    Food Protein-induced Enterocolitis Syndrome: A Single-center Experience
    (Galenos Publ House, 2023) Bahceci, Semiha; Toez, Pinar Kuyum; Ayar, Murat
    Objective: Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is an uncommon, non-IgE (immunoglobulin E)-mediated food allergy that mainly affects infants and young children. Our study aims to evaluate the etiology, clinical phenotypes, and tolerance status of our cases with FPIES.Method: The file records of the patients who were followed up with the diagnosis of FPIES in the Departments of Pediatric Allergy and Gastroenterology of our hospital, between September 2016 and June 2022 were examined, and families who could not attend follow-up visits regularly were contacted by phone.Results: Twelve (66.6 6%) of 18 cases with a mean age of admission of 33.0 +/- 27.5 (2-108) months were boy. The triggers of FPIES were fish in 66.66%, cow's milk in 16.66%, eggs in 5.55%, eggs and milk in 5.55%, and potato in 5.55% of the patients. While 94.44% of the cases had acute FPIES, and 44.4% of them had early-onset (<9 months) FPIES. The most common symptoms were vomiting (10 0%), diarrhea (38.8 8%), pallor (27.7 7%), lethargy (22.22%). Food-specific IgE sensitization was found in 5.55% of the patients, while tolerance developed in 33.33% of the cases during the follow-up. The mean age of tolerance development was 63 +/- 42 (19-112) months.Conclusion: It is important to have knowledge about the symptoms of FPIES for accurate and early diagnosis. While cow's milk is the most prevalent triggers of FPIES in the literature, fish was at the forefront in our series. Despite the limited number of cases, our results are important in terms of giving us an idea about the triggers of FPIES in the western regions of Turkey.

    Neonatal clavicular fracture: Can induction of labor be a risk factor?
    (2024) Özdoğar, Batuhan; Kurt, Cengizhan; Ayar, Murat; Olukman, Ozgur
    Perinatal clavicular fracture is the most common birth injury that may cause neonatal morbidities such as obstetric brachial palsy (OBP) ranging from 0.2 to 3.5%. We aimed to compare the relationship between perinatal clavicular fracture and induced vaginal delivery. All the live births and the neonatal outpatient clinic admissions between June 2016 and December 2022 have been investigated retrospectively. A total of 185 newborn infants with a mean gestational age of 38.3±1.6 weeks and a mean birth weight of 3,451±430.10 grams were enrolled. When compared to all in-born live births, the overall incidence of clavicular fracture was 0.78%. One hundred eighty-one (97.8%) infants were born vaginally and 4 (2.2%) were born by cesarean sections (C-sections). The incidence of clavicular fracture among in-born vaginally delivered infants was 1.26% (n=153) and among C-section deliveries was 0.04% (n=3). In vaginal deliveries, 54.7% (n=99) had prolonged labor, 71.8% (n=130) had received labor induction and 7.7% (n=14) had a history of instrumental intervention. A statistically significant relationship was found between clavicular fracture and prolonged labor, labor induction, increased birth weight, and low Apgar scores (p<0.001). While 21 infants (11.4%) had cephalohematoma, 8 infants (4.3%) presented with symptoms of OBP. Although high birth weight, prolonged labor, and ventouse delivery are the already known major risk factors for neonatal clavicular fractures, induced vaginal delivery has been defined as a new and important risk factor. Induction of labor should be decided when the benefits of immediate delivery outweigh the risks of continuing the pregnancy for fetal and maternal health.
