Pneumovesicoscopic Transvesical Ureteric Reimplantation for the Correction of Congenital Lower Ureteric Anomalies in Children: A Regional Arabian Gulf Multicenter Retrospective Experience.

Objective: To report and compare the outcomes of 3 different techniques of pneumovesicoscopic ureteric reimplantation applied in children.

Methods: The study included 178 renal units in 105 patients who underwent pneumovesicoscopic reimplantation between January 2016 and October 2021. Presentation, indication for surgery, surgical technique, operative time, operative details, days of hospitalization and catheterization, and outcome were retrieved from patients' electronic records.

Is endoscopy beneficial in pediatric laparoscopic gastrostomy insertion; A 9-year comparative study.

Objectives: Advancements in pediatric percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy placement (PEG), laparoscopic-assisted gastrostomy (LAG) technique, and laparoscopic-assisted percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (LAPEG) procedure have opened up new options for gastrostomy tube placement. LAPEG utilizes endoscopy and laparoscopy for gastrostomy insertion. This review compares the outcomes and complications of LAG and LAPEG techniques in children.

Modified Traction Technique for Intraabdominal Testes With Short Vessels.

Objective: To assess the safety and efficacy of modified testicular traction technique in treatment of intraabdominal and peeping testes with short vessels.

Patients And Methods: In the pediatric surgery unit, Sheikh Khalifa Medical City, Abu Dhabi, UAE, and in the pediatric urology unit, Ibn Sina Hospital, Kuwait, Forty testes in 32 patients were operated using the modification of staged traction laparoscopic-orchiopexy. The modified technique involved intracorporeal placement of suture, gabernacular sparing, no intraabdominal dissection and shorter traction duration as short as 7 days without the need of inguinal incision.

Conservative management of grade 1V renal injury with complete transection: a case report.

The expectant management of high grade renal injuries in hemodynamically stable children has gained increasing acceptance amongst paediatric surgeons. However, patients with grade 1V injury with complete renal transection have been identified as a subgroup with a poor outcome that may benefit from early operative intervention.Interestingly, both internal and external drainage have been independently utilised as part of the expectant approach.
