An innovative surgical treatment method in persistent rectal prolapse: Ventral abdomino-rectosigmoidopexy through tube sigmoidostomy combined with Ekehorn's rectopexy.

Objective: Herein, the results of the cases, who underwent surgical repair with or without ventral abdomino-rectosigmoidopexy through tube sigmoidostomy combined with Ekehorn's rectopexy due to recurrent rectal prolapse, were discussed.

Methods: The demographic characteristics, surgical technique, and results of children who were operated in the department of Pediatric Surgery for rectal prolapse between 2004 and 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.

Results: In 18 years, six pediatric cases (2 females [33%] and 4 males [67%]) were operated for persistent rectal prolapse.

Expression of androgen, estrogen, and progesterone hormone receptors in the penile tissues of children with different types of hypospadias.

Objective: Androgen (AR), Estrogen (ER) and Progesterone (PR) hormones play an important role in the prenatal and postnatal development of urogenital tract and especially the penis. The expressions of AR, ER and PR receptors in penile tissues in children with hypospadiases had also been shown previously. In this leading study, to demonstrate of the sex hormone receptor expression in cases with different types of hypospadias were aimed.
