Bilateral phrenic-nerve paralysis treated by thoracoscopic diaphragmatic plication in a neonatePediatric Surgery International - Tập 19 - Trang 79-81 - 2003
Masaki Shimizu
Traditionally, diaphragmatic plication (DP) is performed via a thoracotomy that includes incision of the lower intercostal muscles, which are involved in respiratory movement. This may adversely affect ventilation by causing deterioration of respiratory function and making ventilation less efficient. These problems do not occur with thoracoscopic DP (TDP), since the lower intercostal muscles are l...... hiện toàn bộ
A new method for removal of metallic-ferromagnetic foreign bodies from the tracheobronchial treePediatric Surgery International - Tập 12 - Trang 461-462 - 1997
J. Mayr, S. Dittrich, K. Triebl
Foreign-body (FB) aspirations account for a reasonable percentage of respiratory emergencies in young children. Whereas 67% of aspirated FBs are of organic origin, metallic-ferromagnetic FBs are observed less frequently. We report the use of a wire with a magnetic tip fitting into the working channel of a rigid bronchoscope for removal of ferromagnetic FBs from the tracheobronchial tree.
Factors affected by surgical technique when treating total colonic aganglionosis: laparoscopy-assisted versus open surgeryPediatric Surgery International - Tập 29 - Trang 349-352 - 2013
Go Miyano, Takanori Ochi, Geoffrey J. Lane, Tadaharu Okazaki, Atsuyuki Yamataka
We compared laparoscopy-assisted Duhamel (Lap-D) with open surgery (Duhamel or Soave = D/S) for treating total colonic aganglionosis (TCA) in children to establish what factors may affect outcome. Fourteen TCA cases treated between 1990 and 2010 were reviewed. Open D/S (O-D/S) through a vertical midline abdominal incision was routine from 1990 to 2005, whereupon Lap-D became routine. Lap-D involve...... hiện toàn bộ
Theraphy of neonatal chylothoraxPediatric Surgery International - Tập 5 - Trang 216-217 - 1990
S. Kellnar, A. Trammer
A case of neonatal chylothorax following closure of a left-sided diaphragmatic defect and our therapeutic approach to this entity are presented. Conservative therapy with total parenteral nutrition and drainage is sufficient in most cases. Fluid and protein losses should be balanced exactly; immunoglobulin losses are compensated by early substitution. Early surgical revision, which carries an espe...... hiện toàn bộ
NF-κB related abnormal hyper-expression of iNOS and NO correlates with the inflammation procedure in biliary atresia liversPediatric Surgery International - - 2010
Lei Huang, Xin-Min Si, Jie-Xiong Feng
To study the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and its related regulators in biliary atresia (BA) livers and exlpore their relationships with the inflammation pathway in BA livers. The iNOS expression in livers of 38 cases of BA children, 15 cases of neonatal cholestasis (NC) children, and 18 cases of normal control were, respectively, examined and total nitric oxide (NO) metabo...... hiện toàn bộ

To determine the features which predict torsion and the pre-operative indicators of malignancy in cases of ovarian torsion in ovarian tumors (OTs) in children. The medical records of 35 pediatric patients who underwent surgery for OT, except for neonate cases, from 1997 to 2018 at our institution were reviewed retrospectively. The pathological diagnosis was mature teratoma in 17, immature teratoma...... hiện toàn bộ
