Abstract Background Despite the presence of ganglion cells in rectum, some patients have symptoms similar to those Hirschsprung's disease. A consensus has yet be established regarding terminology for these diseases. We defined this group diseases as “allied disorders disease” and compiled guidelines facilitate accurate clinician diagnosis provide appropriate treatment strategies each Methods These were developed using methodologies Medical Information Network Distribution System ( MINDS )....
We evaluated the outcomes of liver transplantation (LT) in pediatric and adult patients with biliary atresia (BA). focused on bowel perforation after LT (BPLT) as most common surgical complication analyzed its risk factors.This was a retrospective analysis 70 BA who underwent LT. The were divided into three groups according to timing LT: within first year age (Group A), between 1 12 years B), C). clinical presentations BPLT compared. variables without assess factors.The did not affect...
Determining the cause of bowel obstruction without a history laparotomy (BO HL) is difficult and can result in delay treatment development potentially life-threatening situation. We herein investigated clinical characteristics pediatric patients who underwent due to BO HL.All surgical aged <16 age were diagnosed with HL between January 2004 September 2014 included. Etiology BO, intraoperative findings postoperative outcome retrospectively.Seventy this period. In these 70 patients,...
Aim: We evaluated a series of late-presenting congenital diaphragmatic hernia (Late-CDH) cases and assessed the reliability risks laparoscopic thoracoscopic approaches for Late-CDH at single institution. Materials Methods: From 2005 to 2017, we experienced totally 11 patients with who received endoscopic repairs. retrospectively surveyed approach, defect size, operating time, postoperative outcomes, including recurrence. Results: Eleven (Bochdalek, n = 10; Morgagni, 1) underwent total 14...
Background: Thiamine blood concentrations of pediatric patients receiving peripheral parenteral nutrition change during the postoperative period. In addition, need to administer thiamine after surgery has not yet been fully studied in children nutrition. Objective: The objective this prospective study is clarify whether require administration while abdominal surgery. Patients: Fifteen were divided into 2 groups; 1 group received without (n = 7), whereas other with 8). both groups, measured...
Duodenal atresia (DA) is a well-known neonatal intestinal disease. Even after surgery, the proximal segment can continue to be severely dilated with hypoperistalsis, resulting in dysmotility problems later life. No data have been published regarding morphologic differences between and distal regions of obstructed sites intramural components DA.Operative duodenal samples (N = 12) from cases DA (age 1-3 days) were used. Age-matched controls 2) All specimens immunohistochemically stained...
Transient hyperphosphatasemia (TH), the incidence of which in healthy children is 1.5-2.8%, associated with a temporary elevation serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) without any other liver function test (LFT) abnormalities. Fast α2 band, detected on agarose gel electrophoresis, known to be highly sensitive phenomenon TH. The aim this study was elucidate characteristics TH after transplantation (LT).Five patients (6.0%) out 83 who underwent LT between October 1996 and 2014, were included study....
The diagnosis of biliary atresia (BA) is still challenging. aim this study was to analyze the clinical features and parameters that contribute a BA.From January 2000 December 2013, 37 patients who underwent operative cholangiography were evaluated retrospectively. divided into two groups: BA group, group with other cholestatic diseases (non-BA group). demographic data preoperative liver function test results analyzed.Of patients, 29 confirmed have BA. Age at operation not significantly...
BACKGROUND Liver cirrhosis is frequently accompanied by insufficient portal vein inflow (IPVF) with large portosystemic shunts. However, pediatric cases often manifested IPVF without any apparent major Although a very critical issue, the intraoperative assessment has not been well established. In this study, we reviewed approach and outcome of at our department. MATERIAL AND METHODS Eighty-three living donor liver transplantations (LDLT) were performed from 1996 to 2014. The occurred in 5...
Humans cannot synthesize nine of the twenty amino acids that constitute proteins, known as essential acids. It has been traditionally considered this inability arose because humans could obtain these in sufficient quantities through their diet. However, recent advances life sciences have shown all eukaryotic organisms with ability to ingest external protein resources uniformly lost almost identical acids, including those belonging branches evolutionary tree entirely different from humans,...
Abstract Background A congenital prepubic sinus (CPS) is a rare anomaly in which duct remnant extends from the skin opening near pubic symphysis to various parts and lesions are mostly located preperitoneal space. The totally extraperitoneal (TEP) approach an operational method that provides good field of view for We report CPS through complete resection was achieved by TEP approach. minimally invasive satisfactory cosmetic outcome. Case presentation herein case 13-year-old boy with fistula...
