Abstract Purpose To compare the results of Tauber’s antegrade sclerotherapy at different pubertal stages and, notably, to evaluate its feasibility in pre-pubertal age. Methods We retrospectively reviewed clinical records patients that underwent our centre between 2005 and 2019. divided population into groups based on stage according Tanner’s classification. Pre-operative, intra-operative post-operative data were collected. Finally, we assessed association surgery, operative characteristics,...
Abstract Introduction The survival of preterm babies has increased worldwide, but the risk neuro-developmental disabilities remains high, which is concern to both public and professionals. early identification children at may increase access intervention, potentially influencing outcome. Aims Neuroprem an area-based prospective cohort study on outcome very low birth weight (VLBW) infants that aims define severe functional disability 2 years age. Methods Surviving VLBW from Italian network 7...
General movements (GMs) in combination with neurological examination and magnetic resonance imaging at term age can accurately determine the risk of cerebral palsy. The present study aimed to assess whether 11 motor postural patterns concomitant GMs were associated Video recordings performed after birth 79 preterm infants reviewed retrospectively. Thirty-seven developed palsy 2 years corrected remaining 42 showed typical development. assessed from fidgety GM trajectories defined. evaluated...
Abstract Background Postoperative hypocalcemia is a frequent complication after thyroidectomy. Hypoparathyroidism may develop as transient (TtHP), with normalization within six months from surgery, or permanent (PtHP) if the patient requires replacement therapy. We analyzed factors associated development of postoperative hypoparathyroidism and in detail PtHP following thyroid surgery pediatric population. Procedure A retrospective multicenter study analyzing 326 patients was carried out....
<b><i>Aim:</i></b> To describe architecture and expression of myosin isoforms the human cremaster muscle (CM) to individuate changes in clinically differentiated abnormalities testicular descent: cryptorchidism or undescended testis (UDT) retractile (RT). <b><i>Background:</i></b> The CM is a nonsomitic striated differentiating from mesenchyme gubernaculum testis. Morphofunctional molecular peculiarities linked its unique embryological origin...
Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) is the most important cause of non-bilious vomiting during infancy and it usually idiopathic. It very rare in older children adolescents, which gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) more typically secondary to other conditions. Gastrointestinal malformation are frequently associated with Down syndrome some them (especially duodenal abnormalities) can be detected quite late. In infants standard treatment HPS represented by a Ramstedt pyloromyotomy, while adults...
Background: Postoperative hypocalcemia is a frequent complication after thyroid surgery. Hypoparathyroidism may develop as transient (TtHP), with normalization within six months from surgery, or permanent (PtHP) if the patient requires replacement therapy. The present study analyzes rates and factors associated development of TtHP PtHP following surgery in pediatric population. Procedure: A retrospective multicenter analyzing 363 patients was carried out. We recorded gender, age, tumor size,...
Gangliocytic Paraganglioma is rarely reported in the paediatric age. We describe a case of 4-month-old infant presenting with an intestinal obstruction from ileocolic intussusception led by Meckel's diverticulum. A male underwent explorative laparotomy. An small mass diverticulum wall was found at surgery, which revealed to be Paraganglioma. The occurrence this type tumour peculiar children and has never been infants association intussusception.
