Article Synopsis
  • - Two congenital anomalies were identified in an infant, involving the umbilicus, including a mass present since birth and a patent urachus observed during a cystourethrogram.
  • - During surgical exploration, a patent vitellointestinal duct was discovered alongside the urachus, leading to surgical resection and anastomosis of the duct, while the urachus was excised.
  • - Histopathological analysis revealed intestinal epithelium in the duct and a dense fibrous structure in the urachus, with a cautionary note about the proximity of omphalo-mesenteric vessels during surgery to avoid excessive bleeding.

Background: Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is the most common cause of antenatal hydronephrosis. Although majority of them improve with time, none of the existing diagnostic modalities can accurately predict which hydronephrotic kidney is at the risk of progressive renal damage and will benefit from early surgery. Postural variations in the anteroposterior pelvic diameter (APPD) of the hydronephrotic kidney in children during follow-up postnatal ultrasonography (USG) reflect the intrapelvic tension, which might help in predicting the need of surgery amongst these patients.

Article Synopsis
  • * The ectopic testis was located in the femoral region, leading to the decision to perform an orchidopexy (surgical repositioning of the testis).
  • * This report highlights a unique case of extracorporeal testicular ectopia through the femoral region, noting that traditional terms like scrotoschisis do not apply due to the location of the defect.

Article Synopsis
  • - Male congenital urethrocutaneous fistula is a rare condition linked to other anomalies like chordee or anorectal malformations, characterized by an abnormal urethral opening on the underside of the penis.
  • - The distal urethra and meatus (urinary opening) at the tip of the glans (head of the penis) are usually well-formed despite the fistula.
  • - Treatment varies based on the fistula's location, any related anomalies, and the condition of the distal urethra, and it adheres to the standard practices of hypospadias surgery.

Article Synopsis
  • - Anorectal malformations (ARMs) are frequent congenital defects found in newborns.
  • - While colonic perforation is uncommon in cases of ARMs, delays in diagnosis can lead to serious complications.
  • - Early detection and treatment of ARMs are crucial for improving health outcomes and reducing the risk of colonic perforation.
