Abstract:
:Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome is a paraneoplastic syndrome that may reveal a primitive tumor. Neuroblastoma in children and small cell lung carcinoma in adults are the leading tumors revealed or expressed by paraneoplastic phenomena. The clinical neurologic manifestations of Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome are muscular weakness, sleepiness, absence of reflexes, and dysautonomia. Neurologic manifestations are explained by the induction of an autoimmune response because of the presence of antigens that are expressed by the tumor. Neurologic paraneoplastic disorders may also be the result of toxicity of drugs, coagulopathy, infection, or metabolic diseases. We describe the case of a 13-month-old child with unusual neurologic symptoms because of the presence of an abdominal neuroblastoma.

杂志文章abstract::We report two cases of total colonic aganglionosis in which the ileocecal valve and right colon were preserved. The aganglionic ileal segment is removed leaving behind only a very short prececal remnant, which is anastomosed end-to-back to the remaining ileum. An ileal loop (of approximately 20 cm in length) is isolat...
