Abstract Background There is no consensus on the initial treatment modality for unilateral Wilms tumor (WT) in Egypt. This multicenter study investigates factors guiding decision-making between primary surgery and delayed resection this our clinical practice. A retrospective analysis was conducted all patients with unilateral, non-metastatic WT treated at four major Egyptian institutions from January 2019 to 2024. Clinical characteristics, management details, outcomes were reviewed. Timing...
Aims of the Study: To assess short-term clinical outcome novel Shehata technique laparoscopic traction—lengthening for abdominal testes in a single center over 12-month period (January–December 2014). An ethics approval study and appropriate consents were obtained all patients before inclusion our study. Materials Methods: A total 47 consecutive boys presented with impalpable ipsilateral hemiscrota, 3 them bilateral summing up to 50 U 12 months Those underwent preoperative ultrasound (US)...
Abstract Objectives Nationwide criteria regarding patients with sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) are still lacking in Egypt. We aimed to present a multicenter study the management and outcomes of this tumor evaluate our national treatment strategy. Methods A retrospective analysis including all SCT who were managed at four major Egyptian centers between 2013 2023. Clinical data, surgical approaches, short- long-term discussed. Results The included 95 (74 females). Antenatal diagnosis was...
During laparoscopy for impalpable testes (IT), if the vas and vessels are found exiting deep ring, many surgeons proceed to inguinal exploration as a routine, regardless of adequacy or presence absence processus vaginalis (PV). We tried find out whether this was necessary in cases with hypoplastic vessels.This retrospective study IT where during laparoscopy, deferens gonadal were seen passing through ring. Cases divided into four groups, according condition PV: present (whether patent...
Acute intrathoracic gastric volvulus occurs when the stomach undergoes organoaxial rotation in chest due presence of a diaphragmatic defect. Gastric associated with congenital hernia is extremely rare and can be explained as 2 4 ligaments supporting (gastrophrenic gastrosplenic) which are connected to left diaphragm may become elongated or absent. According current literature, only 27 pediatric cases have been reported so far. We describe an 8 years old boy who presented our emergency...
Abstract Background Wilms tumor is the commonest malignant renal neoplasm in children. Surgery plays a pivotal role management, and evidence-based guidelines for surgical resection have been established by major international groups. Any deviation from protocol considered as violation. The goal of this study was to evaluate outcomes patients with unilateral treated at developing country analyze violations (SV) their impact on prognosis. A retrospective review conducted 37 who were presented...
Abstract Background: Nephroblastoma, commonly known as Wilms' tumor (WT), is the most prevalent primary kidney in children aged 1 and peaks between ages of 3 4. Since lymph node involvement WT linked to a less favorable prognosis, thorough nodal examination should be performed. Aim: To evaluate outcome hilar sampling versus comprehensive dissection regarding pathological yield (LN) post-nephrectomy patients. Patients Methods: This prospective study involved 20 pediatric patients with who...
Different abdominal organs can herniate into the inguinal canal, including small bowel, colon, appendix, ovaries, and, less commonly, urinary bladder and fallopian tubes. Herniation of ureter within an hernia is a very rare occurrence. To best our knowledge, than 150 cases have been reported in literature, only 15 pediatric cases. A 3-month-old boy presented to clinic with left swelling. Ultrasound abdomen pelvis showed grade 4 hydronephrosis dilated tortuous passing through canal. Further...
Methods: An IRB approved retrospective chart review of patients aged 5 to 21 years who underwent operative treatment with initial subtotal colectomy (STC), followed by a total proctocolectomy IPAA +/-diversion for medically refractory IBD from January 2010 August 2018 (n = 25).Fisher's exact test was used statistical analysis.Results: The average age at the time 13.4 -3.4 years.Patients were predominately male (53.8%) and Caucasian (53.8%).Indication STC ulcerative colitis in 84.6% patients,...
Aim: Rectal prolapse in children is a common condition infancy and early childhood that usually responds to conservative measures. Surgery reserved only for resistant cases fail respond This study was designed evaluate the efficacy of 3-point fixation concept (retrorectal dissection, rectopexy presacral fascia sacral promontory sigmoidopexy onto anterior abdominal wall) treatment complete rectal using laparoscopy.
Background: Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication is the gold standard antireflux procedure in pediatric age group. Intrathoracic migration of fundic wrap a common cause failure, leading to recurrence gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms. Objectives: To investigate impact wrap-crural fixation and minimal esophageal dissection prevention transmigration after laparoscopic children. Methods: Prospective randomized study 46 patients with refractory GERD who underwent divided into two...
Congenital lumbar hernias are uncommonly seen in the pediatric age group, with only about 60 cases reported literature. It is usually accompanied by a multitude of congenital anomalies involving different organ systems body. For instance, it may involve ribs, spine, muscles, and kidneys. Herein, we report case hernia an 8-month-old boy who underwent operative repair using mesh uneventful outcome.
Congenital web of the gastrointestinal tract is a rare anomaly which may present at any site tract. In cases with an intact membrane, presenting symptoms take form complete intestinal obstruction while in other fenestrated it partial such as failure to thrive, volume depletion, or poor body-weight gain, representing chronic condition. It very for jejunal retention accidently ingested foreign body. this report, we document case 14-month boy button battery who was found have on surgical...

Abstract Background Transverse testicular ectopia (TTE) is a rare anomaly characterized by both testes descending through single inguinal canal. In this report, the diagnosis of TTE was discovered in event an incarcerated congenital hernia neonate. Case presentation We present case accompanied persistent Müllerian duct structures (PMDS) that had been incidentally during exploration 26-day-old boy who presented with on right side and left cryptochidism side. The pathogenesis, approach...
In spite of being one the most common surgical procedures performed in adults, laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is relatively uncommon pediatric age group. Most surgeons prefer to dissect cystic duct using a monopolar electrosurgical hook and occlude it with simple metal clips. Although safety ultrasonically-activated shears, e.g., harmonic scalpel for dissection gallbladder confirmed many studies, its efficacy closure artery adults still debatable. Furthermore, very few reports studied...
Prostatic utricle cysts result from incomplete regression of the Müllerian duct remnant or decreased androgenic stimulation urogenital sinus. Children usually present with urinary tract infections (UTIs), irritative symptoms and urine retention, although some cases are asymptomatic. These sometimes can cause a palpable abdominal mass, urethral discharge, terminal hematuria recurrent epididymitis. A high incidence such is seen in boys hypospadias, especially more proximal types.
Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) of the pancreas is an infrequent that known to have a low malignant potential and represents less than 3% all exocrine tumors. Herein, we report case SPN in 14-year-old girl who presented with long history dyspepsia epigastric pain. CT revealed sizeable well-defined cystic mass at porta hepatis/pancreatic head mesenteric region. On exploration, showed tumor pancreas, which was completely resected. The final diagnosis pancreas. We highlight its...

Although its diagnosis challenging, unrecognized SV life-threatening condition requiring early recognition to decrease morbidity and mortality.A 14-year-old male presented our emergency department massive abdominal distention. Plain erect X-ray showed colonic distention multiple fluid levels. Colonoscopy failed pass beyond 15 cm after entering dilated...
