Abstract:
Background:
Psychiatric disorders are difficult to assess, diagnose, and treat in most cases. The present case describes an extremely rare psychological disorder
in combination with metabolic and endocrine insufficiency.
Case Presentation:
The condition of a 7-year-old child with inherited psychopathology from his father was found to be aggravated by his mother's alcoholism. The
child was delivered in emergency from a primigravida/primipara mother due to preeclampsia and premature membrane rupture. The examinations
involved clinical signs and symptoms and instrumental and laboratory findings. All laboratory results were compared with the normal range of the
local laboratory. The results of the examination showed pronounced impairment in learning and controlling behavior, and communication, as well
as moderate impairment in orientation.
Disscussion:
The future consequences and complications are poorly understood. Management guidelines for such complicated cases are underdeveloped.
Conclusion:
The child was managed by diet correction, potassium iodide and hormone replacement therapy, calcium supplement, nootropics with 2 courses per
year, examination by a urologist and pediatric endocrinologist 2 times a year, and hospitalization after 6 months of treatment.
