In 1960, Van Wyk and Grumbach reported three girls with hypothyroidism and a combination of incomplete isosexual precocious puberty (early breast development, menstruation, and absence of pubic hair), galactorrhea, delayed bone age, and pituitary enlargement. All abnormalities regressed after appropriate thyroid hormone replacement therapy. Over the years, an increasing number of reported cases has allowed for a more precise understanding of the clinical, biochemical, and radiological phenotypes of the Van Wyk-Grumbach syndrome (VWGS). These varying clinical manifestations are thought to result from a unique pathophysiological process where the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is a key element. We describe the cases of two patients (a boy and a girl) with severe autoimmune thyroiditis and VWGS. The clinical, biochemical, and radiological imaging characteristics were similar in both patients and included growth failure, absence of clinical goiter, markedly elevated TSH concentrations >100 mIU/L, undetectable free thyroxine levels, \"normal\" thyroglobulin levels, high follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and prolactin levels, prepubertal levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), delayed bone age, and hyperplasia of the pituitary gland. The two patients displayed differences, especially in the absence of clinical pubertal development, moderate anemia, abnormal renal function, and moderate goiter detected via ultrasonography (in the female patient). Thyroxine replacement therapy reversed the VWGS phenotype and hypothyroidism, with satisfactory growth velocity, strictly normal thyroid function, and normal pituitary size detected via magnetic resonance imaging at the 6-month follow-up visit.","PeriodicalId":9623,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Pediatrics","volume":"2024 ","pages":"8919177"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11251785/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141626113","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, a serious infection with the anaerobe Fusobacterium necrophorum can occur in previously healthy children with a peak incidence in preschool children and in adolescents. As the clinical presentation can be very similar to meningitis caused by aerobic bacteria, one should consider Fusobacterium necrophorum as the causative agent when preceded by or associated with otitis media with purulent otorrhea or mastoiditis, in combination with minimal or no improvement on empiric antibiotic treatment. As this pathogen can be difficult to culture, anaerobic cultures should be obtained. Prompt treatment with a third-generation cephalosporin and metronidazole should be initiated once suspected or confirmed. Surgical source control is often necessary, but even with adequate and prompt treatment, the morbidity and mortality in children with a Fusobacterium necrophorum meningitis remains high. In this report, we describe a case of Fusobacterium necrophorum meningitis in a previously healthy child and review the available literature.","PeriodicalId":9623,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Pediatrics","volume":"2024 ","pages":"6365796"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11208823/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141466410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We report two cases in which a home HFNC was effective in managing extremely low-birth-weight infants with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Case 1 was a male infant born at 22 weeks' gestation weighing 435 g. Case 2 was a female infant born at 23 weeks' gestation weighing 450 g. Both patients had mothers with chronic placental abruption or chorioamnionitis. They transitioned from invasive mechanical ventilation to nasal CPAP (nCPAP) at 45 days (case 1) and 50 days (case 2) old. Subsequently, at 324 days (case 1) and 90 days (case 2) old, they transitioned to a HFNC, demonstrating stable oxygenation and ventilation, but faced difficulty in removal. Considering the drawbacks of prolonged hospitalization, the patients were discharged using a home HFNC at 404 days (case 1) and 391 days (case 2) old. For case 1, the HFNC was set at 4 L/min of room air and 2 L/min of oxygen, whereas for case 2, it was set at 5 L/min of room air and 1 L/min of oxygen. These settings maintained an SpO2 above 90% and a pCO2 below 60 mmHg. An HFNC offers advantages over nCPAP owing to its lower invasiveness and reduced discomfort for long-term use. However, reports on the use of a home HFNC for BPD are scarce. In recent years, while premature infant mortality has decreased worldwide, the incidence of BPD has risen, necessitating preparedness for prolonged ventilation in preterm infants. Home ventilators represent a strategy to prevent extended hospitalization, and based on our cases, home HFNC for BPD appears safe and effective, making it potentially useful for managing preterm infants requiring prolonged respiratory support in the future.","PeriodicalId":9623,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Pediatrics","volume":"2024 ","pages":"3266928"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11090667/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140916039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
