Genetic sequencing of children with malrotation and midgut volvulus: A cross‐sectional study

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Intestinal malrotation with midgut volvulus can cause a particularly severe form of pediatric intestinal failure and is often a cause of ultra‐short bowel syndrome (SBS), with longer dependence on parenteral nutrition.

A rare diagnosis during evaluation for metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease: Glycogen storage disease type Ia presenting during adolescence in a male with severe obesity

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a common comorbidity of pediatric obesity that predisposes patients to hepatocellular adenomas (HCAs). HCAs however are nonspecific to MASLD and warrant further evaluation. We present a case of a 16‐year‐old male with severe obesity, and persistently elevated liver enzymes ...
