Comparison of cisplatin monotherapy and PLADO in the management in children with standard-risk hepatoblastoma in a resource-challenged nation
Conclusion: Two thirds of patients with PRETEXT stage III who received cisplatin monotherapy showed poor response and were upgraded to PLADO chemotherapy. These patients had a significantly poorer outcome compared to the rest of the cohort. PRETEXT stage III standard-risk hepatoblastoma may benefit from PLADO chemotherapy instead of cisplatin monotherapy. (Source: Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons)

Muscle-sparing skin crease incision posterolateral thoracotomies in pediatric patients: Our experience
Conclusions: Muscle-sparing skin crease incision posterolateral thoracotomy is a viable alternative to standard posterolateral muscle cutting thoracotomy, especially in a resource-challenged setting. The technique is easy to perform with satisfactory exposure. (Source: Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons)

Pediatric colorectal carcinoma: A series of seven cases
Conclusion: CRC can present in first decade of life and often misdiagnosed. Pediatric CRC has distinct tumor biology and shares a poor prognosis. Paucity of literature from the Indian subcontinent should urge further clinicopathological trials for establishing etiology and for refining treatment recommendations in these children.

Pelviureteric junction obstruction due to vascular anomalies in children & #8211; Simple surgical options
Conclusions: PUJO due to extrinsic vascular anomalies is rare. Intraoperative evaluation with the MBT ruled out associated intrinsic pathology. We describe two simple surgical alternatives preserving the normal PUJ - adhesiolysis for vascular adhesions and pyelopyelostomy for aberrant lower polar artery. The preliminary outcomes are comparable to conventional pyeloplasty. (Source: Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons)

Musculoskeletal and esthetic complications after neonatal thoracotomy: Revisited
Conclusion: Neonatal thoracotomy is associated with complications such as pneumonia, wound infections, and musculoskeletal abnormalities such as asymmetry of chest and scoliosis. These can be prevented by adequate postoperative pain relief, muscle-sparing thoracotomies, avoiding tight closures, and nerve injuries. Long-term follow-up is required because these complications may manifest later on also. Early detection and institution of physiotherapy may help.

Clinical profile, outcomes and predictors of mortality in neonates operated for gastrointestinal anomalies in a tertiary neonatal care unit- An observational study
Conclusion: Overall survival of surgically correctable GI anomalies is good. Among the predictors for mortality, modifiable factors such as in-utero referral of antenatally diagnosed congenital anomalies need attention. One-fifth had associated anomalies highlighting the need to actively look for the same. Although these neonates are vulnerable for growth failure, they had optimal growth on follow-up possibly due to standardized total parenteral nutritional policy during neonatal intensive care unit stay.

Giant feeding artery from abdominal aorta in intralobar pulmonary sequestration
We present a case of newborn with antenatally diagnosed case of PS. The baby was delivered by cesarean section to primigravida mother at 38 + 3 weeks of gestation with birth weight of 2700 g. At 20 weeks of gestation, the antenatal ultrasound showed a triangular echogenic area in left lung supplied by feeding artery from descending aorta. The baby had respiratory distress soon after birth. Computerized tomographic pulmonary angiogram revealed abnormal blood supply of left lower lobe arising from descending aorta. The feeding vessel was abnormally large and was almost half of the diameter of the aorta. The baby u...

Rare presentation of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor as intussusception in a child with idiopathic aplastic anemia
Ashok Kumar Sharma, Satyendra KatewaJournal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons 2022 27(2):263-265 Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is an uncommon mesenchymal solid tumor documented in children and young adults. A 7-year-old boy diagnosed case of acquired aplastic anemia, referred to our hospital for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. He was admitted to the hospital with febrile neutropenia. Blood culture showed persistent Escherichia coli infection. During hospital stay, he had bilious vomiting with tender abdomen suggestive of subacute intestional obstruction. Computed tomography of the abdomen was...
