Rare Presentation of Pediatric Nervous System Lyme Disease: A Case Report.

Lyme disease is a multisystem infectious disease. It is caused by the dissemination of after a tick bite. It has various manifestations across different age groups.

Identification, management and complications of intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome in neonatal intensive care unit (a single centre retrospective analysis).

The abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is a result of increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) due to tissue edema or free fluid collecting in the abdominal cavity. Elevated pressure in the abdomen is referred to as intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH). The end result of ACS, if undetected and untreated, is multisystem organ failure and patient death.

The role of permanent invasive monitoring of intracranial pressure in the treatment of infants with posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation after intraventricular haemorrhage (case report).

Posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation (PHVD) is a major complication of intraventricular haemorrhages in very preterm infants. Posthaemorrhagic ventricular dilatation is associated with a high rate of disability, multiple impairments and adverse effects of shunt surgery for hydrocephalus. It may lead to an impaired neurological prognosis, caused by a raised intracranial pressure (ICP) and concomitant decreased cerebral blood perfusion.
