Nonketotic hyperglycinemia presenting as pulmonary hypertensive vascular disease and fatal pulmonary edema in response to pulmonary vasodilator therapy.

The association of pulmonary hypertensive vascular disease with nonketotic hyperglycinemia is rare. We describe 5 infants diagnosed with nonketotic hyperglycinemia, in whom pulmonary hypertensive vascular disease was the main presenting feature, and who developed severe pulmonary edema in response to pulmonary vasodilators.

Atypical case of congenital maxillomandibular fusion with duplication of the craniofacial midline.

We report the first case of syngnathia with hypophyseal duplication and describe the central nervous system (CNS) and craniofacial anomalies associated with hypophyseal duplication in the reported autopsy case. We studied clinical reports, scanner images, and autopsy results of a 2-months-old female baby. The propositus had frontonasal dysmorphism, retrognathia, and bifid tongue.
