ABSTRACT. An 11 5/12-year-old girl with pituitary dwarfism had intractable nocturnal enuresis. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed pituitary stalk transection and the formation of an ectopic posterior lobe. The results of responses to dehydration, infusion of hyperosmolar NaCI solution, and l-desamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin showed that the nocturnal enuresis in the present case was due to a partial vasopressin deficiency. We suggest that the ectopic posterior lobe is one cause of nocturnal enuresis. 相似文献

Several quantitiative methods of urine microscopic examination for bacteriuria and pyuria on a blood cell counting-chamber have been found reliable for the diagnosis of urinary tract infection (UTI). However, no one technique has become popular or widely used because of laborious procedures associated with the method. We investigated the usefulness of microscopic examination of uncentrifuged urine on disposable counting-chambers. A total of 89 urine samples were obtained from 53 children (24 male and 29 female). Urine samples were examined for bacteriuria and pyuria using a disposable counting chamber and its reliability was analyzed in predicting significant bacteriuria defined by routine urine culture. Significant bacteriuria was diagnosed in 23 of 89 urine samples by urine culture. Microscopic urine examination on disposable counting-chambers was very easy without the need to set up or wash chambers and provided immediate information. Urine bacterial concentration determined by the counting-chamber method was closely correlated to that determined by bacterial culture. The counting-chamber method identified bacteriuria correctly in 21 of 23 urine samples diagnosed as significant bacteriuria (sensitivity = 91%) and also gave a correct diagnosis of 64 of 66 urine samples with non-significant bacteriuria (specificity = 98%). Nineteen of the 23 urine samples with significant bacteriuria also had pyuria. The positive predictive value of concomitant bacteriuria and pyuria was 100%. When neither bacteriuria nor pyuria was found, the negative predictive value was 100%. It was concluded that urine microscopy using disposable counting chambers was very easy, inexpensive, quick and reliable and thus an extremely useful method for diagnosing UTI. 相似文献

An 8 year old girl with adult type Philadelphia (Ph1)-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia received natural α-interferon therapy in the chronic phase. Complete suppression of the Ph1 clone of bone marrow cells was achieved after 1 month of therapy, which was determined by disappearance of rearranged breakpoint cluster region (BCR) gene in Southern blot analysis. Complete hematological remission was also attained following 2 months of therapy. Both the suppression and the hematological remission have been sustained for 24 months with α-interferon. in spite of the detection of the chimeric BCR/ABL mRNA in her bone marrow by polymerase chain reaction assay 12 months after therapy. 相似文献

More than 20 patients with complete growth hormone (GH) deficiency have been examined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); transection of the pituitary stalk was found in 12 patients. Radiological (1) and endocrinological (2) studies in these patients will be published elsewhere. Another two patients with complete pituitary stalk transection have recently been identified, and together with one patient with secondary GH deficiency due to head trauma are presented in this report. 相似文献

A report is presented of a male infant with prune belly syndrome (PBS) in whom bladder enlargement was detected by ultrasound (US) as early as 13 weeks of gestation. Subsequent fetal US identified progressive urinary tract dilatation, ascites and oligohydramnios. At 22 weeks, the fetal bladder was drained under US guidance. A gradual resolution of oligohydramnios was detected on US performed after 26 weeks of gestation. Delivery by cesarean section was performed at 34 weeks of gestation. The newborn had typical features of PBS with a vesico-cutaneous fistula but did not show respiratory distress. Imaging studies showed hypoplastic left kidney, slightly dysplastic but functioning right kidney, megaureter, megacystis, vesicoureteral reflux and dilated prostatic urethra. The early detection of genitourinary system abnormalities and serial US suggest that a distal urethral obstruction may be the underlying mechanism of PBS. Spontaneous (or therapeutic) intra-uterine decompression of the bladder might ameliorate obstructive nephropathy and oligohydramnios, allowing adequate lung development. 相似文献

Several less harmful methods than voiding cysto-urethrography for detecting significant ureteric reflux have been proposed. The present prospective study investigated whether ultrasonography was effective in identifying ureteric reflux in infants with their first febrile urinary infection. The subjects were 27 infants (24 boys and 3 girls) aged from 0 to 8 months. The urinary tract was scanned when the bladder was full, and before and during induced voiding. Infants with abnormal ultrasound findings underwent voiding cysto-urethrography. The other infants were followed and those who had a recurrence of urinary infection underwent voiding cystography. Ten children underwent cysto-urethrography, with eight refluxing ureters identified in six boys. Ultrasound revealed transient dilatation of the renal pelvis on voiding in five kidneys, transient dilatation of distal ureters in 12 and hydro-ureteronephrosis in two. Each of the five kidneys with pelvic dilatation on voiding was associated with ureteric reflux grades III or IV. Of the 17 children who did not undergo cysto-urethrography, only one had recurrence of urinary infection and was diagnosed with ureteric reflux. This girl was one of the three babies who were not scanned during voiding. More than half of the infants with febrile urinary infection were excluded from invasive examination without having recurrence of urinary infection. Thus, ultrasound scanning during voiding was effective for screening infants with their first urinary infection to detect significant ureteric reflux. 相似文献

The rapid dipstick test of urine leukocyte esterase (LE) activity and nitrite has not been studied fully in pediatric clinical situations. We investigated the usefulness of the dipstick LE and nitrite test in the screening of urinary tract infection (UTI) in pediatric patients. Ninety-two fresh urine samples were obtained from children suspected of having UTI. Leukocyte esterase activity and nitrite were measured in the urine specimens read by a photometer. Leukocytes were also counted on a disposable slide. Urine samples were examined for bacteriuria by the standard culture method. The results of the urine dipstick test of LE showed a close relationship with leukocyte counts on a counting chamber. Leukocyte esterase (-) indicated leukocyte counts of less than 10/uL with a probability of 97% (58/60). Of the 22 urine samples with significant bacteriuria diagnosed by standard urine culture, the nitrite test did not detect bacteriuria in 10. While the sensitivities of the dipstick tests of nitrite (+) and LE ± or more for the diagnosis of significant bacteriuria were 55% (12/22) and 86% (19/22), respectively, the sensitivity and negative predictive value of the combined test were 100%. These results suggest that use of the dipstick test of LE and nitrite can avoid a large part of the cost incurred by urine culture and is useful for screening UTI in children. 相似文献

Reflux nephropathy is known to be a major cause of renal failure in children. Vesico-ureteral reflux is usually diagnosed by voiding cysto-urethrography (VCG). However, it has been observed that conventional VCG is not always reliable for the diagnosis of ureteral reflux. In the case of a 5 year old girl with recurrent febrile urinary tract infection, VCG showed no ureteral reflux. Urodynamic study revealed a large bladder capacity and significant residual urine. Renal scintigram delineated a right renal scar. Simple ultrasound examination with videotape recording during voiding definitely demonstrated the presence of significant ureteral reflux when she voided, that is, there was marked dilatation of the right distal ureter and ballooning of the right renal pelvis on voiding, and quick refilling of the bladder concomitantly with the disappearance of the pelvic ballooning. Therefore, an ultrasound during voiding may be useful for diagnosing ureteral reflux in patients where a VCG does not reveal reflux. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Fibrin-related markers such as soluble fibrin (SF) and D-dimer are considered useful for the diagnosis of thrombosis. However, the evidence for diagnosis of thrombosis by fibrin-related markers is not well-established. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the cutoff values of D-dimer and SF in the diagnosis of thrombosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Plasma concentrations of SF and D-dimer were measured in 784 inpatients suspected of having thrombosis between 1 August 2003 and 31 December 2004, and then correlated with thrombosis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Plasma concentrations of D-dimer and SF were significantly higher in patients with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and cerebral thrombosis, compared with those in patients without thrombosis. When cutoff values of > 3.0 microg mL(-1) for D-dimer and > 6.0 microg mL(-1) for SF were used for the diagnosis, more than 50% of patients (with the exception of liver transplant patients and postoperative patients) had thrombosis. Receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that SF was more useful than D-dimer for the diagnosis of thrombosis (i.e. DVT and DIC). The cutoff value of D-dimer (7.87 microg mL(-1)) was the same for DVT and DIC, while that of SF was slightly lower for DVT (7.05 microg mL(-1)) than for DIC (8.60 microg mL(-1)). Our findings suggest that high levels of plasma fibrin-related markers reflect high risk for thrombosis. 相似文献
