Abstract
INTRODUCTION The incidence of ulcerative colitis (UC) is increasing. Roughly 20% of all patients with UC are diagnosed in childhood, and children typically present with more severe disease. Approximately 40% will undergo total colectomy within ten years of diagnosis. The objective of this study is to assess the available evidence regarding the surgical management of pediatric UC as determined by the consensus agreement of the American Pediatric Surgical Association Outcomes and Evidence-Based Practice Committee (APSA OEBP). METHODS Through an iterative process, the membership of the APSA OEBP developed five a priori questions focused on surgical decision-making for children with UC. Questions focused on surgical timing, reconstruction, use of minimally invasive techniques, need for diversion, and risks to fertility and sexual function. A systematic review was conducted, and articles were selected for review following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Risk of Bias was assessed using Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS) criteria. The Oxford Levels of Evidence and Grades of Recommendation were utilized. RESULTS A total of 69 studies were included for analysis. Most manuscripts contain level 3 or 4 evidence from single-center retrospective reports, leading to a grade D recommendation. MINORS assessment revealed a high risk of bias in most studies. J-pouch reconstruction may result in fewer daily stools than straight ileoanal anastomosis. There are no differences in complications based on the type of reconstruction. The timing of surgery should be individualized to patients and does not affect complications. Immunosuppressants do not appear to increase surgical site infection rates. Laparoscopic approaches result in longer operative times but shorter lengths of stay and fewer small bowel obstructions. Overall, complications are not different using an open or minimally invasive approach. CONCLUSIONS There is currently low-level evidence related to certain aspects of surgical management for UC, including timing, reconstruction type, use of minimally invasive techniques, need for diversion, and risks to fertility and sexual function. Multicenter, prospective studies are recommended to better answer these questions and ensure the best evidence-based care for our patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level of evidence III. STUDY TYPE Systematic review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE A small number of Hirschsprung disease (HD) patients develop inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-like symptoms after pullthrough surgery. The etiology and pathophysiology of Hirschsprung-associated IBD (HD-IBD) remains unknown. This study aims to further characterize HD-IBD, to identify potential risk factors and to evaluate response to treatment in a large group of patients. METHODS Retrospective study of patients diagnosed with IBD after pullthrough surgery between 2000 and 2021 at 17 institutions. Data regarding clinical presentation and course of HD and IBD were reviewed. Effectiveness of medical therapy for IBD was recorded using a Likert scale. RESULTS There were 55 patients (78% male). 50% (n = 28) had long segment disease. Hirschsprung-associated enterocolitis (HAEC) was reported in 68% (n = 36). Ten patients (18%) had Trisomy 21. IBD was diagnosed after age 5 in 63% (n = 34). IBD presentation consisted of colonic or small bowel inflammation resembling IBD in 69% (n = 38), unexplained or persistent fistula in 18% (n = 10) and unexplained HAEC >5 years old or unresponsive to standard treatment in 13% (n = 7). Biological agents were the most effective (80%) medications. A third of patients required a surgical procedure for IBD. CONCLUSION More than half of the patients were diagnosed with HD-IBD after 5 years old. Long segment disease, HAEC after pull through operation and trisomy 21 may represent risk factors for this condition. Investigation for possible IBD should be considered in children with unexplained fistulae, HAEC beyond the age of 5 or unresponsive to standard therapy, and symptoms suggestive of IBD. Biological agents were the most effective medical treatment. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 4.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The sonographic whirlpool sign of volvulus due to midgut malrotation is well recognized. However, variations of the whirlpool sign may be seen in other conditions, but this observation has received little attention in the literature. OBJECTIVE This study presents a series of neonates with a variety of causes of congenital intestinal obstruction, all associated with a whirlpool sign (unrelated to midgut volvulus), which was correctly recognized preoperatively on sonography. We also emphasize the pivotal role of sonography in managing congenital obstruction of the intestinal tract in neonates. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of clinical, imaging and surgical findings in 11 neonates with congenital intestinal obstruction associated with a whirlpool sign (unrelated to midgut volvulus) that was recognized preoperatively on sonography and in whom the cause for the whirlpool was documented at surgery. RESULTS Eleven neonates (eight male, three female) had clinical and radiographic evidence of intestinal obstruction in whom sonography depicted a whirlpool sign, which was recognized on the initial sonogram in nine and on a repeat sonogram in two. The whirlpool was located in the upper abdomen in only two, mid-abdomen in five and right lower quadrant in four. The whirlpool was only 1-2 cm in diameter. An upper gastrointestinal series in three neonates failed to depict the cause of obstruction. Contrast enema in three cases had findings suggesting the site of obstruction was in the ileum but none depicted the exact cause of the obstruction. At surgery, the whirlpool sign correlated with a segmental volvulus of the small intestine in eight neonates and with the coiled distal small intestine associated with apple-peel atresia in the other three. CONCLUSION This study illustrates neonates in whom a whirlpool sign (unrelated to midgut volvulus) was correctly recognized on sonography before surgery. Sonography proved more useful than an upper gastrointestinal series or contrast enema in depicting the exact cause of the obstruction. Pediatric radiologists must make the effort to search throughout the entire abdomen and pelvis for a small whirlpool sign on sonography, even in the absence of midgut malrotation, in neonates with congenital intestinal obstruction. Its recognition preoperatively will facilitate a rapid diagnosis and will obviate the necessity for contrast examinations of the gastrointestinal tract, which require ionizing radiation.

Abstract
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND-RATIONALE: To investigate whether interstitial injection of gadofosveset trisodium (Ablavar®, Lantheus Medical, North Billerica, MA) would be suitable for thoracic duct (TD) imaging in a pig model. METHODS AND RESULTS Gadofosveset trisodium alone or premixed with 10% human serum albumin (HSA) was administered intradermally in the extremities of pigs at varying doses to visualize the TD by MRI. Two blinded readers evaluated MRIs for TD visibility. The inter-observer variability for all MR imaging sessions was assessed using the Spearman rank correlation test. MR lymphography using gadofosveset trisodium premixed with HSA yielded superior visualization of the TD compared to gadofosveset trisodium alone, with a high inter-observer agreement (correlation coefficient of 0.88 (p=0.00000115)). CONCLUSIONS We demonstrate that gadofosveset trisodium (premixed with 10%HSA) can be injected intradermally in order to perform MR lymphography of the thoracic duct. Since this agent is already FDA approved for MR imaging, the off-label use of it for imaging of the thoracic duct in humans is feasible, and the approach may prove to be beneficial for patients with TD abnormalities.
