Viewers Choice: Kayser-Fleischer Ring in Wilson Disease: Utility of Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography
www.pediatriconcall.com/pediatric-journal/view/ful…
Wilson’s disease (WD) is a hepatolenticular degeneration caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene. It is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting in excessive copper deposition, particularly in liver, eyes and brain. This occurs due to a deficiency of ceruloplasmin, a copper binding protein, often leading to liver cirrhosis. A characteristic ocular sign of Wilson disease is the Kayser-Fleischer (KF) ring, which represent copper deposition in Descemet’s membrane of the cornea.

Case Report: Protein-Losing Enteropathy as a Rare Complication of Giardiasis in Children
www.pediatriconcall.com/pediatric-journal/view/ful…
Abstract:
Giardiasis, caused by Giardia lamblia, is an intestinal infection that presents various clinical manifestations. While malabsorption is a recognized complication, protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) is infrequent. This report describes a 17-month-old healthy girl who presented to the emergency department exhibiting generalized edema attributed to hypoalbuminemia, which resulted from gastrointestinal protein loss. Subsequent investigations
identified giardiasis as the underlying etiology.

Research Letter: COVID-19 and Vasculitis in Pediatrics
www.pediatriconcall.com/pediatric-journal/view/ful…
Pediatric vasculitis entails a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by inflammation of blood vessels that can affect multiple organs. IgA vasculitis is the most common form in children, classically presenting with palpable purpura, arthralgia and potential gastrointestinal tract and renal involvement. While IgA vasculitis is an established diagnosed based on characteristic clinical features, it remains important to consider other etiologies.

Viewers Choice: Culture Prescription Practices for Suspected Neonatal Bacterial Infections in Countries with Limited Resources
www.pediatriconcall.com/pediatric-journal/view/ful…
In resource-limited countries, when neonatal bacterial infection is suspected, empirical antibiotic therapy is initiated with a triple combination of a third-generation cephalosporin (Cefotaxime or ceftriaxone), ampicillin or cloxacillin and Gentamycin. While this approach has been effective in past decades, it is now showing its limitations. With the emergence of resistant bacterial strains, this probabilistic protocol is experiencing increasing failures in the management of neonatal infections.

A 3-year-old child arrived at the emergency department with drowsiness and generalized hypertonia, raising suspicion of encephalitis.
Initial imaging, lumbar puncture, and hospital toxicology screening were normal.
However, further forensic toxicology analysis later confirmed exposure to cocaine, trazodone, and aripiprazole.
📌 This case highlights the importance of considering toxic exposure in pediatric neurological symptoms, even when early screening tests are negative.
