[Acute hepatitis in childhood. Study of 96 cases and 1-year follow-up].

Authors studied 96 children, 56 boys and 40 girls, aged 1 to 16 years, with acute viral hepatitis. 53 patients were diagnosed of hepatitis a virus (HAV) detecting antibodies to HAV of the IgM class; 11 patients were diagnosed of hepatitis B virus (HBV) detecting serologic markers; 32 patients were diagnosed of non A-non B hepatitis. There were no serologic evidence of infection with cytomegalovirus and Epstein-barr virus. They report an analytical and clinical comparative study of acute viral hepatitis, and their evolution during a year, not finding any significative statistic difference. Two patients with HBV remained chronically infected.

[Present-day status of glycogenosis Ib. Report of a new case].

A four-month-old boy affected by glycogen storage disease type I is presented. The child suffered from hepatomegaly, lactic acidosis, fasting hypoglycemia and failure to thrive. He had repeated infectious and cyclic neutropenia. Immunoglobulin and chemotactic neutrophil motility was impaired. Liver biopsy showed increased amounts of glycogen in hepatic cells as assessed by morphological and biochemical grounds. The activity of glucose-6-phosphatase as well as other glycogenolytic enzymes was normal in the frozen liver. The aforementioned characteristics suggested the diagnosis of glycogen storage disease type Ib. The child was first treated by enteral continuous feeding and later on by frequent meals during the daytime and enteral continuous feeding during the night time, improving the hypoglycemia as well as the other biochemical and metabolic abnormalities.

[The value of Doppler echocardiography in the diagnosis of pulmonary artery hypertension in chronic obstructive bronchopneumopathies].

We report a study using Doppler echocardiography looking for pulmonary arterial hypertension (HTAP) in 36 patients presenting with chronic airflow obstruction (BPCO) who are in a stable state. 18 of these (group 1) had confirmed HTAP by right heart catheterisation which had been done the day before and was defined as a mean pulmonary arterial pressure (PAPm) of greater than 20 mm of mercury. The other 18 patients (group 2) did not have HTAP at rest. The systolic ejection flow and the duration of the peak (expressed in msec) was analysed at the time of each examination. The Doppler data was compared between the two groups of patients and also with the results obtained in ten healthy subjects. The Doppler examination was successfully performed in 35 patients in spite of a poor echographic window in 86% of cases. When there was HTAP, the systolic ejection flow had a triangular aspect which contrasted with the dome shaped appearance of the normals. In group 1 the peak time was significantly shortened (p less than 0.01) compared to group 2 and to the healthy subjects. On the other hand there was no linear correlation between the value of the peak time and the level of HTAP measured by the catheter. Thus the severity of HTAP could not be precisely measured using these parameters. In considering that the peak time is normally greater than 100 msec, the sensitivity and specificity of the Doppler examination for the detection of HTAP during the course of BPCO are 90 and 88% respectively, which appears to be superior to the values obtained using other non invasive methods in the diagnosis of HTAP.

[Primary peptic ulcer in childhood: apropos of 16 cases].

We report a retrospective review of primary peptic ulcer disease in 16 children, 8 boys and 8 girls between 2 and 14 years of age, seen at our hospital over a 4 years and 4 months period. Endoscopy was realized in all children and revealed 7 duodenal ulcers (DU) and 11 gastric ulcers (GU) (two patients had both locations). At the initial diagnosis 5 patients were less than 6 years old with a ratio GU/DU of 4:1; in the other patients this ratio was 1:1. In children with duodenal ulcer 56.5% of them had positive family history. The commonest presenting symptoms were abdominal pain (87.5%) and acute gastrointestinal bleeding (68.7%). The follow-up period ranged from 2 to 52 months; in 13 cases follow-up was more than 1 year. Four patients (3 DU and 1 GU) older than 6 years recurred.
