RESUMO
La macrosomía es un factor de riesgo de traumatismos obstétricos y se asocia con morbimortalidad neonatal. El cefalohematoma y la fractura clavicular son los más frecuentes. Los traumatismos intrabdominales son poco frecuentes. El hematoma de la vaina de los rectos es una acumulación de sangre en la vaina del músculo recto mayor del abdomen. Se asocia con traumatismos, cirugías y tratamiento anticoagulante, en especial en los adultos y las personas de edad avanzada. En este artículo presentamos el caso de un recién nacido de sexo masculino con parto vaginal distócico. Durante el examen físico se observó un hematoma periumbilical de 1 x 1 cm y un cefalohematoma parietal de 1 x 1 cm. En la ecografía abdominal y la tomografía computada del abdomen se observó un hematoma de la vaina del recto derecho de 7 x 4 x 2 cm.
Macrosomia is a risk factor for birth injuries and is associated with neonatal morbidity and mortality. Cephalohematoma and clavicular fracture are the most frequent birth injuries. Intraabdominal injuries are uncommon birth injuries. Rectus sheath hematoma (RSH) is an accumulation of blood in the sheath of rectus abdominis muscle. It is associated with trauma, operations and anticoagulant therapy, especially in adults and elders. We present a macrosomic male neonate with difficult vaginal delivery, who had in the physical examination periumblical ecchymose of 1x1 cm and a parietal cephalohametoma of 1x1 cm. The abdominal ultrasonogram and the computed tomography scan of the abdomen showed a 7x4x2 cm right rectus sheath hematoma.

Los andadores se utilizan frecuentemente a pesar de que su uso puede ocasionar lesiones. Se realizó una encuesta para obtener información sobre las actitudes y el abordaje de los pediatras respecto del uso de andadores. Se invitó a 247 pediatras que asistieron al 44° Congreso Turco de Pediatría y Europediatría (2008) a responder un cuestionario preparado por los autores. Se incluyeron en el análisis 226 cuestionarios respondidos en forma completa. La mediana de edad de los participantes (119 mujeres) fue de 39 años (29 a 58). De ellos, 4% recomendaban el uso de andadores, 32,3% dejaban la decisión a criterio de los padres y 63,7% no lo recomendaban. Ciento cinco habían tratado con anterioridad a un bebé que sufrió una lesión relacionada con el uso del andador; de ellos, 73,3% no recomendaron su uso y 57,1% opinaron que la producción y el uso de andadores deberían prohibirse. Conclusiones. El 4% de los pediatras encuestados recomiendan el uso de andadores para bebés y más del 30% dejan la decisión a los padres. Los pediatras que atendieron a un bebé que sufrió una lesión por el uso del andador fueron menos proclives a recomendarlo.(AU)
Infant walkers are still very popular even though their use might cause injuries. A survey was carried out to obtain information about attitudes and pediatricians approach regarding the use of infant walkers. Two hundred and forty seven pediatricians who attended the 44th Turkish Congress of Pediatrics and Europediatrics (2008) were invited to reply to a questionnaire prepared by the authors. Two hundred and twenty six questionnaires replied in full were included. The median age of participants (119 women) was 39 years old (range: 29-58 years old). Out of the total, 4% recommended the use of a walker; 32.2% left the decision to parents judgment, and 63.7% did not recommend its use. A hundred and five had previously treated an infant who had an injury associated to the use of the walker; out of them, 73.3% did not recommend its use and 57.1% stated that there should be a ban on the sale and manufacture of walkers. Conclusions. Out of the total number of surveyed pediatricians, 4% recommend the use of infant walkers and over 30% leave this decision to parents. Those pediatricians who took care of babies who had an injury associated to the use of a walker were less prone to recommending it.(AU)

Rotavirus is the most common infectious diarrhea that causes important mortality and morbidities in small children, severe dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. Extraintestinal signs are rare in rotavirus infections. Recently, afebrile seizures associated with rotavirus gastroenteritis but without encephalopathy, dehydration, electrolyte imbalance or hypoglycemia have being reported. In this article, the fact that rotavirus, which is seen commonly in our country, can be confronted with various clinical manifestations was emphasized by reminding that it can be seen not only in infants with neurologic and systemic disease but also in healthy infants.

La gastroenteritis por rotavirus es la más frecuente de las diarreas infecciosas y ocasiona una importante morbimortalidad en los niños pequeños, además de deshidratación grave y desequilibrios electrolíticos; los signos extraintestinales son infrecuentes. Recientemente se han comunicado convulsiones afebriles asociadas con gastroenteritis por rotavirus, sin encefalopatía, deshidratación, desequilibrio electrolítico o hipoglucemia. Comunicamos el caso de un paciente con convulsiones durante una gastroenteritis por rotavirus, una infección habitual en nuestro país (Turquía), con diversas manifestaciones clínicas, entre ellas, las convulsiones, que pueden verse no sólo en los niños con enfermedades neurológicas o sistémicas sino también en los niños sanos.(AU)
