A Case of Refractory Childhood Glaucoma Secondary to Weill-Marchesani Syndrome: Management with Combined CO2 Laser-Assisted Sclerectomy Surgery and Trabeculectomy

A 2-year-old girl was diagnosed as Weill-Marchesani syndrome with typical systemic features of short stature, short and stubby hands and feet, language disorders and mental retardation. He developed bilateral angle closure glaucoma, ectopia lentis and suffered visual loss from the ocular features of Weill-Marchesani syndrome. The child was successfully treated by combined CO₂ laser-assisted sclerectomy surgery and trabeculectomy.     

National level data analysis of facial lacerations in Korea using the National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) database

No national epidemiological investigations have been conducted recently regarding facial lacerations. The study was performed using the data of 3,634,229 people during the 5-year period from 2014 to 2018 archived by the National Health Information Database (NHID) of the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service. Preschool and children under 10 years old accounted for about one-third of patients. Facial lacerations were concentrated in the “T-shaped” area, which comprised forehead, nose, lips, and the perioral area. The male to female ratio for all study subjects was 2.16:1. Age and gender are significantly related with each other (P < .001). Mean hospital stays decreased, and numbers of outpatient department visits per patient were highest for hospitals and lowest for health agencies. Over the study period, hospital costs per patient in tertiary and general hospitals increased gradually. Preschool and school-aged children are vulnerable to trauma. Male patients outnumbered female patients by a factor of more than 2. The “T-shaped’” area around forehead is vulnerable to injury. Total cost of medical care benefits per patient in tertiary hospitals was about 7 times on average than in health agencies. Regarding functional, behavioral, and aesthetic outcomes, more attention should be paid to epidemiologic data and hospital costs for facial lacerations.     

Persistent acidosis after reperfusion—A prognostic indicator of increased 30‐day and in‐hospital postoperative mortality in liver transplant recipients

During liver transplantation, the patient is at risk of developing progressive lactic acidosis. Following reperfusion, correction of acidosis may occur. In some patients, acidosis will worsen, a phenomenon referred to as persistent acidosis after reperfusion (PAAR). We compared postoperative outcomes in patients who manifested PAAR vs those that did not. All adult patients undergoing liver transplantation from 2002 to 2015 were included. PAAR is defined by the presence of a significant negative slope coefficient for base excess values measured after hepatic artery anastomosis through 72 hours postoperatively. Primary outcome was a composite of 30‐day and in‐hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes included: ICU LOS, total hospital LOS, and re‐transplantation rate within 7 days. PAAR occurred in 10% of the transplant recipients. Patients with PAAR had higher MELD, BMI, and eGFR and demonstrated a longer median ICU LOS and hospital median LOS with a trend toward mortality difference. But, after propensity matching, the mortality rate difference became significantly higher in patients with PAAR compared with matched controls while the ICU LOS differences disappeared. The re‐transplantation rates were similar also between the PAAR and no PAAR groups. The cohort with PAAR had a significant 30‐day and in‐hospital increase in mortality after propensity score matching.

改良Duplay术和Duckett术在儿童中重度尿道下裂中的临床应用比较

目的 比较改良分期尿道板纵切卷管尿道成形术（改良Duplay术）和一期横形带蒂岛状包皮皮瓣尿道成形术（Duckett术）治疗儿童中重度尿道下裂的疗效。方法 收集81例中重度尿道下裂患儿的临床资料,根据术式不同分为改良Duplay术式组45例和Duckett术式组36例。比较2组的手术时间、出血量、住院费用、术后并发症和患儿家属对手术的满意度及治愈率。结果 与Duckett术式组比较,改良Duplay术式组的手术时间较短,尿道狭窄和尿道憩室的发生率较低（P均< 0.05）。2组的出血量、住院费用、尿瘘和龟头裂开的发生率和治愈率比较差异均无统计学意义（P均> 0.05）。Duckett术式组患儿家属对手术的满意度高于改良Duplay术式组患儿家属对一期手术的满意度（P < 0.05）,与改良Duplay术式组患儿家属对二期手术的满意度相近（P > 0.05）。结论 改良Duplay术治疗中重度尿道下裂手术时间短、尿道狭窄和尿道憩室的发生率低,其临床应用优于Duckett术。
