Summary We present the case of a 3 day old term neonate who experienced cardiopulmonary arrest during creation pneumoperitoneum for laparoscopic repair duodenal atresia. The was thought likely to have occurred as result gas embolism. discuss features neonatal circulation which may predispose neonates embolic phenomena procedures, and potential benefit priming insufflation apparatus with carbon dioxide. possibility embolism should be considered when contemplating surgery in this patient group.
Standardized post-operative protocols reduce variation and enhance efficiency in patient care. Patients may benefit from these initiatives by improved quality of This matched case-control study investigates the effect a multidisciplinary criteria-led discharge protocol for uncomplicated appendicitis children.Key components included limiting antibiotics to two intravenous doses, avoidance opioid analgesia, prompt resumption diet, active encouragement early ambulation nursing staff autonomy...
This study aimed to examine the accuracy with which multiple natural language processing artificial intelligence models could predict discharge and readmissions after general surgery.
The CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene is a tightly regulated and differentially expressed transcript in many mucosal epithelial cell types. It appears that DNA sequence variations alone do not explain CFTR-related gastrointestinal disease patterns epigenetic modifiers influence expression. Our aim was to characterize the native chromatin environment cultured cells for intestinal expression by determining relationship between histone acetylation occupation of...
The role of high-resolution esophageal impedance manometry (HRIM) for establishing risk dysphagia after anti-reflux surgery is unclear. We conducted a prospective study children with primary gastroesophageal reflux (GER) disease, whom symptoms were determined pre-operatively and then post-operatively we examined features that may predict post-operative dysphagia.Thirteen (aged 6.8-15.5 years) undergoing work-up prior to 360o Nissen fundoplication included in the study. A score assessed at...
Mucormycosis is a rare angioinvasive fungal infection, more commonly seen in immunosuppressed patients, with reported mortality rates of 95% disseminated disease. We present case report patient T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia who developed infection mucormycosis (involving the pancreas, left occipital lobe, right lower lobe lung, appendix and kidney) after having completed induction consolidation chemotherapy. Growth Lichtheimia corymbifera was initially isolated following pleural tap...
Recent follow-up studies have demonstrated significant improvement in overall survival as well with native liver following geographic centralization of services to three centres the UK. However, this model has not been replicated countries relatively low population density such Australia and Canada.Retrospective evaluation all patients born biliary atresia (BA) South from 1989 2010 was performed. Thirty-one BA were discovered. Two excluded because initial Kasai procedure (KP) performed...
To compare the incidence of complications with a primary gastrostomy versus concurrent fundoplication and evaluating impact method tube placement. Neurologically impaired children were compared neurologically normal children. Two low profile devices for longevity.Ninety-eight patients (58 boys, mean age 4.66 years) 107 gastrostomies inserted between April 2004 May 2008 included in this retrospective, single institution audit. Minimum follow-up period was 1 year. Specific reviewed site...
Trichobezoars are concentrations of indigestible hair or hair-like fibres within the proximal intestinal tract. In children, delayed presentation with large bezoar masses is not unusual as formation an indolent process that takes many months years before becoming symptomatic. Surgical management challenging and becomes inevitable once a trichobezoar more established. The standard approach involves sizeable transverse midline laparotomy. We describe less invasive technique for extraction...
<ns4:p>We report a baby with an unusual true umbilical cord cyst detected at 12 weeks gestation which as the pregnancy progressed became increasingly difficult to distinguish from pseudocyst of cord. Concern possibility compression/cord accident led elective caesarean section being performed 35+ week’s delivery healthy female infant weighing 2170g. At birth ruptured and resultant thickened elongated was clamped accordingly. After clamp fell off 5 days post stump left behind stream urine...
