RESUMO
Many patients present to our clinic with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. Most have nonspecific symptoms that cannot be immediately attributed to H. pylori. The joint European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (ESPGHAN)/North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) guidelines recommend upper gastroscopy to detect the cause of such symptoms. Herein, we present the case of a 9-year-old girl diagnosed with gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma associated with H. pylori infection using upper gastroscopy. We believe that a patient of such a young age with this serious condition secondary to H. pylori will highlight the importance of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in such cases.
RESUMO
Patients with type-1 diabetes are predisposed to develop a spectrum of liver diseases, which includes fatty liver, steatohepatitis and cirrhosis. The association of hepatitis A infection with type-1 diabetes is extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, our case is the first case report in children. We described a nine year-old girl who had type-1 diabetes and developed hepatitis A virus infection without complications. A review of the literature is also provided.
