Comparison in the incidence of anorectal malformations between a first- and third-world referral center
Tập 31 - Trang 759-764 - 2015
Andre P. Theron, Giulia Brisighelli, Anne E. Theron, Ernesto Leva, Alp Numanoglu
Aim of study was to evaluate the differences in incidence and presentation of anorectal malformations (ARMs) between selected Pediatric Surgery Divisions in the Republic of South Africa (ZAR) and Italy. A retrospective cohort study involved analysis of clinical records of patients with ARM born between 2005 and 2012. Type of ARM, maternal age, birth weight, gestational age, presence of associated anomalies and delayed diagnosis were analyzed. 335 patients were included in this study. Of note, statistically significant differences between the African and European patient groups were observed in a male predominance in the ZAR patient population. In addition, female recto-perineal fistulas were diagnosed in significantly more Italian patients than in ZAR. Furthermore, a more advanced maternal age and a lower gestational age was noted in the European cohort with a minimal delay in initial diagnosis as opposed to the African counterpart. Both centers reported recto-perineal fistula as the most common malformation in male patients. With the exception of perineal fistulas in females, the incidence of specific subtypes of ARMs was similar in the two groups. This may be of importance when extrapolating European study conclusion to the South African setting.

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of prenatal diagnosis at different gestational times on the clinical features of patients with choledochal cysts (CDCs). Medical records of patients with prenatally diagnosed CDCs admitted to our hospital (April 2013–April 2018) were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical characteristics and pathological CDC features were analyzed. Two hundred eighteen cases were included. Patients were divided into two groups. Group 1 and group 2 had a prenatal diagnosis at ≤ 27 weeks of gestation (second trimester of gestation, n = 157) and > 27 weeks (third trimester of gestation, n = 61), respectively. The incidence of jaundice and the TBIL, IBIL and GGT levels were higher in Group 1 (P = 0.021, P = 0.029, P = 0.042, P = 0.007, respectively). The maximum cyst diameter at the time of surgery was larger in Group 1 (P = 0.015). An association study showed that the time of prenatal diagnosis was negatively correlated with the maximum cyst diameter both postnatally (r = − 0.223, P = 0.001) and at the time of surgery (r = − 0.268, P < 0.001). Unlike patients diagnosed at a late prenatal age, patients diagnosed at an early prenatal age tend to present clinical symptoms (jaundice, manifested as high indirect bilirubin), hepatic function damage, and large cysts at the time of surgery.
A case of unexpected regeneration of small intestinal mucosal necrosis
Tập 28 - Trang 67-70 - 2011
Dong Wook Kim, Youn Joon Park
If full-thickness mucosa, including the mucosal crypt, has been almost denuded, mucosa cannot regenerate as has been shown by animal models. The authors experienced an unusual mucosal regeneration exceed denuded bowel that occur in midgut volvulus of duration 2 days in a 6-day-old infant. Santulli’s jejunostomy was performed using seriously denuded small bowel to prevent short bowel syndrome, despite the risks of leakage or stricture. Subsequently, stomal mucosa was fully regenerated when grossly identified 19 days after the second operation without any surgical complications.

Vaginal foreign bodies in children: a single-center retrospective 10-year analysis
- 2022
Wei Ma, Yi-Fan Sun, Jun-Hong Liu, Da-Wei He, Tao Lin, Guang-Hui Wei
To evaluate the clinical features and outcome in girls with a vaginal foreign body. The clinical data of 97 girls with a vaginal foreign body were collected between 2010 and 2020. The descriptive analysis was used to summarize the clinical characteristics. The patients were aged between 1.5 and 14.8 years, and the age of peak incidence was shown to be 3–10 years, which accounted for 88% of the cases. Blood-stained vaginal discharge or vaginal bleeding was the most common symptom (48%). The most common foreign bodies were small hard objects (57%), followed by bits of cloth or toilet tissue (22%). The patient whose foreign object was a disk battery had the most severe symptoms. When an injury of the vaginal mucosal was suspected, antibiotics were used to prevent infection, with full recovery of all patients without any additional treatment after removal of the foreign object. If there is no damage to the vaginal mucosa, no additional treatment is needed after the foreign body is removed. When a vaginal foreign body is suspected to be a battery, emergency surgery is needed to prevent further damage.
Fibroepithelial polyp of the ureter in childhood
Tập 6 - Trang 378-379 - 1991

We report a case of fibroepithelial polyp of the ureter, a benign mesodermal tumour, that is rare, especially in the paediatric age group. The success of conservative management with renal preservation for this benign condition is emphasised.

Postoperative period after abdominal solid tumor surgery is critical regarding complications. This study aimed to detect incidence and treatment of complications. Single center retrospective study including years 2010–2019 for early postoperative complications were documented and graded according to Clavian–Dindo classification. The overall complication rate was 10% and they were chylous leak (n = 8, 2%), collection in surgical field (n = 8, 2%), acute renal failure (n = 7, 1.7%), hemorrhage (n = 5, 1.3%), intestinal obstruction (n = 4, 1%), surgical site infection (n = 3, 0.7%), thromboembolism (n = 3, 0.7%) and peripheric neuronal event (n = 2, 0.5%). Distribution of complications according to Clavian–Dindo classification was as follows: 2 grade I, 23 grade II, 9 grade IIIb, 5 grade IVa and 1 grade V. While age and percentage of benign or malignant disease were not different in groups with or without complications (p = 0.11, p = 0.24), males had more complications than female patients (p = 0.008). Having more than one surgery aiming tumor resection was associated with increased postoperative complications (p = 0.002). Incidence of complications were highest after extragonadal germ cell tumor (35%) and hepatic tumors (29%). Postoperative complications of abdominal tumor surgery are diverse in children. They are related with prolonged hospital stay and need for medical or surgical interventions. Number of surgeries, organ of origin and tumor type have an influence on risk of complications.
