This report covers the first case of Seckel's syndrome diagnosed at Dakar UHC. It concerns the main type of bird head nanism. The interesting thing about this observation is that it is associated with hepatoma. Would this be just a coincidence, or could the two afflictions be connected?
The authors report the first Senegalese observation of hydranencephaly in a three-week-old baby to underline the unusualness of this deformity and the efficiency of transfrontal echography in its diagnosis.
The authors report five, mortal, vasculo-cerebral hemorrhage complications in anaemic and geographic patients. The five observations are stereotyped, the accidents occurring two weeks after the start of treatment, which included a complete blood transfusion and the admission of injectable iron and oral folic acid. Physiopathogenesis is obscure, and no identical case seems to be described in literature. The authors link these accidents to less serious neurological manifestations normally observed during iron-deficient anaemia. They blame cerebral anoxia and the deficient terrain.
