Inguinal hernia in infant is a condition of protrusion of the intestinal organs due to thepatency of processus vaginalis. The ratio of incidence between male and female infants isapproximately 8:1. The incidence of inguinal hernia ranges from 1-5% in children and full-terminfants, whereas in premature infants there is a significant increase in the number, which is around30%. Clinical manifestations that can occur in infants with inguinal hernias are the appearance ofa lump when straining, crying, coughing, or sneezing, patient could look restless because of thepain and discomfort. The diagnosis of inguinal hernia can be made by history taking, physicalexamination, and supporting examination. Management of inguinal hernia is by surgery, can bean open herniotomy or laparoscopy.Keywords: inguinal hernia; infant Abstrak: Hernia inguinalis pada bayi merupakan kondisi penonjolan organ intestinal akibatadanya patensi prosesus vaginalis. Perbandingan rasio kejadian antara anak laki-laki dan perempuankurang lebih sekitar 8:1. Insidensi hernia inguinalis berkisar 1-5% pada anak dan bayi cukupbulan, sedangkan pada bayi prematur terdapat kenaikan angka yang bermakna yaitu sekitar 30%.Manifestasi klinis yang dapat terjadi pada anak dengan hernia inguinalis adalah timbulnyabenjolan pada saat mengedan, menangis, batuk, atau bersin, anak terlihat gelisah karena nyeri danrasa tidak nyaman. Penegakan diagnosis hernia inguinalis dapat dilakukan dengan anamnesis,pemeriksaan fisik, dan pemeriksaan penunjang.

Embolization is a technique to stop or prevent bleeding by inserting an object, such as an air-filled membrane (balloon), or an embolic material such as foam into a blood vessel to block the blood flow. This study aimed to prove that preoperative embolization might affect and reduce the amount of intraoperative bleeding during the posterior stabilization procedure for thoracolumbal vertebrae fracture. A quasi-experimental method was chosen for this study, and samples were not taken at random. Samples were patients with thoracolumbal vertebrae fracture who underwent the posterior stabilization procedure. Samples were divided into two groups, treated with and without preoperative embolization groups. The treatment was given 24-48 hours before posterior stabilization procedure. The intraoperative bleeding was measured in milliliters. The resulys showed that the average intraoperative blood loss was 283.3 mL, meanwhile of the untreated group was 583.3 mL. The one-way t-test resulted in a p-value of 0.004 at 5% of significance. In conclusion, preoperative embolization could reduce the amount of blood loss during intra-operative posterior stabilization in patients with thoracolumbar vertebral fractures. Further research on preoperative embolization in patient who will undergo posterior stabilization surgery of the thoracolumbal region due to fracture, either mechanically or generatively, is needed. Keywords: preoperative embolization; intraoperative blood loss
Embolization is an effective way of controlling bleeding. This study was aimed to provide some information about preoperative spinal embolization, embolization materials, and complications. This was a literature review study using an online journal database and Google Scholar. The keywords used were Preoperative Spinal Embolization. The feasibility of the selected studies were case reports. The results showed that all studies used the same technique and approach to achieve different goals. The difference among them was the choice of embolan material. The complications that arose were few and could be managed. In conclusion, preoperative spinal embolization is the choice of therapy that give more benefit and safety.Keywords: preoperative spinal embolization; spinal decompression surgery; embolan Abstrak: Embolisasi merupakan cara yang efektif dalam mengontrol perdarahan. Penelitian ini bertujuan memberikan informasi mengenai embolisasi tulang belakang, bahan embolan, dan komplikasi yang ditimbulkan. Jenis penelitian ialah suatu literature review menggunakan database jurnal online dan Google Scholar. Pencarian data menggunakan kata kunci Preoperative Spinal Embolization. Kelayakan penelitian yang dipilih bersifat case report. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan bahwa semua penelitian menggunakan teknik dan pendekatan yang sama untuk mencapai tujuan yang berbeda. Perbedaannya ialah dalam hal pemilihan bahan embolan. Komplikasi yang terjadi hanya sedikit dan dapat diatasi. Simpulan penelitian ini ialah preoperative spinal embolization merupakan terapi pilihan yang menguntungkan dan aman.Kata kunci: embolisasi preoperatif; operasi dekompresi tulang belakang; embolan
Scrotal mass is one of the diseases in the urology field with a moderately high prevalence. Problems with the contents of scrotum vary, ranging from infections, tumors, to fluid. Diagnosis of scrotal mass is based on detail ananmnesis, systematic physical examination, and other supporting examinations. Scrotal ultrasound can confirm the exact location of a mass and rule out the presence of an inguinal hernia. Scrotal masses in adults require a formal examination with serum tumor markers, scrotal ultrasound as needed, and immediate consultation with a urologist for staging and further intervention. Scrotal masses in children are much less common than in adults and should be evaluated by a urologist.Keywords: scrotal mass; children Abstrak: Massa skrotum merupakan salah satu penyakit di bidang urologi dengan prevalensi yang cukup tinggi. Masalah pada isi skrotum bervariasi, mulai dari infeksi, tumor, hingga cairan. Diagnosis massa skrotum ditegakkan melalui anamnesis yang cermat, pemeriksaan fisik terarah, dan pemeriksaan penunjang. Ultrasonografi (USG) skrotum dapat mengonfirmasi lokasi yang tepat dari suatu massa sekaligus menyingkirkan adanya hernia inguinalis. Massa testis pada dewasa memerlukan pemeriksaan formal, dengan penanda tumor serum, USG skrotum sesuai kebutuhan, dan konsultasi segera dengan ahli urologi untuk staging dan intervensi lebih lanjut. Massa skrotum pada anak jauh lebih jarang daripada dewasa dan harus dievaluasi oleh seorang ahli urologi.Kata kunci: massa skrotum; anak
