Abstract

AIM: to assess, by a questionnaire, the level of children’s satisfaction relating to three informative cards, including an original nursery rhyme, administered to the patient before a medical procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We created three types of specific informative cards, relating to three medical topics, with the double role function: informing the child before the medical procedure and distracti ng him/her through an original nursery rhyme read aloud by the authors . To assess the level of children's satisfaction relating to the cards, we administered to the patients a satisfaction questionnaire. RESULTS: According to children's satisfaction, the cards resulted funny and useful. CONCLUSION: The cards can be considered a feasible and applicable original funny technique of information and distraction for surgical children.

Abstract

Pediatric hydronephrosis may correspond to very different clinical situations, ranging from fully benign reversible dilatation to severe obstructive nephropathy. The genetic research is difficult, mainly because the condition is probably polygenic and the embryology of the urinary system is very complex and depends on a multifaceted interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Molecular biology has gained new insights in the complicated urinary system and in the mechanisms of obstructive nephropathy. Some mediators (tumor growth factor, tumor necrosis factor, renin angiotensin system, etc.) could be considered molecular markers of obstruction and it has been proposed to introduce them in clinical decision making, in order to make an accurate selection of patients needing surgical correction. Scintigraphy has been a standard procedure in the management of pediatric hydronephrosis for decades and has been used in many clinical studies designed to evaluate the role of selected molecular markers in clinical settings. The relationships between scintigraphic parameters and molecular mediators seems promising, in particular for the evaluation of the Reanin Angiotensin System, which plays many roles in the natural history of pediatric hydronephrosis. Angiotensin up-regulation is a turning point in many pediatric hydronephrosis and can be unveiled by captopril scintigraphy, which allows a timely diagnosis of obstruction, before irreversible parenchymal injury and loss of renal function.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Arterial or venous homografts are frequently implanted for vascular reconstruction in orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). When fresh vascular homografts (VH) from the same donor were not available, VH from another donor preserved at 4 degrees C in Terasaki (Ter) solution (modified lymphocyte culture medium) were used. METHODS: The clinical results after implantation of Ter-stored VH versus fresh VH in the revascularization of pediatric OLT were studied retrospectively. Short- and long-term follow-up of vascular patency was carried out by doppler ultrasonography in each case. A histological and bacteriological study of nonimplanted VH stored at 4 degrees C in saline (Sal), Ter and University of Wisconsin (UW) solutions for various time periods (days 0-28) was also undertaken. RESULTS: Between 1989 and 1996, 21 iliac arteries and 21 iliac veins preserved in Ter solution (mean preservation time: 8 days; range 1-26) and 100 fresh VH (68 arteries and 32 veins) (preservation time: 8 hr, range 4-21) were used in pediatric OLT. Thrombosis rates were 0 of 21 for stored arteries vs. 7 of 68 (10%) for fresh arteries (NS) and 3 of 21 (14%) for stored veins vs. 3 of 32 (9%) for fresh veins (NS). Actuarial graft survival rates were similar in both groups. Histological analysis of stored, nonimplanted VH invariably showed endothelial destruction within 24-48 hr after procurement. The bacteriological study showed contamination rates of 14 of 25 (56%) for Sal-stored VH, 5 of 25 (20%) for UW, and 1 of 19 (5%) for Ter (Sal vs. UW and Sal vs. Ter: P<0.01; UW vs. Ter: NS). CONCLUSIONS: Ter-preserved cadaveric VH could be safely used in OLT despite early destruction of endothelium.

Abstract

The oral bioavailability of Sandimmun can be impaired by cholestasis, external biliary diversion, and diarrhea. We report two cases of pediatric liver transplant recipients who experienced chronic rejection and diarrhea secondary to proximal bowel resection. These conditions resulted in poor oral absorption of Sandimmun; the children were converted to the new oral microemulsion formulation Neoral, which significantly improved oral absorption, allowing intravenous cyclosporine weaning and patient discharge. Comparative pharmacokinetic studies were performed in both cases, and the relative Neoral/Sandimmun bioavailabilities were 32.9 and 5.4, respectively. Accordingly, Neoral may constitute to good alternative to ensure the effectiveness of oral cyclosporine administration, particularly in liver-transplanted children with severe cholestasis or shortened small bowel.

Abstract

Objective: To achieve hepatic portal revascularisation and decompression of extrahepatic portal hypertension in children with cavernoma and obstruction caused by idiopathic portal vein thrombosis. Design: Selected cases. Setting: Teaching hospitals, Belgium and Italy. Subjects: 11 children who weighed between 5.9 and 54 kg (2 emergencies) with symptomatic extrahepatic portal hypertension. Intervention: Interposition of venous autograft between the superior mesenteric vein and the distal (umbilical) portion of the left portal vein. Main outcome measures: Improvements in symptoms and endoscopic appearance after operation. Results: 2 bypasses had to be redone because they stenosed; all 11 were patent at the time of writing (median follow-up 6 months, range 1-32 months). Conclusion: The bypass effectively relieved symptoms of extrahepatic portal hypertension by restoring normal hepatic portal blood flow. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
