Purpose. Presentation of clinical cases of rare combination of omphalocele with pylorostenosis in the postoperative period and additional liver lobe. Materials and methods. In National Medical Research Center for Childrens Health of health surgical ward of newborns and infants for the 2019 us operated 2 children who performed surgery involving intra-operative decision making about further surgical tactics. Results. the results of surgical treatment of newborns with omphalocele combined with hypertrophic pylorostenosis and extra liver lobe are presented. Conclusions. In patients with malformations of the anterior abdominal wall in the postoperative period, when regurgitation syndrome appears, it is necessary to make a differential diagnosis between the functional and organic causes of obstruction. When confirming the organic nature of the obstruction, surgical intervention is indicated. It is necessary to be able to timely and objectively assess the risks and expediency of the approach when choosing surgical tactics in each individual case.
BACKGROUND: The preserved cloaca is a particular type of anorectal anomaly. The combination of urological, genital, and rectal abnormalities makes radical reconstruction difficult. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study examined operations performed in 50 patients with persistent cloaca treated from 2010 to 2021. Two groups are presented: the first with 35 children and a short canal (3 cm), and the second with 15 children and a long canal (3 cm). We examined the prognosis for bowel control, the type of operation, the need for vaginal reconstruction, complications after surgery, and the days of hospital stay. RESULTS: Anomalies of the Mllerian ducts in the second group (94%) were higher than in the first (36%) (p 0.001). The sacral index and myelodysplasia did not differ in both groups. The sacral index in the first group was 0.62 0.14, and in the second group, it was 0.58 0.14 (p = 0.520). Myelodysplasia in the first group was 33%, and in the second group, it was 38% (p = 0.744). Total urogenital mobilization (51%) was used in the first group, and abdominal reconstruction (54%) was used in the second group. Vaginal reconstruction was required in 28% of patients in the first group and 60% in the second group. Complications were 3.5 times more likely in the first group (60% versus 17% in the second) (p = 0.003). The length of hospital stay in patients in the second group was longer than that of patients in the first group. CONCLUSION: Our study data demonstrate that the reconstruction of a persistent cloaca requires individual planning of the operation, considering the length of the canal and the state of all structures forming the cloaca.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
