Acute pancreatitis with cholestatic hepatitis: an unusual manifestation of hepatitis A.

Acute hepatitis A infection is an uncommon cause of pancreatitis in children. To date, only four cases have been reported in the paediatric literature. We report a 7-year-old girl with acute pancreatitis associated with hepatitis A infection who made a satisfactory recovery. The report highlights the CT findings including focal necrosis not previously reported. Because of the extreme rarity of the complication, the four previous reports have also been single case reports. This paper reviews all these cases with a view to elucidating the aetiopathogenesis of the pancreatitis.

The trichorhinophalangeal syndrome with repeated dislocation of the patella.

The trichorhinophalangeal syndrome associated with laxity of the skin and joints has been mistaken for Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (Jones 1988). We report a case of the trichorhinophalangeal syndrome which we mistook for the Larsen syndrome. Literature and published photographs of the Larsen syndrome are reviewed to highlight the similarities between these two entities. These observations may be of value in the genetic mapping of the Larsen syndrome, which perhaps is a contiguous gene syndrome.
