    Vomiting in Children T. Matthew Shields, MD,* Jenifer R. Lightdale, MD, MPH* *Division of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, UMass Memorial Children’s Medical Center, Department of Pediatrics, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, MA Education Gaps 1. There are at least 4 known physiologic pathways that can trigger vomiting, 3 of which are extraintestinal. 2. Understanding which pathway is causing a patient’s vomiting will help determine best treatment options, including which antiemetic is most likely to be helpful to mitigate symptoms. 3. Bilious emesis in a newborn should indicate bowel obstruction. 4. Cyclic episodes of vomiting may be indicative of a migraine variant. Objectives After completing this article, readers should be able to: 1. Understand the main pathways that trigger vomiting via the emetic reflex. 2. Differentiate among acute, chronic, and cyclic causes of vomiting. 3. Create a broad differential diagnosis for vomiting based on a patient’s history, physical examination findings, and age. 4. Recognize red flag signs and symptoms of vomiting that require emergent evaluation. 5. Recognize when to begin an antiemetic medication. AUTHOR DISCLOSURE Dr Shields has 6.

While laparoscopic technique for distal and for total pancreatectomy has been developed, minimally invasive resection of the pancreatic neck with pancreatico-jejunostomy has not been reported in children before. Case summary: A 2-year old boy suffered from congenital hyperinsulinism, which was refractory to high-dose medical treatment. The nuclear-medicine scanrevealed a focal lesion of the pancreatic neck, hence partial pancreatectomy was indicated. On laparoscopy, a slightly prominent tissue mass was apparent in the area of the pancreatic neck. We proceeded with laparoscopic mobilisation of the pancreas from the underlying splenic vessels and resected the pancreatic neck and adjacent parts of the body and the head. After macroscopic resection of the mass, the patient's intraoperative blood glucose levels increased to a point where insulin had to be substituted. To drain the pancreatic tail, we formed an end-to-side anastomosis in the proximal Jejunum and brought the open end to the pancreatic tail and performed a laparoscopic pancreatico-jejunostomy.

  • Gastroparesis and Dumping Syndrome: Current Concepts and Management

Vavricka 1,2,* and Thomas Greuter 2 1 Center of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, CH-8048 Zurich, Switzerland 2 Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, University Hospital Zurich, CH-8091 Zurich, Switzerland * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 21 June 2019; Accepted: 23 July 2019; Published: 29 July 2019 Abstract: Gastroparesis and dumping syndrome both evolve from a disturbed gastric emptying mechanism. Although gastroparesis results from delayed gastric emptying and dumping syndrome from accelerated emptying of the stomach, the two entities share several similarities among which are an underestimated prevalence, considerable impairment of quality of life, the need for a multidisciplinary team setting, and a step-up treatment approach. In the following review, we will present an overview of the most important clinical aspects of gastroparesis and dumping syndrome including epidemiology, pathophysiology, presentation, and diagnostics. Finally, we highlight promising therapeutic options that might be available in the future. Keywords: gastroparesis; dumping syndrome; pathophysiology; clinical presentation; treatment 1. Introduction Gastroparesis and dumping syndrome both evolve from a disturbed gastric emptying mechanism. While gastroparesis results from significantly delayed gastric emptying, dumping syndrome is a consequence of increased flux of food into the small bowel [1,2]. The two entities share several important similarities: (i) gastroparesis and dumping syndrome are frequent, but also frequently overlooked; (ii) they affect patient’s quality of life considerably due to possibly debilitating symptoms; (iii) patients should be taken care of within a multidisciplinary team setting; and (iv) treatment should follow a step-up approach from dietary modifications and patient education to pharmacological interventions and, finally, surgical procedures and/or enteral feeding.

As such, there has been recent innovation and development in minimally invasive endoscopic treatments for gastroparesis. Endoscopic therapies that have been investigated for gastroparesis include enteral feeding tube placement, intrapyloric botulinum toxin injection, transpyloric stenting, gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy, and gastric electrical stimulation. This article aims to assess the effectiveness of current endoscopic therapies, as well as discuss future directions for endoscopic therapies, in the management of gastroparesis. astroparesis is defined as a complex syndrome of symp- toms, including early satiety, postprandial fullness, nausea, vomiting, bloating, and upper abdominal pain, with a Gcorresponding objective delay in gastric emptying in the absence of mechanical obstruction.1 The primary etiologies

All these are completed by the ability to manage the immediate and critical situations dynamically and to analyze the diseases interdisciplinarily (e.g. diagnosis, differential diagnosis, appropriate decision among the alternative possibilities of treatment, etc.). A successful surgical intervention requires even more than this. It needs the perfect, aimful and economical coordination of operational movements. The refined technique of the handling and uniting the tissues –in the case of manual skills– is attainable by many practices, and the good surgeon works on the perfection of this technique in his daily operating activities. The most important task in the medical education is to teach the problem-oriented thinking and the needed practical ability. The graduate medical student will notice in a short time that a medical practitioner principally needs the practical knowledge and manual skill in provision for the sick. “The surgical techniques” is a popular subJect. It is a subJect in which the medical students -for the first time- will see the inside of the living and pulsating organism.

Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Endoluminal surgery has innovated the management of foregut disorders including gastric motility disorders such as gastroparesis, upper gastrointestinal (GI) neoplasms including early-stage gastric cancer, gastric outlet obstruction, and management of post-operative foregut complications. Foregut pathologies that would have otherwise required abdominal incisions can now be successfully managed in the most minimally invasive available fashion. Intramural intervention, such as that used for per-oral pyloromyotomy (POP) which will be described here, has revolutionized the treatment of motility disorders of the foregut. Many aspects of the techniques described in this chapter share and build off of one another and several of the endoscopic instruments utilized are also shared across procedures. This is one of the many reasons endoluminal surgery has blossomed over the last two decades. To truly flourish as a foregut surgeon is to have the capability to perform the open, laparoscopic and the existing and future endoscopic alternatives of procedures of this specialty, as well as to manage complications in an endoscopic fashion when possible.

The study reviews all procedures listed in the “Surgery” section of the 2016 American Medical Association’s Current Procedural Terminology (CPT TM). Each organization was asked to review new codes since 2013 that are applicable to their specialty and determine whether the operation requires the use of a physician as an assistant at surgery: (1) almost always; (2) almost never; or (3) some of the time. The results of this study are presented in the accompanying report, which is in a table format. This table presents information about the need for a physician as an assistant at surgery. Also, please note that an indication that a physician would “almost never” be needed to assist at surgery for some procedures does NOT imply that a physician is never needed. The decision to request that a physician assist at surgery remains the responsibility of the primary surgeon and, when necessary, should be a payable service.
