1History of the infantile hepatic hemangioma:From imaging to generating a differential diagnosis显示文摘We aim to provide an up-to-date summary of infantile hepatic hemangioma(IHH) and its misnomers and to dialectically present the differential diagnosis of these rare entities of the liver.Eligible peer-reviewed articles on hepatic infantile hemangiomas,published between 2000 and 2015,were reviewed for this study.IHH is the most common hepatic vascular tumor in children.Once a liver mass is identified in an infant,the differential diagnosis ranges from vascular malformations to benign and malignant tumors including mesenchymal hamartoma,hepatoblastoma,metastatic neuroblastoma,so careful physical examination,imaging studies,and,if indicated,tumor markers and biopsy,are of pivotal importance to ascertain the correct diagnosis.Despite the benign nature of IHHs,some of these lesions may demand medical and/or surgical intervention,especially for multiple and diffuse IHH.Complications can include hepatomegaly,hypothyroidism and cardiac failure.Therefore,a close follow-up is required until complete involution of the lesions.We propose an algorithm to guide the physicians towards the proper management of hepatic lesions.Maria Gnarra Gerald Behr Alison Kitajewski June K Wu Sudha A Anupindi Carrie J Shawber Nick Zavras Dimitrios Schizas Chris Salakos Konstantinos P Economopoulos 2016World Journal of Clinical Pediatrics2016,5,3:27
2Antioxidants in experimental ischemia-reperfusion injury of the testis: Where are we heading towards?显示文摘Testicular torsion(TT) is a medical emergency that primary affects newborns and young adolescents.It causes testicular injury due to the torsion of the spermatic cord and its components, initially in the venous blood flow and finally in the arterial blood flow.Prompt diagnosis and early surgical management are necessary in managing this urgent situation.The process of the pathophysiological events in ischemia-reperfusion is multifactorial and deals with the perception of the oxidative stress responsible for the consequences of ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) stress following TT.Duration and severity of torsion also play a significant role in the oxidative stress.A detrimental result of the defense system of the testes takes place resulting finally in testicular atrophy and impaired function.Antioxidant factors have been experimentally studied in an effort to front this state.They have been classified as endogenous or exogenous antioxidants.Endogenous antioxidants comprise a structure of enzymic enzymatic and nonenzymic enzymatic particles presented within cytoplasm and numerous other subunits in the cells.Exogenous antioxidants include a variety of natural and pharmaceutical agents that may prevent or ameliorate the harmful effects of I/R injury.In this study we review those factors and their ability to enhance the oxidative status of the testis.A feature insight into where we are heading is attempted.George Vaos Nick Zavras 2017World Journal of Methodology2017,7,2:4
3Management of complicated acute appendicitis in children:Still an existing controversy显示文摘Complicated acute appendicitis(CAA)is a serious condition and carries significant morbidity in children.A strict diagnosis is challenging,as there are many lesions that mimic CAA.The management of CAA is still controversial.There are two options for treatment:Immediate operative management and nonoperative management with antibiotics and/or drainage of any abscess or phlegmon.Each method of treatment has advantages and disadvantages.Operative management may be difficult due to the presence of inflamed tissues and may lead to detrimental events.In many cases,non-operative management with or without drainage and interval appendectomy is advised.The reasons for this approach include new medications and policies for the use of antibiotic therapy.Furthermore,advances in radiological interventions may overcome difficulties such as diagnosing and managing the complications of CAA without any surgeries.However,questions have been raised about the risk of recurrence,prolonged use of antibiotics,lengthened hospital stay and delay in returning to daily activities.Moreover,the need for interval appendectomy is currently under debate because of the low risk of recurrence.Due to the paucity of high-quality studies,more randomized controlled trials to determine the precise management strategy are needed.This review aims to study the current data on operative vs non-operative management for CAA in children and to extract any useful information from the literature.Nick Zavras George Vaos 2020World Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery2020,12,4:1
