Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) expanded in vitro have been proposed as a potential therapy for congenital or acquired skin defects pediatrics. The aim of this pre-clinical study was to investigate the effects intradermal injections MSC experimental cutaneous wound repair comparing allogeneic and autologous adipose stem (ASCs) bone marrow-mesenchymal (BM-MSCs).Mesenchymal were from BM tissues young female New Zealand rabbits. MSCs characterized plastic adhesion, surface markers,...
Aim: We evaluated the effects of intradermal injection extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from adipose stem cells (ASC-EVs) and bone marrow (BM-EVs) in an experimental cutaneous wound repair model. Methods: Mesenchymal (MSCs) were vitro expanded (ASC) or BM tissues (BM-MSC) rabbits. EVs separated supernatants confluent ASC BM-MSCs. Two skin wounds induced each animal treated with MSC EV injections. Histological examination was performed postinoculation. Results: EV-treated exhibited a...
Prostatic utricle is a rare malformation arising from incomplete regression of the Müllerian ducts. Diagnosis easily made but management may be challenging. The minimally invasive approach has so far been considered gold standard for surgical treatment. Many endoscopic and procedures have described removal, to date only few cases robot-assisted mentioned in literature there are no reports redos.We report case giant prostatic cyst successfully treated with robotic-assisted surgery two years...
The development of laparoscopic surgery has extended its uses to include adrenalectomy in children and adults. Because conventional requires a large incision, minimally invasive offers less aggressive solution some selected cases. Twenty-nine adrenal masses 26 were treated using between 1994 2004 (12 laparoscopically, the remaining 17 with open surgery). Minimally procedures limited removal small localized tumors biopsies. Although this approach must be operations on lesions presumed benign,...
Aim: To report the feasibility and safety of a robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP) in patients weighing <10 kg. Materials Methods: Three between 5 8 kg who were affected by severe congenital ureteropelvic junction obstruction, including child with solitary kidney, subjected to RALP. trocars placed; sutures remodeling performed interrupted stitches. A double J stent was inserted through 2-mm transparietal angiocatheter protect pyelic suture. Results: The procedures all completed...
Purpose: The study was designed to assess the utility and controversies surrounding usage of 5-mm instruments in paediatric robotic surgery. Adequate, delicate for surgery very narrow spaces are still lacking. Material methods: Thirty children underwent elective abdominal Working sites, assembly operative time, hospital stay, advantages, complications shortcomings reported. Results: Interventions were performed following anatomical sites: 11 upper abdominal, nine pelvic, ten renal...
Rhabdomyosarcoma is a soft tissue malignant tumor affecting 1% of children from 0 to 14 years. Preoperative imaging may not always be diagnostic for hepatobiliary rhabdomyosarcoma and differential diagnosis with choledochal cyst (CC) could difficult. We report case 2-years-old girl strange CC pattern presentation. A grapelike lesion involving the biliary ducts was easily completely resected by robotic assisted surgery. Since no previous reports were available about oncologic safety approach,...
Most hospital protocols-including those of our own institute-require the use radiography to validate tip position in every central vascular access device placement. This study evaluated whether unnecessary ionizing radiation exposure could be spared pediatric population when intracavitary electrocardiography is used guide catheter placement.Retrospective electrocardiography-guided placements surgery department between 2013 and 2018. We operating time, success positioning catheter, accuracy...
Prepubertal primary testicular tumors account for ∼1% of all pediatric solid tumors. We report a new case prenatal diagnosis juvenile-type granulosa cell tumor (JGCT). A fetal ultrasound performed at the 38th week gestation suspected nonvertex presentation identified left multilocular septated cystic mass, suggestive JGCT. At birth, painless scrotal mass was detected. Ultrasound re-evaluation excluded torsion testis. Tumor markers and abdominal were normal age. Inguinal exploration revealed...
Although mild-to-moderate intellectual disability is usually considered part of WAGR syndrome (Wilms' tumour (WT), Aniridia, Genital abnormalities, and metal Retardation, due to 11p13 deletion) the neuropsychological profile little reported in literature. We report about a 12-year-old boy presenting with (WT, right complete aniridia, bilateral cryptorchidism, interstitial deletion involving band 11p13) but no mental retardation. An in-depth clinical evaluation revealed behavioural or social...
Abstract Congenital internal jugular phlebectasia (CIJP) is a rare condition characterized by congenital dilatation of the vein without tortuosity that becomes more evident during straining as lateral neck mass. CIJP often remains undiagnosed from few months to several years after onset swelling. It frequently asymptomatic although symptomatic cases have been occasionally reported. We present case healthy 7-year-old boy with mass, triggered Valsalva maneuver. Neck ultrasound (US) showed...
Disorders of sexual differentiation (DSD) with karyotype 46,XY include gonadal developmental differences such as complete dysgenesis, partial testicular regression and ovotesticular disorder, in androgen synthesis or action, deficiency, action deficits, LH receptor AMH other conditions severe hypospadias, cloaca estrophy, etc. Methods: A 17 years-old girl came to our attention for hirsutism, clitoral hypertrophy, primary amenorrhea, bilateral mammary hypoplasia. According clinical features...
