RESUMO
Spigelian hernia is very rare in the paediatric age group. We present the case of an 11-month-old male child who presented with left Spigelian hernia with the left undescended testis in its sac. Hernia repair with orchidopexy was done using total laparoscopic approach. It is the first reported case of total laparoscopic repair of Spigelian hernia with undescended testis in the paediatric age group.
RESUMO
Traditional management of infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis is open pyloromyotomy after initial adequate resuscitation of the patient. From 1991, laparoscopic approach is considered feasible and safe. Today, diagnosis of hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is made most often made by ultrasound. With use of ultrasound-guided parameters (length of pyloric tumour and thickness of pyloric tumour), we could avoid 'incomplete pyloromyotomy' and 'mucosal perforation' (most common complications in laparoscopic approach) to achieve 100% adequacy and safety in laparoscopic pyloromyotomy.
