چکیده

A 2760 g female infant was born at term to a gravida 6 para 5 mother after a normal pregnancy with no history of exposure to alcohol , teratogens , or ionizing radiation. Abnormal findings on physical examination were slight hypertonicity , respiratory distress in room air, and microcephaly (head circumference < -3 SD). The hard palate was intact. The anterior and posterior fontanelles were small , and hypotelorism was present. A single midfacial nostril was clinically patent but to assure adequate ventilation an oral airway was inserted

Prenatal diagnosis of de novo isochromosome 13q associated with microcephaly, alobar holoprosencephaly and cebocephaly in a fetus.

We report on the prenatal diagnosis, genetic studies, and pathology of a case with de novo isochromosome 13q. A 31-year-old primigravida was referred for genetic counselling at 26 weeks' gestation due to the sonographic findings of intrauterine growth retardation and microcephaly. Level II ultrasonograms further demonstrated alobar holoprosencephaly, hypotelorism, polydactyly, a ventricular sep...

Alobar holoprosencephaly associated with cebocephaly and craniosynostosis.

Cebocephaly is a very rare congenital midline facial anomaly characterized by a blind-ended single nostril and ocular hypotelorism, and is usually combined with alobar holoprosencephaly. We report here a case of alobar holoprosencephaly with cebocephaly and craniosynostosis. Chromosomal analysis revealed normal karyotyping. The facial dysmorphism was characterized by the single nostril, hypotel...

Further studies on the genetic heterogeneity of cebocephaly.

The detailed morphological description of 4 cases with cebocephaly, 3 of which were karotyped (one with D trisomy and 2 with normal karyotypes), are presented. Analysis of all cytogenetically studied cases with this malformation reveals that cebocephaly with a normal karyotype may result from more than one mutant gene, and so it may be accompanied by different extracranial abnormalities. On the...

Sonography in the Evaluation of Acute Appendicitis

Objective. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the negative predictive value (NPV) of sonography in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis. Methods. Right lower quadrant sonograms of 193 patients (158 female and 35 male; age range, 3–20 years) with suspected acute appendicitis over a 1-year period were retrospectively reviewed. Sonographic findings were graded on a 5-point scale, ranging fro...

Sonographic examination of the eyeball using whole body use equipment in children: potential and clinical significance.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of eyeball examination using whole body USG equipment for patients up to 18 years of age. The sonographic findings were compared with ophthalmoscopic results and clinical progress; follow-up sonographic examinations were carried out in many cases. Serious clinical states were operated and it was then possible to compare sonographic findings wi...
