Growth Hormone (GH) Therapy During the Transition Period
To investigate growth hormone (GH) secretion at the transition age, retesting of all subjects who have undergone GH replacement therapy is recommended when linear growth and pubertal development are complete to distinguish between transitional and persistent GH deficiency (GHD). Early retesting of children with idiopathic and isolated GHD (i.e., before the achievement of final height and/or the adult pubertal stage) can avoid possible over-treatm…
Corticosteroids in Moderate-To-Severe Graves’ Ophthalmopathy
Prednisone seems a better choice than intravenous corticosteroids, for treating moderate-to-severe and active Graves' ophthalmopathy, keeping in mind the importance of quality of life in pediatric patients
Rhabdomyolysis in a Young Girl with Van Wyk-Grumbach Syndrome due to Severe Hashimoto Thyroiditis
Background: Autoimmune hypothyroidism (Hashimoto thyroiditis; HT) is the most common postnatal thyroid disease. Clinical manifestations of HT vary according to disease severity. Due to the pleiotropic effects of thyroid hormone, less common signs and symptoms of HT can occur, leading to a delay in diagnosis. Case presentation: A 9-year-old girl of Indian origin was admitted for a one-week history of widespread myalgia, fatigue, muscle weakness, d…
Complex Investigation of a Pediatric Haematological Case
Diagnosis of VL represents a demanding challenge in endemic and non-endemic areas. Our case demonstrates that leishmaniasis should always be considered in the differential diagnosis in patients presenting with hepatosplenomegaly and cytopaenia with a persistent fever, even in cases of infectious mononucleosis. Moreover, the execution of bone marrow aspiration should not be delayed in order to diagnose and treat at an early stage the potential occ…
Pericardial Effusion as a Presenting Symptom of Hashimoto Thyroiditis
Background: Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT) is the most frequent cause of acquired hypothyroidism in paediatrics. HT is usually diagnosed in older children and adolescents, mainly in females and is rare in infants and toddlers with cardiac involvement, including pericardial effusion, that can be found in 10% to 30% of adult HT cases. In this paper, a child with HT and pericardial effusion as the most important sign of HT is described. Case presentatio…
