Öğe Diagnostic and therapeutic approach in newborns with ambiguous genitale with disorder of sex development: consensus report of Turkish Neonatal and Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes Societies(Turkish Pediatrics Assoc, 2018) Cetinkaya, Merih; Ozen, Samim; Uslu, Sinan; Gonc, Nazli; Acunas, Betul; Akinci, Aysehan; Satar, MehmetDisorders of sex development are defined as conditions in which the chromosomal, gonadal, and anatomic sex is discordant. Patients usually present with atypical appearing genitalia. In the assessment of neonates with disorders of sex development, first, it is important to determine whether this situation requires prompt evaluation, and then the karyotype, hormone levels, and underlying etiology should be determined as soon as possible. All these procedures should be performed in the guidance of a multidisciplinary team in reference centers. As the physical examination of the infant is extremely important, the physcian should suspect and then perform a detailed history and physical examinationi and lastly plan the required laboratory and imaging procedures for the definite diagnosis. It is important not to be hurried in the choice of sex. The aim of this article, which includes the diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in infants with ambiguous genitalia, was to provide a common practice for all pediatricians.Öğe Turkish Neonatal Society guideline for the follow-up of high-risk newborn infants(Turkish Pediatrics Assoc, 2018) Acunas, Betu, I; Uslu, Sinan; Bas, Ahmet YagmurDevelopments in perinatal and neonatal care have increased the survival rate of high-risk newborns but led to a rise in chronic diseases seen in these infants. A significant number of them attend primary and secondary health care centers after discharge; however, there are very few standard protocols for the long-term follow-up of these babies. Therefore, we aimed to establish a follow-up guideline that emphasizes on universal screening schemes and takes into consideration national data. The guide presented here provides brief recommendations for physicians in light of evidence-based data for the follow-up of high-risk newborn infants. The steps taken to monitor and solve the problems of all high-risk infants may vary. We hope the use of such a standard approach in evaluating each infant in daily routine will improve the life quality of these high-risk infants.
