Braga Pediatric Urologist, McMaster Children’s Hospital. Associate professor Department of Surgery/Urology, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON, Canada What is hydronephrosis? Hydro Nephrosis Hydronephrosis += Refers to water Refers to the kidney A build up of fluid or fluid (urine) in the kidney Hydronephrosis is the medical term for a build-up of urine in the kidney. As the urine builds up, it stretches or dilates the inside of the kidney, known as the collecting system. If an unborn baby has hydronephrosis, an ultrasound scan will show a build-up of urine in the kidney. This is called “antenatal hydronephrosis.” Hydronephrosis is found in as many as five out of 100 pregnancies. Hydronephrosis may also be found after birth. For example, if a baby has a urinary tract infection, an ultrasound of the baby’s kidneys and bladder may detect hydronephrosis. Key points to remember if your baby has hydronephrosis • Your baby can grow and develop normally with hydronephrosis. • Hydronephrosis may affect one kidney or both. • Hydronephrosis is a finding, not a disease. • Further tests are needed to find the cause of hydronephrosis. • If the cause is known, a pediatric urologist will discuss the possible treatment. Surgery is sometimes required to correct the cause of the hydronephrosis. Hydronephrosis is often transient and improves without any intervention.

  • Case Study: Testing for Genetic Disorders
    Case study: Testing for genetic disorders Purpose: A genetic disorder is a disorder that is caused by an abnormality (or several abnormalities) in a person’s genome. Genetic disorders are often hereditary, which means they are passed down to a child from its parents. The most common genetic disorder is familial hypercholesterolaemia (a genetic predisposition to high cholesterol levels), which is thought to affect 1 in 250 people in the UK. Other disorders, such as cystic fibrosis, are rarer although they can be relatively common in particular ethnic groups; for instance, the incidence of cystic fibrosis in Scotland is almost double the global average. Collectively genetic disorders affect lots of people because there are more than 10,000 different types worldwide. Genetic testing is used to inform people whether they have a disorder, or if there is a chance they might pass a disorder on to their children. Photo credit: jxfzsy/ iStockphoto Photo credit: monkeybusiness/ iStockphoto Approaches to identifying genetic disorders In the UK, if a person is concerned they might have, or might develop, a genetic disorder based on their family history, they can: Go to their GP, who might refer them for genetic testing. Patients usually provide a DNA sample, which is then analysed for a specific abnormality. Usually a single gene will be tested, but whole-genome sequencing approaches are being developed. The 100,000 Genomes Project, for example, aims to study whole-genome sequences from patients with cancer and rare disease Use a commercial genetic testing service. In this case, customers collect samples of their own DNA and send them away for analysis and interpretation Take no action.

Autosomal-recessive pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1) is a rare genetic disorder caused by different variations in the ENaC subunit genes. Most of these variations appear in SCNN1A mainly in exon eight, which encodes for the alpha subunit of the epithelial sodium channel ENaC. Variations are nonsense, single-base deletions or insertions, or splice site variations, leading to mRNA and proteins of abnormal length. In addition, a few new missense variations have been reported. What this study adds ? We report a novel mutation [ c.729_730delAG (p.Val245Glyfs*65) ] in the exon 4 of the SCNN1A gene In case of autosomal recessive pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1. Patient with PHA1 requires early recognition, proper treatment, and close follow-up. Parents are advised to seek genetic counseling and plan future pregnancies. proof Abstract Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1) is an autosomal-recessive disorder characterized by defective regulation of body sodium levels.

  • Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn
    Intensive Care Nursery House Staff Manual Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn INTRODUCTION and DEFINITION: Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn (HDN), also known as erythroblastosis fetalis, isoimmunization, or blood group incompatibility, occurs when fetal red blood cells (RBCs), which possess an antigen that the mother lacks, cross the placenta into the maternal circulation, where they stimulate antibody production. The antibodies return to the fetal circulation and result in RBC destruction. DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS of hemolytic anemia in a newborn infant: -Isoimmunization -RBC enzyme disorders (e.g., G6PD, pyruvate kinase deficiency) -Hemoglobin synthesis disorders (e.g., alpha-thalassemias) -RBC membrane abnormalities (e.g., hereditary spherocytosis, elliptocytosis) -Hemangiomas (Kasabach Merritt syndrome) -Acquired conditions, such as sepsis, infections with TORCH or Parvovirus B19 (anemia due to RBC aplasia) and hemolysis secondary to drugs. ISOIMMUNIZATION A. Rh disease (Rh = Rhesus factor) (1) Genetics: Rh positive (+) denotes presence of D antigen. The number of antigenic sites on RBCs varies with genotype. Prevalence of genotype varies with the population. Rh negative (d/d) individuals comprise 15% of Caucasians, 5.5% of African Americans, and <1% of Asians. A sensitized Rh negative mother produces anti-Rh IgG antibodies that cross the placenta. Risk factors for antibody production include 2nd (or later) pregnancies*, maternal toxemia, paternal zygosity (D/D rather than D/d), feto-maternal compatibility in ABO system and antigen load. (2) Clinical presentation of HDN varies from mild jaundice and anemia to hydrops fetalis (with ascites, pleural and pericardial effusions). Because the placenta clears bilirubin, the chief risk to the fetus is anemia. Extramedullary hematopoiesis (due to anemia) results in hepatosplenomegaly.
