Congenital hypopituitarism and multiple midline defects in a newborn with non-familial Cat Eye syndrome
2022
Abstract Background Cat eye syndrome (CES) is a rare chromosomal disease, with estimated incidence of about 1 in 100,000 live newborns. The classic triad of iris coloboma, anorectal malformations, and auricular abnormalities is present in 40% of patients, and other congenital defects may also be observed. The typical associated cytogenetic anomaly relies on an extra chromosome, derived from an inverted duplication of short arm and proximal long arm of chromosome 22, resulting in partial trisomy or tetrasomy of such regions (inv dup 22pter-22q11.2). Case presentation We report on a full-term newborn, referred to us soon after birth. Physical examination showed facial dysmorphisms, including …

Quality of life improving after propranolol treatment in patients with Infantile Hemangiomas
2022
AbstractInfantile hemangiomas may affect the quality of life (QoL) of patients and their family members, as anxiety and worry may commonly occur in parents, also linked to the social adversion they experience. We underline the beneficial impact of oral propranolol therapy on QoL of patients with infantile hemangiomas (IH) and of their relatives. A specific questionnaire measuring QoL was administered to parents of IH patients at beginning and end of a treatment with oral propranolol. Different aspects were investigated: site of the lesion, age of patients at starting therapy, length of treatment, occurrence of adverse effects and persistence/recurrence of the vascular anomaly. In all cases …

2014
L’atresia intestinale tipo III B (apple peel) e la gastroschisi sono entrambe malformazioni congenite che necessitano di correzione chirurgica precoce in epoca neonatale. La loro associazione è un evento molto raro. Presentiamo il caso di un neonato a termine con l’associazione di atresia ileale apple-peel parziale e piccolo difetto della parete addominale anteriore, complicate con perforazione intestinale in utero e conseguente peritonite meconiale. Abbiamo riscontrato un’atresia parziale delle anse intestinali, coninteressamento dell’ileo terminale e risparmio del digiuno e di buona parte dell’ileo prossimale, difetto della parete addominale di piccole dimensioni e con poche anse erniate,…
Focus on pediatric and adolescent varicocele: a single institution experience
2012
The aim of this study was to report our long-term diagnostic and surgical outcome during the last 18 years, in paediatric and adolescent management of varicocoele. The present retrospective study enrols 374 patients observed at our institution between 1994 and 2011. Patients were divided into three groups: Group A includes 142 youngsters and adolescents treated with open surgery for left varicocoele, in which a pre-operative CDUS was not performed; Group B includes 65 patients treated with open surgery in which a pre-operative CDUS evaluation was carried out, to assess varicocoele haemodynamic pattern and testicular volume. Group C includes 167 patients treated by laparoscopy and with pre-o…
