A female child with generalized tonic clonic seizures, developmental delay and on valproate therapy for 3 years presented with progressive generalized gum enlargement. Child received valproate starting initially at dose of 20 mg/kg/day which was later increased to about 30 mg/kg/day. On examination there was massive gum hyper-trophy (Fig, 1) and global developmental delay. Valproate was hence omitted and replaced with carbamazepine, after which the gum hypertrophy stopped progressing.

Onfalitis. The Lancet. Vol. 364: 1522, 23 oct. 2004  
A baby boy was brought to the hospital at 6 days of age with swelling and discharge from the umbilicus. We examined him, and found a febrile, irritable infant with extensive erythema, induration and tenderness around a black umbilicus (figure). We started broad spectrum antibiotics. A complete blood count showed neutrophilic leucocytosis and culture of the umbilical stump culture grew E coli, Enterococcus, and Bacteroides species which were sensitive to the antibiotics he received. 24 h later he developed generalised seizures and required ventilatory support. We excised the umbilicus and did a fasciotomy of the abdominal wall. However, the baby developed severe sepsis with hypotension and renal failure. Despite aggressive management with vasopressors and peritoneal dialysis, he died 2 days later.

Leucocoria. Indian Pediatrics Marzo 2004  
A 2-year-old female patient presented with complaint of gradual diminution of vision in the right eye for 3 months. It was associated with whitish discoloration of the pupillary region of the eye. There was no history of trauma, redness, swelling or discharge from the eyes. There was no past history of any fever or rashes. The family history was not significant. On clinical examination, the child could not perceive light in the right eye. The pupil in the right eye was dilated and not reacting to light. Fundus glow was absent on ophthalmoscopic examination. The child had leukocoria (while reflex) in the right eye (Fig. 1). A creamish white mass was seen filling almost the entire vitreous cavity behind the lens of the eye. The left eye was normal. The CT scan of orbits revealed the presence of an enlarged eyeball on the right side that harbored a solid mass in the posterior segment with multiple foci of calcification that was consistent with the diagnosis of retinoblastoma of the right eye.

Neurocisticercosis.NEJM.Vol.350(3):266,2004  
A 15-year-old Peruvian girl who lived in the Andes mountains had a three-month history of headache, nausea, vomiting, and visual obscuration and a one-month history of incoherent speech, confusion, and visual and auditory hallucinations. On examination, she had bilateral papilledema, neck stiffness, and psychomotor retardation. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain revealed numerous diffusely distributed, cystic areas, which created a "Swiss cheese" appearance. On the T2-weighted scan (Panel A), the cysts were bright. On the T1-weighted scan (Panel B), numerous cysts were evident in the tongue, and intraventricular cysts (arrow) were also present. The cysts were dark, although after the administration of gadolinium, a few showed ring enhancement (Panel C). The FLAIR (fluid-attenuated inversion recovery) sequence showed an eccentrically positioned, punctate, bright signal within most of the cysts, each representing a scolex (Panel C, inset). A stool examination revealed ova of the pork tapeworm, Taenia solium. Western blot analysis was positive for cysticercosis. The serum white-cell count was normal, and the eosinophil count was 4 percent. The patient was treated for one month with albendazole (15 mg per kilogram of body weight per day) and prednisone (60 mg per day, with tapering of the dose at the end of the month). At a follow-up visit eight months later, the patient's recovery was found to be clinically complete, and MRI of the brain revealed resolution of the cysts.

Enfisema subcutaneo  
Subcutaneous emphysema indicates a break in the integrity of the airway at some point between the pharynx and terminal bronchiole. Air trapped under the skin gives rise to a characteristic crackling sensation on palpation. Subcutaneous emphysema most commonly occurs as a result of pneumo-mediastinum or pneumothorax, but can also follow perforating injury to larynx or trachea. Sometimes it may be a complication of asthma or thoracocentesis. If the cases of the air leak is from respiratory system, no specific treatment is required and resolution occurs by resorp-tion of subcutaneous air. Rarely dangerous compression of trachea by air in the surrounding soft tissue requires surgical intervention.

Sindrome de Cockayne. Indian Pediatrics.  
A 3½-year-old male child presented with history of developmental delay. On examination he was short statured (height 78 cm) and had microcephaly (head circumference 43 cm). There was an erythematous malar rash (photosensitive), prominent but low set ears, prognathism, maloccluded and carious teeth (Fig. 1). He was also mentally retarded. Ophthalmoscopic examination revealed bilateral optic atrophy with pigmentary retinal degeneration. Systemic examination was within normal limits. Based on these features a diagnosis of Cockaney’s syndrome was made.

Mordedura humana vs canina. NEJM, Set 11, 2003  
A six-year-old boy was admitted to the hospital with an acute abdomen. He had a rectal perforation and two groups of lesions on his right leg. Neither he nor his foster parents had an explanation for the perforation, but all three of them said the marks on his leg were from dog bites. Human bite marks (Panel A) are usually superficial abrasions or contusions. Humans have four incisors in each dental arch and short canines. The incisors leave rectangular marks, and the canines leave triangular marks. The arch is elliptical or oval. In contrast, dogs have six incisors and long, curved canines. Their arch is long, with a short, straight anterior segment. The bite configuration is not oval. Dogs' canines can leave deep punctures, with tissue tearing (Panel B).

One week ago, the mother of this 4-year-old girl noted small red dots on the child's legs, which the primary pediatrician diagnosed as bug bites. The lesions became larger, and a schoolteacher confronted the mother about what she thought were bruises on the child's legs. Concerned, the mother brought the child to a dermatologist, and biopsy was performed; however, the mother states that no diagnosis was made. Now, nearly hysterical, the mother brings her daughter to the emergency department and complains that the rash looks worse and that the child refuses to walk. The girl is afebrile, appears well, and she is able to ambulate. What is the diagnosis?

A 14-year-old girl is brought to you complaining of an itchy red rash on her back (Figure 1). The rash appeared four months ago as a scaly red bump and enlarged over several weeks in an annular pattern to cover a large area (see photo). She was treated at that time with topical 1% clotrimazole and 0.05% betamethasone dipropionate cream; the rash cleared up almost completely. Within two weeks of ending therapy, however, the rash reappeared. Treatment was started again, with success, and again the rash recurred once the topical therapy was stopped. Since then, the rash has reappeared every time treatment is stopped, and improvement is seen only after the topical cream is reapplied.

Dermatosis Bulosa Crónica de la Niñez. Indian Pediatrics. Enero 2003  
A seven-year-old boy presented with multiple vesicobullous lesions over the lower abdomen, genitalia and both extremities for four years. The lesions were discrete, tense, and the ‘bulla spread sign’ was negative. They were lying over a non-erythematous base while the surrounding skin was variably pigmented, denoting areas of prior healed lesions (Fig.1). Excoriation marks revealed the itchy nature of the disease. Mucous membranes, hair and nails were uninvolved. The course of the disease had been waxing and waning. New lesions always appeared in vicinity of the older healed ones. Intermittent courses of oral steroids had helped in temporary partial remission, only to resurface again. The patient was started on dapsone 25 mg per day and a dramatic, though partial response was evident by the end of first week. At the end of second week, the dose was escalated to 50 mg per day, and the patient has been in complete remission since.

Otro nevus lineal.Caso de Medscape  
A 6-year-old boy is referred by his pediatrician to the dermatology department for evaluation and possible removal of a lesion. The lesion has been present since birth and has grown slowly with the child's growth. Initially thought to be a wart, it has persisted despite treatment with liquid nitrogen. The mother's main concern at this point is that her son's classmates are teasing him about the lesion. The child is otherwise healthy, and he is motivated to have the lesion removed.Examination reveals a linear 6 1-cm epidermal collection of brown, relatively dry, warty papules. Examination of the rest of the patient's skin reveals no other remarkable findings.
