Article Synopsis
- - In recent years, multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have emerged as a potential therapy for lung regeneration in preterm infants, suggesting their use could also benefit conditions like pulmonary hypoplasia seen in congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
- - A case study highlighted a newborn with a left congenital diaphragmatic hernia who received two MSC treatments, resulting in improved respiratory function and nutrition without any side effects.
- - While MSC therapy shows promise for addressing pulmonary hypoplasia and intestinal issues related to congenital diaphragmatic hernia, further research is needed to understand side effects, optimal dosages, and administration techniques.
Article Synopsis
- Caudal and dorsal penile nerve blocks are popular anesthesia techniques used during hypospadias surgery, but some studies suggest they may lead to postoperative complications.
- A recent study examined 49 patients with distal hypospadias, comparing outcomes between those receiving caudal blocks and those with ultrasound-guided dorsal nerve blocks.
- The results showed a significant difference in postoperative complications; specifically, 16% of patients with caudal blocks developed fistulas, while none in the dorsal block group did, highlighting potential risks associated with the caudal technique.
Aim: This study prospectively analysed the effect of using a dartos flap on the complication rates of TIPU (tubularised incised plate urethroplasty) in hypospadias repair.
Material And Methods: Patients having TIPU repair for hypospadias at our university hospital between January 2010 and August 2013 were prospectively divided into two groups. Group 1 had TIPU repair with dorsal dartos flap, whereas group 2 had flapless repair.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of chordee in distal hypospadias and compare our intraoperative findings with those reported by the families of patients and to determine if routine testing for chordee should be performed in patients with distal hypospadias.
Material And Methods: Surgical reports and medical files of distal hypospadias patients operated from January 2008 to January 2013 were prospectively reviewed. The type of hypospadias, family's report of chordee, intraoperative finding of chordee and its degree were noted.
Purpose: The Waardenburg-Shah syndrome is an autosomal recessive disease with varied penetration where Hirschsprung's disease and the Waardenburg syndrome are seen together. Although the length of the involved intestinal segment varies in this syndrome, most patients had total colonic aganglionosis with or without small bowel involvement. We present in this study 2 siblings and one first-degree relative for a total of 3 male patients with Waardenburg syndrome and total colonic aganglionosis with or without small bowel involvement, together with their clinical characteristics and treatment methods.
