SUMMARY A 3 year old girl with Down's syndrome became lethargic and withdrawn, and investigations showed a specific malabsorption of vitamin B12 without proteinuria. Megaloblastic anaemia due to specific malabsorption of vitamin B12 is usually associated with proteinuria. Urban et al reviewed the published reports in 1981 and found only six cases without proteinuria,l and Conway et al reported a further case with neuropathy but without proteinuria.2

There are only 14 case reports of hereditary spherocytosis among American Negroes. We have recently had the opportunity of studying three Negro children with this disorder from the same family. REPORT OF CASES Case1.—On March 5, 1955, a 14-year-old Negro youth was seen for the first time in the accident room of Mercy Hospital. The patient was seen lying on the examining cot in an attitude of flexion on his left side and appeared acutely ill. His respirations were rapid and shallow, and he was unable to give an account of his present illness. The patient's mother and father supplied the necessary information, and stated that nine days previously the patient, who had been in good health, suddenly developed chills and fever. The patient's family physician was called. He examined the patient, stated that he had a viral infection, and prescribed an unknown medication. The patient was seen two

IN A STRICTLY modern sense, children's hospitals are usually considered to be institutions that limit themselves to the care of sick children. This concept, however, is not wholly true. A number of the larger children's hospitals have included within the sphere of their activities not only treatment but preventive care as well and have always emphasized research and teaching. Some, like the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, have evolved into great children's medical centers covering nearly every phase of child welfare and study. The history of children's hospitals is, of course, closely linked with the history of hospitals in general. Embryonic types of hospitals are known to have existed in the early civilizations of Mesopotamia, Egypt, Asia, and other areas. Ceylon had a hospital in the fifth and another in the second century B. C.; eighteen physicians worked in the latter hospital. In India, King Asoka established hospitals in the third

In 1949 we reported our experience with thiourea derivatives in the treatment of nine children with hyperthyroidism due to diffuse toxic goiter and were impressed by the remissions obtained in five of these treated successfully.1Their ages were 9, 11, 9, 5, and 13½ years and they were treated continuously for 13, 12, 7, 15, and 6 months, respectively. Subtotal thyroidectomy was performed on four of the nine patients, for the following reasons: (1) marked enlargement of the thyroid, although the patient was euthyroid after five months of treatment *; (2) refractoriness to the drug during treatment following a third relapse; (3) slow response to the drug in a child who had psychotic episodes and cardiac complications, and (4) poor cooperation from a badly disturbed child. Thus, only one case can be considered a drug failure. Because a great deal of controversy exists as to the advisability of prolonged treatment

CUSHING'S syndrome is rather rare in infants.* In 1949 Chute, Robinson, and Donohue collected from the literature 32 cases of Cushing's syndrome in children and added 1 case of their own. 1 Because of differences of opinion about the criteria of Cushing's syndrome, some cases have been recorded under other titles. For instance, in 1940 Marks, Thomas, and Warkany collected a series of cases of adrenocortical obesity in children, some of which apparently were examples of Cushing's syndrome. 8 Cushing's disease is the term that has been suggested for the cases in which the classical clinical features described by Cushing are associated with a basophilic adenoma of the pituitary. 6 The name Cushing's syndrome is applied in those cases where causes other than basophilic adenoma are found. It is now generally accepted that the syndrome is usually associated with an adrenal cortical tumor or hyperfunction of the adrenal cortex. 6
