Objection: Our purpose is to present the results of the one year-follow up of infants who were diagnosed with antenatal hydronephrosis. Methods: Infants (0-24 months) with diagnosis of antenatal hydronephrosis who were brought into pediatric nephrology outpatient clinics of our hospital were followed up according to the Turkish Pediatric Nephrology Society CAKUT (Congenital Anomalies of Kidney and Urinary Tract) Guidelines. Results: Ninety-three infants (64 males, 0.83 years, range 0.1-2.1 years) previously diagnosed as antenatal hydronephrosis received diagnosis of healthy infant (n=5; 5,4 %) mild (n=70; 75,3%), moderate (n=14; 15,1%), and severe (n=4; 4,3%) hydronephrosis. Voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) was performed in 10 (10,7%) patients, 2 of them had unilateral grade 4 vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). MAG3 scan was performed in 8 (8,6%) patients, two of them had ureteropelvic junction obstruction, one of these patients had undergone pyeloplasty. After one year follow-up of 88 infants, 47 (53,4%) patients had normal, 23 (26.1%) patients had mild, 11 (12,5%) patients had moderate and 7 (8%) patients had severe hydronephrosis. Three cases (3,4%) progressed from moderate to severe disease.
Conclusion:The most frequent cause of antenatal hydronephrosis among our patients was transient antenatal hydronephrosis. However follow-up of cases with a tendency to progress is important.
Kistik fibrozis ile ilişkili diyabet (KFİD), kistik fibrozisin (KF) yaygın bir komplikasyonudur. Kistik fibrozis ile ilişkili diyabetin temel nedeni hastalarda yıllar içerisinde pankreas hasarının artması ile beraber pankreas adacık hücrelerinin kaybı ve insülin eksikliğinin gelişmesidir. Tedavideki amaç çocuk ve adolesanlarda normal büyüme ve gelişmenin ve kan glukoz regülasyonunun sağlanmasıdır. Tedavinin temelini insülin tedavisi ve tıbbi beslenme tedavisi oluşturur. İnsülin tedavisi, KFİD hastalarında akciğer fonksiyonunu stabilize eder ve beslenme durumunu iyileştirir. Kistik fibrozis ile ilişkili diyabetli hastalara yüksek enerji, yüksek yağ ve yüksek tuz içeren bir beslenme planı önerilmektedir. Karbonhidrat sayımı, insülin tedavisi alan hastalarda öğün öncesi insülin dozunun belirlenmesinde yararlıdır. Bu yazıda kliniğimizde izlenen KFİD’li bir çocuk olgunun medikal ve tıbbi beslenme tedavisi literatür derlemesi eşliğinde sunulmuştur.
