Asystole, ventricular tachycardia (VT), ventricular fibrillation (VF), and pulseless electrical activity are the underlying rhythm disturbances in the pediatric age group. If appropriate interventions (cardiopulmonary resuscitation-CPR and/or defibrillation or cardioversion) are not performed rapidly, this condition progresses to sudden death. There have not been many reported cases of the approach and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias after SCA. Herein, we would like to report a case of a 15-year-old female patient with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) who was admitted to our clinic a year ago, and while her left ventricular systolic functions were improved, SCA suddenly occurred. Since the SCA event occurred in another city, intravenous treatment of amiodarone was done immediately and was switch to continuous infusion dose of amiodarone until the patient arrived at our institution-s pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) 3hours later. During the patient-s 20-day PICU hospitalization, she developed pulseless VT and VF from time to time. The patient-s pulseless VT and VF attacks were brought under control by the use of a defibrillator and added antiarrhythmic drugs (amiodarone, flecainide, esmolol, and propafenone). Intriguingly, therapy-resistance bigeminy with premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) continued despite all these treatments. The patient did not have adequate blood pressure measured by invasive arterial blood pressure monitoring while having bigeminy PVCs. The intermittent bigeminy PVCs ameliorated rapidly after intermittent boluses of lidocaine. In the end, multiple antiarrhythmic therapies and intermittent bolus lidocaine doses were enough to bring her cardiac arrhythmias after SCA under control. This case illustrates that malign PVC-s should be taken very seriously, since they may predispose to the development of VT or VF. Also, this case highlights the importance of close vigilance of arterial pressure tracings of patients with bigeminy PVCs which develop after SCA and should not be accepted as normal.Publication Metadata only The Association Between Paranasal Mucous Retention Cysts and Allergic Sensitization(2021-01-01T00:00:00Z) USTABAŞ KAHRAMAN, Feyza; YAZICI, MEBRURE; BÜYÜKPINARBAŞILI, NUR; Soylu, Nihal; İŞCAN, AKIN; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; USTABAŞ KAHRAMAN, FEYZA; YAZICI, MEBRURE; BÜYÜKPINARBAŞILI, NUR; İŞCAN, AKIN; ÖZKAYA, EMİNObjective: Although there is no consensus regarding the etiology of paranasal mucous retention cysts (MRCs) in the literature, several studies suggest an allergic etiology. This study aimed to investigate a potential association between paranasal MRCs diagnosed with MRI scans and allergic sensitization in the pediatric population.Publication Metadata only Late Diagnosis of MELAS Can Lead to A Serious Brain Edema that Ultimately Requires Decompressive Craniectomy(2019-11-01T00:00:00Z) Nizam, Oznur Gokce; ŞENGENÇ, ESMA; YEŞİLBAŞ, OSMAN; Sahin, Seyma Sonmez; İŞCAN, AKIN; İÇAĞASIOĞLU, DİLARA FÜSUN; ŞENGENÇ, ESMA; YEŞİLBAŞ, OSMAN; İŞCAN, AKIN; İÇAĞASIOĞLU, DİLARA FÜSUNPublication Metadata only Williams Syndrome Presenting with Intractable Staphylococcus aureus Endocarditis(2020-02-14T04:00:00Z) Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; UZUNER, SELÇUK; Yesilbas, Osman; BURSAL DURAMAZ, BURCU; YOZGAT, Yılmaz; İŞCAN, AKIN; TÜREL, Özden; UZUNER, SELÇUK; YEŞİLBAŞ, OSMAN; BURSAL DURAMAZ, BURCU; YOZGAT, YILMAZ; İŞCAN, AKIN; TÜREL, ÖZDENPublication Metadata only A Snapshot of Pediatric Patients with COVID-19 in a Pandemic Hospital(2020-10-01T00:00:00Z) BURSAL DURAMAZ, BURCU; TÜREL, Özden; KORKMAZ, ÇİĞDEM; KARADOĞAN, MUHAMMED TALHA; Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; İŞCAN, AKIN; SÜMBÜL, BİLGE; ERENBERK, UFUK; BURSAL DURAMAZ, BURCU; TÜREL, ÖZDEN; KORKMAZ, ÇİĞDEM; KARADOĞAN, MUHAMMED TALHA; İŞCAN, AKIN; SÜMBÜL, BİLGE; ERENBERK, UFUKAim Reports describing coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) in children are fewer than adult studies due to milder clinical picture.

In recent years, although many studies have been performed in preterm infants by applying GMA, few studies have shown the effects of early intervention on GMA.Publication Metadata only Presence of Auditory Pathway Abnormalities in Children With Neurofibromatosis Type 1 With Brainstem Focal Areas of Abnormal Signal Intensity: Diffusion Tensor Imaging Features(2024-06-10) Cesme D. H.; Atasoy B.; Alkan G.; Peker A. A.; Yilmaz T. F.; Yurtsever I.; Iscan A.; Alkan A.; ÇEŞME, DİLEK HACER; ATASOY, BAHAR; PEKER, ABDUSSELİM ADİL; YILMAZ, TEMEL FATİH; YURTSEVER, İSMAİL; İŞCAN, AKIN; ALKAN, ALPAYBackground: To investigate whether there is a difference in mean diffusivity (MD) and fractional anisotropy (FA) values in the auditory pathways of neurofibromatosis type 1 patients with and without focal areas of abnormal signal intensity (FASI) compared to healthy controls by using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Methods: Patients were classified as group 1 with focal areas of abnormal signal intensity in the brainstem, group 2 without focal areas of abnormal signal intensity, and healthy control group 3 according to the MRI findings. Mean diffusivity and fractional anisotropy values of lateral lemniscus, inferior colliculus, corpus geniculatum mediale, Heschl gyrus, and brainstem were compared between groups. The correlation between mean diffusivity and fractional anisotropy values of auditory pathways and age was investigated. Results: There was a significant difference between group 1 and group 2 in terms of mean diffusivity and fractional anisotropy values at lateral lemniscus, inferior colliculus, corpus geniculatum mediale, and Heschl gyrus. Increased mean diffusivity and decreased fractional anisotropy values at brainstem were found in group 1. There was a significant difference between group 1 and group 3 in terms of mean diffusivity values at all auditory pathways. Fractional anisotropy values obtained from lateral lemniscus, inferior colliculus, and Heschl gyrus decreased in group 1 compared with group 3. There was a negative correlation between mean diffusivity values and positive correlation between fractional anisotropy values at lateral lemniscus, inferior colliculus, Heschl gyrus, and age. Conclusions: Our diffusion tensor imaging findings show that the neuronal integrity of the auditory pathways is affected in neurofibromatosis type 1 patients with brainstem focal areas of abnormal signal intensity. We think that the disappearance of brainstem focal areas of abnormal signal intensity associated with myelin repair and the regression of diffusion tensor imaging changes in the auditory pathways occur simultaneously with advancing age in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1.
