ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to provide clinical evidence supporting the safety and effectiveness of laparoscopic surgical glue injection hernioplasty (LSGIH) for indirect inguinal hernia repair in female patients. METHODS: We conducted a prospective study of LSGIH beginning in January 2013. N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate was used as the surgical glue for closure of the hernia sac. Twenty-eight female patients with a mean age of 51.1 ± 35.3 months (24 days to 10 years) received LSGIH. The total number of LSGIH operations was 42, including bilateral inguinal hernioplasties. RESULTS: Postoperatively, all the patients were discharged from the hospital within 24 hours without incident. The mean operation time for LSGIH was 41.0 ± 9.7 minutes (30-66 minutes). The mean follow-up period was 23.2 ± 8.3 months (14.6-38.2 months) up to now. There were no postoperative complications or recurrences during the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS: Our prospective study supports LSGIH as a simple, safe, and useful technique for pediatric inguinal hernioplasty. This method required only one working port and one camera port. However, further clinical prospective trials, including male patients, should be performed to confirm the long-term safety and effectiveness of LSGIH.

ABSTRACT

Intestinal perforation is an extremely rare complication of hemangioma of the small intestine in the neonatal period. This is a case report of a 27-days-old male infant who presented with signs and symptoms of acute intestinal obstruction. Exploratory laparotomy findings revealed intestinal perforation due to solitary hemangioma in the ileum, which led to obstruction from peritoneal reaction and adhesions. There are two reported cases in the literature presenting with ileal perforation in the pediatric age group, but only one previous report mentioned in the neonatal period. Because there are other more common causes of perforation in the neonatal period, intestinal hemangioma in spite of its rarity should be included in the differential diagnosis.
