AI Article Synopsis
- Infantile cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are more likely to cause significant bleeding than those found in older patients, highlighting the importance of early detection and treatment.
- Transfontanelle cranial ultrasonography is an effective tool for the early diagnosis of these malformations in infants.
- Timely identification and management of infantile CCMs can reduce the risks associated with major bleeding.
Article Abstract
The case of an infantile cerebral cavernous malformation detected by transfontanelle cranial ultrasonography. Infantile cerebral cavernous malformations tend to cause more major bleeding compared to those in older groups, so early detection and treatment are crucial. Cranial ultrasonography can contribute to the early diagnosis of infantile cerebral cavernous malformations.

Congenital infantile brainstem high-grade gliomas (HGGs) are extremely rare. Given the limited literature characterizing this disease, management of these tumors remains challenging. Brainstem HGGs are generally associated with extremely poor prognosis.

Introduction: Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) typically has a profound impact on the neurodevelopment of patients. The study on IESS indicates possible geographical variation in etiology and a lack of data from China. Our study intends to summarize the etiology of IESS and analyze its characteristics.

Dravet syndrome (DS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) that begins in the first year of life. While most cases of DS are caused by variants in SCN1A, variants in SCN1B, encoding voltage-gated sodium channel β1 subunits, are also linked to DS or to the more severe early infantile DEE. Both disorders fall under the OMIM term DEE52.

Mutations in Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway genes, for example, (SUFU), drive granule neuron precursors (GNP) to form medulloblastomas (MB). However, how different molecular lesions in the Shh pathway drive transformation is frequently unclear, and mutations in the cerebellum seem distinct. In this study, we show that fibroblast growth factor 5 (FGF5) signaling is integral for many infantile MB cases and that expression is uniquely upregulated in infantile MB tumors.

Dynein Cytoplasmic 1 Heavy chain 1 (-related disorders are a spectrum of conditions including neurodevelopmental disorders, congenital brain malformations, and neuromuscular diseases. These clinical features may co-occur, with four main disease entities including epilepsy with developmental epileptic encephalopathy such as infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2O, spinal muscular atrophy with lower extremity-predominance (SMALED), and congenital cortical malformations. Epilepsy associated with this disorder often becomes drug-resistant and requires multiple medications and, in some cases, non-pharmacological treatments.
