Hypotonia and ex vacuo hemorrhages are the most grave complications of vitreoretinal surgery; the known methods of their prevention are altogether inadequate. The authors have developed extra-scleral ballooning (ESB) methods that improve the efficacy of surgery and reduce the rate and severity of
We report our clinical opinion for recombinant activated factor VII (NovoSeven, Novo Nordisk, Copenhagen, Denmark) administration in puerperae with massive haemorrhage caused by uterine hypotonia. Four women with severe bleeding in post-placental period received NovoSeven in bolus IV. The blood loss
While a patient was being evaluated for melena, a glucagon-induced hypotonic examination of the small intestine demonstrated a small ulcerated mass in the jejunum. The tubeless hypotonic examination was performed after multiple gastrointestinal series, small intestinal series, barium enemas, and
The investigation of the volume of the circulating blood in 129 patients operated for gastro-intestinal hemorrhage has shown that by the end of the operation there was an increasing deficiency of the circulating blood volume and HO in spite of hemotransfusion therapy. The use of prolonged ganglionic
Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia results from platelet-antigen incompatibility between mother and fetus, leading to antibody-mediated destruction of fetal platelets. With a prevalence of 1 in 1000 births, approximately 4000 infants born in the United States each year develop neonatal alloimmune
The traumatic intracranial haemorrhage still remains a serious complication of instrumental deliveries with an uncertain prognosis. Regarding tentorial haemorrhage, surprisingly few clinical neurological data are available. Most of the references in literature are older case reports, associated
BACKGROUND
Bromadiolone, often called a super-warfarin, is a potent rodenticide with long half-life. Skin and mucosal bleeding is the most common clinical manifestations of its intoxication. Bromadiolone intoxications in adults and children have been reported, but this phenomenon is rarely seen in
A term male newborn was noted to have severe diffuse hypotonia, hyporeflexia, hepatosplenomegaly, and characteristic abnormal facies of Zellweger syndrome, the diagnosis of which was confirmed by identification of 2 mutations including Nt2098insT, a frameshift with premature stop codon in exon 13,
Massive fetomaternal haemorrhage (FMH) occurs in 0.12 to 0.5% of pregnancies. It is most often spontaneous and involves uncomplicated near-term pregnancies. It causes fetal anaemia, with or without fetal distress and hydrops fetalis. To our knowledge only one paper has reported a neurological
BACKGROUND
Adrenal hemorrhage (AH) is a relatively uncommon condition in neonates. This study aimed to review the clinical, laboratory and ultrasonographic findings of AH in newborns.
METHODS
The medical records of 13 newborns with AH who had been admitted to our neonatal intensive care unit were
Neonatal adrenal hemorrhage (NAH) in newborn infants is a rare event that is associated with specific anatomical and vascular characteristics. It is more common in term infants and occurs more often in neonates who feature perinatal asphyxia. Symptoms that more frequently prompt to diagnosis are
OBJECTIVE
Haemophilia is a well-known X-linked recessive bleeding disorder related to a deficiency of factor VIII. The aim of the paper is to point out the role of an early diagnosis in cases of intracranial bleeding, especially in neonates and to highlight the bad prognosis.
METHODS
Three patients
