IL VALORE DELLA PROIEZIONE LATERO-LATERALE IN POSIZIONE GENU-PETTORALE NEL CLISMA A D.C. IN ETà PEDIATRICA
[Gastroesophageal reflux and peptic esophagitis in childhood. What is the role of traditional radiology?].
The authors studied 52 patients aged from 1 month to 8 years with symptoms consistent with gastro-esophageal reflux and esophagitis. The employed methods were radiological examination, esophageal manometry, acid reflux test, endoscopy. The gastro-esophageal reflux was diagnosed in 38 children. The authors compare the results of radiological examination to those of the other methods. The analysis of the results led the authors to believe that the association of every methods is necessary to define the diagnostic picture. However, the authors emphasize that the conventional X-rays examination is the first stage that cannot be substituted in the management of children with non acute gastro-esophageal disease
Hirschsprung's disease and asymptomatic malrotation: a rare association
Intestinal malrotation and Hirschsprung's disease may be associated with other congenital anomalies. However, the association of Hirschsprung's disease with intestinal malrotation has been recently pointed out and sporadic cases are reported in the literature. We describe a case of such an association in a baby with asymptomatic malrotation and emphasize the diagnostic implications
[Incidence of osteomyelitis and septic arthritis in a neonatal pathology unit]
During a five years period 8 newborns on 2035 admissions developed septic arthritis representing a very low incidence of 4%. Umbilical catheters were used in 3 patients. Staphylococcus aureus was the most frequent etiologic agent and in 6/8 cases blood cultures were positive for the same pathogen agent. Because of the paucity of clinical signs in the first period in the sick neonate, detection of the disorder by the radiologist assumes great importance in the neonatal intensive care unit, as early recognition and therapy may prevent residual deformity
