Acute appendicitis (AA) is the most common abdominal surgical emergency. No specific studies have been found that evaluate impact of coronavirus 2 (SARS-Cov-2) pandemic on AA and its management. An analysis was made influence this new pathology clinical course AA.Retrospective observational study conducted patients operated for from January to April 2020. They were classified according time appendectomy, before declaration state alarm (Pre-COVID-19), after (Post-COVID-19) in Spain, one...

Background Intestinal transplantation (ITx) represents the only curative option for patients with irreversible intestinal failure. Nevertheless, its rejection rate surpasses that of other solid organ transplants due to heightened immunological load gut. Regulatory T-cells (Tregs) are key players in induction and maintenance peripheral tolerance, suggesting their potential involvement modulating host vs . graft responses after ITx. Thus, we investigated association Tregs allograft outcomes...
Aim of the study: Postoperative intra-abdominal abscess (PIAA) is a frequent and severe complication acute appendicitis (AA) with peritonitis. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) an inflammatory marker that has been related to development peritonitis; however, its diagnostic role in predicting PIAA not evaluated. This first study analyzes usefulness NLR as predictor children operated for AA. Material Methods: Retrospective observational AA our institution during 2017-2018. Patients aged...
In recent years, pain protocols for pectus excavatum (PE) have incorporated cryoanalgesia through thoracoscopic approach. Since 2019, ultrasound-guided percutaneous (PCr) has been applied at our institution, either on the same day as Nuss procedure or 48 hours before surgery. We carried out a preliminary retrospective review of patients with PE in whom PCr prior to surgery was performed institution between 2019 and 2021. Two groups were evaluated: (PCrSD) (PCr48). Despite PCr, treated...
Surgical intervention is usually a traumatic event that causes stress and anxiety in the pediatric patient family environment. To reduce harmful effects of presurgical anxiety, parental presence during induction anesthesia (PPIA) one more notable interventions used medical centers. However, data on this measure are difficult to evaluate often face resistance from healthcare staff.To analyze perception workers after implementation PPIA program.A survey was developed sent by email all staff...
We describe the unusual case of a female patient with history two mature teratomas non-correlated in terms location and occurrence. A 12-year-old girl presented at our consultation as result growing tumor hypogastric region, no further clinical signs. She had undergone surgery neonatally due to cystic sacrococcygeal teratoma, which was fully removed. No sequelae were noted additional treatment required over 10-year follow-up. Radiological examination showed large 20 × 12 18 cm mass extending...
Perineal groove is an infrequent midline malformation. It a humid, mucosal, non-keratinized located at the perineal midline, extending from vulvar fourchette to anterior anal border. rare and usually asymptomatic, it heals spontaneously in most cases. frequently mistaken for other malformations, which means correctly identifying essential avoid iatrogenesis.We present case of female newborn with asymptomatic lesion consistent anorectal Following assessment by Pediatric Surgery Department,...
The addition of ultrasound-guided percutaneous cryoanalgesia (PCr) for pain management after pectus excavatum (PE) surgery offers a new and advantageous approach. Our aim is to describe our experience with PCr applied on the same day, 24 hours, 48 hours prior PE surgery. Prospective pilot study in patients undergoing (2019-2022) was divided into three groups: day (PCrSD), before (PCr24), (PCr48). We application technique data obtained by comparing groups. present 42 (25 PCrSD, 11 PCr24, 6...
We report a severe case of compartment syndrome due to compressive burn dressing. An otherwise healthy 2-year-old girl presented at her local health center with superficial partial-thickness thermal on the dorsum mid phalanx second finger right hand. A dressing was applied solely affected finger. Forty-eight hours afterward, patient in emergency room pain After removal dressing, circular constrictive eschar observed base finger, secondary ischemia Emergent lateral escharotomies were...
Infantile hemangiomas with multi-organ involvement are rare, and presentation in the form of uncontrollable bleeding is exceptional.4-day-old newborn multiple hepatocutaneous a purplish vascular lesion third finger right hand. In week life, became ulcerated caused bleeding. Therefore, urgent amputation was required, histopathological result GLUT-1 positive infantile hemangioma, an architecture compatible arteriovenous malformation deep portion. Imaging tests revealed it high-flow lesion....
Background: Residual postoperative pneumoperitoneum (RPP) can be confused with complications. Our aim was to study RPP characteristics in pediatric patients. Materials and Methods: Prospective children noncomplicated appendicitis, from July December 2019, divided into open appendectomy (OA) or laparoscopic (LA). Abdominal ultrasounds were performed daily assess RPP. Demographic, surgical data, analyzed. Results: Forty-one patients (63% male) aged 9.8 ± 2.9 years included: 19 had OA 22 LA....
Postoperative rhabdomyolysis (RML) has been documented after several surgical procedures in adults. Musculoskeletal remodeling Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum (PE) could cause RML. We evaluated the incidence of RML children. This study was a prospective from 2018 to 2021. enrolled all otherwise healthy patients who underwent PE correction with only one bar. Studied variables included demographic and clinical data, duration surgery, complications, length hospitalization. The serial...
Introduction: After pediatric left lateral segment (LLS) liver transplantation for small children, primary abdominal wall closure may not be possible or recommended. Reduction of the graft, using a monosegment graft deferred are alternatives. We describe our results with sequential (SAC) polytetra-fluoroethylene mesh in LLS recipients. Method: Retrospective review patients who received and CAS between 2010 2021. The was placed fixed continuous polypropylene suture to on both sides incision....
