Perinatal asphyxia remains one of the most devastating neurologic processes. There is experimental and clinical evidence that cerebral cooling may suppress biochemical cascades leading to delayed damage.To determine if hypothermia started soon after delivery reduces damage in term infants.Retrospective chart analysis with historical controls. Ten asphyxiated newborns treated between October 1998 1999 were compared 11 admitted from September 1997 1998. Characteristics at birth infants two...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the Masaoka-Koga and tumor node metastases (TNM) staging system in thymic epithelial tumors (TET) considering possible improvements.We reviewed data 379 patients who underwent surgical resection for TET from 1 January 1985 2018, collecting classifying pathological report according TMN system. number involved organs also considered as a prognostic factor integrated two systems verify its impact.Considering system, 5- 10-year overall survival (5-10YOS)...
The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has affected Italy since the beginning of 2020. Endotracheal intubation, prolonged mechanical ventilation, and tracheostomy are frequently required in patients with severe COVID-19. Tracheal stenosis is a potentially condition that can occur as complication after intubation. aim this study was to evaluate utility safety endoscopic surgical techniques treatment tracheal related COVID-19.Between June 2020 May 2022,...
The objective of this study was to construct reference ranges the neonatal cerebellar vermis height with respect gestational age at birth.This observational assessed 434 neonates born 25-42 weeks' gestation. were singleton and appropriate in size for age, did not exhibit any abnormalities or disease. Gestational based on date last menstrual period confirmed by ultrasound examination performed within 12(th) week pregnancy. Sonographic measurements mid-sagittal plane 24 h birth same...
Objective: To investigate the effect of a 2 minutes-delayed cord clamp (DCC) versus early (ECC) on neonate haemoglobin concentration 24 hours and 1 month after birth, assess safety DCC concerning risk HIV infection.Design: Sixty-four mother-infant peers were enrolled. All mothers stable ARV therapy. Viral load, CD4+ count blood (Hb) concentrations before delivery collected from all their infants.Methods: patients enrolled at Department Paediatrics, AO FBF Sacco Hospital in Milan, followed...
Multiportal thoracoscopic approach is already a well standardized procedure for minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE); conversely very few reports have been published about uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) technique till now. We present our preliminary experience with VATS esophagectomy, evaluating short-term outcomes as perioperative mortality, complications, oncological radicality, postoperative pain and cosmetic results.From December 2016 to November 2017, the...
We report a case of neonatal withdrawal syndrome after in utero exposure to paroxetine 20 mg/day. The infant’s symptoms, such as poor adaptation, respiratory distress, decerebrate posturing, irritability and tremors, commenced soon birth persisted for 5 days. All neonates exposed antidepressants, particularly serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), during the last trimester should be followed-up closely adverse symptoms.
Mesenteric vasculitis secondary to polyarteritis nodosa represents an atypical but potentially life-threatening cause of bowel ischemia and acute abdomen. The patient presented with severe abdominal pain recent onset, pitting edema the legs, renal failure wall thickening suggestive mesenteric on CT scan. Early laparoscopy allowed rule out proximal necrosis resection was avoided. successfully managed corticosteroid therapy repeated hemodialysis sessions.
A 34-week infant born from a mother with history of drug abuse developed neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) in the first hours life. Urine screening was positive for cocaine and heroin. The acute kidney injury bilateral hydronephrosis while receiving oral morphine control NAS. Cessation therapy urinary catheterization resulted rapid complete resolution symptoms. Our patient homozygous C3435T polymorphism ABCB1 gene, previously associated impaired P-glycoprotein activity. We hypothesize that...
Abstract: Bronchogenic cysts (BCs) are the most common benign cystic lesions in mediastinum, 15–25% of cases originating from pulmonary parenchyma. It is often found incidentally as it mostly asymptomatic until its growth size and compression surrounding structures, causing tachycardia, dysphagia, dyspnea, cough chest pain or complication (with symptoms such fever, dyspnea sputum production if cyst communicates with a bronchus). In this paper we present case 68-year-old female patient...
: Esophageal perforations and postoperative leaks are challenging life-threatening conditions, with a not well-defined management, yet. Perforation is defined as full-thickness tear in the esophageal wall due to trauma on lumen or sudden increase of endoluminal pressure, like spontaneous perforations. The most frequent causes are: iatrogenic injuries, perforations, foreign body caustic ingestion, trauma, tumors etc. onset symptoms varies depending location perforation (cervical,...
: Stricture of the esophagus is most frequent late sequelae ingestion caustic agents. It disabling, lead to chronic pain and malnutrition. Endoscopic dilatation still remains first-line management but cannot be effective in all patients. When surgery indicated, only selected patients can submitted an esophago-gastroplasty. Colon interposition for esophageal replacement more frequently performed treatment burns, many questions remain about colonic tract used (right or left), route...
Esophageal diverticulum is a rare disease caused by impaired esophageal motility. It may present with disorders like pain, heartburn, dysphagia, episodes of food regurgitation and halitosis, but often the patients are asymptomatic. Diagnosis based on esophagogram barite meal, gastroscopy manometry. The diverticula can be classified according to site onset in esophagus: distal third (epiphrenic, 20%), mediothoracic or mediastinal (10%) proximal (Zenker diverticula, 70%). Traditionally,...
Objectives: to evaluate whether hypothermia can be considered an effective tool for neuroprotection in neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopaty.
