Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a congenital tumor-predisposition syndrome of which around 70% develops because of the methylation defects in the imprinted genes at chromosome 11p15.5. KCNQ1OT1 hypomethylation is the most common underlying genetic aberration in sporadic the BWS, accounting for 50% of the sporadic cases but confers the least tumor risk. We present a 5 month-old girl who presented with an excessive weight gain, cushingoid face, arrested gro...

Abali Saygin , Arman Ahmet , Atay Zeynep , Bas Serpil , Cam Sevda , Gormez Zeliha , Demirci Huseyin , Alanay Yasemin , Akarsu Nurten , Bereket Abdullah , Turan Serap

Background: Osteogenesis imperfecta type XVII (OI17) (MIM#182120) have been described recently due to mutation in secreted protein, acidic, cysteine-rich (SPARC) gene located on 5q33.1.Objective and hypotheses: Here we report a novel mutation in SPARC causing OI17.Case: Two siblings presented to our clinic at the age of 10.3 and 0.5 years old. Parents were consanguineous. The older one was born with birth weight &...

Background: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heterogeneous group of brittle bone disease mostly caused by quantative or qualitative defects in type I collagen. In most populations, more than 90% of the patients with OI have dominant mutations in COL1A1 or COL1A2 genes (AD-OI). Less than 10% of the cases have recessive inheritance (AR-OI). Currently 12 genes have been identified as a cause of AR-OI.Objective and hypotheses: We assumed h...

Reconsideration of Mid-Parental Height Calculation

Bereket Abdullah , Bugur Ibrahin Sinan , Guran Tulay , Atay Zeynep , Ekberzade Azad , Gurbanov Ziya , Oge Ece , Tas Cektar Seyid Riza , Turan Serap , Furman Andrzej

Background: Estimation of the child’s genetic height potential (target height) is an important tool in evaluating growth disorders. Midparental height (MPH) calculated as (Mothers height+Fathers height)/2±6.5 cm), used for this purpose, represents the child’s expected height based on parental heights.Objective and hypotheses: To evaluate the classical MPH calculations for our population and to explore the optimal MPH model using different ...

Background: Short stature (SS) is one of the most frequent reasons for referral to pediatric endocrinology clinics.Objective and hypotheses: We aimed to analyse the etiological factors of SS, in patients of our clinic, who are referred from general paediatrics with high likelihood of endocrinological problems after primary screening.Method: 1519 patients (693F) with height <3% were included. Clinical, anthropometric, radiologic...

Hereditary Vitamin D-Resistant Rickets: Report of Four Cases with Successful Use of Intermittent Intravenous Calcium Via Peripheral Route

Abali Saygin , Tamura Mayuko , Atay Zeynep , Isguven Pinar , Guran Tulay , Haliloglu Belma , Bas Serpil , Isojima Tsuyoshi , Turan Serap , Kitanaka Sachiko , Bereket Abdullah

Background: Hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR) is a rare disease caused by mutations in vitamin d receptor (VDR). Patients with HVDRR are usually treated with intravenous calcium (i.v.-Ca) therapy via a central catheter. However, central catheter-related complications can cause important morbidity. In this report, we described four patients with HVDRR from different families. In three of these cases we used a novel therapeutic regime of intermittent IV-Ca ...

Acetazolamide treatment in a patient with pseudohypoparathyroidism with venous calcification

Seven Menevse Tuba , Tosun Busra Gurpinar , Yavas Abalı Zehra , Helvacioglu Didem , Kaygusuz Sare Betul , Eltan Mehmet , Bugdayci Onur , Guran Tulay , Bereket Abdullah , Turan Serap ,

Context: Type 1A pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP-1A) is characterized by target organ resistance to PTH and Albright’s hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO). Basal ganglia calcifications and subcutaneous ossifications can be seen in PHP-1A. Acetazolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, causes metabolic acidosis by increasing bicarbonate excretion from the proximal renal tubule thereby diminish precipitation of calcium and phosphorus. Acetazolamide had been used ...

Context: Steroid 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase deficiency (17OHD) is characterized by decreased sex steroids and cortisol, and excessive mineralocorticoid action. The clinical symptoms of hypocortisolemia are subtle.Aim: The clinical, biochemical, and molecular characteristics of patients with 17OHD were evaluated to determine the factors influencing the time of diagnosis and the management.Pati...

Aim: Quail egg (QE) consumption became popular among children for alleged health benefits. Based on our observation of premature thelarche (PT) in a few children who consumed QE, we investigated the relationship between QE and puberty by a clinical and an experimental studies.Method: In the clinical study, a questionaire was used to compare the frequency and amount of QE consumption (between 55 girls with PT (n ...

Background: Primary hypoparathyroidism (HP) is a rare disease characterized by hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia and low/inappropriately normal parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. We aim to characterize the clinical findings and molecular aetiology of childhood HP in our cohort.Method: DiGeorge-VCFS FISH analysis was performed on all patients (n=28) as the initial step after the diagnosis. In whom, FISH analysis was...
