[Fatal outcome during physiotherapy (Vojta's method) in a 3-month old infant. Case report and comments on manual therapy in children].

Detailed clinical and neuropathological report on a fatal incident during the first manual therapy according to Vojta conducted in a 3 months old baby: during forced active rotation and head retraction the baby suffered from a bleeding into the adventitia of both her vertebral arteries at the level of C1 prompting ischemia of the caudal brainstem with subarachnoid haemorrhage around. It has to be suggested that similar cases already have occurred but have not been reported yet. There might be a time lag between the performance of physiotherapy and the beginning of neurologic symptoms. The risks of manual therapy in children will be discussed.

[A fatal outcome of false croup in lacunar angina complicated by peritonsillar abscess].

The paper reports a lethal outcome of false croup in a 62-year-old man. In pathogenetic chain of the disease the leading role belonged to purulent tonsillitis with peritonsillar abscess and epiglottitis with phlegmone of the adjacent soft tissues including the vocal cords. A severe edema of the latter provoked a complete obstruction in the larynx and asphyxia with all its macro- and microscopic morphological features. Chronic alcoholic intoxication seemed to cause immunodeficiency and slow progression of the disease. Tonsillitis, chronic with exacerbation, was alleviated by chronic alcoholic intoxication leading to weak symptoms, delayed reactions and "strange" outcome. Hyperergia could be due to intake of alcohol surrogate.

Different course of reactive arthritis in two HLA-B27 positive brothers with fatal outcome in one.

During an outbreak of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis III, one of two HLA-B27 positive brothers developed reactive arthritis (ReA), mild at first, but later severely destructive and ultimately fatal. The reactivation of ReA was possibly triggered by an oral polio vaccine. The cause of death was severe secondary amyloidosis. The other brother was exposed to the same Y. pseudotuberculosis strain but did not develop any disease during or after the outbreak. However, he later developed ReA due to a Salmonella infection, with a benign course.
