RESUMEN

Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disease, second in prevalence after Gaucher disease. The onset of symptoms occurs in childhood or adolescence with palmo-plantar burning pains, hypo hidrosis, angiokeratomas, and corneal deposits. In the absence of diagnosis and treatment, the disease will progress to the late phase, characterized by progressive cardiac, cerebral and renal damage, and possible death. We present the case of an 11-year-old male boy who was transferred to the Pediatric Nephrology Department for palmo-plantar burning pain and end stage renal disease. Following the evaluations for the etiology of end stage renal disease we excluded the vasculitis, the neurologic diseases, extrapulmonary tuberculosis. Because of suggestive aspect at CT scan and lack of etiologic diagnosis of renal insufficiency we performed lymph node and kidney biopsy, with a surprising result for storage disease. The specific investigation confirmed the diagnosis.

RESUMEN

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) in children is a rare condition. An increased incidence has been observed in the last few years due to several factors, such as increased survival in chronic conditions, especially chronic kidney disease (CKD), use of catheters, and increased sensitivity of diagnostic tools. VTE includes deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). VTE in children is associated with a two to six times higher mortality risk and a 5-10% prevalence of post-thrombotic syndrome. Overall, 5% of VTE episodes in children are associated with chronic kidney disease. The etiology of VTE in chronic kidney disease covers a wide range of pathologies. Various types of thrombotic complications may occur during long-term use of a chronic dialysis catheter. VTE occurs in 3% of children with nephrotic syndrome (NS). The risks for VTE and arterial thromboembolism (ATE) were particularly high in the first 6 months after the onset of NS. Other causes of VTE are graft rejection due to thrombosis of vascular anastomoses after kidney transplantation (3%) and autoimmune diseases (lupus nephritis, antiphospholipid syndrome). In this state-of-the-art overview, we have reviewed the physiologic and pathologic mechanisms underlying pediatric thrombosis and updated current diagnostic and treatment options, emphasizing personal experience as well.
