Proliferative Fasciitis in Childhood: A Review of Clinical Data Apropos of a Case.

Proliferative Fasciitis (PF) is a benign lesion with histologic and clinical features overlapping with those of malignant soft tissue tumours. Its occurrence in children is considered very rare. We present a case of PF appearing as a painful, red, gradually increasing in size lesion, during a period of a few weeks, on the finger of a five-year-old boy compromising the dermis and subcutaneous tissue.

Imperforate Anus with Fistula Exiting at the Penile Skin.

We present the case of a male neonate with imperforate anus and a fistula exiting on the penile skin. Anorectal malformations in boys often present themselves with an entero-perineal or entero-urinary tract fistula, the type of which is a key feature for the classification and the treatment plan. A fistula exiting in front of the scrotum, such as described in our case, is very rare and is not incorporated in the current classification and treatment algorithms.

A combined preperitoneal and inguinal approach for redo orchiopexy.

Introduction: Redo orchiopexy involves a hazardous dissection inside the inguinal canal (IC) where scar tissue encircles the testicular vessels (TesV), vas deferens (VD), and the testis.

Objective: The aim was to describe and evaluate a combined preperitoneal and inguinal approach (CPI) through a single cutaneous incision and accomplish this task as safely as possible, at the same time permitting additional maneuvers for cord lengthening.

Material And Methods: We prospectively studied eight patients aged from 2.

Prentiss orchiopexy applied in younger age group.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the operative technique for the correction of cryptorchidism described by Prentiss in the 1950s, who conducted measurements on patients over 6 years of age, and on cadaveric specimens. We applied the technique in a younger age group.

Material And Methods: We prospectively studied the results of 50 orchiopexies in children 8-59 months of age (mean 32.

Adenomyoma of the small intestine in children: a rare cause of intussusception: a case report.

Adenomyomas are hamartomas of the alimentary tract with exceptionally rare localization at the ileum. The case presented here concerns an infant aged 18 months suffering from adenomyoma of the ileum, which was responsible for the development of ileoileac intussusception. Our paper aims at underlining the particularities of this extremely rare entity, while adding the 13th case reported to the international bibliographic references.
