Abstract Suction rectal biopsies in a newborn and a 10-month-old infant presenting with intestinal obstruction showed marked increase in neurons and nerve bundles in the submucosa.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
After a rectal biopsy, a 3-week-old boy developed centripetally progressive distal limb gangrene. This was accompanied by transient hypertension and high levels of circulating immune complexes.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Subsequent histologic study of mediastinal and subcutaneousmasses established the diagnosis of multicentric infantile myofibromatosis. The patient died at 16 wk of age with tumor nodules in several visceral and parietal structures.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The patient was a 22-year-old female who exhibited dysarthria, gait disturbance, and generalized dystonia with rigidity. Beta-galactosidase activity in leukocytes was absent and sialidase activity in cultured fibroblasts was normal.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A 21-month-old boy with a family history of parental consanguinity and two siblings having died of a progressive neurological disorder was investigated for a neurometabolic disease because of recent loss of gait and lack of intellectual progress.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Both patients had a history of behavioral problems marked by frequent temper tantrums. Both had nondiagnostic magnetic resonance imaging of the head and metabolic work-ups.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
This case, showing features of both mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy and mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS), indicates that routine intestinal biopsy can detect mitochondrial[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We recommend a barium enema as a routine initial workup in the management of patients of suspected Hirschsprung’s disease.[scopemed.org]
This case specifically demonstrates the utility of a full thickness rectal biopsy to provide the diagnosis when extensive diagnostic workup and therapeutic trials had failed.[ghrnet.org]
The ultrastructure of rectal biopsy specimens from a 60-year-old woman of unusual familial ataxia with cerebrospinalfluidabnormality was investigated. She had two male siblings similarly affected and a close consanguinity in the family.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Distorted crypt architecture, crypt atrophy, basal lymphoid aggregates and dense lymphocyticinfiltrates each emerged as features with a 76 to 86 per cent probability of predicting idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease, but their discriminant value was[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Abstract Type III GM1-gangliosidosis is a rare hereditary storage disease caused by lack of lysosomal beta-galactosidase and characterized by a slowly progressive course, and extrapyramidal signs, but without prominent skeletal changes or visceromegaly[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In conclusion, computerised morphometry is valuable for the assessment of the treatment of patients with ulcerative colitis and that in the doses used both treatments were of similar efficacy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Therefore, an earlier accurate diagnosis of macroscopic and microscopic features using an appropriate modality improves the prognosis of patients with suspected GI-GVHD.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
This approach also serves as a sensitive test to predict the prognosis when rare CFTR mutations are not identified by standard screening tests [ 12 , 14 , 16 ].[bmcgastroenterol.biomedcentral.com]

We identified two patients: an 11-year-old boy (P1) with new-onset bulbar weakness and parkinsonism and a 15-year-old boy (P2) with severe cognitive and motor deterioration of uncertain etiology who presented at 4 years of age with a gait disturbance[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Diagnostic paracentesis showed a normal cell count and a serum ascites albumin gradient of 0.6, consistent with a non-portal hypertensive etiology. Cultures were negative including acid-fast bacilli.[ghrnet.org]
While the etiology remains controversial, it is thought to be associated with stasis caused by the functional obstruction, resulting in bacterial overgrowth with secondary infection.[sages.org]
