It is a benign self-limiting condition that may resolve spontaneously during the first years of life or within adolescence, although there is increasing evidence of cases that may persist also in adulthood. A small dose of corticosteroids is safe and effective for the management of fever episodes and can also be useful for the diagnosis. Tonsillectomy is a good option for those patients who keep presenting with disabling symptoms after the typical age.","PeriodicalId":39695,"journal":{"name":"Medico e Bambino","volume":"2 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138947514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on clinical, laboratory and imaging data the differential diagnosis of paediatric bone pain can sometimes be challenging and includes nonneoplastic diseases, benign bone tumours and malignant bone tumours. Moreover, this article indicates the medical history data to be investigated, the signs and symptoms to be evaluated and the laboratory and imaging investigations to be performed in a paediatric patient with bone pain.

The introduction of the newborn screening programme completely changed the natural history of many diseases, as it allowed their precocious diagnosis and a prompt pharmacological or dietary treatment. For example, as to phenylketonuria, before the newborn screening, mental retardation and epilepsy were key elements to suspect this condition; nowadays, a child affected by phenylketonuria is indistinguishable from their healthy peers. After its birth in the early 1990s, newborn screening has undergone a constant series of changes: the number of conditions searched for has increased, the tools to analyze the blood samples have improved and even the facilities and transportation system have developed. At the same time, various critical issues have emerged, namely how to deal with false positive samples, management costs, differences between regional programmes and even ethics (what other conditions should be included or not). This article aims to explain how this complex diagnostic system works, trying to picture the current situation of extended newborn screening in Italy and in the world, paying particular attention to its prospects.","PeriodicalId":39695,"journal":{"name":"Medico e Bambino","volume":"11 14","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136227606","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Along with well-known and recognized syndromic immunodeficiencies, immunological abnormalities have been recently described in genetic syndromes that were not previously considered as inborn errors of immunity. The paper describes the cases of two patients affected by two rare genetic syndromes, namely Jacobsen syndrome and Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome. In the first case, the immunological phenotype of Jacobsen syndrome has been expanded. In the second, the growing body of evidence has pointed out that patients with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome may present with immunological abnormalities.","PeriodicalId":39695,"journal":{"name":"Medico e Bambino","volume":"2 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136229519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
