[A case of multiple deformities: upper harelip, tubercles of the auricle, anus in vulva].

The case presented of a newborn with multiple deformities: preauricular tubercles, left auricular roof deformity, labicachisis of the right upper lip, dermoid-type swelling on the left eye, deep labial fold at the left commissure and "forked" anus in vulva. Though the combination does not exactly match any syndrome, it has various points in common with Goldenhar's syndrome, of which it might be a phenotype variant. The single cause of the malformations might be an early (microvascular) disturbance of the primary segments in growth areas surrounding the cephalic and caudal segments, first of the medullary plate and subsequently of the primary medullary canal.

[Emergencies in childhood. Experience at a Pediatric First Aid Unit in a regional hospital].

During 1989 4445 children, divided into four different age groups, were treated in the First Aid Unit of Carate Brianza Hospital. The paper analyses the types of pathology and reasons for using the First Aid Unit. The statistical incidence of accidents involving children, above all cranial and other injuries and the accidental swallowing of toxic substances or drugs, was assessed in an attempt to prevent the causes. The type of accident was also correlated to age group. The paper confirms the affirmation made by other researchers that the inappropriate use of emergency services is linked to the lack of relationship between the family and local pediatrician rather than the lack of primary care.

[Transient hyperphosphatasemia in infants].

Striking transient increases in serum alkaline phosphatase in 2 infants are reported. Isoenzymes were studied in 2 infants and increased activity was found in bone as well as in liver fractions. Repeated serum determinations demonstrated a duration of about 4-6 weeks. The etiology is unknown but an infectious cause is discussed. The condition may be rather frequent but gives no obvious symptoms. It is important to know this condition to avoid unnecessary diagnostic procedures.
