Dopo avere analizzato le possibili ipotesi fisiopatologiche sulla formazione del prolasso rettale esterno, con le conseguenti opzioni chirurgiche della chirurgia transanale, sono messe a confronto le varie procedure chirurgiche transanali, in particolare la retto-sigmoidectomia perineale secondo Altemeier, intervento attualmente rivalutato soprattutto se combinato alla plastica degli elevatori dell’ano. Il contributo della laparoscopia è ancora in fase di discussione e il suo ruolo nella chirurgia del prolasso rettale esterno potrà meglio evidenziarsi nel tempo.

China. *Equal contribu- tors. Received June 21, 2017; Accepted December 2, 2017; Epub January 15, 2018; Published January 30, 2018 Abstract: Post-operative complications (PCs) remain a common morbidity of esophageal atresia (EA) repairs. Ac- curate diagnosis and appropriate treatments for these PCs remain a great challenge for pediatric surgeons. All EA patients admitted to our institution from 2010 to 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Demographics, types of PCs, PC diagnosis, treatments, and follow-ups were recorded. Totally 157 of 172 patients with EA underwent primary repairs. PCs occurred in 65 patients (41.4%). Based on univariate analysis, the Gross classification sig- nificantly influenced the incidence of PCs (P < 0.01). The most frequent PCs were anastomotic strictures (23.7%), anastomotic leakages (11.1%), gastroesophageal reflux (5.9%), and recurrent tracheoesophageal fistulas (5.2%). Anastomotic strictures and leakages were confirmed by esophagography. Gastroesophageal reflux and recurrent tracheoesophageal fistulas were demonstrated with radionuclide scintigraphy and esophagoscopy, respectively. All of the patients with anastomotic strictures underwent esophageal dilatation. Conservative treatments were successfully performed in all of the patients with anastomotic leakages. Anti-reflux medications were prescribed to all of the patients with gastroesophageal reflux. All of the patients with recurrent tracheoesophageal fistulas -un derwent re-operations.

European Journal of Medical Case Reports. 2017;1(2):65–68. Medical Case Reports https://doi.org/10.24911/ejmcr/1/16. CASE REPORT Rectovestibular fistula – diagnosis by radiological evaluation: a case report Bharat Bhushan Sharma1*, Shashi Sharma2, Naveen Bhardwaj1, Sakshi Dewan1, Mir Rizwan Aziz1 ABSTRACT Background: Anorectal malformations (ARM) can present in different fashions. Rectovestibular fistula is one of the congenital ARM. There is abnormal connection between the rectum and vulval vestibule. ARM is called as rectovaginal fistula if it is within the hymen. Case presentation: We present a 7-years old female child who reported of passing feces and gas through the vaginal passage. The child was brought late by the parents because of rural background. She was evaluated by abdomen plain Xray, US, MRI and special investigation by injecting contrast from the common opening. The diagnosis was confirmed as that of congenital recto-vestibular fistula (CRF) by these radiological investigations. Conclusion: Radiological modalities are of great importance for the confirmatory diagnosis of rectovestibular fistula. This further helps in appropriate surgical management. Keywords: anorectal malformation, US, MRI, special investigation, CRF, case report. Background Rectovestibular fistula (RVF) is the communication assistance. There was no proper anal orifice at birth. between rectum and vulvar vestibular part which lies On examination, the child was found to be of average posterior to the hymen.

The term duplication of the alimentary tract was Generally, symptoms are related to size, location, and the coined by William Ladd in 1937.1 He described three com- presence of heterotopic mucosa. With advances in prenatal mon findings: a well-developed smooth muscle coat, an imaging, many of these masses are being diagnosed in utero epithelial lining, and attachment to the alimentary tract. (Fig. 39.1) and the majority are discovered before 2 years In 1952 Gross et al. reported the first large series describ- of age.4,5,15 A recent study from the Children’s Hospital of ing 67 patients with these findings.2 These duplications are Philadelphia (CHOP) found that 58% of duplications were relatively rare congenital anomalies found anywhere from diagnosed prenatally over a 25-year period.16 The major- the mouth to the anus with an incidence reported to be 1 in ity of duplications are cystic (Fig. 39.2), and the remaining 4500 births.3 Presentation is variable, and resection is usu- are tubular (Fig. 39.3). The ileum and jejunum are the most ally recommended in order to prevent worsening symptoms commonly affected locations, followed by the esophagus.5 or malignant transformation. The epithelial lining is usually native to the surrounding enteric tract, but heterotopic mucosa is found in approxi- mately one-third of duplications.5 Gastric tissue is the most Embryology common type of ectopic mucosa, followed by pancreatic tis- sue, and there are reports of respiratory epithelium being Alimentary tract duplications take many forms, and one found as well (Fig.

  • Ocular Manifestations of Inherited Diseases Maya Eibschitz-Tsimhoni
    10 Ocular Manifestations of Inherited Diseases Maya Eibschitz-Tsimhoni ecognizing an ocular abnormality may be the first step in Ridentifying an inherited condition or syndrome. Identifying an inherited condition may corroborate a presumptive diagno- sis, guide subsequent management, provide valuable prognostic information for the patient, and determine if genetic counseling is needed. Syndromes with prominent ocular findings are listed in Table 10-1, along with their alternative names. By no means is this a complete listing. Two-hundred and thirty-five of approxi- mately 1900 syndromes associated with ocular or periocular manifestations (both inherited and noninherited) identified in the medical literature were chosen for this chapter. These syn- dromes were selected on the basis of their frequency, the char- acteristic or unique systemic or ocular findings present, as well as their recognition within the medical literature. The boldfaced terms are discussed further in Table 10-2. Table 10-2 provides a brief overview of the common ocular and systemic findings for these syndromes. The table is organ- ized alphabetically; the boldface name of a syndrome is followed by a common alternative name when appropriate. Next, the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM™) index num- ber is listed. By accessing the OMIM™ website maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology Information at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov, the reader can supplement the material in the chapter with the latest research available on that syndrome. A MIM number without a prefix means that the mode of inheritance has not been proven. The prefix (*) in front of a MIM number means that the phenotype determined by the gene at a given locus is separate from those represented by other 526 chapter 10: ocular manifestations of inherited diseases 527 asterisked entries and that the mode of inheritance of the phe- notype has been proven.
