Pure interstitial dup(6)(q22.31q22.31) – a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
'Pure' interstitial duplication of chr6q is rare. The varying size of duplication encompassing 6q22.31 is associated with the expressivity of dysmorphism and autism. Here, we report a unique case with facial dysmorphism, developmental delay, complex neurological impairment and spasticity unrelated to autism. Genetic analysis by aCGH exhibited a 627-971 kb dup(6)(q22.31q22.31) encompassing TRDN and NKAIN2 genes. The presence of the duplication was confirmed by quantitative PCR in the proband and phenotypically normal parents. With the current techniques, we cannot exclude presence of a deleterious homozygous point mutation in the proband where each copy would have been inherited from both parents.

Drug-induced acute interstitial nephritis (DI-AIN) is a common cause of AKI and leading to CKD and ESRD Although any drug can potentially cause DI-AIN, antibiotics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and proton pump inhibitors are the most common culprits. In the present study, we report a 9-year-old child with drug-induced interstitial nephritis (cefotaxime, vancomycin, and acyclovir). it s...

Background: In many cases of ILD (interstitial lung disease), overlap diagnosis is considered. Here, a few cases with diagnosis of a variety of ILDs, where eventual open lung biopsy has been performed are selected. Reference will be made to reliable sources to show that NSIP can still be a variant of UIP (Usual interstitial pneumonia) with better treatment response and prognosis. Case Presenta...
