Item Acute Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis: Two Different Presentations(2014) Kilicaslan, Buket; Erol, Ilknur; Demir, Senay; Yazici, Nalan; AAW-9958-2021Acute cerebral venous sinus thrombosis is a rare disorder in children, but is often secondary to infections. The clinical features of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis are based on the localization and size of the affected vessel and age of the patient. In this article we encountered two different presentations of acute cerebral venous sinus thrombosis in two children aged 8 and 12 years old.Item Kartagener's Syndrome Presented with Nasal Obstruction: A Case Report(2014) Asilsoy, Suna; Kilicaslan, Buket; Ozer, Cem; 0000-0002-6641-5300; ABH-1785-2020; AAW-9958-2021; AAM-7975-2020The nasal polyposis is a chronic inflammatory process of the nasal mucosa. Although it is rare in children, there may be also association with cystic fibrosis and primary ciliary dyskinesia. About 50% of primary ciliary dyskinesia patients develop situs inversus and it is known as Kartagener's syndrome. The Kartagener's sydrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by sinusitis, bronchiectasis, situs inversus. Clinically, patients present to the otolaryngologist with nasal obstruction. We as pediatricians, should consider nasal polyposis as a rare cause of nasal obstruction in children. In the presence of recurrent upper and lower respiratory tract infections accompanying nasal polyposis, Kartagener's syndrome must be kept in mind as a rare reason.
