    Objective: Behfet's disease (BD) is a vasculitis characterised by eye, musculoskeletal, neurological and gastrointestinal involvement, in addition to recurrent oral ulcers. Neuro-Behvet is the term used to define the nervous system involvement in BD and is very rarely seen in childhood. This study aims to show that neuro-Behret can manifest a clinical course involving all kinds of neurologic findings in the paediatric population.MethodsThe Clinic of Paediatric Neurology at Uludag University provides tertiary treatment for children up to eighteen years of age in Bursa, Turkey. Five patients who were clinically diagnosed with Neuro-Beket in the last 5 years were included in the study. Results: Seizure, myopathy, transverse myelitis, polyneuropathy, venous thrombosis and facial nerve paralysis were respectively seen in the patients. ConclusionNeuro-Behfet is rare in children, but it is important to know that it can cause various neurological findings, and also systemic findings should be taken into consideration in the diagnosis of neurological diseases. Studies on the neurological involvement of BD in children are inadequate. We believe that paediatric neurologists should be more aware of the neuro-Behfet condition.

    (Türk Pediatri Dergisi, 2021-05-01) Bodur, Muhittin; Toker, Rabia Tütüncü; Başak, Ayşe Nazlı; Okan, Mehmet Sait; BODUR, MUHİTTİN; TÜTÜNCÜ TOKER, RABİA; OKAN, MEHMET SAİT; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı/Çocuk Nörolojisi Anabilim Dalı; 0000-0002-2588-8195; 0000-0002-3129-334X; 0000-0002-9303-5768; JAN-9435-2023; AAH-2684-2021; IZP-6290-2023; DKC-6496-2022
    Background. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a chronic motor neuron disease characterised by progressive weakness in striated muscles resulting from the destruction of neuronal cells. The term juvenile ALS (JALS) is used for patients whose symptoms start before 25 years of age. JALS may be sporadic or familial.Case. Here, we present a sporadic case of JALS because of its rarity in children. The heterozygous p.Pro525Leu (c.1574C>T) variation was identified in the fused in sarcoma (FUS) gene.Conclusion. The p.Pro525Leu mutation in the FUS gene has been detected in patients with ALS, characterised by early onset and a severely progressive course.

    INTRODUCTION: Pediatric Emergency Outpatient Clinic are the units where treated the entire range of emergent and urgent medical conditions. Patients present with a wide range of complaints. Determining the general distribution, frequency and density of Pediatric Emergency Outpatient Clinic applications is of great importance in order to make appropriate future plans. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the clinical features of patients presenting with non-traumatic neurological complaints.MATERIALS and METHODS: The files of the patients who applied to the Pediatric Emergency Outpatient Clinic within one year were evaluated retrospectively. Patients with a known neurological disease who presented to the Pediatric Emergency Outpatient clinic with non neurological complaints, those in the neonatal and trauma patients were not included in the study.RESULTS: It was found that the main complaint of 628 of the patients who applied to the Pediatric Emergency Outpatient Clinic within a year was neurological symptoms. % 50,3 of the patients were found as girls and %49,7 as boys. Seizure was the most common neurological complaint. It was found that %83,1 of the patients who presented with seizures for the first time presented with a febrile seizures and %16,9 with febrile seizures. Status epilepticus rate was found to be %4,5 in patients presenting with seizuresCONCLUSIONS: Seizure was the most common non-traumatic neurological presentation to Pediatric Emergency Outpatient Clinic. We believe that updating knowledge and skills on emergency approach to seizures in Pediatric Emergency Outpatient Clinic will increase the quality of healthcare services to be provided.

    (Bursa Uludag Üniversitesi, 2021-08-01) Cakir, Salih Cagri; ÇAKIR, SALİH ÇAĞRI; Toker, Rabia Tutuncu; TÜTÜNCÜ TOKER, RABİA; Koksal, Nilgun; Ozkan, Hilal; ÖZKAN, HİLAL; Okan, Mehmet Sait; OKAN, MEHMET SAİT; Kocael, Fatma; KOCAEL, FATMA; Yoruk, Gulce; YÖRÜK, GÜLCE; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Anabilim Dali; 0000-0001-5761-4757; 0000-0002-3129-334X; 0000-0002-9303-5768; 0000-0002-1787-6872; IZP-6290-2023; HJZ-4508-2023
    Introduction: The seizure is one of the most common neurological problems in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). Its frequency and etiology differ between preteen and term babies. This study aimed to investigate the properties, causes, response to treatment, and prognostic factors of neonatal seizures in term and preterm babies.Materials and Methods: The files of patients with a diagnosis of neonatal seizure in the NICU between 01/01/2014 and 01/09/2019 were analyzed retrospectively. Gross motor function classification, hearing test results and epilepsy rates were examined for neurological outcomes.Results: A total of 86 patients (43 preterm and 43 term infants) were included in this study. The most common etiological factors were hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) (35%) in term infants and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) in preterm infants (54%). The most common seizure type was subtle seizures in preterm babies and clonic seizures in term babies. The first seizure day was more on the first day and between the 4-7 days in term babies and after seventh days in preterm babies (p <0.05). The onset time of seizures in preterm babies was more after seven days at IVH, and on the first day at HIE (p<0.05). Status epilepticus frequency is higher in preterm (30%) than term (9.3%) (p = 0.015). The response rate to phenobarbital treatment was 71% in term infants and 50% in preterm infants (p = 0.06). According to the criteria (death, epilepsy, hearing loss, autism and gross motor function scale> 2) in our study, the poor prognosis rates were (52%) in term infants and (75%) in preterm infants (p = 0.051).Conclusion: In the etiology of neonatal seizures, IVH in preterm infants and HIE in term infants were the first. The neurological outcomes of patients who had convulsions in the neonatal period should be followed closely.

    (Turkish J Pediatrics, 2021-07-01) Bodur, Muhittin; Toker, Rabia Tütüncü; Özmen, Abdullah Hakan; Okan, Mehmet Sait; BODUR, MUHİTTİN; TÜTÜNCÜ TOKER, RABİA; ÖZMEN, ABDULLAH HAKAN; OKAN, MEHMET SAİT; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı/Çocuk Nörolojisi Bilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-2588-8195; 0000-0002-3129-334X; 0000-0002-9303-5768; IZP-6290-2023; AAF-8981-2020; AAH-2684-2021; AAE-2163-2022; JAN-9435-2023; DKC-6496-2022
    Background. The facial colliculus is an elevated area that is formed by fibers from the motor nucleus of the 7'th cranial nerve as they loop over the abducens nucleus. Clinical signs and symptoms of facial colliculus lesions occur primarily due to injury to the abducens nerve nucleus, the facial nerve fibers around the abducens nucleus, paramedian pontine reticular formation, and the medial longitudinal fasciculus. The etiology of facial colliculus lesions varies by age. While tumors, demyelinating lesions, and viral infections can be involved in young individuals' etiology, vascular ischemia is a common causative factor in older people. Case. In this paper, we present a case of facial colliculus syndrome due to its rare occurrence in a young patient; who developed the signs and symptoms after a herpes infection. Conclusion. Facial colliculus syndrome is rare and the treatment is based on etiology.

    Awareness of sleep and narcolepsy in children
    (Galenos, 2020-06-01) Demir, Aylin Bican; Okan, Mehmet Sait; Tütüncü, Rabia Toker; TÜTÜNCÜ TOKER, RABİA; Demir, Aylin Bican; BİCAN DEMİR, AYLİN; Okan, Mehmet Sait; OKAN, MEHMET SAİT; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Nöroloji Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-3129-334X; 0000-0001-6739-8605; 0000-0002-9303-5768; IZP-6290-2023; V-7170-2017; JCE-6657-2023
    Objective: This study aimed to increase the awareness of narcolepsy in children and emphasize the reduction of the socioeconomic burden caused by the delayed or incorrect diagnosis.Materials and Methods: Demographic characteristics, clinical features, and electrophysiological studies of children diagnosed with narcolepsy in the Bursa Uludag University, Health Practice and Research Hospital, Clinic of Pediatric Neurology, were obtained from medical records.Results: Six children were included in the study. The average age at which the initial symptoms were observed was 11.5 years, whereas the average age of diagnosis was 13.5 years. Daytime sleep was accompanied by cataplexy in five cases and hypnogogic hallucinations in one case. Notably, the seizure was primarily considered in the differential diagnosis before diagnosing narcolepsy.Conclusion: It is crucial to increase the awareness of narcolepsy by physicians. Although families and children cannot express sleep disorders, we believe that questioning of sleep patterns during anamnesis in routine neurology practice could prevent delayed diagnosis.
