Although rare bleeding disorders (RBDs) are not common diseases, they are important for life-threatening bleedings and prophylaxis approaches, especially in severe forms. In this retrospective study, the authors have analyzed data from children with severe RBDs who were examined at the center over a period of 10 years to describe the distribution, clinical features, treatment patterns, and outcome of severe RBDs in patients. Data from all children (age under 18 y) with RBDs who were examined in the center between 2005 and 2015 were retrospectively reviewed.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the prevalence of adrenocortical hypofunction (ACH) in patients with β-thalassemia, focusing on their cortisol, aldosterone, and DHEAS levels compared to healthy individuals.
- Approximately 38% of thalassemia patients displayed some form of adrenal zone hypofunction, with significant correlations found between ACH severity and factors like age and total body iron load (TBIL).
- Cardiac MRI was identified as a useful tool to predict the severity of ACH in these patients.

Background: Wolcott-Rallison syndrome is an autosomal recessive, multisystem disorder with onset of diabetes in the neonatal period or early infancy.
Case Report: A 9-year-old girl with diabetes and growth failure from 2 months of age presented with ketoacidosis and multiple organ failure. Evaluation for short stature revealed epiphyseal dysplasia.
Age-related serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS) levels per se should not be considered a reliable surrogate parameter for clinical presentation of adrenarche.
