Tracheobronchial calcification: an observation in three children after mitral valve replacement and warfarin sodium therapy.

Tracheal calcification in children may be congenital or acquired. The authors describe three children in whom tracheal or tracheobronchial calcification was noted on radiographs after prosthetic mitral valve replacement and after long periods of warfarin sodium therapy. Laryngeal and tracheal calcification has been known to occur in warfarin embryopathy. This suggests that possibility of warfarin sodium as an etiologic factor in the development of the tracheal or tracheobronchial calcification in these children. However, further investigation is necessary.

Mycotic aortic aneurysm in premature infants.

Three cases of aortic aneurysm adjacent to the tip of the umbilical artery catheter are described. The clinical presentation, radiographic findings, and proposed pathogenesis are discussed. Mycotic aneurysms in childhood are infrequent but serious threats to life, requiring early recognition and prompt therapy. The appearance of a progressively enlarging middle or posterior mediastinal mass in a child with a history of septicemia should suggest a mycotic aneurysm.

Pediatric enema tips.

The authors describe modifications of disposable rubber enema tips for use in infants and children. These should be used instead of a Foley balloon catheter to avoid distension and obscuration of the rectum as well as possible perforation of the rectum.

Systemic arterial supply to normal basilar segments of the left lower lobe.

Two cases of sole arterial supply to normal basilar segments of the left lower lobe via an aberrant systemic vessel are described. A spectrum of congenital pulmonary abnormalities with systemic arterial supply to the lung is presented. Complete roentgenologic evaluation is necessary prior to definitive surgery.
