Remote effect of malignancy on the nervous system in children / Thaddeus W. KURCZYNSKI in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 22-2 (April 1980)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 22-2 (April 1980) . - p.205-222 Titre : Remote effect of malignancy on the nervous system in children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Thaddeus W. KURCZYNSKI, Auteur ; Amimul A. CHOUDHURY, Auteur ; Samuel J. HORWITZ, Auteur ; Uros ROESSMANN, Auteur ; Samuel GROSS, Auteur Année de publication : 1980 Article en page(s) : p.205-222 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A 13-year-old boy with Hodgkin's disease developed acute polyneuropathy and autoimmune hemolytic anemia. Sural nerve biopsy and postmortem examination demonstrated no metastatic involvement and a lack of cellular inflammatory infiltration in the nervous system. There was significant axonal degeneration in peripheral nerves and the dorsal funiculus. These findings suggest a non-metastatic polyneuropathy associated with Hodgkin's disease, and similar cases, predominantly in adult patients, have been reported. This case emphasizes the occurrence of a paraneoplastic syndrome in children, though such syndromes appear to be rare compared with adults.

Sequential and non-speech praxic abilities in developmental verbal apraxia / Dorothy M. ARAM in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 25-2 (April 1983)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 25-2 (April 1983) . - p.197-206 Titre : Sequential and non-speech praxic abilities in developmental verbal apraxia Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Dorothy M. ARAM, Auteur ; Samuel J. HORWITZ, Auteur Année de publication : 1983 Article en page(s) : p.197-206 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Verbal and non-verbal sequential abilities were compared in a group of 10 children with developmental verbal apraxia. Manual gestures, constructional praxic abilities and non-speech volitional oral movements were also studied. Results indicated that these children were deficient in verbal sequential abilities, both with reference to their non-verbal sequential abilities and to normative data. As a group, the children did not present manual-gestural or constructional apraxias, nor oral apraxias for single non-speech volitional movements. However, most had difficulty with sequences of non-speech volitional oral movements.
