-Negative Gastric Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma in a Girl.

Introduction: Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) arises in a number of epithelial tissues, including the stomach, salivary gland, lung, small bowel, thyroid, ocular adnexa, skin, and elsewhere. It has also been called low-grade B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT). MALT lymphoma predominantly occurs in adults and is rare in children.

Loeffler's syndrome mimicking lung tumor and pneumonia in a child: A case report.

Loeffler's syndrome is a rare and benign eosinophilic pneumonia which is commonly transient and self-limiting. Herein we report a 12-year-old boy who presented with dry cough, hemoptysis, chest pain, no fever and diminished breath sounds on the right lung. Chest imaging showed a consolidation lesion with bronchograms in the right upper and middle lobes, accompanied by a right free-flowing pleural effusion.

Is Serum Lactate a Good Predictor of Mortality in Children Aged 2 Months to 5 Years With Pneumonia in Central Vietnam.

Pneumonia is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in children globally. Lactate, a product of anaerobic cellular metabolism, has been used as an indicator of poor tissue oxygenation and cellular hypoxia. Our objective was to determine whether serum lactate concentration at hospital admission predicted mortality in children aged 2 months to 5 years with pneumonia.

Loeffler's syndrome in a child: A rare radiological and histopathological diagnosis.

Loffler syndrome is an uncommon, self-limited, benign pulmonary eosinophilia that usually lasts less than a month. Abnormal chest radiography occurs in 95% of patients; however, computed tomography findings are not well described. We present clinical features, radiological, and pathological findings of Loeffler's syndrome with secondary bacterial pneumonia in a child.

Relapsed Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Single-Institution Experience.

Background Even though the treatment outcomes of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have improved recently, relapse of the disease still remains a challenge in developing countries. This study aims to analyze the incidence of relapse and survival rates in childhood ALL. Methods A retrospective study of 156 children with de novo ALL between 2012-2018 was conducted.

A case study of three patients with mucopolysaccharidoses in Hue Central Hospital.

Mucopolysaccharidosis is a group of rare metabolic disorders characterized by a deficiency of enzymes in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans. The incomplete degradation process leads to the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans in lysosomes of various tissues, which interferes with cell function. We report three cases that were classified as Hurler-Mucopolysaccharidosis I, Morquio-Mucopolysaccharidosis IV A, and Maroteaux-Lamy-Mucopolysaccharidosis VI.

Causes of Death in Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia at Hue Central Hospital for 10 Years (2008-2018).

. To analyze the common cause of death in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients. .

Early identification and intervention services for children with autism in Vietnam.

Background: In high income countries in Europe and North America, early identification and intervention for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have been linked to improved long-term outcomes. However, in most low and middle income countries (LMIC) little is known about use or availability of such services, which limits the ability of policy and development planning. The purpose of the present study was assess the use of ASD services in Vietnam, an Asian LMIC, in order to identify areas within the field that should be specifically targeted to improve ASD services in Vietnam.
