OBJECTIVE
To document an unusual cause of genital bleeding in a 6-year-old girl.
METHODS
Case report.
METHODS
Outpatient pediatric gynecology clinic in a tertiary care hospital.
RESULTS
Clinical presentation of a case of genital bleeding secondary to hypercalciuria in a 6-year-old female.
OBJECTIVE
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a genetic angiodysplasia affecting multiple organs. Clinical manifestations include spontaneous and recurrent epistaxis, mucocutaneous telangiectases that bleed easily and arteriovenous malformations in many organs. Despite the anecdotal
Hypercalciuria (HCU) is frequently found during the evaluation of children with hematuria; the long-term implications of untreated HCU in children are uncertain. Since 1981, we have identified HCU (urinary calcium, greater than 0.1 mmol.kg-1.d-1) in 58 patients (41 male) with hematuria; 64% had
Na, Ca, K and P renal transport was studied in 111 convalescents after hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome. K transport was not affected. Defective distal Na reabsorption was found in 6.25% of the examinees and persisted for one year after the disease. 1-10 years after the disease 58.1% of the
OBJECTIVE
We evaluated the outcomes and complications of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) operations performed in pediatric patients using adult-sized surgical equipment at our center.
METHODS
The medical and surgical records of 23 children who underwent a total of 25 PNL operations using 24 or 26
Calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis is a common syndrome that recurs and may be complicated by infection, obstruction, bleeding, and rarely, impairment in renal function. The formation of Ca oxalate stones depends on the state of urinary supersaturation with respect to Ca and oxalate and the action of
Patients with co-occurrence of two independent pathologies pose a challenge for clinicians as the phenotype often presents as an unclear syndrome. In these cases, exome sequencing serves as a powerful instrument to determine the underlying genetic causes. Here, we present the case of a 4-year old
Although isolated gross hematuria is a disturbing symptom, there have been few studies of this finding in pediatric patients. Therefore, this study was performed to examine the associated symptoms and causes of gross hematuria in children and adolescents who presented with this problem as their
Hematuria is a common finding on a urinalysis, with a prevalence rate between 1% and 2%. The execution of screening of hematuria in children is controversial. Once hematuria has been identified, it is useful to identify sources of bleeding, as either glomerular or non-glomerular. If microscopic
OBJECTIVE
Although asymptomatic gross haematuria (GHU) is relatively common in children, its causes and clinical outcomes are not clearly defined.
METHODS
Children with asymptomatic GHU were examined and work-up was performed. Patients with recurrent GHU with proteinuria, or significant proteinuria,
Therapeutic indications of potassium citrate include: 1. Oxaluric renal stone disease and some cases of uric acid stone disease. Prevention of stone formation in patients with renal polycystic disease. Prevention of stone relapse after ESWL or lithotomy; 2. Distal renal tubular acidosis complicated
Furosemide and acetazolamide are often used concurrently to treat posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus in premature infants with intraventricular hemorrhage. Eleven premature infants with posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus were monitored for the development of hypercalciuria during treatment using urine
