1. What Are The Main Clinical Features Of Osteomyelitis?

Intermittent severe abdominal pain- screaming child for bouts of 2-3 mins bliary vomit red current jelly stools- due to blood it is telescoping of the bowel which most commonly occurs in the ileum to the transverse colon. Most common in 1st year of life. The cause of intussusception is thought to be from inflammation that causes enlargement of the payers patches in the bowel wall (lympatic tissue), which acts as a lead point and gets dragged into the lumen in a telescoping action with peristalsis. Ultrasound imaging is quite sensitive and specific for intussusception, whereby there is a 'target sign' representing bowel within bowel when viewed end on. Intussusception is treated successfully in 80-90% of cases using an air hose to perform an 'air enema' which pushes the bowel back (like blowing up a rubber glove finger). Done under ultrasonographic guidance as both an investigation and treatment. Only contraindication= peritonitis and septicaemia.Renal or endocrine problems that run in familiesInsidious onset fever bone tenderness due to periosteal reaction if infection is in bone metaphysis the adjacent joint may be swolen.Minor trauma, exercise, fever

21. Malrotation With Volvulus â€“ Explain This Condition To The Parents And What The Surgical Procedure Involves

Normally when we are growing as an embryo and fetus our intestines start off straight. Throughout our growth the intestines actually move and then rotates resulting into the location that stays with us for the rest of our lives. Your child has not had the correct rotation of the intestines. What this means is that her bowel has more slack and is predisposed top becoming twisted. When it becomes twisted it obstructs poo going through and can twist around blood vessels, stopping adequate blood supply to other parts of the gut. This is what is happening with your child. Whilst it is a serious problem, it is relatively common and fixable with surgery. What the procedure involves is a midline scar, going in and loosening any tight bands of tissue (lads bands) that could be contributing, then untwisting the intestines, checking sure everything is ok then placing the bowel in the correct location.
