Seizures in neonates: diagnosis and management in the emergency department.

Neonatal seizures are associated with high morbidity and mortality, but they can be difficult to diagnose because they often present with subtle signs and symptoms.

Further management depends on the history and physical examination findings, laboratory testing results, and imaging studies.

Tubulointerstitial Nephritis as the Initial Presentation of Crohn's Disease and Successful Treatment with Infliximab.

Our case describes the initial presentation, diagnosis, and management of an adolescent presenting with TIN and underlying CD. Our case emphasizes that CD should be considered in the differential diagnosis of interstitial nephritis as not only a medication-related effect, but also as an extraintestinal manifestation of CD.
