Overgrowth Disorders: A Case of Sotos Syndrome and Overview of Related Disorders.

Sotos syndrome is an uncommon congenital overgrowth syndrome characterized by excessive growth in childhood, learning disabilities, and distinct facial features. We present the case of a young male who appeared to have the classic presentation of Sotos syndrome despite a normal genetic workup. Additionally, we present a brief review of overgrowth syndromes in order to highlight potential challenges differentiating these syndromes in clinical practice.

MIS-C vs Incomplete Kawasaki's Disease in a 12-year-old Female: A Case Study.

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a rare but severe post-infectious complication of SARSCoV- 2 that seems to occur most frequently two to six weeks after infection. MIS-C can present very similarly to Kawasaki's disease (KD) with symptoms such as a skin rash in addition to a prolonged fever. Here we present a case of a 12-year-old African American/Black female with incomplete KD presenting similarly to MIS-C.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Concise Review.

Inflammatory bowel disease is a term describing a group of diseases, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, that cause chronic inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. Both conditions tend to have episodic flares of diarrhea, abdominal pain, fatigue, and unintentional weight loss. This analysis will discuss the etiology, pathophysiology, epidemiology, clinical and histologic features, treatment, and complications of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

Thoracic Myelopathy in a Teenager Caused by Stage IV Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

We report the case of a 19-year-old Native American woman who presented with bilateral lower extremity weakness due to spinal cord compression from late-stage Hodgkin's lymphoma. Hodgkin's lymphoma rarely has an initial presentation of spinal cord compression, except in cases of late-stage disease. The patient partially attributed her delayed pursuit of care to the difficulty of scheduling an appointment during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
