Filter by:One of the most common pediatric urology procedures is hypospadias repair, a surgery to correct curvature of the penis and move the urethral meatus into the glans. A survey of pediatric urologists demonstrated that 72% of pediatric urologists prescribe opioid pain medication following the procedure. Using a validated questionnaire, the investigators aim to quantify how much opioid pain medication boys undergoing hypospadias repair require and if opioid pain medication can be eliminated from the routine postoperative medication regimen.
Hypospadias is a frequent malformation. The definition of hypospadias is a ventral tissues hypoplasia, with an abnormal position of the urethral meatus, a chordee of the penis and an open foreskin. It can be associate with other genital malformation; in that case it can be classified in the wider field of the disorder of sex development (DSD). There is a lot of surgical technics for those malformations. In the pediatric surgical department, in Lyon, three technics are the most used because of their reliability and their good outcomes in short and mid term. This is essential for investigator to have a long term evaluation, with a physical exam and paraclinical exams, after the puberty, to assess the outcomes after the changes especially at the puberty.
To investigate whether the addition of intravenous paracetamol with caudal ropivacaine leads to better quality of postoperative recovery in patients undergoing hypospadius repair than caudal ropivacaine alone. The quality of recovery will be judged by postoperative analgesia requirement and lesser agitation in the postoperative period.
Hypospadias is one of the most common congenital malformations of the genitalia in boys, and is typically managed by surgical intervention. During pediatric urological surgery, caudal anesthesia is one of the most common regional anesthetic techniques used. Also known as caudal block, it has been shown to be a safe and effective anesthetic technique in children with a low incidence of anesthesia-related complications.While the reported incidence of complications directly associated with caudal block is low, there is scarce and inconclusive evidence on the impact of caudal anesthesia on the incidence of surgical complications. As a result, the objective of this superiority, randomized controlled trial is to assess whether the use of caudal anesthesia, when compared to dorsal penile block, is associated with a higher rate of urethrocutaneous fistulas and glans dehiscence post hypospadias repair.
A comparison between the two hemostatic methods of hypospadias repairing operation, in terms of early and mid-term (up to 6 months) failure rate (wound dehiscence and urethral stricture needing reoperation) between the two groups: Group A) diluted Epinephrine injection, Group B) tourniquet application in children
Patients with biochemically confirmed SLOS are being treated with cholesterol supplementation and antioxidant medication. They are carefully monitored with visits to clinic, laboratory testing including cholesterol and 7-dehydrocholesterol levels, vitamin levels, blood counts and liver and kidney function. On a serial basis, no more often than once a year, the patients undergo a series of tests under anesthesia, including electroretinogram (ERG), brainstem audiometry (ABR), and ophthalmologic exam under anesthesia to follow pigmentary retinopathy.
OBJECTIVES: I. Examine the intestinal absorption of dietary cholesterol in patients with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome. II. Measure the effect of dietary cholesterol on plasma sterol composition. III. Quantify basal cholesterol synthesis, turnover of cholesterol and 7-dehydrocholesterol, and the effects of dietary cholesterol on these parameters. IV. Identify fecal bile acid excretion quantitatively and qualitatively in these patients. V. Compare the incorporation of deuterated water into plasma cholesterol, 7-dehydrocholesterol, and other intermediates, and assess the effect of dietary cholesterol on this incorporation.
