Abstract

We report an 8 month-old infant with primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAME) due to Naegleria fowleri. The child was treated with amphotericin B, chloramphenicol and rifampicin for 3 weeks. PAME is an almost universally fatal condition with very few survivors till date. Our patient was one of the rare survivors who recovered after treatment and was discharged without any residual neurological deficit. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Objective: To compare the efficacy of double dose (20 µg) with standard dose (10 µg) of hepatitis B vaccine in HIV-infected children., Methods: Unvaccinated HIV-infected children were randomized to receive 3 doses of double dose (N=27) or standard dose (N=28) of recombinant Hepatitis B vaccine. Anti-HBs antibody titres were measured 3 mo after the last dose. An antibody titre ≥10 mIU/mL 12 weaks after the third dose was considered as serporotection., Results: Seroprotection was achieved by 17 (60.7%) children in standard dose group against 20 (74%) in the double dose group [RR (95%CI) 0.8 (0.17-1.7); P=0.29]. CD4 count < 500 cells/mm3 was significantly associated with lower rates of seroprotection., Conclusion: Double dose of hepatitis B vaccine does not seem to provide any advantage when compared to standard dose in HIV-infected children.

Abstract

Fetus in fetu (FIF) is an extremely rare cause of infantile abdominal mass where a rudimentary, malformed monozygotic-diamniotic twin grows inside the other twin. We describe a male infant with double or twin fetuses in fetu. The diagnosis was made on a computerized tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen and confirmed on surgery. Surgical excision was done and the baby did well post operatively.
