Reduction en masse of Inguinal Hernia in a 2-Month-Old Male Infant
European J Pediatr Surg Rep. 2024; 12: e41-e44 DOI: 10.1055/a-2280-9708Reduction en masse is the reduction of the hernial sac into the preperitoneal space, with a loop of bowel remaining trapped at the neck of the hernial sac. This complication is rare, usually associated with inguinal hernias, and is characterized by the absence of a noticeable bulge in the groin. The patient was a 2-month-old male infant and presented with a nonreducible bulge in his left groin, and incarceration of the left inguinal hernia was diagnosed. Manual reduction was performed, and the hernia bulge became less noticeable. He was admitted, and la...

A systematic review of Sandifer syndrome in children with severe gastroesophageal reflux
ConclusionThe primary care providers should keep SS in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with abnormal posturing and no apparent neuromuscular disorders. Fundoplication may be effective especially for patients with anatomical anomalies or those whose symptoms do not improve after more than 1 month with nonsurgical treatment.

A case of abdominal internal hernia through the foramen of Winslow in a pediatric emergency department
We report the case of a 15-year-old adolescent male without previous surgical interventions who presented with abdominal pain and vomiting; computed tomography scans showed intestinal obstruction due to an internal hernia through the foramen of Winslow. To reduce the herniated ileum, the patient required surgical intervention with diagnostic laparoscopy, which, due to bad visualization, was changed to supraumbilical midline laparotomy. There was no need to resect the affected ileum as it appeared healthy. We did not perform a preventive technique to reduce the risk of recurrence. Postoperative pelvic collection was conserv...
