A prospective study to compare survival with own liver in laparoscopic versus conventional Kasai portoenterostomy patients biliary atresia.Available studies on focus short-term results, include small numbers of and have design limitations.A consecutive series underwent procedure from 2006 2007. Conventionally operated control consisted a infants atresia August 2003 2006. All data were ascertained prospectively using the European Biliary Atresia Registry/EBAR registration forms. Primary...
We assessed the feasibility of laparoscopic transabdominal dismembered pyeloplasty in 46 infants and children with regard to patient age.A total consecutive (31 male 15 female) underwent using a 3 4-trocar technique. All patients had confirmed unilateral deterioration renal function on isotope renography. The were divided into age groups--1 12 months (group 1, 14 patients), 1 7 years 2, patients) 18 3, 17 patients). Followup included clinical ultrasound assessment, renography at...
Since the first description in 1998, minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum has gained increasing acceptance. The aim this survey is to report on experiences eight European centres with technique.
(1) Background: Acute cholangitis during the first year after Kasai hepatoportoenterostomy (HPE) has a negative impact on patient and native liver survival. There are no consistent guidelines for definition, treatment, prophylaxis of HPE. The aim this study was to develop allow expeditious management standardization in reporting. (2) Methods: Delphi method, an extensive literature review, iterative rounds surveys, expert panel discussions were used establish (3) Results: Eight elements...
Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) usually presents with pruritus, jaundice, hepatomegaly, and growth failure. A group of PFIC is recognized by marked elevation total serum bile acids, decreased apolipoprotein A-1, high-density lipoprotein, but normal gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase cholesterol. Although medical therapy generally fails, partial external biliary diversion (DIV) has been used promising results for cholestasis. However, little reported its effect on linear...
Biliary atresia (BA) is the leading indication for liver transplantation (LTx) during childhood. Predictive markers progression are lacking. We investigated correlation between quantified fibrosis of at time Kasai hepatic portoenterostomy (KPE) and clinical course. Liver tissue was obtained KPE in 53 children stained with Picrosirius red. The mean volume per number periportal fields (Vfib) Ishak score were calculated. Vfib 3.9%. Transplant-free survival significantly higher those patients <...
OBJECTIVE Postoperative adjuvant steroid treatment is reported to improve jaundice-free survival in biliary atresia (BA) patients and reduce the need for early liver transplantation. However, evidence of all retrospective studies very limited, although high-dose corticosteroids were favored. The aim this dosage finding study was test most promising corticosteroid protocol a smaller but representative series, order optimize settings upcoming prospective long-term multicenter studies. METHODS...
Abstract Background Allergic rhinoconjunctivitis is a public health problem. Allergen Immunotherapy an effective and safe treatment, that modifies the natural course of allergic disease induces long‐term tolerance. Objective To correlate basophil antibody biomarkers subcutaneous immunotherapy to clinical outcomes cellular changes in target tissue. Methods Adults suffering from due grass pollen allergy were randomized receive (n = 18) or open control group 6). Patients reported daily symptom...
