Modern diagnostic and treatment methods make it possible to establish a preoperative diagnosis of uterine torsion and provide surgical assistance. Thus, the causes of this disease and the scope of surgical treatment must be investigated. This study reports the cases of 20 patients aged 3–17 years with uterine torsion who were treated at the St. Vladimir Children’s City Clinical Hospital between 2017 and 2023. Ultrasonography is a mandatory preoperative screening diagnostic method. All patients underwent laparoscopic surgery. During the postoperative period, magnetic resonance imaging was performed to confirm the diagnosis. Increased ovarian size due to cysts (7), paramesonephric cysts (4), and fixed lateroflexion (6) were identified as predictors of torsion. In 3 (15%) patients, the cause of torsion was unknown. Paramesonephric cysts were resected, and two adnexectomies were performed. After detorsion, 12 (60%) patients underwent fixation of the appendages. A literature search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, eLibrary, and RSCI. A total of 47 articles were analyzed, 58 articles were reviewed, and 39 on the problems of determining predictors of uterine torsion in children and methods of surgical correction were selected. Based on the data obtained, the main disease predictors were clarified. A change in the angle of the uterus (lateroflexion) was found to cause the atypical location of the ovaries, which in turn can lead to torsion of the changed or unchanged appendage. Suggestions have been made regarding the connection between connective tissue dysplasia and uterine lateroflexion in the development of adnexal torsion in childhood. The results confirmed the complexity of the radiological diagnosis of lateroflexion. The scope of the surgical intervention for acute torsion of the uterine appendages was dependent on the etiology of the torsion and the degree of ischemia of the appendage. Various options for detorsion with unilateral and bilateral oophoropexy and without fixation of the injured appendage have been proposed. Removal of uncomplicated paramesonephric formations of the uterine appendages identified during diagnostic laparoscopy is a simple procedure and helps prevent torsion. Thus, puncture of accidentally detected ovarian cysts in patients who have not been examined for tumor markers is deemed inappropriate.

Acute respiratory distress syndrome is one of the main causes of life-threatening complications and deaths in pediatric intensive care units. This study aimed to analyze the current features of epidemiology, risk factors, and outcomes of acute respiratory distress syndrome in children aged 1 months according to the literature. The analysis included 100 publications extracted from eLibrary and PubMed abstract databases. The search was performed using the following keywords: acute respiratory distress syndrome, epidemiology, pediatric, outcome, and control mechanical ventilation. After the initial study of abstracts, 64 articles containing previously published information were excluded from the review. The recommendations of the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference, which were published in April 2023, were taken as the main source. The review presents current definitions, risk factors, and criteria for the severity of acute respiratory distress syndrome in pediatric practice, discusses in detail the features of invasive ventilation and adjuvant therapy, and pays special attention to infusion and transfusion therapy, nutrition, and sedation. One of the sections is devoted to monitoring the patient’s condition, assessing the effectiveness of gas exchange and hemodynamics, and emphasizing the importance of a dynamic assessment of delirium in patients and the readiness for extubation. The recommendations of Pediatric Acute Lung Injury Consensus Conference-2 for the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome in children make it possible to more accurately stratify the severity of the pathological process, identify patients at risk with a high probability of developing this syndrome, and begin timely protective respiratory support to restore lung parenchyma and optimize oxygen delivery and consumption.

The study of congenital dislocation of the knee (CDK) is of significant interest in the context of the possible application of new reduction techniques immediately after birth. The main goal of this initiative is to minimize the consequences of dislocation, ensuring the possibility of normal formation and functioning of joints from the very first stages of life. Materials and methodsA total of 120 patients (194 knees) with congenital dislocation of the knee were examined. The studied patients were divided into a main group - 55 patients (90 knee joints) and a control group - 65 patients (104 knee joints). Children in the main group received treatment according to the method developed by the authors; in the control group, the traditional method of orthopedic correction of CDK was used using a Von Rosen splint and circular plaster casts. The age of the patients in the main group at the start of treatment was Me-28 (Q1-28; Q3-30) hours, the control group – Me-30 (Q1-28; Q3-34.5) hours. ResultsA comparative analysis of the results of treatment in the main and control groups showed that the developed method in contrast to classical technology, allows in 95% of cases to carry out the most accurate correction, ensure restoration of the axial profile of the knee joint and its stability, as well as create conditions for the formation of a harmonious type of growth and development of the lower extremities in adulthood. In the main group, after treatment using improved technology, after 5 years of observation, prevailing excellent indicators for assessing the function of the knee joint (66.7%), pain relief (98.2%), were noted, which was confirmed by data from a clinical study and specialized questionnaire scales. ConclusionsThe developed innovative method increased the effect of treatment as a whole, as well as its long-term outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Although acute hematogenous osteomyelitis is considered a fairly well-studied disease, several articles emphasize that the frequency of diagnostic errors remains quite high. The clinical presentation of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis largely depends on its reactivity and localization. The latter has features of the clinical course in children of different age groups. Osteomyelitis can be difficult to detect because of the variability and nonspecificity of symptoms and physical and laboratory parameters. Rapid diagnosis is crucial for successful disease outcomes because untimely treatment increases the number of complications. Therefore, visualization should be aimed at early diagnosis and, ultimately, successful treatment. AIM: This study aimed to evaluate the informative value of magnetic resonance imaging and multispiral computed tomography (MSCT) in the diagnosis of the intramedullary phase of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis as its earliest stage. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty patients suspected with acute hematogenous osteomyelitis underwent magnetic resonance imaging and MSCT using color mapping techniques and X-ray density assessment. At the final stage of the diagnostic algorithm, osteotonometry was performed. The contents of the bone marrow canal were taken for microbiological and bacteriological studies. RESULTS: In the intramedullary phase of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis, magnetic resonance imaging and MSCT revealed signs of bone marrow edema in 96% of the cases. The sensitivity of magnetic resonance imaging was 96%, the same as that of MSCT; however, the specificity was significantly lower than that of MSCT using the color mapping method and X-ray density assessment, which was 67% and 83%, respectively (p 0.05). DISCUSSION: In recent years, the role of computed tomography in the diagnosis of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis has received considerable recognition in pediatric surgical practice, and MSCT with color mapping and X-ray density assessment in the diagnosis of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis in children has been used relatively recently. Simultaneously, many researchers have reported the high informativeness of MSCT in the diagnosis of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis. CONCLUSIONS: The intramedullary phase of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis according to magnetic resonance imaging and MSCT indicates bone marrow edema as its earliest stage. According to the data of the present study, MSCT using color mapping and X-ray density assessment has high specificity and can be used with MRI as the main method for diagnosing the intramedullary phase of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis.
背景:虽然急性血源性骨髓炎被认为是一种研究相当深入的疾病,但一些文章强调诊断错误的频率仍然很高。急性血源性骨髓炎的临床表现主要取决于其反应性和定位。后者具有不同年龄组儿童临床病程的特点。由于症状、体征和实验室指标的多变性和非特异性,骨髓炎很难被发现。由于治疗不及时会增加并发症的数量,因此快速诊断对疾病的成功治疗至关重要。因此,可视化检查应以早期诊断和最终成功治疗为目标。目的:本研究旨在评估磁共振成像和多螺旋计算机断层扫描(MSCT)在急性血源性骨髓炎髓内期早期诊断中的信息价值。材料与方法:30 名疑似急性血源性骨髓炎患者接受了磁共振成像和 MSCT 检查,检查中使用了彩色图谱技术和 X 射线密度评估。在诊断算法的最后阶段,进行了骨密度测量。提取骨髓管内容物进行微生物学和细菌学研究。结果:在急性血源性骨髓炎的髓内阶段,磁共振成像和 MSCT 显示 96% 的病例有骨髓水肿迹象。磁共振成像的灵敏度为 96%,与 MSCT 的灵敏度相同;但其特异性明显低于 MSCT 的彩色图谱法和 X 射线密度评估,分别为 67% 和 83%(P 0.05)。讨论:近年来,计算机断层扫描在诊断急性血源性骨髓炎中的作用在小儿外科实践中得到了相当程度的认可,采用彩色图谱和 X 射线密度评估的 MSCT 在诊断儿童急性血源性骨髓炎中的应用也相对较晚。同时,许多研究人员也报告了 MSCT 在诊断急性血源性骨髓炎方面的高信息量。结论:磁共振成像和 MSCT 显示,急性血源性骨髓炎的髓内期最早出现骨髓水肿。根据本研究的数据,MSCT 使用彩色图谱和 X 射线密度评估具有较高的特异性,可与 MRI 一起作为诊断急性血源性骨髓炎髓内期的主要方法。

With the advent of traumatic self-defense weapons among Russian civilians (weapons of limited destruction and nonlethal kinetic weapons), several studies on injuries among the adult population have been published in the medical literature. Skull injuries are the most severe, often fatal, injuries. To date, there are only isolated descriptions of such injuries in children. Description of the observation. According to the parents, the 3-year-old boy shot himself in the face with an Osa-4 pistol at home. He did not lose consciousness, and the bleeding was light. He was admitted to the central district hospital, from where he was evacuated by an ambulance team to Children’s City Clinical Hospital No. 9 named after. G.N. Speransky, Moscow. Upon admission, the patient was in a serious condition, conscious, and lethargic, reacted negatively to examination, and had 14 points on the Glasgow coma scale, and his hemodynamics was stable. Local status: In the upper part of the dorsum of the nose, a bullet entry hole was observed in the form of a bruised wound of irregular shape, pronounced swelling in the area of the left orbit, and hematoma of the upper eyelid. X-ray images of the skull showed a shadow of a foreign body (bullet) in the projection of the left orbit and ethmoidal labyrinth. The location and extent of damage were clarified by computed tomography. Under endotracheal anesthesia, a supraorbital trans-eyebrow approach on the left with layer-by-layer tissue dissection along the wound canal exposed a part of the bullet, wedged into the medial wall of the orbit and cells of the ethmoid bone. The bullet was removed, and bone fragments and layer-by-layer sutures were removed. Diagnosis: Gunshot causing a blind craniofacial non-penetrating wound in the dorsum of the nose and left orbit, multiple comminuted fractures of the ethmoid bones and superior and medial walls of the left orbit, contusion of the basal parts of the left frontal region of the brain, blunt trauma OS stage 2, local contusion, and retinal hemorrhage The postoperative period passed without complications. The child received a combination of antibacterial and restorative therapy. Vision was preserved, no neurological disorders were detected, and the cosmetic result was good. The patient was discharged in satisfactory condition under the supervision of an ophthalmologist, neurologist, and maxillofacial surgeon. This observation is presented to demonstrate damage to skull structures from traumatic weapons and will aid in further generalization of the treatment results of this type of wound in children. Prevention of injuries in children from traumatic weapons requires extensive educational work among parents who own these weapons.
随着创伤性自卫武器(有限杀伤武器和非致命动能武器)在俄罗斯平民中的出现,医学文献中发表了一些关于成年人受伤情况的研究。颅骨损伤是最严重的损伤,往往是致命伤。迄今为止,只有个别关于儿童受此类伤害的描述。 观察描述据家长称,3 岁男孩在家中用 Osa-4 手枪朝自己的面部开枪。他没有失去知觉,出血不多。他被送往中心区医院,后由救护车队转送至以......命名的市第九儿童临床医院。G.N. Speransky 命名的市第九儿童临床医院。入院时,患者病情严重,神志清醒,昏睡不醒,对检查反应消极,格拉斯哥昏迷量表评分为 14 分,血液动力学稳定。局部状况:鼻背上部有一个子弹射入孔,呈不规则形状的淤血伤口,左眼眶部位明显肿胀,上眼睑有血肿。头骨的 X 光图像显示,左眼眶和乙状迷路的投影中有异物(子弹)的阴影。计算机断层扫描明确了损伤的位置和程度。在气管内麻醉的情况下,从左侧眶上经眼眉入路,沿伤口管道逐层剥离组织,暴露出子弹的一部分,子弹楔入眼眶内侧壁和乙状骨细胞中。取出了子弹,并清除了骨碎片和逐层缝合线。诊断结果枪伤造成鼻背和左眼眶颅面部非穿透性盲伤,乙状骨、左眼眶上壁和内侧壁多处粉碎性骨折,左侧额叶脑基底挫伤,钝性外伤 OS 2 期,局部挫伤,视网膜出血 术后无并发症。患儿接受了抗菌和修复的综合治疗。视力得以保留,未发现神经系统疾病,美容效果良好。在眼科医生、神经科医生和颌面外科医生的监督下,患者康复出院,情况令人满意。这一观察结果表明了外伤性武器对颅骨结构造成的损伤,有助于进一步推广儿童此类伤口的治疗效果。预防外伤性武器对儿童造成的伤害,需要对拥有这些武器的家长进行广泛的教育工作。

Neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a multifactorial disease of unspecified etiology. The lack of data on etiological factors and the complexity of pathogenetic mechanisms determine the complexity of NEC modeling. The authors involved in the study of the pathogenesis of NEC and the development of current treatments seek to model in the experiment the conditions that occur in clinical practice. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the options for the experimental modeling of neonatal NECs described in the public domain. Thus, more than 50 relevant scientific publications in databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus (publishers Elsevier), and eLibrary (from 2000 to 2022) were reviewed. This paper describes the most current methods of modeling NEC, including in vitro (using cells and cell cultures), in vivo (in laboratory animals such as mice, rats, rabbits, and pigs), and ex vivo (using cadaver material) experiments.
新生儿坏死性小肠结肠炎(NEC)是一种病因不明的多因素疾病。病因数据的缺乏和发病机制的复杂性决定了新生儿坏死性小肠结肠炎建模的复杂性。参与 NEC 发病机制研究和当前治疗方法开发的作者们试图在实验中模拟临床实践中出现的情况。因此,本研究旨在分析公共领域中描述的新生儿 NEC 实验建模方案。因此,研究人员查阅了谷歌学术、PubMed、Scopus(出版商爱思唯尔)和电子图书馆(从 2000 年到 2022 年)等数据库中的 50 多篇相关科学出版物。本文介绍了目前最先进的 NEC 建模方法,包括体外(使用细胞和细胞培养物)、体内(实验动物,如小鼠、大鼠、兔子和猪)和体外(使用尸体材料)实验。

Unplanned extubation is any removal of an endotracheal tube from the airway during mechanical ventilation that is not planned, premeditated, or controlled. The frequency of unplanned extubation is one of the most important indicators of the quality of care in the pediatric intensive care unit, and according to the literature, it ranges from 0.11 to 6.4 per 100 days of mechanical ventilation. Unplanned extubation leads to severe complications, worsens outcomes, and increases treatment costs, which determine the urgency of the problem. The search for relevant publications was conducted in PubMed, Google Scholar, and eLibrary.ru. The review included 37 articles published from June 1997 to July 2023. The articles contained information on the incidence of unplanned extubations in pediatric and neonatal intensive care units, their complications, and associated factors. It also presented measures aimed at improving the quality and safety of medical care and reducing the frequency of unplanned extubations, with an analysis of their effectiveness. No studies have focused on the frequency of unplanned extubations in Russia, which is a good motivator for conducting research on unplanned extubations in the national healthcare system. The authors hope to draw the attention of clinicians and healthcare managers to this problem as one of the criteria for the quality and safety of medical care for children.

The practice of injecting various substances into the tissues of the penis in order to increase its size is found among adult men in different countries. An analysis of domestic and world literature revealed only one publication of a clinical case of treatment of a 16-year-old teenager with penile oleogranuloma. A 13-year-old boy was admitted to the pediatric surgical department with complaints of pain and severe swelling of the penis. According to the patient (found out later), these symptoms appeared 3 days after injecting 4 ml of Vaseline oil with a syringe under the skin of the penis. Swelling and hyperemia of the skin appeared, the next day the temperature rose to 40 °C, dizziness, nausea appeared, there were repeated vomiting and loose stools. The cause of the disease was established only after detailed questioning in the department. Local status: the penis is sharply increased in volume due to pronounced vitreous edema, mainly along the dorsal surface, the skin is hyperemic with dark areas and detachment of the epidermis. Diagnosis: “Necrotizing phlegmon of the penis, condition after injections of Vaseline oil”. After medical preparation, surgery was performed. Under endotracheal anesthesia, a 2 cm incision was made along the dorsal surface of the penis. A turbid liquid of 35–40 ml was released from the wound cavity, drainage was done with rubber drains. After the operation, antibacterial therapy and dressings with hydrophobic ointment were carried out. The general condition of the child returned to normal, the wound was cleaned, a defect measuring 5 × 3 × 0.2 cm was formed. After 2 weeks, plastic surgery was performed according to the Diettel method: the foreskin was cut to the area distal to the granulating wound, the outer and inner leaves of the foreskin were sharply separated, a graft was formed from the outer layer and fixed to the wound. The postoperative period was favorable, healing was by primary intention. The patient was discharged in satisfactory condition on the twenty-fourth day from hospitalization. When examined after 4 months, the patient has no complaints; on the dorsum of the penis there is a normotrophic scar measuring 2 × 3.5 cm, which does not interfere with skin mobility. The introduction of foreign bodies under the skin of the penis, accompanied by serious complications, began to be practiced among adolescents. Therefore, this case report will be of interest not only for pediatric surgeons and urologists, but also for doctors of other specialties who may be approached by patients with changes in the penile area, since a true history cannot always be ascertained.
