Total colonic aganglionosis: management and long-term outcomes at a referral centre.

Objectives: The management of total colonic aganglionosis (TCA) in low-middle income countries (LMIC) is challenging. We aimed to analyze the profile, management, and outcome of patients with TCA at an Indian referral centre.

Methods: A retrospective review of demography, presentation, investigations, and treatment of patients with TCA at a single centre over 22 years with a standardized protocol is detailed.

Impacted esophageal foreign bodies in children.

Purpose: Foreign body (FB) ingestion in children has varied presentation. When unwitnessed, it poses therapeutic and diagnostic challenges especially in the presence of pre-existing anatomical pathology. We aim to analyze the clinical course, management, and outcome of children with impacted esophageal FBs.

Solitary Functioning Kidney in High Anorectal Malformation.

Aim: A solitary functioning renal unit in high anorectal malformation may harbor anomalies in the upper/lower urinary tract that further compromise renal function and accelerate hyperfiltration injury. We aimed to analyze the clinical course, management, and outcome of children with a solitary renal unit and high anorectal malformation.

Materials And Methods: A cohort of solitary renal units in anorectal malformation managed between 2000 and 2015 with a defined protocol at a pediatric nephro-urology clinic are included in the study.
