Four cases of patients suffering from abdominal scar injuries (laparotomic eventration and colonic prolapse through the site of previous colostomy) associated with antineoplastic chemotherapy-induced emesis are presented. The hypothesis of emetic strain as the main cause of eventration of prolapse
Bilateral congenital eventration of the diaphragm almost uniformly presents in infancy with respiratory compromise and is associated with a high mortality rate. Delayed presentation of diaphragmatic eventration in older children and adults may be associated with acute gastric volvulus. Thus, any
Congenital eventration of the diaphragm is uncommon. Its association with a hiatal hernia has not been reported earlier. We report a case of such an association in a 2-month-old boy who presented with tachypnea aggravated by feeding and recurrent vomiting. Diagnostic uncertainty and a unique course
The authors report on a neonate with gastroschisis repaired at birth who later had abdominal distension, emesis, feeding intolerance, and an abnormal stooling pattern. Total colon and partial small bowel aganglionosis (TCAS), or Hirschsprung's disease, was diagnosed subsequently. This is the first
Esophageal hiatal hernia and gastroesophageal reflux have been recognized as inevitable complications after the definitive gastroschisis operation. Patients with refractory gastroesophageal reflux require anti-reflux surgery; however, the surgical adhesions may complicate subsequent OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship between intestinal atresia and fetal growth, intrapartum cardiotocograph abnormalities and staining of the amniotic fluid in gastroschisis pregnancies.
METHODS
Observational study of 115 gastroschisis pregnancies conceived between 1980 and
BACKGROUND
Optimal timing to begin feeds in neonates with gastroschisis remains unclear. We examined if bedside abdominal ultrasound for intestinal motility is a feasible tool to detect return of bowel function in neonates with gastroschisis.
METHODS
Neonates born with uncomplicated gastroschisis
OBJECTIVE
This study sought to summarize the diagnostic and treatment aspects of congenital diaphragmatic eventration (CDE) in children by retrospectively analyzing their medical records to identify and understand the complications of CDE, its treatment, and to evaluate the long-term outcomes of
OBJECTIVE
Neonatal gastric perforation is a rare and serious issue. This study aimed to highlight the vital clinical features and identify prognostic factors in such cases.
UNASSIGNED
Medical charts from January 1997 through December 2008 were reviewed retrospectively. Neonates with a diagnosis of
Eighty-three infants and children underwent surgical correction of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) from 1973 to 1978. Fifty-four patients had coexistent brain damage (most commonly due to cerebral palsy), eight were previously treated for esophageal atresia, and four had gastroschisis or omphalocele
A twenty-seven-year-old 25 weeks gestation female was admitted with recurrent symptoms of nausea, vomiting and epigastric pain. She was diagnosed as left diaphragmatic hernia by chest X-ray film, CT and esophago-gastrography. During operation, a left central tendon defect was observed, and was 3.5
Although the outcome of newborns with surgical congenital diseases (e.g., diaphragmatic hernia; esophageal atresia; omphalocele; gastroschisis) has improved rapidly with recent advances in perinatal intensive care and surgery, infant survivors often require intensive treatment after birth, have
The determination of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) has been shown to be as specific as alphafetoprotein (AFP) for the prenatal detection of open neural tube defects although AFP remains the method of choice. This paper describes a semi-automated technique for the analysis of acetylcholinesterase in
BACKGROUND
Young children with intestinal failure are at risk for complications from rotavirus gastroenteritis. To date, the safety and immunogenicity of rotavirus vaccines in these children are not known. We hypothesized that rotavirus vaccination would be safe and confer immunity to infants with
