Minor craniofacial anomalies in children. Comparative study of a qualitative and quantitative evaluation.

Measurement of various craniofacial structures was compared with clinical assessment of craniofacial anomalies. Different diagnostic groups of children were studied. Anomalies were seen more often in patients with congenital heart defect, mental retardation and multiple congenital anomalies syndromes than in control children. Comparative study of quantitative data and qualitative (clinical) assessment showed some agreement but also many discrepancies. Therefore, in describing craniofacial anomalies both methods should be used. This is particularly true in the differential diagnosis of multiple congenital anomalies syndromes and variant familial developmental patterns.

[ADAM complex--maxillofacial abnormalities and abnormalities of the extremities caused by amniotic strangulations].

The anomalies of the ADAM complex arise through amniotic strangulations, adhesions and amputations. In the face cleft formations, displacements and deformities of various structures occur. The limbs exhibit constriction grooves, secondary syndactyle or amptuations. According to observations on 8 patients and information from the literature, the presentation of Adam complexes can vary to an extraordinary degree. The anomalies result from exogenous influences. In genetic counselling phenotypically similar congenital malformations must be separated.

Cranial computerized tomography in children with lymphoid malignancy and seizures.

Focal and generalized seizures occurred in 4 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and non-Hodgkin-lymphoma. The etiology of the neurological complications could be established by cranial computerized tomography (CT): i.e., 1. localized metastasis with calcification and 2. acute intracerebral hemorrhage during induction therapy in two patients with malignant lymphomas; 3. diffuse cerebral infiltration with blast cells and 4. cerebral atrophy in two children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who were in relapse. Accurate diagnosis of cerebral complications in hemoblastoses is essential for appropriate therapy and CT may lead to more effective treatment in patients with lymphoid malignancy and seizures.

[Spongious cerebral dystrophy at an infant age (Canavan-Bogaert-Bertrand types) in three siblings of a non-Jewish family in upper Franconia (author's transl)].

A daughter and two sons of possibly consangineous parents died after motor and mental deterioration at 18, 16 and 15 months of age. Spongy degeneration of the CNS (Canavan-van-Bogaert-Bertrand type) was diagnosed on neuropathological examinationtion; the histological findings were almost identical in the patients. Own clinical experiences are compared with reports from the literature; data important in clinical and differential diagnosis are reviewed. Pathogenetical and etiological aspects are discussed; autosomal recessive inheritance has to be considered in genetic counselling.
