Del Castillo syndrome (Sertoli cell syndrome) is a rare disease. Patients do not differ from healthy men in sexual and physical development. Karyotype 46,XY.
Dehydration is a significant loss of water and usually electrolytes. Symptoms and signs include thirst, lethargy, dry mucous membranes, decreased urine output, and, as the degree of dehydration progresses, tachycardia, hypotension, and shock. Diagnosis is based on history and physical examination. Treatment is with oral or intravenous fluid and electrolyte replacement.

Dehydration is a decrease in the total water content when its loss exceeds its intake and formation, or when its sharp redistribution occurs.

Toxicosis with exicosis in young children (intestinal toxicosis) is a syndrome complex characterized by dehydration, damage to the central nervous system and hemodynamic disturbances. Toxicosis with exicosis (TE) is the most common type of toxicosis.
Classic DiGeorge syndrome has been described in patients with a characteristic phenotype including cardiac and facial malformations, endocrinopathy, and thymic hypoplasia. The syndrome may also be associated with other developmental anomalies.
Neomycin selectively acts on the hair cells of the cochlea and often causes more frequent and profound hearing loss than streptomycin, up to and including complete deafness.
Deformations of the outer ear include changes in the shape and size of the auricle and external auditory canal, which can be either congenital or acquired as a result of trauma or inflammatory-destructive diseases.
Deforming nasal polyposis is a particular form of nasal polyposis, which occurs mainly in young people, also called Vaquez syndrome.

Affecting cartilage tissue degenerative-dystrophic joint disease can affect the joints of the foot, of which there are more than three dozen.

In heterozygotes, the activity of glucose phosphate isomerase in erythrocytes is 40-60% of the norm, the disease is asymptomatic. In homozygotes, the enzyme activity is 14-30% of the norm, the disease occurs as hemolytic anemia. The first manifestations of the disease can be observed already in the neonatal period - pronounced jaundice, anemia, splenomegaly are noted.
Defects leading to disruption of the interferon-gamma (INF-y) and interleukin-12 (11-12)-dependent pathway are characterized by increased sensitivity to mycobacterial and some other infections (Salmonella, viruses).
Defects of urea cycle enzymes are characterized by hyperammonemia under conditions of catabolism or protein loading. Primary urea cycle disorders include carbamoyl phosphate synthetase (CPS) deficiency, ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency, arginine succinate synthetase deficiency (citrullinemia), argininosuccinate lyase deficiency (argininosuccinic aciduria), and arginase deficiency (argininemia).
Adhesion between leukocytes and endothelium, other leukocytes and bacteria is necessary for the performance of the main phagocytic functions - movement to the site of infection, communication between cells, formation of an inflammatory reaction. The main adhesion molecules include selectins and integrins. Defects in the adhesion molecules themselves or proteins involved in the transmission of a signal from adhesion molecules lead to pronounced defects in the anti-infection response of phagocytes.
Complement system defects are the rarest type of primary immunodeficiency states (1-3%). Hereditary defects of almost all complement components have been described. All genes (except the properdin gene) are located on autosomal chromosomes. The most common deficiency is the C2 component. Complement system defects vary in their clinical manifestations.
Defects and deformations of the skin of the face and neck can be congenital or acquired (as a result of injuries, operations and various diseases: leishmaniasis, lupus erythematosus, syphilis, etc.).
Defects of the palate can occur as a result of gunshot and non-gunshot injuries, inflammatory processes, as well as as a result of surgical removal of a tumor of the palate, previously unsuccessful uranostaphyloplasty, etc.
Acquired defects and deformations of the nose can occur as a result of trauma, inflammatory diseases (furunculosis, lupus) and tumor removal.
Defects of the alveolar process with cicatricial deformation of the mucous membrane of the vestibule of the mouth can occur as a result of gunshot wounds, oncological operations and inflammatory processes.
Defects of the upper lip due to non-union of its fragments are often accompanied by deformations that cannot always be eliminated during cheiloplasty; they can be revealed immediately after the operation or after some time.
Most often, total and subtotal defects of the eyebrows and eyelids occur as a result of traumatic injuries (scalping), facial burns, radiation therapy, and skin diseases.
