    Clinical Outcome and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings in Infants With Hypoglycemia
    (Sage Publications Inc, 2011) Caksen, Huseyin; Guven, Ahmet Sami; Yilmaz, Cahide; Unal, Ozkan; Basaranoglu, Murat; Sal, Ertan; Kaya, Avni
    The authors examined clinical outcome and cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in infants with hypoglycemia to determine the effects of hypoglycemia on the developing brain. A total of 110 infants with hypoglycemia were included in the study. Of the patients, 36 were females and 74 were males. The age of the infants was between 1 day and 22 months. Of the 110 infants, 47 were preterm neonates, 40 were term neonates, and 23 were older than 28 days. No difference in serum glucose level was noted between symptomatic and asymptomatic infants. The most common observed abnormal findings were hyperintense lesions, encephalomalacia, and cerebral atrophy. Abnormal MRI findings were found in 4% of preterm infants, in 32.5% of term infants, and in 43.5% of older infants. Abnormal MRI findings were statistically significantly more common in symptomatic infants than in asymptomatic infants. Of the infants, 45.5% of hypoglycemic infants had cerebral palsy and/or cerebral palsy plus epilepsy.

    LATE ONSET ARGININE SUCCINATE LYASE DEFICIENCY WITH NORMAL PLASMA AMMONIA LEVEL
    (Nobel Ilac, 2011) Yilmaz, Cahide; Dogan, Murat; Cesur, Yasar; Caksen, Huseyin; Yuca, Sevil Ari; Atas, Bulent; Tuncer, Oguz
    Arginine succinate lyase (ASL) deficiency is one of the most common cause of urea cycle defect and shows all characteristics of this disorders. This disease is presented with hyperammonemia, abnormally kinky hair and mental retardation. 6-years-old-girl was brought to our hospital because of skin eruption, weight loses, abdominal pain, having no appetite, polydipsia and pollakiuria. In physical examination, especially occipital balding, mental retardation, hepatomegaly, ataxia and articulation defect were found. She, who was diagnosed as ASL deficiency after the laboratory examinations, had normal blood ammonia levels. Finally in this study, we emphasize; ASL deficiency must be thought when a child has mental retardation and cerebellar ataxia, even if normal ammonia levels.

    OPHTALMOPLEGIC MIGRAINE
    (Nobel Ilac, 2010) Dogan, Murat; Yilmaz, Cahide; Caksen, Huseyin; Guven, A. Sami
    Opthalmoplegic migraine is characterized with recurrent 3rd, 4th and/or 6th nerve palsy during or following ipsilateral periorbital or temporal headache. In this study, we report four years old child with opthalmoplegic migraine because of a rare occasion. The patient was brought to our hospital for the first time due to ptosis following headache, which continued for 4 days. From the history, it was learned that one year ago, ptosis which lasted for one week following headache, had occurred too. Neurological examination was normal except the complete third nerve palsy. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging and electroencephalography examinations were normal. One year later, the patient was brought to us again with the same complaint. Since the attacks were so few we didn't give him migraine proflaxy and we advice him to use analgesic during the attacks. The patient still comes to our hospital for periodic controls
