BACKGROUND: A unified system for assessing the severity of congenital clubfoot in newborns and young children worldwide remains to be established. “Rigidity” of foot deformity refers to the degree of “resistance” of foot tissues during manual correction of elements of the deformity and is often used in subjective severity of foot deformity assessment. However, there is no objective quantitative assessment for the degree of foot rigidity. AIM: The study aimed to introduce a novel clinical sign — ”rigidity of foot deformation”, which enables objective assessment of the severity of foot deformity in congenital clubfoot. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Before applying the first plaster cast, a clinical dynamometric examination was performed on 350 feet of 229 children, followed by a mathematical calculation of the foot rigidity index. Statistical analysis was performed using the nonparametric Mann–Whitney U-test and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient. Differences were considered significant at p 0.05. RESULTS: Significant differences were found in all clinical and dynamometric parameters between congenital clubfoot of I–II, III, and IV degrees (p ≤ 0.05). Generally, the higher the degree of deformity, the more effort required to eliminate it, the smaller angle of simultaneous correction, and the higher index of foot rigidity. The results of Spearman’s correlation analysis of clinical dynamometric examination indicators in children with congenital clubfoot of I–II degree may indicate the mobile nature of the foot deformity; III degree, a rigid version of the deformity; and IV degree, an extremely rigid degree of deformity. CONCLUSIONS: Rigidity of the foot deformity is a crucial clinical sign that characterizes the severity of the foot deformity, which has a quantitative characteristic — the rigidity index. Initial data on foot rigidity enables objective assessment of the severity of the deformity and selecting an individual approach to its elimination when applying staged plaster casts using the Ponseti method.

BACKGROUND: Anemia can be diagnosed before surgery, occur during surgical treatment, and develop and worsen in the postoperative period in children with surgical diseases. Anemia is associated with increased morbidity, severe complications, and even death after surgical treatment. AIM: This study aimed to determine the frequency and indications for transfusion of red blood cell-containing components in the perioperative period in children in the first months of life. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This cohort study included 187 children from the G.N. Speransky Children’s Hospital No. 9. The hemoglobin, hematocrit, and red blood cell levels were studied as well as the volume of intraoperative blood loss, hemodynamic parameters, the presence of hemorrhagic syndrome, and the use of adrenomimetics in the perioperative period. The stage of the perioperative (pre, intra, or post) period at which the transfusion of erythrocyte-containing components was conducted was recorded. Statistical data analysis was performed using the statistical computing environment R 4.3.0. RESULTS: The average age of the children at the time of surgery was 41 (16.5–63) days [5.9 (2.4–9) weeks]. Sixty-four (34.2%) children were in their first month of life, 72 (38.5%) in their second month, and 51 (27.3%) in their third month, and 76 (40.6%) children were premature. The surgeries were emergent and urgent in 102 (54.5%) children and planned in 85 (45.5). The hemoglobin, hematocrit, and erythrocyte levels at which erythrocyte-containing components were transfused were 82 (77–90) g/l, 25% (22%–28%), and 2.8 (2.3–3.0) × 1012/l, respectively. The volume of erythrocyte-containing components was 54.0 (32.9–74.4) ml (10–30 ml/kg/child’s body weight). The need for and duration of artificial pulmonary ventilation in the postoperative period were 31 (72.1%) cases and 48.5 (22.5–190) hours, respectively, in contrast to children who did not receive transfusions of red blood cell-containing components—57 (39.6%) cases and 40 (22–96) hours. The indication for transfusion was anemia of varying degrees; however, 74.4% of children received adrenergic agonists simultaneously with transfusion to stabilize hemodynamics: dopamine monotherapy in 23 (74.2%) and combinations of dopamine and norepinephrine in 8 (25.8%) at 10 (8–12) mcg/kg/min and 0.2 (0.15–0.4) mcg/kg/min, respectively. CONCLUSION: The frequency of use of red blood cell-containing components was 23%. Threshold values for transfusion of erythrocyte-containing components Hb, Ht, and erythrocytes were 82 (77–90) g/l, 25% (22%–28%), and 2.8 (2.3–3.0) × 1012/l, respectively.

Selecting a treatment method for proximal hypospadias in children remains challenging. This systematic review compares the outcomes of treating proximal hypospadias with the Duckett and Bracka techniques. Literature sources published between 2008 and 2023 were searched through PubMed, Google Scholar, and eLibrary using the following keywords in English: “proximal hypospadias,” “repair OR urethroplasty,” and “outcomes OR complications.” For Russian-language sources, the keywords were “proximal hypospadias,” “urethroplasty,” “complications,” “Duckett operation,” and “Bracka operation,” After screening, four full-text articles met the inclusion criteria and were included in this review. Data from 385 patients was analyzed: 218 underwent Duckett repair and 167 underwent Bracka repair. The overall complication rate in the postoperative period was 31.11% and 10.18% for Duckett and Bracka operation, respectively. No study has been performed at a high methodological level. Currently, studies comparing single-stage and staged surgeries for proximal hypospadias are lacking. It is crucial to conduct multicenter or comparative studies that involve closer collaboration between clinics, include a larger number of patients, and have a longer followup period.

Retrocaval location of the ureter in combination with aberrant renal vessels is a rare and complex urinary system malformation that requires careful verification. Currently, the most appropriate method for diagnosing retrocaval ureter is contrast-enhanced computed tomography. With the development of hydronephrosis or ureterohydronephrosis, the patient underwent laparoscopic ureteroplasty. Surgical treatment of retrocaval ureter involves resection of the altered ureter or pelvic–ureter segment with the formation of uretero-ureteral anastomosis or ureteropieloanastomosis anterior to the inferior vena cava. This article presents a successful laparoscopic ureteroplasty in a child with complex urodynamics of the urinary tract. Considering the presence of two levels of ureteral vascular crossing in the clinical example, pyelo-ureteral segment was performed to relocate the ureter in front of the inferior vena cava and aberrant inferior polar vessels. The patient was discharged in satisfactory condition to the outpatient stage of treatment, with subsequent hospitalization in the urological department. Retrocaval location of the ureter in combination with aberrant renal vessels is a rare congenital anomaly that requires prompt examination in a specialized clinic and an individual examination and treatment plan.

The use of robots in pancreatic surgery offers several advantages as an adjunct to laparoscopic surgery, including increased maneuverability of robotic instruments and three-dimensional (3D) visualization. To our knowledge, only two cases of robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy with spleen preservation in children have been reported worldwide. In this study, the patient was an 11-year-old boy who was admitted to a children’s hospital with complaints of recurrent upper abdominal pain. He was diagnosed with pancreatic tumor based on ultrasound findings. It was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging, which revealed a well-defined heterogeneous formation at the border of the body and tail of the pancreas, measuring 2.28 × 2.73 × 2.62 cm with compression of the Wirsung duct. The surgical intervention was performed using a surgical robot VERSIUS (CMR, (UK). Splenic vessels were mobilized carefully, a tourniquet was placed around the body of the pancreas, and it was intersected using a stapler at the border of healthy tissue. The surgical intervention took 340 min, including robot installation time (docking time) of 15 min and a main console time of 325 min. No serious intraoperative complications, such as bleeding or damage to the vascular structures adjacent to the pancreas (branches of the celiac trunk and portal vein), were noted. Histological examination of the tumor confirmed the diagnosis of a solid pseudopapillary tumor. After surgery, the patient’s condition was stable. Recovery proceeded without complications. Magnetic resonance imaging of the abdominal cavity, which was performed 6 months after surgery, revealed no signs of disease recurrence. Robot-assisted surgery is an acceptable alternative to laparoscopic and open surgery for patients with solid pseudopapillary pancreatic tumors because robots offer additional connections, enable closure in improved 3D imaging, increase dexterity when handling instruments, and eliminate of hand tremors.

To our knowledge, only two cases of robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy with spleen preservation in children have been reported worldwide. In this study, the patient was an 11-year-old boy who was admitted to a children’s hospital with complaints of recurrent upper abdominal pain. He was diagnosed with pancreatic tumor based on ultrasound findings. It was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging, which revealed a well-defined heterogeneous formation at the border of the body and tail of the pancreas, measuring 2.28 × 2.73 × 2.62 cm with compression of the Wirsung duct. The surgical intervention was performed using a surgical robot VERSIUS (CMR, (UK). Splenic vessels were mobilized carefully, a tourniquet was placed around the body of the pancreas, and it was intersected using a stapler at the border of healthy tissue. The surgical intervention took 340 min, including robot installation time (docking time) of 15 min and a main console time of 325 min. No serious intraoperative complications, such as bleeding or damage to the vascular structures adjacent to the pancreas (branches of the celiac trunk and portal vein), were noted. Histological examination of the tumor confirmed the diagnosis of a solid pseudopapillary tumor. After surgery, the patient’s condition was stable. Recovery proceeded without complications. Magnetic resonance imaging of the abdominal cavity, which was performed 6 months after surgery, revealed no signs of disease recurrence. Robot-assisted surgery is an acceptable alternative to laparoscopic and open surgery for patients with solid pseudopapillary pancreatic tumors because robots offer additional connections, enable closure in improved 3D imaging, increase dexterity when handling instruments, and eliminate of hand tremors.","PeriodicalId":437552,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Pediatric Surgery, Anesthesia and Intensive Care","volume":"23 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140713471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
