Hypernatremic Dehydration

AbstractWe describe the case of a term newborn who presented with hypernatremic dehydration on day 19 of life. The baby was otherwise hemodynamically stable with no evidence of focal or asymmetric neurological signs. The laboratory tests at the time of admission were negative except for hypernatremia and the extremely elevated levels of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) protein (717 mg/dL) and glucose levels (97 mg/dL). The hypernatremic dehydration was corrected as per the unit protocol over 48 hours. Repeat CSF analysis done after 5 days showed normalization of the protein and glucose levels. Serial follow-up and neuroimaging showed no evidence of neurological sequelae. Unique feature of our case is this is the first case reporting such an extreme elevation of CSF protein and glucose levels that have had no bearing on neurodevelopmental outcome at 1 month and 3 months of follow-up.

Positive Interference

Abstract Therapeutic concentrations of methotrexate can cause significant positive interference in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) protein values when assayed in the Du Pont aca. Conversely, our modified turbidimetric method, in which trichloroacetic acid (TCA) plus a sample blank containing dilute hydrochloric acid is used in place of TCA, exhibits little or no interference from methotrexate. This was verified by assaying solutions that contained a constant amount of protein (approximately 430 mg/L) and various amounts of methotrexate (0.0-2.3 x 10(-4) mol/L) by both the Du Pont aca and the manual turbidimetric method. As expected, the aca results showed increasing protein values with increasing methotrexate, whereas the manual method gave results approximating the expected protein value irrespective of the methotrexate concentration.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Protein

✓ A series of 87 patients with severe brain injury were studied. Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring and external ventricular drainage were used to control ICP at high and low levels. Clearance of ytterbium-169-labeled diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (169Yb-DTPA), Evans blue dye, and ventricular cerebrospinal fluid protein was measured at the two ICP levels over consecutive periods of 4 hours to confirm clearance of brain edema. The results support the hypothesis that brain edema is in part absorbed in the cerebrospinal fluid via transventricular flow.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Protein

Three patients with typical "diencephalic syndrome" have been described. The clinical observation of an emaciated and pale, but remarkably bright, cheerful, and active infant with a normal or increased appetite and food intake should suggest the diagnosis. Physical findings are conspicuous by their absence, although mild nystagmus, tremor, or ataxia may occasionally be present. An elevated total eosinophil count and an elevated cerebrospinal fluid protein are important, though not invariable, features. Metopirone test coupled with ACTH-adrenal stimulation test indicate markedly reduced pituitary reserve. Diagnosis is confirmed by pneumoencephalography and biopsy. It is likely that with increasing knowledge, the clinical spectrum of this syndrome will be broadened, and one might expect to find, on occasions, anorexia rather than increased appetite, lassitude rather than hyperactivity, irritability rather than euphoria, obesity rather than emaciation, and different combinations of all of these features. The results of therapy with beam-directed cobalt irradiation are encouraging.

Syndrome Report

Two cases of linear nevus sebaceous syndrome are described and a review of the eleven cases now reported in the literature is undertaken. The first patient has retardation, seizures, and classic ectodermal lesions while the second patient manifests typical cutaneous lesions and only an elevated cerebrospinal fluid protein as evidence of neurologic disease. The rationale for defining the syndrome as an entity distinct from other neurocutaneous syndromes is discussed and a pleomorphic presentation of the syndrome is suggested.
