Presentation
Case Presentation: The first case, 20-year-old female, initially presented to the pediatric endocrinology outpatient care at the age of 9.5 with precocious puberty and obesity since the age of 4 years. [abstracts.eurospe.org]
We present a patient with a putative diagnosis of ROHHAD with complications from her sleep disordered breathing. [onlinelibrary.wiley.com]
The majority of children (83.3 %) presented with rapid weight gain during early childhood, while one child presented later at 9.5 years of age. The sequence of SDB phenotypes of each patient is shown in Fig. 1. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
Conclusions: Children with ROHHAD may initially present with OSA and only develop NH later as well as dysregulation of breathing during wakefulness. [mendeley.com]
In this paper, we discuss two cases with distinct clinical symptoms who presented for evaluation of obesity. Case Reports Case 1 A 7 years 4 months old girl presented with excessive weight gain. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Entire Body System
- Weakness
Accumulated physical stresses to the spine may cause weak or insufficiently formed vertebral structures (i.e. pars interarticularis) to break. [coloradospineinstitute.com]
Weakness is nearly always identified as the main cause of sacroiliac joint pain, so addressing your specific weaknesses is normally highly effective in both the short and long-term relief from SIJ pain. [physioworks.com.au]
SYMPTOMS Common SI Joint Pain Symptoms Lower back pain (below L5) Sensation in lower extremity: pain, numbness, tingling, weakness Pelvis/buttock pain Hip/groin pain Feeling of leg instability (buckling, giving way) Disturbed sleep patterns due to pain [si-bone.com]
Pain, weakness, and loss of sensation occur in all or part of an arm or a leg. Electromyography and nerve conduction studies help doctors locate the damage, and magnetic resonance imaging or computed tomography helps identify the cause. [merckmanuals.com]
Numbness or tingling in the leg or feelings of weakness in the leg may also be appreciated. Typically, symptoms are worsened by sitting, standing, sleeping, walking, or climbing stairs, with the pain occurring on the affected side. [belmarrahealth.com]
- Swelling
Ice may be recommended to help with discomfort and swelling. Gentle massage and heat may also be used to relieve pain. Physical therapy or rehabilitation can help to strengthen the area. [winchesterhospital.org]
This syndrome includes the hallmark of the disorder, heel pain and swelling, most likely resulting from an inflammation of the insertion of the Achilles tendon or the planter fascia. [neckandback.com]

- Severe Pain
When SI joint dysfunction is severe, pain can refer to the hip, groin, buttocks, and even down the back of the thigh. [spinemd.com]
Several different types of doctors may treat SI joint pain. [medicinenet.com]
For example, a patient with disabling back pain with severe pain down the leg and leg weakness who is found to have a herniated disk at the L4-5 level would benefit by surgical removal of the offending herniated disk. [minneapolisclinic.com]
For patients with severe pain, NSAIDs might need to be taken for long durations of time, or else symptoms will return. [draxe.com]
- Localized Pain
Injections for Localization of Pain The injections of local anesthetic with without steroid can be used for diagnosis of pain source whether it is coccyx or some other structure. [boneandspine.com]

- Low Back Pain
Treatment of Low Back Pain/Lumbar Spine Disorders Low back pain treatment success lands squarely on having the correct diagnosis. Appropriate treatment depends upon what the doctor concludes is the cause of the low back pain. [minneapolisclinic.com]
Sacroiliac Joint Disorder: Is that why your back hurts? Low back pain is very common and affects approximately 70% of people in their lifetime (1). For anyone who has experienced low back pain, it can be very disabling. [sierraregionalspine.com]

Neurologic
- Sciatica
The primary cause of sciatica (present in about 90 percent of cases) is spinal disc herniation pressing on one of the lumbar or sacral nerve roots. Sciatica itself actually refers to a symptom rather than a specific disease. [uofmhealth.org]
[…] instabilities, lumbosacral region (approximate) ICD-10-CM Code: M53.3 - Sacrococcygeal disorders, not elsewhere classified (approximate) ICD-9-CM Siblings (same level / similar specificity) of 724.6: 724.1 - Pain in thoracic spine 724.2 - Lumbago 724.3 - Sciatica [emedcodes.com]
For the past 75 years, sciatica has been thought to be caused by a herniated disc and treated accordingly. [erikdalton.com]
Back pain or leg pain ( sciatica ) can typically arise due to injury where the lumbar spine and sacral region connect (at L5-S1) because this section of the spine is subjected to a large amount of stress and twisting during certain activities, such as [spine-health.com]
One of the causes of sciatica is inflammation of the piriformis muscle; this muscle arises from the sacrum and attaches near the top of the femur (thigh bone). [runnersworld.com]
- Irritability
Irritation of any of the nerve roots that contribute to it can lead to back pain that travels through the buttock and into the lower extremity. [uofmhealth.org]
Whenever an SI joint is irritated or injured, the resultant joint dysfunction may cause pain in the lower back and legs. [treatingpain.com]
NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) are an important adjunct to the treatment to help with nerve inflammation and irritation. [tarlovcystfoundation.org]
The entire procedure is done through a small incision, with no soft tissue stripping and minimal tendon irritation. [bluegrassortho.com]
Another way to help ease your irritation in these joints is by wearing a si joint brace. There are a number of lumbar braces at a relatively low price that can help ease these sacroiliac joint pain symptoms so that you can get on with your life! [braceability.com]

- Abnormal Gait
Other causes of sacroiliac joint pain include an abnormal gait. This can stem from have differing leg lengths or pain in the knee, foot problems, hip pain, etc. [braceability.com]
Continuing to run through the pain increases the likelihood of developing a compensatory injury due to an abnormal gait. [runnersworld.com]

See Answer Source: iStock What is the prognosis of sacroiliac joint dysfunction? The prognosis of sacroiliac joint dysfunction varies depending on the cause of the dysfunction. [medicinenet.com]
Prognosis The long-term outlook is variable. Children who are diagnosed early and appropriately managed can have a relatively good quality of life. [orpha.net]
Prognosis of Symptomatic Tarlov Cysts Those who have progressive and prolonged symptoms run a risk of neurological damage, if the cysts continue to compress nerve structures. [tarlovcystfoundation.org]
Respiratory problems constitute the main predictor of poor prognosis of ROHHAD syndrome. [elsevier.es]
Etiology
Etiology Etiology is currently unknown. Genetic studies have investigated numerous genes involved in neuronal development as well as candidate genes of hypothalamic and autonomic dysfunction without identifying any specific mutation. [orpha.net]
Neither term specifies the underlying etiology. Coccyx pain can occur from local trauma or a tumor, but many cases are idiopathic, with no identifiable cause. [emedicine.medscape.com]
HCVR testing was performed due to the etiological ambiguity of the patient's hypoventilation (although a cardinal feature of ROHHAD, her hypoventilation may have only been secondary to her severe OSA). [onlinelibrary.wiley.com]
The patient was screened carefully for risk factors and possible etiology (cause). Questions were asked about training, injuries, medications, menstrual cycle, and past medical history. [davisandderosa.com]
Sacroiliac joint ligament injury and subsequent laxity is a unifying etiology that explains how these mundane accidental injuries can result in a biomechanical disorder. [practicalpainmanagement.com]
Epidemiology
Summary Epidemiology Fewer than 100 cases have been reported in the medical literature to date. [orpha.net]

Prevention
Keep in mind, though, that the best cure for sacroiliac dysfunction is prevention. [yogajournal.com]
Prompt treatment can prevent the injury from causing further problems. [winchesterhospital.org]
