[Outpatient surgery for penile hypospadias in pediatric urology: A monocentric experience with a mean follow-up of 3 years].

Introduction: Hypospadias is one of the most common congenital anomalies in men. Outpatient surgery has been proposed but is not widespread. The aim of this study was to evaluate our experience of outpatient surgery for penile hypospadias repair and to specify the constraints for a result similar to a conventional inpatient procedure.

Case reports of large and symptomatic abdominal tumors in newborns: Pitfalls, difficulties in management, and surgical decision making.

Background: Large and rapidly growing abdominal tumors may result in fatal outcomes in newborns. In some cases, a rapidly worsening clinical condition requires surgical decision-making despite the absence of a precise histological diagnosis. In these situations, there is neither a guide nor consensus.

Circumcision and Risk of Febrile Urinary Tract Infection in Boys with Posterior Urethral Valves: Result of the CIRCUP Randomized Trial.

Background: Boys with posterior urethral valves (PUVs) have an increased risk of febrile urinary tract infections (fUTIs). Circumcision is believed to reduce the risk of fUTIs in boys, although there are no randomized trials demonstrating this.

Objective: To determine the effect of circumcision on the risk of fUTIs in boys with PUVs.

Multicystic and diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma in children.

Background: Malignant and multicystic peritoneal mesotheliomas are extremely rare tumors in children, developing from mesothelial cells. No specific guidelines are available at this age.

Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of all identified children (< 18-year-old) treated in France from 1987 to 2017 for a diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (DMPM) or a multicystic peritoneal mesothelioma (MCPM).

Morphometric Analysis of the Umbilicus According to Age.

Background: Morphometric and anatomical analyses of the shape and position of the umbilicus have been conducted in adults, but umbilicoplasty in children remains challenging because growth is still occurring.

Objectives: The main objective of this study was to evaluate the difference in the position and shape of the umbilicus between childhood and adulthood. The secondary objective was to improve the surgical management of umbilicoplasty in children.

Bilateral methachronous testicular germ cell tumor and testicular microlithiasis in a child: Genetic analysis and insights. A case report.

Objectives: To report our experience with a case of a child with bilateral testicular micro-lithiasis (TML) who developed bilateral metachronous testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) and determine the most appropriate follow-up and care management in children with testicular micro calcifications in regards to the theoretical risk of testicular cancer.

Case Report: A 12 year-old boy was diagnosed with TGCT and TML. Ten years after complete remission, he presented with a recurrence on the contralateral testis.

Mast Cells and MCPT4 Chymase Promote Renal Impairment after Partial Ureteral Obstruction.

Obstructive nephropathy constitutes a major cause of pediatric renal progressive disease. The mechanisms leading to disease progression are still poorly understood. Kidney fibrotic lesions are reproduced using a model of partial unilateral ureteral obstruction (pUUO) in newborn mice.

New in vivo model to analyse the expression of angiogenic genes in the borders of a cleft lip.

Defects in the fusion of facial buds can result from an anomaly in tissue development or apoptosis, or both. Our working hypothesis was that anomalies in the development of tissues could be caused by a genetic angiogenic defect. Our main objective was to design a reproducible experimental model to study the expression of angiogenic genes in the borders of cleft lips with or without cleft palate.

[Therapeutic mega-ureter primitive before one year of life, retrospective study of 20years].

Introduction: What is the proper way to manage complicated primary mega-ureter in infants under the age of one. This has already been discussed in the literature but the controversy remains.

Objective: Evaluate the long-term results of the management of mega-ureter based support under the age of one.

[Secondary megaureter: A rare complication of Deflux endoscopic management of vesicoureteral reflux in children].

Endoscopic management is the gold standard for symptomatic low-grade vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) in children. Deflux (hyaluronic acid/dextranomer) injection is highly effective and has very few complications. We report on two cases of secondary megaureter after Deflux injections.

[Umbilicus in children].

The umbilicus is our first scar. It is the last remain of our life in utero. Besides the umbilical hernia, a common pathology during the first three years of life that rarely requires surgery, there are some rare congenital abnormalities such as gastroschisis and omphalocele, which occur in about 1-5/10,000 births.

[Not Available].

Hypospadias is a hypoplasia of the tissues forming the ventral side of the penis responsible of an ectopic meatus of the urethra. This congenital anomaly results in a fusion defect of the two epithelial surfaces of the urethral groove between the 11th and the 18th weeks of development. The earlier this process arrests, the more the form is proximal and severe.

Papillary endothelial hyperplasia (Masson's tumor) in children.

Unlabelled: The intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH/Masson's tumor) is a rare benign tumor of the skin and subcutaneous vessels. We report, in four pediatric cases, clinical presentation, care (diagnostic and surgical) of Masson's tumor in children. Two boys (two years) and two girls (four and six years) showed a pain subcutaneous tumor (one to five centimeters).

Should we question early feminizing genitoplasty for patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia and XX karyotype?

Background: There is a wide difference of opinion between the medical-surgical community and advocacy group regarding Disorders of Sexual Development (DSD) secondary to congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) being ranked in the intersex category. This rupture is even more evident when the issue of genitoplasty is brought up. For physicians it is obvious and unequivocal that a person with CAH and an XX karyotype has a female gender identity, whereas associations tend to rank persons with CAH in the intersex category and advocate holding-off on surgical management.

[Recurrence of pregnancies with gastroschisis: a case report].

Gastroschisis, a parietal anomaly belonging to median celosomia, is characterized by right lateral-umbilical evisceration. Its frequency, estimated at 1 birth in 2700, shows an excellent final prognosis conditioned by the digestive ischemic damage found at birth whose therapeutic management is often limited. No genetic cause is currently incriminated in the genesis of gastroschisis, except syndromic group associations.

[Primary surgery for cleft palate and short hospital stay (48 h): Are they compatible?].

Unlabelled: The aim of this study was to evaluate our practices by studying the duration of hospitalization and the parental real-life experience after a primary surgery of a cleft palate.

Materials And Methods: Monocentric retrospective study by analysis of the patients files and phone interview of the parents whose children were operated for a primary surgery of a cleft palate isolated, or associated with a labial cleft, or included in a syndromic form.

Results: Forty-nine patients (25 B-24 G) were performed by 44 Wardill and five Furlow procedures (average age: 11 months ½) between 2010 and 2012.

Frequency and socio-psychological impact of taunting in school-age patients with cleft lip-palate surgical repair.

Objectives: Cleft lip-palate (CLP) is a "social" pathology because of its impact on the child's facial appearance and speech. School is the first place where children are confronted to others and when they start socializing. Taunting and bullying are common and their psychological impact remains hard to assess.

[The role of balneology in plastic surgery].

Unlabelled: Balneology can be part of the plastic surgery care sector. The objectives of this study were firstly to the state of knowledge about the hydrotherapy and specify the place reserved for hydrotherapy by surgeons as an adjunct in plastic and reconstructive surgery (adult and child).

Materials And Methods: Multicentric national study by poll (Google Drive®) focused at plastic and/or pediatric surgeons.

A pure familial 6q15q21 split duplication associated with obesity and transmitted with partial reduction.

Familial transmission of chromosome 6 duplications is rare. We report on the first observation of a maternally-inherited pure segmental 6q duplication split into two segments, 6q15q16.3 and 6q16.

Results from the French National Esophageal Atresia register: one-year outcome.

Background: The aim of the present national prospective population-based study was to assess the early morbidity of esophageal atresia (EA).

Methods: All 38 multidisciplinary French centers that care for patients with EA returned a specific questionnaire about the 1-year outcome for each patient. This information was centralized, checked, and entered into a database.

[Recurrent distal ileal obstruction by a trichobezoar in a 5-year-old child].

The diagnosis of trichobezoar can be difficult, due to its low prevalence in the pediatric population, limited knowledge of behavioral disorders in children and their prevention, and the difficulty of the clinical diagnosis. We report a case of intestinal occlusion in a 5-year-old child, whose diagnosis was delayed and the trichobezoar, revealed intraoperatively, confined 15cm from the ileocecal valve. Diverging management strategies are proposed in the literature concerning the indication of CT for diagnostic and prognostic purposes, and fibroscopy, still considered as the diagnostic reference.
