Extrarenal manifestation and complications of inflammatory bowel disease may be detected in a significant number of patients. It is known that the genitourinary tract may be affected but data from childhood population are scarce. We present an unusual bilateral obstruction of ureters, inflammation of bladder wall and vesicoureteral reflux in a boy with ulcerative colitis. Obstructions led to recurrent acute kidney injury with need of surgical intervention to prevent kidney function deterioration.

This report describes the successful dental rehabilitation with zygomatic implants of a patient with complete bilateral cleft palate who was edentulous and had severe maxillary atrophy.

The 5-year survival rate is 90% in children and approximately 40% in adults, with survival increasing through the use of peripheral stem cell allotransplantation (SCT). The relapse rate after stem cell transplantation (SCT) in adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients ranges from 35% to 45%, making relapse a major cause of death in this population.
