Case Report: Adjuvant Therapy with a High Dose of Mitotane for Adrenocortical Carcinoma in a 4-year-old Boy.

This report concerns control of adrenocortical carcinoma in a 4-yr-old boy by adjuvant mitotane therapy. He presented precocious puberty and was diagnosed with adrenocortical carcinoma. He underwent surgical resection, and adjuvant mitotane therapy was initiated, leading to a final dose of 5.

Prenatal diagnosis of slow-rate ventricular tachycardia using fetal electrocardiography.

Objectives: We report a case in which fetal ventricular tachycardia (VT) could be diagnosed, in utero, using a transabdominal fetal electrocardiogram (fECG) with motion-mode (M-mode) echocardiography.

Methods: The fetus was referred at 32 weeks' gestation due to tricuspid atresia. The fetal cardiotocogram demonstrated paroxysmal tachycardia with a ventricular rate of 155 to 160 bpm within the confines of normal sinus rhythm.
