    Infradiaphragmatic extralobar pulmonary sequestration masquerading as an intra-abdominal, suprarenal mass (1997)

    Notes: Abstract Three infants were found to have infradiaphragmatic masses by prenatal ultrasound. Postnatal imaging studies confirmed the presence of these masses, which were suspected of being intra-abdominal malignancies (neuroblastoma). The other principal differential diagnosis was extralobar pulmonary sequestration (EPS). Intraoperative findings were consistent with EPS, which was confirmed by histologic examination. We present these three infants, review the literature, and discuss the evaluation and treatment of infradiaphragmatic EPS.

    Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy: a safer technique (1998)
    Springer
    Pediatric surgery international 13 (1998), S. 240-242 
    Details
    ISSN: 1437-9813
    Keywords: Key words Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis ; Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract A modified technique of laparoscopic pyloromyotomy was used to treat infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Introducing a 5-mm periumbilical port for visualization, two stab wounds are made on either side laterally to directly insert 2.7-mm instruments for manipulation. From the left, the stomach is grasped – not the duodenum! From the right, an inexpensive disposable arthroscopy knife is used to incise the serosa and begin the myotomy, which is completed with a laparoscopic spreader until the muscle is separated sufficiently to relieve the obstruction. Twenty-nine children treated with laparoscopic pyloromyotomy were compared to 125 children treated with the conventional open Ramstedt pyloromyotomy. There were no statistically significant differences in the presentation or results between groups, suggesting that the laparoscopic technique is a safe and equal alternative.

    Resection of foregut-derived duplications by minimal-access surgery (1999)
    Springer
    Pediatric surgery international 15 (1999), S. 224-226 
    Details
    ISSN: 1437-9813

    Notes: Abstract Eight children underwent minimal-access surgery (MAS) for duplications of foregut derivatives. The efficacy and safety of this approach are reviewed. The seven patients with mediastinal lesions had video-assisted thoracoscopic resection. One lesion presented as a subdiaphragmatic esophageal diverticulum, which was excised laparoscopically. Between March 1991 and October 1997, eight children were treated. Mean age was 27 months and mean weight was 11.4 kg. Mean operating time was 106 min, and mean postoperative hospital stay was 4.5 days (median = 2 days). Persistent air leaks occurred in two patients who had centrally-located bronchogenic cysts. One of these, who had undergone subtotal excision with laser photoablation of the remaining cyst mucosa, developed a recurrence that was excised at thoracotomy. We conclude that esophageal and bronchogenic cysts and duplications may be safely excised by MAS in children, with excellent cosmetic and functional outcome. Two technical points are noted: (1) a thoracostomy tube is required for central mediastinal lesions; and (2) complete excision is required to prevent recurrence.

    Laparoscopic evaluation and treatment of intestinal malrotation in infants (1996)

    Notes: Abstract Infants with intestinal malrotation present with bilious emesis and the diagnosis is generally obtained by an upper gastrointestinal barium study. Malrotation is suspected if the ligament of Treitz is not positioned to the left of the vertebral body. Barium enema may also be used to detect malrotation by noting the abnormal position of the cecum from its usual placement in the right lower quadrant, but this study is not as reliable due to the mobility of the cecum. Some infants may not have classic radiographic findings for malrotation, yet the contrast studies are not entirely normal. We recently treated two infants with recurrent vomiting whose UGI studies suggested intestinal malrotation. Laparoscopic exploration confirmed the diagnosis of malrotation. Laparoscopic correction (Ladd's procedure) of malrotation was carried out in one infant. The second infant underwent a traditional Ladd's procedure. The technique of laparoscopic Ladd's procedure is described. Laparoscopy may be used for the diagnosis and treatment of infants with intestinal malrotation. It may be especially helpful to verify the diagnosis in patients who do not have classic radiographic findings. Whether laparoscopy should be used in patients with midgut volvulus is debatable. Laparoscopic derotation of the volvulus in a setting where the bowel is markedly distended may be difficult and dangerous.
