"Primary Posterior Tracheopexy at Time of Esophageal Atresia Repair Significantly Reduces Respiratory Morbidity" Authors: Somala Mohammed, Ali Kamran, Shawn Izadi, Gary Visner, Leah Frain, Farokh R. Demehri, Hester F. Shieh, Russell W. Jennings, Charles J. Smithers, Benjamin Zendejas Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00565-1/abstract Purpose Esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula (EA/TEF) is often associated with tracheobronchomalacia (TBM), which contributes to respiratory morbidity. Posterior tracheopexy (PT) is an established technique to treat TBM that develops after EA/TEF repair. This study evaluates the impact of primary PT at the time of initial EA/TEF repair. Methods Review of all newborn primary EA/TEF repairs (2016–2021) at two institutions. Long-gap EA and reoperative cases were excluded. Based on surgeon preference and preoperative bronchoscopy, neonates underwent primary PT (EA + PT Group) or not (EA Group). Perioperative, respiratory and nutritional outcomes within the first year of life were evaluated. Results Among 63 neonates, 21 (33%) underwent PT during EA/TEF repair. Groups were similar in terms of demographics, approach, and complications. Neonates in the EA + PT Group were significantly less likely to have respiratory infections requiring hospitalization within the first year of life (0% vs 26%, p = 0.01) or blue spells (0% vs 19%, p = 0.04). Also, they demonstrated improved weight-for-age z scores at 12 months of age (0.24 vs −1.02, p < 0.001). Of the infants who did not undergo primary PT, 10 (24%) developed severe TBM symptoms and underwent tracheopexy during the first year of life, whereas no infant in the EA + PT Group needed additional airway surgery (p = 0.01).

Cecilia Gigena "Reparación tardía versus temprana de la hernia inguinal en bebés prematuros: una revisión sistemática y un metanálisis" Autores: Candy SC Choo, Yong Chen y Merrill McHoney Artículo completo: https://gcmd.co/3uqGGUH Objetivos Evaluar los resultados clínicos de la herniotomía en recién nacidos prematuros sometidos a reparación temprana versus tardía, los factores de riesgo de complicaciones e identificar el mejor momento para la cirugía. Métodos Se realizaron búsquedas en las bases de datos Medline, Embase y Central desde el inicio hasta el 25 de enero de 2021 para identificar publicaciones que compararan el momento de la reparación de la hernia inguinal neonatal entre la intervención temprana (antes del alta de la primera hospitalización) y la intervención tardía (después del alta de la primera hospitalización). Los criterios de inclusión fueron recién nacidos prematuros diagnosticados con hernia inguinal durante el ingreso a la unidad de cuidados intensivos neonatales. Los resultados se analizaron mediante un metanálisis de efectos fijos y aleatorios (RevManv5.4). Resultados De los 721 artículos encontrados, seis estudios se incluyeron en el metanálisis. Los pacientes del grupo inicial tenían menores probabilidades de desarrollar encarcelamiento [odds ratio (OR) 0,43, intervalo de confianza (IC) del 95 % 0,34–0,55, I2 = 0 %, p < 0,001]; pero mayor riesgo de complicaciones respiratorias posoperatorias (OR 4,36, IC 95% 2,13–8,94, I2 = 40%, p < 0,001). No se informaron diferencias significativas en la tasa de recurrencia (OR 3,10, IC 95 % 0,90–10,64, I2 = 0 %, p = 0,07) y la tasa de complicaciones quirúrgicas (OR 0,94, IC 95 % 0,18–4,83, I2 = 0 %, p = 0,94) entre los grupos tempranos y retrasados.

Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is increasingly used in adolescents internationally. However, to our knowledge, there are no randomised trials examining the currently most used surgical techniques. Our aim was to evaluate changes in BMI and secondary health and safety outcomes after MBS. Methods: The Adolescent Morbid Obesity Surgery 2 (AMOS2) study is a randomised, open-label, multicentre trial done at three university hospitals in Sweden (located in Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Malmö). Adolescents aged 13-16 years with a BMI of at least 35 kg/m2, who had attended treatment for obesity for at least 1 year, passed assessments from a paediatric psychologist and a paediatrician, and had a Tanner pubertal stage of at least 3, were randomly assigned (1:1) to MBS or intensive non-surgical treatment. Exclusion criteria included monogenic or syndromic obesity, major psychiatric illness, and regular self-induced vomiting. Computerised randomisation was stratified for sex and recruitment site. Allocation was concealed for both staff and participants until the end of the inclusion day, and then all participants were unmasked to treatment intervention. One group underwent MBS (primarily gastric bypass), while the other group received intensive non-surgical treatment starting with 8 weeks of low-calorie diet. The primary outcome was 2-year change in BMI, analysed as intention-to-treat.

We study the role of tracheobronchopexy, as an alternative to tracheostomy, in EA patients with severe life-threatening TBM. Methods: We reviewed EA patients who underwent tracheobronchopexy for blue spells, BRUEs, and failure to wean PPV or extubate from February 2013 to September 2021 at two institutions. Patient characteristics, surgical techniques, and respiratory outcomes were reviewed. Results: 80 EA patients (most Gross type C 92.5 %) underwent 91 tracheobronchopexies at median age 6 (IQR 3-14) months for blue spells/BRUEs (53 %), PPV (21 %), and ventilator dependence (26 %). On preoperative dynamic bronchoscopy, most (90 %) demonstrated complete airway collapse. Surgical approach for tracheobronchopexy was posterior (73 %), anterior (23 %), and simultaneous posterior and anterior (4 %). Tracheobronchopexy included thoracic trachea alone (58 %), trachea and bronchi (41 %), and bronchi alone (1 %). At latest follow up of median 39 (IQR 14-64) months, there were no recurrent blue spells/BRUEs (p < 0.001) and significantly reduced PPV and ventilator dependence (p < 0.001). Nearly all patients (n = 75, 94 %) avoided tracheostomy. Mortality was 5 %, one 30-day operative mortality and three long-term mortalities related to underlying comorbidities. Conclusions: In EA patients with severe life-threatening TBM, tracheobronchopexy significantly reduces blue spells/BRUEs, PPV, and ventilator dependence, and avoids tracheostomy.

In these settings, diverting ileostomy (DI) is theorized to have a protective effect on the new anastomosis. However, analyses have been performed only in single-institution series and the true impact of performing DI at the time of IPAA on postoperative outcomes is unclear. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study using claims data from the International Business Machines (IBM) MarketScan® database. Patients were sorted to the DI group if they carried a CPT code for ostomy closure within 6 months of index procedure. We examined demographics, preoperative risk factors, and performed regression analysis to compare 30-day postoperative outcomes between groups. Results We identified 317 patients ≤18yo that underwent IPAA procedure and met inclusion criteria from 2000 to 2019. Of these, 238 patients were assigned to the IPAA + DI cohort and 79 patients were assigned to the IPAA cohort. Adverse outcomes were comparable between cohorts. Surgical site infection (SSI) rates between IPAA and IPAA + DI were 10.1 vs. 11.3% (p = 0.67). Rates of intra-abdominal drainage procedures were 3.8 vs. 2.1% (p = 0.39). The rates of 30-day readmissions were 16.5 vs. 19.3% (p = 0.39). Creation of a DI was not associated with higher odds of 30-day readmission (OR = 1.4, p = 0.31).

Este estudio evaluó la relación entre la crioablación y los resultados clínicos del procedimiento de Nuss. Métodos Se realizó una revisión retrospectiva de las historias clínicas de un solo centro de pacientes sometidos al procedimiento de Nuss con crioablación intercostal entre diciembre de 2017 y agosto de 2021. Se resumieron los datos demográficos, la evolución hospitalaria y las complicaciones posoperatorias. Para evaluar la evolución de los resultados a lo largo del tiempo, se comparó el primer trimestre (Q1) de pacientes con crioablación con el último trimestre (Q4). Resultados Durante 45 meses se realizaron 350 procedimientos de Nuss con crioablación. La edad media al momento de la operación fue de 15,7 ± 2,3 años con un índice de Haller promedio de 5,4 ± 4,2. El tiempo operatorio medio fue de 136 ± 40,5 minutos. En promedio, los pacientes utilizaron 2,8 ± 2,5 OME/kg de opioide en el hospital con una LOS de 2,7 ± 1,1 días. Los pacientes del Q4 fueron dados de alta 1,3 días antes (p<0,05) que los pacientes del Q1, y el 80% de los pacientes del Q4 fueron dados de alta el segundo día posoperatorio frente al 23% en el Q1 (p<0,05). Los pacientes del cuarto trimestre recibieron un 74% (p<0,05) menos opioides en el hospital y un 21% (p<0,05) menos al alta.

Las guías pediátricas recomiendan la admisión con laboratorios de seguimiento, incluso para lesiones de bajo grado. Métodos: Se utilizaron conjuntos de datos de dos grandes estudios observacionales prospectivos multicéntricos para analizar una cohorte de niños (edad, <17 años) con IO de grado I a III después de un traumatismo abdominal cerrado. Se excluyeron los niños con lesiones de víscera hueca. Los pacientes se dividieron en (a) aquellos con o sin otras lesiones mayores (OMI) (lesión cerebral traumática, hemotórax o neumotórax, fractura pélvica, operaciones ortopédicas o neuroquirúrgicas urgentes) y (b) con lesiones de grado I o II versus grado III. Los resultados incluyeron IA (transfusión, angiografía, operación abdominal) y disposición (unidad de ingreso y duración de la estancia). Resultados: Hubo 14.232 niños inscritos en los dos estudios, y 791 pacientes tenían un SOI (5,6%). Después de excluir a los pacientes con lesiones de víscera hueca y IO de grado superior, se incluyeron 517 pacientes con IO de grado I a III, y 262 de estos no tenían OMI. Entre los pacientes sin OMI, ninguno de los 148 pacientes con SOI de grado I o II se sometió a IA, mientras que solo 3 de 114 pacientes con lesiones de grado III se sometieron a IA (3 transfusiones/1 angioembolización). Los tres tenían hemoperitoneo; dos de los tres tenían un órgano adicional con una lesión de grado II.

Derikx  ABSTRACT Introduccion Los colon por enema son realizados frecuentemente previos al cierre de ostomia para detectar estenosis distales al ostoma. Si no son tratadas las estenosis pueden causar oclusion que puede requerir re-cirugia. Sin embargo, el valor del colon por enema no esta claro. Por eso buscamos evaluar la precision diagnostica del colon por enema para la deteccion de estenosis en ninos con ostomas.  Metodos  Ninos ( ≤3 anos) tratados con ostomas entre 1998 y 2018 fueron incluidos retrospectivamente. Los criterios de STARD fueron seguidos. Pacientes tratados por malformaciones anorectales y aquellos que fallecieron previo al cierre de ostoma fueron excluidos. La identificacion quirurgica de estenosis durante la cirugia de cierre de ostoma o una recirugia dentro de los tres meses del cierre fueron utilizadas como Gold Standard. La sensibilidad, especificidad, Valor predictivo positivo (VPP) y valor predictivo negativo (VPN) y el area debajo de la curva reflejaron la precision diagnostica. Resultados En 224 pacientes incluidos, se encontraron estenosis durante el cierre en un 10%, de los cuales un 95% habia sido tratado por enterocolitis necrotizante (NEC). El colon por enema fue realizado en un 68% de los pacientes y detecto el 92% de las estenosis. En la cohorte general, la sensibilidad fue 100%, especificidad 98%, VPP 88%, VPN 100% mientras que el area bajo la curva fue de 0.98.

Derikx    ABSTRACT Introduction Contrast enemas are often made prior to stoma reversal in order to detect distal intestinal strictures distal of the stoma. If untreated these strictures can cause obstruction which might necessitate redo-surgery. However, the value of contrast enemas is unclear. Therefore, we aim to evaluate the contrast enema’s diagnostic accuracy in detecting strictures in children with a stoma. Methods  Young children ( ≤3 years) treated with a stoma between 1998 and 2018 were retrospectively included. The STARD criteria were followed. Patients treated for anorectal malformations and those that died before stoma reversal were excluded. Surgical identification of strictures during reversal or redo- surgery within three months was used as gold standard. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and area under the curve (AUC) reflected diagnostic accuracy. Results In 224 included children, strictures were found during reversal in 10% of which 95% in patients treated for necrotizing enterocolitis. Contrast enema was performed in 68% of all patients and detected 92% of the strictures. In the overall cohort, the sensitivity was 100%, specificity 98%, PPV 88% and NPV 100% whilst the AUC was 0.98. In patients treated for NEC, the sensitivity was 100%, specificity 97%, PPV 88% and NPV 100% whilst the AUC was 0.98.

Given the high failure rates of the hepatoportoenterostomy operation, some have advocated for primary liver transplantation as a superior treatment approach. The aim of this study was to compare outcomes of pediatric candidates with biliary atresia listed for primary vs. salvage liver transplantation. Methods The SRTR/OPTN database was retrospectively reviewed for all children with biliary atresia listed for liver transplant between March 2002 and February 2021. Candidates were categorized as primary liver transplant if they had not undergone previous abdominal surgery prior to listing and salvage liver transplant if they had. Salvage transplants were further categorized as early failure if listed within the first year of life or late failure if listed at an older age. Results 3438 children with biliary atresia were listed for transplant during the study period, with 15% of them listed for a primary transplant, 17% for salvage transplant after early failure, and 67% after late failure. Recipients of salvage liver transplant with late failure had lower bilirubin levels and were less critically ill as demonstrated by MELD/PELD scores and hospitalization status. Correspondingly, these recipients had higher waiting list and graft survival, though this did not remain statistically significant after adjustment in multivariable models. There were no differences in waiting lis https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6442 2023-03-08T04:00:09+00:00 5 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9157 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/9157/thumbnail_10711_2024-09-12_09-44-28.jpg Validation of the Clavien-Madadi Classification for Unexpected Events in Pediatric Surgery: A Collaborative ERNICA Project Omid Madadi-Sanjani, Joachim F.

Granströmc, Emrah Aydin, Stavros Loukogeorgakish, Martin Lacher, Soeren Wiesner, Anja Domenghino, Pierre-Alain Clavien, Annika Mutanen, Simon Eaton, Benno M. Ure Background: The Clavien-Madadi classification is a novel instrument for the assessment and grading of unexpected events in pediatric surgery, based on the Clavien-Dindo classification. The system has been adjusted to better fit the pediatric population in a prospective single-center study. There is a need now to validate the Clavien-Madadi classification within an international expert network. Methods: A pediatric surgical working group created 19 case scenarios with unexpected events in a multi-staged process. Those were circulated within the European Reference Network of Inherited and Congenital Anomalies (ERNICA) and surgeons were instructed to rate the scenarios according to the Clavien-Madadi vs. Clavien-Dindo classification. Results: 59 surgeons from 12 European countries completed the questionnaire. Based on ratings of the case scenarios, the Clavien-Madadi classification showed significantly superior agreement rates of the respondents (85.9% vs 76.2%; p < 0.05) and was less frequently considered inaccurate for rating the pediatric population compared to Clavien-Dindo (2.1% vs 11.1%; p = 0.05). Fleiss’ kappa analysis showed slightly higher strength of agreement using the Clavien-Madadi classification (0.74 vs 0.69). Additionally, intraclass correlation coefficient was slightly higher for the Clavien-Madadi compared to the Clavien-Dindo classification (ICCjust 0.93 vs 0.89; ICCunjust 0.93 vs 0.89). More pediatric surgeons preferred the Clavien-Madadi classification for the case scenarios (43.0% vs 11.8%; p = 0.002) and advantages of the Clavien-Madadi were confirmed by 81.4% of the surgeons.

Symptomatic or persistant pseudocysts may require surgical treatment; laparoscopic and endoscopic modalities have been described, we describe a mixed approach. Case presentation: We present the case of a 6-year-old boy with pancreatic pseudocyst secondary to pancreatitis after blunt abdominal trauma. The patient presented with abdominal pain, abdominal distension and vomiting. Computed tomography revealed a giant pancreatic pseudocyst. We performed an anterior laparoscopic transgastric approach. A stapled cystogastrostomy was created under laparoscopic and endoscopic vision. Control upper gastrointestinal endoscopy was performed 6 months after without pathological findings. Discussion: We believe this mixed minimally invasive approach is highly feasible and reproducible in the treatment of pancreatic pseudocysts in children.

Despite recent evidence supporting LCBDE utility in children, there has been hesitation to adopt this surgery first (SF) approach over ERCP first (EF) due to perceived technical challenges. We compared rates of successful stone clearance during LCBDE between adult and pediatric patients to evaluate if pediatric surgeons could anticipate similar rates of successful clearance. Methods: A multicenter, retrospective review of pediatric (<18 years) and adult patients with choledocholithiasis managed from 2018 to 2024 was performed. Demographic and clinical data were obtained. Rate of successful duct clearance with LCBDE was compared. Surgical and endoscopic complications (infections, bleeding, pancreatitis, bile leak) were also compared. Results: 724 patients, 333 (45.9%) pediatric and 391 (54.0%) adults, were included. The median age of pediatric vs adult patients was 15.2 years [13.1, 16.6] vs 55.5 years [34.1, 70.5], respectively. Of these, 201 (60.4%) pediatric vs 169 (43.2%) adult patients underwent SF, p < 0.001. LCBDE was attempted in 84 (41.7%) pediatric vs 140 (82.8%) adults, p = 0.002. LCBDE success was higher in pediatric vs adult patients (82.1% vs 71.4%, p = 0.004). Complications rates were similar however, pediatric patients who underwent EF had higher endoscopic complications (9.1% vs 3.6%, p = 0.03). Conclusion: LCBDE is highly successful in children vs adults with no increased surgical complications. This data, coupled with the limited ERCP access for children, supports that LCBDE is an equally effective tool for managing cho https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10122 2025-03-27T08:05:06+00:00 channel#pediatric_surgery lbcde Alex halpern Pediatric Endoscopy Common bile duct exploration Choledocholithiasis bile duct bile stone surgery pediatric surgery Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9240 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9240/thumbnail_10795_2024-10-03_11-08-13.jpg 2024 Fetal Care Center Frontiers in Fetal Neurology Day 1 - Hour 1 Q&A Dr. Charu Venkatesen, Dr. Jesse Skoch, and.

Comprehensive studies comparing RR and thoracoscopic repair (TR) are lacking. We aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of RR and TR for EA. Methods: A retrospective multicenter study was conducted on 155 EA neonates undergoing RR (79 patients) or TR (76 patients) between August 2020 and February 2023 using propensity score matching (PSM). Asymmetric port distribution and step-trocar insertion techniques were applied during RR. Demographics and surgical outcomes were compared. Results: After matching, 63 patients (out of 79) in RR group and 63 patients (out of 76) in TR group were included. There were no significant differences in short-term outcomes between two groups, except for longer total operative time (173.81 vs. 160.54 min; P<0.001) and shorter anastomotic time (29.52 vs. 40.21 min; P<0.001) in RR group. Compared with TR group, the RR group had older age at surgery (8.00 vs. 3.00 d; P<0.001), but a comparable pneumonia rate. More importantly, the incidence of anastomotic leakage (4.76% vs. 19.05%, P=0.013), anastomotic stricture (15.87% vs. 31.74%, P=0.036) within one year postoperatively, and unplanned readmission (32.26% vs. 60.00%, P=0.030) within two years postoperatively were lower in RR group than in TR group. Conclusions: RR is a technically safe and effective option for EA patients.

An interim analysis was performed of a multi-institutional, prospective, observational study in neonates undergoing laparoscopic pyloromyotomy during which bilateral inguinal canals were evaluated. Methods Infants under 4 months undergoing laparoscopic pyloromyotomy were enrolled at 8 children's hospitals. The presence of a PPV was evaluated and measurements recorded. Patients with a PPV are undergoing annual phone follow-up to 18 years of age. Interim analysis was performed. Results In a cohort of 610 patient, 80 did not have a PPV examined, 4 had consent issues and were excluded, leaving 526 patients. Of these, 433 (82%) were male, median age 1.2 months (IQR 0.9, 1.6), median weight 3.89 kg (IQR 3.4, 4.46), and EGA 39 weeks (IQR 37, 40). There were 283 PPVs, 132 bilateral (47%), 116 right (41%), and 35 left (12%). Patients with a PPV were significantly younger (1.1 months (IQR 0.9, 1.5) vs 1.3 months (IQR 0.9, 1.7), p=0.02), weighed less (3.76kg (IQR 3.35, 4.26) vs 3.9kg (IQR 3.4, 4.5) p=0.03) and had a significantly lower EGA at birth (38 weeks (IQR 37, 40) vs 39 weeks (IQR 38, 40) p=0.003). Of 246 eligible infants, 208 (85%) responded to at least one annual follow-up.

Methods: At age 6 months, boys with congenital unilateral cryptorchidism were randomised to surgery at 9 or 39 months of age and followed to 16 years in parallel with boys with spontaneous postnatal descent. Ultrasound was done at 11 and 16 years to determine testicular volume. The ratio of the initially undescended testis to its scrotal counterpart was used to assess testicular growth. Results: At age 16, the ratio was lower (p < 0.00) in the late group compared to the early group. At 16 years, the spontaneously descended testes were significantly smaller than their scrotal counterparts but larger than the operated groups (early p < 0.01 and late p < 0.00). Conclusion: Our data at 16 years show that orchidopexy at 9 months results in better testicular growth compared to 3 years but did not reach the corresponding volumes of their scrotal counterparts. This indicates that earlier surgery is beneficial to testicular growth. At age 16, the postnatally descended testes were not only larger than the surgically treated testes but also exhibited impaired testicular growth. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8942 2024-07-29T16:46:31+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5858 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/5858/thumbnail_5858_2022-09-14_18-00-11.jpg Best of the Best Gen Surg - How Far is Too Far Cost-effectiveness Analysis of Regionalized Rectal Cancer Surgery - Dr. Leeds Listen to Ira Leeds gave his presentation of "How Far is Too Far Cost-effectiveness Analysis of Regionalized Rectal Cancer Surgery" at the first ever Best of the Best in General Surgery event. spaces/17/content/5858/file_7276_2022-09-14_18-00-11.mp4 2022-09-14T18:00:11+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1954 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1954/thumbnail_2801_2019-11-26_16-00-30.jpg Minimally Invasive Repair of Pectus Carinatum This video appears in a new pediatric surgery textbook, Clinical Pediatric Surgery: A Case-Based Interactive Approach," by Dr. Sherif Emil.

For prepubertal female patients at high risk of treatment-related infertility, upfront storage of ovarian tissue is increasingly being recognised as standard of care. No surgical guidelines exist to ensure best practice technique. We reviewed current UK practice to assess surgical management. Methods: A ten-item, anonymous multiple-choice survey was distributed to the lead surgeons in all paediatric centres in England/Wales undertaking ovarian procurement for cryopreservation. Results: There are currently 18 centres in England and Wales that provide ovarian procurement for cryopreservation. Responses were received from 100% of the invited paediatric surgical oncology centres in England and Wales. 39.3% of participants stated that in their centre 20 cases are undertaken per year. In 64% of centres surgery is performed by a paediatric surgeon with interest in oncology or fertility preservation. The majority of cases were performed by a Consultant or Senior Registrar (89%). Regarding the surgical technique, 82% of respondents stated they gain access to the abdominal cavity using standard 3-port laparoscopy, 7% use single-port laparoscopy. Most frequently used energy devices for ovary/ovarian tissue resection were Ligasure™ (44%) and Harmonic Scalpel™ (18.5%). 96% of respondents perform a total oophorectomy, 1 respondent stated they perform a hemi-oophorectomy. 53% stated they place the ovary into a retrieval bag only if the ovary was too big for easy removal via the camera port, 28.5% always place it in a retrieval bag. Most surgeons use the umbilical port site for retrieval (82%).

Artificial intelligence… Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell! Hosts: Em Tombash, MD, Todd Ponsky, MD, Ramy Shaaban MD, PhD Artificial intelligence is the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computers. AI requires a foundation of specialized hardware and software for writing and training machine learning algorithms. We will talk about machine learning in future episodes, so stay tuned! In general, AI systems work by ingesting large amounts of labeled training data, analyzing the data for correlations and patterns, and using these patterns to make predictions about future states. AI programming focuses on three cognitive skills: learning, reasoning and self-correction. Learning processes focus on acquiring data and creating rules for how to turn the data into actionable information. The rules, which are called algorithms, provide computing devices with step-by-step instructions for how to complete a specific task. While reasoning processes focus on choosing the right algorithm to reach a desired outcome, self-correction processes are designed to continually fine-tune algorithms and ensure they provide the most accurate results possible. Couple of advantages of AI are - Being good at detail-oriented jobs, - Reducing time for data-heavy tasks, - Delivering consistent results. AI has changed our world and made our lives more convenient and interesting. Some of the many uses of AI you may know include: - Self-driving cars. Machine learning and visual recognition are used in autonomous vehicles to help the car understand its surroundings and be able to react accordingly. These cars can learn and adapt to traffic patterns, signs, and more. - Voice recognition. Most people know to call out for Siri when they need directions, or to ask their smart home Alexa to set a timer. - Streaming services learn about your preferen https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5872 2022-09-19T18:00:07+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1046 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/1046/thumbnail_1046_2019-01-11_16-41-50.jpg Focus on Technique- Laparoscopic Pediatric Hernia Repair 2015 Dr. Todd Ponsky introduces the event focusing on Laparoscopic Pediatric Hernia Repair. Recently, the non-mesh laparoscopic pediatric hernia repair in children and adolescents has gained immense popularity. This event, "Focus on Technique: Laparoscopic Pediatric Hernia Repair",  is designed to provide practicing surgeons what they need to know in order to perform this procedure on their own and will focus on the fine points of the technique. We will present many of the different options available for the non-mesh lap hernia repair and then focus on the specific steps of the lap-assisted, percutaneous technique as described by Darius Patkowski,  evidence-based discussions, review of edited surgical videos, and discussion of surgical tips and tricks. Some important topics covered in this video include discussion of the traditional open high ligation hernia repair, the laparoscopic approach, incarceration, recurrence after open repair of indirect hernia, recurrence rate of lap inguinal hernias, infertility risks, various laparoscopic techniques, Ck Yeung approach, subcutaneous endoscopically assisted ligation, Patkowski's surgical technique, laparoscopic pediatric inguinal hernia repair, adolescent cases, and laparoscopic approach advantages.  https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/96f5b605-1646-4b04-8bb2-e02753175bd7/AppleHLS1/f1a9f8d1a7da85a73d3ec9ca48a20384.m3u8 2019-01-11T16:41:50+00:00 10 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5871 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/5871/thumbnail_5871_2022-09-19_18-00-07.jpg Telemonitoring - Transforming Healthcare, Episode 6 We’re back with another new technology that we believe will transform healthcare. Telemonitoring… Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell! Hosts: Em Tombash, MD, Todd Ponsky, MD Telemonitoring is the use of information technology to monitor patients at a distance. This monitoring involves recording vital signs, for example, blood pressure and pulse, and transmitting this information electronically which allows the patient's medical team to track and monitor a patient's vitals on a regular basis, then use this data to identify signs of deterioration, intervene promptly and prevent admission to hospital. With COVID-19, healthcare systems had to rethink the optimal delivery of healthcare services and this has increased the demand for general medicine providers like internal medicine, family medicine, and emergency medicine. https://journals.lww.com/journalpatientsafety/Fulltext/2021/12000/Inpatient_Respiratory_Arrest_Associated_With.5.aspx Before the pandemic, data suggested that routinely monitoring hospitalized patients with continuous pulse oximetry and heart rate devices was associated with reduced mortality. In this study, which involved more than a hundred thousand patient discharges, early recognition of hypoxemia and respiratory depression were largely responsible for the observed decrease in mortality. https://bmcprimcare.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12875-018-0814-6 Here is another article where, “The focus group included 181 patients and telemonitoring was valued by those who found it empowering and convenient. This, combined with initial professional concern that increased surveillance may create dependency led to the development of a more patient-led service.” https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34586072/ Home telemonitoring has emerged as a potential solution to reduce these costs, but the evidence is mixed.

The Practice Committee also presents a set of guidelines for locum tenens practice. These recommendations highlight safe practice and quality care that protects the patient as well as the pediatric surgeon by offering best practice standards, defining optimal resources and establishing parameters by which hospitals and locum tenens agencies should abide. These guidelines are intended to foster discussion and contract negotiation as well as inform decision making for a) pediatric surgeons considering locum tenens opportunities, b) host organizations (hospitals and practices) seeking the coverage of a pediatric surgeon, and c) locum tenens companies vetting both surgeons and hospitals for appropriateness of such coverage. This Position Statement and foundational set of guidelines align with APSA's Vision (all children receive the highest quality surgical care) and Mission (to provide the best surgical care to our patients and families by supporting an inclusive community through education, discovery and advocacy). spaces/1/content/9537/file_11093_2024-12-17_18-24-19.mp4 2024-12-17T18:24:19+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9502 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9502/thumbnail_11058_2024-12-09_08-30-09.jpg Laura Glaganski, MD & Jagroop (Rupi) Parikh - 2024 Fetal Care Center Navigating Perinatal Care for Trisomy 13 & 18 In this presentation, Drs.

Ehrlich.   Question:  Does the application of high-risk guidelines allow for safe and appropriate administration of venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis following pediatric trauma? Design, Setting, and Participants:  This cohort study was completed between October 2019 and October 2022 in 8 free-standing pediatric hospitals designated as American College of Surgeons level I pediatric trauma centers. Participants were pediatric trauma patients younger than 18 years who met defined high-risk criteria on admission. It was hypothesized that cVTE would be safe and reduce the incidence of VTE. Findings:  In this cohort study applying high-risk criteria to guide VTE prophylaxis, more than half of patients received prophylaxis without any documented bleeding complications. Increased time to prophylaxis initiation was significantly associated with increased likelihood of developing VTE. spaces/1/content/9421/file_10977_2024-11-13_14-24-08.mp4 2024-11-13T14:24:08+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9278 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9278/thumbnail_10833_2024-10-10_12-29-13.jpg 2024 Fetal Care Center Frontiers in Fetal Neurology Day 2 - Dr. Kara Markham Dr. Kara Markham speaks on "Neurologic implications of fetal cytomegalovirus infection: Can treating the pregnant patient alter the fetal disease?" on Day 2 of the Frontiers in Fetal Neurology 2-day interactive webinar series. spaces/17/content/9278/file_10833_2024-10-10_12-29-13.mp4 2024-10-10T12:29:13+00:00 1 fetalday2 channel#live_event_content Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9269 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9269/thumbnail_10824_2024-10-10_07-29-27.jpg 2024 Fetal Care Center Frontiers in Fetal Neurology Day 2 - Dr. Darren Orbach Dr. Darren Orbach speaks on the advances in therapeutics for fetal neurological and neurosurgical disorders on Day 2 of the Frontiers in Fetal Neurology 2-day interactive webinar series. spaces/17/content/9269/file_10824_2024-10-10_07-29-27.mp4 2024-10-10T07:29:27+00:00 channel#live_event_content Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9143 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/9143/thumbnail_10697_2024-09-11_01-24-55.jpg The Outcome of Purse-string Versus Conventional Wound Closure Techniques in Patients Undergoing Stoma Reversal: A Randomized Controlled Trial Assad Ameer, Muhammad Bilal Mirza, Nabila Talat Background: Patients undergoing stoma reversal may experience surgical site infections and poor scarring. A purse-string closure approach may lower the incidence of surgical site infections due to its inherent ability to drain wound exudates. This study compared the frequency of surgical site infections and the cosmetic outlook of the scar among patients undergoing stoma reversal with linear and purse-string skin closure techniques. Setting and duration: Department of Pediatric Surgery, University of Child Health Sciences Lahore with a duration of one year (June 2021 to June 2022). Methods: This randomized controlled trial (TCTR20210417001) was conducted with IRB approval. A total of 124 patients undergoing stoma reversal were randomly assigned to two groups (62 in each): Group A received conventional linear skin closure, while Group B received purse-string wound closure. The study evaluated surgical site infection, cosmetic outcome, and length of stay. Results: Both groups had similar age, gender ratio, indication for surgery, and length of stay. The purse-string group had a significantly lower incidence of SSI (38.7 % vs. 14.5 %; p = 0.002) and better scar quality (Manchester scar scale showed 'good' scar quality in 63 % of patients vs. 22.6 % in the linear closure group, p-value <0.0001). Conclusion: The purse-string technique for skin closure resulted in fewer surgical site infections and improved scar appearance. spaces/1/content/9143/file_10697_2024-09-11_01-24-55.mp4 2024-09-11T01:24:55+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/4587 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/4587/thumbnail_5824_2021-10-28_12-02-13.jpg Update Course Rewind: Spontaneous Pneumothorax 2021 We've seen a lot of recent updates about the management of primary spontaneous pneumothoraces.

These babies are vulnerable to developing necrotising enterocolitis (NEC). Their presentation is often atypical, both clinically and radiologically. Optimal diagnostic strategies are not yet known. We report our experience of abdominal ultrasound scanning (AUSS) to clarify its role. Methods All babies in a single neonatal surgical centre born <24 weeks gestation undergoing AUSS for suspected NEC from January 2015 to January 2023 were included. We compared abdominal ultrasound findings with plain radiographs and correlated these to intraoperative findings. Results Thirty-nine babies born <24 weeks gestation were diagnosed with NEC during the study period, and of these seventeen had an AUSS and formed the study cohort. Twelve underwent laparotomy at which NEC was confirmed, and the remaining five were managed non-operatively. Abdominal radiograph findings were: Paucity of gas (12), gaseous dilatation (2), paucity of gas with proximal dilatation (1), pneumatosis (1), and lucencies over the liver (1). In twelve cases who underwent surgery, AUSS findings were (more than one possible): Complex ascites (6), inflamed bowel (4), aperistaltic bowel (3), mass/collection (4), pneumatosis (1). All had NEC confirmed at laparotomy. In five cases who did not progress to surgery, findings were: Simple free fluid (2), pneumatosis (2), inflamed bowel (1), aperistaltic bowel (1). None of these cases subsequently underwent surgery or died of complications of NEC. Conclusion AUSS is a useful imaging modality for NEC in babies born <2 https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8672 2024-05-30T11:09:41+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8546 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8546/thumbnail_10085_2024-04-24_07-14-24.jpg Update Course Rewind: Management of Chronic Pancreatitis 2023 We are back with another Update Course Rewind video from the Update course in Pediatric Surgery 2023.

La mayoría son laceraciones de tejidos blandos y lesiones dentales fácilmente evidentes en el examen clínico. Las fracturas que requieren intervención quirúrgica son raras. Faltan pautas para la utilización de la TC maxilofacial en niños. Presumimos que la TC de cabeza es una herramienta de detección útil para identificar a los niños que requieren una TC facial específica. Métodos:  Realizamos una revisión retrospectiva multicéntrica de niños menores de 18 años con lesiones faciales cerradas que se sometieron a TC de la cara y la cabeza desde 2014 hasta 2018 en cinco centros de trauma pediátrico. Se excluyeron las lesiones penetrantes y las mordeduras de animales. Se revisaron los hallazgos de imágenes y examen físico, así como las intervenciones por fractura facial. Las fracturas clínicamente significativas fueron aquellas que requirieron una intervención durante la estancia hospitalaria o dentro de los 30 días posteriores a la lesión. Resultados: Se identificaron 322 niños con fracturas faciales. La TC de cabeza pudo identificar una fractura facial en el 89% (287 de 322) de los niños con fracturas faciales vistos en una TC facial dedicada. Las fracturas nasales con desplazamiento mínimo, las fracturas mandibulares y las lesiones dentales fueron las fracturas faciales más comunes que no se identificaron en la TC de la cabeza.

This study aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of surgery for asymptomatic patients, as well as the factors influencing the symptoms of this group of patients. Methods An institutional database was sampled for congenital pulmonary airway malformation patients. Patients were divided into the symptomatic group and the asymptomatic group. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis selected patients in each group to compare perioperative outcomes. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the potential influences on symptomatic lesions. Results The asymptomatic group had better perioperative results than the symptomatic group, including shorter operating times (119.39 ± 49.42 min vs 100.73 ± 23.09 min, P = 0.031), shorter postoperative mechanical ventilation (2 h [0.5–46] vs 1 h [0.5–5], P = 0.002), shorter chest tube durations (4d [2-29] vs 3d [2-10], P = 0.007), and shorter postoperative hospital stays (10d [6–36] vs 8d [6-16], P  0.05). Age (p = 0.037), postnatal diagnosis (p = 0.018), and maximum cyst diameter (p = 0.032) were found to be independent variables associated with symptomatic lesions by multivariable logistic regression. Conclusions Patients with congenital pulmonary airway malformation appear to have better perioperative outcomes before the beginning of symptoms. Symptomatic pulmonary lesions were associated with age, postnatal diagnosis, and maximum cyst diameter. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7843 2023-12-27T16:00:07+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7754 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7754/thumbnail_9269_2023-12-01_18-00-07.jpg Approaches to Biliary Atresia Care at Cincinnati Children's Full Event Drs. Aki Asai, Alex Miethke, Anna Peters, MD, PhD, Greg Tiao, MD & Alex Bondoc, MD, & Amy Taylor, MD present on Approaches to Biliary Atresia Care. spaces/17/content/7754/file_9269_2023-12-01_18-00-07.mp4 2023-12-01T18:00:07+00:00 12 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7753 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7753/thumbnail_9268_2023-12-01_18-00-07.jpg Approaches to Biliary Atresia Care at Cincinnati Children's - Amy Taylor, MD - Successes in collaborative management of the post-kasai patient Amy Taylor, MD presents “Successes in collaborative management of the post-kasai patient” at the first ever Approaches to Biliary Atresia Care at Cincinnati Children’s. spaces/17/content/7753/file_9268_2023-12-01_18-00-07.mp4 2023-12-01T18:00:07+00:00 5 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7752 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7752/thumbnail_9267_2023-12-01_18-00-07.jpg Approaches to Biliary Atresia Care at Cincinnati Children’s - Anna Peters, MD, PhD - Racial disparities in the early diagnosis of biliary atresia  Anna Peters, MD, PhD presents “Racial disparities in the early diagnosis of biliary atresia” at the first ever Approaches to Biliary Atresia Care at Cincinnati Children’s. spaces/17/content/7752/file_9267_2023-12-01_18-00-07.mp4 2023-12-01T18:00:07+00:00 3 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7751 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7751/thumbnail_9266_2023-12-01_18-00-07.jpg Approaches to Biliary Atresia Care at Cincinnati Children's - Aki Asai, MD, PhD - Recent discoveries on pathogenesis of biliary atresia Aki Asai, MD, PhD presents "Recent discoveries on pathogenesis of biliary atresia" at the first ever Approaches to Biliary Atresia Care at Cincinnati Children's. spaces/17/content/7751/file_9266_2023-12-01_18-00-07.mp4 2023-12-01T18:00:07+00:00 2 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6897 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6897/thumbnail_8353_2023-07-20_08-00-14.jpg Laryngeal Clefts Dr. Michael Rutter is and ENT surgeon and the director of the Aerodigestive Center at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.

The present study aimed to evaluate the experiences and outcomes of children with SBS managed by a multidisciplinary intestinal rehabilitation programme in a tertiary paediatric centre. Methods: A retrospective single-centre analysis of all paediatric patients with a clinical diagnosis of SBS between 2001 and 2022 was performed. Clinical outcomes and their predictors were extracted and analysed. Results: Of the 64 children included in the study, 43 (67%) had extensive necrotising enterocolitis. The median bowel length was 45 cm (interquartile range (IQR) ¼18e65) and 18.9% (IQR ¼10e28.5) of the expected length based on age. Over a mean follow-up period of 8.9 years, 57 patients (89%) survived, and 50 (78%) weaned off PN. The presence of intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) (OR ¼6.375,p ¼0.02) and patients managed before the introduction of fish oil-based PN in 2007 (OR ¼5.895, p ¼0.001) were significant predictors of mortality. There was an overall improvement in survival over time (p ¼0.003). Ultrashort bowel length was not associated with significantly higher mortality (OR ¼1.1, p ¼0.65) but was a poor prognostic factor for weaning off PN (OR ¼3.57, p ¼0.004). Among all patients who weaned off PN, two had bowel lengthening procedures and one received a glucagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2) analogue. Conclusions: A multidisciplinary intestinal rehabilitation programme offers a comprehensive approach for patients with SBS and has been shown to be effective with favourable outcomes. Improvements in the choice of PN and the development of new treatment strategies potentially improved the survival and enteral autonomy of SBS patients spaces/1/content/10027/b3d1af68aab0fdbbadd366899cd5580e.mp4 2025-03-18T20:08:26+00:00 1 channel#pediatric_surgery Lizzy Lee short bowel syndrome multidisciplinary intestinal rehab JPS pedsurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6382 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6382/thumbnail_6382_2023-02-09_04-00-12.jpg Update Course Rewind: Gastroschisis Feeding protocols 2022 In this session we highlighted the Key points of the talk that Drs. Jason Fraser, Beth Rymeski, and Steven Lee give at the Update Course 2022.  Hope you enjoy it, if you like it give us a like or leave a comment!  And remember this Rewind was made by Cincinnati Children's Hospital to spread information to the world Articles discussed: Minimizing Variance in Gastroschisis Management Leads to Earlier Full Feeds in Delayed Closure The role of feeding advancement strategy on length of stay and hospital costs in newborns with gastroschisis Use of a Gastroschisis Feeding Guideline to Improve Standardization of Care and Patient Outcomes at an Urban Children's Hospital Primary Closure versus Bedside Silo and Delayed Closure for Gastroschisis: A Truncated Prospective Randomized Trial Does Use of a Feeding Protocol Change Outcomes in Gastroschisis?

New article you should know selected by the Chilean Society of Pediatric Surgeons, summarized by Cecilia Gigena "Staged laparoscopic orchiopexy of intra-abdominal testis: Spermatic vessels division versus traction? A multicentric comparative study" Authors: Valeska Bidault-Jourdainne, Nathalie Botto, Matthieu Peycelon, Elisabeth Carricaburu, Pauline Lopez, Arnaud Bonnard, Thomas Blanc 6, Alaa El-Ghoneimi, Annabel Paye-Jaouen Full article: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38310033/ Abstract Background: Staged laparoscopic management of intra-abdominal testes using pedicular section is recognized as gold standard technique, successful in 85 % of cases for scrotal testicular position with less than 10 % testicular atrophy. Recently, Shehata proposed a new technique without pedicular division for these testes, using spermatic vessels traction, but did not provide a comparative study of the two techniques. Objective: To evaluate the laparoscopic spermatic pedicular traction (Shehata technique, ST) for the treatment of intra-abdominal testis, as an alternative to gold standard pedicular section (2-stage Fowler-Stephens, FS). Study design: Intra-abdominal testes of 129 patients in two tertiary pediatric urology centers were managed laparoscopically (2011-2019) either by 2-stage FS orchidopexy or ST according to the surgeon preference. Testicular position and size were statistically compared. Results: A total of 147 testes were pulled down by 80 ST and 67 FS, including 18 bilateral cases. Median (IQR) age at surgery was 24.2 (15.6-46.4) months (ST) and 18.3 (13.1-38.2) months (FS) (p = 0.094). Scrotal pulling-down of the testis was performed after a median (IQR) period of 2.3 (1.6-3.4) months (ST) and 6.1 (4.7-8.3) months (FS), respectively (p < 0.005). Although ST had collapsed in 17 cases (21.3 %), only one (1.3 %) redo procedure was required. After a median (IQR) follow-up of 22 (12-40) and 19 (8.75-37) months (p = 0.59), the testis was in the scro spaces/1/content/8708/file_10255_2024-06-06_08-19-14.mp4 2024-06-06T08:19:14+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10404 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/10404/70985473b0cd6b10e0646bef21a271f6.jpg Vacuum Bell Therapy for Pectus Excavatum: Long-term Experience at a Single Center Shelby Aughtman, Charles Hehman, Letitia Janssen, Jamie Golden, Michael J. Goretsky, Robert J. Obermeyer Aim: To evaluate factors associated with excellent correction in pectus excavatum patients undergoing vacuum bell therapy (VBT). Methods: A single-institution retrospective chart review was performed November 2012–April 2023 to assess corrections of patients who underwent VBT. Patient demographics, presentation, and results were collected. Excellent correction was defined as complete correction or >100 % improved from an average standard chest depth of 0.51 cm. Data are reported using odds ratio & confidence intervals; and paired t-test comparison. A p-value of <0.05 was regarded as significant. Results: VBT was utilized in 431 patients with 278 patients included and 153 excluded due to loss of follow-up or incomplete data. Of those included, 89 % were male. There were 31 patients with excellent corrections (11 %) and 247 non-excellent corrections. Initial chest depth < 1.5 cm and chest wall flexibility remain important predictors of positive outcome (p=0.008 and < 0.001, respectively). Excellent correction was statistically more likely in patients aged 8 to 12.9 (OR = 2.2, p = 0.039). Surgical correction following VBT was performed in only 15.5 % (42 of 278) of our patients, none of which were in the group with an excellent correction. Conclusion: Excellent correction for pectus excavatum via VBT was achieved in a small proportion of patients, with improved outcomes in those initiating therapy at a younger age, with a mild defect, and with increased chest wall flexibility. These data may be used to help determine those more likely to achieve complete correction from a nonsurgical approach and guide decisions towards treatment methods. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10404 2025-04-24T08:35:47+00:00 1 channel#pediatric_surgery Alex halpern pediatric surgery journal of pediatric surgery jps Pectus excavatum Vacuum bell therapy Chest wall deformities some4pedsurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6344 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/6344/thumbnail_6344_2023-02-06_16-00-12.jpg BOB Ped Surg 2023 - Fulvia Del Conte, IPEG - Presentation Watch Fulvia Del Conte, MD, present her presentation on "Embolization vs surgical treatment in pulmonary sequestration: preliminary results of a retrospective multicenter study." https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6344 2023-02-06T16:00:12+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9227 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/9227/thumbnail_10782_2024-10-02_07-44-18.jpg Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Society Recommendations for Neonatal Perioperative Care Mercedes Pilkington, Gregg Nelson, Brandon Pentz, Tyara Marchand, Erin Lloyd, Priscilla P.

Chiu, David de Beer, Nicole de Silva, Scott Else, Annie Fecteau, Stefano Giuliani, Simon Hannam, Alexandra Howlett, Kyong-Soon Lee, David Levin, Lorna O’Rourke, Lori Stephen, Lauren Wilson, Mary E. Brindle Importance: Neonates requiring surgery are often cared for in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Despite a breadth of surgical pathology, neonates share many perioperative priorities that allow for the development of unit-wide evidence-based Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) recommendations. Observations: The guideline development committee included pediatric surgeons, anesthesiologists, neonatal nurses, and neonatologists in addition to ERAS content and methodology experts. The patient population was defined as neonates (first 28 days of life) undergoing a major noncardiac surgical intervention while admitted to a NICU. After the first round of a modified Delphi technique, 42 topics for potential inclusion were developed. There was consensus to develop a search strategy and working group for 21 topic areas. A total of 5763 abstracts were screened, of which 98 full-text articles, ranging from low to high quality, were included. A total of 16 recommendations in 11 topic areas were developed with a separate working group commissioned for analgesia-related recommendations. Topics included team communication, preoperative fasting, temperature regulation, antibiotic prophylaxis, surgical site skin preparation, perioperative ventilation, fluid management, perioperative glucose control, transfusion thresholds, enteral feeds, and parental care encouragement. Although clinically relevant, there were insufficient data to develop recommendations concerning the use of nasogastric tubes, Foley catheters, and central lines.

Methods: Infants having a primary laparotomy for NEC were randomized intraoperatively to PA or ST if the operating surgeon thought that both were viable treatment options for that patient. The primary outcome (duration of parenteral nutrition [PN]) was evaluated by Cox regression. Results: Eighty patients were recruited from 2010 to 2019. Infants undergoing anastomosis finished PN significantly earlier than patients undergoing stoma (hazard ratio PA vs. ST 2.38, 95% CI 1.36-4.12 p = 0.004). There was no difference in mortality between the two groups (PA 4/35 vs. ST 8/38 p = 0.35) or in the rate of complications requiring further unplanned operations (p = n.s.). Multiple intestinal complications were more frequent in the stoma group compared to the anastomosis group (ST 12/26 vs. PA 5/31, p = 0.02, Fisher's Exact test). Conclusion: At laparotomy for NEC, when there is no disease distal to resected intestine, primary anastomosis should be performed as it enhances the recovery from NEC, reduces the risk of multiple intestinal complications and does not increase adverse outcomes. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10427 2025-04-29T08:18:55+00:00 2 channel#pediatric_surgery mortality enterocolitis nutrition pedsurg Lizzy Lee surgery SoMe4PedSurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6947 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6947/thumbnail_6947_2023-07-20_08-00-22.jpg Laparoscopic Excision of duodenal web This video helps provide instructions around Laparoscopic Excision of duodenal web spaces/2/content/6947/file_8403_2023-07-20_08-00-22.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:22+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3588 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3588/thumbnail_3588_2021-01-25_22-00-56.jpg VATS H-Type Fistula Repair - Technique Dr. Steven Rothenberg describes his technique for thoracoscopic repair of an H-type tracheoesophageal fistula.  Key steps to the procedure include opening of the apical pleura with a vessel sealer, identification of the esophagus and the trachea, development of a plane between the esophagus and trachea below the fistula, development of a retro-fistula plane, retraction of the fistula with a 2-0 silk suture, division of the fistula with a stapler, coverage of the esophageal staple line with apical fat, and closure of the pleura. https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/55ee74ba-a8a7-4dec-a039-5ed82f649b93/AppleHLS1/21499c595e162c6a9d40b36c48136c10.m3u8 2021-01-25T22:00:56+00:00 1 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3586 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3586/thumbnail_3586_2021-01-25_22-00-54.jpg Robotic-Assisted Release of the Median Arcuate Ligament for Pediatric MALS Presented by Alejandra M Casar Berazaluce, MD; Alexander Gibbons, MD; and Jaimie D Nathan, MD from Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center at the IPEG - International Pediatric Endosurgery Group 28th Annual Congress for Endosurgery in Children. Scientific Video Session l: Coolest Tricks Moderators: Carroll Harmon, MD & Holger Till, MD Median Arcuate Ligament Syndrome is a chronic abdominal pain syndrome characterized by epigastric pain, nausea, and vomiting that leads to anorexia and weight loss. It is a diagnosis of exclusion, hypothesized to be caused by compression of the celiac artery and celiac plexus by the median arcuate ligament at the junction of the right and left diaphragmatic crura. Due to the presence of an identifiable mechanical constriction, the management of MALS is surgical. In this video, we present the key features of the robotic approach for its release in the pediatric population. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3586 2021-01-25T22:00:54+00:00 1 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8709 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/8709/thumbnail_10256_2024-06-06_08-24-06.jpg Orquiopexia laparoscópica por etapas de testículo intraabdominal: ¿División de vasos espermáticos o tracción?

Cecilia Gigena "Supresión ácida profiláctica para prevenir estenosis anastomóticas después de la cirugía de atresia esofágica: una revisión sistemática y un metanálisis" Autores: Thomas Wyllie, Eniola Folaranmi, Prabhu Sekaran, W John Watkins, Mallinath Chakraborty Artículo completo: https://gcmd.co/3vi4oCE Introducción La estenosis anastomótica es una complicación posoperatoria común de la reparación de la atresia esofágica ± fístula traqueoesofágica (OA/TOF). La enfermedad por reflujo gastroesofágico ácido (ERGE) se considera un factor en la formación de estenosis y, según una guía consensuada, se recomienda medicación para suprimir el ácido en el posoperatorio. El objetivo fue investigar si los pacientes que fueron tratados profilácticamente con medicamentos supresores de ácido tuvieron una incidencia reducida de estenosis en comparación con aquellos que no los recibieron. Métodos Se realizó una revisión sistemática de los estudios, buscando en múltiples bases de datos sin restricciones de idioma o fecha. Múltiples revisores evaluaron de forma independiente la elegibilidad de los estudios y la calidad de la literatura. El resultado primario fue la formación de estenosis anastomótica, con resultados secundarios de ERGE, fuga anastomótica y esofagitis. El metanálisis se realizó utilizando un modelo de efectos aleatorios y los resultados se expresaron como un odds ratio (OR) con intervalos de confianza (IC) del 95%. Resultados No se identificaron estudios aleatorios sobre el tema. Se incluyeron en el análisis doce estudios observacionales y diez informaron el resultado primario. La evaluación de la calidad mostró un alto riesgo de sesgo en varios artículos, principalmente debido a los métodos no objetivos de evaluación de la estenosis esofágica y a la naturaleza no prospectiva ni aleatoria de los estudios. En total, se evaluaron 1.395 pacientes, de los cuales 753 recibieron medicación supresora del ácido. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7830 2023-12-21T00:00:06+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13727 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/i-hwEY8KKE8/hqdefault.jpg SAGES/ALACE Symposium: Integrating New Technologies, Old Tricks, and Operative Approaches Natan Zundel, M.D. & Jeffrey L.

Our patient is a 43-day old male with a vascular ring comprised of a right side dominant double aortic arch. A 4mm camera port was placed in the 5th intercostal space posterior to the tip of the scapula and two 3mm working ports placed in the 7th intercostal space in the posterior axillary line and 3rd intercostal space inferior to the axilla. The left sided ductus arteriosus and recurrent laryngeal nerve were identified. The ductus arteriosus was clamped with stability of vitals prior to transection. The left aortic arch was dissected and the atretic segment clamped without change in vitals. The posterior port was upsized and the left aortic arch was transected using a 5mm stapler, releasing the vascular ring without any complications. spaces/2/content/3262/file_4216_2020-11-04_06-00-08.mp4 2020-11-04T06:00:08+00:00 7 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3238 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3238/thumbnail_4192_2020-10-28_05-00-07.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Thoracoscopic lingulectomy for a Prenatally diagnosed CPAM in a 3 month old infant IPEG 2020 Annual Meeting - Top Abstract Steven Rothenberg, MD; Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children This video demonstrates the technique for an anatomic segmental resection of the lingula in a 4 kg 3 month old infant. A CPAM was diagnosed on prenatal ultrasound at 26 weeks and measured 2.2x2.8x3.5 cm. Repeat US at 36 weeks showed the size to be 3.9x2.6x3.8. The baby was delivered at 36 weeks and was asymptomatic. A CT scan at 3 months of age showed a CPAM that appeared to be limited to the lingula. The infant was taken to the OR and a anatomic lingulectomy was planned using 3 ports (4,3,5mm). An anatomic segmental resection was performed. The surgery took 90 minutes and a chest drain was left overnight and removed the following morning. The infant was discharged on the second post-operative day without complication. Anatomic segmentectomy is feasible and safe and may be appropriate in some cases of CPAM as a lung sparing alternative.

Despite this, the small surgical working space associated with younger children poses potential technical limitations and resultant apprehension for the adoption of robotic surgery in the pre-adolescent and younger age groups. We present a single institutional series of robotically-assisted surgical procedures performed in small children, including median acute ligament release, transthoracic ganglioneuroblastoma resection, and the smallest single site robotic cholecystectomy to date. Patients were 3-4 years of age with weights between 14.3-22 kg. All patients were discharged to home as expected without complications. Although, robotic surgery may present some limitations with the currently available port and instrumentation sizes, in carefully selected patients it continues to prove valuable, even for very young patients.

The aims of this study were to characterize kidney injuries among children who sustain BRT, evaluate risk factors for urine leaks, and describe the negative impact of urinoma on patient outcomes and resource consumption. Methods: A retrospective review was performed of 347 patients, younger than 19 years, who presented with BRT to a single American College of Surgeons-verified Level I Pediatric Trauma Center between 2005 and 2020. Frequency of and risk factors for urine leak after BRT were evaluated, and impact on patient outcomes and resource utilization were analyzed. Results: In total, 44 (12.7%) patients developed urine leaks, which exclusively presented among injury Grade 3 (n = 5; 11.4%), Grade 4 (n = 27; 61.4%), and Grade 5 (n = 12; 27.3%). A minority of urine leaks (n = 20; 45.5%) were discovered on presenting CT scan but all within 3 days. Kidney-specific operative procedures (nephrectomy, cystoscopy with J/ureteral stent, percutaneous nephrostomy) were more common among urine leak patients (n = 17; 38.6%) compared with patients without urine leaks (n = 3; 1.0%; p = 0.001). Patients with urine leak had more frequent febrile episodes during hospital stay (n = 24; 54.5%; p = 0.001) and showed increased overall 90-day readmission rates (n = 14; 33.3%; p < 0.001).

To implement this principle is used the special constructed needle. The lumen of the needle contains two ligatures of different colors, one of which is an endless loop. The other is a hernial ligature located in the lumen of the needle.  Using a single puncture of the preperitoneal space, a complete bypass of the neck of the hernial sac is performed. The ends of the hernial ligature is extracted to the outside so that through one puncture hole two ends of the hernial ligature come out on the skin. The hernial ligature is tied outside so that hernial knot is located preperitoneally.

This is an excellent example of the benefits of robotic surgery with its superior visualization and articulating instruments facilitating a complex dissection and anastomosis. The patient is an 8 year-old girl who presented with right upper quadrant pain and weight loss and was found on ultrasound and MRCP to have a type IV choledochal cyst. She did well postoperatively without any complications. A brief review of the relevant literature is also included. As compared to hepaticojejunostomy, hepaticoduodenostomy for reconstruction after excision of type IV choledochal cyst is well supported in the literature. It has been shown to have shorter operative times, a lower risk of postoperative bile leak, and decreased fat malabsorption, without an increased risk of cholangitis.

This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to summarize the evidence for the association between early PD after cardiac surgery and postoperative outcomes. Data sources: MEDLINE, Embase, and PubMed from 1981 to November 1, 2021. Study selection: Observational studies and randomized trials reporting on early PD after pediatric cardiac surgery. Data extraction: Random-effects meta-analysis was used to estimate the pooled odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% CIs for postoperative mortality and pooled mean difference (MD) (95% CI) for duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU length of stay. Data synthesis: We identified nine studies from the systematic review, and five were considered suitable for meta-analysis. Early initiation of PD after cardiac surgery was associated with a reduction in postoperative mortality (OR, 0.43 (95% CI, 0.23-0.80); number of estimates = 4). Early commencement of PD shortened duration of mechanical ventilation (MD [95% CI], -1.09 d [-1.86 to -0.33 d]; I2 = 56.1%; p = 0.06) and intensive care length of stay (MD [95% CI], -2.46 d [-3.57 to -1.35 d]; I2 = 18.7%; p = 0.30], respectively. All three estimates had broad 95% prediction intervals (crossing null) denoting major heterogeneity between studies and wide range of possible study estimates in similar future studies. Overall, studies reporting on the effects of early PD included only a subset of infants undergoing cardiac surgery (typically high-risk https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7220 2023-09-27T18:00:07+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11377 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/11377/thumbnail_11377_1_1768253243140.jpg Beyond ChatGPT_ AI Tools You’re Not Using (But Should) - Vail, CO Live from the 18th Annual International MIS and Surgical Innovation in Infants & Children ConferenceJoin Dr. Todd Ponsky for a hands-on AI workshop designed for busy medical professionals who want to work smarter, not harder.This isn’t a lecture—it’s a show and tell.

The patient was a 7y old girl with known background of Peutz Jeger’s Syndrome who presented via clinic with intermittent upper abdominal pain and non-bilious vomiting. She was dehydrated and acidotic pre-operatively due to profuse vomiting. A D1 duodenal polyp causing obstruction was seen on duodenoscopy. The base was 2.5 cm and too large to snare endoscopically. We performed a robotic enterotomy and polypectomy. 3 robotic,1 balloon accessory ports and a liver retractor were placed. The robot allowed much easier manipulation of the duodenum, retrieval and eversion of the polyp from within the lumen, and allowed easy closure of the enterotomy with 2 layer running suture. The patient had excellent uneventful recovery with reintroduction of enteral fluids 48h after the surgery and discharge on the forth post-operative day. This technique should be considered for further cases.

Myeloschisis is a more severe form, lacking a protective sac.Surgical Approach:The fetus is accessed through a midline laparotomy. Under ultrasound guidance, trocars are placed and the uterus is insufflated with warmed CO₂ to enable fetoscopic visualization.Placode Dissection & Dura Closure:Using precise instruments, the placode is carefully dissected and reconstructed. The dura is closed with a running, non-absorbable suture to reduce long-term tension and allow for potential untethering.Skin Closure Challenges:If the defect is too large, a synthetic graft is sutured to healthy skin margins to promote future epithelialization.Postoperative Management:After fetal repair, amniotic fluid is replaced, and all entry points are carefully closed to complete the procedure.This video demonstrates the technical precision and multidisciplinary coordination required for fetoscopic MMC repair—advancing outcomes for affected infants before birth spaces/1/content/11326/file_11326_1_1766156755462.mp4 2025-12-19T15:05:55+00:00 fetoscopic intrauterine myelomeningocele MMC open neural tube defect utero spinal cord spina bifida trocars ultrasound Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10898 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/10898/thumbnail_10898_1_1756388699127.jpg 2025 Pediatric Surgery Update Course - Updates in Central Line Management On August 26th, the largest Pediatric Surgery course in the world each year was held, where top hospital experts from around the US will discuss this year’s changes in practices and innovation.

Quartiles were defined based on surgeons' annual case volumes for each year: Lower Volume = Q1-3 and Higher Volume = Q4. Descriptive statistics and bivariate regression were utilized for analysis.Results: For all repair techniques, there were 207 surgeons accounting for 548 surgeon-years with 8519 operations. For all repairs, Higher Volume was defined as > 22 operations per year. On regression analysis, presence of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt, peritoneal dialysis, laparoscopic technique, and surgery performed by a lower volume surgeon were associated with recurrence risk. For open repairs, there were 193 surgeons, 465 surgeon-years, and 5726 operations. Higher Volume was defined as >18 operations per year. On regression analysis, history of an omphalocele, a connective tissue disorder, and tracheostomy dependence contributed to recurrence risk, while surgeon volume did not.

With data showing that every 10-day delay in treatment worsens outcomes by 20%, early detection is essential for improving native liver survival. Key Highlights: Importance of Early Diagnosis: Performing a Kasai procedure before 45 days significantly improves patient outcomes. MMP-7 as a Biomarker: Validated in international studies, MMP-7 is proving to be a powerful diagnostic tool. Challenges in Diagnosis: Distinguishing BA from other neonatal cholestasis conditions remains complex.

Although evidence remains limited, thoracoscopic repair (TR) is thought to reduce morbidity compared to conventional open repair (COR), with potential benefits including earlier recovery, reduced pain, improved cosmesis, and fewer musculoskeletal sequelae. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare the incidence of musculoskeletal deformities following EA repair via TR versus COR, emphasizing their long-term clinical implications.MethodThe protocol for this review was registered in PROSPERO(CRD42024576044). A comprehensive literature search was conducted across Ovid Medline, Cochrane, PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, SCOPUS, and Google scholar from inception to January 2025. The primary outcomes assessed were scoliosis, rib anomalies (including deformity, fusion, and adhesions), chest wall anomalies, and scapula alata. Statistical analysis was performed using Review Manager (RevMan) version 5.4.ResultsFour retrospective studies comprising 283 patients (TR: 96; COR: 187) were included. TR was associated with significantly lower rates of scoliosis (3.1 % vs. 16 %; RR 0.35, 95 % CI 0.14–0.84, p = 0.02) and rib anomalies (0 % vs. 41.5 %; RR 0.05, 95 % CI 0.01–0.25, p = 0.0002). No significant differences were observed for chest wall anomalies (RR 0.65, p = 0.41) or scapula alata (RR 0.37, p = 0.30). However, the small number of studies and variability in diagnostic methods limit the strength and generalizability of these findings.ConclusionTR of EA may reduce long-term musculoskeletal morbidity—particularly scoliosis and rib anomalies—when compared to COR. While promising, these results should be interpreted https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11185 2025-10-31T16:20:22+00:00 pediatric surgery some4pedsurg Thoracic musculoskeletal deformities esophageal atresia esophageal atresia repair EA open repair conventional open repair COR thoracoscopic repair Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9440 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/9440/thumbnail_10996_2024-11-19_11-30-40.jpg Chronic Pancreatitis - Pancreatic Pathologies by Cincinnati Children's Pancreas Care Center In this educational video, experts from Cincinnati Children’s Pancreas Care Center discuss the complexities of diagnosing and managing chronic pancreatitis.

Nuestro objetivo fue determinar los resultados y las tasas de reingreso entre los pacientes pediátricos con colecistitis que se sometieron a una colecistectomía inicial frente a los que no. Métodos Realizamos un estudio retrospectivo de niños (<18 años) ingresados ​​con colecistitis aguda (CA) que requirieron hospitalización utilizando la Base de datos nacional de readmisión (NRD) de 2018. Los criterios de exclusión incluyeron edad ≥ 18 años y muerte en el momento del ingreso inicial. Se realizó un análisis de regresión logística multivariable para identificar factores asociados con los reingresos a los 30 días. Resultados Identificamos 550 ingresos por colecistitis aguda de índice único. La edad media fue 14,6 ± 3,0 años. La mayoría de los pacientes eran mujeres (n = 372, 67,6%). La colecistectomía índice se realizó en (n = 435, 79,1%) de los casos. La tasa de reingreso a los treinta días fue del 2,8% en los pacientes que se sometieron a colecistectomía índice y del 22,6% en los que no (p <0,001). En el análisis multivariable, los pacientes que no se sometieron a colecistectomía índice tuvieron mayores probabilidades de reingreso a los 30 días que aquellos que no se sometieron (OR 10,66; IC del 95 %: 5,06 a 22,45, p < 0,001).

She explains the importance of accurately diagnosing these subtle clefts using combined evaluations and the criteria for deciding when surgery is necessary. Key Points Covered: When to Operate: Indications include persistent respiratory symptoms, aspiration, or recurrent infections in children. Surgical Technique: The procedure involves removing the interarytenoid mucosa, using precise suturing to prevent issues like inverted edges, and ensuring complete demucosalization at the apex. Postoperative Care: Patients are monitored overnight and follow a preoperative diet until a follow-up evaluation 6-8 weeks later, which includes a video swallow study and endoscopy. Outcomes and Complications: While endoscopic repair shows a high success rate, Dr. Hart discusses the potential risks, including scarring and supraglottic infections, and emphasizes the importance of technique to minimize these complications. Learn how Cincinnati Children's ENT team ensures successful outcomes for kids with minor laryngeal clefts and why endoscopic repair is often preferred. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9373 2024-11-01T10:51:32+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/745 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/745/thumbnail_844_2018-11-13_00-04-32.jpg Urologic Fetal Intervention: Cincinnati Fetal Center Dr. Pramod Reddy, Division of Pediatric Urology, discusses fetal cystoscopy.

Selected by Dr. Jose Campos & the Chilean Society of pediatric Surgery  "Female Fertility Cryopreservation Outcomes in Childhood Cancer: A Systematic Review" Authors: Srinithya R. Gillipelli, Luca Pio, Paul D. Losty, Abdelhafeez H. Abdelhafeez Full article: https://gcmd.co/3QNpBML Background and aims As survival rates in childhood cancer progress significantly, health outcomes in adulthood are pivotal to quality of life (QoL). Female patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation for childhood cancer may experience adverse effects such as gonadotoxicity-related ovarian insufficiency. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) is well studied in adults, but has only recently started to be explored in an effort to preserve fertility in young patients with childhood cancer. This systematic review aims to critically highlight contemporary outcomes of cryopreservation in female pediatric cancer patients. Methods A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases to identify English-language full text articles and abstracts published between 2004 and 2022 describing cryopreservation among female children (0–21 years old) with cancer. Abstracts and full-text articles were screened for inclusion. Subsequently, data from eligible studies was extracted and analyzed. Descriptive statistics were utilized to estimate overall outcomes of cryopreservation. Results Of 104 abstracts and 34 full-text articles, 12 studies were included. Data was collected from 7 world countries and involved some 612 pediatric and adolescent patients with malignant disease. Most common cancers included hematological malignant disease (81%), CNS nervous system malignant tumors (56%), and sarcomas (39%). Of the 6 studies with full reporting, OTC was undertaken in 501 patients, and 5.9% (30/501) of these patients underwent ovarian tissue transplantation (OTT).

This time we are presenting you "Who to Send Home from the OR: Partial Thyroidectomy" with Drs. Mark Wulkan, Justin Huntington, Tolulope Oyetunji, & Phillip Ben Ham. Host: Cecilia Gigena   This video explores the considerations for same day discharge following minimally invasive pectus excavatum repair with intercostal neuro-cryoablation and uncomplicated right thyroid lobectomy. Key Points: Pectus Excavatum Repair: Discharge Timing: The majority of surgeons prefer a post-op stay of 2-3 days, but up to 20% consider same day discharge. The effectiveness of cryoablation and intercostal nerve blocks plays a significant role in determining discharge timing. ERAS Protocol Impact: Combining cryoablation with an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol has shown a reduction in opioid use and length of hospital stay, with many patients able to go home by day two. Patient and Family Education: Setting expectations about post-op pain and recovery is crucial for successful same day or early discharge. Thyroid Lobectomy: Same Day Discharge Feasibility: Approximately 30% of surgeons discharge patients on the same day, with the rest keeping them overnight due to concerns about post-op bleeding and recurrent laryngeal nerve injury. ATA Guidelines: The American Thyroid Association supports same day discharge for suitable patients, considering clinical, social, and procedural factors. Complication Management: While the risk of post-op hematoma exists, newer technologies and careful monitoring have reduced its occurrence, making same day discharge more viable. Summary: Pectus Excavatum Repair: Same day discharge is possible with cryoablation and ERAS, though most patients are discharged on day two or three based on pain control and patient preference. Thyroid Lobectomy: Same day discharge is increasingly accepted, p https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9052 2024-08-22T08:22:31+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8019 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/8019/thumbnail_9551_2024-02-26_10-48-34.jpg Jingying Jiang, MD - Best of the Best in Pediatric Surgery 2024 Watch PAPS' Dr. Jingying Jiang’s presentation on “Clinical characteristics and prognosis of biliary atresia with low serum matrix metalloproteinase-7 levels.” at the 2024 Best of the Best in Pediatric Surgery event!

Padilla, Lisa E. McMahon Full article: https://gcmd.co/40civ85 Introduction Minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum (MIRPE) and cartilaginous rib excision (CRE) for slipping rib syndrome (SRS) are painful procedures. Intercostal nerve cryoablation (Cryo) controls pain and decreases opioid use in MIRPE. Herein, we describe our experience with cryoablation in CRE. Methods A retrospective chart review was performed of all patients undergoing CRE between 2018 and 2022. Data on demographics, clinical characteristics, operative details, and hospital course were collected. Results A total of 98 patients underwent CRE: 68 CRE without cryo, 22 CRE + Cryo, and 8 combined MIRPE + CRE + Cryo. Ninety percent of patients underwent bioabsorbable rib plating. Patients were predominantly female (79%, 73%, 50% respectively) with median ages 17.6, 16.9, and 14.2 years respectively. CRE + Cryo patients used significantly less opioids in hospital (0.6 OME/kg [0.1,1.2]) compared to CRE without cryo (1.0 OME/kg [0.6,2.1]), p < 0.05. The median length of stay (LOS) in CRE + Cryo was 1 day [1,2] compared to 2 days in CRE without cryo [1,2], p = 0.09. MIRPE + CRE + Cryo patients used 0.6 OME/kg [0.2,8.0] with a 2 day [1,5.5] LOS. Ninety-one percent of Cryo patients had cryoablation of T9 and/or T10 intercostal nerves, with no documented abdominal wall laxity at median follow-up of 16 days. Cryo was applied extra-thoracically in CRE + cryo without thoracoscopy or lung isolation, while MIRPE + CRE + Cryo used a combination extra-/intra-thoracic cryoablation in with thoracoscopy. Conclusion Intercostal nerve cryoablation reduces opioid use and LOS in patients undergoing cartilaginous rib excision for slipping rib syndrome.

The American College of Surgeons (ACS) National Surgical Quality Improvement Program–Pediatric (NSQIPPed) GT Pilot was created to provide participants with these data. This study aims to analyze these data to identify variability in perioperative practices and post-operative morbidity in pediatric GT operations and to provide targets for future quality improvement (QI) interventions. Methods This retrospective cohort analysis of the ACS NSQIP-Ped database included pediatric surgical patients (0-17 years) who underwent GT placement between January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2023. The analysis focused on perioperative measures, such as preoperative upper gastrointestinal (UGI) study utilization, and postoperative morbidity outcomes, including emergency department (ED) visits related to GT placement and dislodgements. Results GT placement represented 5.3 % (8047/151508) of operations submitted to the NSQIP-Ped from all 157 hospitals in 2023. The 71 pilot hospitals that voluntarily participated in this pilot study submitted 57 % (4612/8047) of GT cases, with 77 % (3563/4612) of these cases being first-time GT. UGI studies were obtained in 45 % (1600/3563) of GT cases, with substantial interhospital variability (0-99 %). Postoperative morbidity outcomes included ED visits within 0-30 days in 14 % of GT cases and GT dislodgement in 5.2 % of cases. Conclusions Within pediatric GT placement, high variability exists in preoperative UGI use and high postoperative GT-related morbidity, including ED visits and dislodgements among pediatric facilities.

Cecilia GIgena "Pectus Arcuatum: un pectus como ningún otro" Autores: Sarah Abdellaoui, Aurélien Scalabre, Christian Piolat, Frédéric Lavrand, Amane-Allah Lachkar, Anne Lehn, Clémence Klipfel, Brice Henry, Valentin Soldea, Frédéric Hameury, François Becmeur Artículo completo: https://gcmd.co/48bwRZ9 Introducción El pectus arcuatum a menudo se confunde con un tipo de pectus carinatum. Sin embargo, el pectus arcuatum es una forma clínica única de pectus causada por la obliteración prematura de las suturas esternales (esternón manubrial, cuatro esternébras y proceso xifoides), mientras que el pectus carinatum se debe al crecimiento anormal del cartílago costal. Para describir mejor el pectus arcuatum, analizamos los expedientes de pacientes con pectus arcuatum seguidos en nuestros centros. Métodos Estudio retrospectivo multicéntrico de expedientes de pacientes jóvenes diagnosticados de pectus arcuatum. Resultados El diagnóstico clínico de pectus arcuatum se realizó en 34 pacientes con una edad media al diagnóstico de 10,3 años (4-23 años). Se realizó una radiografía de perfil de tórax o una tomografía computarizada en 16 pacientes (47%) y confirmó el diagnóstico de AP por la presencia de una fusión esternal. Fue completo en 12 pacientes. Se asoció una malformación en el 35% de los casos (síndrome de Noonan 33%, escoliosis 25% o cardiopatía 16%). 11 pacientes (32%) tenían antecedentes familiares de malformación esquelética. En 3 pacientes se inició tratamiento ortopédico sin éxito. A 11 pacientes se les realizó corrección quirúrgica, que se completó en 7 de ellos. Conclusión El diagnóstico de pectus arcuatum se basa en la experiencia clínica y si es necesario, en una radiografía de tórax de perfil que muestre la fusión de las piezas esternales. Implica la búsqueda de malformaciones asociadas (musculoesqueléticas, cardíacas, sindrómicas).

Laparoscopic high-ligation repair is not recommended by adult hernia surgeons because of concerns regarding recurrence[2]. This study aimed to conduct a prospective pilot trial using the modified percutaneous internal ring suturing (mPIRS) technique to examine the efficacy of laparoscopic non-mesh repair of indirect inguinal hernia in adults.Material and methodsThis prospective single-center cohort study was conducted after obtaining approval from a regional ethical review board. Written informed consent was obtained prior to any protocol-related activity.All mPIRS operations, preoperative and postoperative clinical examinations, and follow-up examinations were performed by the same surgeon (PFG). All patients were examined for surgical wound healing and hernia recurrence 1 month and 1 year after surgery. Patients were instructed to fill out three questionnaires for assessment of hernia-related pain and functional activity and to evaluate abdominal-specific and general health-related quality of life [Short Form-36 (SF-36)] prior to surgery and 1 month and 1 year postoperatively[3–5]. Patients were further interviewed by telephone for at least 3 years after surgery to assess the self-reported signs of hernia recurrence.The study inclusion was according to the protocol and performed in an academic hospital setting.Study outcomesThe primary outcome was hernia recurrence. The secondary outcomes were complications from surgery within 1 year of the repair, including pain and discomfort interfering with usual activities and quality of life.EligibilityPatients aged ≥18 years with suspected or radiolog https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11894 2026-05-01T17:35:58+00:00 1 Laparoscopic modified percutaneous internal ring suturing inguinal hernia hernia mesh-free pediatric surgery pedsurg some4pedsurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11105 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/11105/d5d29faa626b33ff86ac6e4890179a3f.jpg Rectal Atresia - a Unique Anorectal Malformation Pediatric Colorectal & Pelvic Reconstruction | Children's National Hospital  spaces/8/content/11105/3837c28d579b051eb2654fe72fd4a460.mp4 2025-10-15T09:30:49+00:00 rectalatresia anorectalmalformation colorectal marclevitt drlevitt channel#private_colorectal_channel Medical Education yes Colorectal Channel no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1713 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1713/thumbnail_1953_2019-09-30_22-00-07.jpg Gastrografin Protocol for Adhesive Small Bowel Obstruction (SBO) Dr. Meera Kotagal discusses the use of gastrografin for diagnosis and potential therapeutic treatment for adhesive small bowel obstruction.

St. Peter Artículo completo: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00075-1/fulltext Introducción El Consorcio de Cirugía Pediátrica del Medio Oeste (MWPSC) sugirió un protocolo de aspiración simple del neumotórax espontáneo primario (PSP), en su defecto, se debe considerar la cirugía toracoscópica asistida por video (VATS). Describimos nuestros resultados utilizando este protocolo sugerido. Métodos Se realizó un análisis retrospectivo de una sola institución en pacientes entre 12 y 18 años que fueron diagnosticados con PSP entre 2016 y 2021. El manejo inicial implicó aspiración sola con un tubo de toracostomía percutánea ≤12 F seguido de pinzamiento del tubo y radiografía de tórax a las 6 h. El éxito se definió como una distancia ≤2 cm entre la pared torácica y el pulmón en el ápice y sin fuga de aire cuando se soltó la pinza. Se siguió VATS si la aspiración fallaba. Resultados Se incluyeron cincuenta y nueve pacientes. La mediana de edad fue 16,8 años (RIC 15,9, 17,3). La aspiración tuvo éxito en el 33% (20), mientras que el 66% (39) requirió VATS. La mediana de LOS con aspiración exitosa fue de 20,4 h (RIC 16,8, 34,8), mientras que la mediana de LOS después de VATS fue de 3,1 días (RIC 2,6, 4). En comparación, en el estudio MWPSC, la estancia media para aquellos tratados con un tubo torácico después de una aspiración fallida fue de 6,0 días (±5,5). La recurrencia después de una aspiración exitosa fue del 45% (n = 9), mientras que la recurrencia después de VATS fue del 25% (n = 10). La mediana del tiempo hasta la recurrencia después de una aspiración exitosa fue más rápida que la del grupo VATS [16, https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7191 2023-09-20T22:00:09+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2998 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/2998/thumbnail_2998_2020-09-14_08-00-09.jpg PDC 2020 Practice Gaps This clip from the 2020 Pediatric Surgery Update Course features Elizabeth Beierle, MD, Erik Skarsgard, MD, and Robert Cusick, MD presenting 2020’s practice gaps as identified by the American Pediatric Surgical Association’s (APSA) Professional Development Committee.

The newest AAP guidelines formally recognize obesity as a disease and recommend active treatment—not watchful waiting.Shift in Clinical Practice: Treatment should be offered to children above the 85th percentile BMI. The model has shifted from prevention-only efforts to a proactive, continuum-based care strategy.Continuum of Care: Management includes Intensive Health Behavior and Lifestyle Treatment (26+ contact hours), FDA-approved pharmacotherapy for adolescents, and bariatric surgery for select patients—each playing a role depending on severity and response.Efficacy & Challenges: GLP-1 medications demonstrate meaningful weight loss, and bariatric surgery shows durable BMI reduction and improvement in comorbidities. However, weight regain remains a significant biological challenge.MASLD & Long-Term Risk: Obesity is strongly linked to metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), affecting millions of youth and placing many at risk for cirrhosis, transplant, or hepatocellular carcinoma.Equity & Advocacy: Obesity disproportionately impacts children of color and those in under-resourced communities. Access to effective treatment—including medications—is a health equity issue that demands advocacy.This session reinforces that pediatric obesity requires early, evidence-based intervention, multidisciplinary care, and systemic advocacy to improve lifelong health outcomes. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11602 2026-03-03T21:16:45+00:00 3 Pediatric Obesity Multifactorial Disease Gene Environment Interaction Intensive Lifestyle Treatment Pharmacotherapy FDA Approved Bariatric Surgery Weight Regain MASLD NAFLD Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10417 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/10417/e5ffe129882d96ee4f636a05be600ce6.jpg Remote Ischemic Conditioning (RIC) Decreases the Incidence and Severity of Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) - Validation in a Large Animal Model Rahul Gadde, Jason Xia, Sophia Hameedi, Angela Saulsbery, Carly Schafer, Lourenço Sbragia, Oluyinka O Olutoye Background: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) remains a devastating intestinal disease that affects 5-7% of preterm neonates. Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has been shown to protect against intestinal ischemia in rodents. We aimed to determine the efficacy of RIC in a large animal model of NEC. Methods: Using an established piglet model of NEC, preterm piglets of 103-107 days gestation (term = 115 days) were randomly assigned to receive RIC or serve as untreated controls. RIC was initiated at 24 h of life and consisted of 4 cycles of 4-min occlusion followed by reperfusion; cycles were repeated every 24 or 12 h for low frequency (LF) and high frequency (HF) groups, respectively. Piglets were monitored clinically for NEC which was confirmed postmortem using established anatomic and histologic scoring. Results: Eighty-six piglets were randomized into controls (N = 38), LF-RIC (n = 26) and HF-RIC (n = 22) groups. In contrast to the rodent models, in piglets LF-RIC (every 24 h) did not decrease the incidence of NEC compared to controls. However, HF-RIC (every 12 h) significantly reduced the incidence of NEC (OR = 0.13; 95% CI: 0.03, 0.55; p = 0.02) and resulted in a lower severity of NEC (p < 0.0001) compared to controls. Conclusions: RIC offers protection against NEC in the piglet model only when administered more frequently than in rodents. Further studies are needed to define the optimum frequency of RIC for piglets that may translate to clinical use. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10417 2025-04-28T06:55:05+00:00 1 Alex halpern jps journal of pediatric surgery Remote ischemic conditioning Piglet nec Necrotizing enterocolitis Enteral nutrition Animal model cincinnati childrens Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/661 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/661/thumbnail_748_2018-11-10_00-05-19.jpg Groin Controversies - Todd Ponsky: Update Course 2014 Dr. Todd Ponsky presents various cases involving groin hernia repairs.

From Journal of Pediatric Surgery by Dr. Cecilia Gigena "Meta-Analysis of Enhaced Recovery After Ssurgery Protocols for the Perioperative Management of Pediatric Colorectal Surgery”  Authors: Yingchun Su, Lu Xu, Jinhui Hu, Jiayinaxi Musha, Song Lin Full article: https://gcmd.co/3RRiwul Objective This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the effects and safety of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) for the management of pediatric colorectal surgery. Methods We retrieved relevant studies from PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and China National Knowledgement Infrastructure (CNKI) from its inception until 20 May 2022. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4, and power analysis was calculated using G∗Power 3.1. Results Ten studies involving 1298 patients were included for meta-analysis. Meta-analysis suggested that ERAS protocol significantly lessened intraoperative fluids (mean difference [MD], −3.11; 95% confidence interval, −4.99 to −1.22) and postoperative opioid usage (MD, −0.58; 95% CI, −1.08 to −0.26), shortened time to bowel return (MD, −12.02; 95% CI, −20.03 to −4.02), first enteral nutrition (MD, −20.88; 95% CI, −28.34 to −13.42) and oral intake (MD, −1.40; 95% CI, −1.96 to −0.84), lowered readmission rate in 30 days (relative risk [RR], 0.61, 95% CI, 0.41 to 0.90), shortened length of hospital stay (MD, −1.50; 95% CI, −1.25 to −1.09), and reduced in-hospital costs (MD, −0.26; 95% CI, −0.34 to −0.18); however, there was a comparable rate of postoperative complications between the two groups. Sensitivity analysis significantly changed the result of the readmission rate in 30 days. The statistical power of all outcomes ranged from 26.84% to 99.44%. Conclusions Our findings demonstrate the beneficial role of the ERAS protocol in accelerating rehabilitation, shortening the length of hospital stay, and decreasing in-hospital costs among pediatric patients undergoing colorectal surgery. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7881 2024-01-10T22:00:17+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6631 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/6631/thumbnail_6631_2023-05-10_16-00-15.jpg Ingestión de pila boton en pediatría: Experiencia de un centro y score de riesgo para predecir resultados Otro artículo que tenes que conocer por la dra Cecilia Gigena  “Ingestión de pila boton en pediatría: Experiencia de un centro y score de riesgo para predecir resultados” Scaline N et.al.  P.

Demehri Articulo completo: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(22)00790-4/fulltext Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to analyze the management and outcomes of primary button battery ingestions and their sequelae at a single high-volume center, and to propose a risk score to predict the likelihood of a severe outcome. Methods The medical record was queried for all patients under 21 years old evaluated at our institution for button battery ingestion from 2008 to 2021. A severe outcome was defined as having at least one of the following: deep/circumferential mucosal erosion, perforation, mediastinitis, vascular or airway injury/fistula, or development of esophageal stricture. From a selection of clinically relevant factors, logistic regression determined predictors of a severe outcome, which were incorporated into a risk model. Results 143 patients evaluated for button battery ingestion were analyzed. 24 (17%) had a severe outcome. The independent predictors of a severe outcome in multivariate analysis were location of battery in the esophagus on imaging (96%), battery size >/ = 2 cm (95%), and presence of any symptoms on presentation (96%), with P < 0.001 in all cases. Predicted probability of a severe outcome ranged from 88% when all three risk factors were observed, to 0.3% when none were present. Conclusion We report the presentation, management, and complication profiles of a large cohort of BB ingestions treated at a single institution. A risk score to predict severe outcomes may be used by providers initially evaluating patients with button battery ingestion in order to allocate resources https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6631 2023-05-10T16:00:15+00:00 1 channel#staycurrent_espanol Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/654 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/654/thumbnail_741_2018-11-10_00-05-18.jpg Vascular Access Controversies: Update Course 2014 Comprehensive panel discussion of vascular access controversies, ultra sound guided right internal jugular (IJ), surgical port placement, and the pre-operative work-up of a case of a hemophilia patient.

En estos entornos, se teoriza que la ileostomía derivativa (DI) tiene un efecto protector sobre la nueva anastomosis. Sin embargo, los análisis se han realizado sólo en series de una sola institución y el verdadero impacto de realizar la DI en el momento de la IPAA sobre los resultados posoperatorios no está claro. Métodos Realizamos un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo utilizando datos de reclamaciones de la base de datos MarketScan® de International Business Machines (IBM). Los pacientes fueron clasificados en el grupo DI si portaban un código CPT para el cierre de la ostomía dentro de los 6 meses posteriores al procedimiento índice. Examinamos la demografía, los factores de riesgo preoperatorios y realizamos análisis de regresión para comparar los resultados posoperatorios a los 30 días entre los grupos. Resultados Identificamos 317 pacientes ≤18 años que se sometieron al procedimiento IPAA y cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión entre 2000 y 2019. De estos, 238 pacientes fueron asignados a la cohorte IPAA + DI y 79 pacientes fueron asignados a la cohorte IPAA. Los resultados adversos fueron comparables entre las cohortes. Las tasas de infección del sitio quirúrgico (ISQ) entre IPAA e IPAA + DI fueron 10,1 frente a 11,3% (p = 0,67). Las tasas de procedimientos de drenaje intraabdominal fueron del 3,8 frente al 2,1% (p = 0,39).

For prepubertal female patients at high risk of treatment-related infertility, upfront storage of ovarian tissue is increasingly being recognised as standard of care. No surgical guidelines exist to ensure best practice technique. We reviewed current UK practice to assess surgical management. Methods: A ten-item, anonymous multiple-choice survey was distributed to the lead surgeons in all paediatric centres in England/Wales undertaking ovarian procurement for cryopreservation. Results: There are currently 18 centres in England and Wales that provide ovarian procurement for cryopreservation. Responses were received from 100% of the invited paediatric surgical oncology centres in England and Wales. 39.3% of participants stated that in their centre 20 cases are undertaken per year. In 64% of centres surgery is performed by a paediatric surgeon with interest in oncology or fertility preservation. The majority of cases were performed by a Consultant or Senior Registrar (89%). Regarding the surgical technique, 82% of respondents stated they gain access to the abdominal cavity using standard 3-port laparoscopy, 7% use single-port laparoscopy. Most frequently used energy devices for ovary/ovarian tissue resection were Ligasure™ (44%) and Harmonic Scalpel™ (18.5%). 96% of respondents perform a total oophorectomy, 1 respondent stated they perform a hemi-oophorectomy. 53% stated they place the ovary into a retrieval bag only if the ovary was too big for easy removal via the camera port, 28.5% always place it in a retrieval bag. Most surgeons use the umbilical port site for retrieval (82%).

Recently, peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) have been used instead. Although PICC has the advantages of simpler insertion and fewer severe complications, there is little information on the efficacy of PICC compared to TCV in pediatric chemotherapy. Methods Patients, aged younger than 18 years, with primary malignancy who received chemotherapy with PICC or TCV at our institution from December 2007 to August 2022 were included in the study. We retrospectively compared PICC and TCV using medical records. Results Within the observation period, 133 catheters (73 PICCs and 60 TCVs) were inserted. The median indwelling time was 99 days for PICCs and 182 days for TCVs, with TCVs being significantly longer (p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in the incidence of complications, such as infections, thrombosis, obstruction, or mechanical accidents. Comparing patients treated with PICC (PICC group) versus those with TCV (TCV group), the time from diagnosis to insertion was significantly shorter in the PICC group (p < 0.001). In the PICC group, none of the patients required general anesthesia, and chemotherapy was completed with PICC only. Conclusion PICC can be an alternative to TCV in pediatric chemotherapy. spaces/1/content/7778/file_9293_2023-12-13_16-00-07.mp4 2023-12-13T16:00:07+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5786 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/5786/thumbnail_5786_2022-08-24_15-05-12.jpg Pyloric Stenosis Guideline Recap Dr. Meera Kotagal discusses the preoperative and post-operative management of pyloric stenosis.

La tomografía computarizada (CT) o la resonancia magnética (MRI) se pueden utilizar para el diagnóstico cuando los resultados de la ecografía son equívocos. Sin embargo, la tomografía computarizada implica una exposición innecesaria a la radiación si se dispone de resonancia magnética. Después de introducir un protocolo de apendicitis por resonancia magnética de secuencia rápida (rsMRI) en nuestra institución, la TC todavía se usaba preferentemente. Por lo tanto, implementamos una campaña de mejora de la calidad (QI) para reducir la tasa de TC y aumentar la tasa de rsMRI. Aquí, evaluamos la efectividad de la campaña de QI mientras evaluamos las barreras potenciales para el uso de rsMRI. Métodos Realizamos un estudio de métodos mixtos, primero realizamos entrevistas a las partes interesadas que informaron el diseño de una campaña de MC iniciada en mayo de 2021 y una encuesta de retroalimentación a mitad de camino en diciembre de 2021. Luego se realizó un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo de niños evaluados por apendicitis en nuestra institución entre el 1 de enero de 2021. , 2016 y 30 de abril de 2022. Las tasas de CT y rsMRI se compararon antes y después de la implementación de la campaña de MC.

We examined the effect of aggressive pursuit of NED status on event-free (EFS) and overall survival (OS) in hepatoblastoma with subgroup analysis of high-risk patients. Methods Hospital records were queried for patients with hepatoblastoma from 2005 to 2021. Primary outcomes were OS and EFS stratified by risk and NED status. Group comparisons were performed using univariate analysis and simple logistic regression. Survival differences were compared with log-rank tests. Results Fifty consecutive patients with hepatoblastoma were treated. Forty-one (82%) were rendered NED. NED was inversely correlated with 5-year mortality (OR 0.006; CI 0.001–0.056; P < .01). Ten-year OS (P < .01) and EFS (P < .01) were improved by achieving NED. Ten-year OS was similar between 24 high-risk and 26 not high-risk patients when NED was attained (P = .83). Fourteen high-risk patients underwent a median of 2.5 pulmonary metastasectomies, 7 for unilateral disease, and 7 for bilateral, with a median of 4.5 nodules resected. Five high-risk patients relapsed, and three were salvaged. Conclusions NED status is necessary for survival in hepatoblastoma. Repeated pulmonary metastasectomy and/or complex local control strategies to obtain NED can achieve long-term survival in high-risk patients. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6771 2023-06-28T18:00:08+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7226 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/7226/thumbnail_8713_2023-10-04_18-00-10.jpg Carga mental de la enfermedad pilonidal y mejora de la calidad de vida tras el tratamiento en adolescentes ¡Nuevo artículo que debes conocer! por la Dra.

Nuestra hipótesis es que los pacientes con diferente género, etnia y edad tienen diferentes medidas de calidad de vida (CV) que podrían mejorar con un tratamiento mínimamente invasivo (MIT). Métodos 131 pacientes con EP se sometieron a MIT (depilación láser ± trepanación) entre 2019 y 2021. Se registraron los datos demográficos de los pacientes. Antes y después del MIT, los pacientes recibieron un cuestionario de calidad de vida que constaba de cuatro categorías: actividades diarias, participación deportiva, asistencia a la escuela/trabajo y socialización. Los datos se analizaron mediante la prueba t de Student y multivariada. P < 0,05 se consideró estadísticamente significativo. Resultados Se incluyeron 101 (51 hombres, 50 mujeres) pacientes. Se excluyeron 30 pacientes con datos incompletos. El 54% de los pacientes tenían < 18 años. El 47,5% eran hispanos. La mediana de duración de los síntomas antes de la presentación fue de 5,4 (1,3-15) meses. Antes del MIT, la capacidad de los pacientes para realizar actividades diarias, participar en deportes, asistir a la escuela/trabajo y socializar se veía afectada moderada o gravemente en el 66 %, 57 %, 45 % y 23 % de los encuestados, respectivamente; después del MIT, sólo el 7%, 8%, 2% y 4% se vieron afectados (p < 0,01). La tasa de recurrencia fue del 6%. Antes del MIT, los pacientes mayores y los no hispanos informaron un peor impacto en su calidad de vida.

Purpose: Daily postoperative anal dilations after endorectal pull-through for Hirschsprung disease (HD) are still considered a common practice. We analyzed the potential risks of this procedure and its effectiveness compared to a new internal protocol. Methods: All infants (< 6 months of age) who underwent transanal endorectal pull-through between January 2021 and January 2023 were prospectively enrolled in a new postoperative protocol group without daily anal dilations (Group A) and compared (1:2 fashion) to those previously treated by postoperative anal dilations (Group B). Patients were matched for age and affected colonic tract. Patients with associated syndromes, extended total intestinal aganglionosis, and presence of enterostomy were excluded. Outcomes considered were: anastomotic complications (stenosis, disruption/leakage), incidence of enterocolitis, and constipation. Results: Eleven patients were included in group A and compared to 22 matched patients (group B). There were no significant differences in the occurrence of anastomotic complications between the two groups. We found a lower incidence of enterocolitis and constipation among group A (p = 0.03 and p = 0.02, respectively). Conclusion: A non-dilation strategy after endorectal pull-through could be a feasible alternative and does not significantly increase the risk of postoperative anastomotic complications. Moreover, some preliminary advantages such as lower enterocolitis rate and constipation should be further investigated. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9460 2024-11-27T06:17:10+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7597 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/7597/thumbnail_9110_2023-11-08_22-00-07.jpg Meta-Analysis of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Protocols for the Perioperative Management of Pediatric Colorectal Surgery Another article you should know by Cecilia Gigena from JPS "Meta-Analysis of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Protocols for the Perioperative Management of Pediatric Colorectal Surgery" Authors: Yingchun Su, Lu Xu, Jinhui Hu, Jiayinaxi Musha, Song Lin Full article: https://gcmd.co/3u7nnzp Objective This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the effects and safety of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) for the management of pediatric colorectal surgery. Methods We retrieved relevant studies from PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and China National Knowledgement Infrastructure (CNKI) from its inception until 20 May 2022. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4, and power analysis was calculated using G∗Power 3.1. Results Ten studies involving 1298 patients were included for meta-analysis. Meta-analysis suggested that ERAS protocol significantly lessened intraoperative fluids (mean difference [MD], −3.11; 95% confidence interval, −4.99 to −1.22) and postoperative opioid usage (MD, −0.58; 95% CI, −1.08 to −0.26), shortened time to bowel return (MD, −12.02; 95% CI, −20.03 to −4.02), first enteral nutrition (MD, −20.88; 95% CI, −28.34 to −13.42) and oral intake (MD, −1.40; 95% CI, −1.96 to −0.84), lowered readmission rate in 30 days (relative risk [RR], 0.61, 95% CI, 0.41 to 0.90), shortened length of hospital stay (MD, −1.50; 95% CI, −1.25 to −1.09), and reduced in-hospital costs (MD, −0.26; 95% CI, −0.34 to −0.18); however, there was a comparable rate of postoperative complications between the two groups. Sensitivity analysis significantly changed the result of the readmission rate in 30 days. The statistical power of all outcomes ranged from 26.84% to 99.44%. Conclusions Our findings demonstrate the beneficial role of the ERAS protocol in accelerating rehabilitation, shortening the length of hospital stay, and decreasing in-hospital costs among pediatric patients undergoing colorectal surgery. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7597 2023-11-08T22:00:07+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6503 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6503/thumbnail_6503_2023-03-15_22-00-12.jpg Reoperation for a patient with Hirschsprung disease and fecal incontinence Andrea Badillo, M.D., Anil Darbari, M.D., Wilfried Krois, M.D., Carlos Reck, M.D., Shikib Mostamand, M.D., Marc A.

Originally described in the 1940s, this condition is seen in about 30% of children under 2 years old and can lead to tracheomalacia and obstructive symptoms. Dr. von Allmen reviews the procedure, patient selection, and outcomes from his team’s experience with this approach. Key Highlights: Innominate Artery Compression: Causes tracheal compression leading to breathing difficulties, especially in syndromic patients. Procedure Overview: A transcervical approach to innominate artery pexy, which includes removing the thymus and lifting the artery to relieve tracheal compression. Patient Case: A 6-month-old with a history of esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula underwent the surgery with successful outcomes. Postoperative Results: Improvements in the tracheal lumen, weaning off oxygen, and even decannulation for some patients. This procedure offers a good alternative in appropriately selected patients, and the team at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital has shown positive results with this approach. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9204 2024-09-25T06:19:17+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9267 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/34/content/9267/thumbnail_10822_2024-10-10_07-09-03.jpg GYN #4 Management of Tubal Torsion: When to Consider Salpingectomy with Dr. Lesley Breech In this episode, we have a guest from the pediatric gynecology department here at Cincinnati Children’s, Dr. Lesley Breech.

Smith, Elizabeth Fialkowski Abstract  Purpose Surgical site infection (SSI) remains a significant source of patient morbidity and resource utilization in children undergoing colorectal surgery. We examined the utility of a protocolized perioperative care bundle in reducing SSI in pediatric patients undergoing colorectal surgery. Methods We conducted a prospective cohort study of patients ≤18 years of age undergoing colorectal surgery at ten United States children's hospitals. Using a perioperative care protocol comprising eight elements, or “colon bundle”, we divided patients into low (1–4 elements) or high (5–8 elements) compliance cohorts. Procedures involving colorectal repair or anastomosis with abdominal closure were included. Demographics and clinical outcomes were compared between low and high compliance cohorts. Compliance was compared with a retrospective cohort. The primary outcome was superficial SSI incidence at 30 days. Results Three hundred and thirty-six patients were included in our analysis: 138 from the low compliance cohort and 198 from the high compliance cohort. Age and gender were similar between groups. Preoperative diagnosis was similar except for more patients in the high compliance cohort having inflammatory bowel disease (18.2% versus https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6578 2023-04-19T04:00:12+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8937 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/8937/thumbnail_10489_2024-07-29_08-11-11.jpg Exploración laparoscópica trancística del conducto biliar común en pacientes pediátricos con coledocolitiasis Nuevo artículo que tienes que conocer por Cecilia Gigena del JPS "Exploración laparoscópica trancística del conducto biliar común en pacientes pediátricos con coledocolitiasis" Autores: Jessica Rauh, Goeto Dantes, Marshall Wallace, Amelia Collings, Gloria D.

La LC inicial, la colangiografía intraoperatoria (IOC) y una posible exploración laparoscópica transcística del conducto biliar común (LCBDE) podrían evitar potencialmente la necesidad de una CPRE. Presumimos que LC + IOC ± LCBDE por adelantado disminuirá la duración de la estadía (LOS) y el número total de intervenciones para niños con sospecha de coledocolitiasis. Métodos Se realizó un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo multicéntrico en pacientes pediátricos (<18 años) entre 2018 y 2022 con sospecha de coledocolitiasis. Se compararon los datos demográficos y clínicos para la CL inicial + COI ± LCBDE y la posible CPRE posoperatoria (OR1.ª) versus la CPRE preoperatoria antes de la CL (OR2.ª). Las complicaciones se definieron como pancreatitis posoperatoria, coledocolitiasis recurrente, sangrado o absceso. Resultados En cuatro centros, 252 niños con sospecha de coledocolitiasis fueron tratados con OR1st (n = 156) o OR2nd (n = 96). No hubo diferencias en edad, sexo o índice de masa corporal. De los pacientes con LCBDE (72/156), el 86% tuvo un manejo intraoperatorio definitivo y el 14% restante requirió CPRE postoperatoria.

In this video, we cover the management of pediatric empyema, including diagnosis, treatment algorithms, imaging, and surgical versus non-surgical approaches with Dr. Aaron Garrison, a pediatric surgeon at Cincinnati Children’s. Host: Brittany Levy Key Takeaways: • Pediatric empyema pneumonia requires a combination of medical and surgical management, but decision-making can be complex. • Community-acquired pneumonia is a leading cause of hospitalization in children, yet bacterial pathogens are detected in only 15% of cases. • Empyema progresses in three stages: exudative, fibrinopurulent, and organizing. The fibrinopurulent stage is when surgical intervention is often needed. • Ultrasound is more sensitive than CT in detecting septations in pleural effusions and avoids radiation exposure. • Chest tube drainage with fibrinolytics (such as TPA) has been shown to be a viable alternative to VATS, reducing hospital stays and costs. • Some children with effusions may not require TPA—clinical improvement within 24 hours of drainage can indicate that it’s unnecessary. • Inhaled foreign bodies, particularly peanuts, can mimic pneumonia and require a high index of suspicion for proper diagnosis. • CT scans are now being used to diagnose airway foreign bodies with high reliability, reducing unnecessary bronchoscopies. • Pulmonary abscesses in otherwise healthy children often resolve with antibiotics alone and rarely require drainage.

Bendre Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00193-8/pdf Background Common salt is a safe, effective and cheap home-made remedy for umbilical granuloma. The aim of this scoping review is to identify and summarize the available evidence and examine the research conducted on salt treatment for umbilical granuloma. Methods A literature search was performed in the second week of September, 2022 using Google scholar, PubMed, MEDLINE and EMBASE databases using the keywords ‘umbilical granuloma’ and ‘salt treatment’ to identify all English articles pertaining to salt treatment for umbilical granuloma. Tables were made to summarize the methodological characteristics, results and the dosage regimens of salt used by different authors. The Cochrane Collaboration's tool was used for assessing risk of bias in RCTs. The indexing statuses of the journals publishing these studies were also noted. The overall efficacy with the use of common salt was calculated by adding the success rates mentioned in each study. Results Twenty-four articles (2 systematic reviews, 6 Randomized Controlled Trials, 11 prospective cohort studies, 1 case control study, 3 retrospective case series and 1 case report) were included. An overall 93.91% success rate (1033/1100) was seen with common salt application, without any reports of complications/recurrences. Conclusion  Topical application of common salt for umbilical granulomas is simple, effective and inexpensive. This scoping review provides a broader outlook at the existing level of evidence and may help in planning interventional comparative studies, so that recommendations can be formulated.

It is often asymptomatic, but can present with pain, gastric outlet obstruction, vomiting, and dysphagia. Pyloric obstructions from HP can cause several of these symptoms and require surgical intervention. This case report documents the first surgical resection of a symptomatic HP using a laparoscopic transgastric approach, under endoscopic guidance preformed on an 18-year-old male. This innovative method is a minimally invasive option for HP resection compared to open abdominal surgery, allowing for a faster recovery and limited complications.  spaces/2/content/6855/file_8311_2023-07-20_04-00-18.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:18+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6704 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6704/thumbnail_6704_2023-06-06_18-00-13.jpg Dr. Asa Yancey Sr.: Surgical Leader, Innovator and Pioneer Presented by: Gretchen Floan, MD, Naval Medical Center San Diego  Romeo C. ignacio, MD.

Our goal was to decrease intra and postoperative hypothermia. Intervention: In November 2021, a radiant warmer and hat were included along with standard warming methods prior to the start of General Surgery procedures to minimize episodes of hypothermia. Primary outcome: Core body temperature was measured pre, intra and post-operatively. Methods: Data were prospectively collected from electronic medical records from July 2021 to March 2023. A retrospective analysis was performed. Hypothermia was defined as a temperature <36.5C. Control charts were created to analyze the effect of interventions. Results: A total of 277 procedures were identified; 226 abdominal procedures, 31 thoracic, 14 skin/soft tissue and 6 anorectal. The median post-natal age was 36.1 weeks (IQR: 33.2-39.2), with a pre-surgical weight of 2.3 kg (IQR: 1.6-3.0) and operative duration of 181 min (IQR: 125-214). Hat and warmer data were unavailable for 59 procedures, both hat and warmer were used for 51 % procedures, hat alone for 29 %, warmer alone for 10 % and neither for 10 % of procedures. Over time there was a significant increase in hat utilization while warmer usage was unchanged. There was a significant increase in the mean lowest intra-operative temperature and decrease in proportion of hypothermic patients intra-operatively and post-operatively. Conclusions: The inclusion of a radiant warmer and hat decreased the proportion of hypothermic patients during and after surgery. Further studies are necessary to analyze the impact on surgical outcomes. spaces/1/content/9061/file_10615_2024-08-26_06-55-45.mp4 2024-08-26T06:55:45+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8077 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8077/thumbnail_9610_2024-03-13_11-19-29.jpg Efficacy and late kidney effects of nephron-sparing surgery in the management of unilateral Wilms tumor Newarticle you should know by Cecilia Gigena "Efficacy and late kidney effects of nephron-sparing surgery in the management of unilateral Wilms tumor: a systematic review and meta-analysis" Authors: Shan Li, Jinkui Wang, Mujie Li, Zhaoxia Zhang, Tao Mi, Xin Wu, Zhang Wang, Liming Jin, Dawei He  Full article: https://gcmd.co/3vgzJ9c Abstract To evaluate the efficiency and long-term renal function of nephron sparing surgery (NSS) in unilateral WT patients compared with radical nephrectomy (RN). The review was performed following Cochrane Handbook guidelines and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). We searched five databases (Pubmed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane) for studies reporting the efficiency and late renal function of NSS and/or RN on February 10, 2023. Comparative studies were evaluated by Risk of Bias in Non-randomized Studies of Interventions (ROBINS-I) and RoB 2.0. Assessed outcomes included survival rate, relapse rate, eGFR, renal dysfunction and hypertension. 26 studies involving 10322 unilateral WT cases underwent RN and 657 unilateral WT cases underwent NSS were enrolled. Overall effect estimates demonstrated that NSS significantly increased eGFR at follow-up (SMD, 0.38; 95% CI 0.05-0.72; p = 0.025) compared to that at diagnosis, and RN did not significantly decrease eGFR at follow-up (SMD, - 0.33; 95% CI - 0.77-0.11; p = 0.142) compared to that at diagnosis. Moreover, no significant difference was found in outcomes of survivability (OR, 1.38; 95% CI 0.82-2.32; p = 0.226), recurrence (OR, 0.62; 95% CI 0.34-1.12; p = 0.114), eGFR at follow-up (SMD, 0.16; 95% CI - 0.36-0.69; p = 0.538), renal dysfunction (OR, 0.36; 95% CI 0.07-1.73; p = 0.200) and hypertension (OR, 0.17; 95% CI 0.03-1.10; p = 0.063). Current evidence suggests that NSS is safe and effective for unilateral WT patients, because it causes better renal function and similar oncological outcomes compared with RN.

La traqueopexia posterior (PT) es una técnica establecida para tratar la TBM que se desarrolla después de la reparación EA/TEF. Este estudio evalúa el impacto del PT primario en el momento de la reparación inicial de EA/TEF. Métodos Revisión de todas las reparaciones primarias de EA/TEF de recién nacidos (2016-2021) en dos instituciones. Se excluyeron los casos de EA de larga duración y reoperatorios. Según la preferencia del cirujano y la broncoscopia preoperatoria, los recién nacidos se sometieron a PT primario (Grupo EA + PT) o no (Grupo EA). Se evaluaron los resultados perioperatorios, respiratorios y nutricionales durante el primer año de vida. Resultados Entre 63 recién nacidos, 21 (33%) se sometieron a PT durante la reparación EA/TEF. Los grupos fueron similares en términos de demografía, enfoque y complicaciones. Los recién nacidos en el grupo EA + PT tenían significativamente menos probabilidades de tener infecciones respiratorias que requirieran hospitalización durante el primer año de vida (0 % frente a 26 %, p = 0,01) o episodios azules (0 % frente a 19 %, p = 0,04). Además, demostraron puntuaciones z de peso para la edad mejoradas a los 12 meses de edad (0,24 frente a −1,02, p <0,001).

Article you should know "Management and clinical outcomes of congenital esophageal stenosis in pediatric patients: Experience of a tertiary referral center" Şeref Selçuk Kılıç et.al. Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(21)00474-7/fulltext Authors: Şeref Selçuk Kılıç, Hilmi Serdar İskit Abstract Purpose This study aimed to retrospectively investigate congenital esophageal stenosis (CES) cases managed at our institution using a non-aggressive strategy based on a step-up approach from esophageal balloon dilatations to surgery. Methods Patients’ charts with CES managed in a tertiary pediatric surgery department were retrospectively evaluated. Demographic characteristics, clinical features, pH-monitoring, imaging, and esophagoscopy results were recorded together with their treatments and outcomes. Results Nineteen patients, confirmed with radiologic and endoscopic investigations, were managed. Complete symptom resolution was achieved in 14 patients by a median of five (2–15) recurrent esophageal balloon dilatations lasting for 7.5 (2–108) months. Two more patients, after 7 and 15 dilatations, had mild dysphagia, not interfering with their daily living. One patient, in whom the initial dilatation attempt with 3 atm was unsuccessful, and two patients with persistent symptoms and growth retardation despite ongoing dilatation treatment, underwent surgery. After 48 (12–132) months of follow-up, 17 patients were symptom-free. Conclusion Conservative treatment with esophageal balloon dilatations is an efficient and reliable modality that can be used as a first-line treatment in CES. Surgical treatment option should be used when dilatation attempt is unsuccessful, or symptoms and growth retardation persist despite dilatation treatment. spaces/1/content/6402/file_7825_2023-02-15_08-00-10.mp4 2023-02-15T08:00:10+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6262 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6262/thumbnail_6262_2023-01-04_16-00-10.jpg Does sutureless gastroschisis lead to more periumbilical hernias?

Fraser et.al.    Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(22)00250-0/fulltext Abstract Introduction We evaluate the incidence, outcomes, and management of peri‑umbilical hernias after sutured or sutureless gastroschisis closure. Methods A retrospective, longitudinal follow-up of neonates with gastroschisis who underwent closure at 11 children's hospitals from 2013 to 2016 was performed. Patient encounters were reviewed through 2019 to identify the presence of a peri‑umbilical hernia, time to spontaneous closure or repair, and associated complications. Results Of 397 patients, 375 had follow-up data. Sutured closure was performed in 305 (81.3%). A total of 310 (82.7%) infants had uncomplicated gastroschisis. Peri-umbilical hernia incidence after gastroschisis closure was 22.7% overall within a median follow-up of 2.5 years [IQR 1.3,3.9], and higher in those with uncomplicated gastroschisis who underwent primary vs. silo assisted closure (53.0% vs. 17.2%, p< 0.001). At follow-up, 50.0% of sutureless closures had a persistent hernia, while 16.4% of sutured closures had a postoperative hernia of the fascial defect (50.0% vs. 16.4%, p< 0.001). Spontaneous closure was observed in 38.8% of patients within a median of 17 months [9,26] and most frequently observed in those who underwent a sutureless primary closure (52.2%). Twenty-seven patients (31.8%) underwent operative repair within a median of 13 months [7,23.5]. Rate and interval of spontaneous closure or repair were similar between the sutured and sutureless closure groups, with no difference between those who underwent primary vs. silo assisted closure. Conclusion Peri-umbilical hernias after sutured or sutureless gastroschisis closure may be safely observed similar to congenital umbilical hernias as spontaneou https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6262 2023-01-04T16:00:10+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6237 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6237/thumbnail_6237_2022-12-20_22-00-08.jpg JPS Article You should Know: Ultrasound Guided Percutaneous Broviac Placement Check out this JPS article YOU Should know.  Reddy SM, Soccorso G, Lawrence L, et al.

Mulder-de Tollenaer, M.D., Barbara De Bisschop, M.D Full article: nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2207418 BACKGROUND Cyclooxygenase inhibitors are commonly used in infants with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), but the benefit of these drugs is uncertain. METHODS In this multicenter, noninferiority trial, we randomly assigned infants with echocardiographically confirmed PDA (diameter, >1.5 mm, with left-to-right shunting) who were extremely preterm (<28 weeks’ gestational age) to receive either expectant management or early ibuprofen treatment. The composite primary outcome included necrotizing enterocolitis (Bell’s stage IIa or higher), moderate to severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia, or death at 36 weeks’ postmenstrual age. The noninferiority of expectant management as compared with early ibuprofen treatment was defined as an absolute risk difference with an upper boundary of the one-sided 95% confidence interval of less than 10 percentage points. RESULTS A total of 273 infants underwent randomization. The median gestational age was 26 weeks, and the median birth weight was 845 g. A primary-outcome event occurred in 63 of 136 infants (46.3%) in the expectant-management group and in 87 of 137 (63.5%) in the early-ibuprofen group (absolute risk difference, −17.2 percentage points; upper boundary of the one-sided 95% confidence interval [CI], −7.4; P<0.001 for noninferiority).

Authors: Kylie Brandt, Katerina Dukleska, Morgan McKeown, John Brancato, Victoria Grossi, Scott Schoem, Tina Sacco, Jennifer D'Amato, Michael D. Bourque, Brendan T. Campbell Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00056-8/fulltext Abstract Background Esophageal button battery ingestion is a significant problem that can lead to significant complications such as tracheoesophageal fistula, esophageal perforation, and aortoesophageal fistula. Due to this, prompt recognition and treatment is integral in the care of these patients. Methods Patients who presented to a single institution from August 2015 to April 2022 with esophageal button battery ingestion were included in this study. All esophageal button battery ingestion patients were included in a clinical algorithm for Critical Airway Response Team (CART) activation in October 2019. Time from diagnosis to treatment was compared for pre-CART clinical algorithm implementation to post-CART. Results Data on pre-CART patients (n = 6) and post-CART patients (n = 7) was collected. Including esophageal button battery ingestions to CART activations shortened the time from chest x-ray to button battery removal from 73 ± 32 min to 35 ± 11 min (p < 0.05). Conclusion These data highlight the importance of implementation of a clinical care algorithm to shorten the time from diagnosis to treatment in patients with esophageal button battery ingestion.

Olson et. al.  Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(21)00834-4/fulltext Authors: Sydney L. Olson, Martha-Conley E. Ingram, Peter M. Graffy, Peggy M. Murphy, Yao Tian, Jill H. Samis, Jami L. Josefson, Jeffery C. Rastatter, Mehul V. Raval Abstract Background Pediatric thyroidectomy has been identified as a surgical procedure that may benefit from concentrating cases to high-volume surgeons. This systematic review aimed to address the definition of “high-volume surgeon” for pediatric thyroidectomy and to examine the relationship between surgeon volume and outcomes. Methods PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Scopus, Web of Science, ClinicalTrials.gov, and OpenGrey databases were searched for through February 2020 for studies which reported on pediatric thyroidectomy and specified surgeon volume and surgical outcomes. Results Ten studies, encompassing 6430 patients, were included in the review. Five single-center retrospective studies reported only on high-volume surgeons, one single center retrospective study reported on only low-volume surgeons, and four national database studies (2 cross sectional, 2 retrospective reviews) reported outcomes for both high-volume and low-volume surgeons. Majority of patients underwent total thyroidectomy (54.9%); common indications for surgery were malignancy (41.7%) and hyperthyroidism/thyroiditis (40.5%). Rates of transient hypocalcemia (11.4% - 74.2%), transient recurrent laryngeal nerve injury (0% - 9.7%), and bleeding (0.5% - 4.3%) varied across studies. Definitions for high-volume pediatric thyroid surgeons ranged from ≥9 annual pediatric thyroid operations to >200 annual thyroid operations (with >30 pediatric cases). Four studies reported significantly better outcomes, including lower post-operative complications and shorter length of hospital st https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/8182ed21-d38a-4d43-bcc3-f8e9f90717b5/AppleHLS1/704ee65deb024b0b53590e21d210def7.m3u8 2022-12-14T16:00:08+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5405 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/5405/thumbnail_5405_2022-05-19_16-01-24.jpg Update Course 2021: UPDATE COURSE 2020: REVIEW OF LAST YEAR'S IMPORTANT T OPICS General surgery residentRodrigo Gerardo, MD reviews the highlights from the 2020 Update Course including MMP7 for diagnosing biliary atresia, complex gastroschisis, and so much more. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5405 2022-05-19T16:01:24+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5412 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/5412/thumbnail_5412_2022-05-24_12-00-33.jpg Update Course 2021: APSA PDC UPDATES In this APSA PDC session, the Professional Development Committee provides competency maintenance needs for practicing pediatric surgeons and pediatric surgery trainees.

In this video we’ll discuss the way to apply AI in healthcare with some examples. Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell! Host: Em Tombash, MD Currently, roles for AI in medical settings mostly for clinical decision support and imaging analysis. While clinical decision support tools help providers make decisions about treatments, medications, mental health and other patient needs; AI tools are being used to analyze CT scans, x-rays, MRIs in medical imaging. But AI has so much more to give healthcare. https://www.ibm.com/case-studies/innocens-bv-ai A healthcare startup, Innocens BV uses predictive AI to identify infants at risk of developing sepsis by up to several hours, which creates a higher chance for a better outcome for these infants. Neonatologist Dr. David Van Laere who is the Founder of Innocens BV explains their product “The edge computing solution we developed—which uses real-time data from medical sensors and runs on IBM Cloud—reduces the time required to identify at-risk infants by up to several hours. And the fact that it’s 75% accurate in detecting severe sepsis, generating less than one false alarm per week, keeps doctors focused on where it matters most.” Harvard University’s teaching hospital doctors developed AI-enhanced microscopes to scan for harmful bacterias like E. coli and staphylococcus in blood samples at a faster rate than is possible using manual scanning. 25,000 images of blood samples are being used by scientists to teach the machines how to search for bacteria. Now the machines know how to identify and predict harmful bacteria in blood with 95 percent accuracy. Johns Hopkins Hospital uses predictive AI techniques to improve the efficiency of patient operational flow. With some help, AI quickly prioritized hospital activity to benefit patients.

Quaglietta, Joshua K. Ramjist, Jeffrey Antwi, Ashby Kissoondoyal, Eveline Lapidus-Krol, Reto M. Baertschiger Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00040-4/fulltext Abstract Background Global pandemics may limit access to specialized care, delaying diagnosis and treatment of common acute surgical diseases. We analyzed the impact of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on acute appendicitis at an urban tertiary care center. We hypothesize that pandemics are associated with delayed presentation and worsened clinical sequelae, specifically, higher incidences of perforation in children. Methods We retrospectively assessed patients admitted to our institution with acute appendicitis in pre-pandemic control (February 2018–June 2019) and COVID-19 (February 2020–June 2021) cohorts. Primary outcomes included complicated appendicitis rates (perforation/abscess/bowel obstruction), COVID-19 status, complications and travel distance to our institution. 1107 patients met inclusion criteria: 491 (44.4%) during the control period and 616 (55.6%) in the COVID-19 cohort. Statistical analysis involved t-tests, contingency tables and logistic regression modelling for key variables. Results A larger proportion of complicated appendicitis occurred during COVID-19 compared to controls (28.3% vs 38.8%, p < 0.001). Symptom duration at presentation and length of stay were not significantly different. Duration of antibiotic treatment, surgery length, readmission rate and travel distances were significantly higher during COVID-19. The pre-pandemic cohort had a significantly younger age distribution. Conclusion Pediatric appendicitis was significantly impacted during COVID-19, demonstrated by increased rates of complicated appendicitis, surgery duration an https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6837 2023-07-12T18:00:10+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9237 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9237/thumbnail_10792_2024-10-03_09-30-07.jpg 2024 Fetal Care Center Frontiers in Fetal Neurology Day 1 - Dr. Dawn Gano Dr. Dawn Gano speaks on the fetal intracranial hemorrhage on Day 1 of the Frontiers in Fetal Neurology 2-day interactive webinar series. spaces/17/content/9237/file_10792_2024-10-03_09-30-07.mp4 2024-10-03T09:30:07+00:00 1 channel#live_event_content #day1fetal Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9236 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9236/thumbnail_10791_2024-10-03_09-30-07.jpg 2024 Fetal Care Center Frontiers in Fetal Neurology Day 1 - Dr. DonnaMaria Cortezzo Dr. DonnaMaria Cortezzo speaks on the role of palliative care in fetal counseling on Day 1 of the Frontiers in Fetal Neurology 2-day interactive webinar series. spaces/17/content/9236/file_10791_2024-10-03_09-30-07.mp4 2024-10-03T09:30:07+00:00 channel#live_event_content #day1fetal Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/633 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/633/thumbnail_720_2018-11-10_00-05-17.jpg Tricks - Laparoscopic Epigastric Herniorrhaphy This segment displays a presentation of laparoscopic epigastric herniorrhaphy, followed by a comprehensive discussion discussion.  spaces/1/content/633/file_720_2018-11-10_00-05-17.mp4 2018-11-10T00:05:17+00:00 11 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9235 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9235/thumbnail_10790_2024-10-03_09-29-21.jpg 2024 Fetal Care Center Frontiers in Fetal Neurology Day 1 - Dr. Sonika Agarwal Dr. Sonika Agarwal speaks on the genetic conditions leading to brain malformations on Day 1 of the Frontiers in Fetal Neurology 2-day interactive webinar series. spaces/17/content/9235/file_10790_2024-10-03_09-29-21.mp4 2024-10-03T09:29:21+00:00 channel#live_event_content #day1fetal Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9233 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9233/thumbnail_10788_2024-10-03_09-06-00.jpg 2024 Fetal Care Center Frontiers in Fetal Neurology Day 1 - Introduction Dr. Charu Venkatesen and Dr. Kara Markham opents Day 1 of the Frontiers in Fetal Neurology 2-day interactive webinar series. spaces/17/content/9233/file_10788_2024-10-03_09-06-00.mp4 2024-10-03T09:06:00+00:00 1 channel#live_event_content #day1fetal Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10907 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/10907/thumbnail_10907_1_1756399048112.jpg 2025 Pediatric Surgery Update Course - Top AI Tools of 2025 On August 26th, the largest Pediatric Surgery course in the world each year was held, where top hospital experts from around the US will discuss this year’s changes in practices and innovation.

Risk factors associated with leak and the impact of leak on inpatient outcomes remains uncertain. Our objectives are to estimate the associations between clinical factors and esophageal anastomotic leak and quantify the association of leak with length of stay (LOS) in infants who underwent repair of type C EA/TEF. Methods Using the Children’s Hospitals Neonatal Database (CHND), we identified infants with type C EA/TEF from 2021 to 2023. The main outcomes were anastomotic leak and LOS. Multivariable associations between patient and clinical factors and these outcomes were quantified using logistic regression (leak) and Cox proportional hazards modelling (LOS). Results Among 365 infants at 36 centers, anastomotic leak occurred in 55 (15.1 %) infants, and thoracoscopic approach, lower birthweight, small for gestational age less than 10th percentile, male sex, staged repair, ventricular septal defect, and center were independently associated with leak (area under receiver operating curve = 0.853). Also, LOS was increased in infants with leak compared to those without [hazard ratio (HR): 0.655, 95 % CI = 0.431–0.996, p = 0.044], independent of birth weight, surgical approach, male sex, or VSD. The adjusted LOS demonstrated a 11-fold inter-center variation (p = 0.034). Conclusions Several clinical and operative factors are associated with esophageal anastomotic leak in infants after type C EA/TEF repair. Leak significantly prolongs LOS. The magnitude of inter-center variability in LOS also suggests that identifying best practices could aid in improving patient care in this patient population. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10426 2025-04-29T08:15:58+00:00 1 channel#pediatric_surgery Lizzy Lee neonate anastomosis congenital anomaly EA/TEF pedsurg surgery SoMe4PedSurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8474 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8474/thumbnail_10011_2024-04-04_06-25-46.jpg Update Course Rewind: Peroral endoscopic Myotomy (POEM) for Achalasia We are back with another Update Course Rewind video from the Update course in Pediatric Surgery 2023.

Rialon on behalf of the American Pediatric Surgical Association Outcomes and Evidence-Based Practice Committee Methods: Three questions regarding LM management were generated according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Publicly available databases were queried to identify articles published from January 1, 1990, to December 31, 2021. A consensus statement of recommendations was generated in response to each question. Results: The initial search identified 9326 abstracts, each reviewed by two authors. A total of 600 abstracts met selection criteria for full manuscript review with 202 subsequently utilized for extraction of data. Medical therapy, such as sirolimus, can be used as an adjunct with percutaneous treatments or surgery, or for extensive LM. Sclerotherapy can achieve partial or complete response in over 90% of patients and is most effective for macrocystic lesions. Depending on the size, extent, and location of the malformation, surgery can be considered. Conclusion: Evidence supporting best practices for the safety and effectiveness of management for LMs is currently of moderate quality. Many patients benefit from multi-modal treatment determined by the extent and type of LM. A multidisciplinary approach is recommended to determine the optimal individualized treatment for each patient. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9593 2024-12-31T17:48:06+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10425 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/10425/f9fc1f8582d44b30bddadbd183c14f2c.jpg Appendicectomy versus antibiotics for acute uncomplicated appendicitis in children: an open-label, international, multicentre, randomised, non-inferiority trial Appendicectomy versus antibiotics for acute uncomplicated appendicitis in children: an open-label, international, multicentre, randomised, non-inferiority trial] Shawn D St Peter, Janelle R Noel-MacDonnell, Nigel J Hall, Simon Eaton, Janne S Suominen, Tomas Wester, Jan F Svensson, Markus Almström, E Pete Muenks, Marianne Beaudin, Nelson Piché, Mary Brindle, Ali MacRobieh, Richard Keijzer, Helene Engstrand Lilja, Ann-Marie Kassa, Tim Jancelewicz, Andreana Butter, Jacob Davidson, Erik Skarsgard, Yap Te-Lu, Shireen Nah, Andrew R Willan, Agostino Pierro Background Support for the treatment of uncomplicated appendicitis with non-operative management rather than surgery has been increasing in the literature. We aimed to investigate whether treatment of uncomplicated appendicitis with antibiotics in children is inferior to appendicectomy by comparing failure rates for the two treatments. Methods In this pragmatic, multicentre, parallel-group, unmasked, randomised, non-inferiority trial, children aged 5–16 years with suspected non-perforated appendicitis (based on clinical diagnosis with or without radiological diagnosis) were recruited from 11 children's hospitals in Canada, the USA, Finland, Sweden, and Singapore. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to the antibiotic or the appendicectomy group with an online stratified randomisation tool, with stratification by sex, institution, and duration of symptoms (≥48 h vs <48 h). The primary outcome was treatment failure within 1 year of random assignment. In the antibiotic group, failure was defined as removal of the appendix, and in the appendicectomy group, failure was defined as a normal appendix based on pathology. In both groups, failure was also defined as additional procedures related to appendicitis requiring general anaesthesia. Interim analysis was done to determine whether inferiority was to be declared at the halfway point. We used a non-inferiority design with a margin of 20%.

This study sought to compare outcomes of OSS and TO for patients with ovarian torsion. Methods Females 50 covariates (demographics, medical comorbidities, ovarian diagnoses, etc.) was constructed between those receiving TO and OSS. Results There were 3,161 females (median 15 [12–18] years) with ovarian torsion, and concomitant pathologies included cysts (42%), benign masses (25%), and malignant masses (<1%). Open approaches were more common (52% vs. 48% laparoscopic), and ovarian resection (OSS or TO) was performed in 87% (39% OSS and 48% TO). OSS was more commonly performed with laparoscopic detorsions (60% vs. 40% TO), while TO was more frequent in open operations (59% vs. 41% TO; both p < 0.001). No differences in overall readmissions (7% OSS vs. 8% TO) or readmissions for recurrent torsion (<1% overall) and ovarian masses (<1%) were observed (both groups <1%; p = 0.612). After PSMA, laparoscopy was still utilized less frequently with TO (39% vs. 53%; p < 0.001) despite similar rates of malignant masses. Conclusions Overall, these data offer additional support for the current practice guidelines that give preference to OSS as the primary method of treatment for pediatric ovarian torsion in the majority of cases.

Analizamos el impacto de la nueva pandemia de la enfermedad por coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) en la apendicitis aguda en un centro urbano de atención terciaria. Nuestra hipótesis es que las pandemias se asocian con una presentación tardía y un empeoramiento de las secuelas clínicas, específicamente, una mayor incidencia de perforación en niños. Métodos Evaluamos retrospectivamente a los pacientes ingresados ​​en nuestra institución con apendicitis aguda en las cohortes de control prepandemia (febrero de 2018 a junio de 2019) y COVID-19 (febrero de 2020 a junio de 2021). Los resultados primarios incluyeron tasas de apendicitis complicada (perforación/absceso/obstrucción intestinal), estado de COVID-19, complicaciones y distancia de viaje a nuestra institución. 1107 pacientes cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión: 491 (44,4%) durante el período de control y 616 (55,6%) en la cohorte COVID-19. El análisis estadístico involucró pruebas t, tablas de contingencia y modelos de regresión logística para variables clave. Resultados Se produjo una mayor proporción de apendicitis complicada durante la COVID-19 en comparación con los controles (28,3 % frente a 38,8 %, p < 0,001). La duración de los síntomas en el momento de la presentación y la duración de la estancia no fueron significativamente diferentes. La duración del tratamiento con antibióticos, la duración de la cirugía, la tasa de readmisión y las distancias de viaje fueron significativamente más altas durante la COVID-19. La cohorte prepandémica tenía una distribución de edad significativamente más joven. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6838 2023-07-13T00:00:12+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6476 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6476/thumbnail_6476_2023-03-14_22-00-11.jpg Caudal duplication stimulation Marc A.

Notrica, Lisa E. McMahon, Paul Kang, Mark S. Molitor, J. Craig Egan, Jae-O Bae, Zebediah M. Hunteman, Daniel J. Ostlie, Justin H. Lee, Benjamin E. Padilla Full article: https://gcmd.co/3M28m8k Introduction Current studies show cryoablation decreases opioid requirements and lengths of stay (LOS) in patients undergoing the Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum. This study evaluated the relationship between cryoablation and clinical outcomes for the Nuss procedure. Methods A retrospective single-center chart review was performed on patients undergoing the Nuss procedure with intercostal cryoablation from December 2017-August 2021. Demographics, hospital course, and postoperative complications were abstracted. To evaluate the evolution of outcomes over time, the earliest quarter (Q1) of cryoablation patients was compared to the last quarter (Q4). Results Over 45 months, 350 Nuss procedures with cryoablation were performed. The mean age at operation was 15.7 ± 2.3 years with an average Haller Index of 5.4 ± 4.2. The mean operative time was 136 ± 40.5 minutes. On average, patients used 2.8 ± 2.5 OME/kg of opioid in hospital with a LOS of 2.7 ± 1.1 days. The Q4 patients were discharged 1.3 days earlier (p<0.05) than Q1 patients, with 80% of Q4 discharged by postoperative day #2 vs. 23% in Q1 (p<0.05). Q4 patients received 74% (p<0.05) less opioid in hospital and 21% (p<0.05) less on discharge. Within 90 days postoperatively, complication rates (chest tube placement, wound infection, readmission, neuropathic pain) were similar. Only two patients (0.6%) required reoperation for bar migration/slippage. Conclusion With increased experience, cryoablation for the Nuss procedure decreased opioid use by 74% and was associated with 80% of patients achieving early discharge.

Tecos, Allie E. Steinberger, Jun Guo, Deborah C. Rubin, Nicholas O. Davidson, Brad W. Warner Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00152-5/fulltext Background Massive small bowel resection (SBR) is associated with liver injury and fibrosis. Efforts to elucidate the driving force behind hepatic injury have identified multiple factors, including the generation of toxic bile acid metabolites. Methods Sham, 50% proximal, and 50% distal SBR were carried out in C57BL/6 mice to determine the effect of jejunal (proximal SBR) versus ileocecal resection (distal SBR) on bile acid metabolism and liver injury. Tissues were harvested at 2 and 10-week postoperative timepoints. Results When compared with 50% proximal SBR, mice that underwent distal SBR exhibited less hepatic oxidative stress as verified by decreased mRNA expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα, p ≤ 0.0001), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX, p ≤ 0.0001), and glutathione synthetase (GSS, p ≤ 0.05). Distal SBR mice also exhibited a more hydrophilic bile acid profile with reduced abundance of insoluble bile acids (cholic acid (CA), taurodeoxycholic acid (TCA), and taurolithocholic acid (TLCA)), and increased abundance of soluble bile acids (tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA)). In contrast with proximal SBR, ileocecal resection alters enterohepatic circulation leading to reduced oxidative stress and promotes physiological bile acid metabolism. Conclusion These findings challenge the notion that preservation of the ileocecal region is beneficial in patients with short bowel syndrome. Administration of selected bile acids may present potential therapy to mitigate resection-associated liver injury. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7050 2023-08-23T22:00:12+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6467 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6467/thumbnail_6467_2023-03-14_16-00-13.jpg Colostomy closure (no audio) Marc, A.

However, open surgical biopsy remains common practice even if children undergo more invasive and painful procedures. This review aims to determine the diagnostic accuracy and safety of IGCNBs in pediatric patients with neuroblastoma. Methods We conducted a systematic review of peer-reviewed original articles published between 1980 and 2023, by searching "pediatric oncology," "biopsy," "interventional radiology," and "neuroblastoma." Exclusion criteria were patients older than 18 years, studies concerning non-neurogenic tumors, case reports, and language other than English. Both the systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. Results A total of 533 abstracts articles were analyzed. Of these, eight retrospective studies met inclusion criteria (490 infants, 270 surgical biopsies [SB], 220 image-guided biopsies). Tissue adequacy for primary diagnosis (SB: n = 265, 98%; IGCNB: n = 199, 90%; p = .1) and biological characterization (SB: n = 186, 95%; IGCNB: n = 109, 89%; p = .15) was similar with both biopsy techniques, while intraoperative transfusion rate (SB: n = 51, 22%; IGCNB: n = 12, 6%; p = .0002) and complications (%) (SB: n = 58, 2 https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7988 2024-02-14T16:00:06+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5139 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/7/content/5139/thumbnail_5139_2022-03-07_16-00-11.jpg Cool kids do Basic Science Richard Wagner Boston Children’s Hospital Richard Kejizer University of Mannitoba Moderated by Martin Lacher and Augusto Zani August 12th, 2021 spaces/7/content/5139/file_6386_2022-03-07_16-00-11.mp4 2022-03-07T16:00:11+00:00 2 Medical Education yes EUPSA/ERNICA no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1287 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1287/thumbnail_1457_2019-03-19_22-36-07.jpg Valuable Techniques For Diaphragmatic Hernia Repair Guest video: Valuable Techniques For Diaphragmatic Hernia Repair by Marcelo Martinez Ferro and Carolina Milan from Fundacion Hospitalaria Private Children's Hospital in Buenos Aries, Argentina. https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/9bc5b5b3-29d1-4349-9a6c-25e3d858babe/AppleHLS1/77292e76fa97d0d8bd1712811712b304.m3u8 2019-03-19T22:36:07+00:00 32 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9738 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/9738/thumbnail_11301_2025-01-31_07-51-45.jpg Conservative Management of Necrotizing Enterocolitis in Newborns: Incidence and Management of Intestinal Strictures Rach Mena, Gabriela Guillén, Sergio Lopez-Fernandez, Marta Martos Rodríguez, César W Ruiz, Alicia Montaner-Ramon, Manuel López, José A Molino Background: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is one of the main causes of acute abdomen in neonates. Surgical treatment entails important morbidity and mortality and conservative management, when possible, offers better outcomes. Post-NEC intestinal strictures are one of the main complications. Methods: Retrospective analysis from June 2011 to November 2022 of post-NEC strictures (PNS) after conservative management of neonates diagnosed with NEC (modified Bell stage IIA or higher) at a tertiary neonatal surgery center. Results: Out of 219 NEC, 126 received initial conservative management (57.5%), 24 (19%) of which eventually underwent surgery for PNS. Average gestational age and weight at birth of our cohort were 31.3 ± 4.9 weeks and 1,694 ± 1,009 g.PNS diagnosis was made 38.4 ± 16.5 days after the NEC episode. 6/24 (25%) were asymptomatic and diagnosed by screening enema, 11 (46%) presented signs of intestinal obstruction before the enema could be performed and 7 (29%) after a normal previous protocol study.Median age at PNS surgery was 56 ± 17.9 days. A total of 2/3 strictures were found in cecum, ascendent, and transverse colon. Primary resection and anastomosis were performed in all cases. Feeds were restarted on postoperative day 4.3 ± 2.9. Two cases presented anastomotic complications (1 dehiscence and 1 stenosis), and no deaths were recorded. Conclusions: PNS is a frequent complication after conservative management. Deffered surgical treatment after the acute NEC episode is resolved allows for safer surgeries (since patients have reached hemodynamical stability and overcome septic shock), shorter resections, and favorable postoperative outcomes. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9738 2025-01-31T07:51:45+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6772 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/6772/thumbnail_6772_2023-06-28_18-00-10.jpg La búsqueda agresiva de ausencia de evidencia del estado de la enfermedad en el hepatoblastoma mejora la supervivencia Otro articulo que tenes que conocer por Cecilia Gigena  “La búsqueda agresiva de ausencia de evidencia del estado de la enfermedad en el hepatoblastoma mejora la supervivencia” Fleming A.

Examinamos el efecto de la búsqueda agresiva del estado NED sobre la supervivencia libre de eventos (SSC) y general (SG) en el hepatoblastoma con análisis de subgrupos de pacientes de alto riesgo. Métodos Se consultaron los registros hospitalarios de pacientes con hepatoblastoma de 2005 a 2021. Los resultados primarios fueron la SG y la SSC estratificadas por riesgo y estado de NED. Las comparaciones de grupos se realizaron mediante análisis univariado y regresión logística simple. Las diferencias de supervivencia se compararon con pruebas de rango logarítmico. Resultados Cincuenta pacientes consecutivos con hepatoblastoma fueron tratados. Cuarenta y uno (82%) se convirtieron en NED. NED se correlacionó inversamente con la mortalidad a 5 años (OR 0,006; IC 0,001–0,056; P < 0,01). La SG a diez años (P < 0,01) y la SSC (P < 0,01) mejoraron al lograr NED. La SG a diez años fue similar entre 24 pacientes de alto riesgo y 26 sin riesgo alto cuando se alcanzó la NED (p = 0,83). Catorce pacientes de alto riesgo fueron sometidos a una mediana de 2,5 metastasectomías pulmonares, 7 por enfermedad unilateral y 7 por bilateral, con una mediana de 4,5 nódulos resecados.

We sought to determine if operative management was associated with a lower rate of recurrence compared to non-operative management (NOM). Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study of children with ASBO admitted to nine hospitals from 10/2020 to 12/2022 who underwent a trial of NOM. Children were followed for a year after admission. The primary outcome was readmission for recurrent ASBO. Adjusted comparisons were made between children successfully managed nonoperatively at the index admission and those who underwent surgery. Results: Among 136 children, 87 (63.9%) had successful NOM at the index admission. Within 1 year, twenty patients (14.7%; 17/87 NOM group; 3/49 operative group) had recurrent ASBO. On unadjusted analysis, there was a higher risk of recurrent ASBO in the NOM group (19.5 vs. 6.1%, P=0.04). However, after adjusting for age (HR 0.35, CI 0.10-1.23), there was no significant difference. Among patients with recurrent ASBO, 7/20 (35%) underwent an urgent or emergent operation at readmission; this rate was similar between initial management groups. Conclusion: Although the rate of recurrent ASBO in children is nearly 15% within one year, this rate does not differ based on the initial management strategy.

We sought to examine the effects of MIRPE on exercise response during cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET). Methods: A prospective-pilot study was conduct of patients ≤18 years who presented for pectus bar removal. All patients had CPET prior to MIRPE and following bar removal. Paired sample T tests were used to compare pre- and post-MIRPE CPET results. Results: Twenty-five patients completed post-MIRPE CPET (72 % male, median age 18.6 [IQR:17.5-19.8]). The median Haller and correction indices were 4.5 and 29.4 %, respectively. There was significant increase in O2Pulse, (10.3 vs 12.1 mL/beat, p = 0.004), and percent predicted O2Pulse (79.5% vs 84.4 %, p = 0.046) following MIRPE/bar removal. The peak-VO2/kg and did not change significantly following MIRPE/bar removal; however, peak-VO2 (ml/min) increased. Patients with decreased activity levels at time of bar removal compared to pre-MIRPE had decreased peak-VO2/kg and predicted peak-VO2/kg. Conclusion: Following MIRPE, patients experience increased in O2Pulse, which is a surrogate measure of stroke volume response to exercise and may reflect relief of cardiac compression. Cardiopulmonary function is multifactorial and despite improvement in stroke volume, other factors may impact exercise capacity (VO2) following MIRPE. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10436 2025-04-29T10:22:20+00:00 1 LizzyLee MIRPE CPET cardiopulmonary exercise stress test cardiopulmonary function minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum pectus excavatum Nuss procedure pedsurg JPS Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10437 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/10437/3a2989f0f9a521b1487661c8c3306598.jpg Educational Outcomes in School-Aged Children With a History of Simple and Complex Gastroschisis are Poor Compared to Controls Osamuyi Asemota, Gabrielle Derraugh, Matthew Levesque, Anna C Shawyer, Suyin A Lum Min, Richard Keijzer Background: Research on long-term cognitive outcomes of children with gastroschisis is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to compare the educational outcomes of children with gastroschisis to age-matched controls using a population-based repository of educational data. Methods: We performed a retrospective study of all children born with gastroschisis between 1991 and 2022. We compared the educational outcomes of children with simple and complex gastroschisis to date-of-birth matched controls using the: Early Development Instrument (EDI) and Grades 3, 7, and 8 assessments. We used odds ratio (OR) to compare the likelihood of children with gastroschisis failing an assessment compared to controls. We did subgroup analyses for simple and complex gastroschisis cases. Results: A total of 208 gastroschisis cases and 2075 controls were included. There were 136 children with simple gastroschisis and 72 children with complex gastroschisis. Children with gastroschisis were more likely to fail a middle school assessment than controls (OR = 2.93, 95%CI = 1.73, 5.09). Even children with simple gastroschisis were more likely to fail a middle school assessment (OR = 2.66, 95%CI = 1.42, 5.13). Moreover, children with severe gastroschisis were at even greater odds of failing a middle school assessment than controls (OR = 4.57, 95%CI = 1.71, 13.60). Conclusion: The academic performance of children born with gastroschisis, both simple and complex, is inferior to age-matched controls in middle school. Caregivers should be aware of the ongoing challenges that children born with gastroschisis face and seek early support. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10437 2025-04-29T10:26:46+00:00 education LizzyLee JPedsurg surgery gastroschisis neurodevelopment channel#pediatric_surgery Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7568 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7568/thumbnail_9079_2023-11-06_16-00-09.jpeg Intestinal Rehabilitation Webinar Pediatric Intestinal Failure is a complex condition with potential for high morbidity.

Aanena, René M.H. Wijnena, Bas Pullensb, John Vlota Background: Oesophageal atresia (OA) is often accompanied by tracheomalacia (TM). The aim of this study was to evaluate its presence in OA patients during routine rigid tracheobronchoscopy (TBS) before primary correction and compare this to postoperative TBS and clinical signs of TM. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included patients born with OA between June 2013 and December 2022 who had received a TBS before OA correction and had been followed for at least twelve months. Definite TM was postoperatively diagnosed through TBS, and probable TM was defined as having symptoms of TM. Results: We analysed data from 79 patients, of whom 87% with OA type C. Preoperatively, TM was observed in 33 patients (42% of all patients), seven of whom had severe TM. Definite TM was observed in 21 patients (27%), of whom 15 had severe TM. Forty-one patients (52% of all patients) had developed symptoms of TM within twelve months, including harsh barking cough (n = 15), stridor and/or wheezing (n = 20), recurrent respiratory insufficiency (n = 11), or needing airway surgery (n = 7). The sensitivity of preoperative TBS for the presence of postoperative (definite and probable combined) TM is 50.0%, 95% CI [35.2–64.8], and the specificity 67.6%, 95% CI [51.7–81.1]. Clinical characteristics did not differ between the patients with or without postoperative TM. Conclusions: More than half of the studied patients with OA experienced symptoms of TM. While preoperative TBS is routinely performed prior to surgical OA correction, its predictive value for the presence of postoperative TM remains limited. spaces/1/content/9891/file_9891_2025-02-18_19-47-11.mp4 2025-02-18T19:47:11+00:00 3 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2238 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/2238/thumbnail_3164_2020-02-24_19-58-22.jpg Cloacal Endoscopy This video appears in a new pediatric surgery textbook, Clinical Pediatric Surgery: A Case-Based Interactive Approach," by Dr. Sherif Emil.

The incidence of ASBO is higher in paediatric surgery than in adult surgery. However, ASBO related complications, economic burden and clear management guidelines in the treatment of ASBO are lacking. The aims of this study were to investigate underlying diagnoses, treatments, complications and costs in paediatric ASBO. Method An observational retrospective study in children 0–15 years, hospitalised for ASBO during 2000–2020. Data were extracted from the medical records. Complications were classified based on Clavien Dindo Classification of Surgical Complications. Descriptive statistics were presented as median, continuous variables and categorical variables summarised with frequencies. Time to ASBO was presented as a Kaplan–Meier estimate. Results In total, 101 patients with 137 episodes of ASBO were included whereof 58.4% underwent first (index) surgery during the neonatal period. Median follow-up was 11.3 (0.6–19) years and median time to the first ASBO was 3.76 months (95%CI 2.23–12.02). The most common diagnoses at index surgery were necrotising enterocolitis, duodenal obstruction and primary ASBO. In 86.6% of the patients, first ASBO did not resolve with conservative treatment and a laparotomy was needed. Postoperative complications were found in 52%. Median cost for one episode of acute ASBO was 36 236 USD (1629–236 159).

Methods: The American Pediatric Surgical Association (APSA) Outcomes and Evidenced-based Practice Committee (OEBPC) developed three a priori questions about gastroschisis for a qualitative systematic review. We reviewed English-language publications between January 1, 1970, and December 31, 2019. This project describes the findings of a systematic review of the three questions regarding: 1) optimal delivery timing, 2) antibiotic use, and 3) closure considerations. Results: 1339 articles were screened for eligibility; 92 manuscripts were selected and reviewed. The included studies had a Level of Evidence that ranged from 2 to 4 and recommendation Grades B-D. Twenty-eight addressed optimal timing of delivery, 5 pertained to antibiotic use, and 59 discussed closure considerations (Figure 1). Delivery after 37 weeks post-conceptual age is considered optimal. Prophylactic antibiotics covering skin flora are adequate to reduce infection risk until definitive closure. Studies support primary fascial repair, without staged silo reduction, when abdominal domain and hemodynamics permit. A sutureless repair is safe, effective, and does not delay feeding or extend length of stay. Sedation and intubation are not routinely required for a sutureless closure. Conclusions: Despite the large number of studies addressing the above-mentioned facets of gastroschisis management, the data quality is poor. A wide variation in gastroschisis management was documented, indicating a need for high quality RCTs to provide an evidence-based approa https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9626 2025-01-10T09:53:25+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6346 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/6346/thumbnail_6346_2023-02-06_18-00-12.jpg BOB Ped Surg 2023 - Christina Theodorou, CAPS - Presentation Watch Christina Theodorou, MD, present her presentation on "Evaluation of a novel biodegradable polyurethane patch for repair of diaphragmatic hernia in a rat model: a pilot study." https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6346 2023-02-06T18:00:12+00:00 2 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/674 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/674/thumbnail_674_2018-11-10_00-05-20.jpg Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia: Update Course 2015 Dr. Mark Wulkan presents on congenital diaphragmatic hernias.

Woodward, Stephanie F. Brierley, Krystle Bittner, Katherine Foote, Hector Osei, Carroll M. Harmon & P. Benson Ham III Purpose Practice patterns of same-day discharge for pediatric laparoscopic appendectomy for non-perforated appendicitis are not well-analyzed. Our aim is to evaluate current practice patterns and outcomes of same-day discharge for these patients. Methods NSQIP-P retrospective registry identified patients (2017–2021) who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy for non-perforated appendicitis. Annual same-day discharge (SDD) rate was determined. SDD patients were compared to those discharged postoperative days 1–2 (non-SDD). Sub-group analysis was performed on ICD-10 code K35.30. Regression was performed. Results Overall, 67,214 patients were identified. The SDD rate increased from 33.3% (2017) to 52.5% (2021) with decreased 30-day readmissions between SDD and non-SDD (1.3% vs 2.1%, p < 0.001). Sub-group analysis identified 7,330 patients with SDD rates from 50.7% (2019) to 60.4% (2021) with decreased 30-day readmissions (1.3% vs 2.1%, p < 0.001) for SDD versus non-SDD. No increase in adverse events for SDD occurred in either analysis. Regression identified esophageal/gastric/intestinal diseases increased odds of early readmission or reoperation (OR 1.85, p = 0.042). Conclusion Same-day discharge after pediatric laparoscopic appendectomy for non-perforated acute appendicitis continues to increase in frequency without a significant increase in adverse outcomes. SDD rates are 20–30% lower than previously published single-center studies, indicating there is a likely a larger percentage of patients that could discharge same-day https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10429 2025-04-29T08:22:27+00:00 channel#pediatric_surgery LizzyLee pedsurg NSQIP appendectomy laparoscopic discharge readmission Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7648 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/7/content/7648/thumbnail_9161_2023-11-15_16-00-06.JPG Transition of Care - Alcohol and Smoking   Animation video on Alcohol and Smoking, from the video series 'Transition of Care'.

New article you should know! by Cecilia Gigena "The natural history of prenatally diagnosed congenital pulmonary airway malformations and bronchopulmonary sequestrations" Matilda Karlsson https://bit.ly/3B2KCfv. Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(22)00253-6/fulltext #SoMe4PedSurg #pedsurg Journal of Pediatric Surgery Abstract Background The natural history of congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAM) and bronchopulmonary sequestrations (BPS) is not fully understood, and the management of the newborn with an asymptomatic lesion is a controversial issue. We aimed to study the natural history and outcome of CPAM/BPS at our institution with a policy of watchful waiting, and to investigate if any prognostic factors in the pre- and/or postnatal- period may predict the need for surgery. Material and methods A retrospective review study was conducted of children prenatally diagnosed with CPAM and/or BPS during the 18-year period, from 2002 to 2020. Data from the pre and postnatal period was collected and analysed. Results Sixty- six patients with prenatally observed lung lesions were entered in the study, with an overall survival rate of 94%. Fifty-six percent of the lesions decreased in size during gestation. Thirty-one percent had surgery and 69% could be managed conservatively with a median follow-up of 4 years. Nineteen percent developed symptoms after the neonatal period. Children with a presence of mediastinal shift on postnatal imaging (p = 0.003), with a high CVR (p = 0.005) and a large lesion size during gestation (p = 0.014) were significantly more likely to require surgery. Conclusion Prenatal regression is common among prenatally diagnosed CPAM/BPS and the majority of children that are asymptomatic beyond the neonatal period will remain asymptomatic throughout their childhood. Future analysis with a longer follow-up might give new insights in order to identify children at risk of developing symptoms https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/6e450be9-9799-4441-83d1-5d673eaeeade/AppleHLS1/a4de960ce47b78a141baf63b46473da7.m3u8 2022-11-16T22:00:07+00:00 3 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10155 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/10155/4cc3ec7a247c5d53efc15091900c7ced.jpg Scoping it Out: The Use of Laparoscopy After Penetrating Trauma in Stable Children Utsav M. Patwardhan, Casey R. Erwin, Alexandra S. Rooney, Bryan Campbell, Benjamin Keller, Andrea Krzyzaniak, Vishal Bansal, Michael J. Sise, Michael J. Krzyzaniak, Romeo C. Ignacio Jr. Introduction: In stable children with penetrating abdominal trauma, literature regarding the use of laparoscopy (LAP) remains limited. Given increasing evidence in favor of LAP for selective adult trauma patients, we reviewed contemporary practices and outcomes in pediatric trauma patients. Methods: The American College of Surgeons (ACS) Trauma Quality Programs data was utilized to identify children (<18 years) from 2016 to 2021 with a penetrating abdominal injury who underwent surgery within 24 h of admission. Patients with non-abdominal abbreviated injury score (AIS) 3, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) <13, or instability using a shock index pediatric adjusted (SIPA) cutoff were excluded. Patients were compared based on whether they had LAP, open, or laparoscopic converted to open (LCO) exploration. Primary outcomes were length of stay (LOS) and complications, including missed injuries. Results: Among 1945 patients who underwent abdominal surgery for penetrating trauma, 32% were stabbed and 68% had gunshot wounds (GSW). LAP occurred in 235 (12%) and LCO in 145 (7.4%) patients. The proportion of LAP did not change over the study period. LAP was used more in patients presenting with stab wounds than GSW (24% vs. 7%, p < .01). There was higher use of LAP at pediatric centers (p < .01). Although there was no difference in mortality or complications by operative type, open patients were more severely injured, had a longer LOS (p < .01), and had more subsequent procedures (11% of open, 2% LAP, 7% LCO, p < .01). Conclusion: In stable children with penetrating abdominal trauma, LAP is most often utilized after stabbing and at pediatric trauma centers, but its overall use remains uncommon. LAP patients had lower rates of subsequent procedures and no increase in unexpected operat https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10155 2025-04-01T20:57:33+00:00 1 channel#pediatric_surgery Lizzy Lee jps pedsurg abdominal trauma laparaoscopy laparatomy outcomes penetrating Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6320 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/6320/thumbnail_6320_2023-02-01_22-00-11.jpg BOB in Ped Surg 2023 - CIPESUR Winner - Georgina Falcioni, MD Watch the CIPESUR winner, Georgina Falcioni, MD, present her presentation on "Comparative effectiveness of Telesimulation vs standard simulation for MIS essential skills training." https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6320 2023-02-01T22:00:11+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6363 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/6363/thumbnail_6363_2023-02-06_18-00-13.jpg BOB Ped Surg 2023 - Basma Magdy, PAPSA - Presentation Watch Dr. Basma Magdy present her presentation on "Thoracoscopic posterior tracheopexy in esophageal atresia patients, single institute experience." https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6363 2023-02-06T18:00:13+00:00 2 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1540 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1540/thumbnail_1780_2019-07-20_12-00-06.jpg Suspected Hirschsprung's-associated enterocolitis (HAEC) Treatment Guideline...

Xu, Rachel E. Hanke, Kirsten Das, Melanie Bowser, Butool Hisam, Inbal Samuk, Hussein Wissanji, Erin Teeple, Allison Mayhew, John S. Myseros, Andrea Badillo, Marc A. Levitt,Briony K. Varda, Christina Feng Introduction: Spinal cord and gynecologic anomalies may be overlooked as part of the traditional VACTERL screening for patients with anorectal malformations (ARM). We investigated the rates of associated anomalies in patients with ARM using the Pediatric Health Information Systems (PHIS) database. Methods: A retrospective multi-institutional cohort study was performed between 1/2016-12/2022. ARM patients were identified using ICD10 diagnosis and procedure codes. We assessed the rate of associated anomaly diagnosis at a patient's initial newborn admission and across all hospital encounters using ICD10 diagnosis codes. Results: 1467 patients (34 % female) were observed across 46 hospitals. The rates of VACTERL diagnoses on initial admission were 35.0 % vertebral/spinal, 72.9 % cardiac, 9.5 % TEF, 34.7 % renal, and 13.3 % limb. Diagnosis rates were all higher across all hospital encounters: 45.4 % vertebral/spinal, 77.4 % cardiac, 10.2 % TEF, 39.9 % renal, and 15.7 % limb. Among female patients, 16.1 % had a congenital gynecologic malformation diagnosed at birth and 25.8 % across all hospital encounters. Among sub-category diagnoses, the rates of lower Mullerian tract malformations (+11 %), spinal cord malformations (+12 %), and vesicoureteral reflux (+14 %) had the greatest discrepancy between newborn diagnosis and diagnosis across all hospital encounters on a one-tailed comparison of proportions (all p < 0.001) Conclusion: The most commonly associated anomalies in ARM are cardiac, vertebral/spinal, renal, and gynecologic (in females). Many are diagnosed as newborns however some are diagnosed later, suggesting an opportunity to improve screening, especially with spinal cord and gynecologic malformations.

As more institutions embrace this technique, Dr. Lautz breaks down its use, safety, and clinical advantages for thoracotomy pain control. Key Highlights: Beyond Pectus Repair: While commonly used for pectus excavatum, cryoanalgesia is now being applied in thoracotomy cases to improve postoperative recovery. How It Works: Temporary nerve blockade is achieved by freezing the intercostal nerves, reducing or eliminating the need for epidurals and long-term opioids. Safety & Recovery: The procedure is safe, repeatable, and allows even small children to benefit from reduced pain and faster recovery timelines. Clinical Implementation: Dr. Lautz offers insight into when and how his team applies cryo, including tips for technique, timing, and avoiding complications. This talk underscores the value of multidisciplinary collaboration and highlights how surgical innovation can reduce patient discomfort and streamline recovery. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10574 2025-06-18T09:07:10+00:00 1 cryoanalgesia update course update course rewind update course 2024 pediatric thoracotomy Pectus repair pain control pectus excavatum postoperative recovery intercostal nerves Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7735 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/7735/thumbnail_9250_2023-11-29_22-00-08.jpg Guías APSA actualizadas para el tratamiento de lesiones contusas del hígado y del bazo Nuevo artículo que debes conocer del Journal of Pediatric Surgery de la Dra.

Varios artículos han ampliado las pautas originales y se han investigado terapias adicionales para mejorar la atención de estos pacientes. Con base en una revisión de la literatura y el consenso actual, se presentan las pautas de manejo para el tratamiento de lesiones contusas del hígado y del bazo. Métodos Se utilizó una revisión bibliográfica reciente realizada por el comité de resultados de APSA [2] como base para las recomendaciones de la guía. Se formó un grupo de trabajo del Comité de Trauma de la APSA para revisar las pautas originales, la literatura informada por el Comité de Resultados y luego desarrollar una pauta fácil de implementar. Resultados Las pautas actualizadas para el tratamiento de lesiones contusas del hígado y del bazo se dividen en 4 secciones: Ingreso, Procedimientos, Liberación y Cuidados posteriores. El ingreso a la unidad de cuidados intensivos se basa en signos vitales anormales después de la reanimación con pacientes estables ingresados ​​en la sala con restricciones mínimas. Las recomendaciones de procedimiento incluyen transfusiones en caso de niveles bajos de hemoglobina (<7 mg/dL) o signos de sangrado continuo. La angioembolización y la exploración quirúrgica se limitan a aquellos pacientes con signos clínicos de sangrado continuo después de la reanimación.

Williams, Harsh Grewal, Ramin Jamshidi, Bindi Naik-Mathuria, Mitchell Price, Robert T. Russell, Adam Vogel, David M. Notrica, Steven Stylianos, John Petty Full article: https://gcmd.co/3N792cP Background Non-operative management of blunt liver and spleen injuries was championed initially in children with the first management guideline published in 2000 by the American Pediatric Surgical Association (APSA). Multiple articles have expanded on the original guidelines and additional therapy has been investigated to improve care for these patients. Based on a literature review and current consensus, the management guidelines for the treatment of blunt liver and spleen injuries are presented. Methods A recent literature review by the APSA Outcomes committee [2] was utilized as the basis for the guideline recommendations. A task force was assembled from the APSA Committee on Trauma to review the original guidelines, the literature reported by the Outcomes Committee and then to develop an easy to implement guideline. Results The updated guidelines for the management of blunt liver and spleen injuries are divided into 4 sections: Admission, Procedures, Set Free and Aftercare. Admission to the intensive care unit is based on abnormal vital signs after resuscitation with stable patients admitted to the ward with minimal restrictions. Procedure recommendations include transfusions for low hemoglobin (<7 mg/dL) or signs of ongoing bleeding. Angioembolization and operative exploration is limited to those patients with clinical signs of continued bleeding after resuscitation. Discharge is based on clinical condition and not grade of injury. Activity restrictions remain the same while follow-up imaging is only indicated for symptomatic patients.

Neurodevelopmental deficits driven by neuroinflammation are major complications of IUGR. We sought to determine whether MSC-based TRASCET also mitigates inflammation in the fetal brain. Methods Pregnant Sprague-Dawley dams (n = 8) were exposed to alternating 12-hour hypoxia (10.5% O2) cycles from gestational day 15 (E15) until term (E21). One group remained untreated (n = 28 fetuses). Three groups received volume-matched intra-amniotic injections into all fetuses (n = 72) of either saline (sham; n = 19), or a suspension of amniotic fluid-derived MSCs, either in native state (TRASCET; n = 20), or primed by exposure to interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) for 24 h prior to administration in vivo (TRASCET-Primed; n = 29). Donor MSCs were syngeneic Lewis rat cells phenotyped by flow cytometry. Normal fetuses served as controls (n = 20). Multiple analyses were performed at term, including ELISA in fetal brains for the pro-inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and IL-1β. Statistical comparisons were by Wilcox-rank sum test, including Bonferroni-adjusted significance. Results Overall survival was 75% (88/116). Gross brain weights were significantly decreased from normal in both the untreated and sham groups (both p<0.001) and significantly increased in both TRASCET groups when compared to untreated and sham (p = 0.003 https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6432 2023-03-01T16:00:12+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6484 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6484/thumbnail_6484_2023-03-14_22-00-12.jpg Rectal Prolapse in Anorectal Malformations Marc A.

The American Pediatric Surgical Association (APSA) Outcomes and Evidence-Based Practice Committee performed a systematic review of the literature to develop evidence-based recommendations. Methods Ovid MEDLINE, Elsevier Embase, EBSCOhost CINAHL, Elsevier Scopus, and Wiley Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases were queried for literature related to spontaneous pneumothorax between January 1, 1990, and December 31, 2020, addressing (1) initial management, (2) advanced imaging, (3) timing of surgery, (4) operative technique, (5) management of contralateral side, and (6) management of recurrence. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed. Results Seventy-nine manuscripts were included. Initial management of adolescent and young adult primary spontaneous pneumothorax should be guided by symptoms and can include observation, aspiration, or tube thoracostomy. There is no evidence of benefit for cross-sectional imaging. Patients with ongoing air leak may benefit from early operative intervention within 24–48 h.

Authors: Laura Phillips, Bruce Jaffray Full article:  DOI: 10.1016/j.jpedsurg.2023.10.014 Background Babies with oesophageal atresia (OA) who cannot achieve a primary anastomosis (complex OA) may be treated by attempted oesophageal lengthening. We contrast reported outcomes of lengthening with our experience of managing complex OA. Methods A consecutive series treated in an English regional centre was completed. Outcomes of interest were the rate of retention of the native oesophagus, complications requiring thoracotomy, rates of anastomotic leak, stricture, fundoplication, and mortality. Possible explanatory variables were the surgical techniques applied. Results 29/215 (13%) OA were complex, and 25/207 survived to repair. 14/25 (56%) had no distal fistula, pure OA, while 11/25 (44%) had a long gap with distal fistula. 18/25 (72%) had delayed primary anastomosis, while 7/25 (28%) required oesophageal replacement. However, 2 of the replacements were salvage procedures following failed traction. Only 4/207 (2%) of OA were potentially treatable by traction. Salvage surgery was required in 2/23 (9%) complex OA not subjected to lengthening. The native oesophagus was retained without utilising lengthening in 200/207 (97%). Amongst complex OA where traction techniques had not been attempted, the native oesophagus was retained in 18/23 (78%) of cases, with median time to oesophageal continuity of 77 days. There was no in hospital mortality following treatment of complex OA, and overall survival was identical to non-complex OA among cases surviv https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8629 2024-05-16T09:17:52+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9732 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/9732/thumbnail_11295_2025-01-30_05-30-41.jpg Quick Literature Updates Episode 16 We’re back with sixteenth episode of "Quick Literature Updates" the podcast series that delivers the latest updates in pediatric surgery literature in a quick and digestible format.

Regan Williams and Katie Russell delve into the latest approaches to deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis in pediatric trauma patients. Learn when to start chemical prophylaxis, how to balance bleeding risks, and the best options for discharge medication. Key Points Covered: Timing is Critical: Start chemical DVT prophylaxis within 24 hours of admission for stable trauma patients to reduce the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Guideline Recommendations: Follow EAST guidelines and assess factors like Injury Severity Score (ISS) to determine risk levels. Discharge Medications: Recent studies show aspirin is as effective as Lovenox for DVT prevention and offers easier compliance for pediatric patients at home. Join us as we explore how new evidence is shaping DVT prevention strategies in pediatric trauma care.

Regan Williams and Katie Russell. This emerging technique is categorized as both a Black Diamond (unproven) and Blue Square (newer) practice, sparking valuable discussion among trauma surgeons. Key Points Discussed: What is REBOA? A life-saving procedure used to control bleeding by inflating a balloon in the aorta, buying time for surgical intervention. Pediatric Use Challenges: REBOA is rarely performed in pediatric hospitals, making rapid application difficult, and there is no clear survival advantage in pediatric cases. Clinical Debate: A case study of a 16-year-old trauma patient illustrates the decision-making process, with most surgeons opting for laparotomy over REBOA. Algorithm Comparison: When to use REBOA versus resuscitative thoracotomy, based on guidelines from the Western Trauma Association.

What Are A-Frame Deformities? A tracheal deformity that typically occurs at the site of a previous tracheostomy, affecting about a third of patients with prior airway surgery. Challenges in Airway Sizing: Traditional endotracheal tube sizing is unreliable for A-frame deformities due to the oblong shape of the airway, making it crucial to assess both static and dynamic aspects of the deformity. Symptoms and Progression: Symptoms may take 1-2 years to manifest post-decannulation, often presenting as exercise intolerance, dyspnea, or obstructive sleep apnea. Surgical Interventions: Dr. Smith demonstrates two approaches for treating A-frame deformities—open repair with tracheoplasty or anterior graft placement, and endoscopic resection using a CO2 laser. Case Studies: Real-life examples of successful interventions, including a 6-year-old with campomelic dysplasia and a 12-year-old with subglottic and tracheal stenosis, highlighting the effectiveness of both open and endoscopic procedures. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9105 2024-08-30T06:24:11+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8117 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8117/thumbnail_9650_2024-03-27_15-10-59.jpg Update Course Rewind: Massive Transfusion Protocol 2023 Our 11th Annual Update Course in Pediatric Surgery was held past August.

Our aim was to determine outcomes and readmission rates among pediatric patients with cholecystitis who underwent index cholecystectomy versus those who did not. Methods We performed a retrospective study of pediatric (< 18 years old) admitted with acute cholecystitis (AC) requiring hospitalization using the 2018 National Readmission Database (NRD). Exclusion criteria included age ≥ 18 years and death on index admission. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to identify factors associated with 30-day readmissions. Results We identified 550 unique index acute cholecystitis admissions. Mean age was 14.6 ± 3.0 years. Majority of patients were female (n = 372, 67.6%). Index cholecystectomy was performed in (n = 435, 79.1%) of cases. Thirty-day readmission rate was 2.8% in patients who underwent index cholecystectomy and 22.6% in those who did not (p < 0.001). On multivariable analysis, patients who did not undergo index cholecystectomy had higher odds of 30-day readmission than those who did not (OR 10.66, 95% CI 5.06-22.45, p < 0.001). Female patients also had higher odds of 30-day readmission compared to males (OR 3.37, 95% CI 1.31-8.69). Conclusions Patients who did not undergo index cholecystectomy had over tenfold increase in odds of 30-day readmission.

Methods Medline, Embase and Central databases were searched from inception until 25 Jan 2021 to identify publications comparing the timing of neonatal inguinal hernia repair between early intervention (before discharge from first hospitalization) and delayed (after first hospitalisation discharge) intervention. Inclusion criteria was preterm infants diagnosed with inguinal hernia during neonatal intensive care unit admission. Results were analyzed using fixed and random effects meta-analysis (RevManv5.4). Results Out of 721 articles found, six studies were included in the meta-analysis. Patients in the early group had lower odds of developing incarceration [odds ratio (OR) 0.43, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.34–0.55, I2 = 0%, p < 0.001]; but higher risk of post-operative respiratory complications (OR 4.36, 95% CI 2.13–8.94, I2 = 40%, p < 0.001). No significant differences were reported in recurrence rate (OR 3.10, 95% CI 0.90–10.64, I2 = 0%, p = 0.07) and surgical complication rate (OR 0.94, 95% CI 0.18–4.83, I2 = 0%, p = 0.94) between early and delayed groups. Conclusion While early inguinal hernia repair in preterm infants reduces the risk of incarceration, it increases the risk of post-operative respiratory complications compared to delayed repair. Surgeons should discuss the risks and benefits of delaying inguinal hernia repair with the caregivers to make an informed decision best suited to the patient physiology and circumstances. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7705 2023-11-23T00:00:07+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7129 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/7129/thumbnail_8613_2023-09-13_22-00-08.jpg Chest Tube Management following Lung Resection in Pediatric patients New article you should know about by @gigenace "Chest Tube Management following Lung Resection in Pediatric patients" Authors: Schnuck J.K., Javid P.J, Riehle KJ, Rothstein DH Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00171-9/fulltext Background: Pleural drainage following lung resection is almost universally practiced in pediatric surgery, but its necessity has been questioned in adult literature. We performed a cross-sectional study of pediatric patients undergoing lung resection to characterize chest tube (CT) practices and clarify their utility. Method: Retrospective chart review of patients <21 years of age undergoing pulmonary lobectomy or wedge resection at an academic children's hospital from 2013 to 2022. Variables regarding demographics and post-operative CT management were recorded. Results: 130 procedures meet inclusion criteria: 59 lobectomies (group 1), 19 diagnostic wedges (group 2), and 52 excisional wedges (group 3). 74.6% of group 1 patients had no air leak, and median CT duration was 2 days. In group 2, 89.5% had no air leak and median CT duration was 1 day. In Group 3, 80.8% had no air leak and median CT duration was 1 day. Overall, 43.1% patients had their CT removed on postoperative day 1 and 21.5% on post-operative day 2. Conclusion: CT duration following lung resection in pediatric patients is typically brief, with most patients having no air leak and CT removal within 2 days https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7129 2023-09-13T22:00:08+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6976 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6976/thumbnail_8435_2023-08-07_12-00-14.jpg Quick Literature Updates Episode 12 We’re back with twelfth episode of "Quick Literature Updates" the podcast series that delivers the latest updates in pediatric surgery literature in a quick and digestible format.

Antes de embarcarnos en un registro prospectivo de vigilancia de EA, buscamos comprender las prácticas de vigilancia de EA dentro de la Red de Cirugía Pediátrica del Este (EPSN). Métodos Se envió por correo electrónico una encuesta anónima de Qualtrics de 23 preguntas a 181 médicos (cirujanos y gastroenterólogos) en 19 instituciones miembros. Las preguntas de la escala de Likert midieron el acuerdo con las declaraciones derivadas de las pautas de vigilancia internacional de EA. Preguntas de opción múltiple evaluaron prácticas individuales e institucionales. Resultados La tasa de respuesta fue del 77%. La mayoría de los encuestados (80 %) está totalmente de acuerdo o de acuerdo en que la endoscopia de vigilancia de la AE debe seguir un programa establecido, mientras que solo el 36 % afirmó realizar una endoscopia GI superior de rutina independientemente de los síntomas. Muchas instituciones (77%) cuentan con una clínica aerodigestiva, aunque algunas carecen de un equipo multidisciplinario de EA.

Pakarinen, Topi Luoto, Susanna Nuutinen, Arimatias Raitio, Esko Tahkola, Antti Koivusalo Aim of the study: Continuous surgical developments, growing awareness of patient representatives and limited health-care resources are pushing for innovative approaches to ensure equal high-quality pediatric surgical care. We aimed to describe early experiences and assess surgical safety of a novel nationwide pediatric surgery collaborative initiative. Methods: In 2021, general pediatric surgeons representing all five independent university hospitals performing neonatal surgery in Finland initiated national collaboration, the Finnish pediatric surgery hub (FPSH), for sharing of surgical expertise and collective learning. For each case addressed by FPSH, place of care and surgical team were decided individually, and when deemed necessary, operations were per-formed in cooperation. Operations performed during 2021e2023 and associated early (<30 days) postoperative complications were analyzed according to Clavien-Madadi classification.   Results: Of the total 40 surgeries managed co-operatively by FPSH, 30 (75%) took place in local university hospitals and 10 in Helsinki University Hospital. There were 34 (85%) elective and 6 urgent cases, which were operated within median 1 (range, 1e3) days. Most frequent underlying diagnoses included anorectal malformations, esophageal atresia and Hirschsprung disease. Overall, 12 (30%) had any early postoperative complications, all Clavien-Madadi grade IIIB or lower, and five patients (13%) were reoperated. Rate or grade of complications was not associated with place of care. In addition to regular virtual case meetings, national care protocols and research projects were introduced. Conclusion: These preliminary findings suggest that our national collaborative initiative, FPSH, not only provided practical and safe framework for sharing of surgical expertise but also for collective learning https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9951 2025-02-24T07:19:55+00:00 channel#pediatric_surgery Lizzy Lee neonatal pedsurg centralization collaboration surgery Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6674 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6674/thumbnail_6674_2023-05-25_16-00-11.jpg Update Course Rewind: Management of Appendicitis 2022 Appendicitis is one of the most common conditions seen by pediatric surgeons but still has many controversies in management.

Levitt Abstract Background En pacientes con enfermedad de Hirschsprung (HSCR), el manchado puede estar relacionado a un esfinter anal dañado pos descenso anal incial. Ningun tratamiento óptimo ha sido desarrollado para estos pacientes, aunque los enemas (retrogrados o anterogrados) pueden ser aplicados con algo de éxito. Presentamos un año de experiencia sobre una nueva tecnica para la reconstrucción del esfinter anal.  Métodos Todos los pacientes con HSCR referidos de otras instituciones luego de un descenso con incontinencia fueron estudiados. Siete pacientes que tenían un esfinter patuoso se sometieron a reconstruccion del esfinter. 6 tuvieron una evaluacion preoperatoria completa y fueron incluidos en el estudio. Sus resultados a doce meses fueron evaluados.  Resultados Todos los 6 pacientes tenían incontinencia sin moviemientos intestinales voluntarios (VBMs). Un paciente estaba limpio con enemas por el Malone. 3 se sometieron a manomateria anorectal 3-D pre y pos cirugía de reconstrucción y objetivamente pudieron ocluir el esfinter pos reconstrucción. Todos los pacientes sin sindrome de Down (4 de 6) mostraron mejorias en la escala de continencia de Baylor (4.5 vs. 0.75). Un paciente obtuvo un control intestinal total sin enemas anterogrados, tres tienen VBMs que previamente no tenían pero tienen accidentes ocasionales y usan enemas anterógrados intermitentemente.

Autores: Godfrey Sama Philipo, Zaitun Mohamed Bokhary, Neema Lala Bayyo, Soham Bandyopadhyay, Miriam Gerd Pueschel, Rajabu Athumani Bakari, Kokila Lakhoo Abstract Background Las infecciones del sitio quirúrgico (ISQs) son complicaciones comunes y severas. Guías de prevención de las mismas se han desarrollado pero el rol del baño prequirúrgico con jabón común en la población pediátrica no está claro. Nuestro objetivo es evaluar la efectividad del baño prequirúrgico usando jabón común en la prevención de las ISQs en los pacientes pediátricos.  Materiales y Métodos Se realizó un ensayo aleatorizado de etiqueta abierta en el Hospital Nacional Muhimbili en Tanzania. Antes de la operación, los pacientes del grupo de intervención se lavaron el cuerpo con jabón común, mientras que los del grupo de control no lo hicieron. El resultado primario fue la ISQ posoperatoria. Las pruebas estadísticas incluyeron χ2, suma de rangos de Wilcoxon y regresión logística univariante y multivariable. Resultados De los 252 pacientes reclutados, 114 fueron aleatorizados al brazo de intervención. En el brazo de control, el 40,6 % (56/138) de los participantes desarrollaron ISQ en comparación con el 11,4 % (13/114) en el brazo de intervención (p < 0,01). Después de ajustar los factores de confusión en el análisis multivariable, la intervención redujo las probabilidades de una SSI en un 80 % (OR: 0,20 [IC del 95 %: 0,10, 0,41]; p < 0,01). Los antibióticos preoperatorios se consideraron un modificador del efecto de la asociación entre la intervención y la ISQ (p = 0,05). La intervención redujo significativamente las probabilidades de una ISQ en un 88 % entre los participantes que no recibieron antibióticos preoperatorios (OR: 0,12 [IC del 95 %: 0,05, 0,30]; p < 0,01).

New article you should know! by @gigenace "A randomised control trial using soap in the prevention of surgical site infection in Tanzania” Godfrey Sama Philipo et.al. Authors: Godfrey Sama Philipo, Zaitun Mohamed Bokhary, Neema Lala Bayyo, Soham Bandyopadhyay, Miriam Gerd Pueschel, Rajabu Athumani Bakari, Kokila Lakhoo Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(22)00701-1/fulltext Abstract Background Surgical site infections (SSIs) are common and serious complications of surgery. Guidelines on preventing SSIs have been developed, but the role of preoperative bathing with plain soap among paediatric population is unclear. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of pre-operative bathing using plain soap in preventing SSIs among paediatric surgical patients. Materials and Methods An open-label, randomised trial was conducted at Muhimbili National Hospital in Tanzania. Preoperatively, patients in the intervention group washed their body using plain soap, while those in the control group did not. The primary outcome was SSI postoperatively. Statistical tests included χ2, Wilcoxon rank sum, and univariate and multivariable logistic regression. Results Of the 252 patients recruited,114 were randomised to the intervention arm. In the control arm, 40.6% (56/138) of participants developed SSIs compared to 11.4% (13/114) in the intervention arm (p < 0.01). After adjusting for confounding factors in multivariable analysis, the intervention reduced the odds of an SSI by 80% (OR: 0.20 [95% CI: 0.10, 0.41]; p < 0.01). Preoperative antibiotics were deemed to be an effect modifier of the association between the intervention and SSI (p = 0.05). The intervention significantly reduced the odds of an SSI by 88% among participants not given preoperative antibiotics (OR: 0.12 [95% CI: 0.05, 0.30]; p < 0.01). Conclusion This study has shown that preoperative bathing with soap significantly reduces SSIs in paediatric surgical patients.

Another Article you should know by Cecilia Gigena  "Optimizing skin antisepsis for neonatal Surgery: A quality improvement initiave" Sophie Carr et.al. Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(22)00200-7/pdf Authors: Sophie Carr, Carmina Gogal, Kourosh Afshar, Joseph Ting, Erik Skarsgard Abstract Purpose Surgical site infections (SSIs) are a significant determinant of morbidity in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Chlorhexidine gluconate/isopropyl alcohol (CHG-IPA) skin prep has demonstrated superiority over Povidone-Iodine (PI) in preventing SSIs in adults, however FDA labeling discourages CHG use in infants <2 months. This project aimed to i) create evidence for safe CHG skin antisepsis in neonates; and ii) evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CHG skin prep for neonatal surgery. Methods A literature review was conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of neonatal CHG skin antisepsis. Following stakeholder engagement, a CHG surgical skin prep protocol and validated neonatal skin integrity tool to assess prep-associated skin injury were implemented in 50 consecutive, eligible neonates ≥1500 g and ≥34 weeks post conceptual age undergoing abdominal or thoracic surgery. SSI rates were compared to a matched, historical PI skin prep cohort. Results 2%CHG-70%IPA or 0.5%CHG-70%IPA were used based on gestational age cutoffs. None of the CHG patients experienced adverse skin prep outcomes while 8% developed SSIs, compared to 14% in the historical PI cohort. Conclusion This project engaged NICU stakeholders in quality improvement work and informed the implementation of a safe and effective CHG skin prep protocol for neonatal surgery. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5916 2022-10-13T22:00:06+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5878 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/5878/thumbnail_5878_2022-09-22_12-00-08.jpg Journal of Pediatric Surgery Article Review: June 2022, AAP Issue Here's the June 2022 issue of JPS article highlights.

Adapted from adult procedures, lipiodol is a promising alternative to traditional localization methods, offering precise marking with minimal complications. Key Points Covered: Challenges in Nodule Localization: High conversion rates during thoracoscopy due to failure to locate small or calcified nodules using CT, ultrasound, or hook wires. Lipiodol Technique: A CT-guided marking procedure where lipiodol dye remains stable for up to three months, allowing for flexible surgery scheduling. Clinical Outcomes: Dr. Gonzalez’s team achieved 100% sensitivity in 33 patients, resecting over 50 nodules with improved accuracy and efficiency. Learn how this novel approach is transforming lung metastasis management in pediatric surgery.

Regan Williams and Katie Russell share new updates on the management of thoracic aortic injuries. Classified as a “Black Diamond” practice—indicating unproven approaches for early adopters—this session reviews how Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) is emerging as a less invasive and effective treatment option in pediatric patients, especially adolescents. Host: Lizzy Lee, PA-C Key Takeaways: Prioritize stabilization and life-threatening injuries before addressing thoracic aortic injury. Thoracic aortic injuries in children are rare and can be easily missed—maintain a high index of suspicion. A widened mediastinum on chest X-ray should prompt a CT chest to evaluate for vascular injury. Decisions should be guided by patient age, injury severity, and available expertise at your institution. Collaboration with vascular surgeons or interventional radiologists is essential for optimal care. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10390 2025-04-24T07:48:06+00:00 channel#pediatric_surgery thoracic aortic injury thoracic injury Lizzy lee Regan williams Katie russell Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair tevar pediatric trauma pediatric trauma surgery Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6359 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/6359/thumbnail_6359_2023-02-06_18-00-13.jpg BOB Ped Surg 2023 - Brittany Hegde, PAPS - Presentation Watch Brittany Hegde, MD, present her presentation on "Impact of cryoanalgesia use for pain control in minimally invasive pectus excavatum repair on hospital days and costs." https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6359 2023-02-06T18:00:13+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6326 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/6326/thumbnail_6326_2023-02-01_22-00-11.jpg BOB in Ped Surg 2023 - EUPSA Winner - Dr. Rebeca Figueira Watch the EUPSA winner, Dr. Rebeca Figueira, present her presentation on "Fetal lung vascular development is reduced by amniotic fluid stem cells extracelullar vesicles in experimental congenital diaphragmatic hernia." https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6326 2023-02-01T22:00:11+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8662 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8662/thumbnail_10205_2024-05-28_07-25-05.jpg Update Course Rewind- Who to Send Home from the OR: Uncomplicated Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Part 3 We are back with another Update Course Rewind video from the Update Course in Pediatric Surgery 2023.

Symptom Assessment: Esophageal stricture symptoms vary by age, oral intake, and stenosis severity. Accurate diagnosis involves evaluating nutritional status and secretion management. Diagnostic Tools: Endoscopy and esophagram are essential for assessing stricture location, diameter, and extent. Dilation Techniques: Learn about different tools like controlled radial expansion balloons, hurricane balloons, and bougienage. Understand when and how to use each method safely. Fluoroscopy Guidance: The advantages of using fluoroscopy for pre- and post-dilation esophagrams, ensuring accurate dilation and detecting complications like perforation. Incremental Dilation: The importance of cautious, gradual dilation to minimize risks and improve outcomes. Choosing the Right Method: Tailor the dilation technique to each patient’s anatomy, with a focus on careful scar remnant removal. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9038 2024-08-19T08:02:39+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13825 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vDdi3HT81qo/hqdefault.jpg Episode 19 - Interview with Dr Marc Levitt, Chief of Colorectal & Pelvic Reconstruction, Children‘s Source: https://www.podbean.com/eau/pb-hnps7-10ff7e9 For episode 19, we are joined by Dr Marc Levitt MD, Chief of Colorectal & Pelvic Reconstruction, Children's National Hospital, Washington DC USA who is internationally recognised as specialising in Anorectal Malformation patients.

Objective  To evaluate the ability of a consensus-based preoperative risk stratification algorithm to discriminate between benign and malignant ovarian pathology and decrease unnecessary oophorectomies. Design, Setting, and Participants  Pre/post interventional study of a risk stratification algorithm in patients aged 6 to 21 years undergoing surgery for an ovarian mass in an inpatient setting in 11 children’s hospitals in the United States between August 2018 and January 2021, with 1-year follow-up. Intervention  Implementation of a consensus-based, preoperative risk stratification algorithm with 6 months of preintervention assessment, 6 months of intervention adoption, and 18 months of intervention. The intervention adoption cohort was excluded from statistical comparisons. Main Outcomes and Measures  Unnecessary oophorectomies, defined as oophorectomy for a benign ovarian neoplasm based on final pathology or mass resolution. Results  A total of 519 patients with a median age of 15.1 (IQR, 13.0-16.8) years were included in 3 phases: 96 in the preintervention phase (median age, 15.4 [IQR, 13.4-17.2] years; 11.5% non-Hispanic Black; 68.8% non-Hispanic White); 105 in the adoption phase; and 318 in the intervention phase (median age, 15.0 [IQR, 12.9-16.6)] years; 13.8% non-Hispanic Black; 53.5% non-Hispanic White). Benign disease was present in 93 (96.9%) in the preintervention cohort and 298 (93.7%) in the intervention cohort. The percentage of unnecessary oophorectomies decreased from 16.1% (15/93) preintervention to 8.4% (25/298) during the intervention (absolute reduction, 7.7% [95% CI, 0.4%-15.9%]; P = .03).

From circumcisions to frenulectomies and pilonidal cyst ablations, CO2 lasers are gaining traction for their precision, reduced pain, and shorter operating times. Key Highlights: Clinical Applications: Successfully used for circumcision, frenulectomy, perianal fistulas, pilonidal cysts, and more. Benefits of CO2 Lasers: Reduced bleeding, lower complication rates, shorter operative times, and improved cosmetic outcomes. Evidence-Based Insights: Meta-analyses show CO2 laser-assisted surgeries have better results than traditional techniques in specific cases. Challenges: High equipment cost, steep learning curve, and the need for specialized training remain barriers to adoption. Join us to explore how CO2 lasers are transforming pediatric surgery and learn about the exciting possibilities for the future!

If you’re watching this video, it’s because rectal irrigations have been prescribed by our care team or your child’s primary care provider to help your child empty their colon of stool and gas. Rectal irrigations flush a safe liquid through the colon to help clean stool out and to prevent infection. The goal of this video is to teach you to perform rectal irrigations at home with your child.

The purpose of this study is to compare rates of second hernia operation and same side recurrence following open and laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in a large national cohort. Methods: This retrospective analysis utilized the Pediatric Health Information System database to identify children <18 years-old who underwent laparoscopic or open primary inguinal hernia repair from 2017 to 2021. Data were collected through 2022 to allow minimum one year follow-up. Second hernia operation rates, inclusive of same side recurrence and metachronous contralateral hernia, and same side recurrence rates were compared by multivariable mixed effects model controlling for confounders and institutional clustering. Misclassification rates were determined through data validation at four constituent institutions. Sensitivity analyses determined true outcome rates. Results: We identified 53,287 operations (15.6% laparoscopic). Rate of second hernia operation was greater following laparoscopic repair (2.9% vs 2.6%, p = 0.04) with no difference on multivariable analysis (OR 1.14, 95% CI 0.98-1.32). Same side recurrence rate was greater following laparoscopic repair (1.5% vs 0.4%, p < 0.001) which persisted on multivariable analysis (OR 3.72, 95% CI 2.90-4.78). Sensitivity analysis demonstrated true laparoscopic and open repair rates of 14.2% and 85.8%, respectively. True rates of second hernia operation and same side recurrence were identical to those determined by PHIS. Conclusion: Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in children has more than three times the odds of same side hernia recurrence than open repair which is balanced by a reduced rate https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11460 2026-02-04T21:20:07+00:00 pedsurg pediatric surgery laparoscopic surgery hernia repair inguinal repair minimally invasive pediatrics Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6325 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/6325/thumbnail_6325_2023-02-01_22-00-11.jpg BOB in Ped Surg 2023 - IBEROAMERICANA Winner - Lourenzo Sbragia, MD Watch the IBEROAMERICANA winner, Lourenzo Sbragia, MD, present his presentation on "Analysis of risk factors for neonatal short intestine syndrome in two tertiary centers in Brazil." https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6325 2023-02-01T22:00:11+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7963 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7963/thumbnail_9493_2024-02-07_16-00-13.jpg Stephanie Walsh, MD - 2024 Pediatric Bariatric Surgery Update Course Stephanie Walsh, MD presents “Recurrent Obesity and Inadequate Primary Weight Loss” at the 2024 Pediatric Bariatric Surgery Update Course. spaces/17/content/7963/file_9493_2024-02-07_16-00-13.mp4 2024-02-07T16:00:13+00:00 1 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10722 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/10722/90fac23ef8e293e219fdc80433aea9f4.jpg Pediatric Surgical Outreach: An Underutilized Resource for Increasing Children's Surgical Capacity in Canada Amanpreet Brara, Kenneth W. Gowb, Erik D. Skarsgarda Background Wait times for children's hospital-based surgical services are at unprecedented levels. Opportunities to increase most children's hospital-based service capacity are sparse, and community-based services are a potential patient-centered alternative. The aim of this study was to understand the current state of pediatric surgical outreach in Canada as an option to address these challenges. Methods An electronic survey was sent to all (n = 18) Canadian children's hospital surgical leaders inquiring about “outreach services” defined as inpatient/outpatient services provided by pediatric surgeons outside of children's hospitals. Descriptive analysis of outreach included facility type/location (by postal code), nature and frequency of service, and participation of other specialties. Results 18 survey respondents (100 %) reported that pediatric surgical outreach services were available in 7 out of 10 provinces, but only 8/18 (44 %) of Canadian children's hospitals. Services include: i) inpatient coverage at 2 sites in 2 provinces; ii) outpatient surgery at 6 sites in 3 provinces (median distance 69 km, range 6–1881 km from home children's hospital); and iii) outpatient ambulatory clinics at 19 sites in 4 provinces (median distance 18 km, range 4–1448 km from home children's hospital). Median frequencies of outreach surgical slates and clinics were 1 per week and 1 per month, respectively. Conclusion Less than half of Canadian children's hospitals have developed outreach programs as a strategy to increase capacity for children's surgical services. To promote improved surgical care for all Canadian children, efforts targeting expansion of outreach capacity could increase access for geographically remote children. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10722 2025-07-25T05:35:25+00:00 channel#pediatric_surgery Alex Halpern pediatric surgery Surgical capacity Health disparities Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6275 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/34/content/6275/thumbnail_6275_2023-01-12_16-00-08.jpg Juvenile Polyposis Syndromes with Dr. Joseph Palermo Join Dr. Joseph Palermo for a review of Juvenile Polyposis syndromes.

The aim of the study is to compare different stabilization techniques in a cohort of patients operated by the same first operator. Methods: MIRPE was adopted at our institution in 2005. Data on MIRPE patients from January 2013 to December 2022 were collected prospectively and reviewed. Patients with a follow-up of at least 12 months were included. Throughout the years different ways of stabilization were used. Patients were divided in 3 groups according to the stabilization strategy adopted- Group A: no stabilizer; Group B: single bar fixation; Group C: bridge fixation. Dislocation was diagnosed if a bar rotated more than 30° or displaced laterally for more than 1.5 cm. We compared bar dislocation percentage of each group. Results: We positioned 733 bars in 468 patients. Group A included 113 bars (15.4%), Group B 415 bars (56.6%), Group C 205 bars (28%). No patients were lost at follow-up. Total dislocation rate was 4.1% (30 bars). Dislocation was observed in 10 bars of group A (8.8%), 20 bars of group B (4.8 %), 0 bars of group C (0%). Differences between groups were statistically significant. Conclusions: The use of stabilizers reduced dislocation percentage. In particular, bridge fixation technique reduced to zero bar dislocation and is now our preferred technique of stabilization. spaces/1/content/9184/file_10738_2024-09-20_07-54-18.mp4 2024-09-20T07:54:18+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13837 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 01_Marc_Levitt_02 The Concept of Integrated Care_h264_15k_1080p25_cc_220807 This is "01_Marc_Levitt_02 The Concept of Integrated Care_h264_15k_1080p25_cc_220807" by CTO on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them. https://vimeo.com/737408013 2026-07-29T23:11:06+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13836 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 Keynote_speech_by_DR._Marc_Levitt_july_2022.mov This is "Keynote_speech_by_DR._Marc_Levitt_july_2022.mov" by CTO on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them. https://vimeo.com/742359792 2026-07-29T23:11:06+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13835 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 01 CTO-Georgia_Marc Levitt_h264_1080p25_20k_230207.mov This is "01 CTO-Georgia_Marc Levitt_h264_1080p25_20k_230207.mov" by CTO on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them. https://vimeo.com/799209759 2026-07-29T23:11:06+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11457 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/11457-da673d439b.jpg A multi-institutional comparison of management techniques for infants with giant omphalocele Alyssa Stetson, Samantha Leonard, Katherine Flynn-O'Brien, Seth Goldstein, Tiffany Wright, Cynthia Downard, Kyle J Van Arendonk, Charles M Leyes, Linda Cherney-Stafford, Karen Speck, Peter C Minneci, Troy A Markel, Shawn D St Peter, Dave Lal, Michael Sobolic, Matthew P Landman, Beth Rymeski; Midwest Pediatric Surgery ConsortiumPurpose: Giant omphaloceles (GO) are uncommon with no consensus on treatment strategy. Placement of a DuoDerm® silo (DDS) is a novel management technique. We sought to identify optimal approach by comparing outcomes of patients who underwent DDS placement, paint and wait (P&W), operative silo placement (OSP), or alternative compression techniques (ACT).Methods: A multi-institutional retrospective review between 7/1/2012-5/31/2023 of patients with GO (fascial defect >5 cm). Patients were identified via ICD codes and chart review.Results: There were 117 children with GO from nine centers. Twelve children (10 %) were managed with DDS, 83 (71 %) with P&W, 11 (9 %) with OSP, and 11 (9 %) with ACT. Patients in the OSP group were more likely to have a torn or ruptured sac (p < 0.001) but there was no difference in number of organs present in the sac (p = 0.22). There was no difference in percentage of patients with fascial closure between groups (p = 0.16). Age at fascial closure was lowest in the OSP group (0.6 months) followed by the DDS group (1.5 months) (p = 0.003). Patients in the DDS group had the highest rate of primary fascial closure (9, 82 %), followed by the P&W (49, 78 %), OSP (4, 40 %), and ACT (2, 20 %) (p < 0.001). Forty-three patients (37 %) experienced a complication, equal between groups (p = 0.71).Conclusions: Half the infants in our cohort did not achieve fascial closure until ≥6 months. While median time to fascial closure was lowest for OSP, patients with DDS placement achieved the highest rate of primary fascial closure. Further research could help optimize patient selection for GO closure strategy. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11457 2026-02-04T13:36:00+00:00 Abdominal wall condition Clinical outcomes DuoDERM silo Giant omphalocele pediatric surgery some4pedsurg alternative compression techniques operative silo placement OSP GO Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13834 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 01_Marc_Levitt_06 Marc about a CTO Mission_h264_15k_1080p25_cc_220807 This is "01_Marc_Levitt_06 Marc about a CTO Mission_h264_15k_1080p25_cc_220807" by CTO on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them. https://vimeo.com/737412755 2026-07-29T23:11:05+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3237 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3237/thumbnail_3237_2020-10-28_05-00-07.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: DEVELOPMENT OF AN ORIGINAL DEVICE THAT REPLACES THE LAPAROSCOPIC TOWER IN PEDIATRIC SIMULATORS IPEG 2020 Annual Meeting - Top Abstracts Ruth Kaller, MD; Carolina Millan; Soledad Valverde; Ignacio Diaz Saubidet; Fernando Rabinovich; Rogelio Dominguez; Enrique Buela; Luzia Toselli; Silvana Prodan; Patricio Cieri; Horacio Bignon; Jorge Martinez; Gaston Bellia Munzon; Santiago Callelo; Nicolas Meer; Marcelo Martinez Ferro; Fundacion Hospitalaria Introduction: We present the use of a webcam to replace a laparoscopic tower and allows to dispense of the second operator for training Objective: Validation of a prototype of the endocamera with an integrated light and original support Methods: The endocamera was built using a Logitech®webcam, led lights and a 3Dprinted support.

We report a case of a pediatric patient who underwent laparoscopic repair. Case Presentation: A 15 year old male presented with sudden acute abdominal pain and bilious vomiting, with a history of chronic abdominal pain. Imaging was concerning for an internal hernia despite no history of surgery. He underwent diagnostic laparoscopy with laparoscopic repair of a left mesocolic (paraduodenal) hernia. He did well postoperatively and was discharged postoperative day two. Discussion: While there are only a few reports of laparoscopic approaches for left mesocolic hernias in children, it allows for confirmation of diagnosis and effective treatment with minimal morbidity. Early discharge is feasible with this approach as well as excellent pain control and cosmesis. Conclusion: Laparoscopic left mesocolic hernia repair in pediatric patients is a safe and effective approach that may offer less morbidity, pain, and earlier discharge than an open approach.

Although vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) has been shown to be safe and effective, multiple short and long-term complications, including GERD can occur. We present a patient with a history of a laparoscopic VSG who presented with a one-year history of worsening dyspepsia and moderate weight regain (~11kg). UGI revealed concerns for chronic organoaxial gastric volvulus. Intraoperative findings included a dilated proximal pouch, extensive adhesions causing gastric volvulus, and distal gastric sleeve stenosis. After extensive lysis of adhesions, the sleeve was straightened and revised. Additionally, laparoscopically-guided endoscopic balloon dilation was performed addressing the gastric stenosis. Postoperatively the patient’s symptoms resolved. New onset and/or progressive GERD following VSG outside the immediate postoperative period should be evaluated. While conversion to a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass may be required, initial attempts to address gastric adhesions and/or chronic stenosis should be considered.

Métodos Del 2013 al 2023 se realizaron 173 colecistectomías laparoscópicas en 2 unidades de cirugía pediátrica: 83 mediante técnica estándar (G1) y 90 mediante colangiografía fluorescente con verde de indocianina (G2). Los pacientes incluyeron 96 niñas y 77 niños, con una mediana de edad de 12,3 años (rango 4-17) y un peso mediano de 51 kg (rango 19-114). Los 2 grupos se compararon con respecto a lo siguiente: (1) tasa de complicaciones perioperatorias; (2) duración total de la cirugía (T1); (3) longitud del aislamiento, recorte y seccionamiento del conducto cístico (T2); (4) momento de la extirpación de la vesícula biliar (T3); (5) grado de visualización del árbol biliar; (6) seguridad y viabilidad de la colangiografía fluorescente con verde de indocianina; (7) incidencia de anomalías anatómicas detectadas intraoperatoriamente. Resultados Todas las colecistectomías laparoscópicas se realizaron sin conversión a abierta. La tasa de complicaciones perioperatorias fue significativamente mayor en el G1 en comparación con el G2 (12% frente a 0%; P = 0,0007). Las medianas de T1, T2 y T3 fueron significativamente más largas en G1 (90, 37, 35 minutos) en comparación con G2 (55, 17, 19 minutos) (P = 0,0001), respectivamente.

We aimed to validate these prediction rules for children presenting to emergency departments with blunt abdominal or minor head trauma. Methods: For this prospective validation study, we enrolled children and adolescents younger than 18 years presenting to six emergency departments in Sacramento (CA), Dallas (TX), Houston (TX), San Diego (CA), Los Angeles (CA), and Oakland (CA), USA between Dec 27, 2016, and Sept 1, 2021. We excluded patients who were pregnant or had pre-existing neurological disorders preventing examination, penetrating trauma, injuries more than 24 h before arrival, CT or MRI before transfer, or high suspicion of non-accidental trauma. Children presenting with blunt abdominal trauma were enrolled into an abdominal trauma cohort, and children with minor head trauma were enrolled into one of two age-segregated minor head trauma cohorts (younger than 2 years vs aged 2 years and older). Enrolled children were clinically examined in the emergency department, and CT scans were obtained at the attending clinician's discretion. All enrolled children were evaluated against the variables of the pertinent PECARN prediction rule before CT results were seen. The primary outcome of interest in the abdominal trauma cohort was intra-abdominal injury undergoing acute intervention (therapeutic laparotomy, angiographic embolisation, blood transf https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9568 2024-12-26T07:51:01+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9473 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/9473/thumbnail_11029_2024-12-02_06-44-08.jpg Machine learning to predict pediatric choledocholithiasis: A Western Pediatric Surgery Research Consortium retrospective study Gretchen Floan Sachs MD, Shadassa Ourshalimian MPH, Aaron R. Jensen MD, MEd, MS, FACS, Lorraine I. Kelley-Quon MD, MSHS, FACS, Benjamin E. Padilla MD, FACS, Stephen B. Shew MD, FACS, Katrine M. Lofberg MD, FACS, Caitlin A. Smith MD, FACS, Jonathan P. Roach MD, FACS, Samir R. Pandya MD, FACS, Katie W. Russell MD, FACS, Romeo C. Ignacio Jr. MD, MS, MPath, FACS, Western Pediatric Surgery Research Consortium Choledocholithiasis Investigative Group Background: The purpose of this study was to accurately predict pediatric choledocholithiasis with clinical data using a computational machine learning algorithm. Methods: A multicenter retrospective cohort study was performed on children <18 years of age who underwent cholecystectomy between 2016 to 2019 at 10 pediatric institutions. Demographic data, clinical findings, laboratory, and ultrasound results were evaluated by bivariate analyses. An Extra-Trees machine learning algorithm using k-fold cross-validation was used to determine predictive factors for choledocholithiasis. Model performance was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve on a validation dataset. Results: A cohort of 1,597 patients was included, with an average age of 13.9 ± 3.2 years. Choledocholithiasis was confirmed in 301 patients (18.8%). Obesity was the most common comorbidity in all patients. Choledocholithiasis was associated with the finding of a common bile duct stone on ultrasound, increased common bile duct diameter, and higher serum concentrations of aspartate aminotransferase, alanine transaminase, lipase, and direct and peak total bilirubin. Nine features (age, body mass index, common bile duct stone on ultrasound, common bile duct diameter, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine transaminase, lipase, direct bilirubin, and peak total bilirubin) were clinically important and included in the machine learning algorithm.

Peiffer, Steven C. Mehl,  Paulina Powell, Timothy C. Lee, Sundeep G. Keswani, Alice King Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(24)00074-5/abstract Introduction Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a life-threatening, prenatally diagnosed congenital anomaly. We aim to characterize care and outcomes of infants with CDH in Texas and the impact of treating facilities volume of care. Methods Retrospective cohort study using a state-wide Hospital Inpatient Discharge Public Use Data File was conducted (2013–2021). Neonates and infants <1 year of age were included using CDH ICD-9/ICD-10 codes. Neonates transferred to an outside hospital were excluded to avoid double-counting. Descriptive statistics, chi-square and logistic regression analysis were performed. Results Of 1314 CDH patient encounters identified, 728 (55%) occurred at 5 higher volume centers (HVC, >75 cases), 326 (25%) at 9 mid-volume centers (MVC, 20–75 cases) and 268 (20%) at 79 low volume centers (LVC, <20 cases). HVC had lower mortality rates (18%, MVC 22% vs LVC 27%; p = 0.011) despite treating sicker patients (extreme illness severity: HVC 71%, MVC 62% vs LVC 50%; p < 0.001) with longer length-of-stay (p < 0.001). Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was used in 136 (10%) and provided primarily at HVC. LVC treated proportionately more non-white Hispanic patients (p < 0.001) and patients from counties along the Mexican border (p < 0.001). The predicted probability of mortality in CDH patients decreases with higher treatment facility CDH case volume, with a 0.5% decrease in the odds of mortality for every additional CDH case treated (p < 0.001).

To facilitate an early complete abdominal wall closure, we investigated the combination of a staged closure technique with continuous traction to the abdominal wall using a newly designed vertical traction device for newborns. Methods: Four tertiary pediatric surgery departments participated in the study between 04/2022 and 11/2023. In case primary organ reduction and abdominal wall closure were not amenable, patients underwent a traction-assisted abdominal wall closure applying fasciotens®Pediatric. Outcome parameters were time to closure, surgical complications, infections, and hernia formation. Results: Ten patients with GOC and 6 patients with GS were included. Complete fascial closure was achieved after a median time of 7 days (range 4–22) in GOC and 5 days (range 4–11) in GS. There were two cases of tear-outs of traction sutures and one skin suture line dehiscence after fascial closure. No surgical site infection or signs of abdominal compartment syndrome were seen. No ventral or umbilical hernia occurred after a median follow-up of 12 months (range 4–22). Conclusion: Traction-assisted staged closure using fasciotens®Pediatric enabled an early tension-less fascial closure in GOC and GS in the newborn period. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9436 2024-11-19T03:56:59+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/647 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/647/thumbnail_647_2018-11-10_00-05-18.jpg Pediatric Hernia - Peter Mattei Dr. Peter Mattei of The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, discusses hernia management.

The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness and complications of MFR in neonates following abdominal surgery. Design, setting and interventions Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials and observational studies. PubMed, Embase, Cochrane and CINAHL were searched until June 2022 for studies including neonates with ostomy receiving MFR compared with neonates with ostomy without MFR. Outcomes The primary outcome was duration of parenteral nutrition. Secondary outcomes were time to full enteral feeds, rates of cholestasis, peak total serum bilirubin, sepsis, time to reanastomosis and length of hospital stay. Results A total of 16 observational studies were included (n=623). Compared with comparator group, neonates who received MFR had fewer days of parenteral nutrition (mean difference 37.17 days, 95% CI −63.91 to −10.4, n=244, 5 studies, GRADE: low). In addition, neonates who received MFR had lower rates of cholestasis, shorter time to reach full feeds and shorter hospital stay. Conclusion Low certainty of evidence suggests that MFR is associated with shorter duration of parenteral nutrition in neonates following abdominal surgery and stoma creation. Results of ongoing and future randomised trials may help to corroborate these findings. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7113 2023-09-06T18:00:07+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7655 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/7/content/7655/thumbnail_9168_2023-11-15_16-00-07.JPG Transition of Care - Patients' point of view Video on the patients' point of view (Chapter 3 of the Helsinki series).

Langer Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00037-4/fulltext  Abstract Background/Purpose A small number of Hirschsprung disease (HD) patients develop inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-like symptoms after pullthrough surgery. The etiology and pathophysiology of Hirschsprung-associated IBD (HD-IBD) remains unknown. This study aims to further characterize HD-IBD, to identify potential risk factors and to evaluate response to treatment in a large group of patients. Methods Retrospective study of patients diagnosed with IBD after pullthrough surgery between 2000 and 2021 at 17 institutions. Data regarding clinical presentation and course of HD and IBD were reviewed. Effectiveness of medical therapy for IBD was recorded using a Likert scale. Results There were 55 patients (78% male). 50% (n = 28) had long segment disease. Hirschsprung-associated enterocolitis (HAEC) was reported in 68% (n = 36). Ten patients (18%) had Trisomy 21. IBD was diagnosed after age 5 in 63% (n = 34). IBD presentation consisted of colonic or small bowel inflammation resembling IBD in 69% (n = 38), unexplained or persistent fistula in 18% (n = 10) and unexplained HAEC >5 years old or unresponsive to standard treatment in 13% (n = 7).

Prior to embarking on a prospective EA surveillance registry, we sought to understand EA surveillance practices within the Eastern Pediatric Surgery Network (EPSN). Methods An anonymous, 23-question Qualtrics survey was emailed to 181 physicians (surgeons and gastroenterologists) at 19 member institutions. Likert scale questions gauged agreement with international EA surveillance guideline-derived statements. Multiple-choice questions assessed individual and institutional practices. Results The response rate was 77%. Most respondents (80%) strongly agree or agree that EA surveillance endoscopy should follow a set schedule, while only 36% claimed to perform routine upper GI endoscopy regardless of symptoms. Many institutions (77%) have an aerodigestive clinic, even if some lack a multi-disciplinary EA team. Most physicians (72%) expressed strong interest in helping develop evidence-based guidelines. Conclusions Our survey reveals physician agreement with current guidelines but weak adherence. Surveillance methods vary greatly, underscoring the lack of evidence-based data to guide EA care. Aerodigestive clinics may help implement surveillance schedules.

Gillipelli, Luca Pio, Paul D. Losty, Abdelhafeez H. Abdelhafeez Artículo completo: https://gcmd.co/3QNpBML Antecedentes y objetivos A medida que las tasas de supervivencia en el cáncer infantil progresan significativamente, los resultados de salud en la edad adulta son fundamentales para la calidad de vida (CdV). Las pacientes femeninas sometidas a quimioterapia y radiación para el cáncer infantil pueden experimentar efectos adversos como insuficiencia ovárica relacionada con gonadotoxicidad. La criopreservación del tejido ovárico (OTC) está bien estudiada en adultos, pero sólo recientemente ha comenzado a explorarse en un esfuerzo por preservar la fertilidad en pacientes jóvenes con cáncer infantil. Esta revisión sistemática tiene como objetivo resaltar críticamente los resultados contemporáneos de la criopreservación en pacientes pediátricas con cáncer. Métodos Se realizó una búsqueda sistemática en las bases de datos PubMed, Embase y Web of Science para identificar artículos y resúmenes de texto completo en inglés publicados entre 2004 y 2022 que describieran la criopreservación entre niñas (0 a 21 años) con cáncer. Se seleccionaron resúmenes y artículos de texto completo para su inclusión. Posteriormente, se extrajeron y analizaron los datos de los estudios elegibles. Se utilizaron estadísticas descriptivas para estimar los resultados generales de la criopreservación. Resultados De 104 resúmenes y 34 artículos de texto completo, se incluyeron 12 estudios. Se recopilaron datos de 7 países del mundo e involucraron a unos 612 pacientes pediátricos y adolescentes con enfermedades malignas.

Methods We performed a single-institution retrospective review of patients who underwent surgery for ARM then were treated for rectal prolapse at our institution from 2014 to 2024. Demographics, clinical characteristics, and surgical outcomes were assessed, and compared using Chi-squared or Fisher's exact testing. Results Of the 1275 patients with ARM treated at our institution during this period, 85 patients with previously repaired ARM underwent rectal prolapse repair (54 males, 63.53 %). Median age at initial surgery for rectal prolapse was 3 years (IQR 1.25–6.50). Median follow-up duration was 4 years (IQR 1.50–6.00). Recurrent prolapse requiring repeat repair occurred in 26 patients (30.59 %). Clinically significant post-operative stricture was identified in 27 patients (31.76 %), of whom 24 underwent Heineke-Mikulicz stricturoplasty (88.89 %). Patients who developed stricture were significantly more likely to have been asymptomatic from their prolapse on initial presentation compared to patients who did not develop stricture (N = 22, 81.48 % vs N = 32, 55.17 %, p = 0.028). Asymptomatic patients had a stricture rate of 40.74 %, as compared to 16.13 % for symptomatic patients. The presence of an ostomy and undergoing simultaneous ostomy takedown with prolapse repair was significantly associated with recurrent prolapse (p = 0.016), but not post-operative stricture formation (p = 0.769). There was no difference in rates of prolapse recurrence (p = 0.086) or anal stricture formation (p = 0.757) between patients who underwent partial, complete circumferential, or planned two-stage repair of a circumferential prolapse.

Most pediatric surgeons have experienced the trauma of a medical error, yet, in a survey of APSA membership, almost half said that no one reached out to them, and few were satisfied with their institution's response to the error. Thus, the APSA Wellness Committee developed an APSA-based peer support program to meet this need. Methods: Peer supporters were nominated by fellow APSA members, and the group was vetted to ensure diversity in demographics, practice setting, and seniority. Formal virtual training was conducted before the program went live in 2020. Trained supporters were surveyed 6 months after the program launched to evaluate their experiences with providing peer support. Results: 15 referrals were made in the first year, 60 % of which were self-initiated. Most referrals were for distress related to adverse events or toxic work environments (33 % each). While only about 25 % of trained supporters had provided formal support through the APSA program, more than 80 % reported using the skills to support colleagues and trainees within their own institutions. Conclusion: Our experience in the first year of the APSA peer support program demonstrates the feasibility of building and maintaining a national program to provide emotional first aid by a professional society to expand the safety net for surgeons who are suffering.   https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9262 2024-10-09T08:48:00+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8804 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/8804/thumbnail_10354_2024-07-05_06-37-52.jpg Resultados después de la cirugía para niños en África Nuevo artículo que tienes que conocer, seleccionado por la Sociedad Chilena de Cirugía Pediátrica, resumido por la Dra. Cecilia Gigena "Resultados después de la cirugía para niños en África (ASOS-Paeds): un estudio de cohorte observacional prospectivo de 14 días" Autores: ASOS-Paeds Artículo completo: https://gcmd.co/4eWHXFR Antecedentes: La anestesia y la cirugía seguras son un imperativo de salud pública. Hay pocos datos que describan los resultados de los niños sometidos a anestesia y cirugía en África. Nuestro objetivo era obtener datos epidemiológicos sólidos para describir la atención al paciente y los resultados de los niños sometidos a anestesia y cirugía en hospitales de África. Métodos: Este estudio fue un estudio de cohorte observacional, prospectivo, internacional, de 14 días de duración, de niños (<18 años) sometidos a cirugía en África. Reclutamos tantos hospitales como fuera posible en todos los niveles de atención (primero, segundo y tercero) que brindaran tratamiento quirúrgico. Cada hospital reclutó a todos los niños elegibles durante un período de 14 días que comenzó en la fecha elegida por cada hospital participante dentro del período de reclutamiento del estudio del 15 de enero al 23 de diciembre de 2022. Los datos se recopilaron de forma prospectiva para pacientes consecutivos en formularios de registro de casos en papel. El resultado primario fueron las complicaciones postoperatorias intrahospitalarias dentro de los 30 días posteriores a la cirugía y el resultado secundario fue la mortalidad hospitalaria dentro de los 30 días posteriores a la cirugía. También recopilamos datos a nivel hospitalario que describen los equipos, las instalaciones y los protocolos disponibles. Este estudio está registrado en ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05061407. Hallazgos: Reclutamos a 8625 niños de 249 hospitales en 31 países africanos. La edad media fue de 6,1 (DE 4,9) años, y 5.675 (66.0%) de 8.600 niños eran varones.

Cecilia Gigena, seleccionado por la Sociedad Chilena de Cirujanos Pediátricos "Volumen testicular en la pubertad en niños con criptorquidia congénita aleatorizados a tratamiento en diferentes edades" Autores: Claude Kollin, Agneta Nordenskjöld, Martin Ritzén Artículo completo: https://gcmd.co/3YlqLDO Objetivo: evaluar el volumen testicular en la pubertad en niños que se sometieron a orquidopexia a los 9 o 36 meses en comparación con niños con descenso posnatal espontáneo. Métodos: a los 6 meses de edad, los niños con criptorquidia unilateral congénita fueron asignados aleatoriamente a cirugía a los 9 o 39 meses de edad y se les dio seguimiento hasta los 16 años en paralelo con los niños con descenso postnatal espontáneo. Se realizó ecografía a los 11 y 16 años para determinar volumen testicular. La proporción entre el testículo inicialmente no descendido y su contraparte escrotal se utilizó para evaluar el crecimiento testicular. Resultados: A los 16 años, la proporción fue menor (p < 0,00) en el grupo tardío en comparación con el grupo temprano. A los 16 años, los testículos descendidos espontáneamente eran significativamente más pequeños que sus homólogos escrotales pero más grandes que los grupos operados (p <0,01 temprano y p <0,00 tardío). Conclusión: Nuestros datos a los 16 años muestran que la orquidopexia a los 9 meses da como resultado un mejor crecimiento testicular en comparación con los 3 años, pero no alcanzó los volúmenes correspondientes de sus contrapartes escrotales. Esto indica que una cirugía más temprana es beneficiosa para el crecimiento testicular. A los 16 años, los testículos descendidos posnatalmente no sólo eran más grandes que los testículos tratados quirúrgicamente sino que también presentaban un crecimiento testicular deficiente. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8947 2024-07-30T14:00:03+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8012 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/8012/thumbnail_9544_2024-02-26_10-30-14.jpg Matthew Urichuk, PhD - Best of the Best in Pediatric Surgery 2024 Watch CAPS' Dr. Matthew Urichuk’s presentation on “Individuals with thoracoabdominal congenital surgical anomalies are at increased risk of adverse mental health outcomes: a longitudinal retrospective cohort study” at the 2024 Best of the Best in Pediatric Surgery event!

This innovative imaging technique offers a non-invasive, sedation-free, and radiation-free way to assess airway weakness and create detailed 3D models for better surgical planning. Key Highlights: New Diagnostic Tool: Ultrashort echo-time MRI offers high-resolution imaging without the need for sedation or radiation. Study Findings: Patients with long gap esophageal atresia showed more severe tracheomalacia than those with short gap EA. Pre- and Post-Surgical Analysis: Repair improves upper trachea eccentricity but may worsen the distal trachea postoperatively. Clinical Implications: Long gap EA patients are at higher risk for respiratory complications and require close post-operative monitoring. This research sheds light on how advanced imaging can lead to better diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care for infants with esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF). https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9953 2025-02-24T10:42:01+00:00 1 channel#pediatric_surgery ultrashort echo-time MRI pediatric surgery pedsurg some4pedsurg tracheomalacia neonates esophageal atresia Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7899 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/7899/thumbnail_9428_2024-01-17_18-00-06.jpg Pectus Arcuatum a Pectus Unlike any Other New article you should know about From JPS by Dr. Cecilia GIgena "Pectus Arcuatum: A Pectus Unlike Any Other"  Authors: Sarah Abdellaoui, Aurélien Scalabre, Christian Piolat, Frédéric Lavrand, Amane-Allah Lachkar, Anne Lehn, Clémence Klipfel, Brice Henry, Valentin Soldea, Frédéric Hameury, François Becmeur Full article: https://gcmd.co/48bwRZ9 Background Pectus arcuatum is often mistaken for a type of pectus carinatum. However, pectus arcuatum is a unique clinical form of pectus caused by premature obliteration of the sternal sutures (manubrial sternum, four sternebrae and xiphoïd process), whereas pectus carinatum is due to abnormal growth of the costal cartilage. In order to better describe pectus arcuatum, we analysed the files of patients with pectus arcuatum followed in our centers. Methods Multicenter retrospective study of young patients’ files diagnosed with pectus arcuatum. Results The clinical diagnosis of pectus arcuatum was made in 34 patients with a mean age at diagnosis of 10.3 years (4–23 years). A chest profile X-ray or a CT scan was performed in 16 patients (47%) and confirmed the diagnosis of PA by the presence of a sternal fusion. It was complete in 12 patients. A malformation was associated in 35% of cases (Noonan syndrome 33%, scoliosis 25% or cardiopathy 16%). 11 patients (32%) had a family history of skeletal malformation. Orthopedic treatment was initiated in 3 patients without any success. 11 patients underwent surgical correction, which was completed in 7 of them. Conclusion The diagnosis of pectus arcuatum is based on clinical experience and if necessary, on a profile chest X-ray showing the fusion of the sternal pieces. It implies the search for any associated malformations (musculoskeletal, cardiac, syndromic). Bracing treatment is useless for pectus arcuatum. Corrective surgery, based on a sternotomy associated with a partial chondro-costal resection, can be performed at the end of growth. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7899 2024-01-17T18:00:06+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5874 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/5874/thumbnail_5874_2022-09-19_18-00-07.jpg Machine Learning - Transforming Healthcare, Episode 8 Part 1 We’re back with another new technology that we believe will transform healthcare. Machine learning… Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell! Hosts: Em Tombash, MD, Todd Ponsky, MD, Ramy Shaaban MD, PhD Machine learning is a subfield of AI which allows a machine to automatically learn from past data without programming. The difference between machine learning and AI is frequently misunderstood. Machine learning learns and predicts based on passive observations, whereas AI implies an agent interacting with the environment to learn and take actions that maximize its chance of successfully achieving its goals. #Machinelearning algorithms allow us to use the data we gather to make predictions about the future, taking humans out of the equation as much as possible. Present day machine learning has two purposes, one is to classify data based on models which have been developed, the other purpose is to make predictions for future outcomes. A hypothetical algorithm specific to classifying data may use computer vision of moles coupled with supervised learning in order to train it to classify cancerous moles and a machine learning algorithm for stock trading may predict the future potential trends. Machine learning has proven valuable because it can solve problems at a speed and scale that can't be duplicated by the human mind alone. With massive computational ability for a single task or multiple specific tasks, machines can be trained to identify patterns in and relationships between input data and automate routine processes. But it is important to understand what machine learning can and cannot do.

Jason Smithers, Jill M. Zalieckas, Samuel E. Rice-Townsend, Ali Kamran, David Zurakowski, Terry L. Buchmiller Artículo completo: https://gcmd.co/3ShoG94 introducción El momento óptimo para la reparación quirúrgica de los lactantes con hernia diafragmática congénita (CDH) tratados con soporte de oxigenación por membrana extracorpórea (ECMO) sigue siendo controvertido. Muchos centros consideran el riesgo de hemorragia quirúrgica como un factor principal a la hora de determinar el momento preferido para la reparación de la HDC en los lactantes que requieren soporte con ECMO. Este estudio compara el sangrado quirúrgico después de la reparación de CDH con ECMO de manera temprana versus tardía. Métodos Una revisión retrospectiva de 146 bebés que se sometieron a reparación de CDH mientras recibían soporte de ECMO entre 1995 y 2021. La reparación temprana se produjo durante las primeras 48 h después de la canulación de ECMO (ER) y la reparación tardía después de 48 h (DR). El sangrado quirúrgico se definió por el requisito de una nueva intervención para hemostasia o descompresión. Resultados 102 lactantes tuvieron ER y 44 lactantes DR. El sangrado quirúrgico fue más frecuente en el grupo de DR (36 % frente a 5 %, p < 0,001) con un odds ratio de 11,7 (IC del 95 %: 3,48–39,3, p < 0,001). El nivel de nitrógeno ureico en sangre el día de la reparación estuvo significativamente elevado entre los que sangraron (mediana 63 mg/dL, IQR 20-85) frente a los que no lo hicieron (mediana 9 mg/dL, IQR 7-13) (p < 0,0001 ). La duración del soporte ECMO fue más corta en el grupo de urgencias (mediana 13 frente a 18 días, p = 0,005). La supervivencia no fue estadísticamente diferente entre los dos grupos (ER 60 % frente a DR 57 %, p = 0,737).

An updated meta-analysis was conducted to re-evaluate the surgical outcomes of TR. Methods: A comprehensive literature search comparing TR and OR in neonates was performed in accordance with the PRISMA statement (PROSPERO: CRD42020166588). Results: Fourteen studies were selected for quantitative analysis, including a total of 709 patients (TR: 308 cases, OR: 401 cases). The recurrence rate was higher [Odds ratio: 4.03, 95% CI (2.21, 7.36), p < 0.001] and operative times (minutes) were longer [Mean Difference (MD): 43.96, 95% CI (24.70, 63.22), p < 0.001] for TR compared to OR. A significant reduction in the occurrence of postoperative bowel obstruction was observed in TR (5.0%) compared to OR (14.8%) [Odds ratio: 0.42, 95% CI (0.20, 0.89), p = 0.02]. Conclusions: TR remains associated with higher recurrence rates and longer operative times. However, the reduced risk of postoperative bowel obstruction suggests potential long-term benefits. This study emphasizes the importance of meticulous patient selection for TR to mitigate detrimental effects on patients with severe disease. spaces/1/content/9359/file_10915_2024-10-29_18-02-58.mp4 2024-10-29T18:02:58+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6328 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/6328/thumbnail_6328_2023-02-01_22-00-12.jpg BOB in Ped Surg 2023 - PAPSA Winner - Mohamad Mahmoud Qinawy, MD Watch the PAPSA winner, Mohamad Mahmoud Qinawy, MD, present his presentation on "Comparative study of laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication vs Hill-snow procedure for treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease in children." https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6328 2023-02-01T22:00:12+00:00 2 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6764 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/6764/thumbnail_6764_2023-06-21_22-00-10.jpg Utilizar un equipo de respuesta de vía aerea crítica acelera la extracción de la pila botón esofágica ¡Nuevo artículo que debes conocer! por Cecilia Gigena "Utilizar un equipo de respuesta de vía aerea crítica acelera la extracción de la pila botón esofágica" Brandt K et.al.

Campbell Artículo completo: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00056-8/fulltext Abstract Introducción  La ingestión de pilas botón que se alojan en el esófago son un problema que puede provocar complicaciones importantes, como fístula traqueoesofágica, perforación esofágica y fístula aortoesofágica. Debido a esto, el reconocimiento y el tratamiento oportunos son integrales en el cuidado de estos pacientes. Métodos En este estudio se incluyeron pacientes que acudieron a una sola institución desde agosto de 2015 hasta abril de 2022 con ingestión de pila botón hallada en esófago. Todos los pacientes con ingestión de pila botón en el esófago se incluyeron en un algoritmo clínico para la activación del Equipo de respuesta de la vía aérea dificultosa (CART) en octubre de 2019. Se comparó el tiempo desde el diagnóstico hasta el tratamiento para la implementación del algoritmo clínico previo al CART con el posterior al CART. Resultados Se recopilaron datos sobre pacientes pre-CART (n = 6) y pacientes post-CART (n = 7). La inclusión de las ingestiones de pilas botón esofágicas en las activaciones de CART redujo el tiempo desde la radiografía de tórax hasta la extracción de las mismas de 73 ± 32 min a 35 ± 11 min (p < 0,05). Conclusión Estos datos resaltan la importancia de la implementación de un algoritmo de atención clínica para acortar el tiempo desde el diagnóstico hasta el tratamiento en pacientes con ingestión de pilas de botón esofágicas.

Full text: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(24)00077-0/fulltext Background: Enteral feeding is an essential part of the management of infants with gastroschisis. We hypothesized that exclusive breast milk is associated with improved neonatal outcomes. Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of infants with uncomplicated gastroschisis through the Canadian Pediatric Surgery Network (CAPSNet) and Canadian Neonatal Network (CNN). The primary outcome was time to full enteral feeds. Results: We identified 411 infants with gastroschisis treated at CAPSNet centres from 2014 to 2022. 144 patients were excluded due to gestational age <32 weeks, birth weight <1500 g, other congenital anomalies, or complicated gastroschisis. Of the remaining 267 participants, 78% (n = 209) received exclusive breast milk diet in the first 28 days of life, whereas 22% (n = 58) received supplemental or exclusive formula. Infants who received exclusive breast milk experienced higher time to reach full enteral feeding (median 24 vs 22 days, p = 0.047) but were more likely to have undergone delayed abdominal closure (32% vs 17%, p = 0.03). After adjustment, there were no significant differences between groups in time to reach full enteral feeds, duration of parenteral nutrition, or length of stay. Infants who received supplemental or exclusive formula had a similar risk of necrotizing enterocolitis (4% vs 3%) but were less likely to transition to exclusive breast milk at discharge (73% vs 11%, p < 0.001). Conclusion: Early use of exclusive breast milk in infants with uncomplicated gastroschisis is associated with similar outcomes compared to supplemental or exclusive formula. Patients who received supplemental or exclusive formula were unlikely to transition to exclusive breastfeeding by discharge. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9037 2024-08-19T06:13:02+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1603 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1603/thumbnail_1843_2019-08-16_16-00-09.jpg Journal Club: Review of 2018 Pediatric Surgery Practice Gaps Drs Todd Ponsky, Alex Casar, Alexander Gibbons and Rae Hanke review the top ten practice gaps from 2018, as identified by APSA's Professional Development Committee. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1603 2019-08-16T16:00:09+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10772 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/10772/c7f29b5ea220099cb263e3025cfae933.jpg Update Course Rewind: When & How to Operate CDH Patients on ECMO 2024 In this session from the 12th Annual Update Course in Pediatric Surgery, Drs. Rebecca Stark and Steven Lee from Seattle Children’s Hospital walk through the timing, technique, and controversies surrounding ECMO in severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) cases. Key Highlights: VV vs VA ECMO: While venovenous (VV) ECMO is gaining traction with improved cannulas, venoarterial (VA) ECMO remains the predominant choice for most centers treating CDH. When to initiate ECMO: Early intervention is often favored in high-risk CDH cases, especially when prenatal imaging suggests severe compromise. SPHERE protocol in decision-making: A structured approach from Michigan offers criteria for ECMO vs comfort care, but outcome prediction remains unreliable—50% of decisions based on early data may be incorrect. Controversy in selection: Dr. Stark advocates for offering ECMO to all infants with isolated unilateral CDH, emphasizing the importance of treating every case as a potential survivor. Role of prenatal counseling: Early, transparent discussions with families are critical for navigating high-stakes decisions and aligning on care pathways. This session underscores both the technical and ethical complexity in managing severe CDH—and the need for thoughtful protocols paired with clinical flexibility. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10772 2025-08-06T11:35:36+00:00 3 channel#pediatric_surgery pediatric surgery pedsurg some4pedsurg pediatric surgery controversies ECMO severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia cdh Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8475 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8475/thumbnail_10012_2024-04-04_07-23-55.jpg Successful Adolescent Varicocelectomy Improves Total Motile Sperm Count New article you should know about from JPS by Kim Priban DNP, RN "Successful Adolescent Varicocelectomy Improves Total Motile Sperm Count" Authors: Raymond Lay, Tanya Logvinenko, Michael P. Kurtz, Saafia Masoom, Alyssia Venna & David A Diamond Full article: https:/doi.org/10.1016/j.jpedsurg.2023.08.007 Abstract Background: Management of the adolescent varicocele focuses on optimizing fertility potential, but to date there is limited data on the success of varicocelectomy on optimizing semen parameters for individual adolescent patients. We reviewed our database of over 1600 adolescent varicocele patients to find those with pre- and postoperative semen analyses to determine the impact of varicocele correction. Methods: 15 Tanner stage V patients with unilateral clinically apparent left-sided with pre- and postoperative semen analyses were identified. Mixed models were used to compare semen parameters pre- and post-varicocelectomy in patients with successful management. Results: Complete elimination of the varicocele was achieved in 12/15 (80%) patients. Three patients had persistent varicocele (with down-grading in two) and declined further intervention. Median time between pre- and postoperative semen analyses was 24.2 months. For those with successful varicocele correction, total motile sperm count (TMSC) improved in all but one (Figure 1), with an average increase of 44.0 million (95% CI: 18.7–69.3) in post-varicocelectomy analyses compared to pre-varicocelectomy (p = 0.0016). Mean percent improvement was 649.2%. It went from abnormal to normal (≥20 million/cc) in 55.6% (5/9). For the three patients with persistent varicocele, one had improved TMSC from abnormal to normal range, one had worsening within normal range, and one had effectively no change. Conclusion: Successful correction of adolescent varicocele may improve TMSC. In over half of our institution's cases, an abnormal value normalized.

FETO is performed percutaneously by inserting into the trachea a balloon designed for vascular occlusion. However, reports on the potential postnatal side-effects of the balloon are scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of tracheomalacia in infants with CDH managed with and without FETO and other consequences related to the use of the balloon. Methods: In this multicentre, retrospective cohort study, we included infants who were live born with CDH, either with FETO or without, who were managed postnatally at four centres (UZ Leuven, Leuven, Belgium; Antoine Béclère, Clamart, France; BCNatal, Barcelona, Spain; and HCor-Heart Hospital, São Paulo, Brazil) between April 5, 2002, and June 2, 2021. We primarily assessed the prevalence of all (symptomatic and asymptomatic) tracheomalacia as reported in medical records among infants with and without FETO. Secondarily we assessed the prevalence of symptomatic tracheomalacia and its resolution as reported in medical records, and compared tracheal diameters as measured on postnatal x-rays. Crude and adjusted risk ratios (aRRs) and 95% CIs were calculated via modified Poisson regression models with robust error variances for potential association between FETO and tracheomalacia. Variables included in the adjusted model were the side of the hernia, observed-to-expected lung-to-head ratio, and gestational age at birth. Crude and adjusted mean differences and 95% CIs were calculated via linear regression models to assess the presence and magnitude of assoc spaces/1/content/9334/file_10889_2024-10-22_09-06-13.mp4 2024-10-22T09:06:13+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7265 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7265/thumbnail_8755_2023-10-09_22-00-08.jpg Update Course 2023 - Top Disruptive Technologies in Healthcare This session is on the top disruptive techologies in healthcare with Drs.

Digital twin… Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell! A digital twin is a virtual representation of an object or system that is updated from real-time data, and uses simulation, machine learning and reasoning to help decision-making. The first practical definition of digital twin originated from NASA in an attempt to improve physical model simulation of spacecraft in 2010. With the help of a digital twin, companies can test and validate a product before it even exists in the real world. Generally, by creating a replica of the planned production process, a digital twin enables engineers to identify any process failures before the product goes into production. The use of cognitive computing increases the abilities and scientific disciplines in the digital twin. Technologies and techniques such as Natural Language Processing (NLP), machine learning, object/visual recognition, acoustic analytics, and signal processing are just a few of features used for creating digital twins. Going forward there will be a transition towards cheaper, more accessible, and easier to use digital twins culminating in its democratization. Individuals and smaller companies will have access to the benefits as well as larger companies, increasing the use of the technology rapidly.

Ivan Males, Zvonimir Boban, Marko Kumric, Josip Vrdoljak, Karlotta Berkovic, Zenon Pogorelic & Josko Bozic Full article here. The diagnosis of acute appendicitis and concurrent surgery referral is primarily based on clinical presentation, laboratory and radiological imaging. However, utilizing such an approach results in as much as 10–15% of negative appendectomies. Hence, in the present study, we aimed to develop a machine learning (ML) model designed to reduce the number of negative appendectomies in pediatric patients with a high clinical probability of acute appendicitis. The model was developed and validated on a registry of 551 pediatric patients with suspected acute appendicitis that underwent surgical treatment. Clinical, anthropometric, and laboratory features were included for model training and analysis. Three machine learning algorithms were tested (random forest, eXtreme Gradient Boosting, logistic regression) and model explainability was obtained. Random forest model provided the best predictions achieving mean specificity and sensitivity of 0.17 ± 0.01 and 0.997 ± 0.001 for detection of acute appendicitis, respectively. Furthermore, the model outperformed the appendicitis inflammatory response (AIR) score across most sensitivity–specificity combinations. Finally, the random forest model again provided the best predictions for discrimination between complicated appendicitis, and either uncomplicated acute appendicitis or no appendicitis at all, with a joint mean sensitivity of 0.994 ± 0.002 and specificity of 0.129 ± 0.009. In conclusion, the developed ML model might save as much as 17% of patients with a high clinical probability of acute appendicitis from unnecessary surgery, while missing the needed surgery in only 0.3% of cases. Additionally, it showed better diagnostic accuracy than the AIR score, as well as good accuracy in predicting complicated acute appendicitis over uncomplicated and negati https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9062 2024-08-26T06:59:56+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11476 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/11476-78cc8e5e8e.jpg Essential Knowledge and Skills for the Practice of Pediatric Surgical Oncology- A Modified Delphi Consensus Study by the APSA Cancer Committee Elisabeth T Tracy, Abigail Engwall, Erin G Brown, Raphael C Sun, Ashley Walther, Catherine B Beckhorn, Dave Lal, David H Rothstein, Jonathan Roach, Nicholas Cost, Barrie S Rich, Peter F Ehrlich, Jennifer H Aldrink, David Rodeberg; KidsCancerSurgery* Research GroupPurpose: Childhood cancer care has become increasingly complex. However, the exclusive practice of pediatric surgical oncology is not feasible for most surgeons taking care of these children. Thus, the American Pediatric Surgical Association (APSA) Cancer Committee conducted a modified Delphi study to reach a national consensus on the essential knowledge, skills, and institutional setting for surgeons caring for children with cancer.Methods: After development of candidate statements, the APSA Cancer Committee conducted a modified Delphi process consisting of two classic rounds and a third consensus round. Statements were reviewed by an expert panel consisting of pediatric surgical oncologists, pediatric medical oncologists, pediatric surgery program directors, general pediatric, recent pediatric surgery graduates. Consensus was defined a priori as Cronbach's alpha > 0.8 and greater than 80% panel agreement.Results: Initial candidate statements comprised eight domains including solid tumors, metastasis, and institution resources. After review by the expert panel consisting of 35 panelists from 24 institutions across 18 US states and Canada, 177 statements achieved consensus. Internal consistency was excellent (Cronbach's alpha 0.989, 0.987, and 0.987 after rounds 1-3). A major emphasis of the consensus statements was on the importance of multidisciplinary care, including multidisciplinary surgical teams for complex resections, and knowledge of current tumor-specific management principles.Conclusions: This study represents the first national consensus study of the knowledge and skills essential for pediatric surgical oncology. These results should inform ongoing conversations about how best to match children spaces/18/content/11476/file_11476_1_1770650078940.mp4 2026-02-09T15:14:38+00:00 Pediatric cancer Pediatric surgical oncology Regionalization of care Specialization Surgical quality pediatric surgery some4pedsurg oncology APSA American Pediatric Surgical Association Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2999 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/2999/thumbnail_2999_2020-09-14_08-00-09.jpg Top Themes From The Stay Current App This clip from the 2020 Pediatric Surgery Update Course features Alejandra Casar Berazaluce, MD; Alexander Gibbons, MD; Rachel Hanke, MD; presenting the most popular posts in the 2020 version of the Stay Current: Pediatric Surgery App.  Highlighted Topics Include: - Anorectal Malformations - Diaphragmatic Hernia repair - Esophageal Atresia - Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease - Pyloric Stenosis - Perioperative Management - Hirschsprung Disease - Intussusception - Blunt Solid Organ Injury https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2999 2020-09-14T08:00:09+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8523 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8523/thumbnail_10061_2024-04-17_08-27-18.jpg Update Course Rewind: Management of Acute Pancreatitis 2023 We are back with another Update Course Rewind video from the Update course in Pediatric Surgery 2023.

Methods  PD patients who underwent laser epilation (LE) were categorized by Fitzpatrick skin type, hair color, and hair thickness. Photos taken at LE sessions were compared to determine hair reduction amount. LE sessions completed prior to the recurrences were recorded. Groups were compared using multivariate T-test. Results  198 PD patients had mean age 18.1 ± 3.6 years. 21, 156, and 21 patients had skin types 1/2, 3/4, and 5/6, respectively. 47 patients had light- and 151 had dark-colored hair. 29 patients had fine hair, 129 medium, and 40 thick. Median follow-up was 217 days. 95%, 70%, 40%, and 19% of patients reached 20%, 50%, 75%, and 90% hair reduction after mean LE sessions of 2.6, 4.3, 6.6, 7.8 sessions, respectively. To reach 75% hair reduction, patients require a mean of 4.8-6.8 LE sessions, depending on different skin/hair characteristics. PD recurrence rate was 6%. Probability of recurrence after 20%, 50%, 75% hair reduction was decreased by 50%, 78%, 100%, respectively. Dark hair and skin type 5/6 were associated with higher recurrence rates. Conclusion Patients with dark-color and thick hair require more LE sessions to achieve certain degree of hair reduction. Patients with dark hair and skin type 5/6 were more likely to recur; more hair reduction correlated with lower chance of recurrence.   spaces/1/content/7759/file_9274_2023-12-06_22-00-05.mp4 2023-12-06T22:00:05+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7618 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7618/thumbnail_9131_2023-11-13_16-00-11.jpg IPEG 2021 - SS3 Anorectal II IPEG 2021  Scientific Session 3 - Anorectal II spaces/2/content/7618/file_9131_2023-11-13_16-00-11.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:11+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3969 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3969/thumbnail_3969_2021-04-26_13-36-48.jpg IPEG 2018 - MASTERY LEARNING FOR PEDIATRIC SURGEONS IPEG 2018 Annual Meeting Scientific Session: Basic Science and Innovation Mastery Learning: The Correlation of Baseline Advanced Skill Metrics and Summative Performance K.A.

Levitt Abstract Background In patients with Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), soiling may be related to anal sphincter damage following the initial pull-through. No optimal treatment has been developed for such patients, although enemas (rectal or antegrade) have been applied with some success. We present the one-year outcomes of a new technique for anal sphincter reconstruction. Methods All patients with HSCR referred from other institutions for post pull-through soiling were studied. Seven patients with patulous sphincters underwent sphincter reconstruction. Six had a full preoperative evaluation and were included in the study. Their 12-month outcomes were assessed. Results All six patients had soiling without voluntary bowel movements (VBMs). One patient was clean on Malone flushes when referred. Three underwent pre- and post-reconstruction non-sedated three-dimensional anorectal manometry, and objectively were able to close their sphincters following the reconstruction. All patients without Down syndrome (4 of 6) showed improvement in the abbreviated Baylor Continence Scale (4.5 vs. 0.75). One patient has achieved total bowel control without antegrade flushes, three now have VBMs which they did not have before but have occasional accidents and use antegrade flushes intermittently. They reported higher productivity, the ability to participate in sports and be away from home with confidence in their regimen.

Bennett, Lisa DeCamp, Jose L. Diaz-Miron Full article: https://gcmd.co/3wFqtMo Introduction Appendicitis is the most common indication for emergency general surgery in the pediatric population. Computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be used for diagnosis when ultrasound findings are equivocal. However, CT involves unnecessary radiation exposure if MRI is available. After introducing a rapid sequence MRI (rsMRI) appendicitis protocol at our institution, CT was still preferentially used. We therefore implemented a quality improvement (QI) campaign to reduce the rate of CTs and increase the rate of rsMRI. Here, we assess the effectiveness of the QI campaign while evaluating potential barriers to using rsMRI. Methods We conducted a mixed methods study, first performing stakeholder interviews which informed the design of a QI campaign initiated in May 2021 and a midway feedback survey in December 2021. A retrospective cohort study was then performed of children evaluated for appendicitis at our institution between January 1, 2016, and April 30, 2022. CT and rsMRI rates were compared before and after QI campaign implementation. Results There was a significant decrease in rate of CTs and increase in rate of rsMRIs performed following the initiation of the QI campaign (p < 0.0001). The rate of CT scans decreased by a factor of 0.4 while the rate of rsMRI increased by a factor of 9.5. Conclusion A successful QI campaign was initiated at our institution, resulting in decreased utilization of CT and increased use of rsMRI for the evalua https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8051 2024-03-06T08:20:06+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2246 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/2246/thumbnail_3172_2020-02-24_19-58-27.jpg Rigid Bronchoscopy for Diagnosis and Treatment of Proximal Pouch Fistula in...

Jason Smithers, Jill M. Zalieckas, Samuel E. Rice–Townsend, Ali Kamran, David Zurakowski, Terry L. Buchmiller Full article: https://gcmd.co/3ShoG94 Background The optimal timing of surgical repair for infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support remains controversial. The risk of surgical bleeding is considered by many centers as a primary factor in determining the preferred timing of CDH repair for infants requiring ECMO support. This study compares surgical bleeding following CDH repair on ECMO in early versus delayed fashion. Methods A retrospective review of 146 infants who underwent CDH repair while on ECMO support from 1995 to 2021. Early repair occurred during the first 48 h after ECMO cannulation (ER) and delayed repair after 48 h (DR). Surgical bleeding was defined by the requirement of reoperative intervention for hemostasis or decompression. Results 102 infants had ER and 44 infants DR. Surgical bleeding was more frequent in the DR group (36% vs 5%, p < 0.001) with an odds ratio of 11.7 (95% CI: 3.48–39.3, p < 0.001). Blood urea nitrogen level on the day of repair was significantly elevated among those who bled (median 63 mg/dL, IQR 20–85) vs. those who did not (median 9 mg/dL, IQR 7–13) (p < 0.0001). Duration of ECMO support was shorter in the ER group (median 13 vs 18 days, p = 0.005). Survival was not statistically different between the two groups (ER 60% vs. DR 57%, p = 0.737). Conclusion We demonstrate a significantly lower incidence of bleeding and shorter duration of ECMO with early CDH repair. Azotemia was a strong risk factor for surgical bleeding associated with delayed CDH repair on ECMO. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7538 2023-11-01T22:00:08+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7313 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/7313/thumbnail_8803_2023-10-11_16-00-09.jpg Cost and outcomes of intercostal nerve cryoablation versus thoracic epidural following the Nuss procedure New article you should know by Dr. Alex Halpern "Cost and outcomes of intercostal nerve cryoablation versus thoracic epidural following the Nuss procedure" Authors: Perez Holguín RA, DeAngelo N, Sinha A, Shen C, Tsai AY Full article: https://gcmd.co/46oKG6c Background Pectus excavatum is the most common congenital chest wall abnormality, with the Nuss procedure being the most commonly performed repair. Pain control is the predominant factor in the postoperative treatment of these patients. This study aims to compare the cost and outcomes of intercostal nerve cryoablation (INC) and thoracic epidural (TE) in patients undergoing the Nuss procedure. Methods A retrospective chart review was conducted at our institution for all patients who underwent the Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum from 2002 to 2020. Patients were stratified by pain management strategy, INC vs. TE. Chi-square and Fisher's exact were used to compare categorical variables. Wilcoxon tests were used to evaluate continuous variables and costs. Results A total of 158 patients were identified. Of these, 80.4% (N = 127) were treated with epidural, while 19.6% (N = 31) were treated with intercostal nerve cryoablation. The INC group had lower rates of PCA use (35.5% vs. 93.7%, p < 0.001), lower total morphine milligram equivalent requirement (27.0 vs. 290.8, p < 0.001), and shorter length of stay (3.2 days vs. 5.3 days, p < 0.001) compared to the TE group. INC was also associated with longer operative times (153.0 min vs. 89.0 min, p < 0.001). The total hospitalization cost for the INC group was higher compared to the TE group ($24,742.5 vs $21,621.9, p = 0.001). Conclusions In patients undergoing the Nuss procedure, compared to thoracic epidural, INC was associated with lower opioid use and shorter length of stay but at the cost of longer operative time and increased hospitalization cost. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7313 2023-10-11T16:00:09+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11278 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/11278-da98f962d5.jpg Sacrococcygeal Teratomas in Currarino Syndrome: A Multicenter Review of Tumor Characteristics, Surgical Outcomes, and Recurrence Shachi Srivatsaa∙ Lindsay Gila ∙ Yueran Zhang ∙ Beth Rymeski ∙ Amelia Gavulic ∙ Grace Mak ∙ Sindhu V.

Goldstein ∙ Mark Ranalli ∙ Peter Minneci ∙ Kyle Van Arendonk ∙ Jennifer H. AldrinkBackground Currarino syndrome is a rare congenital condition characterized by a triad of anorectal malformation, sacral agenesis, and presacral mass, often a teratoma. Comparative outcomes of sacrococcygeal teratomas (SCTs) in Currarino versus non-syndromic cases are not well defined. Methods A multicenter retrospective review of pediatric SCT resections from 2010 to 2020 was conducted across 11 institutions in the Midwest Pediatric Surgery Consortium. Patients were classified based on the presence or absence of Currarino syndrome. Demographic, surgical, pathologic, and long-term outcome data were analyzed. The primary outcome was tumor recurrence. Results Of 203 patients, 25 (12.3 %) had Currarino syndrome. Currarino patients were more often diagnosed postnatally (80 % vs. 25 %, p < 0.001) and had predominantly Altman type IV tumors (87 % vs. 17 %, p < 0.001). All tumors in the Currarino cohort were mature teratomas, while 27 % of non-Currarino tumors were immature and 12 % were malignant (p < 0.001). Tumors in Currarino patients were significantly smaller in size (median 3.3 cm vs. 8.0 cm, p < 0.001). Recurrence rates were low and comparable (4 % Currarino vs. 10 % non-Currarino, p = 0.18). Currarino patients had higher rates of urinary incontinence (44 % vs. 28 %, p = 0.048) and constipation (76 % vs. 32 %, p < 0.001).

Cecilia Gigena "Una mayor cantidad de reducción del cabello mediante láser se correlaciona con una menor probabilidad de recurrencia en pacientes con enfermedad pilonidal" Autores: Fereshteh Salimi-Jazi, Claire Abrajano, Razie Yousefi, Deanna Garza, Kyla Santos Dalusag, Akanksha Sabapaty, Talha Rafeeqi, Thomas Hui, Wendy Su, Claudia Mueller, Julie Fuchs, Bill Chiu Artículo completo: https://gcmd.co/3T6wDyi Introducción El pelo en la hendidura glútea juega un papel clave en el desarrollo y recurrencia de la enfermedad pilonidal (EP). Nuestra hipótesis es que una mayor reducción del vello lograda con láser podría correlacionarse con una menor probabilidad de recurrencia de la EP. Métodos Los pacientes con EP que se sometieron a depilación láser (LE) fueron categorizados según el tipo de piel, color y grosor del cabello según Fitzpatrick. Se compararon las fotografías tomadas en las sesiones LE para determinar la cantidad de reducción del vello. Se registraron las sesiones LE completadas antes de las recurrencias. Los grupos se compararon mediante la prueba T multivariada. Resultados 198 pacientes con EP tenían una edad media de 18,1 ± 3,6 años. 21, 156 y 21 pacientes tenían tipos de piel 1/2, 3/4 y 5/6, respectivamente. 47 pacientes tenían cabello de color claro y 151 tenían cabello de color oscuro. 29 pacientes tenían cabello fino, 129 mediano y 40 grueso. La mediana de seguimiento fue de 217 días. El 95%, 70%, 40% y 19% de los pacientes alcanzaron una reducción del cabello del 20%, 50%, 75% y 90% después de sesiones medias de LE de 2,6, 4,3, 6,6 y 7,8 sesiones, respectivamente. Para alcanzar una reducción del 75% del vello, los pacientes necesitan una media de 4,8 a 6,8 sesiones de LE, dependiendo de las diferentes características de la piel y el cabello. La tasa de recurrencia de la EP fue del 6%. La probabilidad de recurrencia después de una reducción del 20%, 50% y 75% del cabello disminuyó en un 5 spaces/14/content/7760/file_9275_2023-12-06_22-00-08.mp4 2023-12-06T22:00:08+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8017 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/8017/thumbnail_9549_2024-02-26_10-42-21.jpg Giussepe Cala, PhD candidate - Best of the Best in Pediatric Surgery 2024 Watch BAPS' Giussepe Cala, PhD candidate’s presentation on “Single-cell guided prenatal derivation of primary fetal epithelial organoids from the human amniotic and tracheal fluids” at the 2024 Best of the Best in Pediatric Surgery event!

Cecilia Gigena "Comparación de la cirugía robótica versus toracoscópica para la reparación de la atresia de esófago" Autores: Mengxin Zhang, Jinshi Huang, Wei Zhong, Xi Zhang, Ying Zhou, Shuiqing Chi, Liying Rong, Yang Zhang, Guoqing Cao, Shuai Li, Shao-Tao Tang Artículo completo: https://gcmd.co/3O5VQWm Antecedentes A pesar del rápido avance de la cirugía robótica en diversos dominios quirúrgicos, solo se han informado casos de reparación robótica (RR) en recién nacidos con atresia esofágica (EA). Faltan estudios completos que comparen la RR y la reparación toracoscópica (TR). Nuestro objetivo era comparar la seguridad y eficacia de RR y TR para EA. Métodos Se realizó un estudio multicéntrico retrospectivo en 155 recién nacidos con EA sometidos a RR (79 pacientes) o TR (76 pacientes) entre agosto de 2020 y febrero de 2023 mediante emparejamiento por puntuación de propensión (PSM). Durante la RR se aplicaron técnicas de distribución asimétrica de puertos y de inserción de trocar escalonado. Se compararon los resultados demográficos y quirúrgicos. Resultados  Después del emparejamiento, se incluyeron 63 pacientes (de 79) en el grupo RR y 63 pacientes (de 76) en el grupo TR. No hubo diferencias significativas en los resultados a corto plazo entre los dos grupos, excepto por un tiempo operatorio total más largo (173,81 vs. 160,54 min; P<0,001) y un tiempo anastomótico más corto (29,52 vs. 40,21 min; P<0,001) en el grupo RR. En comparación con el grupo TR, el grupo RR tenía una edad mayor en el momento de la cirugía (8,00 frente a 3,00 días; P <0,001), pero una tasa de neumonía comparable. Más importante aún, la incidencia de fuga anastomótica (4,76% frente a 19,05%, P = 0,013), estenosis anastomótica (15,87% frente a 31,74%, P = 0,036) dentro del año posoperatorio y reingreso no planificado (32,26% frente a 60,00% , P = 0,030) dentro de los dos años posteriores a la operación fueron menores en https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7934 2024-01-31T18:00:08+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2134 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/2134/thumbnail_3059_2020-01-28_22-05-49.jpg Laparoscopic Repair of Paraesophageal Hernia This video appears in a new pediatric surgery textbook, Clinical Pediatric Surgery: A Case-Based Interactive Approach," by Dr. Sherif Emil.

Hellmann ∙ Elena Graetz ∙ Shahyan Rehman ∙ Miranda Moore ∙ Eric B. Schneider ∙ Emily R. Christison-Lagay ∙ Daniel G. SolomonPurpose Previous research on pediatric motor vehicle collisions (MVC) and fatalities has primarily focused on patient demographics and crash specific information. This study evaluates whether various measures of local infrastructure, including the National Walk Index (NWI), population density, and public school density, or macroeconomic forces, encapsulated in Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) and food area deprivation (PFA) can predict which counties are most at risk for pediatric traffic fatalities. Methods Counties with more than 100,000 children in the most recent US census and ≥1 pediatric traffic fatality as identified in the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) between 2017 and 2021 were included in the study. Poisson regression modeling was used to identify county level infrastructure and macroeconomic forces that predicted increasing MVC related average annual mortality rate per 100,000 children. Results There were 158 counties that met inclusion criteria. Univariate Poisson regression demonstrated that NWI, SVI, PFA, population density, and school density each individually correlated with MVC related mortality rate (p < 0.001 for all predictors). When controlling for SVI and population density, multivariable Poisson regression demonstrated that each decile increase in walkability was associated with a 7 % decrease in MVC related mortality rate (IRR 0.93, 95 % CI 0.91–0.96). Conclusion Areas with poor walkability predict the likelihood of pediatric traffic fatality. These findings highlight tangible local and state policy changes that could be implemented to decrease the likelihood of traffic-related child fatality rates in specific counties. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11029 2025-09-23T03:56:45+00:00 pediatric trauma MVC national walk index social vulnerability index mortality rate walkability pediatric surgery Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6305 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6305/thumbnail_6305_2023-01-25_18-00-09.jpg Do you use a transanastomotic feeding tube after a Duodenal Atresia repair? Article you should know! by Cecilia Gigena Is postoperative transanastomotic feeding beneficial in neonates with congenital duodenal obstruction? Authors: Martin Treider 1, Anders Hauge Engebretsen 2, Hans Skari 2, Kristin Bjørnland 2 3 Full article: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34910223/ Abstract Purpose: We aimed to evaluate possible positive and negative effects of postoperative use of transanastomotic feeding tube (TAFT) in neonates operated for congenital duodenal obstruction (CDO). Methods: This is a retrospective study reviewing medical records of neonates operated for CDO during 2003-2020 and comparing postoperative feeding outcomes and complications in patients with and without TAFT. Approval from the hospital's data protection officer was obtained. Results: One hundred patients, 59% girls, were included, and 37% received TAFT. Mean birth weight and gestational age were 2628 (675.1) grams and 36.6 (2.4) weeks, respectively. Furthermore, 45% had no other malformations, and 36% had Down syndrome. Patient demographics were similar for TAFT and not-TAFT patients, except that not-TAFT neonates weighed median 335 g less (p = 0.013). The TAFT group got parenteral nutrition 2 days shorter (p < 0.001) and started enteral feeds 1.5 days earlier (p < 0.001) than the not-TAFT group. Fewer neonates with TAFT got a central venous catheter [65 vs 89%, (p = 0.008)]. In the TAFT group, 67% were breast fed at discharge compared to 49% in the not-TAFT group (p = 0.096). Conclusion: Neonates with TAFT had earlier first enteral feed, fewer days with parenteral nutrition and fewer placements of central venous catheters.

These imaging technologies are helping identify and assess parathyroid gland perfusion, with the goal of reducing hypocalcemia and improving long-term outcomes—especially in pediatric patients. Classified as a Black Diamond (early adopter practice), this approach is still gaining traction in pediatric centers, but adult trials are already showing promise. Key Highlights: What is Autofluorescence? A no-injection technique that uses natural gland fluorescence to locate parathyroids during surgery. ICG Angiography: Assessing real-time perfusion of glands to determine viability and reimplantation need. Clinical Impact: Reduced rates of post-op hypocalcemia, improved identification of glands in surgical specimens, and more targeted decision-making. Challenges in Practice: Equipment bulkiness, variable image quality, and limited adoption in lower-volume pediatric centers. While further pediatric data are needed, this episode shows how new technologies may shape the future of thyroid surgery—especially in safeguarding parathyroid function. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10438 2025-04-29T13:39:02+00:00 1 channel#pediatric_surgery autofluorescence ICG angiography thyroid surgery imaging techniques parathyroid gland perfusion Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8558 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8558/thumbnail_10097_2024-05-01_08-37-33.jpg Transcystic Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration for Pediatric Patients with Choledocholithiasis New article you should know by Cecilia Gigena from Journal of Pediatric Surgery "Transcystic Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration for Pediatric Patients with Choledocholithiasis: A multi-center study" Authors: Jessica Rauh, Goeto Dantes, Marshall Wallace, Amelia Collings, Gloria D. Sanin, Gabriel E. Cambronero, Maggie E. Bosley, Aravindh S. Ganapathy, James W. Patterson, Romeo Ignacio, Jennifer Leslie Knod, Bethany Slater, Kylie Callier, Michael H. Livingston, Hanna Alemayehu, Katerina Dukleska, Stefan Scholz, Matthew T. Santore, Irving J. Zamora, Lucas P. Neff Full article: https://gcmd.co/3Jy2LVA Background Patients with choledocholithiasis are often treated with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Upfront LC, intraoperative cholangiogram (IOC), and possible transcystic laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) could potentially avoid the need for ERCP. We hypothesized that upfront LC + IOC ± LCBDE will decrease length of stay (LOS) and the total number of interventions for children with suspected choledocholithiasis. Methods A multicenter, retrospective cohort study was performed on pediatric patients (<18 years) between 2018 and 2022 with suspected choledocholithiasis. Demographic and clinical data were compared for upfront LC + IOC ± LCBDE and possible postoperative ERCP (OR1st) versus preoperative ERCP prior to LC (OR2nd). Complications were defined as postoperative pancreatitis, recurrent choledocholithiasis, bleeding, or abscess. Results Across four centers, 252 children with suspected choledocholithiasis were treated with OR1st (n = 156) or OR2nd (n = 96). There were no differences in age, gender, or body mass index. Of the LCBDE patients (72/156), 86% had definitive intraoperative management with the remaining 14% requiring postoperative ERCP. Complications were fewer and LOS was shorter with OR1st (3/156 vs. 15/96; 2.39 vs 3.84 days, p < 0.05).

The use of computed tomography (CT) imaging in the assessment of FBA has recently emerged and could help obviate unnecessary bronchoscopy in these patients. The aim of this study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy of CT in the diagnosis of pediatric FBA. Methods A systematic literature review was conducted to identify studies reporting the use of CT imaging in suspected pediatric FBA. The search included published articles in Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid EMBASE, PubMed MEDLINE and Web of Science. The search strategy included all articles from inception of the database to January 2021. Manuscripts were reviewed and graded for quality using the QUADAS-2 tool. Subgroup analyses based on the use of virtual bronchoscopy (VB) and sedation was conducted. A meta-analysis evaluating the use of VB in the diagnosis of FBA was also conducted. Results Sixteen manuscripts met all inclusion criteria. In total, 2056 pediatric patients ranging from 0.3 to 15 years underwent CT for suspected FBA. The sensitivity and specificity of CT were 98.8% and 96.6%, respectively. VB was used in 71.4% (1391/1948) of patients while sedation during CT was required in 70.2% (1263/1800) of patients. Radiation dosing ranged from 0.04 to 2 mSv, 0.99–59.1 mGy-cm and 0.03–16.99 mGy. Conclusion CT can accurately diagnose pediatric FBA and can help decrease the rate of unnecessary bronchoscopies with an acceptable dose of radiation. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6971 2023-08-02T18:00:11+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6362 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/6362/thumbnail_6362_2023-02-06_18-00-13.jpg BOB Ped Surg 2023 - Bernadette Jeremiasse, IPSO - Presentation Watch Bernadette Jeremiasse, MD, present her presentation on "Multiplex Organoid-Based 3D Live Imaging Platform to Screen Probes for Fluorescence Guided Surgery." https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6362 2023-02-06T18:00:13+00:00 1 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6954 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6954/thumbnail_6954_2023-07-24_12-00-14.jpg Quick Literature Updates Episode 11 We’re back with eleventh episode of "Quick Literature Updates" the podcast series that delivers the latest updates in pediatric surgery literature in a quick and digestible format.

Soundappan, Aneetha Pasupati, Susan Adams Artículo Completo: https://gcmd.co/4cnWw2V Introducción Se dice que mantener a los niños nada por vía oral hasta que recuperen la función intestinal después de la cirugía de anastomosis intestinal reduce las complicaciones. El ayuno puede extenderse hasta cinco días, con el riesgo de desnutrición y uso de nutrición parenteral. Este estudio tiene como objetivo establecer la eficacia y seguridad de la nutrición enteral temprana en niños sometidos a cierre de estoma intestinal. Metodología Se llevó a cabo un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo de niños de tres meses a 16 años a los que se les cerró un estoma intestinal entre el 1/1/2019 y el 31/12/2021 en dos hospitales pediátricos terciarios. Los niños alimentados con líquidos claros dentro de las 24 h (EEN) se compararon con los que comenzaron a alimentarse más tarde (LEN). El resultado primario fue la duración de la estancia posoperatoria (LOS) y los resultados secundarios incluyeron: tiempo hasta la alimentación; tiempo para defecar; y complicaciones. Resultados De los 129 niños a los que se les realizó un cierre de estoma, 69 cumplieron los criterios de inclusión: 35 (51 %) en el grupo LEN y 34 (49 %) en el grupo EEN. Los niños del grupo EEN tuvieron una LOS significativamente más corta (92,6 h frente a 121,7 h, p = 0,0045). La alimentación temprana también se asoció con una disminución significativa del tiempo para liberar líquidos (p < 0,001) y una ingesta enteral completa (p = 0,007). No hubo diferencias significativas entre grupos en cuanto a las complicaciones.

Stevens, Sarah Verna, Sarah Wegman, Kori Wolcott, Derek Wakeman Full Article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00566-3/abstract Background: Unplanned intubation following children's surgery is associated with increased postoperative mortality. In response to being a National Surgical Quality Improvement Program - Pediatric (NSQIP-P) high outlier for postoperative unplanned intubation, we aimed to reduce postoperative unplanned intubation events by 25% in one year. Methods/Intervention: A multidisciplinary team of stakeholders was assembled in 2018. Most unplanned intubation events occurred in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Based on apparent causes of unplanned intubations identified in case reviews, an extubation readiness checklist and a postoperative pain management guideline emphasizing non-opioid analgesics were implemented for NICU patients in September 2019. Postoperative unplanned intubation events were tracked prospectively and evaluated using quality improvement statistical process control methods. Results: Unplanned intubations in the NICU decreased from 0.27 to 0.07 events per patient in the post-intervention group (September 2019–June 2022, n = 145) compared to the pre-intervention group (January 2016–August 2019, n = 200), representing a 76% reduction. Postoperative opioid administration decreased significantly, while acetaminophen usage increased significantly over time.

Methods: We conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study of patients aged <18 years old who underwent IHR at 21 children's hospitals from 2017 to 2019 with 3 year follow up. Surgeons preferring open hernia repair performed ≥70 % of hernia repairs open (Open surgeons). Surgeons preferring laparoscopic hernia repair performed ≥70 % of hernia repairs laparoscopically (Laparoscopic surgeons). Descriptive statistics and multivariable regression were utilized. Results: Among 207 surgeons, 125 (60.4 %) were Open surgeons, and of those 54 (43.2 %) performed at least 1 laparoscopic IHR. The inguinal hernia recurrence rates for Open surgeons were 0.9 % for open IHR and 3.6 % for laparoscopic IHR, p < 0.001. There were 58 (28.0 %) Laparoscopic surgeons and of those 44 (75.9 %) performed at least 1 open IHR. The inguinal hernia recurrence rates for Laparoscopic surgeons were 1.7 % for laparoscopic IHR and 1.7 % for open IHR, p = 1.000. For open IHR, no significant difference in recurrence rates was observed between Open and Laparoscopic surgeons (0.9 % versus 1.7 %, p = 0.230). For laparoscopic inguinal hernia repairs, Open surgeons had higher recurrence rates than Laparoscopic surgeons with odds ratio of (3.6 % versus 1.7 %, p = 0.019). Conclusions: Open surgeons have higher inguinal hernia recurrence rates when performing laparoscopic IHR. No difference in hernia recurrence rates following open and laparoscopic repair was noted for Laparoscopic surgeons. Pediatric surgeons dividing cases between open and laparoscopic IHR should take caution to maintain adequate proficiency in both. spaces/1/content/11386/file_11386_1_1768508875688.mp4 2026-01-15T20:27:55+00:00 Inguinal hernia repair Laparoscopy Operative volume Pediatric inguinal hernia Lizzy Lee Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11385 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/11385-98a86af81c.jpg A multi-institutional comparison of management techniques for infants with giant omphalocele Alyssa Stetson, Samantha Leonard  Katherine Flynn-O'Brien, Seth Goldstein, Tiffany Wright, Cynthia Downard, Kyle J Van Arendonk, Charles M Leyes, Linda Cherney-Stafford, Karen Speck, Peter C Minneci, Troy A Markel, Shawn D St Peter, Dave Lal, Michael Sobolic, Matthew P Landman, Beth Rymeski; Midwest Pediatric Surgery ConsortiumPurpose: Giant omphaloceles (GO) are uncommon with no consensus on treatment strategy. Placement of a DuoDerm® silo (DDS) is a novel management technique. We sought to identify optimal approach by comparing outcomes of patients who underwent DDS placement, paint and wait (P&W), operative silo placement (OSP), or alternative compression techniques (ACT).Methods: A multi-institutional retrospective review between 7/1/2012-5/31/2023 of patients with GO (fascial defect >5 cm). Patients were identified via ICD codes and chart review. Results: There were 117 children with GO from nine centers. Twelve children (10 %) were managed with DDS, 83 (71 %) with P&W, 11 (9 %) with OSP, and 11 (9 %) with ACT. Patients in the OSP group were more likely to have a torn or ruptured sac (p < 0.001) but there was no difference in number of organs present in the sac (p = 0.22). There was no difference in percentage of patients with fascial closure between groups (p = 0.16). Age at fascial closure was lowest in the OSP group (0.6 months) followed by the DDS group (1.5 months) (p = 0.003). Patients in the DDS group had the highest rate of primary fascial closure (9, 82 %), followed by the P&W (49, 78 %), OSP (4, 40 %), and ACT (2, 20 %) (p < 0.001). Forty-three patients (37 %) experienced a complication, equal between groups (p = 0.71). Conclusions: Half the infants in our cohort did not achieve fascial closure until ≥6 months. While median time to fascial closure was lowest for OSP, patients with DDS placement achieved the highest rate of primary fascial closure. Further research could help optimize patient selection for GO closure strategy. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11385 2026-01-15T04:26:10+00:00 omphalocele duoderm silo JPS Lizzy Lee Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10901 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/10901/thumbnail_10901_1_1756392724272.jpg 2025 Pediatric Surgery Update Course - Updates in Oncology On August 26th, the largest Pediatric Surgery course in the world each year was held, where top hospital experts from around the US will discuss this year’s changes in practices and innovation.

We hypothesized that patients with different gender, ethnicity, and age have different quality of life (QOL) measurements which could improve with minimally invasive treatment (MIT). Methods 131 PD patients underwent MIT (laser epilation ± trephination) from 2019 to 2021. Patients’ demographics were recorded. Before and after MIT, patients received QOL questionnaire consisting of four categories: daily activities, sports participation, school/work attendance, and socializing. Data were analyzed using Student and multivariate t test. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results 101 (51 male, 50 female) patients were included. 30 patients with incomplete data were excluded. 54% of patients were < 18 years old. 47.5% were Hispanic. Median symptom duration prior to presentation was 5.4 (1.3–15) months. Prior to MIT, patients’ ability to perform daily activities, participate in sports, attend school/work, and socialize was moderately or severely impacted in 66%, 57%, 45%, and 23% of respondents, respectively; after MIT, only 7%, 8%, 2%, and 4% were affected (p < 0.01). Recurrence rate was 6%. Pre-MIT, older patients and non-Hispanics reported worse impact on their QOL. Symptom duration or PD recurrence did not correlate with patient’s pre- or post-MIT QOL. Conclusion Patients’ ethnicity and age impacted QOL in PD. All patients’ QOL significantly improved with MIT.

Our study aimed to evaluate risk factors associated with bleeding complications in patients with CDH repaired on ECMO. Methods: A single-institution retrospective review evaluated all patients with CDH who underwent on-ECMO repair between January 2005 and December 2023. A significant bleeding complication post-repair was defined as bleeding necessitating re-operation. The association between preoperative factors and bleeding complications was evaluated. Results: Forty-six patients were included. Bleeding complications developed in 11/46 (24%) patients. Birthweight (2.5 vs. 3.2 kg, p = 0.02), platelet count <100/mm3 (64% vs. 29%, p = 0.04), elevated blood urea nitrogen (BUN; 24.5 vs. 17.5 mg/dL, p = 0.05), and older age at repair (8 vs. 5 days, p = 0.04) were associated with bleeding. In univariate analysis, patients with platelets under 100/mm3 were more likely to develop a bleeding complication (OR = 4.4, p = 0.04). Patients who experienced a significant bleeding event experienced increased ECMO days (12 vs. 7 days, p < 0.01), ventilator days (31 vs. 18 days, p < 0.05), and lower survival to discharge (36% vs. 74%, p = 0.03). Conclusion: Among CDH patients undergoing repair on ECMO, those with lower birth weight, platelet counts under 100/mm3, elevated BUN, and older age at repair had an increased risk of a significant bleeding complication, resulting in more ECMO and ventilator days and higher mortality. Patients undergoing on-ECMO repair should have platelet count transfused to greater than 100/mm3. Patients at high risk for bleeding may benefit from early repair on ECMO. spaces/1/content/10011/b108723cc0f4dcc2eccf4c3e036ac3f7.mp4 2025-03-12T05:53:01+00:00 3 channel#pediatric_surgery Bleeding cdh ecmo Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation Congenital diaphragmatic hernia complications hernia Alex halpern jps Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10981 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/public-assets/defaults/default_thumbnail.jpg Incidence of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Palsy in Thoracic Surgery in Neonates Khaled Al Tabaa ∙ Matthias Claire ∙ Arnaud Bonnard ∙ Souhayl Dahmani ∙ Thierry Van Den Abbeel ∙ Natacha Teissier∙ Emilie BoisObjectivePostoperative vocal cord paralysis (VCP) is a known complication of thoracic surgeries that carry a risk of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury. The primary aims of this study were to evaluate the prevalence of postoperative VCP, identify associated risk factors, and assess the impact on feeding and length of hospital stay in pediatric thoracic surgery.Materials and MethodsWe conducted a prospective, interventional, single-center study from September 2020 to January 2022. Preoperative laryngeal fibroscopy was performed, and children with pre-existing laryngeal immobility were excluded. Postoperative laryngeal fibroscopy was systematically performed 15 days after surgery to assess the incidence of VCP. Data were compared between children with and without VCP to identify risk factors and evaluate the impact on feeding and hospital length of stay.ResultsDuring the study period, 17 children (mean age 3.2 days; mean weight 2628 g) who underwent thoracic surgery at risk of RLN injury were included: 15 for esophageal atresia, 1 for ductus arteriosus ligation, and 1 for aortic arch surgery. Of these, 4 children were excluded because they could not undergo laryngoscopy at day 15. Postoperative fibroscopy was performed in the remaining 13 children, revealing VCP in 5 (38.5%). VCP was always symptomatic, with stridor requiring specific management in 2 patients. Weight and gestational age emerged as significant factors influencing the risk of postoperative VCP, while associated malformations did not impact VCP risk. No major effects on feeding or length of hospital stay were observed.ConclusionVCP is a common complication of thoracic surgery in children, highlighting the importance of its prevention due to potential severe consequences. Further research is needed to refine strategies for preventing VCP and improving outcomes in this patient po spaces/1/content/10981/file_10981_1_1757692594689.mp4 2025-09-12T15:56:34+00:00 1 thoracic surgery VCP vocal cord paralysis pediatric surgery recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis Lizzy Lee postop Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6671 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6671/thumbnail_6671_2023-05-24_18-00-11.jpg Isolated low-grade solid organ injuries in children following blunt abdominal trauma New article you should know by Dr. Cecilia Gigena "Isolated low-grade solid organ injuries in children following blunt abdominal trauma: Is it time to consider discharge from the emergency department?" Authors: Leah Plumblee 1, Regan Williams, Dennis Vane, Jingwen Zhang, Aaron Jensen, Bindi Naik-Mathuria, Lauren Evans, Christian J Streck Full article: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32769952/ Abstract Introduction: Acute intervention (AI) for solid organ injury (SOI) is rare in hemodynamically stable children. Pediatric guidelines recommend admission with follow-up laboratories, even for low-grade injuries. Methods: Data sets from two large multicenter prospective observational studies were used to analyze a cohort of children (age, <17 years) with grade I to III SOI following blunt abdominal trauma. Children with hollow viscus injuries were excluded. Patients were divided into (a) those with or without other major injuries (OMIs) (traumatic brain injury, hemothorax or pneumothorax, pelvic fracture, urgent orthopedic or neurosurgical operations) and (b) with grade I or II versus grade III injuries. Outcomes included AIs (transfusion, angiography, abdominal operation) and disposition (admission unit and length of stay). Results: There were 14,232 children enrolled in the two studies, and 791 patients had a SOI (5.6%). After excluding patients with hollow viscus injuries and higher-grade SOIs, 517 patients with a grade I to III SOI were included, and 262 of these had no OMI. Among patients with no OMI, none of 148 patients with grade I or II SOI underwent AI, while only 3 of 114 patients with grade III injuries underwent AI (3 transfusions/1 angioembolization). All three had hemoperitoneum; two of three had an additional organ with a grade II injury. Among grade I and II SOIs with no OMI, 28 (18.9%) of 148 were admitted to an intensive care unit, 110 (74.3%) of 148 to floor, and 7 (4.7%) of 148 discharged home from emergency department; median len https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6671 2023-05-24T18:00:11+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6619 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/6619/thumbnail_6619_2023-05-04_04-00-09.jpg Novedoso indice para estimar la extensión cefalocaudal del hundimiento esternal en el pectus excavatum: El Índice Titanic Nuevo Articulo que tenes que Concer por Sofía Tachella "Novedoso indice para estimar la extensión cefalocaudal del hundimiento esternal en el pectus excavatum: El Índice Titanic" Bellía Munzon et.al.

Sin embargo, la mayoría caracteriza la severidad en el punto de mayor hundimiento. Presentamos un nuevo índice, el índice Titanic (TI), dirigido a la evaluación de la extensión cefalocaudal de la excavación y su potencial uso clínico.  Materiales and métodos Análisis retrospectivo de una cohorte de pacientes que se sometieron a repación del pectus excavatum minimamente invasiva (MIRPE) entre Julio de 2020 y Abril de 2022. Definimos el TI como el porcentaje de esternón que se encuentra por debajo de la línea costal anterior observado en la tomgrafía computada. Datos demográficos, HI, CI y TI fueron calculados y analizados. También, comparamos índices de severidad en dos grupos de pacientes divididos según el número de implantes introducidos en cada paciente (grupo A: 2 implantes, grupo B: más de dos).  Resultados Setenta y ocho pacientes (92% varones) fueron incluídos, con una edad media de 17.2 ± 4.8 años. La media de TI fue 37%. The mean TI was 37%. Aunque débil, identificamos una correlación significativa entre el TI y el HI y más aún con el CI. Dos implantes fueron introducidos en 37 pacientes (47%), y más de 2 en 41 (53%) pacientes. Comparado con pacientes con dos implantes, el grupo que recibió más de dos eran mayores y presentaban peores índices torácicos. we identified significant correlations between the TI and the HI and, more closely, to the CI.

The purpose of this study is to compare rates of second hernia operation and same side recurrence following open and laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in a large national cohort.Methods: This retrospective analysis utilized the Pediatric Health Information System database to identify children <18 years-old who underwent laparoscopic or open primary inguinal hernia repair from 2017 to 2021. Data were collected through 2022 to allow minimum one year follow-up. Second hernia operation rates, inclusive of same side recurrence and metachronous contralateral hernia, and same side recurrence rates were compared by multivariable mixed effects model controlling for confounders and institutional clustering. Misclassification rates were determined through data validation at four constituent institutions. Sensitivity analyses determined true outcome rates.Results: We identified 53,287 operations (15.6% laparoscopic). Rate of second hernia operation was greater following laparoscopic repair (2.9% vs 2.6%, p = 0.04) with no difference on multivariable analysis (OR 1.14, 95% CI 0.98-1.32). Same side recurrence rate was greater following laparoscopic repair (1.5% vs 0.4%, p < 0.001) which persisted on multivariable analysis (OR 3.72, 95% CI 2.90-4.78). Sensitivity analysis demonstrated true laparoscopic and open repair rates of 14.2% and 85.8%, respectively. True rates of second hernia operation and same side recurrence were identical to those determined by PHIS.Conclusion: Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in children has more than three times the odds of same side hernia recurrence than open repair which is balanced by a reduced rate of seco https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11527 2026-02-17T20:27:31+00:00 Children Hernia repair inguinal hernia Laparoscopic surgery Minimally invasive surgical procedures Pediatrics pediatric surgery some4pedsurg metachronous hernia Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5826 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/5826/thumbnail_5826_2022-09-07_22-00-07.jpg Update Course 2022 - WHO TO SEND HOME FROM THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT - Justin Huntington, Elizabeth Speck, and Mark Wulkan In this session we review with Drs.

There are few data describing outcomes for children undergoing anaesthesia and surgery in Africa. We aimed to get robust epidemiological data to describe patient care and outcomes for children undergoing anaesthesia and surgery in hospitals in Africa. Methods: This study was a 14-day, international, prospective, observational cohort study of children (aged <18 years) undergoing surgery in Africa. We recruited as many hospitals as possible across all levels of care (first, second, and third) providing surgical treatment. Each hospital recruited all eligible children for a 14-day period commencing on the date chosen by each participating hospital within the study recruitment period from Jan 15 to Dec 23, 2022. Data were collected prospectively for consecutive patients on paper case record forms. The primary outcome was in-hospital postoperative complications within 30 days of surgery and the secondary outcome was in-hospital mortality within 30 days after surgery. We also collected hospital-level data describing equipment, facilities, and protocols available. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05061407. Findings: We recruited 8625 children from 249 hospitals in 31 African countries. The mean age was 6·1 (SD 4·9) years, with 5675 (66·0%) of 8600 children being male. Most children (6110 [71·2%] of 8579 patients) were from category 1 of the American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status score undergoing elective surgery (5325 [61·9%] of 8604 patients). Postoperative complications occurred in 1532 (18·0%) of 8515 children, predominated by infections (971 [11·4%] of 8538 children) https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8803 2024-07-05T06:22:22+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8831 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8831/thumbnail_10382_2024-07-10_13-55-46.jpg Cessation of Antibiotics for Complicated Appendicitis at Discharge Does Not Increase Risk of Post-operative Infection New article you should know from JPS by Dr. Cecilia Gigena "Cessation of Antibiotics for Complicated Appendicitis at Discharge Does Not Increase Risk of Post-operative Infection" Authors: Katie W.

Short Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00560-2/abstract Purpose The utilization of home antibiotic therapy following surgery for complicated pediatric appendicitis is highly variable. In 2019, we stopped home antibiotic therapy in this cohort at our institution. We sought to evaluate our outcomes following this protocol change. Methods We queried our institutional NSQIP Pediatrics data for all children undergoing appendectomy for complicated appendicitis between January 2015 and May 2022. We identified two cohorts: those discharged with home antibiotics (1/1/15-4/30/19) and those discharged with no home antibiotics (5/1/19-4/30/22). Both groups were treated with response based parenteral antibiotics while hospitalized and discharged when clinically well. Our primary outcome was postoperative deep organ space infection requiring intervention (drainage, aspiration, reoperation, or antibiotics). Secondary outcomes included length of stay, superficial site infection, Clostridium difficile colitis, ER visits, post-operative CT imaging, and readmission. Results There were 185 patients in the home antibiotic group (83% discharged with antibiotics) and 121 patients in the no home antibiotic group (8.3% discharged with antibiotics). There were no significant differences in deep organ space infection requiring intervention (7% vs. 7.4%, p = 1.0). Our length of stay was not different (4.5 days vs. 3.95 days, p = 0.32), nor were other secondary outcomes or patient characteristics. All patients had documented follow-up. Conclusions We did not identify differences in deep organ space infections, length of stay or other events after eliminating home antib spaces/1/content/8831/file_10382_2024-07-10_13-55-46.mp4 2024-07-10T13:55:46+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8911 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8911/thumbnail_10463_2024-07-23_07-59-26.jpg Clinical Characteristics and Prognosis of Biliary Atresia with Low Serum Matrix Metalloproteinase-7 Levels New Article you should know by Dr. Cecilia Gigena from Journal of Pediatric Surgery. "Clinical Characteristics and Prognosis of Biliary Atresia with Low Serum Matrix Metalloproteinase-7 Levels" Authors: Jingying Jiang, Yifan Yang, Xue Ren, Chen Xu, Chunjing Ye, Jin Zhou, Manning Qian, Shuxin Wang, Gong Chen, Rui Dong, Shan Zheng Full article: https://gcmd.co/3zOQlqx Purpose Serum matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) levels can precisely differentiate biliary atresia (BA) from non-BA cholestasis. However, serum MMP-7 levels of some BA patients were within normal range or slightly elevated. This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of biliary atresia with low serum MMP-7 levels. Method This is a retrospective cohort study. Cases of BA from July 2020 to December 2022 were consecutively enrolled. They were divided into low-MMP-7 group (MMP-7 ≤ 25 ng/ml) and high-MMP-7 group (MMP-7 > 25 ng/ml) according to serum MMP-7 levels preoperatively. The perioperative clinical characteristics, the 3-month and 6-month jaundice clearance rate post-Kasai procedure, and the native liver survival were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 329 cases were included in this study, 40 of which were divided into the low-MMP-7 group. Preoperative GGT and direct bilirubin levels in the low-MMP-7 group were significantly lower than those in the high-MMP-7 group (258.6 U/L, interquartile range [IQR]: 160.4411.6 vs. 406.8 IU/L, IQR: 215,655.0, P = 0.0076; 103.8 μmol/L, IQR: 79.0,121.4 vs. 115.3 μmol/L, IQR: 94,138.8, P = 0.0071), while the gender, the day at surgery and preoperative ALT, AST, TBA, total bilirubin levels showed no significant differences (P > 0.05).

Soundappan, Aneetha Pasupati, Susan Adams Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00695-4/fulltext Introduction Keeping children nil by mouth until return of bowel function after intestinal anastomosis surgery is said to reduce complications. Fasting may extend up to five days, risking malnourishment and usage of parenteral nutrition. This study aims to establish the efficacy and safety of early enteral nutrition in children undergoing intestinal stoma closure. Methodology A retrospective cohort study of children aged three months to 16 years who underwent an intestinal stoma closure between 1/1/2019 and 31/12/2021 at two tertiary paediatric hospitals was undertaken. Children fed clear fluids within 24 h (EEN) were compared to those commencing feeds later (LEN). The primary outcome was length of post-operative stay (LOS) and secondary outcomes included: time to feeds; time to stool; and complications. Results Of the 129 children that underwent a stoma closure, 69 met inclusion criteria: 35 (51 %) in the LEN group and 34 (49 %) in the EEN group. Children in the EEN group had a significantly shorter LOS (92.6 h vs 121.7 h, p = 0.0045). Early feeding was also associated with a significantly decreased time to free fluids (p < 0.001) and full enteral intake (p = 0.007). There was no significant intergroup difference in complications. Conclusion Commencing feeding within 24 h of stoma closure is efficacious and safe, with clear reductions in LOS, time to full feeds and time to stool, and no increase in complications. Further research is required to extrapolate these findings to other populations. spaces/1/content/8759/file_10308_2024-06-20_11-51-23.mp4 2024-06-20T11:51:23+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2298 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/2298/thumbnail_2298_2020-03-03_22-06-41.jpg Venous Vexation: A Central Line Conundrum At the 7th Annual Pediatric Surgery Update Course, Dr. Alexander Gibbons discusses a central line conundrum involving Venous Vexation https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2298 2020-03-03T22:06:41+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2230 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/2230/thumbnail_3156_2020-02-24_19-58-22.jpg Rigid Bronchoscopy for Diagnosis and Treatment of Proximal Pouch Fistula in...

Therefore, we reviewed a combined dataset assessing outcomes of pediatric patients undergoing CHLT. Methods: Patients undergoing Fontan CHLT between 2010 and 2024 at pediatric hospitals were queried from a merged dataset of the Pediatric Health Information System and United Network for Organ Sharing. Matching (2:1) was completed with Fontan heart-only transplant recipients. Results: A total of 34 patients underwent Fontan CHLT at 9 pediatric hospitals between 2010 and 2024, 82% (n = 28) after 2019. Almost one-half (47%; n = 16) were age ≤18 years at the time of CHLT, with a median age of 19 years (interquartile range, 15-24 years). More than two-thirds (68%) had hypoplastic left heart syndrome, 38% had double-inlet left ventricle, 26% had double-outlet right ventricle, and 18% had tricuspid atresia. One-third of the patients (n = 11) had a Model for End-Stage Liver Disease/Pediatric End-Stage Liver Disease score of ≤10 at CHLT, with 91% hospital survival, and those with a score >10 had 82% survival. One-year survival was 85% overall, 94% for those age >18 years, and 75% for those age ≤18 years. All deaths occurred before hospital discharge and within 6 months of transplantation, with a mean follow-up of 4 years. Three-year survival was similar in the CHLT and heart transplant -only (HT) groups (85% vs 84%; P = .96, log-rank test). Conclusions: This multi-institutional analysis demonstrates the rapidly increasing numbers of Fontan palliated patients successfully undergoing CHLT in pediatric hospitals.

Female patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation for childhood cancer may experience adverse effects such as gonadotoxicity-related ovarian insufficiency. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) is well studied in adults, but has only recently started to be explored in an effort to preserve fertility in young patients with childhood cancer. This systematic review aims to critically highlight contemporary outcomes of cryopreservation in female pediatric cancer patients. Methods: A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases to identify English-language full text articles and abstracts published between 2004 and 2022 describing cryopreservation among female children (0–21 years old) with cancer. Abstracts and full-text articles were screened for inclusion. Subsequently, data from eligible studies was extracted and analyzed. Descriptive statistics were utilized to estimate overall outcomes of cryopreservation. Results: Of 104 abstracts and 34 full-text articles, 12 studies were included. Data was collected from 7 world countries and involved some 612 pediatric and adolescent patients with malignant disease. Most common cancers included hematological malignant disease (81%), CNS nervous system malignant tumors (56%), and sarcomas (39%). Of the 6 studies with full reporting, OTC was undertaken in 501 patients, and 5.9% (30/501) of these patients underwent ovarian tissue transplantation (OTT). After OTT, 27 patients desired pregnancy and 33% (9/27) became pregnant. Six of these 9 patients (67%) had live births. Conclusions: Preliminary analysis showed that OTC has been successfully performed but not yet studied thoroughly in pediatric cancer patients in a longitudinal manner.

Cecilia Gigena "Los catéteres centrales de inserción periférica pueden ser una alternativa a los catéteres venosos centrales tunelizados en quimioterapia para pacientes pediátricos hematológicos y oncológicos" Autores: Yuko Kamata, Yuki Mizuno, Kentaro Okamoto, Shota Okamoto, Yoshifumi Ito, Aya Nishigata Artículo completo: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00383-023-05545-4 Objetivo Los catéteres venosos centrales tunelizados (TCV) se utilizan comúnmente para la quimioterapia pediátrica. Recientemente, en su lugar se han utilizado catéteres centrales de inserción periférica (CCIP). Aunque el PICC tiene las ventajas de una inserción más sencilla y menos complicaciones graves, hay poca información sobre la eficacia del PICC en comparación con la TCV en la quimioterapia pediátrica. Métodos Se incluyeron en el estudio pacientes menores de 18 años con neoplasia maligna primaria que recibieron quimioterapia con PICC o TCV en nuestra institución desde diciembre de 2007 hasta agosto de 2022. Comparamos retrospectivamente PICC y TCV utilizando registros médicos. Resultados Durante el período de observación, se insertaron 133 catéteres (73 PICC y 60 TCV). La mediana del tiempo de permanencia fue de 99 días para los PICC y de 182 días para los TCV, siendo los TCV significativamente más largos (p < 0,001). No hubo diferencias significativas en la incidencia de complicaciones, como infecciones, trombosis, obstrucción o accidentes mecánicos. Al comparar los pacientes tratados con PICC (grupo PICC) versus aquellos con TCV (grupo TCV), el tiempo desde el diagnóstico hasta la inserción fue significativamente más corto en el grupo PICC (p < 0,001). En el grupo PICC, ninguno de los pacientes requirió anestesia general y la quimioterapia se completó con PICC únicamente. Conclusión PICC puede ser una alternativa a TCV en quimioterapia pediátrica. spaces/14/content/7780/file_9295_2023-12-13_16-00-09.mp4 2023-12-13T16:00:09+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2242 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/2242/thumbnail_3168_2020-02-24_19-58-27.jpg Thoracoscopic Upper Lobectomies for Symptomatic Congenital Pulmonary Airway...

In this video we’ll discuss the way to apply ML in healthcare with some examples. Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell! Hosts: Em Tombash, MD Machine learning in healthcare allows us to predict a future where data, analysis, and innovation work together to help countless patients without them ever realizing it. One of the biggest uses of machine learning in healthcare is the identification and diagnosis of diseases which are otherwise considered hard-to-diagnose. This can include anything from cancers which are tough to catch during the initial stages, to other genetic diseases. IBM Watson Genomics is a good example for showing us how integrating cognitive computing with genome-based tumor sequencing can help in making a fast diagnosis. ** https://www.ibm.com/watson-health There is a technology called Computer Vision which both machine learning and deep learning are responsible for. This has found acceptance in the InnerEye initiative developed by Microsoft which works on image diagnostic tools for image analysis. So, in the future… Do you think machine learning and AI can eliminate radiologists? ** https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/medical-image-analysis/ Another primary clinical application of machine learning lies in the early-stage drug discovery process. Project Hanover developed by Microsoft and it uses ML-based technologies for multiple initiatives including developing AI-based technology for cancer treatment and personalizing drug combinations for AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia). ** https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/project-hanover/ We mentioned personalized medicine and its importance for better patient care in our previous videos. We need to remember that personalized treatments are not only more effective by pairing individual health with predictive analytics but are also helpful for further research and better disease assessment.

Emerging evidence suggests that small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) contribute to metabolic improvements post VSG, such as improved fatty liver disease or adipose tissue function; however, it is unclear how different organ-specific sEVs interact with various metabolic parameters. The objective of this study is to establish the role of organ-specific sEVs in the metabolic improvements post VSG. Methods: Demographic and anthropometric data, metabolic parameters, and sEV samples were collected pre VSG and 3-6 months post VSG in youth with obesity. sEV RNA was sequenced for bioinformatics analyses. Results: A significant reduction of the liver-enriched mRNA cargo in sEVs was observed post VSG, whereas adipose-enriched mRNA cargo showed no such reduction. Liver-enriched mRNA cargo correlated with BMI, leptin, and resistin 6 months post VSG. Analysis of delta values (post minus pre surgery) revealed that adipose-enriched mRNA cargo correlated with markers of liver damage, whereas liver-derived mRNA cargo correlated with branched-chain amino acids. Conclusions: Following VSG, significant changes occur in the liver-enriched mRNA cargo of sEVs. Liver-derived sEVs appear to influence adipose metabolism, whereas adipose-derived sEVs are linked with liver function, suggesting dynamic intertissue cross talk that shapes systemic metabolic outcomes. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11264 2025-11-18T21:31:31+00:00 BMI BCAA leptin pedsurg sEVs VSG gastrectomy Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1987 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1987/thumbnail_2906_2019-12-10_16-00-11.jpg Minimally Invasive Laryngoscopically Assisted Management of an Enlarging...

LautzBackgroundRelapse occurs in 30–40 % of patients with localized Ewing sarcoma (EWS). Our objective was to describe the current management and outcomes of patients with initially localized EWS who experience first pulmonary relapse.MethodsThis multi-center retrospective cohort study included patients ≤22 years old with initially localized EWS treated from 2007 to 2020 at 19 Pediatric Surgical Oncology Research Collaborative institutions, who developed pulmonary relapse. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed.ResultsThirty-three patients with initially localized EWS developed pulmonary relapse at a median age of 17 (IQR 14; 20) years. Eleven (33 %) patients also had extra-pulmonary metastases (EPM) at relapse. Among the 22 (67 %) patients with pulmonary-only relapse, 10 (45 %) had solitary pulmonary nodules. Pulmonary metastasectomy was performed in 8/10 (80 %) patients with solitary pulmonary-only metastases, 5/12 (42 %) patients with multiple pulmonary-only metastases, and 2/11 (18 %) patients who also had EPM. Whole lung irradiation was administered in 7/10 (70 %) with solitary pulmonary-only metastases, 7/12 (58 %) with multiple pulmonary-only metastases, and 2/11 (18 %) with EPM. Rates of further pulmonary relapse/progression were similar between groups (p = 0.97). In Kaplan-Meier analysis, 3-year overall survival was 73 % with solitary pulmonary-only metastases, 40 % with multiple pulmonary-only metastases, and 23 % with EPM (p = 0.097).ConclusionsWhile survival for patients with relapsed EWS is poor, the subset of patients with solitary relapse confined to the lung are often good candidates for https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11335 2025-12-22T16:26:10+00:00 ewing sarcoma pediatric surgery pedsurg some4pedsurg EWS pulmonary pulmonary metastases EPM solitary pulmonary-only metastases extra-pulmonary metastases Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8705 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8705/thumbnail_10252_2024-06-05_11-04-06.jpg Update Course Rewind: Who to Send Home from the OR: Gastrostomy 2023 We are back with another Update Course Rewind video from the Update course in Pediatric Surgery 2023.

The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of and risk factors for postoperative fever in oncology patients, evaluate incidence of true infection, and determine the utility of fever workup.MethodsSingle institution retrospective chart review (2018–2023) identified postoperative oncology patients who developed postoperative fever (≥38.0 °C) on postoperative days 0, 1, or 2 following solid tumor resection. Collected variables included preoperative chemotherapy, presence of central line, operation type, bowel resection, operative length, wound class, intraoperative hypothermia (180 mg/dL), preoperative neutrophil count, and antibiotic administration. Fever workup included urinalysis, urine culture, blood culture, and chest x-ray. Fever predictors were analyzed using a generalized linear mixed model.ResultsCohort included 222 patients, aged 0.01–40.35 years (median 5.27, SD = 8.32). Ninety-four patients (42 %) developed early postoperative fever. Factors predictive of developing fever included intraoperative transfusion (p = 0.032), postoperative transfusion (p = 0.032), foley catheter (p < 0.001), neutropenia (p = 0.001), and sarcoma histology (p = 0.006). Of those who developed fever, 36 % (34/94) were treated with empiric antibiotics and 73.4 % (69/94) underwent febrile workup (average cost $455). Only 2.8 % (2/94) of febrile patients had an infectious etiology requiring treatment. Both had hemodynamic instability and positive blood cultures.ConclusionsPostoperative fever is common in pediatric cancer patients. Infectious etiology is rare, empiric treatment is common, and workup is costly. Fever alone may not necessitate a workup within the first 2 postoperative days following solid tumor resection.

Learn about its diagnosis, clinical features, and the comprehensive care required for patients with this condition. Key Highlights: What is CHARGE Syndrome? The acronym stands for coloboma, heart defects, atresia of the choanae, retardation of growth and development, genital/urinary anomalies, and ear malformations. Causes and Diagnosis: CHARGE is typically caused by a CHD7 mutation on chromosome 8 but can also be diagnosed clinically with specific major and minor criteria. Multisystem Impact: The syndrome’s highly variable expression means it can affect almost every organ system, requiring coordinated care. Care through an Aerodigestive Center: The Aerodigestive Center at Cincinnati Children’s ensures comprehensive management of airway, feeding, and developmental challenges. Learn how Cincinnati Children’s provides expert care for patients with CHARGE syndrome, helping them overcome complex challenges and improve quality of life.

Although each approach has well-described post-operative complications, quality-of-life outcomes have not been described following the two interventions. Long-term pediatric survivors of hepatoblastoma who underwent conventional liver resection or liver transplantation at a single institution from January 2000-December 2013 were recruited to complete quality-of-life surveys. Survey responses for the Pediatric Quality of Life Generic Core 4.0 (PedsQL, n = 30 patient and n = 31 parent surveys) and Pediatric Quality of Life Cancer Module 3.0 (PedsQL-Cancer, n = 29 patient and n = 31 parent surveys) were collected from patients and parents. The mean total patient-reported PedsQL score was 73.7, and the parent-reported score was 73.9. There were no significant differences in scores on the PedsQL between patients who underwent resection compared to those who underwent transplantation (p > 0.05 for all comparisons). On the PedsQL-Cancer module, procedural anxiety scores were significantly lower for patients who underwent resection as compared to transplant (M = 33.47 points less, CI [-60.41, -6.53], p-value 0.017). This cross-sectional study demonstrates that quality of life outcomes are overall similar among patients receiving transplants and resections. Patients who received a resection reported worse procedural anxiety. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11423 2026-01-27T20:43:30+00:00 hepatoblastoma orthotopic liver transplantation quality-of-life liver resection liver transplantation PedsQL cancer resection Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8114 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8114/thumbnail_9647_2024-03-27_11-58-27.jpg QUAD #6 Slide Tracheoplasty for TEF, Otolaryngology Approach with Dr. Mike Rutter Cincinnati Children's hosted the QUAD conference in October 2022 which was a combination of four conferences: The international organization for is Esophageal atresia, the Aerodigestive Society Conference, the Cincinnati Children's Airway course and the Cincinnati Children's pediatric dysphagia series.

This study aimed to elucidate the influence of socioeconomic status (SES) and race on survival in Wilms tumor (WT), neuroblastoma (NB), and hepatoblastoma (HB).Methods: National Cancer Database was queried from 2004 to 2020 for pediatric patients (aged 0-18) with WT, NB, and HB. A SES composite score was created by combining quartiles for median household income and percent no high school degree (with higher scores reflecting greater disadvantage). Kaplan-Meier analyses and Cox regressions were performed to determine influencers on survival.Results: This study included 5218 patients with WT, 5851 with NB, and 1311 with HB. The distribution of race for WT, NB, and HB was 59 %, 65 %, and 55 % White non-Hispanic, and 18 %, 11 %, and 11 % Black non-Hispanic patients, respectively. Kaplan-Meier analyses revealed disparate outcomes with higher SES scores having worse survival for WT (p = 0.002) and NB (p = 0.011). In multivariable analysis of children with WT: age, higher SES score, comorbidities, tumor size, and bilateral and metastatic disease were associated with worse survival. For NB: age, urbanicity, higher SES score, Black non-Hispanic race/ethnicity, tumor size, metastatic disease, and chemotherapy were associated with worse survival. For HB: age, comorbidities, and metastatic disease were associated with worse survival.Conclusion: After controlling for patient and tumor characteristics, there are significant associations between SDOH and worse survival for patients with WT and NB. Identification of social risk factors is critical for closing equity gaps and improving outcomes for children with solid tumors. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11371 2026-01-09T14:00:20+00:00 Hepatoblastoma NCDB Neuroblastoma Racial disparities Social determinants of health Socioeconomic factors Wilms tumor pediatric surgery some4pedsurg pedsurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5387 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/5387/thumbnail_6635_2022-05-12_12-00-25.jpg Thymic Sling The steps for a Thymic Sling procedure are difficult to understand and sometimes more difficult to see.

The median age at diagnosis was 2.5 years (range, 0.4-15.7 years) with a mean follow-up of 22.3 years (±10.4 years) for WT. The median age at diagnosis for patients with NB was 0.9 years (range, 0.1-8.6 months); mean follow-up of 21.7 years (±7.9 years). Twelve patients with WT (14.0%) had at least 1 repeat laparotomy, 11.1% for bowel obstruction, at a median of 3 months from initial surgery. Twelve patients (14.0%) with NB required laparotomy and 8.1% for bowel obstruction, at a median of 12 years after initial surgery. The incidence of hypertension in patients with WT who had undergone nephrectomy was not outside of population norms. Patients who underwent thoracotomy for a NB have a higher incidence of scoliosis and Horner syndrome.Conclusions: Small bowel obstruction requiring laparotomy is significantly higher than the literature norms for both tumor patient populations and typically occurs in the early postoperative period for patients with WT and remotely in patients with NB. The long-term surgical complications of patients who underwent resection for NB and WT clearly merit follow-up and patient education within multidisciplinary long-term survivorship clinics. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11581 2026-02-27T19:14:04+00:00 1 Wilms tumor childhood cancer survivor laparotomy neuroblastoma surgery survivorship pediatric surgery some4pedsurg pediatric surgeons nephrectomy Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/639 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/639/thumbnail_726_2018-11-10_00-05-17.jpg Abdominal Wall Defects Dr. Jacob Langer discusses various abdominal wall defects through case presentation.Topics of discussion include atresia, gastroschisis, fascial defects, staged closure by silo, and ruptured omphalocele.  https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/97d6ca2c-4906-4974-8fb8-af252899f70e/AppleHLS1/09f689d30db096ed623d5a63e13da506.m3u8 2018-11-10T00:05:17+00:00 10 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7964 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7964/thumbnail_9494_2024-02-07_16-00-13.jpg Janey Pratt, MD and David Lanning, MD - 2024 Pediatric Bariatric Surgery Update Course Janey Pratt and David Lanning, MD presents on “Alternative and Revisional Procedures" at the 2024 Pediatric Bariatric Surgery Update Course. spaces/17/content/7964/file_9494_2024-02-07_16-00-13.mp4 2024-02-07T16:00:13+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11389 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/11389-d4cd60417f.jpg Multifocal Insulinoma as the Unique Presenting Feature of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1 in an Adolescent Alison Murray, Sonia Priscila Rodas Marquez, Mansa Krishnamurthy, Oscar Lopez-Nunez, Juan P Gurria, Andrew T Trout, Susan Almazan, Krishnamallika Mutyala, Gabriella Grisotti, Amy Shah, Jonathan HowellIntroduction: Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder defined by the presence of two of the following endocrinopathies: primary hyperparathyroidism, anterior pituitary tumors, and duodenopancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). NETs, which can secrete hormones including insulin, gastrin, and glucagon, among others, are common in patients with MEN1 and are a major cause of morbidity and premature death. NETs are more common later in life, with very few cases described in children. Here, we describe a unique case of an adolescent with multifocal pancreatic NETs as the single presenting feature of MEN1.Case presentation: A 13-year-old healthy male presented with severe weakness, altered mental status, and syncope in the setting of a venous blood glucose (BG) of 36 mg/dL. Workup showed an elevated insulin level (14 μIU/mL) when BG was 39 mg/dL with positive response to glucagon, concerning for hyperinsulinism. Diazoxide and chlorothiazide were started but not well tolerated secondary to emesis. Three suspected NETs were identified by magnetic resonance imaging and 68-Ga DOTATATE PET-CT imaging, including the largest, a 2.1 cm mass in the pancreatic head. A fourth mass in the pancreatic tail was identified via intraoperative ultrasound. All lesions were successfully enucleated and excised, and glucose levels normalized off diazoxide by post-op day 2. While the primary lesion stained for insulin and somatostatin by immunofluorescence (IF), consistent with his clinical presentation, the additional tumors expressed glucagon, somatostatin, pancreatic polypeptide, and chromogranin A but were negative for insulin. Genetic testing confirmed a pathogenic heterozygous mutation in MEN1 (c.969C>A, p.Tyr323). He had no other signs of MEN-as https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11389 2026-01-16T20:49:35+00:00 pediatric surgery some4pedsurg Endocrine tumor Hyperinsulinism Hypoglycemia Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 de novo mutation MEN1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7961 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7961/thumbnail_9491_2024-02-07_16-00-12.jpg Guillermo Ares, MD and Mark Wulkan, MD - 2024 Pediatric Bariatric Surgery Update Course Guillermo Ares, MD and Mark Wulkan, MD presents on “Robotics – Pros and Cons” at the 2024 Pediatric Bariatric Surgery Update Course. spaces/17/content/7961/file_9491_2024-02-07_16-00-12.mp4 2024-02-07T16:00:12+00:00 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11390 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/11390-4da5e984b1.jpg Patient-reported outcomes of Children with an Anorectal Malformation Richard J Wood, Shruthi Srinivas, Misel Trajanovska, Brennan J Collis, Reuben Lim, Molly Fuchs, Daniel Dajusta, Chris Westgarth-Taylor, Ihab Halaweish, Alessandra A Gasior, Marc A Levitt, John M Hutson, Sebastian K KingObjective: We aimed to study the impact of anorectal malformation (ARM) type and sacral ratio on continence outcomes in children. We secondarily aimed to compare continence outcomes by age group and determine quality of life (QoL) with different bowel regimens.Summary background data: Children with ARM experience dysfunctional stooling into adulthood. Little is known about how ARM type, sacral ratio, age, and bowel regimen affect continence and QoL.Methods: We administered five validated survey measures on stooling habits and QoL to children aged 2-19 with ARM at two tertiary hospitals. Sacral ratio as a determinant of sacral hypodevelopment was defined as normal (≥0.7), moderate (0.4-0.0.69), or severe (≤0.39). Children not on an enema program were compared to those on an enema program to identify factors associated with achieving voluntary bowel movements defined as continence. All children were compared to identify factors associated with QoL.Results: Of 910 patients, half (52.8%) had mild sacral hypodevelopment. In patients not receiving enemas managed solely at study hospitals, most were continent (69.2%). There were no differences in continence demonstrated by sacral ratio; 79.4% of those who were continent had normal/moderate sacral hypodevelopment and mild ARM.Continence improved with age (50% ≤6 y old, 69.8% 6-12 y old, 82.1% >12 y old; P<0.001). Those on enemas and soiling had a QoL 19.6 points lower than those soiling on laxatives, and 20.7 points lower than those who were clean on enemas or continent with voluntary bowel movements without the need for enemas.Conclusions: In patients on laxatives the type of malformation, but not sacral ratio, is associated with continence in patients with ARM.

Fraser, Rebecca M. Rentea, Pablo Aguayo, David Juang, Jason D. Fraser, Charles L. Snyder, Richard J. Hendrickson, Tolulope A. Oyetunji, Shawn D. St. Peter Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00075-1/fulltext Background The Midwest Pediatric Surgery Consortium (MWPSC) suggested a simple aspiration of primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) protocol, failing which, Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) should be considered. We describe our outcomes using this suggested protocol. Methods A single institution retrospective analysis was conducted on patients between 12 and 18 years who were diagnosed with PSP from 2016 to 2021. Initial management involved aspiration alone with a ≤12 F percutaneous thoracostomy tube followed by clamping of the tube and chest radiograph at 6 h. Success was defined as ≤2 cm distance between chest wall and lung at the apex and no air leak when the clamp was released. VATS followed if aspiration failed. Results Fifty-nine patients were included. Median age was 16.8 years (IQR 15.9, 17.3). Aspiration was successful in 33% (20), while 66% (39) required VATS. The median LOS with successful aspiration was 20.4 h (IQR 16.8, 34.8), while median LOS after VATS was 3.1 days (IQR 2.6, 4). In comparison, in the MWPSC study, the mean LOS for those managed with a chest tube after failed aspiration was 6.0 days (±5.5). Recurrence after successful aspiration was 45% (n = 9), while recurrence after VATS was 25% (n = 10). Median time to recurrence after successful aspiration was sooner than that of the VATS group [16.6 days (IQR 5.4, 19.2) vs. 389.5 days (IQR 94.1, 907.0) p = 0.01]. Conclusion Simple aspiration is safe and effective initial management for children with PSP, although most will require VATS.

Mack, David H. Rothstein,Courtney L. Devin, Emily Sagalow, Allison F. Linden, Matthew Boelig,Lindsey Asti, Loren Berman Introduction: Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is gaining traction as a first-line approach to repair congenital anomalies. This study aims to evaluate outcomes for neonates undergoing open versus MIS repairs for esophageal atresia/tracheoesophageal fistula (EA/TEF). Methods: In this retrospective study, neonates undergoing EA/TEF repair from 2013 to 2020 were identified using the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program-Pediatric database. Proportions of operative approach (open vs. MIS) over time were analyzed. A propensity score-matched analysis using preoperative characteristics was performed and outcomes were compared including composite morbidity and reintervention rates (overall, major [thoracoscopy, thoracotomy], and minor [chest/feeding tube placement, endoscopy]) between operative approaches. Pearson's chi-square or Fisher's exact tests were used as appropriate. Results: We identified 1738 neonates who underwent EA/TEF repair. MIS utilization increased over time. Pre-match, neonates undergoing open repair were more likely to be premature, lower weight, ventilator dependent, and have cardiac risk factors with higher severity. Post-match, the groups were similar and included 340 neonates per group. MIS repair was associated with longer median operative time (209 vs.174 min, p <0.001) and increased overall post-operative intervention rates (7.6% vs. 2.9%, p ¼0.01). There were no differences in composite morbidity (24.4% vs. 25.0%, p ¼0.86) outside of reintervention. Conclusion: MIS approach for neonates with EA/TEF appears to be associated with a higher rate of reinterventions. Further studies evaluating MIS approaches for the repair of EA/TEF are needed to better define short- and long-term outcomes. spaces/1/content/9756/file_11321_2025-02-05_06-49-41.mp4 2025-02-05T06:49:41+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8097 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/8097/thumbnail_9630_2024-03-20_18-48-31.jpg La obstrucción pediátrica del intestino delgado por adherencias se asocia con una carga económica sustancial y una alta frecuencia de complicaciones posoperatorias Nuevo artículo que tienes que conocer del JPS por Cecilia Gigena "La obstrucción pediátrica del intestino delgado por adherencias se asocia con una carga económica sustancial y una alta frecuencia de complicaciones posoperatorias" Autores: Cecilia Arana Håkanson, Fanny Fredriksson, Helene Engstrand Lilja Articulo completo: https://gcmd.co/3TFasz1 Introducción Las adherencias intraabdominales pueden provocar una obstrucción adhesiva del intestino delgado (ASBO). La incidencia de ASBO es mayor en cirugía pediátrica que en cirugía de adultos. Sin embargo, falta conocer las complicaciones relacionadas con la ASBO, carga económica y pautas de manejo claras en el tratamiento de la ASBO. Los objetivos de este estudio fueron investigar los diagnósticos, tratamientos, complicaciones y costos subyacentes en la ASBO pediátrica. Método Un estudio observacional retrospectivo en niños de 0 a 15 años hospitalizados por ASBO durante 2000-2020. Los datos se extrajeron de las historias clínicas. Las complicaciones se clasificaron según la Clasificación de complicaciones quirúrgicas de Clavien Dindo. Las estadísticas descriptivas se presentaron como mediana, variables continuas y variables categóricas resumidas con frecuencias. El tiempo hasta ASBO se presentó como una estimación de Kaplan-Meier. Resultados En total se incluyeron 101 pacientes con 137 episodios de ASBO, de los cuales el 58,4% fueron sometidos a una primera cirugía (índice) durante el período neonatal. La mediana de seguimiento fue de 11,3 (0,6-19) años y la mediana de tiempo hasta la primera ASBO fue de 3,76 meses (IC 95%: 2,23-12,02). Los diagnósticos más frecuentes en la cirugía inicial fueron enterocolitis necrotizante, obstrucción duodenal y ASBO primaria. En el 86,6% de los pacientes, la primera ASBO no se resolvió con tratamiento conservador y fue necesaria una laparotomía. Se encontraron complicaciones postoperatorias en el 52%. El coste medio de un episodio de ASBO aguda fue de 36.236 dó spaces/14/content/8097/file_9630_2024-03-20_18-48-31.mp4 2024-03-20T18:48:31+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1150 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1150/thumbnail_1293_2019-02-05_00-05-05.jpg Discharge after Reduction of Intussusception Is Safe and Effective Do you routinely admit patients after radiologic reduction of intussusception in order to observe for recurrence?  A new study out of Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City suggests that you don't have to!Check out this article by Joseph Sujka, Shawn St. Peter, and colleagues, where they analyze the impact of a new intussusception protocol.  Let us know your thoughts below!http://ow.ly/Gr7f30nzEdn Video edited by Alexander Gibbons at Akron Children's Hospital https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1150 2019-02-05T00:05:05+00:00 16 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/346 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/346/thumbnail_375_2018-09-16_15-21-20.jpg Isotonic maintenance fluid: Practice Gap discussion at Update Course 2018 At the 6th Annual Pediatric Surgery Update Course, Drs Charles Snyder, Craig Lillehei and David Powell discuss the top ten practice gaps of 2018.

Acid gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is considered to be a factor in stricture formation and acid suppression medication is recommended post-operatively in consensus guidance. We aimed to investigate whether patients who were treated prophylactically with acid suppression medication had a reduced incidence of strictures compared to those who did not receive it. Methods A systematic review of studies was performed, searching multiple databases without language or date restrictions. Multiple reviewers independently assessed study eligibility and literature quality. The primary outcome was anastomotic stricture formation, with secondary outcomes of GORD, anastomotic leak, and oesophagitis. Meta-analysis was performed using a random effects model, and the results were expressed as an odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results No randomised studies on the topic were identified. Twelve observational studies were included in the analysis with ten reporting the primary outcome. The quality assessment showed a high risk of bias in several papers, predominantly due to non-objective methods of assessment of oesophageal stricture and the non-prospective, non-randomised nature of the studies. Overall, 1395 patients were evaluated, of which 753 received acid suppression medication. Meta-analysis revealed a trend towards increased odds of anastomotic strictures in infants receiving prophylactic medication, but this was not statistically significant (OR 1.33; 95% CI 0.92, 1 https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7829 2023-12-20T22:00:08+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3989 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3989/thumbnail_3989_2021-05-03_12-16-43.jpg SUSPENSION STITCHES FOR COMPLEX NEONATAL ANASTOMOSES IPEG 2013 Annual Meeting Suspension Stitches for Complex Neonatal Anastomosis D.A.

Rook, Lisa K. Lee, Justin P. Wagner, Veronica F. Sullins, Steven L. Lee, Shant Shekherdimian, Daniel A. DeUgarte, Christine E. Dichter, Howard C. Jen   Background: The Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum is associated with prolonged hospitalizations due to pain. We evaluated implementation of intercostal nerve cryoablation and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols on outcomes of Nuss procedures performed over six years at a single institution. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included patients who underwent Nuss procedure from 10/2017 to 09/2023. Patients received epidurals prior to 06/2019, cryoablation from 06/2019 to 07/2021, and ERAS with cryoablation and intraoperative methadone administration after 07/2021. We used multivariable linear regression to evaluate length of stay (LOS), inpatient morphine milligram equivalents (MMEs), and discharge opioids. We assessed the balancing measures of operative time, postoperative pain scores, and complications. Results: We identified 62 patients; 15 who received epidurals, 18 cryoablation, and 29 cryoablation with ERAS. Cryoablation was associated with a 62.3% (p < 0.001) decrease in length of stay, an 86.6% (p < 0.001) decrease in inpatient MMEs, and a 72.9% (p < 0.001) decrease in discharge opioids. Cryoablation was additionally associated with 24.5% (p = 0.02) longer operative times and 46.4% (p = 0.04) higher postoperative day one pain scores. Subsequent implementation of an ERAS protocol was associated with a further 82.8% (p = 0.04) decrease in discharge opioids and a 25.0% (p = 0.04) decrease in postoperative day one pain scores. Conclusions: Over six years of quality improvement efforts, we found the implementation of cryoablation and ERAS protocols to be associated with a significant decrease in length of stay and opioid exposures. Protocolized pain management and cryoablation may work synergistically to improve outcomes without compromising patient experience. spaces/1/content/10353/3e9fb510b5b4b22f017340df9563d660.mp4 2025-04-15T21:12:56+00:00 1 channel#pediatric_surgery Lizzy Lee pectus excavatum cryoablation ERAS methadone Nuss procedure pedsurg JPS Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10399 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/10399/c37b28c4625bcb88007e808da76cebcd.jpg Long-term Survival of Bladder Augmentation is Influenced by its Shape and Mucosal Lining Emma Parkinson, Andrew Robb, Liam McCarthy Introduction: Bladder augmentation in the UK has been largely by enterocystoplasty or ureterocystoplasty (UC). Ileocystoplasty can be simple patch placement (SPP), or formation of an ileal cup (IC). Urothelium is the “right” mucosa, whereas intestinal mucosa exhibits absorption, mucus production, malignancy. On videourodynamics it can be shown that SPP fills with a poor conformation (irregular shape), while IC was good, and UC adequate. Our aim was to measure the long-term outcomes of augmentation, comparing UC (“right” mucosa and adequate conformation), to SPP (“wrong” mucosa and poor conformation) to IC (“wrong mucosa” and good conformation). Methods: Single-centre retrospective review. Patients were identified from operative logs for the period 2005 to 2022. Registered as an audit (CARMS 31503). Data collected included: demographics, dates: operation, redo-surgery, imaging, stones (renal/bladder) and any intervention. Data were given as numbers (%), median (range) analysed by Fisher exact test where P < 0.05 was taken as significant. Results: There were 168 bladder augmentations: UC (n = 24), SPP (n = 72), and IC (n = 72). Follow-up was no different for IC 4.23 (0.05–11.50) vs SPP 4.43 (0.15–13) yrs, but was longer for UC at 6.2 (4.1–8.9) yrs. Age at augmentation was 6.7 (2.5–17.1) vs 8.1 (2–17) vs 11.6 (5.9–17) yrs respectively (UC vs IC vs SPP, P = 0.0001). Revision surgery was required in 3/24 (12.5 %) UC, 6/72 (8.3 %) SPP, and 0/72 (0 %) IC. IC had fewer redos than SPP, P = 0.028. Long-term survival was significantly better for IC (100 % at 10 years, vs UC 85 % at 10 years and SPP 96 % at 5 yrs and 75 % at 10 yrs, log-rank P < 0.05). Imaging follow-up was available in SPP (n = 56) IC (n = 62), UC (n = 24) with renal stones identified in 7/56 (%) SPP, 2/62 (%) IC, and 0 in UC. Bladder stones were present in SPP 5/56 (8.9 %) vs IC 2/62 (3.2 %), NS.

Our aim was to assess the outcomes and national trends of same-day discharge following elective pediatric laparoscopic gastrostomy. Methods: ACS NSQIP-P registry data from 2017 to 2021 was used to evaluate elective pediatric laparoscopic gastrostomy patients who presented from home and discharged home with a diagnosis of failure to thrive, feeding difficulty or dysphagia. Patients discharged same-day postoperatively (SDD) were compared to those discharged 1–2 days postoperatively (non-SDD) for the primary outcome of unplanned 30-day readmission. Secondary outcomes included bleeding events, wound infection, and 30-day reoperation. Results: There were 5,947 patients identified; 4.7% were discharged same-day. The annual rate of SDD over 5 years went from 2.7% to 4.6%–4.8% to 4.5%–6.3%. There were no significant differences between SDD and non-SDD patients for early readmission or reoperation (0.7% vs 0.3%, p = 0.279), 30-day unplanned readmission (8.5% vs 8.0%, p = 0.407), reoperation (0.1% vs 1.4%, p = 1.000), or any other complications (p > 0.05). Binary logistic regression found pre-operative steroid use within 30 days increased risk of serious complication (OR 2.02, 95% CI 1.29–3.15, p = 0.002) and 30-day readmission or reoperation (OR 2.10, 95% CI 1.34–3.27, p = 0.001). All 6 patients (0.1%) who required reoperation within 3 days were identified prior to discharge, and none of the 16 patients readmitted within 3 days of surgery required reoperation. Conclusion: Though rates of same-day discharge following pediatric gastrostomy tube placement are low, they continue to increase annually. There were no significant differences in outcomes between same-day and non-same-day day discharge for elective cases presenting from and discharging home. In non-steroid using patients, same-day discharge following laparoscopic gastrostomy can be a safe op https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10299 2025-04-10T08:00:30+00:00 3 channel#pediatric_surgery NSQIP ACS american college of surgery gastrostomy tube Alex halpern journal of pediatric surgery eras same day discharge elective pediatric laparoscopic gastrostomy Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6515 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6515/thumbnail_6515_2023-03-23_12-00-10.jpg Update Course Rewind: Fetal Endotacheal Occlusion (FETO) for CDH 2022 We are back with another Update Course Rewind video.

Most are soft tissue lacerations and dental injuries readily apparent on clinical examination. Fractures requiring operative intervention are rare. Guidelines for utilization of maxillofacial CT in children are lacking. We hypothesized that head CT is a useful screening tool to identify children requiring dedicated facial CT. Methods: We conducted a multicenter retrospective review of children aged 18 years and under with blunt facial injury who underwent both CT of the face and head from 2014 through 2018 at five pediatric trauma centers. Penetrating injuries and animal bites were excluded. Imaging and physical examination findings as well as interventions for facial fracture were reviewed. Clinically significant fractures were those requiring an intervention during hospital stay or within 30 days of injury. Results: 322 children with facial fractures were identified. Head CT was able to identify a facial fracture in 89% (287 of 322) of children with facial fractures seen on dedicated facial CT. Minimally displaced nasal fractures, mandibular fractures, and dental injuries were the most common facial fractures not identified on head CT. Only 2% of the cohort (7 of 322) had facial injuries missed on head CT and required an intervention. All seven had mandibular or alveolar plate injuries with findings on physical examination suggestive of injury.

Padilla Full article: https://gcmd.co/3wATBod Introduction Minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum (MIRPE) with intercostal nerve cryoablation (Cryo) decreases length of hospitalization and opioid use, but long-term recovery of sensation has been poorly described. The purpose of this study was to quantify long-term hypoesthesia and neuropathic pain after MIRPE with Cryo. Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted single-institution of patients ≤21 years who presented for bar removal. Consented patients underwent chest wall sensory testing and completed neuropathic pain screening. Chest wall hypoesthesia to cold, soft touch, and pinprick were measured as the percent of the treated anterior chest wall surface area (TACWSA); neuropathic pain was evaluated by questionnaire. Results The study enrolled 47 patients; 87% male; median age 18.4 years. The median bar dwell time was 2.9 years. A median of 2 bars were placed; 80.9% were secured with pericostal sutures. At enrollment, 46.8% of patients had identifiable chest wall hypoesthesia. The mean percentage of TACWSA with hypoesthesia was 4.7 ± 9.3% (cold), 3.9 ± 7.7% (soft touch), and 5.9 ± 11.8% (pinprick). Hypoesthesia to cold was found in 0 dermatomes in 62%, 1 dermatome in 11%, 2 dermatomes in 17% and ≥3 dermatomes in 11%. T5 was the most common dermatome with hypoesthesia. Neuropathic symptoms were identified by 13% of patients; none required treatment. Conclusions In long-term follow up after MIRPE with Cryo, 46.8% of patients experienced some chest wall hypoesthesia; the average TACWSA with hypoesthesia was 4–6%.

Sin embargo, los niveles séricos de MMP-7 de algunos pacientes con BA estaban dentro del rango normal o ligeramente elevados. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo investigar las características clínicas y el pronóstico de la atresia biliar con niveles séricos bajos de MMP-7. Método Este es un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo. Se inscribieron consecutivamente los casos de BA desde julio de 2020 hasta diciembre de 2022. Se dividieron en un grupo con bajo contenido de MMP-7 (MMP-7 ≤ 25 ng/ml) y un grupo con alto contenido de MMP-7 (MMP-7 > 25 ng/ml) según los niveles séricos de MMP-7 antes de la operación. Se compararon entre los dos grupos las características clínicas perioperatorias, la tasa de eliminación de la ictericia a los 3 y 6 meses después del procedimiento de Kasai y la supervivencia del hígado nativo. Resultados En este estudio se incluyeron un total de 329 casos, 40 de los cuales se dividieron en el grupo de MMP-7 bajo. Los niveles preoperatorios de GGT y bilirrubina directa en el grupo con bajo contenido de MMP-7 fueron significativamente más bajos que los del grupo con alto contenido de MMP-7 (258,6 U/L, rango intercuartílico [IQR]: 160,4411,6 frente a 406,8 UI/L, IQR : 215.655,0, P = 0,0076; 103,8 μmol/L, IQR: 79,0.121,4 vs. 115,3 μmol/L, IQR: 94.138,8, P = 0,0071), mientras que el sexo, el día de la cirugía y el preoperatorio ALT, AST, TBA, total los niveles de bilirrubina no mostraron diferencias signi https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8912 2024-07-23T08:04:36+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1326 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1326/thumbnail_1503_2019-04-09_00-01-17.jpg Too Much Variability in Opioid Prescriptions for Pediatric Operations Do you routinely give your pediatric patients narcotics after a laparoscopic appendectomy for simple appendicitis?  Dr. K.

The objectives of this study were (1) to characterize changes in pancreas volume after RT and (2) to characterize changes in body composition, including body weight percentile, subcutaneous fat area, and total psoas muscle area (tPMA), after RT in children with abdominal HR-NBL.Design/methods: This retrospective study included patients aged 0-17 years old with HR-NBL cared for at a quaternary pediatric hospital (January 2012-December 2022). Pre- to post-RT differences in outcomes were compared using paired t-test, then modeled using linear regression to adjust for covariates and additional variables.Results: Fifty patients (median age 3 [IQR 2], 56% male) met the inclusion criteria. Median days from end of radiation to first post-radiation imaging was 15.5 days (IQR 14). Pre- to post-RT, mean pancreatic volume decreased significantly (from 16,731 mm3 [SD 7659] to 14,288 mm3 [SD 7418], p < 0.001) and patient body weight percentile declined significantly (48.4-44.9, p = 0.016), although neither was linearly associated with radiation dose. There were non-significant decreases in subcutaneous fat area standardized to height (38.6-36.9 cm2/m2, p = 0.41) and in tPMA z-scores (-1.56 to -2.09, p = 0.26).Conclusions: Patients undergoing RT for abdominal HR-NBL experienced significant pancreatic volume loss. This may place them at risk for pancreatic insufficiency. Patients also had significant decreases in weight percentile with corresponding non-significant decreases in subcutaneous fat and psoas muscle area. Further research is needed to characterize the association of these findings with pancreatic function and nutritional status. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11866 2026-04-24T18:07:24+00:00 Radiation therapy RT neuroblastoma high-risk neuroblastoma HR-NBL pancreas total psoas muscle area tPMA pancreatic volume Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8049 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/8049/thumbnail_9581_2024-03-05_12-51-13.jpg Colorectal Quiz Episode 38: Transitional Care in Colorectal Surgery Join our hosts and special international guests Dr. Stuart Hosie and Dr. Mark Malota from Germany.

A Multi-Center Review From the Pediatric Colorectal and Pelvic Learning Consortium Sarah Ullrich, Kelly Austin, Jeffrey R Avansino, Andrea Badillo, Casey M Calkins, Rachel C Crady, Megan M Durham, Megan K Fuller, Ankur Rana, Ron W Reeder, Rebecca M Rentea, Michael D Rollins, Payam Saadai, K Elizabeth Speck, Richard J Wood, Kathleen van Leeuwen, Jason S Frischer; Pediatric Colorectal and Pelvic Learning Consortium Background: Hirschsprung Disease (HD) is a rare cause of functional bowel obstruction in children. Patients are typically diagnosed in the neonatal period and undergo pull-through (PT) soon after diagnosis. The optimal management and post-operative outcomes of children who present in a delayed fashion are unknown. Methods: A multi-center retrospective review of children with HD was performed at participating Pediatric Colorectal and Pelvic Learning Consortium sites. Children were stratified by age at diagnosis (neonates 5 years). Results: 679 patients with HD from 14 sites were included; Most (69%) were diagnosed in the neonatal period. Age at diagnosis was not associated with differences in 30-day complication rates or need for PT revision. Older age at diagnosis was associated with a greater likelihood of undergoing fecal diversion after PT (neonate 10%, infant 12%, toddler 26%, child 28%, P < 0.001) and a greater need for intervention for constipation or incontinence postoperatively (neonate 56%, infant 62%, toddler 78%, child 69%, P < 0.001). Conclusion: Delayed diagnosis of HD does not impact 30-day post-operative outcomes or need for revision surgery but, delayed diagnosis is associated with increased need for fecal diversion after pull-through. spaces/1/content/9263/file_10818_2024-10-09_08-55-22.mp4 2024-10-09T08:55:22+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9114 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/9114/thumbnail_10668_2024-09-04_04-57-42.jpg Transition From Pediatric to Adult Healthcare for Colorectal Conditions: A Systematic Review Emma J. Moore, Susan M. Sawyer, Sebastian K. King, Melissa Y. Tiena, Misel Trajanovska Background: Despite surgical advances for complex congenital colorectal conditions, such as anorectalmalformation (ARM) and Hirschsprung disease (HD), many adolescents require transfer from specialistpediatric to adult providers for ongoing care. Methodology: A systematic review of PubMed, MEDLINE and Embase was conducted to identify what isknown about the transitional care of patients with ARM and HD (PROSPERO # CRD42022281558). ThePreferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework guided ourreporting of studies that focused on the transition care of 10e30-year-olds with ARM and HD. Results: Eight studies were identified that included patient and parent (n¼188), and/or clinician per-spectives (n¼334). Patients and clinicians agreed that transitional care should commence early inadolescence to support transfer to adult care when a suitable level of maturation is reached. There waslittle evidence from patients that transfer happened in a timely or coordinated manner. Patients felt thatclinicians did not always understand the significance of transfer to adult services. No models of transitioncare were identified. Surgeons ranked ARM and HD as the most common conditions to experiencedelayed transfer to adult care. Beyond pediatric surgeons, patients also highlighted the importance ofgeneral practitioners, transitional care coordinators and peer support groups for successful transition. Conclusions: There is little research focused on transitional care for patients with ARM and HD. Givenevidence of delayed transfer and poor experiences, the development of models of transitional care ap-pears essential. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9114 2024-09-04T04:57:42+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8015 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/8015/thumbnail_9547_2024-02-26_10-36-45.jpg Joseph Davidson, MA(Oxon), MBBS MRCS(Eng) - Best of the Best in Pediatric Surgery 2024 Watch EUPSA's Dr. Joseph Davidson presentation on “Sexual Function and fertility outcomes in women with Hischsprung disease” at the 2024 Best of the Best in Pediatric Surgery event!

There is a lack of standards and guidelines specific to transitional care in these conditions. We aim to establish and systematically categorize challenges and solutions related to colorectal transition care. Methods Systematic review of qualitative studies from MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed and Scopus databases (2008–2022) was conducted to identify the challenges and solutions of healthcare transition specific to ARM and HD. Thematic analyses are reported with reference to patient, healthcare provider and healthcare system. Results Sixteen studies from 234 unique articles were included. Fourteen themes related to challenges and solutions, each, are identified. Most challenges identified are patient related. The key challenges pertain to: (1) patient's lack of understanding of their disorder, resulting in over-reliance on the pediatric surgical team and reluctance towards transitioning to adult services; (2) a lack of education and awareness among adult colorectal surgeons in caring for pediatric colorectal conditions and inadequate communication between pediatric and adult teams; and (3) a lack of structured transition program and joint-clinic to meet the needs of the transitioning patients. The key solutions are: (1) fostering young adult patient's autonomy and independence; (2) conducting joint pediatric-adult transition clinics; and (3) ensuring a structured and coordinated transition program is available using a standardized guideline.

Complete excision can be impossible due to the infiltrative nature of some lesions and high rate of complications. Sclerotherapy may require multiple episodes of general anaesthesia and an inability to be definitive in terms of diagnosis and treatment. Subsequently we have adopted a newer algorithm of treatment involving a joint procedure with interventional radiology to enable an intra-operative treatment plan based on the findings. We present our early results. Method: A retrospective observational study in a single tertiary paediatric centre from January 2019 to December 2023. The details of each patient were recorded along with their treatment pathway and outcome. Results: 12 children underwent treatment for abdominal LM. Under GA and laparoscopic vision, pigtail catheters were inserted into the lesion to effect maximal drainage and assessment of surgical anatomy. If resection was feasible this was undertaken through a laparotomy and if not, the drains were retained and sclerotherapy was started. Three underwent drainage with sclerotherapy without resection and 9 underwent drainage with resection. Of the 3 who underwent sclerotherapy 2 have had further treatment and remain under review at a mean follow up of 7.6 months. Of the other 9 there were no signs of recurrence of the LM at a mean follow up of 29 (range 6–56) months. Conclusion: We have found a combined procedure involving IR-guided drainage under laparoscopic vision enabling curative surgical resection to be undertaken, where feasible, with currently no significant morbidity. For those in whom this is not possible then direct intralesional sclerotherapy is the next most useful treatment modality for longer term control of symptoms. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10393 2025-04-24T07:59:12+00:00 channel#pediatric_surgery Alex halpern Surgery pediatric surgery Sclerotherapy Guided drainage Lymphatic malformations some4pedsurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7941 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/7941/thumbnail_9471_2024-02-01_18-00-08.jpg Update Course Rewind: Botox in Hirschsprung Disease 2023 Our 11th Annual Update Course in Pediatric Surgery was held past August.

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of cryoanalgesia during minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum (MIRPE) on hospital days (HDs), total hospital costs (HCs), and complications. We hypothesized that cryoanalgesia would be associated with reduced HDs and total HCs with no increase in post-operative complications. Methods We conducted a retrospective review of pediatric patients who underwent MIRPE from 2011 to 2021. MIRPE details and post-operative outcomes within 90 days were abstracted. Total HDs included the index MIRPE admission and readmissions within 90 days. HCs were obtained from the hospital accounting system, retroactively adjusting for medical inflation. Bayesian generalized linear models with neutral prior assuming no effect were used. Differences between treatment groups were assessed using gamma distribution (HDs and HCs) and poisson (post-operative complications). All models used log link and controlled for age, gender, race, and Haller index. Results Forty-four patients underwent MIRPE during the study period. Cryoanalgesia was utilized in 29 (66%) patients. The probability of a reduction with cryoanalgesia vs. no cryoanalgesia was 99% for HDs (3.0 vs. 5.4 days; Bayesian RR: 0.6, 95% CrI: 0.5–0.8), 89% for HCs ($18,787 vs. $19,667; RR: 0.9, 95% CrI: 0.8–1.1), and 70% for postoperative complications (17% vs 33%; RR: 0.8, 95% CrI: 0.3–1.9).

En respuesta a ser un programa nacional de mejora de la calidad quirúrgica pediátrica (NSQIP-P) con un valor atípico alto para la intubación posoperatoria no planificada, nuestro objetivo fue reducir los eventos de intubación posoperatoria no planificada en un 25% en un año. Métodos/Intervención En 2018 se reunió un equipo multidisciplinario. La mayoría de los eventos de intubación no planificados ocurrieron en la unidad de cuidados intensivos neonatales (UCIN). Con base en las causas aparentes de intubaciones no planificadas identificadas en las revisiones de casos, en septiembre de 2019 se implementaron para los pacientes de la NICU una lista de verificación de preparación para la extubación y una guía para el manejo del dolor posoperatorio que enfatiza los analgésicos no opioides. Los eventos de intubación posoperatoria no planificada se rastrearon de manera prospectiva y se evaluaron mediante un proceso estadístico de mejora de la calidad.    Resultados Las intubaciones no planificadas en la UCIN disminuyeron de 0,27 a 0,07 eventos por paciente en el grupo pos-intervención (septiembre de 2019 a junio de 2022, n = 145) en comparación con el grupo pre-intervención (enero de 2016 a agosto de 2019, n = 200), lo que representa una reducción del 76%.

Este estudio tuvo como objetivo evaluar el impacto de la crioanalgesia durante la reparación mínimamente invasiva del pectus excavatum (MIRPE) en los días de hospitalización (HD), los costos hospitalarios totales (HC) y las complicaciones. Nuestra hipótesis es que la crioanalgesia se asociaría con una reducción de las HD y de las HC totales sin un aumento de las complicaciones posoperatorias. Métodos Realizamos una revisión retrospectiva de pacientes pediátricos que se sometieron a MIRPE de 2011 a 2021. Se resumieron los detalles de MIRPE y los resultados posoperatorios dentro de los 90 días. Las HD totales incluyeron el índice MIRPE de ingresos y reingresos dentro de los 90 días. Los HC se obtuvieron del sistema de contabilidad del hospital, ajustando retroactivamente la inflación médica. Se utilizaron modelos lineales generalizados bayesianos con previo neutral asumiendo que no hay efecto. Las diferencias entre los grupos de tratamiento se evaluaron mediante distribución gamma (HD y HC) y Poisson (complicaciones posoperatorias).

Scientific Video Session l: Coolest Tricks Moderators: Carroll Harmon, MD & Holger Till, MD Median Arcuate Ligament Syndrome is a chronic abdominal pain syndrome characterized by epigastric pain, nausea, and vomiting that leads to anorexia and weight loss. It is a diagnosis of exclusion, hypothesized to be caused by compression of the celiac artery and celiac plexus by the median arcuate ligament at the junction of the right and left diaphragmatic crura. Due to the presence of an identifiable mechanical constriction, the management of MALS is surgical. In this video, we present the key features of the robotic approach for its release in the pediatric population. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1290 2019-03-22T00:07:02+00:00 20 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8881 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/8881/thumbnail_10433_2024-07-17_10-21-20.jpg El cese del tratamiento con antibióticos para la apendicitis complicada en el momento del alta no aumenta el riesgo de infección posoperatoria Nuevo artículo que tienes que conocer del JPS, resumido por la Dra.

"La interrupción del tratamiento con antibióticos para la apendicitis complicada en el momento del alta no aumenta el riesgo de infección posoperatoria" Autores: Katie Russell, David E. Skarda, Trahern W. Jones, Douglas C. Barnhart, Scott S. Corto Articulo: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00560-2/abstract Objetivo La utilización de la terapia con antibióticos en el hogar después de una cirugía por apendicitis pediátrica complicada es muy variable. En 2019, interrumpimos la terapia con antibióticos domiciliarios en esta cohorte en nuestra institución. Intentamos evaluar nuestros resultados después de este cambio de protocolo. Métodos Consultamos los datos de nuestro NSQIP Pediatrics institucional para todos los niños sometidos a apendicectomía por apendicitis complicada entre enero de 2015 y mayo de 2022. Identificamos dos cohortes: los dados de alta con antibióticos en el hogar (1/1/15-30/4/19) y los dados de alta sin antibióticos caseros (1/5/19-30/4/22). Ambos grupos fueron tratados con antibióticos parenterales basados ​​en la respuesta mientras estaban hospitalizados y dados de alta cuando estaban clínicamente bien. Nuestro resultado primario fue la infección postoperatoria del espacio profundo de los órganos que requirió intervención (drenaje, aspiración, reoperación o antibióticos). Los resultados secundarios incluyeron duración de la estancia hospitalaria, infección superficial del sitio, colitis por Clostridium difficile, visitas a urgencias, imágenes por TC postoperatorias y reingreso. Resultados Hubo 185 pacientes en el grupo con antibióticos domiciliarios (83% dados de alta con antibióticos) y 121 pacientes en el grupo sin antibióticos domiciliarios (8,3% dados de alta con antibióticos). No hubo diferencias significativas en la infección del espacio orgánico profundo que requirió intervención (7% vs. 7,4%, p = 1,0).

Artículo completo: https://fn.bmj.com/content/108/5/523# Abstract Antecedentes y objetivo La realimentación de la fístula mucosa (MFR) tiene como objetivo maximizar la función intestinal cuando una ostomía está activa después de una cirugía abdominal, mediante la introducción del efluente de la ostomía proximal en la fístula mucosa distal para mantener la fisiología intestinal. El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar la efectividad y las complicaciones de la MFR en recién nacidos después de una cirugía abdominal. Diseño, ámbito e intervenciones Revisión sistemática y metanálisis de ensayos controlados aleatorios y estudios observacionales. Se realizaron búsquedas en PubMed, Embase, Cochrane y CINAHL hasta junio de 2022 en busca de estudios que incluyeran recién nacidos con ostomía que recibieron MFR en comparación con recién nacidos con ostomía sin MFR. Medición de Resultados El resultado primario fue la duración de la nutrición parenteral. Los resultados secundarios fueron el tiempo hasta la alimentación enteral completa, las tasas de colestasis, el pico de bilirrubina sérica total, la sepsis, el tiempo hasta la reanastomosis y la duración de la estancia hospitalaria. Resultados Se incluyeron un total de 16 estudios observacionales (n=623). En comparación con el grupo de comparación, los recién nacidos que recibieron MFR tuvieron menos días de nutrición parenteral (diferencia de medias 37,17 días, IC del 95 %: −63,91 a −10,4, n = 244, 5 estudios, GRADE: bajo). Además, los recién nacidos que recibieron MFR tuvieron tasas más bajas de colestasis, menor tiempo para alcanzar la alimentación completa y estancia hospitalaria más corta. Conclusión La baja certeza de la evidencia sugiere que la MFR se asocia con una duración más corta de la nutrición parenter https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7119 2023-09-06T22:00:08+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9268 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9268/thumbnail_10823_2024-10-10_07-12-30.jpg 2024 Fetal Care Center Frontiers in Fetal Neurology Day 2 - Introduction Drs.

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and benefits of an ERAS pathway in children undergoing resection of abdominal neuroblastoma.Methods: After IRB approval, all patients greater than 1 month old undergoing resection of an abdominal neuroblastoma at one of three children's hospitals between 2020 and 2022 were offered enrollment. A standardized ERAS protocol was utilized at all institutions. Data were prospectively recorded. We compared the prospective cohort to a historic cohort (2014-2020). Fisher's exact and t-tests were used, as appropriate.Results: The study included 23 patients in the ERAS group compared to 24 historic patients. Post-operative nasogastric tube use decreased from 91.7% pre-ERAS to 16.7% in the ERAS cohort. ERAS patients were advanced to regular diets and ambulated 3 days earlier than pre-ERAS. Post-operative opioid consumption decreased from 0.54 to 0.21 milligram morphine equivalents (MME) mg/kg/day (p = 0.047). All but one patient (23, 96%) in the pre-ERAS cohort experienced at least one post-operative complication, compared to only nine (39.1%) in the ERAS cohort (p < 0.001). Average length of stay was 3.7 days with ERAS compared to 6.9 days pre-ERAS (p = 0.004).Discussion: ERAS is associated with improvements in length of stay and a decrease in complications following resection of abdominal neuroblastoma. Children with neuroblastoma stand to benefit considerably from the benefits associated with the use of an ERAS protocol, given their intensive treatment, complex surgeries, and need for expeditious recovery. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11522 2026-02-16T14:14:37+00:00 2 anesthesia neuroblastoma surgery pediatric surgery some4pedsurg ERAS Enhanced recovery after surgery oncology abdominal neuroblastoma Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8464 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/8464/thumbnail_9999_2024-04-01_12-28-27.jpg IPEG 2024 Round Table Discussion from East Asia - Dr. Eri Ueda (Abe) Watch Dr. Eri Ueda (Abe) present on "Portal hypertension after Kasai without jaundice." spaces/17/content/8464/file_9999_2024-04-01_12-28-27.mp4 2024-04-01T12:28:27+00:00 channel#live_event_content Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11683 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/11683/file_11683_1_1773837860905.jpg Pediatric Oncofertility: From Cryopreservation to Future Fertility Solutions In this educational video from Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, Dr. Monica Laronda explores the rapidly evolving field of pediatric oncofertility—highlighting how fertility preservation is becoming an essential part of care for children at risk of treatment-related infertility.Key Highlights:Why Fertility Preservation Matters:Cancer therapies and certain genetic conditions can lead to premature gonadal failure, significantly impacting future reproductive potential and long-term quality of life.Who Should Be Considered:Fertility preservation extends beyond oncology to include patients with conditions like Turner syndrome and gonadal dysgenesis—emphasizing early counseling regardless of risk level or prognosis.Current Clinical Options:Post-pubertal patients may undergo oocyte or sperm banking, while ovarian and testicular tissue cryopreservation offer options for younger patients who are not yet producing mature gametes.Risk Stratification:Fertility risk is assessed using treatment exposure (e.g., alkylating agents, radiation) and cumulative dosing, helping guide decision-making and timing of intervention.Program Growth & Outcomes:Lurie Children’s has performed hundreds of tissue cryopreservation procedures, demonstrating both feasibility and increasing national awareness of these options.Advances in Fertility Restoration:Ovarian tissue transplantation can restore hormone function and fertility, though risks—such as reintroducing malignant cells—remain a key limitation.Future Innovation:Cutting-edge research in ovarian tissue engineering, including 3D-printed bioprosthetic scaffolds, is paving the way for safer and more effective fertility restoration.This session highlights how multidisciplinary care, research innovation, and early intervention are reshaping the future of fertility preservation for pediatric patients. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11683 2026-03-18T12:44:20+00:00 premature gonadal failure Fertility preservation Turner syndrome alkylating agents bioprosthetic scaffolds tissue cryopreservation 3D-printed bioprosthetic scaffolds Ovarian tissue transplantation fertility cryopreservation Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9083 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9083/thumbnail_10637_2024-08-28_12-24-11.jpg 2024 Update Course - Enlarging the Scope of ICG: Thyroid Use - P.

Demehri Full Article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(22)00790-4/fulltext Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to analyze the management and outcomes of primary button battery ingestions and their sequelae at a single high-volume center, and to propose a risk score to predict the likelihood of a severe outcome. Methods The medical record was queried for all patients under 21 years old evaluated at our institution for button battery ingestion from 2008 to 2021. A severe outcome was defined as having at least one of the following: deep/circumferential mucosal erosion, perforation, mediastinitis, vascular or airway injury/fistula, or development of esophageal stricture. From a selection of clinically relevant factors, logistic regression determined predictors of a severe outcome, which were incorporated into a risk model. Results 143 patients evaluated for button battery ingestion were analyzed. 24 (17%) had a severe outcome. The independent predictors of a severe outcome in multivariate analysis were location of battery in the esophagus on imaging (96%), battery size >/ = 2 cm (95%), and presence of any symptoms on presentation (96%), with P < 0.001 in all cases. Predicted probability of a severe outcome ranged from 88% when all three risk factors were observed, to 0.3% when none were present. Conclusion We report the presentation, management, and complication profiles of a large cohort of BB ingestions treated at a single institution. A risk score to predict severe outcomes may be used by providers initially evaluating patients with button battery ingestion in order to allocate resources and expedite transfer to a center with p https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6630 2023-05-10T16:00:12+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8079 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/14/content/8079/thumbnail_9612_2024-03-13_14-28-05.jpg Eficacia y efectos renales tardíos de la cirugía conservadora de nefronas en el tratamiento del tumor de Wilms unilateral: una revisión sistemática y un metanálisis Nuevo articulo que tienes que conocer por la Dra.

La revisión se realizó siguiendo las pautas del Manual Cochrane y los elementos de informe preferidos para revisiones sistemáticas y metanálisis (PRISMA). Se buscaron en cinco bases de datos (Pubmed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science y Cochrane) estudios que informaran la eficiencia y la función renal tardía de NSS y/o RN el 10 de febrero de 2023. Los estudios comparativos se evaluaron por riesgo de sesgo en estudios no aleatorios. Estudios de Intervenciones (ROBINS-I) y RoB 2.0. Los resultados evaluados incluyeron tasa de supervivencia, tasa de recaída, eGFR, disfunción renal e hipertensión. Se inscribieron 26 estudios que involucraron 10322 casos de WT unilateral sometidos a RN y 657 casos de WT unilateral a NSS.

Hallbera Gudmundsdottir, Wendy A Allen-Rhoades, Elizabeth B Habermann, Stephanie F Polites Abstract Background: Children continue to undergo right hemicolectomy (RHC) for neuroendocrine tumors (NET) of the appendix based on adult guidelines. Appendectomy alone is recommended for the pediatric population; however, there are no data on safety of this approach in the setting of positive margins. This study aimed to determine the association between tumor characteristics and survival in a national cohort, hypothesizing that survival would be excellent despite high-risk features including positive margins on appendectomy. Study design: Patients aged ≤ 18 years with NET of the appendix were identified in the National Cancer Database from 2004 to 2022 using ICD-O-3 codes. Characteristics of patients who underwent definitive appendectomy vs RHC were compared using Chi-square tests. Five-year survival was determined for appendectomy patients with and without high-risk size, margin, and lymph node (LN) features. Results: Of 1,339 patients, 1,156 (86%) underwent appendectomy and 183 (14%) RHC. Median age in both groups was 15 (13, 17) years. Patients who underwent RHC had larger tumors (24% vs 4% >2 cm, p<.001), more lymphovascular invasion (31% vs 10%, p<.001), and were more likely to undergo LN assessment (82% vs 10%, p<.001) with a higher LN positivity rate (31% vs 16%, p=.006). There was no difference in margins status (p=0.76). The 5- and 10-year survival was excellent regardless of tumor characteristics for patients overall (99.9% and 99.4%, respectively) and for those who underwent definitive appendectomy (99.9% and 99.2%). Conclusion: These data further support appendectomy as definitive management for children with appendiceal NET. Additional resection does not confer a survival benefit even in the setting of positive margins. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10941 2025-09-04T13:47:02+00:00 3 Lizzy Lee NET appendectomy hemicolectomy pedsurg neuroendocrine tumor carcinoid channel#pediatric_surgery Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6509 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/6509/thumbnail_6509_2023-03-20_12-00-11.jpg Quick Literature Updates Episode 2 We’re back with second episode of "Quick Literature Updates" the podcast series that delivers the latest updates in pediatric surgery literature in a quick and digestible format.

Our guests Drs. Joel Sorger, John Racadio and Neil Johnson are joined by Nicole Hilvert. Hosts: Ellen Encisco, MD, Em Tombash, MD With image guided surgery, surgeon uses real-time images of the inside of the body during an operation. These images are generally produced by a combination of X-rays, ultrasound, CT's etc. Hybrid OR (operating room) at Cincinnati Children’s is a collaboration between Radiology’s Dr. John Racadio and Surgeon-in-Chief Dr. Daniel von Allmen. The hybrid OR offers imaging capabilities in a sterile operating room. It creates an environment for surgeons and interventional radiologists to combine their individual skills and expertise in order to benefit patient care. The room is equipped with X-ray, fluoroscopy (live X-ray), ultrasound and C-arm Cone Beam computed tomography (CBCT). Surgeons work together in the hybrid OR with interventional radiologists, who specialize in using these imaging technologies. Imaging can be performed just before the surgery to help plan the procedure, during the surgery to identify important anatomy or disease, and after the surgery to evaluate results in the hybrid OR. Any surgery requiring radiologic imaging including open and minimally invasive surgeries, may take place in the hybrid OR. The hybrid OR at Cincinnati Children’s opened in 2018 and serves for general surgery, urology, orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery, pulmonology, and many more. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6406 2023-02-16T16:00:12+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7750 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7750/thumbnail_9265_2023-12-01_18-00-07.jpg Approaches to Biliary Atresia Care at Cincinnati Children's - Greg Tiao, MD - Controversies in the surgical management of children with biliary atresia Greg Tiao, MD presents “Controversies in the surgical management of children with biliary atresia” at the first ever Approaches to Biliary Atresia Care at Cincinnati Children’s. spaces/17/content/7750/file_9265_2023-12-01_18-00-07.mp4 2023-12-01T18:00:07+00:00 4 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8021 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/8021/thumbnail_9553_2024-02-26_10-52-06.jpg Peter Juviler, MD - Best of the Best in Pediatric Surgery 2024 Watch APSA's Dr. Peter Juviler’s presentation on “Reduction in Unplanned Intubations After Children’s Surgery: A Quality Improvement Project” at the 2024 Best of the Best in Pediatric Surgery event!

Otro artículo que tenes que conocer por Cecilia Gigena "La historia natural de las malformaciones congénitas broncopulmonares diagnosticadas prenatalmente" Matilda Karlsson et. al.  Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(22)00253-6/fulltext Journal of Pediatric Surgery Abstract Background The natural history of congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAM) and bronchopulmonary sequestrations (BPS) is not fully understood, and the management of the newborn with an asymptomatic lesion is a controversial issue. We aimed to study the natural history and outcome of CPAM/BPS at our institution with a policy of watchful waiting, and to investigate if any prognostic factors in the pre- and/or postnatal- period may predict the need for surgery. Material and methods A retrospective review study was conducted of children prenatally diagnosed with CPAM and/or BPS during the 18-year period, from 2002 to 2020. Data from the pre and postnatal period was collected and analysed. Results Sixty- six patients with prenatally observed lung lesions were entered in the study, with an overall survival rate of 94%. Fifty-six percent of the lesions decreased in size during gestation. Thirty-one percent had surgery and 69% could be managed conservatively with a median follow-up of 4 years. Nineteen percent developed symptoms after the neonatal period. Children with a presence of mediastinal shift on postnatal imaging (p = 0.003), with a high CVR (p = 0.005) and a large lesion size during gestation (p = 0.014) were significantly more likely to require surgery. Conclusion Prenatal regression is common among prenatally diagnosed CPAM/BPS and the majority of children that are asymptomatic beyond the neonatal period will remain asymptomatic throughout their childhood. Future analysis with a longer follow-up might give new insights in order to identify children at risk of developing symptoms. https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/20a11a14-1ece-4152-a337-f41c7f8cc8a4/AppleHLS1/2566c4df9a065884c909ab04dc534691.m3u8 2022-11-16T22:00:09+00:00 4 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6922 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6922/thumbnail_6922_2023-07-20_08-00-19.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Thoracoscopic Repair of Right Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia on ECMO Presenter: Wendy Jo Svetanoff, MD, MPHEmail: wsvetanoff@cmh.eduSocial Media: @WJSvetanoff @JFrasMDAuthors: Wendy Jo Svetanoff, MD, MPH; Katrina L Weaver, MD; Jason D Fraser, MD; Children's Mercy Hospital, Kansas City, MO, USACase Presentation: A male infant was prenatally diagnosed with a right-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia, with a lung-to-head ratio of 1.1 and liver herniating into the chest. After birth at 39 weeks, he developed respiratory failure requiring veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygen (ECMO) support.Operative Intervention: A thoracoscopic approach was selected and was performed within 24 hours of ECMO cannulation. The bowel and the liver were reduced into the abdomen and a thin rim of diaphragm posteriorly and medially was found. A 5 x 10cm biologic mesh was placed as an underlay and a 5 x 7.5cm polytetrafluoroethylene mesh was secured to the ribs laterally and to the muscle postero-medially as an overlay.Conclusion: The patient was decannulated from ECMO, underwent a laparoscopic gastrostomy that showed the repair to be intact, and was discharged home on POD #67. This video demonstrates feasibility of the thoracoscopic repair of right-sided CDH while on ECMO. spaces/2/content/6922/file_8378_2023-07-20_08-00-19.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:19+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6119 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/34/content/6119/thumbnail_6119_2022-11-16_22-00-08.jpg Pediatric Polyposis Syndromes: Hamartomatous Polyposis Syndrome Join Dr. Joseph Palermo for a review of Hamartomatous Polyposis syndromes.

In this Green Circle (established practice) session, Drs. David Vitale, Luke Neff, and Jeff Ponsky explore the “surgery-first” approach to pediatric biliary stone disease, highlighting the growing prevalence of choledocholithiasis in children and the evolving strategies to manage it effectively. Key Highlights: Surgery-First vs. ERCP-First: The panel compares the two main management strategies: ERCP followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy versus laparoscopic cholecystectomy with intraoperative cholangiogram (IOC) and stone removal. Practice-Based Decision Making: Experts emphasize that choice depends on surgeon skill, institutional resources, and the ability to perform IOC effectively. Clinical Evidence: Studies show an 86–90% success rate for ductal clearance using a surgery-first approach with IOC and flushing—offering a safe, resource-efficient option that minimizes ERCP-associated risks like pancreatitis. Learning Curve & Equipment: Surgeons are encouraged to become more comfortable with intraoperative stone removal techniques. Having a prepared kit and standardized workflow is key to success. ERCP Complications: While ERCP is effective, it carries a ~10% risk of complications including cholangitis and pancreatitis—making intraoperative solutions appealing when feasible. This session underscores a shift toward empowering surgeons with tools and confidence to manage choledocholithiasis directly in the OR, improving outcomes and optimizing resource utilization across institutions. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10706 2025-07-22T12:13:21+00:00 1 channel#pediatric_surgery pediatric surgery some4pedsurg pediatric surgery pediatric surgeon surgery-first pediatric biliary stone disease choledocholithiasis children Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2532 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/2532/thumbnail_3467_2020-05-01_22-00-09.jpg Pyloric Stenosis Dr. Bhargava Mullapudi, Pediatric Surgeon at Cincinnati Children’s, and Dr. Gillian Goddard, Pediatric Surgery Research Fellow at Cincinnati Children's, joins Dr. Rae Hanke to review the essentials of pyloric stenosis in this videocast.Pyloric Stenosis·      Definition: Acquired gastric outlet obstruction in infants·      Epidemiology:o   1-4/1000 Caucasian live births.

Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(22)00611-X/fulltext Abstract Propósuto La terapia transamniotica de células madre (TRASCET) con células madre mesenquimales (MSCs) ha probado experimentalmente revertir alguno de los efectos del crecimiento intrauterino (RCIU), aparentemente mediante la atenuación de la inflamación placentaria. Los déficits del neurodesarrollo conducidos por la inflamación neural son complicaciones mayores del RCIU. Buscamos determinar si la terapia TRASCET basada en MSCs también mitiga la inflamación cerebral.  Métodos Ratas Sprague-Dawley embarazadas (n = 8) fueron expuestas a intervalos de hipoxia de 12 horas (10.5% O2) desde el dia de gestación 15 (E15) hasta el término (E21). Un grupo se mantuvo sin tratar (n = 28 fetos). Tres grupos recibieron inyecciones isovolumétricas intraamnióticas en todos los fetos (n = 72) de solución salina (sham; n = 19), o una solución de líquido amniótico con MSCs, ya sea en su estado natural (TRASCET; n = 20), o con una primera exposición a (IFN-γ) e interleucina-1beta (IL-1β) por 24 h previo a la administración (TRASCET+Primer; n = 29). Las donantes de MSCs eran ratas Lewin singénicas cuyo fenotipo c2lular se obtuvo por citometría de flujo. Fetos normales sirvieron como control (n = 20). Múltiples analisis fueron realizados al término, incluyendo un ELISA en los cerebros fetales para las citoquinas pro-inflamatorias como el Factor de necrosis tumoral alpha (TNF-α) y la IL-1β. Se realizaron comparaciones estadísticas con el test de Wilcox, incluyendo el ajuste de Bonferroni para la significancia. Resultados La sobrevida global fue del 75% (88/116). El peso del cerebro fue significativamente menor al normal en ambos grupos sin tratamiento o tratados con solución salina (ambos p<0.001) https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6436 2023-03-01T22:00:08+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5355 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/7/content/5355/thumbnail_5355_2022-04-27_12-00-13.jpg MANAGEMENT OF CLOACAL EXTROPHY EUPSA & eUROGEN joint webinar Thomas Boemers (Cologne Germany)   Ivo de Blaauw and Wout Feitz (Nijmengen, The Netherlands) Moderated by Martin Lacher (Leipzig, Germany) and Augusto Zani (Toronto, Canada) https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/f36b4172-f0bc-4a8b-b09e-68ccc13b6ed2/AppleHLS1/4ce8b9beb0969b66eb67f030c2694f30.m3u8 2022-04-27T12:00:13+00:00 14 Medical Education yes EUPSA/ERNICA no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6739 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6739/thumbnail_6739_2023-06-16_16-00-16.jpg How to Care for Your Child’s Malone Site After Surgery Before performing any of the instructed steps in this video, always check with our team or your child’s pediatrician for safety.

This study tested the hypothesis that IBT is associated with poorer survival in children with HB.Methods: A multicenter retrospective observational study of patients aged <18 years with HB who underwent primary tumor resection, including liver transplantation, from 2010 to 2019 was performed at 19 institutions. The association of IBT with risk of recurrence and death were determined using propensity score reweighted (PSR) Cox proportional hazards regression analyses.Results: There were 338 patients identified who met inclusion criteria and had sufficient data for inclusion. Of those, 257 (76%) received IBT, including 253 (98%) who received packed red blood cells (pRBC), 84 (33%) who received plasma, and 28 (11%) who received platelets. IBT was associated with higher pretreatment extent of disease (p < 0.001), presence of annotation factors (+VPEFR: 50%, n = 129 vs. 37%, n = 30, p = 0.035), and complex resections (extended, meso-, or total hepatectomy: 54%, n = 139 vs. 27%, n = 22, p < 0.001); these differences were mitigated after applying propensity score weighting.

Methods:  From 2013 to 2023, 173 laparoscopic cholecystectomies were performed in 2 pediatric surgery units: 83 using standard technique (G1) and 90 using indocyanine green fluorescent cholangiography (G2). Patients included 96 girls and 77 boys, with a median age of 12.3 years (range 4-17) and a median weight of 51 kg (range 19-114). The 2 groups were compared regarding the following: (1) perioperative complications rate; (2) overall length of surgery (T1); (3) length of cystic duct isolation, clipping, and sectioning (T2); (4) time of gallbladder removal (T3); (5) degree of visualization of biliary tree; (6) safety and feasibility of indocyanine green fluorescent cholangiography; (7) incidence of anatomical anomalies detected intraoperatively. Results:  All laparoscopic cholecystectomies were accomplished without conversion to open. The perioperative complications rate was significantly higher in G1 compared with G2 (12% vs 0%; P = .0007). Median T1, T2, and T3 were significantly longer in G1 (90, 37, 35 minutes) compared with G2 (55, 17, 19 minutes) (P = .0001), respectively. The visualization rate of the complete biliary tree was significantly higher in G2 (98.8%) than in G1 (80.7%) (P = .0001). No adverse reactions to indocyanine green were recorded. The incidence of biliary anomalies detected intraoperatively was significantly higher in G2 (7.8%) than in G1 (1.2%) spaces/1/content/7956/file_9486_2024-02-07_16-00-08.mp4 2024-02-07T16:00:08+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7399 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7399/thumbnail_8892_2023-10-23_22-00-10.jpg CNA Conference - Dr. Roderick Tung - CNA: Early experience in the United States Dr. Roderick Tung presents “CNA: Early experience in the United States” at the Second World Congress on Cardioneuroablation. spaces/17/content/7399/file_8892_2023-10-23_22-00-10.mp4 2023-10-23T22:00:10+00:00 channel#live_event_content CNA Cardioneuroablation Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7395 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7395/thumbnail_8888_2023-10-23_22-00-09.jpg CNA Conference - Dr. Dan Wichterle - The Effect of Pulsed Electric Field Energy on Cardiac Ganglionic Plexi evaluated by Extra Cardiac Vagal Stimulation Dr. Dan Wichterle presents “The Effect of Pulsed Electric Field Energy on Cardiac Ganglionic Plexi evaluated by Extra Cardiac Vagal Stimulation” at the Second World Congress on Cardioneuroablation. spaces/17/content/7395/file_8888_2023-10-23_22-00-09.mp4 2023-10-23T22:00:09+00:00 channel#live_event_content CNA Cardioneuroablation Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6485 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6485/thumbnail_6485_2023-03-14_22-00-12.jpg Newborn repair of male rectoperineal fistula Marc A.

We aimed to determine if the size of tPTX on initial chest x-ray (CXR) was associated with a need for TT and failure of observation without TT. Methods: We performed a single-institution retrospective review of children (18 years or younger) presenting to a Level 1 pediatric trauma center between 2010 and 2023 with tPTX, excluding children without CXR and those transferred after TT. Observation was defined as progression in care with known tPTX but without TT; failed observation was defined as TT after initial observation. The volumetric Collins method was used to estimate size of tPTX on CXR. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), Youden's index, and multivariable regression analyses were performed. Results: There were 313 children with 358 instances of tPTX; of those undergoing observation, 45 (13.5%) failed. Those who failed observation had larger tPTX (14.1% vs. 6.5%, p < 0.001) and more frequently were hypotensive on arrival (26.7% vs. 10.2%, p = 0.006), had hemopneumothorax (22.2% vs. 3.5%, p < 0.001), received supplemental oxygenation (nasal cannula, 33.3% vs. 11.1%; nonrebreather, 37.8% vs. 58.5%; ventilated, 15.6% vs. 10.7%; overall p < 0.001), and were admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (47.4% vs. 30.6%, p = 0.008). Optimal size predicting need for TT placement on CXR was 12.5% (AUROC 0.715). On multivariable regression controlling for tPTX size ≥12.5%, mechanical ventilation, hemopneumothorax, and hypotension, only size ≥12.5% was associated with failure of observation. Conclusion: In children observed with tPTX, Collins size of ≥12.5% on CXR was independently associated with failure.

Padilla, Lisa E. McMahon Artículo completo: https://gcmd.co/40civ85 Introducción La reparación mínimamente invasiva del pectus excavatum (MIRPE) y la escisión de costillas cartilaginosas (CRE) para el síndrome de costilla deslizante (SRS) son procedimientos dolorosos. La crioablación del nervio intercostal (Cryo) controla el dolor y disminuye el uso de opioides en MIRPE. Aquí describimos nuestra experiencia con la crioablación en CRE. Métodos Se realizó una revisión retrospectiva de las historias clínicas de todos los pacientes sometidos a CRE entre 2018 y 2022. Se recopilaron datos sobre datos demográficos, características clínicas, detalles operativos y evolución hospitalaria. Resultados Un total de 98 pacientes se sometieron a CRE: 68 CRE sin crio, 22 CRE + Cryo y 8 combinados MIRPE + CRE + Cryo. El noventa por ciento de los pacientes se sometió a placas costales bioabsorbibles. Los pacientes eran predominantemente mujeres (79%, 73%, 50% respectivamente) con edades medias de 17,6, 16,9 y 14,2 años respectivamente. Los pacientes con CRE + crioterapia utilizaron significativamente menos opioides en el hospital (0,6 OME/kg [0,1,1,2]) en comparación con CRE sin crio (1,0 OME/kg [0,6,2,1]), p < 0,05. La mediana de la duración de la estancia hospitalaria (LOS) en CRE + Cryo fue de 1 día [1,2] en comparación con 2 días en CRE sin crio [1,2], p = 0,09. Los pacientes con MIRPE + CRE + crioterapia utilizaron 0,6 OME/kg [0,2,8,0] con una LOS de 2 días [1,5,5]. El noventa y uno por ciento de los pacientes con Cryo se sometieron a crioablación de los nervios intercostales T9 y/o T10, sin laxitud documentada de la pared abdominal en una mediana de seguimiento de 16 días. Cryo se aplicó extratorácicamente en CRE + crio si https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7467 2023-10-26T16:00:13+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrent Espanol no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/659 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/659/thumbnail_746_2018-11-10_00-05-19.jpg Pilonidal Disease - Aaron Garrison & Nicholas Bruns: Update Course 2014 Dr. Aaron Garrison presents information on pilonidal disease.

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the clinical outcomes of loop colostomies (LC) versus divided colostomies (DC) in patients with ARM. Methods After review registration (PROSPERO: CRD42024513335), we searched multiple databases for comparative studies on LCs and DCs in patients with ARMs. Gray literature was sought. The complications examined included stoma prolapse, urinary tract infection (UTI), skin excoriation, stoma retraction, parastomal hernia, wound infection rate, and stoma stricture. Three reviewers independently assessed the eligibility and quality of the included studies. Meta-analysis of selected complications was performed using Revman 5.4, with p < 0.05 considered significant. Results Eleven studies were included in the analysis, incorporating a total of 2550 neonates with ARMs, of which 1147 underwent LCs and 1403 underwent DCs. The meta-analysis revealed no significant differences between the two groups in the incidence of stoma prolapse (OR: 1.55, 95 % CI: 0.63 to 3.79; p = 0.34), UTIs (OR: 1.78, 95 % CI: 0.50 to 6.36; p = 0.38), skin excoriation (OR: 1.26, 95 % CI: 0.68 to 2.34; p = 0.46), stoma retraction (OR: 0.79, 95 % CI: 0.09 to 6.64; p = 0.83), parastomal hernia (OR: 0.99, 95 % CI: 0.22 to 4.48; p = 0.99), wound infection (OR: 0.35, 95 % CI: 0.10 to 1.20; p = 0.10), and stoma stricture (OR: 0.70, 95 % CI: 0.22 to 2.18; p = 0.53). Conclusions The findings suggest that LCs and DCs are viable options for fecal diversion, presenting similar risks and benefits. The choice between these techniques should consider individual patient characteristics and surgical expertise. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10428 2025-04-29T08:21:40+00:00 channel#pediatric_surgery pedsurg SoMe4PedSurg surgery colorectal Lizzy Lee anorectal malformation colostomy Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3263 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3263/thumbnail_3263_2020-11-04_06-00-08.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: An unusual flexible ureteroscopy IPEG 2020 Annual Meeting - Top Abstract Marc Barras, MD; Delphine Demede, MD; Yaqoub Jafar, MD; Guillaume Rossignol, MD; Aurora Mariani, MD; Pierre-Yves Mure, MD, PhD; Pierre Mouriquand, MD, PhD; Université Lyon 1 - Service de chirurgie pédiatrique de Lyon This is a case of an 11 year old boy which presents with a 8 mm ureteric stone in a transplanted kidney. Transplantation was performed with a living donor 1 year before for nephronophthisis. There was no urolithiasis in the father pre-transplant assessment. The ureteral stone was found on ultrasound scan 1 year after the transplantation. The ureter was reimplanted into the bladder using the Lich-Gregoir procedure, forbidding any access using standard ureteroscopy. A double J stent was first placed as the upper tract was dilated. A 5 mm port was placed through the lateral bladder wall, facing the ureteral meatus in order to introduce a guide in the renal cavities. After introducing a 6Fr sheath into the bladder a flexible ureteroscope was introduced into the ureter. A Dormia basket allowed to remove the stone. A trans-urethral catheter was left in the bladder for 4 days after the surgery.

A 4 month old, full termed, female, having presented with hypoglycaemia Examinations confirmed congenital hyperinsulinism. The imaging with positron emission tomography using 18 F- DOPA reveled an increased uptake of the isotope in the head of the pancreas (SUV 1,54), indicating focal hyperinsulinism. The pharmacologic therapy isn’t effective. The surgical treatment was then undertaken with laparoscopic approach. The head of pancreas and uncinate procress were mobilized and resected with the isthmus transsection using Harmonic scalpel. The Common bile duct was identified and left intact. Roux-en-Y loop was created and anastomosed intracorporeally to the end of the distal remaining part of the pancreas in the retrocolic faschion. The intraoperative course was uncomplicated. The postoperative period was uneventful. The patient remained euglycaemic at 2-year follow up.

Proximie - Transforming Healthcare, Episode 5 Bonus *This is not a paid partnership w/ Proximie.* In this series we aim to introduce to new technologies and some of the leaders working on and with those technologies. We’re back with another new technology that we believe will transform healthcare. Telementoring… Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell! Host: Em Tombash, MD By definition, telementoring is “a relationship, facilitated by telecommunication technology, in which an expert provides guidance to a less experienced learner from a remote location.” Previous research has shown us that telementoring can be used effectively and reliably as a surgical training aid. But, how did it start? In the traditional residency training model, a resident (trainee) spends day in and day out with an expert learning by watching the expert. Then the expert watches the trainee over and over again and over time, the trainee gets more and more autonomy. But then we graduate and we go off into practice and we're like on an island by ourselves, especially as all these new devices and technologies are developed. How do we learn new techniques once we're in practice? So they created a model of how a practicing surgeon can learn a new technique. Step one is a course or didactic instruction. Step two is that the trainee watches the expert physically in the operating room. And at this point, they institute a simulation model of one that exists in preparation for step three, which is that the trainee actually performs the case and the experts watching them physically there in the operating room. So then because it's difficult in practice to keep traveling, to go watch the expert over and over again, we've instituted the concept of telementoring. Telementoring allows for the two surgeons to work together virtually in classes where the expert can actually watch the trainee and certify that they actually are able to do the case on their own.

Laparoscopy has been used in rectal mobilization for other anorectal malformations but its use in repair of rectovaginal fistulas is not broadly reported. We have utilized laparoscopy in repair of several rectovaginal fistulas and present a case highlighting its advantages. Rectal mobilization and division of the common rectovaginal wall were performed laparoscopically. The motility gained by laparoscopic dissection of abdominal structures enabled a more limited perineal incision than usual, and sparing of the perineal body.

La etiología y la fisiopatología de la EII asociada a Hirschsprung (HD-IBD) siguen siendo desconocidas. Este estudio tiene como objetivo caracterizar aún más la HD-IBD, identificar los posibles factores de riesgo y evaluar la respuesta al tratamiento en un grupo grande de pacientes. Métodos Estudio retrospectivo de pacientes diagnosticados de EII tras un descenso, entre 2000 y 2021, en 17 instituciones. Se revisaron los datos sobre la presentación clínica y el curso de la EH y la EII. La efectividad del tratamiento médico para la EII se registró mediante una escala de Likert.

This video highlights the benefits of a team approach involving pediatric surgeons, ENTs, GIs, pulmonary specialists, speech therapists, and nutritionists. Key Points: Team Collaboration: The importance of utilizing diverse skill sets for optimal patient outcomes. ENT Surgeon's Perspective: Focusing on future swallowing, recurrent laryngeal nerve health, and preventing potential injuries. Cervical Approach: Isolating the cervical trachea and esophagus, avoiding nerve damage, and creating a tunnel for colonic interposition. Simultaneous Operations: Coordinated efforts where one surgeon harvests the graft while another prepares the esophagus. Case Study: Addressing recurrent tracheoesophageal fistulas and achieving successful outcomes with the aid of ENT expertise. Why ENT Surgeons are Essential: Their knowledge of head and neck anatomy and experience in complex airway management improve care delivery, outcomes, and reduce operative times. Immediate Involvement: Engaging ENT specialists early in the process to address complications with voice and swallowing. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8961 2024-08-05T13:21:38+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3184 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3184/thumbnail_4137_2020-10-14_19-00-09.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Retroperitoneoscopic Resection of Thoracolumbar Paraspinal Ganglioneuroma IPEG 2020 Annual Meeting - Top Abstracts Phillip B Ham, MD, MS; Clare Twist, MD; David Rothstein, MD, MS; Oishei Children's Hospital Paraspinal tumors arising from the sympathetic chain in the ganglioneuroma/neuroblastoma spectrum often require excision for diagnosis and may be amenable to minimally invasive approaches depending on their location and size. We present a patient with a paraspinal tumor extending from T11-L2 that was resected with retroperitoneoscopic surgery. This approach is rarely used in pediatric general surgery and was a useful alternative to laparoscopy or thoracoscopy.

Faculty of Medicine, Porto University.; 3Pediatric Oncology Department - Centro Hospitalar Universitário São João   Thymus experiences multiple physiologic, morphologic and topographic changes with time that interfere with the interpretation of imaging findings and with the diagnosis of pathologic alterations. An asymptomatic 6-year old girl was referred with the evidence of a paracardiac mass. Computed tomographic scanning revealed a thymic hyperplasia and an expectant attitude was initially adopted but the persistent finding of mediastinal enlargement lead to further investigation. A magnetic resonance imaging has shown a paracardiac mass, raising the possibility of a massive thymic hyperplasia, not excluding the diagnosis of a thymoma. Surgical removal was decided and performed by thoracoscopy. The patient was discharged in the second postoperative day. The histological analysis has revealed a complete exeresis of a B2a thymoma. Although rare, thymomas may present an uncertain biological behavior and a complementary treatment may be necessary if the surgical removal is incomplete.

Repair is generally performed in the infant period, although sometimes delayed into childhood due to associated comborbidities or social situations. We recently encountered a 17 year old male patient with an unrepaired rectourethral fistula. We elected to repair this using a combined abdominal and perineal approach, with robotic assistance for abdominal and deep pelvic dissection. Considerations for operative repair for this patient are different from repair in an infant or child. Simultaneous urethroscopic evaluation helps identify the true origin of the fistula and minimize the potential of a posterior urethral diverticulum. The robotic system is helpful for dissection of deep pelvic structures in this large patient, and for visualizing the location of the cystoscope. Lastly, performing the anoplasty in lithotomy position is challenging but eliminates the need to change to prone positioning for perineal work, which is helpful in this adult sized patient.

Achieving surgical margins recommended by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) for wide local excision (WLE) is challenging in children with less body domain. This study investigated whether surgical margin impacted postoperative clinical outcomes following WLE for melanoma in children and adolescents. Methods: All patients ≤21 years undergoing WLE between 2007 and 2023 were analyzed. Patients were categorized in groups of surgical margin <2 cm vs. ≥2 cm. The chi-square test/Fisher's exact test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to analyze categorical and continuous variables between groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the association of age and tumor location with surgical margin group and whether NCCN guidelines for WLE were met. Results: Of the 59 patients included, 61% had WLE with <2 cm margins. Head/neck melanomas were less likely to have margins ≥2 cm (OR = 0.121, 95% CI 0.022-0.648, p = 0.014) and margins that met the NCCN guidelines (OR = 0.002, 95% CI 0.003-0.215, p < 0.001) when compared to trunk/extremity primaries. There was no difference in the rate of postoperative complications or need for intervention for complications between patients with margins <2 cm and those with ≥2 cm. No patients experienced local recurrence with a median follow-up of 52 months (IQR: 16 to 93). Conclusion: Pediatric head/neck melanomas undergoing WLE were likelier to have narrow margins <2 cm and less likely to meet NCCN criteria. Narrow margins may achieve excellent results for pediatric melanoma patients. spaces/1/content/10418/0017dffa1d936ef23faefdec438f4885.mp4 2025-04-28T06:56:42+00:00 Wide local excision Surgical margin Pediatric melanoma dermatology Alex halpern jps journal of pediatric surgery cincinnati childrens pediatric surgery channel#pediatric_surgery Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11848 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/11848/file_11848_1_1776110461448.jpg Clinical & Research Update: Pediatric Liver Tumors - A Case-Based Discussion with Drs.

We describe the removal of a cystic type III SCT through a laparoscopic abdominal approach and a midsagittal gluteal incision. The patient is a full-term infant with an antenatal diagnosis of SCT. On day-of-life 4, he underwent SCT excision. Laparoscopic access was gained through an open approach. The cyst was drained and the cystotomy was closed. The middle sacral artery was secured. The cyst was circumferentially dissected toward the perineum. The bladder was suspended with a transabdominal suture for better visualization. The perineal approach was a sagittal incision through the natal cleft. The patient had an uncomplicated course and was discharged on post-operative-day four. Follow up MRI within a year showed no recurrence. At two years, he has normal bladder and bowel function. Laparoscopic approach is feasible and effective for a cystic SCT resection.

This study evaluated outcomes of patients who transitioned care from a pediatric intestinal rehabilitation program.Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted of intestinal failure patients who turned 20 years old between 2013 and 2022 with follow-up through February 2025. Patient characteristics, including demographics, anatomy, nutrition, and comorbidities, were collected for all patients at the age of 18 years. Patients were classified into exposure groups based on whether they transitioned to adult care or continued follow-up at our institution. Univariate analysis comparing groups was performed with Mann-Whitney U test or chi-square/Fisher's exact test, with P < 0.05 being significant.Results: Forty-six patients were included, with 68% having short bowel syndrome. Nine patients (20%) had an ostomy and 14 of 46 (30%) continued to receive parenteral nutrition. Twenty-seven patients (59%) transitioned to adult care at a median age of 20.8 (interquartile range [IQR], 3.8) years. No demographic, nutrition, or comorbidity differences were observed between groups. Higher mortality rates occurred among patients who transitioned care compared with patients continuing care at our institution (33% vs 5%; P = 0.02). The median time duration to death was 12 months (IQR, 43.5).Conclusion: Patients transitioned to adult care have a higher mortality rate, despite no obvious difference in medical complexity based on medical devices or comorbidities. Additional studies are needed to understand this difference. Increased awareness and structured transition programs are essential to ensuring optimal long-term outcomes. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11901 2026-05-04T16:18:20+00:00 intestinal failure mortality transition to adult care pediatric intestinal rehabilitation program short bowel syndrome comorbidity parenteral nutrition pediatric surgery some4pedsurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/4783 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/7/content/4783/thumbnail_4783_2021-12-28_12-00-14.jpg Decision Making in Colorectal Surgery May 2021                 A collaboration of EUPSA - Washington Children's National - European Journal of Pediatric Surgery Reports                 Discussion of clinical scenarios in a Quiz-format Faculty: Marc Levitt Panelists: Alejandra Vilanova Sanchez, Paola Midrio, Stefano Giuliani Moderated by Martin Lacher and Augusto Zani spaces/7/content/4783/file_6022_2021-12-28_12-00-14.mp4 2021-12-28T12:00:14+00:00 2 Medical Education yes EUPSA/ERNICA no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6468 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6468/thumbnail_6468_2023-03-14_16-00-13.jpg Perineal Body Disruption Following Unrecognized Obstetrical Trauma Lane VA, Wood RJ, Levitt MA, Hewitt G  Center for Colorectal and pelvic Reconstruction, Nationwide Children's Hospital   spaces/8/content/6468/file_7891_2023-03-14_16-00-13.mp4 2023-03-14T16:00:13+00:00 1 Medical Education yes Colorectal Channel no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9094 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9094/thumbnail_10648_2024-08-28_13-17-36.jpg 2024 Update Course - Tips & Tricks for Gastostomies & Nissen - Miguel Guelfand This year was the 12th Annual Pediatric Surgery Update Course, where top hospital experts from around the world discussed this year’s changes in practices and innovation.

Despite years of developing this technique, functional outcomes remain poor, including obstructed menstruation in 38% of patients and amenorrhea in 25%. This video presents an alternative operative strategy with delayed urogenital reconstruction. This muscle-sparing approach begins with real-time MRI-guided needle placement through the anal sphincter complex and levator ani, followed by combined endoscopic and laparoscopic (CELS) rectal mobilization, and finally anorectal pull-through. The patient in this video was born with persistent cloaca with no cervical os identified, no hydrocolpos, and normal bladder capacity. The patient’s family was counseled by Pediatric Urology, Adolescent Gynecology, and Pediatric Surgery. They elected to delay urogenital reconstruction and proceed with the above-described anorectoplasty. With appropriate patient selection, this technique addresses fecal diversion only with urogenital reconstruction delayed to an age where the patient can actively participate in shared decision making.

MIS Trick to Preserve both Gonads IPEG 2020 Annual Meeting - Top Abstracts Authors: Emiro Redondo, MD; Pablo D`Alessandro, MD; Marcela Bailez, MD; Children's Hospital Garrahan PMDS is a disorder with persistence of Müllerian duct in 46XY. Cryptorchidism is a usual presenting symptom. Aim: Show a novel MIS technique to preserve both gonads. A 4.9-year-old boy was referred because of the finding of Müllerian structures during a laparoscopic bilateral 1st stage Fowler Stephens procedure. He had a 46XY cariotype, a low AMH and normal testosterone, LH and FSH A rudimentary uterus with symmetrical fallopian tubes, and testis-appearing gonads without a vas were found. Trick: As no spermatic pedicle was available and no vas existed we designed the rigth testicle descent using a flap keeping the right tube which was detached from the uterus and the left one using the whole uterus with the left tube and round ligament pedicle. We managed to move them to the scrotum with good vascular supply. Result: Both testicles present with good size and vascularity in control doppler US.

Resection of pulmonary lesions has previously been described but presents several technical difficulties in both localization and surgical resection. This video illustrates the use of indocyanine green (ICG) dye and UV laser imaging to successfully identify lesions intraoperatively while maintaining a thorascopic approach for resection. One significant advantage of this novel application is increased sensitivity for lesions unidentified by pre-operative CT scan. The demonstrated technique allows for a more focused, parenchymal sparing resection of pulmonary lesions in a superficial location as compared to traditional pre-operative wire localization. This video exhibits the feasibility, safety, and improved accuracy of thorascopic hepatoblastoma metastasectomy resection augmented by use of indocyanine green.

After an inconclusive ultrasound to evaluate for appendicitis, a CT scan was obtained, which demonstrated pancreatic inflammation and a cystic structure within the porta hepatis. The initial lipase level was 6000. An MRCP was then performed, which showed a type 1 choledochal cyst measuring 4.2 cm in diameter. Following resolution of her pancreatitis, she was brought to the operating room two months later for laparoscopic resection of the choledochal cyst. Operative Technique: Since the primary surgeon was left-handed, we chose a right lateral approach for port placement. We utilized a four-port technique with 5 mm short instruments, a 5 mm vessel sealing device, and a 5 mm stapler. Intraoperatively, an accessory hepatic duct was noted originating from the right posterolateral portion of the cyst. This was sutured intracorporeally to the proximal common hepatic duct to construct a common channel. The hepaticoduodenostomy was performed from the patient’s right side, suturing primarily with the left hand. Hospital Course: The patient experienced an uneventful recovery. She was started on a regular diet on postoperative day 4. She did not experience postoperative jaundice and bowel movements were normal in appearance. She was discharged on postoperative day 6. Pathology for the specimen was consistent with a choledochal cyst. No subsequent issues were noted at follow up 3 months after discharge.

It has been used as an aid for identification of structures in various general surgical procedures due to its concentration within highly vascular tissue. ICG's utility in adrenal surgery has been demonstrated in adults, however has not yet been evaluated in the pediatric population. This video demonstrates the successful utilization of ICG fluorescence during laparoscopic cortical-sparing adrenalectomy in a 14-year-old boy with von Hippel Lindau syndrome and metachronous pheochromocytoma. A prior history of right-sided pheochromocytoma had resulted in a right adrenalectomy, however he presented five years later with a new tumor involving the left adrenal gland. During laparoscopic left cortical-sparing adrenalectomy ICG fluorescence was used to identify the adrenal gland and dissect the mass away from surrounding retroperitoneal structures. There were no surgical complications and the patient has no baseline steroid requirements postoperatively.

A 5mm port was placed in the umbilicus for a camera, and 2 stab incisions were placed in the right/left mid quadrants. One transabdominal suture was placed for liver retraction. After kocherization, the enterotomies were made in the proximal and distal portions of the duodenum. Another transabdominal stitch was placed through the enterotomies to align the 2 limbs. The camera was placed through a stab incision, and the 5mm stapler placed through the port. The stapler was inserted and fired to create the anastomosis. The enterotomy was closed with multiple interrupted sutures. The baby was kept NPO until POD#5- an UGI confirmed no leak with passage of contrast into the distal bowel. The baby’s diet was advanced, and he was discharged home on POD#10 on full feeds.

An 8 month-old girl was admitted to our center for urinary dripping and infection. Imaging studies showed a nonfunctional upper moiety of left reno-ureteral duplication. Our SILS procedure began with a modified Z-shaped 15mm umbilical skin incision. Two 5.5mm trocars and one 3.5mm trocar were placed at different points in the same skin incision site. Left upper hemi-nephro-ureterectomy was performed with conventional straight laparoscopic instruments. The operative duration was 120 minutes. There was no significant blood loss, no intra- or post-operative complication. The patient resumed oral feeding on the 1st POD and was discharged on POD 3. At a follow up of 12 months, she was asymptomatic and had no visible operative scar. The same technique was used in two other children for left and right upper hemi-nephro-ureterectomy with good outcomes and excellent postoperative cosmesis.

It is often asymptomatic, but can present with pain, gastric outlet obstruction, vomiting, and dysphagia. Pyloric obstructions from HP can cause several of these symptoms and require surgical intervention. This case report documents the first surgical resection of a symptomatic HP using a laparoscopic transgastric approach, under endoscopic guidance preformed on an 18-year-old male. This innovative method is a minimally invasive option for HP resection compared to open abdominal surgery, allowing for a faster recovery and limited complications.  Presenter: Afua Amoabin, BS Email: aamoabin@mcw.edu Social Media: Facebook @medicalcollegeofwisconsin Instagram @medicalcollegeofwi Facebook @childrenswi Instagram @childrenswi https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/06b64b93-82b3-4a1d-a994-dddb54d45d06/AppleHLS1/b4629561e5e6eaa235533bbab2a3ee0a.m3u8 2020-07-16T02:20:47+00:00 6 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6471 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6471/thumbnail_6471_2023-03-14_18-00-10.jpg Transanal recto colonic resection for idiopathic constipation (No audio) Marc, A.

After birth at 39 weeks, he developed respiratory failure requiring veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygen (ECMO) support. Operative Intervention: A thoracoscopic approach was selected and was performed within 24 hours of ECMO cannulation. The bowel and the liver were reduced into the abdomen and a thin rim of diaphragm posteriorly and medially was found. A 5 x 10cm biologic mesh was placed as an underlay and a 5 x 7.5cm polytetrafluoroethylene mesh was secured to the ribs laterally and to the muscle postero-medially as an overlay. Conclusion: The patient was decannulated from ECMO, underwent a laparoscopic gastrostomy that showed the repair to be intact, and was discharged home on POD #67. This video demonstrates feasibility of the thoracoscopic repair of right-sided CDH while on ECMO.

IPEG 2020 Annual Meeting - Top Abstracts Authors: Dorothy Rocourt, MD, FACS1; William Wong, DO2; Danielle Peterson, MD2; 1Penn State Children's Hospital; 2Penn State Health This is a video demonstrating the take down of an ileocolic fistula. The key elements of this procedure were patient position to allow further evaluation and using a penrose to isolate the fistula. Our patient is a 17 year old male presenting with complaints of severe back and leg pain for 1 week. He had a history of Ulcerative Colitis (UC). A computed tomography (CT) revealed inflammation of the distal colon and a right lateral perirectal fistula communicating with a presacral abscess. Two weeks later, he had a CT guided presacral drain study which showed fistulous communications between the presacral abscesses within the rectum and the distal ileum. He was taken to the operating room for laparoscopic takedown of the fistula and fecal diversion. Postoperatively, he was started on Remicade. Three months later, he had a normal colonoscopy and barium enema. He then had a laparoscopic ileocectomy with primary stapled ileocolic anastomosis. Final pathology was consisted with Crohn’s ileitis.

Treatment options include incision and drainage under general anaesthesia or non-operative treatments, such as antibiotics and/or aspiration under local anaesthetic, which avoid the risks of surgery. Current management is based on surgeon preference due to a poor underlying evidence base. In this study we aimed to compare outcomes for non-operative and operative management of infant PA. Methods 10-year retrospective review (2012–2022) of infants aged ≤12 months presenting with PA to two paediatric surgery centres in the United Kingdom. Clinical features, management and outcome data were extracted from electronic records. Results 116 infants were identified; 113/116 (97 %) were male. Median age at presentation was 2 (IQR 1–6) months. Initial management was non-operative in 73/116 (63 %) and operative in 43/80 (37 %). Median follow-up was 3 (IQR 2–6) months. Recurrence occurred in 49/116 (42 %) at a median time of 1 (IQR 0–3) month and was significantly higher in the non-operative compared to the operative group (39/73 [53 %] versus 10/43 [23 %], p = 0.001). Operative management was independently associated with a reduced risk of PA recurrence (OR 0.25 [95 % confidence interval 0.09–0.68], p = 0.007). Further surgery was performed in 26/73 (36 %) in the non-operative group and 7/43 (16 %) in the operative group (p = 0.026). Subsequent FIA rates were not significantly different (23/73 [32 %] versus 8/43 [19 %], p = 0.129). Conclusions In this study, PA recurrence and the requirement for further operative intervention were significantly higher when a PA was initially managed non-operatively, although subsequent FIA rates were similar. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10431 2025-04-29T08:24:17+00:00 1 channel#pediatric_surgery pedsurg LizzyLee fistula anesthesia antibiotics perianal abscess Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11230 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/public-assets/defaults/default_thumbnail.jpg Bedside vs Conventional Operating Room Surgery in Critically Ill Newborns: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Fabiola Cassaro, Pietro Impellizzeri, Martina Maiorana, Carmelo Romeo, Salvatore ArenaBackground: Surgical procedures in critically ill neonates are typically performed in the operating room, though transferring unstable patients from the NICU carries risks such as hypothermia and clinical deterioration. Bedside surgery in the NICU has emerged as an alternative for patients unfit for transport. This systematic review and meta-analysis compared perioperative outcomes of bedside versus operating room surgery in neonates.Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines and PROSPERO registration (CRD420251001354), we searched PubMed, Ovid, and CENTRAL (1990-2025) for studies comparing neonatal surgeries performed in the operating room or bedside. Primary outcomes were mortality and surgical site infections; secondary outcomes included intra- and post-operative hypothermia, operative time, and hospital length of stay. Risk of bias was assessed with ROBINS-I and evidence certainty with GRADE.Results: Nine studies (1098 neonates: 693 operating room and 405 bedside group) were included. Mortality was significantly higher in the bedside group (25.82 %) than operating room group (7.32 %) (p < 0.0001). Subgroup analysis showed this difference was significant for congenital diaphragmatic hernia, but not for patent ductus arteriosus. Surgical site infections did not different significantly. Bedside was associated with lower intra-operative hypothermia (p = 0.024), while no differences were found in postoperative hypothermia, length of stay, or operative time.Conclusions: This meta-analysis found higher mortality in the bedside surgery group, though infection risk, post-operative hypothermia, operative time, and hospital stay were similar between groups.

El uso de imágenes de tomografía computarizada (TC) en la evaluación de FBA ha surgido recientemente y podría ayudar a obviar la broncoscopia innecesaria en estos pacientes. El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar la precisión diagnóstica de la TC en el diagnóstico de FBA pediátrica. Métodos Se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura para identificar estudios que informaran sobre el uso de imágenes por TC en sospechas de FBA pediátrica. La búsqueda incluyó artículos publicados en Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid EMBASE, PubMed MEDLINE y Web of Science. La estrategia de búsqueda incluyó todos los artículos desde el inicio de la base de datos hasta enero de 2021. Los manuscritos se revisaron y calificaron según su calidad mediante la herramienta QUADAS-2. Se realizaron análisis de subgrupos basados ​​en el uso de broncoscopia virtual (VB) y sedación. También se realizó un metanálisis que evaluó el uso de VB en el diagnóstico de FBA. Resultados Dieciséis manuscritos cumplieron con todos los criterios de inclusión. En total, 2056 pacientes pediátricos de entre 0,3 y 15 años se sometieron a TC por sospecha de FBA. La sensibilidad y especificidad de la TC fueron 98,8% y 96,6%, respectivamente. Se utilizó VB en el 71,4% (1391/1948) de los pacientes mientras que se requirió sedación durante la TC en el 70,2% (1263/1800) de los pacientes. La dosis de radiación varió de 0,04 a 2 mSv, 0,99 a 59,1 mGy-cm y 0,03 a 16,99 mGy.

Wu, Pierce L. Curran, Monica Zukowski, Tonya S. King, Kathryn L. Martin, Christa N. Grant Full article: https://www.jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3468(23)00189-6/fulltext Abstract Background Obtunded pediatric patients are often placed in cervical collars (c-collars) to protect their cervical spine (c-spine) while injury is being ruled out, even without a known traumatic injury. The goal of this study was to determine the necessity of c-collars in this population by determining the rate of c-spine injury among patients with suspected non-traumatic mechanisms of loss of consciousness. Methods A single institution, ten-year retrospective chart review was conducted including all obtunded patients admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit without a known traumatic event. Patients were categorized into five groups based on etiology of obtundation: respiratory, cardiac, medical/metabolic, neurologic, and other. Comparisons were made between those placed in a c-collar and a control group who were not, using Wilcoxon rank sum test for continuous measures, and Chi-square or Fisher's exact test for categorical measures. Results 464 patients were included, of which 39 (8.41%) were placed in a c-collar. There was a significant difference in whether a patient was placed in a c-collar based on diagnosis category (p < 0.001). Those placed in a-c-collar were more likely to undergo imaging studies than the control group (p < 0.001). The overall incidence of c-spine injury in this patient population in our study was zero. Conclusion Cervical collar placement and radiographic evaluation is not necessary in obtunded pediatric patients who present without a known traumatic mechanism as the overall risk of injury is low. Consideration for collar placement should be give https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6803 2023-07-10T22:00:09+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8883 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/8883/thumbnail_10435_2024-07-17_10-49-05.jpg PECARN prediction rules for CT imaging of children presenting to the emergency department with blunt abdominal or minor head trauma New article you should know about by Cecilia Gigena, selected by the Chilean Society of Pediatric Surgery. (To see the Criteria go to the bottom part of the description!) "PECARN prediction rules for CT imaging of children presenting to the emergency department with blunt abdominal or minor head trauma: a multicentre prospective validation study" Authors: Prof James F Holmes, MD , Prof Kenneth Yen, MD, Irma T Ugalde, MD, Prof Paul Ishimine, MD, Pradip P Chaudhari, MD, Nisa Atigapramoj, MD, Prof Mohamed Badawy, MD, Prof Kevan A McCarten-Gibbs, MD, Donovan Nielsen, BA, Allyson C Sage, MPH, Grant Tatro, MD, Prof Jeffrey S Upperman, MD, Prof P David Adelson, MD, Prof Daniel J Tancredi, PhD, Prof Nathan Kuppermann, M Full Article: https://gcmd.co/3W7f6Wq Background The intra-abdominal injury and traumatic brain injury prediction rules derived by the Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network (PECARN) were designed to reduce inappropriate use of CT in children with abdominal and head trauma, respectively. We aimed to validate these prediction rules for children presenting to emergency departments with blunt abdominal or minor head trauma. Methods For this prospective validation study, we enrolled children and adolescents younger than 18 years presenting to six emergency departments in Sacramento (CA), Dallas (TX), Houston (TX), San Diego (CA), Los Angeles (CA), and Oakland (CA), USA between Dec 27, 2016, and Sept 1, 2021. We excluded patients who were pregnant or had pre-existing neurological disorders preventing examination, penetrating trauma, injuries more than 24 h before arrival, CT or MRI before transfer, or high suspicion of non-accidental trauma. Children presenting with blunt abdominal trauma were enrolled into an abdominal trauma cohort, and children with minor head trauma were enrolled into one of two age-segregated minor head trauma cohorts (younger than 2 years vs aged 2 years and older). Enrolled children were clinically examined https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8883 2024-07-17T10:49:05+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9358 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/9358/thumbnail_10914_2024-10-29_12-37-15.jpg QUAD #18: Vascular Rings & Aortic Uncrossing with Dr. Carl Backer In this video, Dr. Carl Backer, renowned pediatric surgeon, shares insights on vascular rings and aortic uncrossing at Cincinnati Children's Hospital.

These innovative techniques could revolutionize the treatment of GI disorders. Key Highlights: Complexity of the Gut: The GI tract is more than just an epithelial lining—it's a complex system involving nerves, muscles, immune responses, and microbiota. Lab Achievements: The team has successfully grown human intestines from stem cells, which have been transplanted into animals and shown to be fully functional. Nerve Integration: Adding nerves to the transplanted tissue enhances vascular growth, making the grafts more effective, particularly for structures like the esophagus. Tissue Engineering: The team developed methods to create long tubes of GI tissue with integrated nerves and demonstrated peristalsis, critical for creating functional organs. Clinical Applications: The researchers are working on methods to transplant these tissues into patients, using advanced techniques like hydrogels and UV polymerization to secure the cells in place. Future Prospects: Esophageal Strictures and Beyond: This research could lead to new treatments for conditions like esophageal strictures, with potential clinical applications expected within this decade. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9104 2024-08-30T06:18:34+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9097 2026-08-01 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9097/thumbnail_10651_2024-08-28_13-22-20.jpg 2024 Update Course - Closing Statement - Todd Ponsky This year was the 12th Annual Pediatric Surgery Update Course, where top hospital experts from around the world discussed this year’s changes in practices and innovation.

Welcome to Episode 3 of "Functional Neurosurgery, Explained". In this episode, I trace the full evolution from neuroablation to neuromodulation — from the first thalamotomies in the 1950s to adaptive closed-loop DBS today. Using Parkinson's disease as the clinical model, I build the story from basic circuit anatomy all the way to the 1987 discovery that changed functional neurosurgery forever. ▶️ In this video you will learn: Why Parkinson's disease is a circuit disorder, not just a dopamine deficiency How the direct and indirect pathways control movement — and what breaks down in PD Why the subthalamic nucleus becomes overactive despite being structurally intact How thalamotomy and pallidotomy worked — and why irreversibility was their fatal limitation What Benabid discovered in Grenoble in 1987 and why it shifted the entire question of surgery A direct comparison between neuroablation and neuromodulation across every clinical dimension What adaptive closed-loop DBS is and why it represents the future of the field This series is designed for: Medical students and trainees curious about functional neurosurgery Neurology and neurosurgery residents Neuroscience and biomedical engineering students Any clinician who wants to understand the rationale behind DBS surgery I keep the language simple, avoid unnecessary jargon, and focus on clear mental models you can carry with you into clinical practice. 📺 Series roadmap: Episode 1 – Finding 1 mm in the Brain (localisation) Episode 2 – Frames and the Geometry of Precision Episode 3 – Neuromodulation vs. Neuroablation ← You are here Future episodes – Targets, physiology, and real operative workflows If you find this useful: 👍 Like the video 📝 Leave a comment — tell me which topic you want covered next 🔔 Subscribe to follow the full series Links and resources: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-amr-mours https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13634 2026-07-29T21:23:12+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13723 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mEE-O7ZBEPQ/hqdefault.jpg Jeffrey Ponsky: Portrait of a SAGES Pioneer Presented during the SAGES 2019 Annual Meeting. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13723 2026-07-29T22:56:53+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13724 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/9C_meG7sGDM/hqdefault.jpg Ponsky and Gauderer invent the PEG tube Great story from Jeffrey ponsky about the invention of PEG. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13724 2026-07-29T22:56:54+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13252 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/A0GPrq66D1I/hqdefault.jpg What Is A Blepharoplasty?

Marc Levitt, Jason Frischer, Kristy Rialon, and Lily Cheng explore the diagnostic and surgical challenges of Hirschsprung's disease, featuring a neonatal patient with Trisomy 21. Through a step-by-step case discussion, they highlight how early recognition, biopsy strategy, and patient-specific surgical planning can dramatically improve outcomes. Key Highlights: Patient Case Study: A newborn with Trisomy 21, bilious emesis, and delayed meconium passage sparks a thorough workup for Hirschsprung's disease. Diagnosis: The team breaks down how rectal irrigations and full-thickness biopsies confirm aganglionosis and rule out other causes. Surgical Strategy: A discussion on when to perform a pull-through, mapping biopsies, and choosing between colostomy and ileostomy. Long-Term Management: Addressing the role of Botox for internal sphincter relaxation and educating families on home care and irrigations. This episode emphasizes the value of thoughtful, team-based decision-making and patient-tailored care in managing Hirschsprung disease.

It is not impossible—it is simply long. The best way to understand it is to follow the same structure used when working up a real patient: Diagnose. Investigate. Operate. This first part focuses on diagnosis: how to define the epilepsy, localise the seizure focus, recognise the syndrome and interpret the important EEG findings before discussing surgery. In this video, we cover four main areas: 1. Definitions Understand the key definitions and thresholds, including: • What epilepsy means • The difference between a single seizure and epilepsy • Focal, generalised and unknown onset • The definition of drug-resistant epilepsy • When a patient should be referred for surgical assessment A useful exam rule: Two seizures to diagnose. Two failed appropriate drugs to refer. 2. Seizure semiology and localisation Learn how the clinical sequence can help localise and lateralise the seizure focus. We discuss the classic features of: • Temporal lobe seizures • Frontal lobe seizures • Occipital lobe seizures • Todd’s paralysis 3. Named epilepsy syndromes We review the important syndromes and their classic EEG frequencies: • Absence epilepsy: 3 Hz spike-and-wave • Lennox–Gastaut syndrome: slow 1.5–2.5 Hz spike-and-wave • Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy: 4–6 Hz polyspike-and-wave • West syndrome: spasms, hypsarrhythmia and developmental regression • Hypothalamic hamartoma: gelastic seizures and precocious puberty 4. EEG patterns and electrodes We cover: • Normal posterior alpha rhythm • Frontal beta activity • Hypsarrhythmia • Burst suppression • Depth or stereo EEG • Subdural grids By the end of this video, you should have a clear framework for approaching the diagnosis section of an epilepsy surgery question. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13622 2026-07-29T21:23:07+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13589 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sZ_M1eLSsG8/hqdefault.jpg 2025 Pediatric Surgery Update Course: Top 10 Key Takeaways #9 In this highlight from the 12th Annual Update Course in Pediatric Surgery, Drs.

I cannot tell you how nice it was to be able to trust my surgeon 100%! By the time I had my upper blepharoplasty and chemical peel with Dr. Diana Ponsky, I had been getting treatments with her for years! Of course I was nervous going into a procedure, but I’ve been trusting my face with Dr. Ponsky for so long, so I felt totally confident!! So if you’ve thought about facial rejuvenation, but you’ve been nervous about making the appointment - just start small! Go in for injectables like Botox or filler or get laser treatments. Then you can work your way up to the surgical procedures or heavy chemical peels. 🫶🏻 Thank you Dr. Ponsky and team for all the support before, during, and after my treatments! 💙 https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13251 2026-06-25T18:37:41+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13636 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rT4bjnG3f_I/hqdefault.jpg Finding 1mm in the Brain | Functional Neurosurgery Explained – Episode 1 How do brain surgeons find a deep target only a few millimetres wide, buried more than 10 cm inside the brain – and hit it with less than 1 mm error? Welcome to Episode 1 of “Functional Neurosurgery, Explained”. In this episode, I break down the core problem behind all functional procedures: before we stimulate, ablate, or implant anything, we must know exactly WHERE we are in the nervous system. ▶️ In this video you will learn: • Why 1 mm of error can change a patient’s outcome in DBS and other functional procedures • How functional neurosurgeons turn anatomy into a 3D coordinate system (X, Y, Z) • Why skull landmarks and surface anatomy failed for deep targets • The importance of internal brain landmarks like the AC–PC line • How stereotactic atlases and MRI work together in modern targeting This series is designed for: • Medical students and trainees curious about functional neurosurgery • Neurology and neurosurgery residents • Neuroscience enthusiasts who want a clear, structured explanation • Any clinician who wants to understand how DBS targeting really works I keep the language simple, avoid unnecessary jargon, and focus on clear mental models you can reuse in the operating theatre or at the workstation. 📺 Series roadmap: • Episode 1 – Finding 1 mm in the Brain (localisation) • Episode 2 – Frames and the Geometry of Precision • Episode 3 – Neuromodulation vs Neuroablation • Future episodes – Targets, pathways, and real operative workflows If you find this useful: 👍 Like the video 📝 Leave a comment (tell me which topic you want next) 🔔 Subscribe to follow the full series ––––– Links and resources: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-amr-moursi/ #neurosurgery #functionalneurosurgery #DBS #brain #neuromodulation #Parkinsons #meded https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13636 2026-07-29T21:23:13+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13823 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/j_pnEALt1rY/hqdefault.jpg Colorectal Quiz: Episode 44 - HD Frozen Section In this episode of the Colorectal Quiz, Drs.

They are lost because we treat the writing as a separate job, saved for the very end, when the energy is gone and the blank page feels impossible. This short walkthrough shows a better order. The IMRaD-Reverse method lets the writing move hand in hand with your research, so each stage of the work hands you a section of the paper and the blank page never appears. You will see how to: - Write the Methods while you collect the data - Write the Results as the findings come in - Build the Discussion from the papers you used to validate your idea - Frame the Introduction once you already know what you found - Leave the Abstract for last Download the free one-page Reverse-Build Map, the same map I keep beside me on every paper: https://publicationaccelerator.io/imrad-reverse/ When you are ready to turn the method into a finished submission, join the free webinar where we build the full system together: https://publicationaccelerator.io/ — Dr. Amr Moursi Neurosurgeon · Functional & Epilepsy Fellow, United Kingdom FRCS (SN), MSc, MD (Res) Publication Accelerator · https://publicationaccelerator.io #clinicalresearch #medicalwriting #research #publishing #IMRaD https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13631 2026-07-29T21:23:12+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13484 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/PYIXOQnBys8/hqdefault.jpg Atresia Esofágica con Fístula Dr. Miguel Guelfand Clínica Las Condes Atresia Esofágica con Fístula Dr. Miguel Guelfand Clínica Las Condes https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13484 2026-06-26T16:27:56+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13632 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Zb7_i8btrJU/hqdefault.jpg Decoding DBS Target Selection in Parkinson's Disease | Functional Neurosurgery Explained – Episode 5 #Parkinsons #neurosurgery #DBS More than thirty percent of all D‑B‑S failures trace back to one mistake — the wrong patient, or the wrong target, chosen long before the operation even began. Welcome to Episode 5 of "Functional Neurosurgery, Explained." In this episode, I take you inside the single most important D‑B‑S decision — the one made in clinic, not in the operating theatre — and show you a framework I call TARGET: a six‑letter equation you can run on every Parkinson's patient who walks through your door. This is not a checklist. This is a way of thinking that tells you whether to operate, and where to put the lead. ▶️ In this video you will learn: Why target selection is the only step in D‑B‑S that cannot be corrected after surgery The five‑evaluation multidisciplinary workup that feeds every target decision The six letters of TARGET — True diagnosis, Anatomy of symptoms, Response to levodopa, Goal, Evaluation of the brain, and the Red lines — and why they function as gates, not as a score How to spot atypical parkinsonism — M‑S‑A, P‑S‑P, Lewy body dementia, Corticobasal Degeneration — before you commit a patient to a surgery that will not help them Why "describe the worst hour of your worst day" is the single most useful question in your D‑B‑S clinic What the thirty percent levodopa response threshold really means — and why D‑B‑S is a biological amplifier, not a generator When TARGET solves to S‑T‑N, when it solves to G‑P‑i, and when it solves to Vim — with three worked patient profiles How cognitive reserve and mood quietly decide whether you should operate at all — and which target is more forgiving when the brain is vulnerable The timing question — why the EARLYSTIM trial changed the conversation, and why both operating too late and operating too early are mistakes The six absolute red lines that collapse the entire equation to zero — and why a confident "no" protects the patient far more than a hesitant "yes" By the end, you will have a single framework https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13632 2026-07-29T21:23:12+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13827 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Dr9fJQmFZP0/hqdefault.jpg 2019 Chandler Lecture: Dr. Marc Levitt The Division of Pediatric Surgery hosts an annual lecture in honor of Dean Loren "Yank" Chandler.

Welcome to Episode 4 of "Functional Neurosurgery, Explained." In this episode, I use S‑T‑N D‑B‑S in Parkinson's disease as a model to trace exactly what a single electrical pulse does — from the axon membrane, to local field potentials, to whole‑network remodelling. This is not a textbook overview. This is a mechanistic framework you can carry into the operating room and the programming clinic. ▶️ In this video you will learn: Why D‑B‑S is not a reversible lesion — and what it actually is What the Volume of Tissue Activated really means, and why you are programming axons not grey matter What pathological beta oscillations are, why they cause bradykinesia and rigidity, and how high‑frequency stimulation disrupts them How the hyperdirect pathway carries antidromic spikes back to motor cortex within milliseconds Why the connectivity profile of your active contact matters more than its coordinates — and what connectomics means for your side‑effect profile Why dorsolateral S‑T‑N and ventromedial S‑T‑N produce completely different clinical outcomes How chronic stimulation induces synaptic plasticity and neurochemical change — and why dystonia takes months to respond The honest answer to the question: do we actually fully understand how D‑B‑S works? By the end, you will have a three‑layer mechanistic framework — fast electrical effects, network remodelling, and plasticity — that explains the clinical timeline of every D‑B‑S response you will ever see. This series is designed for: Medical students and trainees curious about functional neurosurgery Neurology and neurosurgery residents Neuroscience and biomedical engineering students Any clinician who wants to understand the rationale behind D‑B‑S programming I keep the language simple, avoid unnecessary jargon, and focus on clear mental models you can carry with you into clinical practice. 📺 Series roadmap: Episode 1 – Fin https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13633 2026-07-29T21:23:12+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13819 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/E_qzDnKVejg/hqdefault.jpg Colorectal Quiz Episode 33: Cloaca Exstrophy Dr. Payam Saadai joins Dr. Marc Levitt and Dr. Jason Frischer to discuss the management of cloacal exstrophy covering traditional, and newer techniques.

Key Highlights: Early Irrigation Training in Hirschsprung’s Disease: Some centers are beginning irrigation competency even before ostomy takedown, helping families and patients adapt earlier and potentially reducing post-operative enterocolitis risk. Advances in Surgical Technology: Innovations such as robotic-assisted surgery and ICG fluorescence imaging are improving visualization of blood supply during pull-through procedures, helping surgeons reduce complications like leaks and ischemia. New Diagnostic Concepts: High-frequency ultrasound may help measure bowel wall muscle thickness to identify aganglionic segments, potentially supporting or supplementing traditional biopsy-based diagnosis. Understanding Enterocolitis Risk: Emerging research suggests that reduced mucus protection in proximal bowel segments and mechanical stress on the bowel wall may contribute to microbial imbalance and breakdown of the intestinal barrier. The Power of Nursing and Multidisciplinary Care: Dedicated colorectal nursing programs and global case discussions highlighted how long-term outcomes depend not only on surgical technique but also on ongoing bowel management, education, and coordinated care. Evolving Techniques for Anorectal Malformations: New procedures such as perineal-preserving PSARP and posterior rectal advancement anoplasty (PRAA) aim to reduce complications while improving functional outcomes. Transition to Adult Care: Experts emphasized the need for stronger transition programs and multidisciplinary teams—including gynecology, urology, and sexual health specialists—to support patients with congenital colorectal conditions into https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13817 2026-07-29T23:10:59+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13828 2026-07-31 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cueIydjyjS8/hqdefault.jpg Time for some patient driven change | Marc Levitt | TEDxColumbus Patient driven care - how a patient made me a better doctor, how a collaborative process improves care, and why this is so rare and hard to achieve in medicine.

Topic: Flexible Endoscopy Use of transoral incisionless fundoplication for recurrent reflux after foregut surgery. Jessica Ardila-Gatas, MD, Joshua Landreneau, MD, Jeffrey Ponsky, MD, John Rodriguez, MD. Cleveland Clinic Transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF) is a novel endoscopic procedure for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). In addition to being less invasive, this procedure may hold particular utility in patients with prior foregut surgery as the increased difficulty and risks of revisional surgery can be minimized through this endoscopic approach. We now present two patients with prior foregut surgery and intractable GERD who successfully underwent TIF. They were discharged to home on the same day of surgery while tolerating a liquid diet. Endoscopic antireflux procedures such as TIF are safe and technically feasible even in patients with prior foregut surgeries. https://vimeo.com/1109334192 2026-07-29T22:56:55+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13733 2026-07-29 monthly 0.7 StayCurrent Forums Jeffrey Ponsky, Professor Emeritus of Surgery and Nathaniel Soper, Chairman of Surgery, go back to the basics on Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy on this episode of the StayCurrent Forum. https://vimeo.com/699600153 2026-07-29T22:56:56+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13734 2026-07-29 monthly 0.7 StayCurrent Forums Trailer GlobalCastMD is revealing brand new content that is different from our normal youtube videos or podcasts that take a deep dive into Pediatric Surgery!

Lizzy Lee from Cincinnati Children's discusses a study examining the link between maternal hyperglycemia during pregnancy and adult offspring overweight and obesity. The research found that higher and more variable maternal blood sugar, especially in the third trimester, was linked to increased adult obesity risk in offspring. Interestingly, birth weight did not fully mediate this long-term effect but had its own independent association with adult BMI, suggesting a more complex interplay of factors. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13613 2026-07-28T16:44:29+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13612 2026-07-28 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ENpdjcf3J-E/hqdefault.jpg Update Course Rewind 2025: Updates in NEC Management Narrated by Lizzy Lee, PA-C & Maggie Koenig, this podcast, a rewind from the 2025 Pediatric Surgery Update Course, delves into crucial updates in Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) management.

Dr. Lizzy Lee from Cincinnati Children's discusses a national multidisciplinary survey on the availability and use of bowel ultrasound (BUS) for diagnosing necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). The study found that while BUS is available in many Level 4 NICUs, routine utilization is inconsistent due to barriers like lack of standardized protocols, limited provider training, and uncertainty in guiding treatment decisions. This article highlights the need for better evidence, standardized guidelines, and improved clinician training to enhance BUS adoption for NEC.

Methods: A survey of neonatologists, surgeons, and radiologists at Children's Hospitals' Neonatal Consortium (CHNC) sites. Quantitative data were analyzed descriptively; open-ended responses underwent thematic analysis. Results: In total, 104 respondents from 42/46 institutions participated. BUS was available at 83% of level IV NICU sites, with 64% reporting 24/7 availability. However, only 42% of affiliated level III NICUs had BUS available. BUS was primarily used alongside radiographs in cases of diagnostic uncertainty and variably used to guide surgical decisions. Radiologists frequently used protocols while neonatologists and surgeons reported limited training and few institutional guidelines. Key barriers included lack of standardization, inadequate training, and unclear clinical utility. Conclusion: BUS is increasingly available in level IV NICUs but less so in level III NICUs.

The research compares surgical and catheter-based interventions, revealing high recurrence rates for both approaches. It emphasizes the need for ongoing surveillance and multidisciplinary care for affected children. Daiji Takajo, Paul J Critser, Awais Ashfaq, Russel Hirsch Background: Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a rare but serious condition in children, often requiring surgical or catheter-based interventions. The initial optimal treatment strategy remains unclear due to disease complexity, progression, and high rates of recurrence. Methods: In this retrospective, single-center study, we identified children with primary or secondary PVS from a cardiac catheterization and surgical database between 2015 and 2023. Patients with single ventricle physiology were excluded. Demographics and outcomes were compared between patients who underwent catheter-based intervention only and those who underwent at least one surgical pulmonary vein repair, with or without subsequent catheter-based reintervention. Reintervention following surgical repair was assessed using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Results: Among 56 children with biventricular physiology and PVS (33 males, 59%), 16 (29%) underwent at least one surgical repair at a median age of 9 months (IQR 4-20), while 40 (71%) were managed with catheter-based interventions alone. Surgical repair was more frequently performed in patients with bilateral or complex disease, particularly those without prematurity or with coexisting congenital heart defects requiring open-heart surgery. Over time, catheter-based approaches became increasingly preferred. Overall, 92% of surgical patients required reintervention, most within the first year. Mortality did not significantly differ between groups (p = 0.294). In the surgical group, elevated right ventricular/systemic systolic pressure ratio (HR: 1.25, p = 0.04 https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13566 2026-07-09T14:04:01+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/983 2026-07-08 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/983/thumbnail_1111_2019-01-11_16-41-46.jpg Rectal Prolapse Rapid Fire: Update Course 2015 Dr. Jason Frischer of Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center presents on rectal prolapse. spaces/1/content/983/file_1111_2019-01-11_16-41-46.mp4 2019-01-11T16:41:46+00:00 4 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11867 2026-07-08 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/11867/file_11867_1_1777057061336.jpg Update Course Rewind 2025: Perineal Body–Preserving PSARP: The New Standard? In this Update Course Rewind from the 13th Annual Update Course in Pediatric Surgery, Drs. Nelson Rosen, Annie Le-Nguyen, Elizabeth Speck, Aaron Garrison, and Jamie Harris explore a key surgical debate: classic PSARP vs. the perineal body–preserving approach for anorectal malformations.Key Highlights:Technique Comparison:The perineal body–preserving PSARP is gaining traction, with many surgeons adopting it as an alternative to the traditional approach, while classic PSARP remains widely used.Early Outcomes Data:Recent studies (2023) show promising results for the perineal body–preserving technique, including no dehiscence, no prolapse, and relatively low rates of anal stricture requiring revision.Postoperative Recovery:Patients undergoing the perineal body–preserving approach may benefit from shorter hospital stays, with many discharged as early as postoperative day one.Technical Considerations:While effective, the approach can be technically more challenging, particularly when identifying anterior anatomy and protecting the posterior vaginal wall.Flexibility in Approach:Surgeons emphasized that conversion to a standard PSARP is always appropriate if there is any uncertainty about anatomy or safety during the procedure.This session highlights that while newer techniques show promise, surgeon judgment and adaptability remain critical to achieving safe and effective outcomes. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11867 2026-04-24T18:38:08+00:00 2 PSARP pediatric surgery pedsurg perineal body–preserving PSARP anal stricture Postoperative Recovery Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13558 2026-07-06 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/13558/file_13558_1_1783346533435.jpg Update Course Rewind 2025: New Technologies for Central Line Management This video explores innovative technologies for central line management, focusing on solutions for blocked superior vena cava (SVC).

Because the International Neuroblastoma Staging System (INSS) is a postsurgical staging system, a new clinical staging system was required for the INRG pretreatment risk classification system.Methods: To stage patients before any treatment, the INRG Task Force, consisting of neuroblastoma experts from Australia/New Zealand, China, Europe, Japan, and North America, developed a new INRG staging system (INRGSS) based on clinical criteria and image-defined risk factors (IDRFs). To investigate the impact of IDRFs on outcome, survival analyses were performed on 661 European patients with INSS stages 1, 2, or 3 disease for whom IDRFs were known.Results: In the INGRSS, locoregional tumors are staged L1 or L2 based on the absence or presence of one or more of 20 IDRFs, respectively. Metastatic tumors are defined as stage M, except for stage MS, in which metastases are confined to the skin, liver, and/or bone marrow in children younger than 18 months of age. Within the 661-patient cohort, IDRFs were present (ie, stage L2) in 21% of patients with stage 1, 45% of patients with stage 2, and 94% of patients with stage 3 disease. Patients with INRGSS stage L2 disease had significantly lower 5-year event-free survival than those with INRGSS stage L1 disease (78% +/- 4% v 90% +/- 3%; P = .0010).Conclusion: Use of the new staging (INRGSS) and risk classification (INRG) of neuroblastoma will greatly facilitate the comparison of risk-based clinical trials conducted in different regions of the world. spaces/1/content/11727/file_11727_1_1774378472922.mp4 2026-03-24T18:54:32+00:00 2 International Neuroblastoma Risk Group INRG IDRF image-defined risk factors metastatic tumors metastases bone marrow neuroblastoma pediatric surgery some4pedsurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/4315 2026-06-29 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/4315/thumbnail_5550_2021-07-09_22-04-58.jpg Open CVP Catheter Insertion Internal jugular vein Cutdown By Dr. Tamer Ashraf...

In this Update Course Rewind from the 13th Annual Update Course in Pediatric Surgery, Dr. Jamie Harris—joined by Drs. Nelson Rosen, Annie Le-Nguyen, Aaron Garrison, and Elizabeth Speck—explores one of the most debated questions in colorectal surgery: when is the optimal timing for PSARP in patients with rectovestibular fistula?Key Highlights:Early vs. Delayed PSARP:Both early repair (during the newborn admission) and delayed repair (1–3 months of age) are shown to be equally safe, with no significant differences in complications, reoperations, or readmissions.What the Data Shows:Recent multi-institutional studies (NSQIP and PCPLC) found no difference in 30-day outcomes between early and delayed repairs, reinforcing that timing alone does not determine success.Role of Dilations:Initial dilations can help decompress the bowel, but should be limited (e.g., up to 7 Hegar) to avoid fibrosis and preserve optimal conditions for future repair.Clinical Tradeoffs:Delayed repair: May increase technical difficulty due to fibrosis or rectal distention if not well managedEarly repair: Avoids additional hospitalizations and reduces burden on families, especially those facing access or financial barriersWhat Really Matters:Decision-making should be individualized—taking into account patient size, comorbidities, surgeon experience, and family logistics, rather than a strict timeline.This session highlights that while timing remains flexible, thoughtful, patient-centered decision-making is key to achieving the best outcomes.For more information on the Colorectal team at Cincinnati Children's, visit here. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11860 2026-04-20T19:41:19+00:00 1 delayed repair early repair colorectal colorectal surgery NSQIP PCPLC bowel dilation dilate comorbidities Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13233 2026-06-25 monthly 0.7 Dr Alexander Chiu Welcome-Chair Welcome to the Otolaryngology Website https://vimeo.com/105986039 2026-06-25T18:26:27+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/13234 2026-06-25 monthly 0.7 Dr Alexander Chiu Welcome-Chief Welcome to the Otolaryngology Website https://vimeo.com/105985757 2026-06-25T18:26:27+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/354 2026-06-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/354/thumbnail_383_2018-09-16_15-21-21.jpg Long Gap Esophageal Atresia – How I Do It: Update Course 2018 At the 6th Annual Pediatric Surgery Update Course, Drs Daniel von Allmen, David van der Zee, Russell Jennings, Steve Rothenberg, Mac Harmon, Whit Holcomb, Todd Ponsky and Rachel Hankediscuss long gap esophageal atresia.

Lizzy Lee from Cincinnati Children's discusses a pertinent study on the utility of invasive genetic testing, specifically Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH), prior to fetal surgery. The research questions whether FISH provides additional actionable information when non-invasive screening methods like ultrasounds and cell-free DNA already indicate a low risk for aneuploidy. The findings suggest that for carefully selected low-risk pregnancies, non-invasive screening may be sufficient, potentially avoiding the FISH procedure. Ethan Lorence, Katelyn Seither, Hua He, Kara B Markham, Beatrix Wong Objective: Current inclusion criteria for fetal surgery at most centers include the absence of multiple major anomalies and a normal chromosome analysis or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for aneuploidy. We evaluated the concordance of FISH with non-invasive screening methodologies to determine if invasive genetic testing provides additional information on fetal surgery candidacy. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on 963 pregnancies evaluated for fetal surgery at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Fetal Care Center between July 1, 2018 and July 31, 2023 for genetic testing results, fetal imaging, and surgical candidacy. Results: FISH was concordant with screening results in 100% of pregnancies whose imaging and cell-free fetal DNA screening suggested a fetus at low risk for trisomy 21, trisomy 18, trisomy 13, and sex chromosome aneuploidies. Pregnancies with multiple congenital anomalies were significantly more likely to have abnormal genetic testing compared to pregnancies with isolated anomalies (52% vs. 17%, P = 0.0009). Conclusions: In this study cohort, FISH did not provide additional information for the risk-benefit analysis of fetal surgery and introduced additional risk to the pregnancy due to the need for invasive fetal DNA collection. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12688 2026-06-24T15:26:14+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12687 2026-06-24 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/jVfLOhtC6Po/hqdefault.jpg Validation of an anorectal malformation trainer - Can a high-fidelity model simulate real life? This video discusses the critical challenge of maintaining surgical skills for rare procedures like posterior sagittal anorectoplasties (PSARP) due to low case volumes in pediatric surgery. It introduces a novel high-fidelity, 3D-printed PSARP simulator developed by researchers from leading children's hospitals. The simulator, which accurately replicates complex anatomy and haptics, has been validated as an effective teaching tool that reliably differentiates expert from novice surgeons. Claire A Ostertag-Hill, Prathima Nandivada, Aaron P Garrison, Richard J Wood, Michael G Silver, Gregory Loan, Stephen F Wilson, Belinda Hsi Dickie Background: The reconstruction of anorectal malformations (ARMs) is a technical but reproducible operation. The average number of ARM repairs performed by U.S. pediatric surgery trainees is 15 with recertifying pediatric surgeons performing an average of only 2 ARM repairs annually. The aim of this study was to investigate the validity of a surgical simulator that replicates the steps of repair. Study design: A high-fidelity ARM simulator was designed using digital modeling software packages and fabricated using 3D-printing, hand-sculpting, and multi-stage silicone injection molding techniques. A cross-sectional observational study was performed at an international surgical meeting, recruiting 27 surgeons (n = 11 experts, n = 16 novice). Each participant performed a posterior sagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP) on the model and completed a questionnaire on the model's realism and didactic value. Each session of the simulation was recorded and independently assessed by 3 experienced pediatric colorectal surgeons (raters) using a standardized general skills (OSATS) and PSARP step-specific assessment tools. Results: All items, including anatomical structures, haptics, and procedural steps, were evaluated as significantly better than neutral (p-values 0.003 to <0.0001). Significant differences between the groups were observed for multiple ite https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12687 2026-06-24T13:55:22+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5783 2026-06-23 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/5783/thumbnail_5783_2022-08-24_15-05-11.jpg 200% Accountability Short Version 200% Accountability Short Version spaces/1/content/5783/file_7201_2022-08-24_15-05-11.mp4 2022-08-24T15:05:11+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/4074 2026-06-23 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/4074/thumbnail_5304_2021-05-25_12-42-01.jpg Did you Know 10 Notifications Did you Know you can change the notifications you receive from the app? spaces/1/content/4074/file_5304_2021-05-25_12-42-01.mp4 2021-05-25T12:42:01+00:00 3 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1376 2026-06-23 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1376/thumbnail_1557_2019-05-08_13-59-56.jpg Duodenal Atresia Repair by Dr. Karen Diefenbach Dr Karen Diefenbach at Nationwide Children's demonstrates a laparoscopic duodenal atresia repair https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1376 2019-05-08T13:59:56+00:00 114 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3585 2026-06-23 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3585/thumbnail_4655_2021-01-25_22-00-53.jpg Thoracoscopic Aortopexy by, Dr. Carlos García Hernández This is a wonderful video of Dr. Carlos García Hernández in which he demonstrates the thoracoscopic aortopexy for tracheomalacia in a child.

The study found that babies in the RPM group went home earlier, experienced better growth, and had a significantly lower risk of unplanned ER visits or hospital admissions. This suggests that pairing NG tube feeds with RPM could help fragile babies thrive at home while reducing unexpected hospitalizations. Rebecca D Henkel, Kristin Melton, Tanya Cahill, Melissa House, Julisa Muñoz, Christa Tabacaru, Chunyan Liu, Shelley R Ehrlich, Heather C Kaplan Objective: To examine whether discharge with remote patient monitoring (RPM) is associated with improved outcomes among infants discharged from the neonatal intensive care unit with a nasogastric tube (NGT). Study design: This was a retrospective cohort study of infants discharged with an NGT from the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center neonatal intensive care unit from 2015 to 2022. Infants were divided into pre-RPM and RPM cohorts. Differences in clinical characteristics, weight at follow-up, and unplanned health care utilization were evaluated using multivariable generalized linear regression models. Results: There were 385 eligible patients (n = 139 pre-RPM, n = 246 RPM). Infants discharged with RPM had higher rates of prematurity. The RPM group was discharged at an earlier postmenstrual age (43.00 vs 44.12 weeks, P = .0102) and had more favorable change in weight z-score at follow-up (0.21 [0.03, 0.4] at 3 months, 0.34 [0.09, 0.58)] at 6 months). The risk of unplanned admissions or emergency department visits was 53% lower in the RPM group than in the pre-RPM group (risk ratio = 0.47 [0.28, 0.79]). Conclusions: Patients discharged with an NGT plus RPM were discharged at earlier postmenstrual age, had more favorable growth trajectory, and had fewer unplanned health care encounters, indicating that discharge with NGT fee https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12222 2026-06-18T14:15:45+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6488 2026-06-15 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6488/thumbnail_6488_2023-03-14_22-00-12.jpg Laparoscopic assisted pull-through for Hirschsprung's Disease Laparoscopic assisted pull-through for Hirschsprung's Disease https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/43c25000-69f3-4fdb-b3da-ee862dcb5668/AppleHLS1/2d2971ab06e5f26808010f0f84af25bc.m3u8 2023-03-14T22:00:12+00:00 6 Medical Education yes Colorectal Channel no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12193 2026-06-12 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/MTZszpMa85s/hqdefault.jpg Levonorgestrel Intrauterine Device Placement in Uterine Anomalies: A Case Series This video breaks down a case series discussing levonorgestrel IUD placement in patients with uterine anomalies, challenging current CDC guidelines that classify IUD use in distorted uterine cavities as contraindicated.

Hagemanb,d ∙ Misel Trajanovsk ∙ Suzanne Jackson-Fleurus ∙ Fiona Newall ∙ Sebastian K. KingBackground Routine post operative anal dilatations have been standard practice in the management of anorectal malformations (ARM) since 1982. Recent studies, however, have questioned their necessity and effectiveness. This systematic review aimed to synthesise the available literature pertaining to the effectiveness of routine post operative dilatations in preventing anal strictures following ARM surgery. Methods A systematic search of Cochrane Library, PubMed, Medline, and EMBASE databases was conducted for English-language articles published between January 1990 and December 2023. Studies reporting on children with ARM who underwent reconstructive surgery, followed by anal dilatations, were included. The primary outcome was the development of anal strictures. Results Seven studies met the inclusion criteria. Of the 400 patients, 311 (77.7 %) patients received routine post operative dilatations (RPD). Stricture rates ranged widely, with the Peña protocol, considered standard practice, resulting in stricture rates between 0 % and 39 %. Alternative approaches showed similar outcomes: daily non-Hegar dilatations (using digital manipulation or candles) resulted in stricture rates of 0–22 %, while weekly dilatations performed by surgeons showed rates of 15–18 %. In the single randomised controlled trial that included a non-dilatation group, comparable stricture rates were observed between patients who received dilatations (21 %) and those who did not (24 %). The heterogeneity in study designs, populations, and outcome measures limited direct comparisons. Conclusion While RPDs have been the standard of care, the available evidence suggests that their universal necessity may be questioned. Alternative approaches appear to achieve comparable outcomes, however the variability in available evidence and lack of large-scale randomised trials both highlight the spaces/1/content/11031/file_11031_1_1758600345913.mp4 2025-09-23T04:05:45+00:00 2 ARM Pena protocol anal stricture Pediatric surgery anal dilatation anorectal malformation colorectal post operative Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1515 2026-06-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1515/thumbnail_1755_2019-07-09_16-00-13.jpg Sacral Nerve Stimulator Placement: A Novel Surgical Navigation Tool for...

Nelson Rosen, Annie Le-Nguyen, Aaron Garrison, Jamie Harris, and Elizabeth Speck discuss one of the most common questions in Hirschsprung disease management: when is the best time to perform a pull-through procedure?Key Highlights:Neonatal vs Delayed Pull-Through:A recent PCPLC retrospective study compared neonatal pull-throughs to delayed procedures and found no significant difference in enterocolitis rates, postoperative complications, or long-term fecal continence outcomes.Timing Remains Flexible:The neonatal group underwent surgery at a median age of 11 days, while delayed repairs occurred closer to 3 months—highlighting the wide variation in current practice.Importance of Home Irrigations:Panelists emphasized that family ability to perform effective rectal irrigations is often more important than patient age when determining timing of surgery.Preventing Enterocolitis:Families who are well-trained in washouts can help prevent dangerous complications like enterocolitis and perforation by maintaining adequate decompression at home.Patient- and Family-Centered Decision Making:Factors such as caregiver comfort, access to follow-up, and successful irrigation education should guide operative timing rather than a strict protocol.This session highlights that successful Hirschsprung management depends not only on surgical timing, but also on empowering families with the skills needed for safe home care. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12009 2026-05-07T18:52:54+00:00 2 Delayed Pull-Through Neonatal Pull-Through Hirschsprung Disease HD Enterocolitis irrigation Hirschsprung management surgery pediatric surgery Home Irrigations Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11939 2026-06-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/rothenberg/thumbnails/Malone_Mitrofanoff_NCH.jpg Malone & Mitrofanoff NCH Surgical content by Dr. Steve Rothenberg — Abdominal Surgery rothenberg/videos/Malone_Mitrofanoff_NCH.mp4 2026-05-05T20:41:54+00:00 Abdominal Surgery Pediatric Surgery Rothenberg Surgical Video Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1095 2026-06-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1095/thumbnail_1223_2019-01-11_16-42-06.jpg Posterior Sagittal Anorectaplasty in a Female: Pediatric Colorectal...

Ullrich ∙ Annie Le-Nguyen ∙ Monica Holder ∙ Randi Wittenberg ∙ Allison Caja ∙ Aaron P. Garrison ∙ Beth A. Rymeski ∙ Nelson G. Rosen ∙ Jason S. FrischerPurpose The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease in children under six years of age, known as very early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEO-IBD) has been increasing. VEO-IBD has distinct clinical phenotypes, treatment response and outcomes, however the role of surgical intervention remains poorly understood. This study examines surgical management in this population. Methods We conducted a retrospective review of patients diagnosed with VEO-IBD at a single institution between January 2008 and May 2024. Data on demographics, clinical characteristics, and measures of disease severity were collected and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results A total of 121 patients met criteria for inclusion. The majority of patients were diagnosed with a Crohn's disease phenotype (n = 74, 61.2 %). Disease was most frequently isolated to the colon (n = 76, 62.8 %) or ileocolic (n = 38, 31.4 %). Approximately half of the patients (n = 60, 49.6 %) had previously received treatment at another facility. Surgical intervention was required in 26 patients (21.5 %). Of those who had surgery, 69.2 % had an ostomy created, 34.6 % had a bowel resection, 26.9 % had an anorectal exam under anesthesia. Factors significantly associated with operative intervention included Black race (P = 0.011), diagnosis before one year of age (P = 0.022), height velocity ≤ 2SD (P = 0.005), perianal disease (0.005) and disease severity (P = 0.019). Notably, family history (P = 0.226), positive genetic findings (P = 0.459), disease classification (P = 0.991), and disease location were not significantly linked with the need for surgical intervention. Among children who had a bowel resection or stoma creation, there was no statistically significant difference in post-operative height velocity or medication usage.

In this Update Course Rewind from the 13th Annual Update Course in Pediatric Surgery, Drs. Jamie Harris, Elizabeth Speck, Aaron Garrison, Nelson Rosen, and Annie Le-Nguyen revisit a long-standing postoperative practice in colorectal surgery: are routine anal dilations after PSARP truly necessary?Key Highlights:Questioning a Surgical Tradition:For decades, postoperative anal dilations have been considered standard after PSARP—but emerging studies and clinician experience are challenging whether they should be universally required.Emotional Impact on Families:Panelists discussed the significant anxiety and stress dilations can create for caregivers, including concerns about harming the repair and reports of PTSD-like experiences for both families and patients.What the Data Shows:Recent institutional reviews comparing dilation protocols versus no dilations found similar rates of neoanal stricture and reoperation, suggesting mandatory dilations may not always improve outcomes.Alternative Approaches:Heineke-Mikulicz anoplasty (HMA) was highlighted as a safe, minimally invasive outpatient option for managing strictures instead of prolonged dilation regimens.Why Some Surgeons Still Dilate:Many surgeons continue postoperative dilations in neonates, particularly in healthcare systems where rapid access to elective revision procedures may be limited.Individualized Decision-Making:Patient age, anatomy, caregiver comfort, access to follow-up care, and institutional resources all play a role in deciding whether postoperative dilations are appropriate.This session emphasizes that postoperative care after PSARP may not need a one-size-fits-all approach—and that family-centered decision-making is becoming increasingly important in colorectal surgery. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11895 2026-05-01T20:08:01+00:00 1 PSARP pediatric surgery colorectal colorectal surgery classic PSARP some4pedsurg Heineke-Mikulicz anoplasty HMA routine anal dilations minimally invasive Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/415 2026-06-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/415/thumbnail_444_2018-09-16_15-21-25.jpg Pediatric Colorectal Contraversies Part III: Pediatric Colorectal...

No established evaluation exists to determine the patency of the pre-pubertal Müllerian system. Saline pertubation (SP)-- cannulating the fallopian tubes and injecting sterile saline-- can be performed during other indicated abdominal procedures. This study sought to assess the sensitivity and specificity of SP in predicting future patency of the Müllerian system among females with cloaca. Methods: A retrospective review of patients with cloaca at a single institution from 2005 to 2023 was conducted (IRB#2023-0617). Menstrual patency was defined by the absence of obstruction by imaging or symptoms within 2 years of menarche, or between ages 9-13 years in patients with amenorrhea. Results: 255 patients with cloaca were reviewed. In those who met inclusion criteria by age or pubertal status, 79 Müllerian structures underwent SP in 52 patients. 75 structures were found to be patent, and four were found to be obstructed by SP. Four structures with patency on SP later developed obstruction. One structure without patency by SP had subsequent patency. SP was found to have a sensitivity of 95.9 % (95 % CI of 88.6-99.1 %) and specificity of 20 % (95 % CI of 0.5 %-71.6 %) for menstrual patency. One patient, patent on SP, developed a tuboovarian abscess 10 years after intervention and two patients patent on SP developed hydrosalpinx 8-10 years later. In 150 cloaca patients who did not undergo SP, three patients developed tuboovarian abscesses, and 22.8 % (29/127) of unobstructed patients developed hydrosalpinx. Conclusions: SP among individuals with cloaca has a high sensitivity to identify those who are low risk for obstruction. spaces/1/content/11277/file_11277_1_1764082484260.mp4 2025-11-25T14:54:44+00:00 saline perturbation puberty cloaca Mullerian Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1097 2026-06-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1097/thumbnail_1225_2019-01-11_16-42-06.jpg Anorectal Malformation Radiology: Pediatric Colorectal Controversies 2014 Drs Marc Levitt, Rama Jayanthi, Carlo Di Lorenzo, and Karen Diefenbach host a half day symposiumhighlighting new concepts and controversies in pediatric colorectal anomalies, primarily focusing on anorectal malformations.Discussion is based aroundcases presentations and covers the following topics:prenatal diagnosis, fetal ultrasound, fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), imaging of the spine and sacrum, sacral ratio, utility ofprone cross table lateral X-ray, invertogram, ultrasound, need for standardized protocol for use of ultrasound in anorectal malformation. https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/22115327-0b49-49ff-bf60-6c1e1310f143/AppleHLS1/4e55891962cab9d7102bd5626ed6fae4.m3u8 2019-01-11T16:42:06+00:00 5 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/762 2026-06-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/762/thumbnail_870_2018-11-17_00-05-45.jpg Technique: Laparoscopic-Assisted Pull-through for Imperforate Anus Laparoscopic-Assisted Pull-through for high imperforate anus by Dr. Steven Rothenberg. spaces/1/content/762/file_870_2018-11-17_00-05-45.mp4 2018-11-17T00:05:45+00:00 4 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12170 2026-06-09 monthly 0.7 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JgZTVWnr3O8/hqdefault.jpg Complications and Long-Term Outcomes of Patients With Cloacal Malformation After Bowel Neovagina... Dr. Megan Reed Ivaturi from Nationwide Children's Hospital discusses a recent study published in the Journal of Pediatric Surgery on the long-term outcomes of bowel neovagina creation for patients with cloacal malformations. The study evaluated 40 patients, comparing outcomes between small bowel and colonic neovaginas, and highlighted the importance of long-term follow-up for function, stenosis, and quality of life. Kristine L Griffin, Wendy Jo Svetanoff, Megan A Read, Shruthi Srinivas, Geri Hewitt, Richard J Wood, Chelsea A Kebodeaux Introduction: Up to 60 % of patients with a cloacal malformation have a Mullerian anomaly. In cases where the vagina is absent or cannot reach the perineum, an intestinal neovagina is often created. The complications and outcomes of this are not well described. We aimed to describe the gynecologic outcomes of patients who underwent neovagina creation followed at our institution. Methods: A single institution retrospective review of patients ≥8 years old with cloacal malformation who underwent intestinal neovagina creation was performed. Demographics, surgical history, short-term complications, and long-term gynecologic outcomes were assessed. Results: Forty patients were included. The median age at neovagina creation was 3.95 years (IQR 1.40, 7.61). Twelve patients (30 %) had uterine agenesis. Neovagina was colonic in 27 (67.5 %) and small bowel in 12 (30 %). Median age at most recent follow up was 9.7 years (IQR 7.6, 14.1). There was no difference in 30-day complications, incidence of vaginal prolapse, introital stenosis, or graft stenosis between those undergoing small bowel vs colonic neovagina. Two patients had documented menstrual obstruction, and 11 patients reported bothersome vaginal discharge. Of those with neovagina prolapse, one small bowel (8.3 %) and two colonic grafts (7.4 %) required prolapse repair. One small bowel (8.3 %) and 7 colonic (26 %) patients underwent introitoplasty for stenosis.

This video details a retrospective study from Nationwide Children's Hospital exploring the safety and efficacy of long-acting triamcinolone acetonide (TAC) injections combined with dilation for post-operative strictures. The study focuses on pediatric patients who underwent surgery for anorectal malformation or Hirschsprung disease, aiming to reduce the need for repeat surgical procedures. Findings indicate high rates of stricture resolution with low short-term morbidity. Megan A Read, Brenna Rachwal, Liese C C Pruitt, Andrew C Sager, Alessandra C Gasior, Ihab Halaweish, Richard J Wood Purpose: Anastomotic stricture leads to significant post-operative morbidity for patients with anorectal malformations (ARM) and Hirschsprung Disease (HSCR). The injection of the long-acting steroid triamcinolone acetonide (TAC) after stricture dilation has been shown to decrease stricture recurrence and interventions needed to achieve resolution but has yet to be studied in patients with ARM or HSCR. Methods: We performed a single-institution retrospective review of patients with ARM or HSCR who underwent TAC injection with dilation for anastomotic stricture. Clinical history, procedural details, and post-injection outcomes were assessed. Results: From 2018 to 2024, 50 patients, 30 with ARM and 20 with HSCR, underwent dilation of anastomotic stricture followed by TAC injection. Stricture resolution was observed in 21 patients (70.0 %) with ARM and 17 patients with HSCR (85.0 %) after dilation with TAC injection. The median number of injections to achieve resolution was 1 in both groups, with a maximum of 5 in both diagnosis groups. Nine patients (30.0 %) with ARM and 2 with HSCR (10.0 %) ultimately required surgery to achieve resolution. There were no significant differences in clinical characteristics between those who required surgery and those who did not within each diagnosis group. There were no intraoperative complications; 30-day complication rate was 2.2 %.

The research, a single-institution retrospective study of 208 patients, reveals that while insurance type and childhood opportunity index had no impact, factors like food insecurity, missed appointments, and unmarried parents were associated with incontinent reconstruction. Interestingly, patients traveling from out of state were more likely to receive continent diversions. This highlights the critical role social stability and access to follow-up play in surgical decision-making and sustainable patient care. Kristine L Griffin, Jeremy M Lun, Alexandra Bain, Shruthi Srinivas, Ihab Halaweish, Richard J Wood, Daniel DaJusta, Molly E Fuchs Objective: To examine if social determinants of health (SDH) are associated with the type of urological reconstruction performed in patients with neurogenic bladder secondary to myelomeningocele and anorectal malformations. Methods: A single-institution retrospective review was performed in children with incontinent urinary reconstruction (IUR) or continent urinary reconstruction (CUR) and a diagnosis of myelomeningocele, anorectal malformation, or spinal cord pathology from years 2014-2021. Demographic, clinical, and SDH data were collected and compared to reconstruction type. Categorical variables were analyzed via Fisher Exact Test. Ordinal variables were analyzed using Cochran-Armitage Test for Trend. Results: From 2014 to 2021, 208 patients underwent urological reconstruction. Patients had a diagnosis of anorectal malformation (32.2%), myelomeningocele (30.8%), spinal cord pathology (18.8%), other diagnosis (18.3%), or cloacal exstrophy (4.8%). Of the cohort, 154 (74%) had a CUR, and 54 (26%) underwent IUR. Median age at reconstruction was higher in those who underwent CUR (6.7years [IQR 5.3, 9.8]) than for IUR (5.6 [IQR 1.5, 10.5]) (P=.01).

Lizzy Lee from Cincinnati Children's discusses a study on hemodialysis outcomes in infants after congenital heart surgery (CHS). Approximately 1% of infants undergoing CHS develop severe acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring dialysis, with a 1-year survival rate of 46% compared to 94% for those who don't need dialysis. The study highlights that hospitals with more frequent dialysis use showed significantly higher hospital and one-year survival rates, indicating the importance of specialized center experience for these critical cases.

Therefore, we performed a multi-institutional analysis for infants requiring hemodialysis post-CHS. The Pediatric Health Information System (PHIS) was queried for infants undergoing CHS from 2004 to 2024. Intermittent hemodialysis (iHD) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) were included, patients undergoing pre-CHS dialysis or post-CHS peritoneal dialysis during admission were excluded. High HD use centers were in the top 10% of HD usage while low HD use centers were all other centers. After CHS, 1% (332/31,634) of infants received a form of hemodialysis (HD); 61% (204/332) received CRRT, 11% (37/332) received iHD, 11% (36/332) received both, and 17% (55/332) had an unknown type. HD was provided in 2% (220/12,898) of neonates (< 31days-old at CHS) vs. 1% (112/18,736) of infants 31-365 days old (p < 0.001). One-year survival was lower in the dialysis vs. non-dialysis cohort (46% vs. 94%, p < 0.0001).

Loftus, Faraz A. Khan, Ana R. Do, Janice A. Taylor, Philip A. Efron, Shawn D. Larson, Steven L. Raymond Background: The Surgical Infection Society (SIS) guidelines recommend against the use of surgical antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) for low-risk patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomies. Methods: Using National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) data, 5440 pediatric patients were identified who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy from 2021 to 2022. Patients who had immunodeficiency, active malignancy, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification 3e5, procedure indicated for infection, emergent procedure, received intravenous antibiotics before the prophylaxis window, or missing SAP data were excluded. Results: 3959 patients were included in the analysis. Among these patients, 3570 (90.2 %) received SAP. Overall incidence of 30-day superficial incisional surgical site infection (SSI), deep incisional SSI, and organ space SSI were 0.9 %, 0.0 %, and 0.1 %, respectively. The incidence of superficial incisional SSI was significantly higher in the patients who did not receive SAP (SAP 0.8 %, no SAP 2.1 %; p &frac14;0.024). The incidence of organ space SSI was also significantly higher in the patients who did not receive SAP (SAP 0.1 %, no SAP 0.8 %; p &frac14;0.008). There was no difference in the incidence of C. diff colitis (SAP 0.1 %, no SAP 0.0 %; p &frac14;1.000). Multivariable modeling, controlling for Hispanic ethnicity, age, and gender, demonstrated patients that received SAP were significantly less likely to have any postoperative SSI compared to patients who did not receive SAP (OR &frac14;0.35). Conclusion: Hospitals are not currently compliant with SIS guidelines regarding omission of antibiotic prophylaxis for low-risk patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomies.

Or has something lodged in their throat? Or accidentally ingests household clearer? Or incurs an esophageal injury? Today we’re going to talk about best practices for diagnosing and managing esophageal injuries caused by foreign bodies, caustic ingestions and traumatic injuries with Senior Fellow and Pediatric Surgery Specialist at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, Dr. Aaron Garrison First, let’s talk about the epidemiology Here’s Dr. Garrison. So as we know children sometimes swallow things accidentally, like coins, buttons and beads. And most pass harmlessly through their digestive system. But what happens if a child swallows a button battery, one of those small, flat and round things that power a lot of devices. When ingested, they can cause damage in several different ways. A single battery can create an electrical current or leak harmful chemicals that can damage or actually eat through sensitive tissue causing aortoesophageal fistula. But first things first. How can you differentiate between a button battery and a coin on x-ray? They look the same, right? If you see that halo, it turns into an emergency. Now, suppose a neighbor, who knows you’re a doctor, calls you to say her 3 year old may have swallowed a button battery. What should you advise her to do immediately before going to the ER? The best thing is to advise them to give their child 10 mg of honey every 10 minutes on the way to the hospital. To check out really good algorithms regarding known or suspected battery ingestions in younger and older children and what to do, go to the Poison Control website ( www.poison.org/guideline ) So scoping and removing the object is critically important. Once you’ve determined that the child has ingested a coin vs. a battery, you can wait until the next day to see if it passes. About x-rays - some objects such as steak bones and metallic objects are radiopaque, that is easier to visualize.

MD, PhD; Incorvia, Joseph MScGH; Reed, Brianna BS; Nuzzi, Laura C. BA; Hughes, Christopher D. MD, MPH; Catallozzi, Liza MS, CCC-SLP; Clark, Roseanne MS, CCC-SLP; Kummer, Ann W. PhD, CCC-SLP, FASHA; Meara, John G. MD, DMD, MBABackground: No widely applied standardized outcome metric exists following palatoplasty. We created a novel quality metric, optimal outcome reporting (OOR), reflecting patients who experienced the best outcome: normal velopharyngeal function and no unintended fistula after a single operation. We assessed OOR at 5 and 8 years of age in a patient cohort. Methods: Data collected included sex, ethnicity, Veau classification, syndromic status, operative age, presence of fistulae, and speech assessments at 5 and 8 years. Patients with submucous clefts were excluded. Results: The cohort comprised 94 patients. Median operative age was 10 months; 45% were male, 46% were non-White, and 25% had syndromic diagnoses. The most common cleft types were Veau I (32%) and Veau III (28%). At 5 years, 69% (65 of 94) achieved OOR, with suboptimal outcomes due to multiple operations (9), velopharyngeal insufficiency (19), or fistula (1). At 8 years, 73% (61 of 83) met OOR criteria; failures resulted from multiple operations (12), velopharyngeal insufficiency (9), or fistula (1). Patients with OOR were significantly younger at the time of palate repair. A higher proportion of patients with nonsyndromic diagnoses and those with Veau I/III clefts attained OOR compared with patients with syndromic diagnoses and other cleft types. Nine patients with speech-related suboptimal outcomes at 5 years demonstrated optimal outcomes by 8 years with speech therapy alone. Conclusions: Cleft palate OOR describes the ideal outcome following primary palatoplasty. This simple surgical outcome metric can be applied to individual surgeons and across centers, facilitating benchmarking and quality improvement initiatives. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11308 2025-12-11T03:58:05+00:00 cleft palate Veau speech therapy pedsurg ENT OOR Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/880 2026-06-02 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/880/thumbnail_1008_2019-01-11_16-41-19.jpg Recurrent and Complicated EA/TEF: Update Course 2016 Dr. Mac Harmon gives a presentation on recurrent and complicated tracheoesophageal fistula and esophageal atresia.

Therefore, we performed a multi-institutional analysis for infants requiring hemodialysis post-CHS. The Pediatric Health Information System (PHIS) was queried for infants undergoing CHS from 2004 to 2024. Intermittent hemodialysis (iHD) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) were included, patients undergoing pre-CHS dialysis or post-CHS peritoneal dialysis during admission were excluded. High HD use centers were in the top 10% of HD usage while low HD use centers were all other centers. After CHS, 1% (332/31,634) of infants received a form of hemodialysis (HD); 61% (204/332) received CRRT, 11% (37/332) received iHD, 11% (36/332) received both, and 17% (55/332) had an unknown type. HD was provided in 2% (220/12,898) of neonates (< 31days-old at CHS) vs. 1% (112/18,736) of infants 31-365 days old (p < 0.001). One-year survival was lower in the dialysis vs. non-dialysis cohort (46% vs. 94%, p < 0.0001). CRRT patients had higher one-year survival vs. iHD (50% vs. 25%, weighted log-rank; p = 0.01), although there was no difference after adjustment upon multivariate analysis. HD infants at high HD use centers had improved hospital and 1-year survival vs. low HD use (66% vs. 23%; 67% vs. 28%, p < 0.0001). Infants requiring hemodialysis (iHD or CRRT) post-CHS suffer from poor outcomes with < 50% 1-year survival, with high HD use centers having triple the hospital survival and double the 1-year survival, suggesting modifiable factors may mitigate poor outcomes.

We sought to identify the most accurate predictor of mortality and ECMO utilization at early and late gestation timepoints amongst the various lung volume measurements: lung-to-head ratio (LHR), observed-to-expected (O/E) LHR, O/E total fetal lung volume (TFLV) and percent predicted lung volume (PPLV).MethodsRetrospective cohort study of patients with isolated left and right-sided CDH at our fetal care center from 2012 to 2023. Early gestation imaging was performed at initial evaluation (median 24.6 weeks) and late gestation imaging between 32 and 34 weeks gestation. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to establish optimal lung measurement cutoff values (Youden's index) associated with ECMO utilization and mortality.ResultsFor left CDH, late PPLV ≤17.6 % was the strongest predictor o https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12102 2026-05-27T15:44:38+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12088 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/12088-123bbfaf20.jpg Central Lines...WHAT? - Richelle Guinigundo - APP Conference 2026 Dr. Richelle Guinigundo, Nurse Practitioner at Cincinnati Children's, delivers an educational presentation on central venous access.

Thomas M Benkoe, MD, PhD thomas.benkoe@meduniwien.ac.at Thomas Benkoe|Thomas Benkö|Tom Benkö Kinderchirurg|Thomas Benkö Kinderchirurgie|Thomas Benkoe Pediatric Surgery Thomas M Benkoe, MD, PhD; Martin L Metzelder, MD, PhD; Department of Pediatric Surgery, Medical University of Vienna Aim of the study: To present the safety and feasibility of the laparoscopic Human XtensionsTM handheld software-driven platform in pediatric surgery. Video presentation: The Human extension HandXTM System is a new fully articulating 5mm software driven laparoscopic platform. The video shows a pediatric laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication performed in a 12 year old male patient suffering from gastroesophageal reflux disease for three years presenting with histologically confirmed esophagitis with confluent ulcers in the distal esophagus. The most demanding steps concern the creation of the retroesophageal space and the hiatoplasty. The presented device offers the technical benefits of robotic surgery via a handheld platform to overcome the limitations of non-articulating instruments. The key steps are performed using the new platform including controlled stitching of the hiatus and intracorporal slip knot formation. Conclusion: The presented video highlights the first pediatric laparoscopic fundoplication using the HandXTM System. spaces/2/content/6866/file_8322_2023-07-20_04-00-19.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:19+00:00 3 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6492 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6492/thumbnail_6492_2023-03-14_22-00-13.jpg Therapeutic Options Therapeutic Options spaces/8/content/6492/file_7915_2023-03-14_22-00-13.mp4 2023-03-14T22:00:13+00:00 1 Medical Education yes Colorectal Channel no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7621 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7621/thumbnail_7621_2023-11-13_16-00-11.jpg IPEG 2021 - Karl Storz Symposium IPEG 2021 Annual Meeting Karl Storz Symposium Lecture spaces/2/content/7621/file_9134_2023-11-13_16-00-11.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:11+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6923 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6923/thumbnail_6923_2023-07-20_08-00-19.jpg Laparoscopic Duodenal Atresia Repair with 5mm Endoscopic Stapler Presenter: Kayla B Briggs, MD kaylabbriggs@gmail.com Social Media: @pmchoi, @CDekonenko Pamela Choi, MD; Kayla B Briggs, MD; Charlene Dekonenko, MD; Jason Fraser, MD; David Juang, MD; Children's Mercy Hospital This is a case of a newborn male who underwent a laparoscopic duodenal atresia repair on Day of Life 3. A 5mm port was placed in the umbilicus for a camera, and 2 stab incisions were placed in the right/left mid quadrants. One transabdominal suture was placed for liver retraction. After kocherization, the enterotomies were made in the proximal and distal portions of the duodenum. Another transabdominal stitch was placed through the enterotomies to align the 2 limbs. The camera was placed through a stab incision, and the 5mm stapler placed through the port. The stapler was inserted and fired to create the anastomosis. The enterotomy was closed with multiple interrupted sutures. The baby was kept NPO until POD#5- an UGI confirmed no leak with passage of contrast into the distal bowel. The baby’s diet was advanced, and he was discharged home on POD#10 on full feeds. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6923 2023-07-20T08:00:19+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6882 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6882/thumbnail_6882_2023-07-20_04-00-20.jpg Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair in a girl: Percutaneous Lateral approach Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair in a girl: Percutaneous Lateral approach spaces/2/content/6882/file_8338_2023-07-20_04-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:20+00:00 3 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6874 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6874/thumbnail_6874_2023-07-20_04-00-20.jpg THORACOSCOPIC EXCISION OF DISTAL ESOPHAGEAL DUPLICATION CYST THORACOSCOPIC EXCISION OF DISTAL ESOPHAGEAL DUPLICATION CYST spaces/2/content/6874/file_8330_2023-07-20_04-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:20+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6875 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6875/thumbnail_6875_2023-07-20_04-00-20.jpg LAPAROSCOPIC RESECTION OF A 13 CM ADRENAL MASS IN A 13 YEAR OLD GIRL LAPAROSCOPIC RESECTION OF A 13 CM ADRENAL MASS IN A 13 YEAR OLD GIRL spaces/2/content/6875/file_8331_2023-07-20_04-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:20+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5918 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/7/content/5918/thumbnail_5918_2022-10-14_08-00-06.jpg STORZ instruments (Trocars) STORZ instruments (Trocars) spaces/7/content/5918/file_7338_2022-10-14_08-00-06.mp4 2022-10-14T08:00:06+00:00 1 Medical Education yes EUPSA/ERNICA no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3993 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3993/thumbnail_3993_2021-05-05_12-15-07.jpg AUGMENTED REALITY NAVIGATION SYSTEM FOR LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY FOR PEDIATRIC MALIGNANT TUMOR Augmented Reality Navigation System for Laparoscopic Surgery for Pediatric Malignant Tumor on Preoperative CT Image R.

When unable to attain this length without tension, the Collis gastroplasty is an invaluable technique. Materials and Methods: After placement of the standard 5 laparoscopic trocars for hiatal hernia repair, use of an intra-thoracically placed 45-mm stapler allows for ideal articulation though the hiatus for ligation of the fundus and creation of the neo-esophagus. Bougie placement prior is critical to protect diameter of the esophagus Results and Conclusion: We describe the use of a laparoscopic Collis gastroplasty with Nissen fundoplication in a 14-month-old who was diagnosed with a large right-sided hiatal hernia with the gastroesophageal junction in the subcarinal position.This is an ideal technique when the gastroesophageal junction cannot be brought below the diaphragmatic hiatus without tension.

We aim to detail the advanced laparoscopic repair of a complex, multiply recurrent Morgagni hernia. A 2-year-old male with a Morgagni hernia and a surgical history of multiple attempts, including primary repair, mesh repair, and eventual exploratory laparotomy for continued failure of the hernia repairs, eventually recurred a fourth time. Advanced laparoscopic techniques were utilized to repair of this large Morgagni hernia. Laparoscopically the hernia contents were dissected and reduced with subsequent excision of the hernia sac. The hernia defect was measured and a biologic mesh was customized to allow adequate overlap. The mesh was then inserted and was fastened with transfascial and intracorporal tying techniques. Postoperatively the patient had an uneventful recovery and two-year follow up reveals no further recurrence of the Morgagni hernia. Thus we conclude that minimally invasive surgical techniques are feasible even with complicated, multiply recurrent hernias.

Outpatient workup included a CT angiogram of the chest at age 7 months which demonstrated a triangular lesion in the region of the left upper lobe. He presented for elective thoracoscopic resection of left CPAM at 9 months. Inspection of the left thorax upon entry revealed complete absence of the parietal pericardium, with the heart freely exposed to the pleural cavity. An extralobar pulmonary sequestration was diagnosed and resected. The procedure was well tolerated, and the patient discharged postoperative day 1. Complete (bilateral) agenesis is the rarest form of pericardial agenesis, and has the best prognosis without concern for herniation. Left hemiagenesis is most common, accounting for 70-80% of cases. Smaller left sided defects are the most dangerous, and should be closely evaluated for strangulation and involvement of coronary arteries prior to proceeding with pericardioplasty. spaces/2/content/6862/file_8318_2023-07-20_04-00-18.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:18+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6899 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6899/thumbnail_6899_2023-07-20_08-00-17.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Crucial steps in in laparoscopic management of torted paraovarian cysts Presenter: Malgorzata Fryczek gosia.grochot@gmail.com facebook.com/gosia.grochot.1 CRUCIAL STEPS IN IN LAPAROSCOPIC MANAGEMENT OF TORTED PARAOVARIAN CYSTS. Malgorzata Fryczek; Marcin Ma?lanka; Wojciech Górecki; Department of Pediatric Surgery, of the University Children's Hospital of the Jagiellonian University Medical College in Kraków Identification of paraovarian tumors may be challenging, and result in needless dissection and iatrogenic injury to both ovary and tube. Torted adnexa may change anatomy of the ovary, tube and the paraovarian cyst. Correct identification of the latter is the key to appropriate management and adnexal preservation during surgery. We prefer the following steps for appropriate management of the torted paraovarian cyst. spaces/2/content/6899/file_8355_2023-07-20_08-00-17.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:17+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6930 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6930/thumbnail_6930_2023-07-20_08-00-20.jpg IPEG 2020 Top Abstract: Laparoscopic Left Mesocolic Hernia Repair Presenter: Phillip B Ham, MD, MS pbenhamiii@gmail.com @BensonHam Phillip B Ham, MD, MS; Nicholas Georgalas, MD; Kathryn Bass, MD, MBA; Oishei Children's Hospital Purpose: Left mesocolic hernias are congenital internal hernias that most commonly present in adulthood and have historically been treated mostly with open repair. We report a case of a pediatric patient who underwent laparoscopic repair. Case Presentation: A 15 year old male presented with sudden acute abdominal pain and bilious vomiting, with a history of chronic abdominal pain. Imaging was concerning for an internal hernia despite no history of surgery. He underwent diagnostic laparoscopy with laparoscopic repair of a left mesocolic (paraduodenal) hernia. He did well postoperatively and was discharged postoperative day two. Discussion: While there are only a few reports of laparoscopic approaches for left mesocolic hernias in children, it allows for confirmation of diagnosis and effective treatment with minimal morbidity. Early discharge is feasible with this approach as well as excellent pain control and cosmesis. Conclusion: Laparoscopic left mesocolic hernia repair in pediatric patients is a safe and effective approach that may offer less morbidity, pain, and earlier discharge than an open approach. spaces/2/content/6930/file_8386_2023-07-20_08-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:20+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6913 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6913/thumbnail_6913_2023-07-20_08-00-18.jpg THORACOSCOPIC PULMONARY LOBECTOMY THORACOSCOPIC PULMONARY LOBECTOMY spaces/2/content/6913/file_8369_2023-07-20_08-00-18.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:18+00:00 1 noprod channel#ipeg channel#vimeo_migration Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5503 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/7/content/5503/thumbnail_5503_2022-06-17_00-00-12.jpg Ukraine Presentation – App Demo and Blast presentation Ukraine Presentation – App Demo and Blast presentation https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/1fbc1701-5f12-4503-a0cf-34b8ab4b7df2/AppleHLS1/2412b560a12fe5e13cdb9504292f1629.m3u8 2022-06-17T00:00:12+00:00 2 Medical Education yes EUPSA/ERNICA no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7647 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7647/thumbnail_7647_2023-11-15_00-00-07.jpg Use of cystoscope as a uterine manipulator Use of the Cystoscope as a Uterine Manipulator and the Scrotal Incision of the Darthos Pouch as a Trocar Site M.

Case: Stage four vesicourethral reflux was detected in a three-years-old boy who was followed for antenatal hydronephrosis and had recurrent urinary tract infection. Previously subureteric injections were performed in an external center. Radiological and scintigraphic examination revealed decreased right renal function (11%), severe hydroureteronephrosis and ureterovesical stenosis. The patient underwent robotic ureteroneocystostomy and ureteral narrowing. The patient was discharged on the 8th postoperative day and has been followed up for 11 months.

Laparoscopy has been used in rectal mobilization for other anorectal malformations but its use in repair of rectovaginal fistulas is not broadly reported. We have utilized laparoscopy in repair of several rectovaginal fistulas and present a case highlighting its advantages. Rectal mobilization and division of the common rectovaginal wall were performed laparoscopically. The motility gained by laparoscopic dissection of abdominal structures enabled a more limited perineal incision than usual, and sparing of the perineal body. spaces/2/content/6903/file_8359_2023-07-20_08-00-17.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:17+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7623 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7623/thumbnail_9136_2023-11-13_16-00-11.jpg IPEG 2021 - SS7 Hernia I IPEG 2021 Annual Meeting Scientific Session 7 - Hernia I spaces/2/content/7623/file_9136_2023-11-13_16-00-11.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:11+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5253 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/7/content/5253/thumbnail_5253_2022-03-23_22-00-10.jpg Eupsa 2022 Space Commercial StayCurrent is excited to announce that our friends from The European Pediatric Surgeons Association now have their own space on the StayCurrent App with questions, videos and lectures so we can continue to spread knowledge about pediatric surgery to surgeons across the world.

Case: Stage four vesicourethral reflux was detected in a three-years-old boy who was followed for antenatal hydronephrosis and had recurrent urinary tract infection. Previously subureteric injections were performed in an external center. Radiological and scintigraphic examination revealed decreased right renal function (11%), severe hydroureteronephrosis and ureterovesical stenosis. The patient underwent robotic ureteroneocystostomy and ureteral narrowing. The patient was discharged on the 8th postoperative day and has been followed up for 11 months. The patient no longer had urinary tract infection and renal function was found to be 16%. Discussion: Ureteral injection is a minimally invasive method commonly used in the treatment of vesicourethral reflux. However, it can cause serious complications. In problematic cases, robotic surgery can be performed safely and more easily compared to open surgery.

Video presentation: The Human extension HandXTM System is a new fully articulating 5mm software driven laparoscopic platform. The video shows a pediatric laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication performed in a 12 year old male patient suffering from gastroesophageal reflux disease for three years presenting with histologically confirmed esophagitis with confluent ulcers in the distal esophagus. The most demanding steps concern the creation of the retroesophageal space and the hiatoplasty. The presented device offers the technical benefits of robotic surgery via a handheld platform to overcome the limitations of non-articulating instruments. The key steps are performed using the new platform including controlled stitching of the hiatus and intracorporal slip knot formation. Conclusion: The presented video highlights the first pediatric laparoscopic fundoplication using the HandXTM System.

Postoperatively, he developed increasing obstructive symptoms, soiling, and painful passage of stools. When he was 5 year-old, he underwent examination under anaesthesia, barium enema and lower endoscopy that showed a redundant rectal pouch. Rectal suction biopsies ruled out residual disease. He was therefore scheduled for redundant rectal pouch excision. The procedure was performed with a DaVinci Si robotic system and was carried out without intraoperative complications. The whole procedure lasted a total of 260 minutes including 60 minutes laparoscopic division of peritoneal adhesions and a further 30 minutes of docking time. Postoperative course was uneventful. The child was discharged on postoperative day 7. Symptoms improved and progressively settled. The child is now fine, back to normal continence with no more episodes of soiling nor pain and an overall normal quality of life.

A 5mm camera port was inserted in the anterior axillary line in the 5th space. Two working 3mm ports were inserted under direct vision. Azygous vein was identified and preserved. The lower esophageal pouch was identified and dissection was performed . However dissection was difficult as the upper pouch was seen overlapping the lower pouch. The lower and upper pouch sharing a common wall for approximately 1 cm length. TEF was not visualised initially as it was lying posterior to the upper pouch. The common wall was separated and the upper and lower ends were dissected circumferentially. TEF was identified and clipped. The fistula was doubly clipped Upper pouch dissection was performed and edges freshened and anastomosis performed in a single layer using Vicryl 5-0.

Although these lesions can potentially be managed nonoperatively, surgical excision provides the benefit of a definitive historical diagnosis and is certainly indicated when symptoms are associated. Open resection is the most common approach for removal of intraabdominal BPS lesions; however, laparoscopy has been used in recent years. We present two successful cases of laparoscopic resection of intraabdominal extralobar BPS (IEBPS). Laparoscopic excision is a less invasive treatment with shorter recovery time, minimal narcotic usage, and avoids associated complications, such as infection and malignant degeneration. As evidenced by the cases discussed here, the laparoscopic approach is safe and feasible and should be considered when managing congenital lung malformations. spaces/2/content/6924/file_8380_2023-07-20_08-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:20+00:00 1 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/4060 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/4060/thumbnail_4060_2021-05-24_12-11-56.jpg IPEG 2018 - LAPAROSCOPIC RESECTION OF A 13 CM ADRENAL MASS IN A 13 YEAR OLD GIRL IPEG 2018 Annual Meeting Laparoscopic Resection of a 13cm Adrenal Mass in a 13 Year Old Girl Top 10 Abstract N.X.

Misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment could cause serious complications. Reports of treatment using minimal invasion are scarce. Our objective is to report our experience in the laparoscopic treatment of esophageal stenosis secondary to tracheobronchial cartilaginous remains. Material and methods: Retrospective study which included patients with an obstruction of the lower third of the esophagus secondary to cartilaginous embryonic remains. All were operated by laparoscopic approach assisted by endoscopy. Results: 4 patients were treated, age range from 18 to 30 months. Surgical time varied from 2.8 to 3.1 hours. No complications. The histopathological report was an intramural cartilaginous ring. 1 patient presented anastomosis leak 5 days after surgery and required esophageal dilation at 3 months. Normal oral feeding. Conclusion: Resection of the affected segment is the treatment of choice in these patients, which can be done safely by laparoscopy.

After an inconclusive ultrasound to evaluate for appendicitis, a CT scan was obtained, which demonstrated pancreatic inflammation and a cystic structure within the porta hepatis. The initial lipase level was 6000. An MRCP was then performed, which showed a type 1 choledochal cyst measuring 4.2 cm in diameter. Following resolution of her pancreatitis, she was brought to the operating room two months later for laparoscopic resection of the choledochal cyst. Operative Technique: Since the primary surgeon was left-handed, we chose a right lateral approach for port placement. We utilized a four-port technique with 5 mm short instruments, a 5 mm vessel sealing device, and a 5 mm stapler. Intraoperatively, an accessory hepatic duct was noted originating from the right posterolateral portion of the cyst. This was sutured intracorporeally to the proximal common hepatic duct to construct a common channel. The hepaticoduodenostomy was performed from the patient’s right side, suturing primarily with the left hand. Hospital Course: The patient experienced an uneventful recovery. She was started on a regular diet on postoperative day 4. She did not experience postoperative jaundice and bowel movements were normal in appearance. She was discharged on postoperative day 6. Pathology for the specimen was consistent with a choledochal cyst. No subsequent issues were noted at follow up 3 months after discharge. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6857 2023-07-20T04:00:18+00:00 2 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6496 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6496/thumbnail_6496_2023-03-14_22-00-13.jpg Hirschsprung’s Disease Dr. Rae Hanke, Dr. Alex Casar, Dr. Jason Frischer, and Dr. Aaron Garrison come together to provide you the essentials on diagnosis and management of Hirschprung's Disease.

Nathan S Rubalcava, MD nathanru@med.umich.edu @NateRubalcava @JamesDGeiger Nathan S Rubalcava, MD; Gabriella A Norwitz; James D Geiger, MD; University of Michigan Introduction: Repair of large hiatal hernias require adequate intra-abdominal esophageal length for best long-term outcomes and less rate of recurrence. When unable to attain this length without tension, the Collis gastroplasty is an invaluable technique. Materials and Methods: After placement of the standard 5 laparoscopic trocars for hiatal hernia repair, use of an intra-thoracically placed 45-mm stapler allows for ideal articulation though the hiatus for ligation of the fundus and creation of the neo-esophagus. Bougie placement prior is critical to protect diameter of the esophagus Results and Conclusion: We describe the use of a laparoscopic Collis gastroplasty with Nissen fundoplication in a 14-month-old who was diagnosed with a large right-sided hiatal hernia with the gastroesophageal junction in the subcarinal position.This is an ideal technique when the gastroesophageal junction cannot be brought below the diaphragmatic hiatus without tension. spaces/2/content/6867/file_8323_2023-07-20_04-00-19.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:19+00:00 3 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7387 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/7387/thumbnail_8880_2023-10-23_22-00-09.jpg CNA Conference - Dr. Pedro Adragao - What to do with symptomatic overtraining bradycardia?

Endoscopic surveillance in these cases is often ineffective. We present the case of a teenager with this mutation and family history of HDGC in which we performed a prophylactic laparoscopic total gastrectomy. Surgical technique requires omentectomy and division of the short gastric vessels. Both the pyloric and the left gastric artery have to be properly ligated and the duodenum is transected with stapler. A Roux-en-Y reconstruction is then performed and the ascended jejunal segment is connected to the distal esophagus with a circular stapler. An upper GI contrast study at postoperative day 4 showed a leak at the lateral side of the esophageal anastomosis that was managed conservatively. Patient was discharged on the 10th day. The laparoscopic approach was a safe minimally invasive way to complete a prophylactic total gastrectomy in this patient Presenter: Diego Gallegos, MD Email: diego.gallegos.g@gmail.com @dgallegosmd (twitter) die.gallegos (instagram) https://www.facebook.com/diego.gallegos.g/ (facebook) pitermercado (instagram) gaselmo (instagram) spaces/2/content/2937/file_3888_2020-08-26_08-00-17.mp4 2020-08-26T08:00:17+00:00 4 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7619 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7619/thumbnail_9132_2023-11-13_16-00-11.jpg IPEG 2021 - SS4 Gastrointestinal I IPEG 2021 Annual Meeting Scientific Session 4 - Gastrointestinal I spaces/2/content/7619/file_9132_2023-11-13_16-00-11.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:11+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/2935 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/2935/thumbnail_3886_2020-08-26_08-00-17.jpg IPEG 2020 Top Abstract: Laparoscopic Ligation of Duplicated Urethra & Excision of Urachal Remnant in an Infant Male IPEG 2020 Annual Meeting -Top Abstracts Authors: Kristen M Meier, MD; Nathan M Novotny, MD; Brian D Odom, MD; Donald P Gibson, MD; Zachary J Liss, MD; Beaumont Health A 2-month-old male presented to the emergency department with a febrile urinary tract infection.

Although these lesions can potentially be managed nonoperatively, surgical excision provides the benefit of a definitive historical diagnosis and is certainly indicated when symptoms are associated. Open resection is the most common approach for removal of intraabdominal BPS lesions; however, laparoscopy has been used in recent years. We present two successful cases of laparoscopic resection of intraabdominal extralobar BPS (IEBPS). Laparoscopic excision is a less invasive treatment with shorter recovery time, minimal narcotic usage, and avoids associated complications, such as infection and malignant degeneration. As evidenced by the cases discussed here, the laparoscopic approach is safe and feasible and should be considered when managing congenital lung malformations.

The pre-operative work-up confirmed the diagnosis of primary obstructive megaureter (POM) with decreased function of the left kidney. He underwent endoscopic balloon dilation of left POM. Two months later, he represented flank pain and imaging studies showed persistence of the left POM (APD pelvis 37mm, APD pre-vesical ureter 32mm). So, he underwent robot-assisted extravesical ureteral reimplantation (REVUR) with ureteral tapering. The operative time was 125 minutes. Postoperative course was uneventful. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 3rd, following bladder catheter and drain removal. JJ stent was removed 28 days postoperatively. At follow-up (20 months), the patient was asymptomatic, US demonstrated improved hydronephrosis (APD pelvis 13.5 mm) and renal scintigraphy showed improved drainage of left kidney.

We report a useful technique of transperineal transection using a 5-mm stapler(JustRight) for recto-bulbar fistula. Operative Procedure:Under general anesthesia, the recto-bulbar fistula orifice was confirmed using flexible cystoscope. Before transection of the fistula, the center of the muscle complex was confirmed from outside. The muscle complex, including the pubo-rectal sling, was then laparoscopically confirmed using electrical nerve stimulator. A pean was inserted to keep the center of the muscle complex from the perineal wound and a 5-mm trocar was replaced. The recto-bulbar urethral fistula was stapled and transected using a 5-mm stapler through the trocar placed at the neo-anus. The operator successfully confirmed complete adequate closure of the fistula under flexible cystoscope observation. Conclusion: A 5-mm stapler was effective and useful for the recto-bulbar urethral fistula.

Repair is generally performed in the infant period, although sometimes delayed into childhood due to associated comborbidities or social situations. We recently encountered a 17 year old male patient with an unrepaired rectourethral fistula. We elected to repair this using a combined abdominal and perineal approach, with robotic assistance for abdominal and deep pelvic dissection. Considerations for operative repair for this patient are different from repair in an infant or child. Simultaneous urethroscopic evaluation helps identify the true origin of the fistula and minimize the potential of a posterior urethral diverticulum. The robotic system is helpful for dissection of deep pelvic structures in this large patient, and for visualizing the location of the cystoscope. Lastly, performing the anoplasty in lithotomy position is challenging but eliminates the need to change to prone positioning for perineal work, which is helpful in this adult sized patient. spaces/2/content/6901/file_8357_2023-07-20_08-00-17.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:17+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6941 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6941/thumbnail_6941_2023-07-20_08-00-21.jpg SUCCESSFUL THORACOSCOPIC TREATMENT FOR KLUTH IV2 ESOPHAGEAL ATRESIA COMBINED WITH TRACHEAL BRONCHUS SUCCESSFUL THORACOSCOPIC TREATMENT FOR KLUTH IV2 ESOPHAGEAL ATRESIA COMBINED WITH TRACHEAL BRONCHUS spaces/2/content/6941/file_8397_2023-07-20_08-00-21.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:21+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7624 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7624/thumbnail_9137_2023-11-13_16-00-11.jpg IPEG 2021 - Innovations Session IPEG 2021 Annual Meeting Innovations Session spaces/2/content/7624/file_9137_2023-11-13_16-00-11.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:11+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6616 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/8/content/6616/thumbnail_6616_2023-05-02_22-01-14.jpg CCPR Surgical treatment of complex cloaca malformation CCPR Surgical treatment of complex cloaca malformation https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/c4a3674d-5fda-4a88-a1ec-9921e55685fd/AppleHLS1/76eea2c5d12a2dcdfcbf34001e87f807.m3u8 2023-05-02T22:01:14+00:00 5 channel#private_colorectal_channel Medical Education yes Colorectal Channel no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6935 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6935/thumbnail_6935_2023-07-20_08-00-21.jpg RIGHT THORACOSCOPIC REPAIR OF AN H-TYPE TRACHEOESOPHAGEAL FISTULA RIGHT THORACOSCOPIC REPAIR OF AN H-TYPE TRACHEOESOPHAGEAL FISTULA spaces/2/content/6935/file_8391_2023-07-20_08-00-21.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:21+00:00 1 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/4781 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/7/content/4781/thumbnail_4781_2021-12-28_12-00-12.jpg CDH Patch repair: patch material vs PSI muscle flap November 2020.

Endoscopic surveillance in these cases is often ineffective. We present the case of a teenager with this mutation and family history of HDGC in which we performed a prophylactic laparoscopic total gastrectomy. Surgical technique requires omentectomy and division of the short gastric vessels. Both the pyloric and the left gastric artery have to be properly ligated and the duodenum is transected with stapler. A Roux-en-Y reconstruction is then performed and the ascended jejunal segment is connected to the distal esophagus with a circular stapler. An upper GI contrast study at postoperative day 4 showed a leak at the lateral side of the esophageal anastomosis that was managed conservatively. Patient was discharged on the 10th day. The laparoscopic approach was a safe minimally invasive way to complete a prophylactic total gastrectomy in this patient spaces/2/content/6926/file_8382_2023-07-20_08-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:20+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6898 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6898/thumbnail_6898_2023-07-20_08-00-17.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Robotic Duodenal polypectomy in a case of Peutz-Jeghers Presenter: Rosie Cresner rosiecresner@gmail.com Authors: Rosie Cresner; Carmen Sofia Chacon; Simon Clarke, MR; Chelsea and Westminster Children's Hospital, London We present a step-by-step demonstration technique of a robotic duodenal enterotomy and polypectomy. The patient was a 7y old girl with known background of Peutz Jeger’s Syndrome who presented via clinic with intermittent upper abdominal pain and non-bilious vomiting. She was dehydrated and acidotic pre-operatively due to profuse vomiting. A D1 duodenal polyp causing obstruction was seen on duodenoscopy. The base was 2.5 cm and too large to snare endoscopically. We performed a robotic enterotomy and polypectomy. 3 robotic,1 balloon accessory ports and a liver retractor were placed. The robot allowed much easier manipulation of the duodenum, retrieval and eversion of the polyp from within the lumen, and allowed easy closure of the enterotomy with 2 layer running suture. The patient had excellent uneventful recovery with reintroduction of enteral fluids 48h after the surgery and discharge on the forth post-operative day. This technique should be considered for further cases. spaces/2/content/6898/file_8354_2023-07-20_08-00-17.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:17+00:00 1 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7626 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7626/thumbnail_9139_2023-11-13_16-00-12.jpg IPEG 2021 - Artificial Intelligence IPEG 2021 Annual Meeting Panel on Artificial Intelligence spaces/2/content/7626/file_9139_2023-11-13_16-00-12.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:12+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7645 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7645/thumbnail_9158_2023-11-15_00-00-06.jpg IPEG Vienna 2020 Announcement IEPG 2020 Annual Meeting Joint Meeting with EUPSA and ESPES spaces/2/content/7645/file_9158_2023-11-15_00-00-06.mp4 2023-11-15T00:00:06+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6858 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6858/thumbnail_6858_2023-07-20_04-00-18.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: PSEUDOPANCREATIC CYST DRAINAGE WITH TRANSGASTRIC LAPAROSCOPIC CYSTOGASTROSTOMY Presenter: Paula Jaimes, MD Email: paula_jaimes@hotmail.com https://twitter.com/UnHomi https://co.linkedin.com/in/paula-jaimes-23078680 https://twitter.com/agramirezv https://twitter.com/ivanmolina60 https://twitter.com/Ossigil Authors: Ivan Molina, MD; Paula Jaimes, MD; Ossiris Gil, MD; Andres Ramirez, MD; Universidad Nacional De Colombia Introduction: Pancreatic pseudocysts occur as a complication of acute or chronic pancreatitis and are uncommon in children. Symptomatic or persistant pseudocysts may require surgical treatment; laparoscopic and endoscopic modalities have been described, we describe a mixed approach. Case presentation: We present the case of a 6-year-old boy with pancreatic pseudocyst secondary to pancreatitis after blunt abdominal trauma. The patient presented with abdominal pain, abdominal distension and vomiting. Computed tomography revealed a giant pancreatic pseudocyst. We performed an anterior laparoscopic transgastric approach. A stapled cystogastrostomy was created under laparoscopic and endoscopic vision. Control upper gastrointestinal endoscopy was performed 6 months after without pathological findings. Discussion: We believe this mixed minimally invasive approach is highly feasible and reproducible in the treatment of pancreatic pseudocysts in children. spaces/2/content/6858/file_8314_2023-07-20_04-00-18.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:18+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6859 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6859/thumbnail_6859_2023-07-20_04-00-18.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Thoracoscopic Pulmonary Metastasectomy for Hepatoblastoma Using Indocyanine Green Presenter: Alyssa R Mowrer, MD Email: mowrer.alyssa@gmail.com Authors: Alyssa R Mowrer, MD1; Katherine T Flynn-O'Brien, MD, MPH2; Mariko Suchi, MD, PhD2; David R Lal, MD, MPH2; John C Densmore, MD2; 1University of Illinois College of Medicine; 2Medical College of Wisconsin Metastatic hepatoblastoma management in the pediatric population presents numerous challenges. Resection of pulmonary lesions has previously been described but presents several technical difficulties in both localization and surgical resection. This video illustrates the use of indocyanine green (ICG) dye and UV laser imaging to successfully identify lesions intraoperatively while maintaining a thorascopic approach for resection. One significant advantage of this novel application is increased sensitivity for lesions unidentified by pre-operative CT scan. The demonstrated technique allows for a more focused, parenchymal sparing resection of pulmonary lesions in a superficial location as compared to traditional pre-operative wire localization. This video exhibits the feasibility, safety, and improved accuracy of thorascopic hepatoblastoma metastasectomy resection augmented by use of indocyanine green. spaces/2/content/6859/file_8315_2023-07-20_04-00-18.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:18+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/9156 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/9156/thumbnail_10710_2024-09-12_09-14-19.jpg 2024 Update Course Full Event 2024 Update Course Full Event spaces/17/content/9156/file_10710_2024-09-12_09-14-19.mp4 2024-09-12T09:14:19+00:00 3 channel#live_event_content Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6879 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6879/thumbnail_6879_2023-07-20_04-00-20.jpg Laparoscopic Appendectomy IPEG_Lap_Appy_2021.mp4 spaces/2/content/6879/file_8335_2023-07-20_04-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:20+00:00 1 lap appy ipeg channel#ipeg channel#vimeo_migration Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6860 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6860/thumbnail_6860_2023-07-20_04-00-18.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Robotic-Assisted Sleeve Gastrectomy Revision and Endoscopic Treatment of Gastric Stenosis Presenter: Maria C Mora, MD Email: Maria C Mora, MD @MarcMichalskyMD @KarenDiefenbach @cmora306 @nationwidekids Authors: Maria C Mora, MD; Karen A Diefenbach, MD; Marc P Michalsky, MD; Department of Pediatric Surgery, Nationwide Children's Hospital With rising adolescent obesity, the use of adolescent bariatric surgery continues to increase. Although vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) has been shown to be safe and effective, multiple short and long-term complications, including GERD can occur. We present a patient with a history of a laparoscopic VSG who presented with a one-year history of worsening dyspepsia and moderate weight regain (~11kg). UGI revealed concerns for chronic organoaxial gastric volvulus. Intraoperative findings included a dilated proximal pouch, extensive adhesions causing gastric volvulus, and distal gastric sleeve stenosis. After extensive lysis of adhesions, the sleeve was straightened and revised. Additionally, laparoscopically-guided endoscopic balloon dilation was performed addressing the gastric stenosis. Postoperatively the patient’s symptoms resolved. New onset and/or progressive GERD following VSG outside the immediate postoperative period should be evaluated. While conversion to a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass may be required, initial attempts to address gastric adhesions and/or chronic stenosis should be considered. spaces/2/content/6860/file_8316_2023-07-20_04-00-18.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:18+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6861 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6861/thumbnail_6861_2023-07-20_04-00-18.jpg IPEG 2020 Top Abstract: Robotic excision of type IV choledochal cyst with hepaticoduodenostomy Presenter: Sarah Khalil, MD Email: theleanone@msn.com Authors: Sarah Khalil, MD1; Kyra Folkert, MD1; Michael J Leinwand, MD, FACS, FAAP2; 1Western Michigan University Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine; 2Bronson Children's Hospital We present our video of a robotic choledochal cyst excision with choledochoduodenostomy reconstruction. This is an excellent example of the benefits of robotic surgery with its superior visualization and articulating instruments facilitating a complex dissection and anastomosis. The patient is an 8 year-old girl who presented with right upper quadrant pain and weight loss and was found on ultrasound and MRCP to have a type IV choledochal cyst. She did well postoperatively without any complications. A brief review of the relevant literature is also included. As compared to hepaticojejunostomy, hepaticoduodenostomy for reconstruction after excision of type IV choledochal cyst is well supported in the literature. It has been shown to have shorter operative times, a lower risk of postoperative bile leak, and decreased fat malabsorption, without an increased risk of cholangitis. spaces/2/content/6861/file_8317_2023-07-20_04-00-18.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:18+00:00 2 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6863 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6863/thumbnail_6863_2023-07-20_04-00-19.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Laparoscopic Treatment of Esophageal Obstruction Caused by Embryonic Remmants Presenter: Carlos García-Hernández, MD carloscirped@hotmail.com Carlos García Hernández|carloscirped LAPAROSCOPIC TREATMENT OF ESOPHAGEAL OBSTRUCTION CAUSED BY EMBRYONIC REMMANTS Carlos García-Hernández, MD; Lourdes Carvajal Figueroa, MD; Cristian Archibaldo Garcia, MD; Sergio Landa Juarez, MD; Hospital Infantil Privado Introduction: Cartilaginous embryonic remnants of the esophagus are a rare disease. Misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment could cause serious complications. Reports of treatment using minimal invasion are scarce. Our objective is to report our experience in the laparoscopic treatment of esophageal stenosis secondary to tracheobronchial cartilaginous remains. Material and methods: Retrospective study which included patients with an obstruction of the lower third of the esophagus secondary to cartilaginous embryonic remains. All were operated by laparoscopic approach assisted by endoscopy. Results: 4 patients were treated, age range from 18 to 30 months. Surgical time varied from 2.8 to 3.1 hours. No complications. The histopathological report was an intramural cartilaginous ring. 1 patient presented anastomosis leak 5 days after surgery and required esophageal dilation at 3 months. Normal oral feeding. Conclusion: Resection of the affected segment is the treatment of choice in these patients, which can be done safely by laparoscopy. spaces/2/content/6863/file_8319_2023-07-20_04-00-19.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:19+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6864 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6864/thumbnail_6864_2023-07-20_04-00-19.jpg IPEG 2020 Top Abstract: Thoracoscopic Repair of an extremely rare variant of Esophageal atresia with Tracheoesophageal fistula Presenter: Ayushi Vig ayushivig@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/groups/502480873979170 https://www.facebook.com/Indian-Association-of-Pediatric-Surgeons-107994304080621 https://www.facebook.com/ayushi.vig.9 Kirtikumar J Rathod, MBBS, MS, MCh; Ayushi Vig; Arvind Sinha; AIIMS Jodhpur Aim: A rare case of TEF in which the upper and the lower pouch were sharing a common wall making intraoperative delineation of anatomy difficult. A 5mm camera port was inserted in the anterior axillary line in the 5th space. Two working 3mm ports were inserted under direct vision. Azygous vein was identified and preserved. The lower esophageal pouch was identified and dissection was performed . However dissection was difficult as the upper pouch was seen overlapping the lower pouch. The lower and upper pouch sharing a common wall for approximately 1 cm length. TEF was not visualised initially as it was lying posterior to the upper pouch. The common wall was separated and the upper and lower ends were dissected circumferentially. TEF was identified and clipped. The fistula was doubly clipped Upper pouch dissection was performed and edges freshened and anastomosis performed in a single layer using Vicryl 5-0. spaces/2/content/6864/file_8320_2023-07-20_04-00-19.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:19+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3931 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3931/thumbnail_3931_2021-04-19_14-44-50.jpg IPEG 2018 - THORACOSCOPIC AORTOPEXY FOR SEVERE TRACHEOMALACIA IPEG 2018 Annual Meeting Thoracoscopic Aortopexy for Severe Tracheomalacia Top 10 Abstract J.D.

Postoperatively, he developed increasing obstructive symptoms, soiling, and painful passage of stools. When he was 5 year-old, he underwent examination under anaesthesia, barium enema and lower endoscopy that showed a redundant rectal pouch. Rectal suction biopsies ruled out residual disease. He was therefore scheduled for redundant rectal pouch excision. The procedure was performed with a DaVinci Si robotic system and was carried out without intraoperative complications. The whole procedure lasted a total of 260 minutes including 60 minutes laparoscopic division of peritoneal adhesions and a further 30 minutes of docking time. Postoperative course was uneventful. The child was discharged on postoperative day 7. Symptoms improved and progressively settled. The child is now fine, back to normal continence with no more episodes of soiling nor pain and an overall normal quality of life. spaces/2/content/6865/file_8321_2023-07-20_04-00-19.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:19+00:00 1 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6868 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6868/thumbnail_6868_2023-07-20_04-00-19.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Laparoscopic resection of pancreatic head with Roux-en-Y pancreaticojejunostomy for congenital hyperi...

A 4 month old, full termed, female, having presented with hypoglycaemia Examinations confirmed congenital hyperinsulinism. The imaging with positron emission tomography using 18 F- DOPA reveled an increased uptake of the isotope in the head of the pancreas (SUV 1,54), indicating focal hyperinsulinism. The pharmacologic therapy isn’t effective. The surgical treatment was then undertaken with laparoscopic approach. The head of pancreas and uncinate procress were mobilized and resected with the isthmus transsection using Harmonic scalpel. The Common bile duct was identified and left intact. Roux-en-Y loop was created and anastomosed intracorporeally to the end of the distal remaining part of the pancreas in the retrocolic faschion. The intraoperative course was uncomplicated. The postoperative period was uneventful. The patient remained euglycaemic at 2-year follow up. spaces/2/content/6868/file_8324_2023-07-20_04-00-19.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:19+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6873 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6873/thumbnail_6873_2023-07-20_04-00-20.jpg RESULT OF PEDIATRIC LAPAROSCOPIC LIVER RESECTION A REPORT OF 15 CASES RESULT OF PEDIATRIC LAPAROSCOPIC LIVER RESECTION A REPORT OF 15 CASES spaces/2/content/6873/file_8329_2023-07-20_04-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:20+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6883 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6883/thumbnail_6883_2023-07-20_04-00-21.jpg Laparoscopic Right Inguinal Hernia Repair in a boy: Percutaneous Medial Approach Laparoscopic Right Inguinal Hernia Repair in a boy: Percutaneous Medial Approach spaces/2/content/6883/file_8339_2023-07-20_04-00-21.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:21+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6880 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6880/thumbnail_6880_2023-07-20_04-00-20.jpg Laparoscopic appendectomy by single incision IPEG_SIPES_Appy_2021.mp4 spaces/2/content/6880/file_8336_2023-07-20_04-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:20+00:00 2 lap appy ipeg channel#ipeg channel#vimeo_migration Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6900 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6900/thumbnail_6900_2023-07-20_08-00-17.jpg IPEG 2020 Top Abstract: Laparoscopic Assisted Excision of a Type III Sacrococcygeal Teratoma Presenter: Jerry Xiao, BA jxiao@mcw.edu Jerry Xiao, BA1; Veronica Sullins, MD2; Shannon Koehler, MD, PhD3; John Aiken1; Marjorie Arca4; 1Medical College of Wisconsin; 2UCLA Health; 3Driscoll Children's Hospital; 4University of Rochester Medicine Type III sacrococcygeal teratomas (SCT) are most often approached through a combined open-abdominal and perineal approach. We describe the removal of a cystic type III SCT through a laparoscopic abdominal approach and a midsagittal gluteal incision. The patient is a full-term infant with an antenatal diagnosis of SCT. On day-of-life 4, he underwent SCT excision. Laparoscopic access was gained through an open approach. The cyst was drained and the cystotomy was closed. The middle sacral artery was secured. The cyst was circumferentially dissected toward the perineum. The bladder was suspended with a transabdominal suture for better visualization. The perineal approach was a sagittal incision through the natal cleft. The patient had an uncomplicated course and was discharged on post-operative-day four. Follow up MRI within a year showed no recurrence. At two years, he has normal bladder and bowel function. Laparoscopic approach is feasible and effective for a cystic SCT resection. spaces/2/content/6900/file_8356_2023-07-20_08-00-17.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:17+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6902 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6902/thumbnail_6902_2023-07-20_08-00-17.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Thymic hyperplasia or thymoma: a doubt solved after surgical removal Sara Fernandes, MD sara.isa.fernandes@gmail.com https://twitter.com/sarafernandes_i https://www.linkedin.com/in/sara-fernandes-436749153 Sara Fernandes, MD1; José Estevão-Costa, MD, PhD2; Nuno Farinha, MD3; Ana Catarina Fragoso, MD, PhD2; 1Department of Pediatric Surgery - Centro Hospitalar Universitário São João; 2Department of Pediatric Surgery - Centro Hospitalar Universitário São João. Faculty of Medicine, Porto University.; 3Pediatric Oncology Department - Centro Hospitalar Universitário São João Thymus experiences multiple physiologic, morphologic and topographic changes with time that interfere with the interpretation of imaging findings and with the diagnosis of pathologic alterations. An asymptomatic 6-year old girl was referred with the evidence of a paracardiac mass. Computed tomographic scanning revealed a thymic hyperplasia and an expectant attitude was initially adopted but the persistent finding of mediastinal enlargement lead to further investigation. A magnetic resonance imaging has shown a paracardiac mass, raising the possibility of a massive thymic hyperplasia, not excluding the diagnosis of a thymoma. Surgical removal was decided and performed by thoracoscopy. The patient was discharged in the second postoperative day. The histological analysis has revealed a complete exeresis of a B2a thymoma. Although rare, thymomas may present an uncertain biological behavior and a complementary treatment may be necessary if the surgical removal is incomplete. spaces/2/content/6902/file_8358_2023-07-20_08-00-17.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:17+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6905 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6905/thumbnail_6905_2023-07-20_08-00-17.jpg THORACOSCOPIC RESECTION OF LARGE THYMIC CYST EXTENDING INTO THE LEFT NECK THORACOSCOPIC RESECTION OF LARGE THYMIC CYST EXTENDING INTO THE LEFT NECK spaces/2/content/6905/file_8361_2023-07-20_08-00-17.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:17+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6906 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6906/thumbnail_6906_2023-07-20_08-00-17.jpg LAPAROSCOPIC-ASSISTED ANORECTAL PULL-THROUGH FOR HIGH IMPERFORATE ANUS IN A FEMALE LAPAROSCOPIC-ASSISTED ANORECTAL PULL-THROUGH FOR HIGH IMPERFORATE ANUS IN A FEMALE spaces/2/content/6906/file_8362_2023-07-20_08-00-17.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:17+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6907 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6907/thumbnail_6907_2023-07-20_08-00-18.jpg ePARP (Endoscopic Assisted Percutaneous Anorectoplasty) ePARP (Endoscopic Assisted Percutaneous Anorectoplasty) spaces/2/content/6907/file_8363_2023-07-20_08-00-18.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:18+00:00 eparp channel#ipeg channel#vimeo_migration Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6909 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6909/thumbnail_6909_2023-07-20_08-00-18.jpg MASTERY LEARNING FOR PEDIATRIC SURGEONS_ THE CORRELATION BETWEEN BASELINE MASTERY LEARNING FOR PEDIATRIC SURGEONS_ THE CORRELATION BETWEEN BASELINE spaces/2/content/6909/file_8365_2023-07-20_08-00-18.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:18+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6928 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6928/thumbnail_6928_2023-07-20_08-00-20.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Robotic Colostomy Takedown in a Pediatric Patient Presenter: Elizabeth R Raskin, MD, FACS, FASCRS raskinrettke@gmail.com @elizabethraskin Authors: Elizabeth R Raskin, MD, FACS, FASCRS; University of California, Davis This video demonstrates a robotic-assisted colostomy takedown in a 14-year old patient who had an end colostomy created following an iatrogenic rectal injury.

Despite years of developing this technique, functional outcomes remain poor, including obstructed menstruation in 38% of patients and amenorrhea in 25%. This video presents an alternative operative strategy with delayed urogenital reconstruction. This muscle-sparing approach begins with real-time MRI-guided needle placement through the anal sphincter complex and levator ani, followed by combined endoscopic and laparoscopic (CELS) rectal mobilization, and finally anorectal pull-through. The patient in this video was born with persistent cloaca with no cervical os identified, no hydrocolpos, and normal bladder capacity. The patient’s family was counseled by Pediatric Urology, Adolescent Gynecology, and Pediatric Surgery. They elected to delay urogenital reconstruction and proceed with the above-described anorectoplasty. With appropriate patient selection, this technique addresses fecal diversion only with urogenital reconstruction delayed to an age where the patient can actively participate in shared decision making. spaces/2/content/6929/file_8385_2023-07-20_08-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:20+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6159 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/6159/thumbnail_6159_2022-11-22_00-00-09.jpg Emergency Medicine 11/19/2022 Emergency Medicine 11/19/2022 https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/8f7f0e8b-30eb-412c-a99d-acd0c2a15e06/AppleHLS1/939ca5b6222241f0cdbf3cbb6600de5f.m3u8 2022-11-22T00:00:09+00:00 3 channel#live_event_content 2022 Medical Education yes Live Event Content no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6932 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6932/thumbnail_6932_2023-07-20_08-00-20.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: Laparoscopic Repair of a Complicated Morgagni Hernia after Multiple Recurrences Hallie J Quiroz hjq4@med.miami.edu @halliequirozmd Hallie J Quiroz; Eduardo E Perez, MD; University of Miami Miller School of Medicine Laparoscopic repair of complex Morgagni hernias are controversial. We aim to detail the advanced laparoscopic repair of a complex, multiply recurrent Morgagni hernia. A 2-year-old male with a Morgagni hernia and a surgical history of multiple attempts, including primary repair, mesh repair, and eventual exploratory laparotomy for continued failure of the hernia repairs, eventually recurred a fourth time. Advanced laparoscopic techniques were utilized to repair of this large Morgagni hernia. Laparoscopically the hernia contents were dissected and reduced with subsequent excision of the hernia sac. The hernia defect was measured and a biologic mesh was customized to allow adequate overlap. The mesh was then inserted and was fastened with transfascial and intracorporal tying techniques. Postoperatively the patient had an uneventful recovery and two-year follow up reveals no further recurrence of the Morgagni hernia. Thus we conclude that minimally invasive surgical techniques are feasible even with complicated, multiply recurrent hernias. spaces/2/content/6932/file_8388_2023-07-20_08-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:20+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6933 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6933/thumbnail_6933_2023-07-20_08-00-20.jpg IPEG 2020 TOP ABSTRACT: DEVELOPMENT OF AN ORIGINAL DEVICE THAT REPLACES THE LAPAROSCOPIC TOWER IN PEDIATRIC SIMULATORS Ruth Kaller, MD ruthkaller@gmail.com Ruth Kaller, MD; Carolina Millan; Soledad Valverde; Ignacio Diaz Saubidet; Fernando Rabinovich; Rogelio Dominguez; Enrique Buela; Luzia Toselli; Silvana Prodan; Patricio Cieri; Horacio Bignon; Jorge Martinez; Gaston Bellia Munzon; Santiago Callelo; Nicolas Meer; Marcelo Martinez Ferro; Fundacion Hospitalaria Introduction: We present the use of a webcam to replace a laparoscopic tower and allows to dispense of the second operator for training Objective: Validation of a prototype of the endocamera with an integrated light and original support Methods: The endocamera was built using a Logitech®webcam, led lights and a 3Dprinted support.

Transplantation was performed with a living donor 1 year before for nephronophthisis. There was no urolithiasis in the father pre-transplant assessment. The ureteral stone was found on ultrasound scan 1 year after the transplantation. The ureter was reimplanted into the bladder using the Lich-Gregoir procedure, forbidding any access using standard ureteroscopy. A double J stent was first placed as the upper tract was dilated. A 5 mm port was placed through the lateral bladder wall, facing the ureteral meatus in order to introduce a guide in the renal cavities. After introducing a 6Fr sheath into the bladder a flexible ureteroscope was introduced into the ureter. A Dormia basket allowed to remove the stone. A trans-urethral catheter was left in the bladder for 4 days after the surgery. spaces/2/content/6934/file_8390_2023-07-20_08-00-20.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:20+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/4059 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/4059/thumbnail_4059_2021-05-24_12-00-11.jpg IPEG Academy - Laparoscopic Pyloromyotomy IPEG Academy - Laparoscopic Pyloromyotomy https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/1657fae8-4d78-440d-b61f-2308cdad249f/AppleHLS1/cb8624fb66c16045f9bf0b03da46561d.m3u8 2021-05-24T12:00:11+00:00 24 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7612 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7612/thumbnail_9125_2023-11-13_16-00-08.jpg IPEG 2021 - Worst Nightmare Session IPEG 2021 Annual Meeting Worst Nightmare Scientific Session spaces/2/content/7612/file_9125_2023-11-13_16-00-08.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:08+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7613 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7613/thumbnail_9126_2023-11-13_16-00-09.jpg IPEG 2021 - Technology Panel Discussion IPEG 2021 Annual Meeting Technology Panel Discussion spaces/2/content/7613/file_9126_2023-11-13_16-00-09.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:09+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7614 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7614/thumbnail_9127_2023-11-13_16-00-09.jpg IPEG 2021 - SS8 Hernia II-Simulation Based Education IPEG 2021 Annual Meeting Scientific Session 8: Hernia II - Simulation Based Education spaces/2/content/7614/file_9127_2023-11-13_16-00-09.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:09+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6944 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6944/thumbnail_6944_2023-07-20_08-00-22.jpg Laparoscopic Right Inguinal Hernia Repair in a boy: Percutaneous Medial Approach IPEG_R.IHR.Boy_2021.mp4 spaces/2/content/6944/file_8400_2023-07-20_08-00-22.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:22+00:00 3 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7615 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7615/thumbnail_9128_2023-11-13_16-00-10.jpg IPEG 2021 - SS10 Solid Organ IPEG 2021 Annual Meeting Scientific Session 10: Solid Organ spaces/2/content/7615/file_9128_2023-11-13_16-00-10.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:10+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7616 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7616/thumbnail_9129_2023-11-13_16-00-10.jpg IPEG 2021 - SS5 Gastrointestinal II IPEG 2021 Annual Meeting Scientific Session 5 - Gastrointestinal II spaces/2/content/7616/file_9129_2023-11-13_16-00-10.mp4 2023-11-13T16:00:10+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7644 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7644/thumbnail_9157_2023-11-15_00-00-06.jpg IPEG Top Abstracts From IPEG 2020 Animation Intro Slide for IPEG 2020 Top Abstracts spaces/2/content/7644/file_9157_2023-11-15_00-00-06.mp4 2023-11-15T00:00:06+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7692 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/7692/thumbnail_9205_2023-11-22_16-00-07.jpg IPEG Academy: Intracorporeal Suturing Techniques IPEG Academy Instructional Video: Intracorporeal Suturing Techniques M.C.

Outpatient workup included a CT angiogram of the chest at age 7 months which demonstrated a triangular lesion in the region of the left upper lobe. He presented for elective thoracoscopic resection of left CPAM at 9 months. Inspection of the left thorax upon entry revealed complete absence of the parietal pericardium, with the heart freely exposed to the pleural cavity. An extralobar pulmonary sequestration was diagnosed and resected. The procedure was well tolerated, and the patient discharged postoperative day 1. Complete (bilateral) agenesis is the rarest form of pericardial agenesis, and has the best prognosis without concern for herniation. Left hemiagenesis is most common, accounting for 70-80% of cases. Smaller left sided defects are the most dangerous, and should be closely evaluated for strangulation and involvement of coronary arteries prior to proceeding with pericardioplasty.

Our patient is a 43-day old male with a vascular ring comprised of a right side dominant double aortic arch. A 4mm camera port was placed in the 5th intercostal space posterior to the tip of the scapula and two 3mm working ports placed in the 7th intercostal space in the posterior axillary line and 3rd intercostal space inferior to the axilla. The left sided ductus arteriosus and recurrent laryngeal nerve were identified. The ductus arteriosus was clamped with stability of vitals prior to transection. The left aortic arch was dissected and the atretic segment clamped without change in vitals. The posterior port was upsized and the left aortic arch was transected using a 5mm stapler, releasing the vascular ring without any complications. spaces/2/content/6869/file_8325_2023-07-20_04-00-19.mp4 2023-07-20T04:00:19+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6921 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/6921/thumbnail_6921_2023-07-20_08-00-19.jpg Sacral Nerve Stimulator Placement: A Novel Surgical Navigation Tool for Complex Anatomy This video demonstrates an image-guided technique for sacral nerve stimulator insertion by Dr. Jason Frischer at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, OH.

A CPAM was diagnosed on prenatal ultrasound at 26 weeks and measured 2.2x2.8x3.5 cm. Repeat US at 36 weeks showed the size to be 3.9x2.6x3.8. The baby was delivered at 36 weeks and was asymptomatic. A CT scan at 3 months of age showed a CPAM that appeared to be limited to the lingula. The infant was taken to the OR and a anatomic lingulectomy was planned using 3 ports (4,3,5mm). An anatomic segmental resection was performed. The surgery took 90 minutes and a chest drain was left overnight and removed the following morning. The infant was discharged on the second post-operative day without complication. Anatomic segmentectomy is feasible and safe and may be appropriate in some cases of CPAM as a lung sparing alternative. spaces/2/content/6904/file_8360_2023-07-20_08-00-17.mp4 2023-07-20T08:00:17+00:00 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/3890 2026-05-25 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/3890/thumbnail_3890_2021-04-07_02-37-25.jpg IPEG 2018 - RIGHT THORACOSCOPIC REPAIR OF AN H-TYPE TRACHEOESOPHAGEAL FISTULA IPEG 2018 Annual Meeting Right Thoracoscopic Repair of an H-Type Tracheoesophageal Fistula Top 10 Abstract S.

This video explores the innovative approaches of treating genetic conditions in the womb, leveraging advantages like a more tolerant fetal immune system. Learn about prenatal diagnosis and potential treatments including maternal medications, enzyme replacement therapy, protein therapy, and stem cell interventions to prevent lifelong diseases. Colton G. Brown, Marissa Ray, Marco Carpenter, Braxton Forde, Tarun Subramanian, Haley Temple, Shivendra Tenguria, Laura Galganski Abstract Pivotal advancements in diagnostics have greatly improved early detection of disease in the fetus. Rapid diagnosis of prenatal disease, including many aneuploidies and single-gene disorders, is now possible. These capabilities present an opportunity for earlier interventions and involvement of multidisciplinary care for infants discovered to have genetic disorders. While advancements continue to be made surgically addressing anatomic pathologies, more recently, the scope of fetal medicine has expanded to include the treatment of genetic disease. This unique and growing group of conditions with potential prenatal therapeutic targets spans broadly to include inborn errors of metabolism, neurodegenerative disorders, hematologic conditions, and errors in hormone biosynthesis. Because many of these hereditary conditions begin exerting deleterious effects before birth, prenatal therapies are critical to minimize or potentially avoid postnatal consequences. Fetal treatments can leverage the benefits of early human development such as a selectively permissive blood-brain barrier and a naive immune system. These factors, along with a favorable vector-to-tissue mass ratio in the fetus, create ideal treatment conditions that are not present after birth. Together, improved prenatal diagnostics and safe minimally invasive approaches for the delivery of therapi https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12057 2026-05-18T13:38:52+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/12056 2026-05-18 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/12056-8dd24c5461.jpg Indocyanine green assists with sentinel lymph node mapping in pediatric and adolescent patients Dr. Sophia Schermerhorn from Cincinnati Children's discusses a multicenter prospective study on the accuracy of indocyanine green (ICG) for sentinel lymph node mapping in pediatric and adolescent patients with skin and soft tissue malignancies. The study, conducted by PSORC, found nearly 80% sensitivity for ICG in detecting sentinel nodes, with all malignant nodes being ICG-avid. ICG demonstrated a favorable safety profile with no adverse reactions within 30 days, avoiding the permanent tattooing sometimes seen with blue dye. This research supports ICG as an attractive visualization adjunct for pediatric sentinel lymph node biopsy, often used in conjunction with standard localization techniques.Sophia M V Schermerhorn, Emily Vore, Alexander J Bondoc, Timothy B Lautz, Samantha A Ayala, Zachary J Kastenberg, Cameron Arkin, Marcus M Malek, Insiyah Campwala, Jennifer H Aldrink, Kyle Z Horvath, Nelson Piché, Yasmin Osman, Erin G Brown, Kathleen Doyle, Paige Abril, Jonathan P Roach, Ioannis A Ziogas, Daniel S Rhee, Charbel Chidiac, Stephanie F Polites, Julia Debertin, Brian T Craig, Dave R Lal, Eugene S Kim, William G Lee, Aaron Barkhordar, Hau D Le, Devashish Joshi, Michael Stellon, Elisabeth T Tracy, Catherine Beckhorn, Dafydd A Davies, Chloé Boehmer, Roshni DasguptaBackgroundSentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy is a critical staging tool in skin and soft tissue cancers.

Early diagnosis is key to early intervention and reduced impact. This study evaluates factors associated with development and persistence of acute stress symptoms in children after injury.Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted of children 7-17 years admitted to a level 1 pediatric trauma center (2020-2024). Patients underwent acute stress screening at discharge and were categorized as asymptomatic (score 0), symptomatic (score 1-5), or positive (score 6+). Symptomatic and positive patients received a follow-up survey one month after discharge. Descriptive statistics, univariate, and multivariable logistic regression were used to evaluate factors associated with positive score at discharge and one month.Results: A total of 603 patients were screened at discharge; 143 were asymptomatic and 460 were symptomatic or positive. Younger age, female sex, Black race, assault as intent of injury and greater neighborhood deprivation level were associated with positive score, on multivariable analysis only age and sex were associated with positive score. A total of 460 patients (76.3 %) had a score of ≥1 at discharge and were eligible for a follow-up call. The follow-up screening was completed by 237 patients (51.5 %). A total of 40 (16.8 %) were positive at one month and 197 (83.1 %) scored negative.Conclusions: Most children who have symptoms of acute stress at discharge had symptom resolution at one month, however some patients remain positive or develop worsening symptoms. These findings can guide upfront interventions to address acute stress after injury. spaces/1/content/12023/file_12023_1_1778505149305.mp4 2026-05-11T13:12:29+00:00 Acute stress Pediatric trauma Post-traumatic stress Screening Trauma-informed care pediatric surgery pedsurg some4pedsurg symptomatic asymptomatic Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11337 2026-05-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/11337-c309a287b5.jpg A Modified Delphi Study to Build Consensus on Pediatric-Specific Trauma Quality Indicators Bailey K Roberts, Brendan T Campbell, Aaron R Jensen, Mauricio A Escobar, Regan F Williams, Avery Nathens, Randall S Burd, Christian J Streck, Richard Falcone, Robert W Letton, R Todd Maxson, Mark Miller, Benson S Hsu, Gregory W Albert, Elizabeth Renaud, Nilda Garcia, Julia Holmes, Christopher Hoeft, Chethan SathyaBackground: Quality improvement efforts across pediatric trauma centers have expanded recently in large part because of the American College of Surgeons Pediatric Trauma Quality Improvement Program. However, consensus on quality indicators (QI) specific to pediatric trauma that measure "quality of care" in this population is lacking. This study aims to identify pediatric-specific trauma QI.Study design: An expert panel of pediatric trauma leaders was convened. The panel met virtually to define and refine potential QI using a modified Delphi method, prioritizing indicators to include representing important QI for pediatric trauma. A comprehensive list of defined QI was created to improve the quality of pediatric trauma care.Results: 14 experts were included in the panel. After 3 rounds of anonymous voting and meetings, 52 QI were chosen, including 25 outcome, 21 process, and 6 structure variables and spanning 6 domains of quality as defined by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. Indicators comprised 22 unchanged from pTQIP, 10 adapted from currently reported in pTQIP, and 20 new. Indicators encompassed unique treatment pathways for pediatric patients, timeliness of care, screening and prevention of future injuries, and long-term outcomes.Conclusion: A modified Delphi method was used to develop a novel list of pediatric trauma QI to inform quality improvement and benchmarking efforts for pediatric trauma care. Analysis of outcomes is required to understand the accuracy and usefulness of these newly proposed and existing indicators. This study serves as a starting point for the incorporation of new QI within national quality improvement initiative https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11337 2025-12-23T15:44:16+00:00 pediatric surgery pedsurg some4pedsurg quality improvement QI pediatric trauma trauma quality of care ped trauma delphi method Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11862 2026-05-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/11862-a4c43d911b.jpg Use of Ovarian Tumor Markers in Prediction of Malignancy Risk in Pediatric and Adolescent Patients Anna M Lin, Katherine C Bergus, Josh Bricker, Mary Fallat, S Paige Hertweck, Geri Hewitt, Carley Lutz, Jennifer H Aldrink, Christina Bence, Lesley Breech, Patrick A Dillon, Cynthia Downard, Peter F Ehrlich, Samir Gadepalli, Jason D Fraser, Julia Grabowski, Michael Helmrath, Ronald B Hirschl, Rashmi Kabre, Dave R Lal, Matthew Landman, Charles Leys, Linda Cherney-Stafford, Grace Mak, Troy Markel, Joseph G Pressey, Manish Raiji, Beth Rymeski, Jacqueline Saito, Shawn D St Peter, Lindsey Asti, Katherine Deans, Peter C Minneci; Midwest Pediatric Surgery ConsortiumIntroduction: Pediatric and adolescent patients with ovarian masses undergo radiographic and serologic workup to determine malignancy risk before surgery. Commonly examined tumor markers for detecting malignancy among these patients are α-fetoprotein, β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG), cancer antigen-125, inhibin A, and lactate dehydrogenase. This study investigated the diagnostic performance of these tumor markers, individually and in combination, to assess malignancy risk in pediatric and adolescent patients with ovarian masses.Methods: This was a planned secondary analysis of a multi-institutional interventional study investigating a consensus-based, preoperative risk stratification algorithm in patients aged 6-21 y, undergoing surgery for an ovarian mass between August 2018 and February 2021 at 11 children's hospitals. All included patients underwent preoperative assessment with ≥ 1 tumor marker(s). Individual and all combinations of tumor marker performance were analyzed. A priori clinical consensus was that the optimal combination of tumor markers should minimize the misclassification of patients with malignancy (maximize negative predictive value).Results: Tumor markers were assessed in 309 out of the 519 patients, and malignancy was found in 25 patients. β-HCG was present among all the best-performing combinations. The most accurate combination was β-HCG/inhibin A/lactate dehydrogenase (accuracy = 0. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11862 2026-04-21T18:03:32+00:00 3 tumor tumor markers malignancy lactate

In the National Wilms Tumor Study Group and now Children’s Oncology Group (COG) trials, risk stratification evolved and expanded with each generation of studies, and as a result, ensuring that each patient receives the appropriate therapy has become increasingly complex. This review describes the evolution of risk-based treatment and outlines the rationale for a new risk stratification system that forms the basis for the upcoming COG favorable histology WT (FHWT) study. Additionally, topics of diagnostic and prognostic uncertainty are highlighted, with explanations of their integration into the central review determination of staging of FHWT by committee consensus to facilitate clinical classification for therapeutic studies. Clear documentation of the elements of current risk stratification are of particular importance as refinement of classification of patients with FHWT continues in effort to optimize research, personalize treatment, and provide an educational resource. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11856 2026-04-17T19:46:48+00:00 Favorable Histology Wilms tumor wilms tumor FHWT Risk Stratification Loss of Heterozygosity Heterozygosity Oncology oncologist COG Children’s Oncology Group Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11847 2026-04-17 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/11847-5377262829.jpg Pancreatitis in pediatric patients with pancreatic solid pseudopapillary neoplasms- a single center experience Stephen J Hartman, Nicolas Noriega, Raphael M Parrado, Emily Vore, Andrew Trout, David Vitale, Maisam Abu-El-Haija, Juan P GurriaBackground: Though rare, solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPN) are one of the most common, low-grade, malignant pediatric pancreatic neoplasms in children and young adults and are associated with a good prognosis. This study seeks to describe characteristics, genetics and outcomes of patients who underwent SPN resection.Methods: A single-center retrospective series of pediatric patients who underwent SPN resection from 2010 to 2023. SPN location, surgical intervention, and rates of acute recurrent and chronic pancreatitis (ARP, CP) were summarized. Patients who developed ARP/CP underwent pancreatitis-specific genetic testing.Results: Ten patients were included, all of whom were female. Median age at diagnosis was 15.0 years (13.8, 18.3). Half (n = 5) underwent preoperative endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). Five patients underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy, the remainder underwent partial pancreatectomy. Of the three patients who went on to develop post-operative ARP/CP all had SPN lesions of the pancreatic head. Individual histories were notable for an established risk alle heterozygous CFTR variant, a heterozygous CFTR variant of unknown significance, and pancreas divisum with pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) stricture respectively. One patient initially presented with acute pancreatitis with known PRSS1 MLPA duplication, but did not progress to ARP/CP. Three patients required completion pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation.Conclusions: These data represent a unique pediatric patient population requiring coordinated, multi-disciplinary care. Given the identification of either hereditary gene mutations or pancreas divisum in all patients who developed ARP/CP after SPN resection, genetic and anatomic evaluation prior to resection might provide greater understanding of post-operative outcomes after resection.

Weisberg, Benjamin J. Pieters, Meredith S. Elman, Cory J. Nonnemacher, Janelle Noel-MacDonnell, Tolulope A. OyetunjiBackground A laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is routinely used for many types of pediatric surgical procedures and as a rescue airway device. Laparoscopic procedures in pediatric surgery are common and are becoming increasingly widespread. In laparoscopic surgery, the traditional airway approach is the use of endotracheal intubation, while the use of LMA in laparoscopic surgery is not well studied. Aims To evaluate the effectiveness of general anesthesia with LMA versus traditional endotracheal tube (ETT) for pediatric patients aged 12 months to 8 years old undergoing laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. Methods In a single institution prospective randomized trial, pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair were recruited from April 2023 to May 2024. Patients were randomized to general anesthesia with either an LMA or ETT. The primary endpoint was oxygen saturation in percent saturation (SpO2) measured at three standardized timepoints. Secondary endpoints were end tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) levels and peak airway pressure (PAP) measurements at the same three standardized timepoints as well as the occurrence of any episodes of laryngospasm or desaturation documented in each group. Results Fifty patients underwent laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgery with general anesthesia, twenty-five patients with LMA and twenty-five with ETT. There was no clinically significant difference in oxygenation between study groups. Additionally, there was no statistically significant difference between study arms in EtCO2 levels. Patients with ETT had higher peak airway pressures compared to patients with LMA at all three time points. There was one incident of desaturation in each study arm and no episodes of laryngospasm. Conclusions The use of LMA in short laparoscopic surgery is a safe and effective alternative to ETT in appropriate pediatri spaces/1/content/11030/file_11030_1_1758599924056.mp4 2025-09-23T03:58:44+00:00 1 LMA endotracheal intubation pediatric surgery JPS laparoscopic surgery inguinal hernia repair Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/8747 2026-04-15 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/8747/thumbnail_10294_2024-06-17_12-43-26.jpg IPEG Academy: Left Lower Lobe Extralobar Sequestration IPEG Academy Instructional Video: Left Lower Lobe Extralobar Sequestration WJ Svetanoff, MC Mora, HD Le, G Azzie, KA Diefenbach spaces/2/content/8747/file_10294_2024-06-17_12-43-26.mp4 2024-06-17T12:43:26+00:00 8 Medical Education yes IPEG no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/316 2026-04-15 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/316/thumbnail_342_2018-09-14_23-19-58.jpg Appendicitis Irrigation Technique with ZERO Abscesses!

It is essential to determine the optimal CSI clinical prediction rule to risk stratify children with potential CSI after blunt trauma who require cervical spine imaging.Objective: To compare the test characteristics and projected imaging rates between 3 prospectively derived CSI clinical prediction rules: the Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network CSI prediction rule (PECARN CSI rule), the National Emergency X-Radiography Utilization Study (NEXUS), and the Canadian Cervical Spine (c-spine) rule (CCR).Design, setting, and participants: This comparative effectiveness study was a planned secondary analysis of a prospective observational study enrolling from December 2018 to October 2021 in 18 PECARN emergency departments. Eligible participants were children up through age 17 years presenting after blunt trauma. Data were analyzed between March 2024 and January 2025.Exposures: Enrollment in the primary study to develop and validate the PECARN CSI prediction rule.Main outcome measures: Test characteristics with 95% CIs (sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value [PPV], negative predictive value [NPV]) and area under the curve (AUC) for the receiver operator curves (ROC) for the detection of CSI using each of the 3 rules. We also estimated the projected c-spine imaging rate (radiography or computed tomography [CT]) based on criteria for each of the 3 rules.Results: There were 22 430 eligible children enrolled (median [IQR] age 8 [2.0-13.0] years; 13 068 male [58.3%]) and 433 (1.9%) had CSI. C-spine imaging was performed 12 768 children (56.9%): 8912 (39.7%) had radiography and 3856 (17.2%) were imaged wit https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11760 2026-04-07T19:13:56+00:00 1 Pediatric cervical spine injury CSI cervical spine imaging pediatric surgery some4pedsurg PECARN Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network National Emergency X-Radiography Utilization Study NEXUS Canadian Cervical Spine (c-spine) rule Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10104 2026-04-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/10104/6cd8d260e2322ea798019c909e27ba6c.jpg IPEG Academy: Right Robotic-Assisted Thoracoscopic Paraspinal Mass Resection IPEG Academy Instructional Videos: Right Robotic-Assisted Thoracoscopic Paraspinal Mass Resection W.J.

The diverse tumor types in pediatric patients and the non-uniform presentation and anatomy make 3D modeling in pediatric oncology particularly challenging. In addition, centers have variability in technique and experience with these approaches. Guidelines for model creation and quality assurance are notably absent. Objective: We developed national recommendations pertaining to image acquisition and model creation for 3-D renderings based on the existing literature and multidisciplinary expertise. Materials and Methods: The literature was critically appraised, and the authors developed minimum standard guidelines for imaging and modeling pediatric solid tumors. Strength of recommendation scores for each guideline were independently determined by the authors. Results: Twelve specific guidelines were developed and scored with overall strength of recommendation ranging from moderate to very strong. Guidelines focused on image acquisition were uniformly scored very strongly while scores for those pertaining to segmentation and model display were slightly less consistent. Conclusions: We propose minimum standards for image acquisition and modern 3-D modeling of pediatric solid tumors based on literature and expertise. The overall level of agreement among our multidisciplinary team was high. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11756 2026-04-03T18:38:37+00:00 2 pediatric surgical oncology oncology pediatric cancer operative planning model imaging 3D pediatric solid tumors pediatric surgery some4pedsurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/530 2026-04-04 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/530/thumbnail_583_2018-10-19_18-17-01.jpg How I Do It: Ponsky Lap Hernia How I do it series.

Concern over misdiagnosing IAIs has resulted in excessive use of abdominal computed tomography (CT). Despite its many benefits, CT presents risks to children most notably radiation-induced malignancies. Thus, we must safely limit abdominal CT evaluation to those at non-negligible risk. The focused assessment with sonography for trauma (FAST) examination uses abdominal ultrasonography to detect the presence of intraperitoneal fluid in injured patients and may decrease abdominal CT use in some children. Limited and conflicting data exists on the utility of the FAST examination in children. A large multicenter study is thus necessary to determine if the FAST examination should routinely be included in the diagnostic evaluation of injured children.Methods: This is a multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial to assess the impact of the FAST examination on the initial evaluation of children with blunt abdominal trauma. Enrolled participants will be randomized 1:1 to the FAST examination plus routine care or routine care alone during their initial emergency department (ED) evaluation. The study will enroll 3194 (initial sample size) to 4346 (second sample size) children at six diverse sites. The primary outcomes are as follows: (1) The proportion of abdominal CT in the initial 24 h of care and (2) the proportion of missed or delayed diagnoses of IAIs. Secondary outcomes include (1) ED length of stay, (2) hospitalization proportion and length of hospital stay, (3) physician suspicion of IAI, (4) the proportion of abdominal CT use in the subgroup of children 0 to 3 years old, and (5) laparotomy proportion.

Radiation and chemotherapy are variably employed. The optimal treatment remains uncertain, particularly for unresectable or metastatic disease and patients with neurofibromatosis type-1 (NF-1).Methods: We present data for fifty-eight patients with newly diagnosed MPNST enrolled on the Children's Oncology Group study ARST0332. Patients were treated with risk-adapted therapy including surgery with or without radiotherapy and ifosfamide and doxorubicin chemotherapy.Results: Most patients had primary tumors that were greater than 5 cm (86%), deep (95%), and invasive (74%), and 10% had distant metastases. Thirty-two (55%) patients had germline NF-1 and 26 (45%) did not. Thirty-one patients received neoadjuvant therapy and 22 were evaluable for response with 5 (23%) attaining an objective response, 10 (45%) stable disease, and 7 (32%) progressive disease. Estimated 5-year event-free survival (EFS) was 87%, 52% and 0% for the low- (n = 8), intermediate- (n = 44) and high-risk (n = 6) patients, respectively. In univariate analysis, EFS and overall survival (OS) differed by sex, presence or absence of metastatic disease, risk group, and achievement of upfront or delayed R0/R1. There was no difference in EFS or OS based on germline NF-1 status.Conclusion: The treatment strategy in ARST0332 achieved excellent outcomes for low-risk MPNST. Patients with high risk (metastatic) MPNST have poor outcomes and novel treatments are needed.

Rebecca Stark and Steven Lee from Seattle Children’s Hospital walk through the timing, technique, and evolving protocols for performing ECMO and surgical repair in cases of severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).Key Highlights:VA ECMO with bivalirudin: The presenters advocate for bivalirudin as a preferred anticoagulant over heparin due to its short half-life, predictable response, and ease of control—making it ideal for ECMO patients requiring surgery.Dilute thrombin time for monitoring: They highlight a lab-friendly technique for monitoring bivalirudin using dilute thrombin time—5x more specific and sensitive than PTT and easily implementable in any lab.Safe and timely surgical repair on ECMO: Early CDH repair (within 8–24 hours of ECMO initiation) can be performed with minimal bleeding and less tissue edema when using bivalirudin and meticulous technique.Institutional buy-in for early repair: The team underscores the importance of cross-disciplinary collaboration—including neonatologists, anesthesiologists, and weekend OR availability—to enable early ECMO repair protocols.Risk-stratified vs early repair strategy: Some centers risk-stratify ECMO patients, but Stark and Lee favor universal early repair to avoid complications associated with delayed surgery in non-weanable patients.Evolving national practices: As of this year, over 80% of CDH Study Group centers are now performing early repair on ECMO—showing how rapidly clinical protocols can shift with strong supporting data.This session emphasizes the role of proactive planning, team-based decision-making, and flexible protocol development in improving outcomes for neonates with severe CDH requiring ECMO. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10890 2025-08-27T21:35:40+00:00 2 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10106 2026-03-18 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/2/content/10106/29260a29be12fb6eddcd6626895c1f3b.jpg IPEG Academy: Thoracoscopic Aortopexy IPEG Academy Instructional Videos: Thoracoscopic Aortopexy W.J.

We evaluated the impact of pulmonary tumor burden within subgroups of similarly treated children with stage IV FHWT.Methods: Children with FHWT with pulmonary-only metastasis enrolled in AREN0533 were included. Lung nodule response assessment, by chest computed tomography after two cycles of vincristine/dactinomycin/doxorubicin (Regimen DD-4A) chemotherapy, identified rapid complete responses (RCRs) and slow incomplete pulmonary nodule responses (SIRs). Event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared by number and size of pulmonary metastases within two cohorts: (1) RCR treated with additional DD-4A without lung radiation therapy (RT) and (2) SIR treated with the original three drugs plus cyclophosphamide/etoposide (Regimen M) with lung RT. The multivariable Cox proportional hazards model for EFS and OS stratified by treatment assessed the impact of the number and size of pulmonary metastases adjusted for tumor 1q gain.Results: AREN0533 enrolled 288 children with stage IV pulmonary-only metastases, of whom 251 met inclusion criteria for outcome analyses. In the RCR cohort (n = 105), EFS and OS were not significantly different based on the number of lung metastases, whereas size of pulmonary metastases was significantly associated with EFS (P = .022), but not OS. In the SIR cohort (n = 146), EFS and OS did not differ by the number or size of lung metastases. In multivariable models, neither number nor size of lung metastases was significantly associated with EFS or OS https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11658 2026-03-10T19:29:14+00:00 wilms tumor pulmonary metastases pulmonary tumor FHWT Favorable Histology Wilms Tumor lung nodule vincristine dactinomycin doxorubicin chemotherapy Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7309 2026-03-03 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/7309/thumbnail_8799_2023-10-11_00-00-08.jpg Laparoscopic Surgical Techniques - Basic Skills and Suturing Laparoscopic Surgical Techniques - Basic Skills and Suturing spaces/1/content/7309/file_8799_2023-10-11_00-00-08.mp4 2023-10-11T00:00:08+00:00 12 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/1078 2026-03-03 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/1078/thumbnail_1206_2019-01-11_16-42-05.jpg Long Gap Technique Videos: EA & TEF Dr. Arnold Coran discusses his management of long-gap esophageal atresia, and presents a video detailing his technique for measurement of the gap utilizing a neonatal endoscope.Dr. Steven Rothenberg shows a technique video detailing his operative repair of a long-gap esophageal atresia. https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/409e602b-d8fe-4bf3-a15a-9b2211cd5142/AppleHLS1/aa5027724a2d20528a44e27028613761.m3u8 2019-01-11T16:42:05+00:00 16 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11580 2026-02-27 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/11580/file_11580_1_1772216163166.jpg Quick Literature Updates Ep 27 We’re back with 27th episode of "Quick Literature Updates" the podcast series that delivers the latest updates in pediatric surgery literature in a quick and digestible format.

Jo Cooke-Barber, Joseph G Brungardt, Michael Sorger, Joseph G Pressey, Brian Turpin, Rajaram Nagarajan, Sara Szabo, Joel Sorger, Neil Johnson, Roshni DasguptaBackground: There are no consensus guidelines regarding the use of percutaneous needle biopsy for the diagnosis of soft tissue and bone tumors. The aim of this study was to understand the efficacy of image-guided percutaneous biopsy for pediatric patients with soft tissue and bony masses, the role of intraoperative image guidance, and diagnostic accuracy.Patients and methods: A retrospective institutional chart review was performed on patients who underwent percutaneous biopsy of soft tissue or bone tumors between 2007 and 2017. Data collected included preoperative imaging, type of biopsy, demographics, insurance status, number of samples taken, and pathologic results.Results: One hundred forty-one children and young adults underwent 169 biopsies. Female patients received 48.2% of biopsies. The mean age was 14.3 ± 7.0 years. Core needle biopsies made up 89.4% of procedures, while 10.6% were fine needle aspirate. The mean number of samples per patient was 3.6 ± 2.5. All patients had imaging guidance, with computed tomography used in 44.7% of patients, 9.9% using fluoroscopy, 7.1% using ultrasound for guidance, and 53 (37.6%) patients had more than one modality. Diagnostic specimens were obtained in 97.9% of biopsies. The most common overall pathology was osteoid osteoma. The most common malignant tumors were osteosarcoma and Ewing's sarcoma.Conclusion: Image-guided percutaneous biopsy is a safe and effective method of obtaining accurate tissue samples in children and young adults with soft tissue or bone masses. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11545 2026-02-20T19:57:59+00:00 percutaneous biopsy biopsy some4pedsurg pediatric surgery soft tissue bone tumors intraoperative image guidance percutaneous bone biopsy fluoroscopy ultrasound Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/4368 2026-02-18 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/4368/thumbnail_5603_2021-07-30_08-02-09.jpg Umbilical Hernia Repair in Children Anatomical Repair Hidden incision Dr....

While typically benign, SCTs carry an undefined risk of recurrence and malignant transformation, making post-resection surveillance critical. However, no consensus guidelines exist to direct post-resection surveillance. We conducted a multi-institutional retrospective cohort study across 11 pediatric institutions in the Midwest Pediatric Surgery Research Consortium. The study included patients 18 years or younger who underwent SCT resection from January 2010 to December 2020, excluding those with Currarino syndrome. The primary outcome was SCT recurrence, assessed via clinical exams, imaging, and tumor markers. Secondary outcomes included recurrence histology and surveillance practices. Cox proportional hazards modeling evaluated recurrence risk factors. Of the 178 patients, 10% experienced recurrence during a median follow-up period of 2.88 years (IQR: 1.52, 4.80). Overall recurrence-free survival for the entire cohort was 93.7%, 88.8%, and 88.8% at 1, 3, and 5 years, respectively. Malignant histopathology was the only factor significantly associated with recurrence (HR 5.83, p = .014). The timing of SCT diagnosis, completeness of resection, and Altman classification were not significantly associated with recurrence. Surveillance strategies varied significantly across institutions, with no standardized protocol for follow-up. The majority of recurrences occurred within the first 3 years post-resection, with malignant histopathology being the strongest predictor. For lower risk tumors (mature and immature teratomas), a minimum of 3 years of surveillance, including imag spaces/1/content/11420/file_11420_1_1769462445925.mp4 2026-01-26T21:20:45+00:00 1 Sacrococcygeal teratomas SCTs immature teratoma malignant germ cell tumor mature teratoma sacrococcygeal teratoma surveillance tumor neonates Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/326 2026-02-12 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/326/thumbnail_352_2018-09-14_23-19-59.jpg Nonmetastatic Nonrhabdomyosarcoma Soft Tissue Sarcoma Re-excision after unplanned resection of nonmetastatic nonrhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcoma in children: Comparison with planned excision: JPS article Short Video Presentation Dr. Todd Ponsky spaces/1/content/326/file_352_2018-09-14_23-19-59.mp4 2018-09-14T23:19:59+00:00 3 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/980 2026-02-12 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/980/thumbnail_1108_2019-01-11_16-41-46.jpg Soft Tissue Sarcoma Rapid Fire: Update Course 2015 Dr. Andrea Hayes Jordan discusses soft tissue sarcomas.

But treatment strategies have changed dramatically over the past 25 years. That’s why today, were going to review the basics-with an expert. 00:27:38-0027:45 “hepatoblastoma, 200-250 cases a year, huge changes in treatment algorithms over the last 20 years” That’s Dr. Greg Tiao-Pediatric Transplant surgeon at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. He’s going to walk us through everything you need to know about Hepatoblastoma. Stick around. This is the StayCurrent in Pediatric Surgery Podcast…. I’ll start by setting the scene, a child comes into the hospital with an abdominal mass and even though we are specifically talking about hepatoblastoma, we need to have a pretty wide differential diagnosis. That’s right, hepatoblastoma is the most common malignant liver tumor in children but it’s nowhere near the most common liver tumor or the most common abdominal malignancy. When I’m recalling the most common abdominal malignancy in children, I recall this being somewhat controversial. But most would consider it to be neuroblastoma 27:15- 27:37 “correct, a bit of a toss up who you talk to, neuroblastoma or wilms. Neuroblastoma is the most common because of all the satellite lesions, but wilms is the more frequent completely intrabdominal” One thing’s for sure, once you have imaging and determine the tumor is coming from the liver your differential should consider hepatoblastoma in addition to hemangioma, fibronodular hyperplasia, hamartomas, and hepatocellular carcinoma. But common things being common, hemangioma should be pretty high on the list. (show background slide at 25:38) 9:08- 9:15 “right, benign growths, we see a lot of them, hemangiomas” 25:34- 25:36 “most common is hemangioma” Even though hepatoblastoma is the most common malignant liver tumor in kids, but still pretty rare overall only effecting about 250 kids a year.

Indocyanine green (ICG) has been described as an adjunct to resection in small series. Its utility remains undefined in larger cohorts.Methods: Records for 29 patients diagnosed with hepatoblastoma who received ICG prior to surgical resection from 2017 to 2020 at a single institution were retrospectively reviewed. The primary outcome was correlation between intraoperative ICG-avidity and histologic presence of hepatoblastoma. A secondary outcome included the histologic margin designation for resected liver specimens.Results: ICG sensitivity was 91% for 120 resected thoracic specimens from 21 patients. Specificity was 57%. In 10% of operations, HB-positive specimens were resected solely on ICG-avidity. In an additional 40% of cases, ICG assisted in localizing a preoperatively diagnosed lesion. ICG sensitivity during thoracotomy and thoracoscopic surgery was 95 and 74%, respectively; primary and relapsed disease demonstrated sensitivity of 94 and 73%, respectively. Sensitivity was 92% for 25 resected liver specimens from nine patients with all parenchymal margins grossly negative for disease. Four multifocal lesions were identified with two resected solely by ICG-avidity.Conclusions: ICG is a sensitive adjunct for identifying local and metastatic hepatoblastoma, including lesions not visualized on preoperative imaging, and delineating margins during liver resection. False positives limit specificity; however, there were no adverse outcomes from additional resections. We noted that thoracoscopic surgery can be completed safely in patients with less significant disease burden, and conversion to thoracotomy, if necessary, is straightforward. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11416 2026-01-23T14:39:47+00:00 epatectomy hepatoblastoma indocyanine green metastasectomy pediatric surgery thoracoscopy thoracotomy ICG ped surg some4pedsurg Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11394 2026-01-19 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/thumbnails/agent/11394-8bb6f62332.jpg Retreatment with Cisplatin May Provide a Survival Advantage for Children with Relapsed/Refractory Hepatoblastoma: An Institutional Experience Katherine M Somers, Rachel Bernstein Tabbouche, Alexander Bondoc, Alexander J Towbin, Sarangarajan Ranganathan, Greg Tiao, James I GellerBackground: Hepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common liver malignancy in children. There is no standard of care for management of relapsed/refractory HB (rrHB) and reports in the literature are limited.Objective: To describe presenting features, biology, treatment strategies, and outcomes for pediatric patients with relapsed/refractory hepatoblastoma.Methods: An IRB-approved retrospective institutional review of patients with rrHB who presented for consultation and/or care from 2000-2019. Clinical, radiographic, and histologic data were collected from all patients.Results: Thirty subjects were identified with a median age of 19.5 months (range 3-169 months) at initial diagnosis and 32.5 months (range 12-194 months) at time of first relapse. 63% of subjects were male, 70% Caucasian, and 13% were born premature. Three subjects had a known cancer predisposition syndrome. Eight patients had refractory disease while 22 patients had relapsed disease. Average time from initial diagnosis to relapse or progression was 12.5 months. Average alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) at initial diagnosis was 601,203 ng/mL (range 121-2,287,251 ng/mL). Average AFP at relapse was 12,261 ng/mL (range 2.8-201,000 ng/mL). For patients with tumor sequencing (n = 17), the most common mutations were in CTNNB1 (13) and NRF2 (4). First relapse sites were lungs (n = 12), liver (n = 11) and both (n = 6). More than one relapse/progression occurred in 47% of subjects; 6 had ≥3 relapses. Pathology in patients with multiply relapsed disease was less differentiated including descriptions of small cell undifferentiated (n = 3), pleomorphic (n = 1), transitional liver cell tumor (n = 2) and HB with carcinoma features (n = 1). All subjects underwent surgical resection of site of relapsed disease with 7 subjects requiring liver transplantation. Overall survival was 50%.

TTC requires a surgical procedure for the removal of testicular tissue, advanced tissue processing capabilities, and long-term tissue storage at a cryopreservation facility. The goal of this work is to evaluate the surgical and pathologic outcomes of patients enrolled in an ongoing clinical protocol for fertility preservation in children.Methods: Patients were prospectively enrolled in an IRB-approved protocol from 2015 to 2023 at a single institution. Children were eligible for enrollment if they possessed a fertility threatening diagnosis or required treatment that placed them at high level of increased risk for prolonged azoospermia. In this work we report patient characteristics, surgical outcomes, and pathologic findings of our cohort.Results: TTC was performed for 144 patients. The median age of patients was 8.89 years (Range: 0.3-24.5 years). Most patients were prepubertal (n = 126, 87.5 %) and carried a diagnosis of malignancy (n = 117, 81.2 %). Overall, 45.8 % of patients received pre-operative chemotherapy. There was a low rate of TTC-related surgical complications (n = 3, 2.1 %). Germ cells were present in 97.9 % (141/144) of samples. Malignancy was discovered in testicular tissue in 1.4 % (n = 2) of patients. Of the initially enrolled cohort, 89.4 % (n = 129) are living.Conclusions: Testicular tissue cryopreservation is a safe and effective procedure for fertility preservation in the pediatric population. Germ cells were present in nearly all preserved tissue, providing the possibility of future fertility restoration in these children pending further scientific advancement. spaces/1/content/11217/file_11217_1_1762533543659.mp4 2025-11-07T16:39:03+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/6528 2025-10-28 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/34/content/6528/thumbnail_6528_2023-03-30_16-00-11.jpg Meconium Ileus: Presentation, Workup, Diagnosis & Treatment Options Meconium ileus can present with a range of symptoms so here, we cover the basics of presentation, differentiation, diagnosis, surgical approach, and post operative management with Dr. Beth Rymeski.

I’m Todd Ponsky and this is the StayCurrent in Pediatric Surgery Podcast . . . Intro music/video clip Let’s start out with a textbook image of gastroschisis. If you’re listening to the audio version of this podcast, scroll down under the media player and we’ll give you the link to this and every other image that Dr. Lim will discuss. /14:28-14:44/ Don’t worry, we’ll get further into the details later. Now let's take a look at Omphalocele!!!So Gastroschisis is a full thickness abdominal wall defect just to the right of the umbilicus in which peritoneal contents – most often intestines – protrude thru the abdomen without any membranous cover. Let’s compare that to the next image which shows omphalocele. Show still image from slides at 15:00 The obvious difference is the membrane covering the herniated contents but another difference . . . /14:53-15:0315:11/ So prenatal diagnosis is an important factor in identifying these conditions. But are the warning signs we should be looking for obvious ? /19:51-20:1519:57/ Dr Lim !!! What about imaging!The AFP is a great screening test but you need ultrasound imaging to definitely diagnose these abdominal wall defects. /20:1921-20:347/ Because these patients may also have other associated anomalies. Now, lLuckily, once we get the imaging, we can then follow a protocol to follow it up. As you can see here, we track their fetal growth monthly because there is concern for significant growth restriction. /30:5331:14 - 31:18/ Ok wait, why do we need to do biophysical profile and non stress testing? /31.19 - 31.2640/ So if the surveillance imaging becomes worrisome enough that you’re converned about intrauterine fetal demise, the mother and fetus need to be admitted for continuous monito https://d1dnj0gz56dmdu.cloudfront.net/7f203ca2-f6de-4666-86ec-a64415adf41c/AppleHLS1/2018c25edc5245de613933235b58e1d5.m3u8 2022-03-23T22:05:49+00:00 6 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/960 2025-10-08 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/960/thumbnail_1088_2019-01-11_16-41-44.jpg Sutureless Gastroschisis Repair: Technique This video demonstrates the technique of the sutureless plastic closure for gastroschisis.

Todd Maxson ∙ Mark Miller∙ Benson S. Hsu ∙ Gregory W. Albert ∙ Elizabeth Renaud∙ Nilda Garcia ∙ Julia Holmes ∙ Christopher Hoeft ∙ Chethan SathyaBackground Quality improvement efforts across pediatric trauma centers have expanded recently in large part because of the American College of Surgeons Pediatric Trauma Quality Improvement Program. However, consensus on quality indicators (QI) specific to pediatric trauma that measure “quality of care” in this population is lacking. This study aims to identify pediatric-specific trauma QI. Study design An expert panel of pediatric trauma leaders was convened. The panel met virtually to define and refine potential QI using a modified Delphi method, prioritizing indicators to include representing important QI for pediatric trauma. A comprehensive list of defined QI was created to improve the quality of pediatric trauma care. Results 14 experts were included in the panel. After 3 rounds of anonymous voting and meetings, 52 QI were chosen, including 25 outcome, 21 process, and 6 structure variables and spanning 6 domains of quality as defined by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. Indicators comprised 22 unchanged from pTQIP, 10 adapted from currently reported in pTQIP, and 20 new. Indicators encompassed unique treatment pathways for pediatric patients, timeliness of care, screening and prevention of future injuries, and long-term outcomes. Conclusion A modified Delphi method was used to develop a novel list of pediatric trauma QI to inform quality improvement and benchmarking efforts for pediatric trauma care. Analysis of outcomes is required to understand the accuracy and usefulness of these newly proposed and existing indicators. This study serves as a starting point for the incorporation of new QI within national quali https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/11028 2025-09-23T03:54:35+00:00 pediatric trauma quality improvement pediatric surgery Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10910 2025-09-23 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/17/content/10910/thumbnail_10910_1_1756410938365.jpg 2025 Pediatric Surgery Update Course - Updates in Lap Chole and Cholecystitis Management On August 26th, the largest Pediatric Surgery course in the world each year was held, where top hospital experts from around the US will discuss this year’s changes in practices and innovation.

The team used a combination of resorbable molded plates, Permacol mesh, and Gore-Tex patches to stabilize and recreate the chest wall structure.Soft tissue closure with latissimus flap: A latissimus dorsi flap was mobilized for robust coverage, reducing dead space and supporting tissue healing over the reconstructed area.Use of ROLL technique for lymph node excision: The team employed radio-guided occult lesion localization (ROLL) using Technetium-99 to precisely identify and remove targeted lymph nodes.Managing early complications: Postoperative challenges included sterile seromas, a wound infection, and mild scoliosis—all managed conservatively with good outcomes.Addressing recurrence and reoperation: When local recurrence occurred 18 months later, a second reconstruction involving the sternum and cement mesh was required, illustrating the long-term complexity of these cases.Future outlook for pediatric reconstructions: Dr. Mutch emphasized the lack of standardization in pediatric materials and techniques, pointing toward a future where custom 3D-printed implants and biologics may offer better long-term solutions.This session highlights the surgical precision, interdisciplinary coordination, and resilience required to manage large-scale reconstructions in growing children—where both oncologic control and functional outcomes must be balanced. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/10839 2025-08-20T14:21:38+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/7605 2025-08-17 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/7/content/7605/thumbnail_9118_2023-11-10_16-00-07.JPG What is Esophageal Achalasia?

Background Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS®) Society guidelines integrate evidence-based practices into multimodal care pathways that have improved outcomes in multiple adult surgical specialties. There are currently no pediatric ERAS® Society guidelines. We created an ERAS® guideline designed to enhance quality of care in neonatal intestinal resection surgery. Methods A multidisciplinary guideline generation group defined the scope, population, and guideline topics. Systematic reviews were supplemented by targeted searching and expert identification to identify 3514 publications that were screened to develop and support recommendations. Final recommendations were determined through consensus and were assessed for evidence quality and recommendation strength. Parental input was attained throughout the process. Results Final recommendations ranged from communication strategies to antibiotic use. Topics with poor-quality and conflicting evidence were eliminated. Several recommendations were combined. The quality of supporting evidence was variable. Seventeen final recommendations are included in the proposed guideline. Discussion We have developed a comprehensive, evidence-based ERAS guideline for neonates undergoing intestinal resection surgery. This guideline, and its creation process, provides a foundation for future ERAS guideline development and can ultimately lead to improved perioperative care across a variety of pediatric surgical specialties.

Telemonitoring… Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell! Telemonitoring is the use of information technology to monitor patients at a distance. This monitoring involves recording vital signs, for example, blood pressure and pulse, and transmitting this information electronically which allows the patient's medical team to track and monitor a patient's vitals on a regular basis, then use this data to identify signs of deterioration, intervene promptly and prevent admission to hospital. With COVID-19, healthcare systems had to rethink the optimal delivery of healthcare services and this has increased the demand for general medicine providers like internal medicine, family medicine, and emergency medicine. journals.lww.com/journalpatientsafety/Fulltext/2021/12000/Inpatient_Respiratory_Arrest_Associated_With.5.aspx Before the pandemic, data suggested that routinely monitoring hospitalized patients with continuous pulse oximetry and heart rate devices was associated with reduced mortality. In this study, which involved more than a hundred thousand patient discharges, early recognition of hypoxemia and respiratory depression were largely responsible for the observed decrease in mortality. bmcprimcare.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12875-018-0814-6 Here is another article where, “The focus group included 181 patients and telemonitoring was valued by those who found it empowering and convenient.

Telementoring… Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell! By definition, telementoring is “a relationship, facilitated by telecommunication technology, in which an expert provides guidance to a less experienced learner from a remote location.” Previous research has shown us that telementoring can be used effectively and reliably as a surgical training aid. But, how did it start? In the traditional residency training model, a resident (trainee) spends day in and day out with an expert learning by watching the expert. Then the expert watches the trainee over and over again and over time, the trainee gets more and more autonomy. But then we graduate and we go off into practice and we're like on an island by ourselves, especially as all these new devices and technologies are developed. How do we learn new techniques once we're in practice? So they created a model of how a practicing surgeon can learn a new technique. Step one is a course or didactic instruction. Step two is that the trainee watches the expert physically in the operating room. And at this point, they institute a simulation model of one that exists in preparation for step three, which is that the trainee actually performs the case and the experts watching them physically there in the operating room. So then because it's difficult in practice to keep traveling, to go watch the expert over and over again, we've instituted the concept of telementoring. Telementoring allows for the two surgeons to work together virtually in classes where the expert can actually watch the trainee and certify that they actually are able to do the case on their own.

Telehealth vs Telemedicine… Here’s what you need to know in a nutshell! Telemedicine also known as telepractice is defined by the Federation of State Medical Boards as “the practice of medicine using electronic communication, information technology, or other means between a physician in one location, and a patient in another location, with or without an intervening health care provider.” Even though we can see that telehealth and telemedicine terms can be used interchangeably, telehealth is different. Telehealth refers broadly to electronic and telecommunications technologies and services including the internet, video conferencing, store-and-forward imaging, streaming media, and wireless communications used to provide care and services at-a-distance.

So they asked Dr. Ponsky to teach us about the humble beginnings of the PEG – Well, they asked Dr. Jeff Ponsky. But his son, Dr. Todd Ponsky, couldn’t help but jump in too. Here, the father-son duo explain how the PEG was invented all those decades ago! A gastrostomy tube -- commonly abbreviated as "G-tube" -- is a tube that is placed into a patient's stomach. The word "gastrostomy" comes from two Latin root words for "stomach" (gastr) and "new opening" (stomy). This tube is used to give a child an alternate way to get their fluid, nutrition, and / or medications. It may also be used to vent a patient's stomach for air. https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5239 2022-03-21T18:00:16+00:00 1 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5619 2024-02-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/5619/thumbnail_6867_2022-07-27_16-00-20.jpg Pediatric Social Risk Screening: Leveraging Research to Ensure Equity "Pediatric Social Risk Screening: Leveraging Research to Ensure Equity" Cullen et al, Academic Pediatrics Full article: www.academicpedsjnl.net/article/S1876-2859(21)00452-6/fulltext Video by: Ellen Encisco https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/5619 2022-07-27T16:00:20+00:00 Medical Education yes StayCurrentMD no https://library.globalcastmd.com/video/4393 2024-02-10 monthly 0.7 https://d1u4wu4o55kmvh.cloudfront.net/spaces/1/content/4393/thumbnail_5628_2021-08-06_16-00-14.jpg Pediatric Open Herniotomy in boys 15 Minutes Unedited Dr. Tamer Ashraf Wafa In this video, open inguinal hernia repair is demonstrated.

Here's another video about digital twin technology… This time we're talking about applications of digital twin to healthcare. Here's what you need to know about Digital Twins! A digital twin is a virtual representation of an object or system that is updated from real-time data, and uses simulation, machine learning and reasoning to help decision-making. The first practical definition of digital twin originated from NASA in an attempt to improve physical model simulation of spacecraft in 2010. With the help of a digital twin, companies can test and validate a product before it even exists in the real world. Generally, by creating a replica of the planned production process, a digital twin enables engineers to identify any process failures before the product goes into production. The use of cognitive computing increases the abilities and scientific disciplines in the digital twin. Technologies and techniques such as Natural Language Processing (NLP), machine learning, object/visual recognition, acoustic analytics, and signal processing are just a few of features used for creating digital twins. Going forward there will be a transition towards cheaper, more accessible, and easier to use digital twins culminating in its democratization. Individuals and smaller companies will have access to the benefits as well as larger companies, increasing the use of the technology rapidly.

In this article from the New England Journal of Medicine, the Teen-LABS consortium looked at five-year outcomes after bariatric surgery. They compared obese adolescent patients who had surgery as adolescents to those who had surgery as adults. They found significant differences in remission of type II diabetes and hypertension in those who had surgery as adolescents. However, they also found increased rates of repeat abdominal operations and low ferritin levels. This study highlights potential advantages of bariatric surgery in adolescent patients, while also showcasing potential challenges.
