112 of an original sample of 134 children with febrile convulsions were reviewed between 8 years and 9 years 10 months after their initial attack. 17% of those followed up had had at least one spontaneous fit. A significant correlation was found with perinatal abnormalities. 12% had continuing recurrent fits. Persisting grand mal occurred most commonly in lower social class children who had had...

Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a prevalent childhood cancer, accounting for approximately 25% of all pediatric cancer cases.

Isolated perineal burns are rare and so are perineal contractures. Perineal contractures may however lead to intestinal obstruction, which is a more life-threatening complication. A six-yr-old boy presented with chronic intestinal obstruction following isolated perineal contracture due to a deliberate perineal burn injury to treat a febrile convulsion. The obstruction was successfully relieved ...

BACKGROUND Influenza in children causes significant morbidity and hospitalizations and also some mortality particularly in children < 5 years of age. Influenza vaccination in children has been shown to be safe and effective, but in 2010 the pediatric influenza vaccination program was suspended in Western Australia after the rate of febrile convulsions observed (9/1000 doses) was 55 times the pr...

Febrile seizures are the most prevalent type of seizures among children up to 5 years of age (2-4% of Western-European children). Complex febrile seizures are associated with an increased risk to develop temporal lobe epilepsy. To investigate short- and long-term effects of experimental febrile seizures (eFS), we induced eFS in highly febrile convulsion-susceptible C57BL/6J mice at post-natal d...
