Bracka verses Byar's two-stage repair in proximal hypospadias associated with severe chordee: a randomized comparative study.

Introduction: Proximal hypospadias associated with severe chordee represents a major surgical challenge and the debate over its optimal treatment is ongoing. The objective of this study is to compare the outcome of two-stage Bracka and Byar's repair in proximal hypospadias.

Materials And Methods: This study was conducted from January 2013 to February 2018 in a tertiary care centre.

Disorders of Sex Development: A 10 Years Experience with 73 Cases from the Kashmir Valley.

Purpose: To present the clinical data, investigative profile, and management of patients with disorders of sex development (DSD) from the endocrine unit of a tertiary care university hospital.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included 73 cases of DSD, evaluated and managed at Department of Endocrinology, Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Srinagar, Kashmir, over a period of 10 years from September 2008 to August 2018.

Results: Twenty-nine patients (39.

Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome after Augmentation Cystoplasty in a Child with Neurogenic Bladder.

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) or leukoencephalopathy syndrome was introduced into clinical practice in 1996 by Hinchey ., to describe unique syndrome, clinically expressed during hypertensive and uremic encephalopathy, eclampsia, and immunosuppressive therapy. Hyperperfusion with resultant disruption of the blood-brain barrier results in vasogenic edema, but not infarction, most commonly in the parieto-occipital regions.

Buck's fascia repair with glanuloplasty in hypospadias surgery: A simple approach with excellent outcome.

Background: Hypospadias is a common problem encountered in surgical practice and its repair is challenging because of various complications. Urethro-cutaneous fistula is the most common postoperative complication (incidence of 0-33%). Different types of intermediate protective layers have been used in attempts to decrease UCF formation; however, no single surgical technique is ideal.

Congenital duodenal diaphragm and enteroliths: A Unique complication.

We report an unusual case of duodenal diaphragm (DD) with "wind-sock" anomaly in a 6-year-old male. The child presented with an acute duodenal obstruction precipitated by multiple pigmented stones completely blocking the duodenum.

Congenital pouch colon syndrome: a report of 17 cases.

Background: Congenital pouch syndrome (CPC) is a rare condition seen in association with anorectal malformation that occurs almost exclusively in northern India. We reviewed cases seen in our institution to study aspects of clinical presentation, diagnosis, embryogenesis and management and raise awareness of this relatively infrequent entity.

Patients And Methods: From March 2002 to September 2004, 17 neonates/infants (11 males and 6 females) treated for CPC associated with anorectal malformations included 13 with type IV and 4 with type I CPC.
