Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates pain levels in children under 5 years undergoing inguinal hernia repair using either laparoscopic approach (LA) or traditional open approach (OA).
  • A total of 74 patients' records were reviewed, and pain was assessed using the FLACC scoring system, which rates pain based on facial expressions, leg movement, activity, crying, and consolability.
  • Results showed that while LA is less invasive, it did not result in lower postoperative pain levels compared to OA, particularly in children younger than 2 years.

We encountered a case of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome in which contrast radiologic examinations of the upper and lower digestive tract were performed immediately before and after the development of the clinical symptoms. These contrast radiologic images showed mainly mucosal coarseness and no polyposis of the stomach and colon. The endoscopy, performed 3 months later from the development of the clinical symptoms, revealed polyposis of the stomach and colon.
