Precision of cleft lip and/or palate antenatal diagnosis plays a significant role in counselling, neonatal care, surgical strategies and psychological support the family. This study aims to measure accuracy our institution detection rate on routine morphologic ultrasonography. In this retrospective observational study, we compared postnatal 233 patients followed unit. We classified according Kernahan Stark’s classification system: Group 1: facial including labial labio-maxillary clefts; 2:...
Progenitor Biological Bandages (PBB) have been continuously applied clinically in the Lausanne Burn Center for over two decades. Vast translational experience and hindsight gathered, specifically cutaneous healing promotion of donor-site grafts second-degree pediatric burns. PBBs constitute combined Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products, containing viable cultured allogeneic fetal dermal progenitor fibroblasts. Such constructs may partly favor repair regeneration functional tissues by...
Lymphatic malformations (LMs) are classified as macrocystic, microcystic or mixed. Treatment depends on their characteristics: surgery, sclerotherapy, both combined, systemic treatment observation. This study aims to analyze the surgical and interventional management of LMs in children over last two decades our university hospital.Management born with between 2000 2019 was reviewed. Parameters collected were: malformation characteristics, type treatment, symptoms, imaging, timing diagnosis...
Sebaceous nevus is a congenital malformation of the skin that usually occurs on scalp or face. Syndromic forms do rarely exist with associated cerebral and ocular malformations. The lesions are pale at birth become irregular by puberty. In adult patient, tumors (usually benign) develop from sebaceous nevus. Their surgical excision during childhood can give better result in terms definitive scar.The aim this study to analyze our cases syndromic hamartoma, perform review existing literature,...
Giant omphalocele (GO) management is controversial and not easy. Conservative at birth delayed surgical closure usually mandatory. Postponed surgery may be challenging carry the risk of intensive care treatment. We report on five children who were treated in our department for GO between 2000 2010. Initially, patients managed conservatively West Africa. Delayed ventral hernia was performed Switzerland after patient transfer through a nongovernmental organization. Fascial median age 23...
Background: This study reviews the surgical and functional outcomes of children diagnosed with a bilateral cleft lip palate treated by same team following specific protocols 18 years after surgery during follow-up. Methods: Based on single-center retrospective design, demographic data were gathered authors from international institutions. Most quantitative in nature, descriptive statistical non-parametric tests employed for analysis. All born 1982 to 2002 considered. Children affected...
The psychological benefits of successful surgery for prominent ears have been emphasised. However, there are few comprehensive reports in the literature on incidence complications. aim this retrospective study is to present postoperative outcome and possible recurrence after otoplasty a University Hospital Center. A total 705 patients were followed otoplasty. We carried out review file that included all children who had treated following same surgical technique from January 01, 1993 December...
BACKGROUND: Among vascular anomalies, congenital venous malformations (VMs) are the most common lesions. Treatment of VMs is sometimes difficult or cumbersome, depending on their size and tissue involvement. Surgery may lead to invasive mutilating excisions, often allowing only partial removal, with an increased risk recurrence. Sclerotherapy a mainstream technique, resulting in endothelium destruction, fibrosis subsequent shrinkage lesion, also However, this technique not be efficient cases...
Head and neck cystic teratomas are rare benign congenital tumors. At this location the prognosis is often favorable provided correct diagnosis made. We describe here case of a male neonate with very large extracranial mass, diagnosed antenatally as macrocystic lymphangioma. The patient underwent early surgery complete excision. histological was consistent mature teratoma. teratoma should be suspected in head mass. Radiological images interpretation must rigorous to avoid management errors.
Pigmented epithelioid melanocytoma (PEM), a heavily pigmented and highly uncommon melanocytic lesion, is extremely rare. It comes under several forms names. We report the case of three-year-old boy born with an isolated right lumbopelvic femoral giant PEM. The was unable to walk due size shape lesion. He underwent two stages intra lesional resections, one in Benin second Switzerland. first surgery followed by hypothetic hypovolemic anaphylactic shocks, continuous lymphatic leakage from...
Clitoral enlargement in the pediatric population is a rare condition, usually related to problems of sexual differentiation, but malignant and benign clitoral lesions have also been described. We report case newborn infant, investigated at birth for an intersex disorder because clitoromegaly. Hormonal screening was normal ultrasound (US) did not show pelvic or abdominal mass. Three weeks later, lesion larger, tense erythematous. An abscess suspected. A drainage then performed,...
To review at 18 years-old the results of surgery and follow-up children born in our hospital with unilateral cleft lip palate (uCLP). They were operated time by same surgeon, following primary surgical procedure (Malek).
Diffuse lymphangiomatosis is a rare disorder of the lymphatic vessels. Its prognosis poor and its treatment not codified. We describe case 14 years old boy known for malformation left chest wall with pleuropulmonary, bone visceral involvement. He presented respiratory difficulties pleural effusion. The associated thoracic drainage, surgical pleurectomy iterative sclerotherapy. patient currently asymptomatic. On imaging, there decrease lateral component resolution intra-pleural portion....
Primary encephalocele is a rare deformity that challenging for the neurosurgeon. It requires multidisciplinary team adequate reconstructive surgery.We report case of 6-month-old African boy who presented with frontoethmoidal encephalocele; we present technical description surgical procedure, using no implant.The postoperative evolution was uneventful, good clinical result at follow-up.
