This study presents the case of a 16-year-old victim of a transport accident on a ferry who underwent a surgical treatment. Due to a truck collision, the girl was crushed against the metal structure of the ship and received a severe combined injury: closed craniocerebral injury, moderate brain contusion, linear fracture of the occipital bone on the right, closed chest injury, fracture of 9–11 ribs on the right, closed abdominal injury, rupture of the right kidney, damage to the bladder, retroperitoneal hematoma on the right, closed spinal injury, fracture of the spinous processes of the L4–L5 vertebrae, open fractures of the pelvic bones, and extensive posttraumatic wounds of the right half of the pelvic girdle and hip joints. During the initial hospitalization, the following were performed within 2 days: laparotomy, nephrectomy of a crushed kidney on the right, suturing of the bladder, primary surgical treatment of the wound in the sacrogluteofemoral region on the right and the wound of the left thigh with their primary suturing, and external osteosynthesis of the pelvic bones with a rod-based external fixation device. The early postoperative period was complicated by necrosis of injured soft tissues and a new surgical infection (polyantibiotic-resistant strains of microorganisms), which led to an increase in the size of the wound defect and loss of soft tissues due to their purulent melting. Complex surgical treatment aimed at eliminating surgical infection and transferring the wound process to the regeneration phase included repeated surgical treatments and the use of modern dressings and negative pressure therapy. An extensive wound defect of soft tissues caused by and injury or surgical treatment for purulent–necrotic complication was found in the functionally active zone of the hip joint and in the sacral region, which required the restoration of the skin of these areas. A strategy for surgical repair of a soft tissue wound defect is presented. Nonfree (rotated) blood-supply flaps were used: fasciocutaneous muscle flap based on the musculus tensor fascia lata from the right thigh and gluteal fasciocutaneous flap from the left gluteal region. After multistage surgical treatment, it was possible to replace an extensive wound defect of soft tissues and restore full skin in the hip joint and sacrogluteal region, which enabled avoiding trophic disorders and joint contractures and ensured a satisfactory cosmetic and functional result during 5-year followup.","PeriodicalId":437552,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Pediatric Surgery, Anesthesia and Intensive Care","volume":"1 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141640673","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}

Fifty publications included in the abstract databases PubMed and elibrary for the period from 2017 to 2023 were reviewed. For the analysis, we used articles on the effect of preoperative fasting on indicators of the cardiovascular system and water and carbohydrate metabolism and assessed the course of the perioperative period depending on the duration of refusal of solid food and liquids before surgery. The article presents historical information that formed the basis for the modern paradigm of refusal of solid food and liquids in the preoperative period, especially the negative consequences of prolonged refusal of food in the preoperative period, indicating the main ones, namely, euglycemic ketosis and ketoacidosis, which are common in children. Hypoglycemia due to food refusal before surgery is rare and is not a serious problem in most patients, except in children in the first year of life. In most cases, it has been demonstrated that the time of preoperative fasting significantly exceeds the recommended intervals and amounts to more than 10 hours, and 75% of patients experience a strong feeling of hunger. Infusion of dextrose solutions has not been found to reduce feelings of hunger and thirst before surgery. An increase in preoperative fasting time is often associated with improper organization of the process (35.1%), an increase in surgical time (34.1%), and surgical plan changes (20.9%). It is noted that the optimal volume of liquid that a child can drink before surgery is 3 ml/kg. Data indicates that preoperative fasting can cause arterial hypotension after induction of anesthesia, at the stage of preparing the surgical field. It has been demonstrated that a residual gastric volume of 1.25 ml/kg is a risk factor for aspiration during the induction of anesthesia. There is currently no convincing evidence of the negative effect of preoperative fasting on treatment outcome; however, clearly, the time to abandon clear liquids before elective surgery in children should be minimal.","PeriodicalId":437552,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Pediatric Surgery, Anesthesia and Intensive Care","volume":"15 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141641545","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}

Various operative methods are used in the treatment of children with this pathology; however, reoperation rate remains high. This study aimed to investigate a case of successful robot-assisted laparoscopic ureteroureterostomy and discuss the technical aspects of this procedure and review known series of robotic ureteroureterostomy. The authors retrospectively reviewed the medical history of a child with duplication of the right kidney, accompanied by reflux of urine into the lower segment collecting system. Surgical intervention was performed using robot-assisted technology. Using computed tomography and voiding cystourethrography, duplex kidney with vesicorenal reflux into the lower segment was diagnosed. The surgical technique used was ureteroureterostomy. The donor ureter was divided in the area of the intended anastomosis. Then, a surgical incision was made in the recipient ureter, the length of which was equal to the diameter of the donor ureter. After preparation of the ureters, an end-to-side anastomosis was performed. The operation was successfully performed without intraoperative difficulties or complications and lasted for 140 minutes. The robot installation time (docking time) was 20 minutes, and the main console time was thus 120 minutes. The patient started feeding on the same day after the operation. The drainage tube was removed after a control ultrasound examination on postoperative day 2. The stent remained in the recipient ureter until its removal 6 weeks after surgery. The duration of follow-up was 6 months. The patient was asymptomatic throughout the control period. Repeated ultrasound examination performed after surgery showed a decrease in the anteroposterior diameter of the lower segment pelvis to 5 mm. Blood flow in the upper and lower segments of the right kidney was not impaired. The advantages of the robotic approach, including improved instrument dexterity and 3D visualization, make it a safe and effective alternative to open or laparoscopic surgery in children.","PeriodicalId":437552,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Pediatric Surgery, Anesthesia and Intensive Care","volume":"5 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141640322","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}

Studies on this disease are limited; therefore, several difficulties in the diagnosis and treatment of such patients remain. \u0000AIM: This study aimed to present the experience of treating children with superior mesenteric artery syndrome. \u0000MATERIALS AND METHODS: The treatment results of 45 patients with superior mesenteric artery syndrome was retrospectively studied. The children complained of abdominal pain, nausea, occasional vomiting, belching, bloating, and constipation. The diagnosis was confirmed during a comprehensive examination, including ultrasound, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, X-ray contrast examination, computed tomography, and relaxation duodenography. Conservative therapy was performed in 38 (84,4%) children, and 21 (55,3%) children showed satisfactory results. In case of ineffectiveness of conservative measures (17 cases) or in a decompensated state (7 cases), indications for surgical treatment were provided. \u0000Furthermore, 24 (53,3%) children underwent surgery. Duodenal drainage surgeries were performed in 20 (83,3%) patients with subcompensation of duodenostasis. Of these patients, 10 (41,7%) underwent lower duodenojejunostomy with a switched-off Roux-en-Y loop (Gregory–Smirnov’s operation) and the other 10 (41,7%) underwent anterior mesenteric duodenojejunostomy (Robinson’s operation). Laparotomic access was used in 14 cases (70,0%) and laparoscopic in 6 (30,0%) cases. Owing to decompensation of duodenostasis, the duodenum was excluded from passage by economical resection of the gastric outlet with gastrojejunostomy on a short loop with additional formation of a lower duodenojejunostomy according to Roux in 4 (16,7%) cases. Laparotomic access was used in all cases. \u0000RESULTS: No intraoperative complications were noted. In the early postoperative period, two children developed anastomositis after Robinson’s operation and two patients after Gregory–Smirnov’s operation, which was treated with conservative measures. In long-term followup (up to 15 years), a satisfactory result was achieved in 87.5% of cases. \u0000CONCLUSIONS: Superior mesenteric artery syndrome is a relatively rare cause of chronic duodenal obstruction in children. When selecting patients for surgical treatment, other diseases should be excluded. Surgical correction includes various options for duodenal drainage operations that can be successfully performed using laparoscopic access. In case of decompensation of duodenostasis, it may be crucial to exclude the duodenum from the passage.","PeriodicalId":437552,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Pediatric Surgery, Anesthesia and Intensive Care","volume":"1 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141642879","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}

The child was re-admitted to the pediatric surgical department with complaints of hyperthermia up to 39°C, resumption of periodic abdominal pain, nausea, and increased icterus of the sclera and skin. Laboratory and ultrasound examination indicated biliary and pancreatic hypertension. Choledochal cyst, cholestasis syndrome, acute cholecystopancreatitis was diagnosed. Owing to the existing clinical symptoms and laboratory and ultrasound data, laparoscopic cholecystostomy was urgently performed. Against the background of conservative therapy, within 2 days after laparoscopic cholecystostomy, clinically, laboratory and according to control ultrasound examination, biliary and pancreatic hypertension were stopped. The child underwent cholangiography through a cholecystostomy without additional anesthesia, which revealed a fusiform dilatation of the common hepatic and bile ducts. After 2 weeks of drug treatment against the background of laparoscopic cholecystostomy, the child underwent excision of the common bile duct cyst, and cholecystectomy with hepatic enteroanastomosis on a Roux-en-Y loop. The postoperative period was smooth. No other complaints or complications were noted within 24 months. In the reported case, recurrent obstructive jaundice was caused by a choledochal cyst.
