Adrenocortical neoplasms in children: Treatment and outcomes
Conclusion: Adrenocortical tumors are uncommon tumors in children. Adenomas have a favorable outcome. There was no disease-free survival in incompletely resected or metastatic tumors. Tumor spill may also have an adverse outcome in completely resected tumors. (Source: Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons)

Our neonatal surgery experiences in somalia
Conclusion: The mortality rate from the surgical procedures of the neonates in Somalia is extremely high when compared with the developed countries. Employment of experienced pediatric surgeons and well-trained nurses, strict attention to the sanitary measures and shortening the time from birth to presentation might improve the surgical outcomes of the neonates in Somalia.

External jugular venous cutdown versus percutaneous technique for chemoport insertion in children: A comparative study
Conclusions: Chemoport placement by the EJV cutdown was found to have fewer port-related complications and a lesser rate of premature chemoport removal compared to the percutaneous technique. The time taken for port placement and the mean chemoport-indwelling days were similar in both techniques. (Source: Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons)

Management of primary thoracic neuroblastic tumors in children: An observational study
Conclusion: In this retrospective review, we have observed that the mediastinal site of origin alone did not uniformly confer an excellent prognosis for all the patients. While the patients with lower stage tumors, favorable biological profile, and infants had excellent prognosis, in another small subset of patients with undifferentiated histology, the prognosis was guarded with an increased risk of recurrence. The clinical presentation with pleural effusion and compression of the airway at the time of presentation was associated with poor outcome.

Duodenal and pyloric web in children: Clinical presentation and management
Conclusion: DW/PW has different presentations as compared to other intestinal atresia and can present at any age. A contrast study confirms the diagnosis when plain X-ray is inconclusive. Associated anomalies and septicemia are the poor prognostic indicators. Postoperative enteral feeding helps in maintaining adequate nutrition and improves the outcome even in children with a minor anastomotic leak.

Metachronous venous malformation masquerading as an obscure gastrointestinal bleed
We report an unusual case of a female child, with a history of venous malformation excision over the right leg presenting with severe iron-deficiency anemia. Although venous malformations of the small bowel are a rare cause of occult GI bleed, in the presence of cutaneous vascular lesions, there should be a high index of suspicion of a vascular malformation, along with the other causes of GI bleed in children.
