Öğe ARTERIAL TORTUOSITY SYNDROME: CASE REPORT(Medecine Et Hygiene, 2012) Karakurt, C.; Kocak, G.; Elkiran, O.; Coucke, P. J.; Van Maldergem, L.Arterial tortuosity syndrome: case report: Arterial tortuosity syndrome (ATS; OMIM 208050) is a rare autosomal recessive condition characterized by dysmorphic features, elongation, tortuosity, and aneurysm of the large and middle sized arteries. We report on a 13-year-old boy who presented with a malformed ascending aorta mimicking coarctation of aorta and a cutis laxa-like facial dysmorphia. Based on angiogram, a diagnosis of ATS was made and subsequently confirmed by a homozygous one base-pair deletion at position g.318 of SLCA10. We stress similarities (facial appearance, inguinal herniae, ..) between ATS and autosomal recessive cutis laxa, both being connective tissue disorders disorganizing the elastin network.Öğe Brucella myocarditis in a 3-month-old: probable transplacental transmission(Maney Publishing, 2010) Elkiran, O.; Kocak, G.; Karakurt, C.; Kuzucu, C.A 3-month-old girl presented with myocarditis owing to brucellosis. Her mother had been diagnosed with brucellosis at 28 weeks gestation but did not receive treatment until after delivery. The infant had intrauterine retardation and had gained little weight since birth. It is considered likely that the brucellosis was transmitted transplacentally.Öğe Primary idiopathic chylopericardium presenting with cardiac tamponade(Urban & Vogel, 2014) Karakurt, C.; Celik, S. F.; Celik, R. M.; Elkiran, O.; Ulutas, H.; Kuzucu, A.Primary idiopathic chylopericardium is an extremely rare condition especially in children and young adults. Although the exact pathophysiology of primary chylopericardium has not been established, the reflux of chylous fluid into the pericardial space was suggested as the etiology. Damage to the thoracic duct valves and the communication of the thoracic duct to the pericardial lymphatics or abnormally elevated pressure in the thoracic duct could cause chylous fluid reflux. In this report, we described the case of a 4-year-old boy with primary idiopathic chylopericardium presenting as cardiac tamponade who was treated with video-assisted thoracoscopic window and then surgical duct ligation.Öğe SIRENOMELIA ASSOCIATED WITH HYPOPLASTIC LEFT HEART IN A NEWBORN(Macedonian Acad Sciences Arts, 2017) Turgut, H.; Ozdemir, R.; Gokce, I. K.; Karakurt, C.; Karadag, A.Sirenomelia, also known as mermaid malformation/ syndrome, is a rare, serious congenital anomaly characterized by variable degrees of fusion of the lower limbs and associated with severe malformations of vertebral, genitourinary, cardiovascular system and single umbilical artery. The first pregnancy of a 25-year-old woman resulted in one twin born by Cesarian section at 32 weeks' gestation, who was referred to our hospital with cyanosis, a congenital anomaly and respiratory distress. On physical examination, there was no urogenital region and anal fissure and gender was indeterminate. The arms were in adduction and wrist in flexion position with four fingers on the right hand and two fingers on the left hand. There was a single lower extremity with a webbed single foot and two toes consistent with sirenomelia type IV radiologically. Abdominal ultrasonography showed urogenital system agenesis and echocardiography detected hypoplastic left heart. However, the patient died 4 hours after birth. The other twin was followed for 1 week for nutrition and respiratory support and was then discharged without any problems.Öğe Transcatheter closure of a large patent ductus arteriosus with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension in a child(Urban & Vogel, 2013) Karakurt, C.; Elkiran, O.; Celik, S. F.; Kocak, G.[Abstract Not Available]
