BACKGROUND: Pyloric stenosis, the most common surgical condition of infants, is treated by longitudinal myotomy of the pylorus. Comparative studies to date between open and laparoscopic pyloromyotomy have been retrospective and report conflicting results. To scientifically compare the 2 techniques, we conducted the first large prospective, randomized trial between the 2 approaches.

METHODS: After obtaining IRB approval, subjects with ultrasound-proven pyloric stenosis were randomized to either open or laparoscopic pyloromyotomy. Postoperative pain management, feeding schedule, and discharge criteria were identical for both groups. Operating time, postoperative emesis, analgesia requirements, time to full feeding, length of hospitalization after operation, and complications …

A Anomalia Anorretal é uma importante causa de obstrução gastrintestinal, com alta taxa de morbi-mortalidade em recém-natos. Há diversos mecanismos patológicos possíveis para explicar esta malformação e duas explicações clássicas de sua gênese são um defeito de recanalização do tubo intestinalou uma interrupção no suprimento sanguíneo durante a vida intra-uterina, entretanto a causa ainda é desconhecida. Desta forma, o presenteestudo tem por objetivo descrever um caso clínico de uma criança internada em um Hospital do Município de Maringá-PR, portadora de uma anomalia anorretal (Ânus imper-furado). Para este estudo, foram coletados dados do prontuário da criança, exame físico e uma entrevista …
