Intervertebral disc herniations (limbus vertebrae) in pediatric patients: report of 15 cases.

A revision of 15 cases of back pain and radiological features characteristic of anterior or posterior limbus vertebrae is presented. We comment on the radiological findings observed in the various imaging studies performed (conventional radiology, CT and MRI), which were attributed to the herniation of disc material into the vertebral body. In three patients who were followed up 12 years after the diagnosis, the initial roentgenograms of limbus vertebrae progressed in adult hood into radiological images characteristic of Schmorl's hernia as a sequela.

Nonsurgical management of neonatal multiple brain abscesses due to Proteus mirabilis.

A newborn infant with Proteus mirabilis meningitis developed multiple brain abscesses with diameters ranging from 2 to 4 cm. Intravenous antibiotic therapy alone without surgical intervention led to the complete resolution of this complication. The case supports that this may be an acceptable treatment of multiple brain abscesses in neonates. However, the clinical outcome was relatively poor, since a porencephalic cyst, hypodense areas in CT scan, and psychomotor retardation were found at one year of age.

[Pediatric AIDS through vertical transmission].

We report here the first paediatric immunodeficiency acquired syndrome (AIDS) in Spain, acquired by vertical-transmission and a second infant case with the same transmission and classified as AIDS related complex. We also mention the incidence and characteristics, of the neonatal population born in the last eighteen months to HIV positive mothers in our geographic area. The AIDS patients, was a female drug addicted parents born to who died at 22 month. Her parents are HIV positive and have ARC. The second patient was a boy, born to a sexual HIV positive partner of a member of a high risk group who died pat 17 month. Review of the literature until September 1986, revealed 369 AIDS paediatric patients, the number is lower 265 (7 Spanish), if only vertical transmitted AIDS is considered. For this reason, we considered pertinent to provide some information about clinical manifestations and laboratory, radiologic and necropsy findings in our patients.

[Importance of ultrasound in the study of cerebral pathology in childhood].

Results of 491 studies of the brain with gray-scale sonography in 341 patients with ages ranging from one day to one year are reported. Sonographic appearance of normal brain, cerebral abscesses and hemorrhages in neonates, together with sonographic findings of some congenital brain anomalies are described.

[Infantile cortical hyperostosis and fatal varicella (author's transl)].

We report a male, prematurely born, affected by an Infantile Cortical Hyperostosis. He had very frequent infections in skin, ear, meninges, gastrointestinal and respiratory system. He died at 13 months during a varicella, and an immunological defect was suspected, but could not be proved. Our patient showed some remarkable peculiarities. He was premature, uncommon fact, and associated constant infections, undernutrition and fatal varicella. This case support the relationship between Infantile Cortical Hyperostosis and infection.
