摘要

拉塞尔间脑综合征（Russell's diencephalic syndrome）是以体重极度下降为特征的一系列症状和体征，身高或头围无损害，摄入量或食欲无变化。这是由于下丘脑功能障碍与该区域的占位性病变有关。这是儿科营养不良的罕见病因，因此常常被延误诊断。我们在此描述了一例 17 个月大的男性患者，他因体重下降 3 个月，被怀疑患有肠吸收不良综合征而住进儿科住院病房。在排除了最常见的营养不良原因后，患者被诊断为脑干的类柔肌星形细胞瘤。

Diencephalic syndrome in a child with chronic malnutrition.

Russell's diencephalic syndrome is a set of signs and symptoms characterized by extreme weight loss, with no impairment of height or head circumference, without changes in intake or appetite. It is due to hypothalamic dysfunction associated with space-occupying lesions in this region. It is a rare cause of malnutrition in pediatrics, so its diagnosis is often delayed. Here we describe the case of a 17-month-old male patient with weight loss for 3 months who was admitted to the pediatric inpatient ward due to suspected intestinal malabsorption syndrome. After ruling out the most common causes of malnutrition, the patient was diagnosed with pilomyxoid astrocytoma of the brainstem.
