Presentation
Case presentation We chronicle the case of a pre-term infant with a birth weight of 2 kilograms, born at the 33rd week of gestation, who presented to the neonatal intensive care unit on the second day after birth. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Gastrointestinal
- Chronic Diarrhea
The high mortality of up to 80% in the first year of life is most often due to systemic sepsis (from skin infections) and/or chronic diarrhea with protein-losing gastroenteropathy, which occurs despite successful surgical correction of gastrointestinal [accessanesthesiology.mhmedical.com]
Psychiatrical
- Suggestibility
For this reason, some studies suggested withholding PA surgical correction to avoid unwarranted surgery-related sufferings [5]. [eurorad.org]
The term spontaneous suggests a cause separate from necrotizing enterocolitis, ischemia, trauma from gastric intubation, distal intestinal obstruction, or accidental insufflation of the stomach during assisted ventilation 9. [journals.lww.com]
Workup
Further diagnostic workup revealed the presence of Carmi syndrome. The patient was treated surgically but eventually deteriorated and passed away. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
X-Ray
- Pneumoperitoneum
Radiograph of the abdomen showed gross pneumoperitoneum. Routine blood investigations were normal. The child was started with intravenous fluid, nasogastric aspiration, and antibiotics – piperacillin with tazobactam, amikacin, and metronidazole. [journals.lww.com]

The surgical treatment of PA depends on the anatomic variety. PA displays three anatomic variations. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
Prognosis is usually very poor. Death usually occurs during the first year of life, as a result of septic complications. e-Published: 16 May, 2013 [mona.uwi.edu]
After gleaning the mother's understanding of her infant's condition, the medical team clarified the grave prognosis of Carmi syndrome compounded by renal failure. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
Reviewing the literature, we found immunofluorescence microscopy to be most decisive examination to determine the prognosis of this severe disease. [openscience.ub.uni-mainz.de]
The long-term prognosis of EB–CPA depends on the severity of cutaneous manifestations. [journals.lww.com]
The disease has a poor prognosis due to prematurity, extensive skin loss associated fluid and electrolyte imbalance, malnutrition, respiratory morbidities, significant renal disease, and sepsis. [eurorad.org]
Etiology
NGP, irrespective of its etiology, is a surgical emergency. All NGP during surgery should be explored to identify any distal obstruction. [journals.lww.com]
In order to better elucidate the etiology underlying the patient's gastrointestinal symptoms, an upper gastrointestinal tract (GIT) contrast study was performed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology In junctional EB, blister formation in the plane of the lamina lucida results in separation of the epidermis from the basal lamina. [accessanesthesiology.mhmedical.com]
Prevention
Adequate premedication may prevent struggling with an uncooperative patient and thus help reduce resultant skin damage. The goal is to prevent trauma to skin and mucosal surfaces by appropriate positioning and padding. [accessanesthesiology.mhmedical.com]
