defect in cellular cytotoxicity is a life threatening condition characterized by fever, rash, splenomegaly, cytopenias and neurologic manifestations. PRF1, UNC13D and STX11 gene defects underlie in about 40-50% of primary cases. Chemoimmunotherapy followed by hematopoietic stem cell...
متن کاملAcute onset of facial nerve palsy associated with Lyme disease in a 6 year-old child.
Pediatric facial nerve palsy (FNP) can result from a variety of etiologies including Lyme disease, varicella, primary gingivostomatitis, herpes zoster oticus (Ramsay Hunt syndrome), coxsackievirus, trauma, otitis media, HIV, diseases causing tumors or demyelinations, compressions, and possibly Epstein Barr virus. Lyme disease has been implicated as the cause of over 50% of the FNPs in children....
متن کاملFacial Nerve Palsy
The VIIth cranial (facial) nerve is largely motor in function (some sensory fibres from external acoustic meatus, fibres controlling salivation and taste fibres from the anterior tongue in the chorda tympani branch). It also supplies the stapedius (so a complete nerve lesion will alter auditory acuity on the affected side). From the facial nerve nucleus in the brainstem, fibres loop around the ...
