Hartnup dz path
Neutral amino acid transport defect which are in intestinal mucosa and renal tubules…can’t synthesize niacin
main clinical finding assoc with hartnup dz
cutaneous photosensitivity
glutathione synthase deficiency clinical findings
severe metabolic acidosis in first few days of life
jaundice and hemolytic anemia come later with glutathione deficiency
homocystinuria clinical findings
normal at birth, then FTT and developmental delay
homocystinuria path
deficiency of cystathionine beta synthase
Homocystinuria complications
ocular lens sublux, skeletal abnormalities, thromboembolic episodes
most common congenital heart dz
perimembranous VSD
what are the 4 kinds of VSD
perimembranous
inlet
supracristal
muscular
clinical findings associated with a perimembranous VSD
decrescendo murmur, that is hear at lower sternal border. Starting at day 4-5 of life
perimembranous VSD path
pulm vasc resistance gradually decreases with life, thus the shunting of blood also increases with life. The murmur heard aortic valve problem d/t VSD.
Ebsteins anomaly path
tricuspid valve leaflets got problems (adhere to annulus and endocardium)
Ebsteins anomaly etiology
lithium during first trimester
Ebsteins anomaly results in
hypoplastic RV, Enlarged RA, tricuspid regurg, redundant anterior tricusp valve leaflet
how will a child hold their arm s/p radial subluxation
elbow flexed, close to body
tx for radial heaad sublux
pressure on radial head, supinate forearm and flex elbow simultaneously
