Research paper thumbnail of Pseudomonas aeruginosa sepsis with ecthyma gangrenosum and pseudomembranous pharyngolaryngitis in a 5-month-old boy

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2014

We reported on a previously healthy 5-month-old boy with initial presentation of fever and diarrhea followed by stridor and progressive respiratory distress. P. aeruginosa sepsis was suspected because ecthyma gangrenosum over the right leg was found at the emergency department, and the diagnosis was confirmed by the blood culture. Fiberscope revealed bacterial pharyngolaryngitis without involvement of the trachea. Because of early recognition and adequate treatment, including antimicrobial therapy, noninvasive ventilation, incision, and drainage, he recovered completely without any complications.

Research paper thumbnail of Mondini Dysplasia Presenting as Otorrhea without Meningitis

Surgical intervention is mandatory. This report highlights the case of a patient with Mondini dysplasia who presented with hearing impairment and otorrhea and was diagnosed and treated before the occurrence of meningitis, thus preventing morbidity and neurologic sequelae. Hearing impairment may be the only manifestation of Mondini dysplasia, and the benefit of hearing screening is emphasized. Temporal bone computed tomography should be considered in children with unilateral sensorineural or mixed-type hearing impairment.

Research paper thumbnail of Rasburicase improves hyperuricemia in patients with acute kidney injury secondary to rhabdomyolysis caused by ecstasy intoxication and exertional heat stroke

Pediatric intensive care unit in a freestanding quaternary hospital. Two pediatric patients with severe rhabdomyolysis and hyperuricemia caused by ecstasy intoxication and exertional heat stroke. Use of a single low dose (6 mg) of rasburicase, a urate oxidase enzyme. Rasburicase was administered on the first and second hospital days with a single low dose of 6 mg (0.086 mg/kg in patient A and 0.092 mg/kg in patient B). Within 24 hrs, the levels of serum uric acid in both patients decreased dramatically, and their creatinine levels decreased and urine output increased concurrently. Continuous improvements in the uric acid levels, creatinine levels, and urine output were noted during hospitalization. Rasburicase seems to be a safe and effective drug for improving hyperuricemia in patients with rhabdomyolysis and renal failure.
