Abstract
PURPOSE We compared the clinical features of patients with biliary atresia (BA) associated with a bleeding tendency (BT) at the time of the diagnosis with those of patients without a bleeding tendency (NBT). METHODS The patients' background characteristics, age in days at the first visit, Kasai portoenterostomy (KPE), and postoperative course were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS Nine of the 93 BA patients (9.7%) showed a BT, including 7 with intracranial hemorrhaging (ICH), 1 with gastrointestinal bleeding, and 1 with a prothrombin time (PT) of 0%. The age at the first visit was 62 ± 12 days old for BT patients and 53 ± 27 days old for NBT patients (p = 0.4); the age at KPE was 77 ± 9 days old for BT patients and 65 ± 24 days old for NBT patients (p = 0.2); the time from the first visit to surgery was 13 ± 7 days for BT patients and 11 ± 10 days for NBT patients (p = 0.5); and the native liver survival rate was 56% for BT patients and 58% for NBT patients (p = 1), with no significant difference in any of the parameters. The neurological outcomes of survivors of ICH were favorable. CONCLUSIONS Appropriate BT correction allowed early KPE even after ICH, resulting in native liver survival rates comparable to those of NBT patients without significant neurological complications.

Abstract
Testicular torsion (TT) is a surgical emergency requiring early diagnosis and surgical intervention to avoid testicular loss. We report 3 pediatric TT cases with testicular salvage to visualize the blood flow by indocyanine green fluorescence imaging (ICG-FI) on the tunica albuginea of the testis. ICG-FI could not confirm blood flow in the testicular parenchyma; however, it could be detected in postoperative ultrasonography. Blood visualization of the tunica albuginea by ICG-FI may have potential criteria for testicular salvage. Long-term follow-up investigations after testicular salvage are needed to conclude the ICG-FI efficacy for TT.

Abstract
PURPOSE Management of persistently patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in extremely low-birth-weight infants (ELBWIs) requires attention due to the risk of tissue hypoperfusion. We investigated the association between PDA and gastrointestinal perforation. METHODS We performed a retrospective chart review from 2012 to 2021. Preterm (≤ 32 weeks) ELBWIs with PDA after birth who developed necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), focal intestinal perforation (FIP), and idiopathic gastric perforation were included; ELBWIs with congenital heart disease were excluded. Data were analyzed using chi-squared tests with Yates; correction, and Student's t test. RESULTS Five hundred thirty-five preterm ELBWIs were analyzed, including 20 with NEC, 22 with FIP, and 1 with gastric perforation. In NEC and FIP, the ductus arteriosus remained open in 40% (4/10) and 63.6% (14/22) of cases, respectively, and cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor treatment showed poor efficacy (p = 0.492 and 0.240). The incidence of perforation in NEC (4/9 vs. 6/11, p = 0.653), mortality in NEC (3/4 vs. 3/6, p = 0.895) and FIP (6/14 vs. 3/8, p = 0.838) did not differ according to whether the PDA persisted or resolved. CONCLUSION The presentation of PDA did not affect the mortality or morbidity of ELBWIs. However, it is essential to consider the possibility of gastrointestinal perforation due to decreased organ blood flow caused by ductal steal.

Abstract
PURPOSE Our previous clinical pilot study reported that miconazole (MCZ) prevented morbidity from surgical necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). The present study re-investigated this effect in a long-term cohort over 20 years. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study from April 1998 to March 2020. A total of 1169 extremely low-birth-weight infants (ELBWIs) admitted to our neonatal intensive care unit, including 45 with NEC (3.8%), underwent surgery. Since 2002, protocol MCZ administration for 3 weeks has been applied for neonates born before 26 weeks' gestation or weighing under 1000 g. We compared the background characteristics and clinical outcomes between patients with and without MCZ administration. RESULTS The morbidity rate decreased after applying the MCZ protocol, but no improvement in mortality was seen. A propensity score-matched analysis indicated that treated patients by MCZ showed a delay in developing surgical NEC by 12 days. The MCZ protocol also helped increase body weight at surgery. Prophylactic MCZ administration did not improve the neurological development of the language-social and postural-motor domains in the surgical NEC patients. But cognitive-adaptive domain caught up by a chronological age of 3 years old. CONCLUSIONS Revising the protocol to extend the dosing period may improve the outcomes of surgical NEC after the onset.

Abstract
Intradiaphragmatic extralobar pulmonary sequestration (IDEPS) is considered to be very rare among extralobar pulmonary sequestration (EPS), and IDEPS combined with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) with sac is extremely rare. The patient was a neonatal girl. Left-sided CDH with a hernia sac was diagnosed based on computed tomography (CT). Thoracoscopic repair was planned for the 5th day after birth. Left CDH with sac was recognized on the posterolateral side and isolated EPS was recognized on the sac. The hernia sac, including the EPS, was resected, and the diaphragm defect was closed. The resected specimen consisted of fibrous connective tissue and pulmonary sequestration (PS) connected with the sac. It was diagnosed as the hybrid form, with features of both type 2 congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) and EPS. The postoperative course was uneventful. At 1 year and 9 mo after the operation, no recurrence of herniation or laterality of the diaphragm was recognized.

Abstract
PURPOSE We compared cases of anemia in gastroschisis versus omphalocele and investigated this clinical question. METHODS A multicenter study of five pediatric surgery departments in southern Japan was planned. Sixty patients were collected between 2011 and 2020, with 33 (gastroschisis: n = 19, omphalocele: n = 14) who met the selection criteria ultimately being enrolled. Anemia was evaluated before discharge and at the first outpatient visit. RESULTS Despite gastroschisis cases showed more frequent iron administration during hospitalization than omphalocele (p = 0.015), gastroschisis cases tended to show lower hemoglobin values at the first outpatient visit than omphalocele cases (gastroschisis: 9.9 g/dL, omphalocele: 11.2 g/dL). Gastroschisis and the gestational age at birth were significant independent predictors of anemia at the first outpatient visit, (gastroschisis: adjusted odds ratio [OR] 19.00, p = 0.036; gestational age at birth: adjusted OR 0.341, p = 0.028). A subgroup analysis for gastroschisis showed that the ratio of anemia in the 35-36 weeks group (8/10, 80.0%) and the > 37 weeks group (6/6, 100%) was more than in the < 34 weeks group (0/3, 0.0%). CONCLUSIONS Gastroschisis may carry an increased risk of developing anemia compared with omphalocele due to the difference of direct intestinal exposure of amnion fluid in utero.

Abstract
PURPOSE Representative neonatal surgical diseases are often complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). We reviewed our decade of experience from the perspective of the prognosis and report on the management of infants with CHD. METHODS Cases with and without CHD between 2011 and 2020 were retrospectively compared. Qualitative data were analyzed using a chi-square test with Yates' correction, and quantitative data were compared using Student's t-test. RESULTS Of the 275 neonatal surgical cases, 36 had CHD (13.1%). Ventricular septal defect was the most common cardiac anomaly, followed by atrial septal defect. Esophageal atresia showed the highest complication rate of CHD (43.8%, 14/32) followed by duodenal atresia (38.5%, 10/26). The mortality rates of patients with and without CHD (22.2% [8/36] vs. 1.3% [3/239]) were significantly different (χ2 = 30.6, p < 0.0001). Of the eight deaths with CHD, six patients had cyanotic complex CHD. Notably, four of these patients died from progression of inappropriate hemodynamics in the remote period after definitive non-cardiac surgery. CONCLUSION Considering its high-mortality, the presence of CHD, especially cyanotic heart disease, is an important issue to consider in the treatment of neonatal surgical diseases. Pediatric surgeons should be alert for changes in hemodynamics after surgery, as these may affect mortality.

Abstract
Background
The mortality rate of esophageal atresia (EA) has significantly improved, but late complications remain problematic. We evaluated the physical growth, late complications, and social prognosis of postoperative patients with EA who have reached 15 years of age.
Methods
EA patients who were treated at our institution from 1984 to 2003 were enrolled. The follow-up, physical growth at the last visit, late complications and treatment, academic status, and employment situation were evaluated.
Results
Twenty-nine EA patients were registered, and the 23 surviving patients (79.3%) were followed. Anthropometry at the latest visit tended to be below the standard values. Fundoplication was performed in 6 (26.1%) of 9 (39.1%) patients with gastroesophageal reflux. Anastomotic stenosis was found in 12 patients (52.2%), and 2 (8.7%) were treated with re-anastomosis. Thirteen patients were attending a regular school, and one was attending a school for disabled children. Four had jobs from 18 years of age. Follow-up was aborted during early childhood in nine patients.
Conclusions
The physical size of EA was smaller than in the healthy population of the same age. Late complications had not affected the physical growth but were sometimes recognized in adolescence. The social prognosis of the patients was largely favorable.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to investigate potential predictors of focal intestinal perforation (FIP) in extremely low birth weight infants (ELBWIs) among coagulation and fibrinolysis markers at birth. METHODS We reviewed the medical records of FIP patients and their coagulation and fibrinolysis markers at birth between 2010 and 2019, and matched patients according to gestational age. FIP was diagnosed based on macroscopic intestinal perforation with a punched-out lesion without necrosis. Patient characteristics and blood test results, including coagulation and fibrinolysis marker levels, were compared between the groups. RESULTS Two hundred forty ELBWIs were enrolled in this study (FIP, n = 18; controls, n = 222). In the FIP group, the gestational age at birth was significantly younger (p = 0.023) and the birth weight was significantly lower (p = 0.007) in comparison to the control group. Furthermore, the FIP group showed significantly lower levels of fibrinogen (p = 0.027) and factor XIII (F-XIII) (p = 0.007). The receiver operating characteristics curves for fibrinogen and F-XIII revealed that the 95% confidence intervals of fibrinogen and F-XIII were 0.530-0.783 (p = 0.027), and 0.574-0.822 (p = 0.007), respectively. CONCLUSIONS This is the first report focusing on coagulation and fibrinolysis markers in FIP patients at birth. The fibrinogen and F-XIII values at birth are potential predictors of FIP in ELBWIs. TYPE OF STUDY Study of Diagnostic Test (Case Control Study) LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: : Level IV.

Abstract
PURPOSE Retroperitoneal teratomas (RPTs) are rare in infants. We report our experience of treating pediatric patients with RPTs over many years at a single institution, with the aim of developing a safe and secure operative strategy for RPTs in infants. METHODS We reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent treatment for RPTs in our institution between April, 1984 and December, 2017, to analyze their background and clinical data. The diagnosis of RPT was confirmed histologically in all patients. RESULTS The subjects of this retrospective analysis were 14 pediatric patients (female, n = 11; male, n = 4), ranging in age from 6 days to 12 years, 11 (73.3%) of whom were under 1 year of age. Complete surgical resection was performed in all patients. The tumor ruptured during surgery in four (26.7%) patients and perioperative vessel injuries occurred in six (40.0%) patients, resulting in nephrectomy in one (6.7%). Three (20.0%) patients suffered unilateral renal dysfunction as a surgical complication. Only one patient received postoperative chemotherapy. All patients were free of disease at the time of writing. CONCLUSION Perioperative complications are not uncommon during surgery for RPTs, despite their benign nature. Preoperative imaging evaluation is important and operative management may be challenging. Because of the favorable prognosis and the frequency of adverse events in surgery, partial resection or split excision is sometimes unavoidable. Meticulous follow-up for recurrence is required for such patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), focal intestinal perforation (FIP), and meconium-related ileus (MRI) are major diseases that cause gastrointestinal disorders in extremely low-birth-weight infants (ELBWIs). We conducted a review to compare the postoperative outcomes of ELBWIs with these diseases in our neonatal intensive-care unit. METHODS A retrospective chart review of ELBWIs surgically treated for NEC (n = 31), FIP (n = 35), and MRI (n = 16) in 2001-2018 was undertaken. This period was divided into early (2001-2005), middle (2006-2010), and late (2011-2018) periods. Data were analyzed with the Cochran-Armitage test. Statistical significance was defined as p < 0.05. RESULTS The survival rates in ELBWIs with NEC (early/middle/late: 36.4%/42.9%/61.5%; p = 0.212) and FIP (20%/50%/70.6%; p = 0.012) improved over time; all patients with MRI survived. The neuropsychological development of 24 cases was assessed with the Kyoto Scale of Psychological Development in the Postural-Motor, Cognitive-Adaptative, and Language-Social domains. The mean developmental quotient of all domains was 68.4 (range 18-95) at corrected 1.5 years of age and 69.1 (range 25-108) at chronological 3 years of age, both were considered as poor development. There was no improvement over time (p = 0.899). CONCLUSION Ideal neuropsychological development was not observed with the improvement of survival rate. Less-invasive surgical intervention and adequate postoperative care are required to encourage further development.

Abstract
PURPOSE Composite lipid emulsion (CLE) has been used for intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) to compensate for the disadvantages of soybean oil lipid emulsion (SOLE) or fish oil lipid emulsion (FOLE). However, the influence of its administration is unclear. We evaluated the effects of these emulsions on IFALD using a rat model of the short-bowel syndrome. METHODS We performed jugular vein catheterization and 90% small bowel resection in Sprague-Dawley rats and divided them into four groups: control (C group), regular chow with intravenous administration of saline; and total parenteral nutrition co-infused with SOLE (SOLE group), CLE (CLE group) or FOLE (FOLE group). RESULTS Histologically, obvious hepatic steatosis was observed in the SOLE and CLE groups but not the FOLE group. The liver injury grade of the steatosis and ballooning in the FOLE group was significantly better than in the SOLE group (p < 0.05). The TNF-α levels in the liver in the FOLE group were significantly lower than in the SOLE group (p < 0.05). Essential fatty acid deficiency (EFAD) was not observed in any group. CONCLUSION Fish oil lipid emulsion attenuated hepatic steatosis without EFAD, while CLE induced moderate hepatic steatosis. The administration of CLE requires careful observation to prevent PN-induced hepatic steatosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Short bowel syndrome (SBS) patients require long-term parenteral nutrition following massive bowel resection, which causes intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD). Previous reports have shown that glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) resulted in the bowel adaptation for SBS. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of GLP-2 for IFALD in a parenterally fed rat model. METHODS Using rat, a catheter was placed in the jugular vein, and 90% small bowel resection (SBR) was performed. Animals were divided into three groups: SBR and total parenteral nutrition (TPN) (SBS/TPN group), SBR and TPN plus GLP-2 at 1 µg/kg/h [SBS/TPN/GLP-2 (low) group], and SBR and TPN plus GLP-2 at 10 µg/kg/h [SBS/TPN/GLP-2 (high) group]. On day 13, the liver was harvested and analyzed by using nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) score. RESULTS Histologically, hepatic steatosis in the SBS/TPN group and SBS/TPN/GLP-2 (high) group was observed. Both steatosis and lobular inflammation score in the SBS/TPN/GLP-2 (low) group were significantly lower compared with those in the other two groups (p < 0.05). Active NAFLD score in the SBS/TPN/GLP-2 (low) group was significantly lower compared with that in the SBS/TPN/GLP-2 (high) group (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Low-dose GLP-2 intravenous administration improves hepatic steatosis of IFALD following in an SBS parenterally fed rat model.

Abstract
Purpose: Various studies have shown the benefit of three-dimensional (3D) systems over two-dimensional (2D) systems in endoscopic surgery. However, few studies have focused on pediatric endosurgery. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of 2D and 3D environments on the time taken and forceps manipulation by comparing experts and trainees using a laparoscopic hepaticojejunostomy simulator. Methods: We have developed a simulator of laparoscopic hepaticojejunostomy for congenital biliary dilatation. Seventeen participants of pediatric surgeons (4 experts and 13 trainees) performed hepaticojejunostomy using our simulator in both 2D and 3D environment. We evaluated the required time, total path length, and average velocities of bilateral forceps in both situations. Results: Obtained results show the findings for the required time (seconds; 2D, experts: 810.43 ± 321.64 vs. trainees: 1136.02 ± 409.96, P = .17) (seconds; 3D, experts: 660.21 ± 256.48 vs. trainees: 1017 ± 280.93, P = .039), total path length of right forceps (mm; 2D, experts: 38838.23 ± 30686.63 vs. trainees: 52005.47 ± 31675.02, P = .48)(mm; 3D, experts: 24443.09 ± 12316.32 vs. trainees: 45508.09 ± 26926.27, P = .16), total path length of left forceps (mm; 2D, experts: 131635.54 ± 71669.94 vs. trainees: 245242.48 ± 130940.25, P = .48)(mm; 3D, experts: 88520.42 ± 56766.63 vs. trainees: 230789.75 ± 107315.85, P = .024), average velocities of right forceps (mm/second; 2D, experts: 44.80 ± 21.85 vs. trainees: 44.37 ± 18.92, P = .97) (mm/second; 3D, experts: 37.28 ± 16.49 vs. trainees: 42.58 ± 14.40, P = .54), average velocities of left forceps (mm/second; 2D, experts: 156.65 ± 38.69 vs. trainees: 202.58 ± 63.80, P = .20) (mm/second; 3D, experts: 125.64 ± 44.30 vs. trainees: 219.42 ± 43.82, P < .01). Conclusion: The experts performed more effectively when using the 3D system. Using 3D, the total path length of the left forceps of expert pediatric surgeons was significantly shorter than trainee pediatric surgeons, and the average velocities of the left forceps tip of expert pediatric surgeons was significantly slower than trainee pediatric surgeons. These results suggest that training of assisting hand is necessary for advanced pediatric endosurgery to avoid organ injury.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Training programs for developing laparoscopic suturing skills range from dry-box training to virtual simulator training. There are advantages and disadvantages to each training method; however, which training is best for medical students and young surgeons is unclear. The aim of this study was to compare the proficiency of medical students in acquiring laparoscopic suturing skills after various routes of short-term training: via a video, an expert teacher, or a virtual simulator. Materials and Methods: Seventeen medical students were registered and divided randomly into three groups: group receiving personal training while watching a training video (video group), group receiving training under the guidance of an expert (teaching group), and group receiving personal training with a virtual simulator (virtual group). The students practiced laparoscopic suturing and tying skills for 1 hour. Following their training, they performed the evaluation task of three sutures and ties using a laparoscopic fundoplication simulator. We developed a 1-year-old infant body model (body weight 10 kg) based on computed tomography data and established a pneumoperitoneum body model based on a clinical situation. Results: The path length of the assistant forceps in the virtual group tended to be longer than in the other groups. The average acceleration of the assistant forceps in the virtual group was faster than in the other groups (P = .04). There were no significant differences in the other evaluation parameters. Conclusion: A long-term and combination training study should be performed to develop the best method for training medical students and inexperienced young surgeons.

Abstract
PurposeAn early diagnosis of ovarian torsion is sometimes difficult due to variable clinical symptoms and non-specific imaging findings. We retrospectively reviewed patients with pediatric ovarian masses manifesting torsion.MethodsFifty-eight ovarian masses (55 episodes) in 49 non-neonatal patients treated from April 1984 to March 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The Mann-Whitney U test and Fisher’s exact test were used for the statistical analysis.ResultsThe median age of these 55 episodes was 10.5 years old (range 1.0–23.0). Thirty-three patients presented with abdominal pain. Forty-five tumors and 13 cystic masses were resected and diagnosed pathologically (50 benign and 8 malignant). Torsion was identified in 15 cases (25.9%) at operation. The torsion masses were all benign, and 8 ovaries (53.3%) were successfully preserved. Comparing the torsion cases with the non-torsion cases, only the white cell count was significantly higher in the torsion cases (p=0.0133) and in the patients presented with abdominal pain (p=0.0068). The duration of abdominal pain was significantly shorter in ovary preserved cases than in oophorectomy cases.ConclusionThe white blood cell may be a helpful indicator of the presence of torsion as well as the need for surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE Portal hypertension in patients with biliary atresia (BA) is generally thought to result from portal vein (PV) narrowing secondary to hepatic fibrosis. To test the hypothesis, we morphometrically analyzed the PVs and hepatic arteries (HAs). METHODS Morphometrical analyses of 25 BA and 26 non-BA liver biopsy specimens from patients treated from 2000 to 2014. The total specimen area, the fibrotic portal area, vessel diameter and medial thickness of the HAs were measured. RESULTS The PV diameter in BA patients was significantly smaller than that in non-BA patients. In BA, the numbers of normal-sized PVs and capillaries were decreased and increased, respectively. The PV diameter was not significantly correlated with the degree of fibrosis. We newly found that medial hypertrophy and the HA diameter increased with the number of endothelial cells in BA. The PV diameter was not significantly correlated with the medial thickness and was positively correlated with the HA diameter in BA. CONCLUSIONS The narrowing of the PV is unlikely to occur secondarily to liver fibrosis. The medial hypertrophy of the HA is not correlated with the decrease in the PV blood flow. These findings seem to be unique to the primary vascular lesions of BA.

Abstract
PURPOSE Late postoperative complications in choledochal cyst (CC) patients are severe problems that affect the quality of life (QOL). We evaluated the postoperative complications and health-related QOL (HRQOL) of CC patients ≥ 18 years of age. METHODS From April 1984 to January 2018, 114 CC patients underwent definitive surgery at our institution. Seventy-nine patients reached ≥ 18 years of age. The HRQOL was assessed using the Japanese version of the SF-36v2. Eight health domain (physical functioning, role-physical, body pain, general health, role-emotional, vitality, mental health, and social functioning) scores and three component summary [physical component summary, mental component summary (MCS), and role-social component summary] scores were compared between the patients with and without complications (C [+] vs. C [-]). RESULTS Thirty-five patients answered the questionnaires. Twelve patients had postoperative complications. Among the eight domains, the score of general health was significantly lower in C [+] patients than in C [-] patients (p = 0.0488). Among the three component scores, the MCS score in C [+] patients was lower than in C [-] patients without significance (p = 0.0953). CONCLUSIONS The HRQOL of CC patients ≥ 18 years of age was mostly acceptable. However, postoperative complications can impair the sense of well-being and affect the mental health.

Abstract
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES Fish oil (FO) lipid emulsion and a new lipid emulsion (SMOF) are important treatments for intestinal failure-associated liver disease. We evaluated the efficacy of FO and SMOF lipid emulsion on intestinal mucosal adaptation using a total parenteral nutrition (TPN)-supported rat model of short bowel syndrome. MATERIAL & METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats underwent jugular vein catheterization and 90% small bowel resection and were divided into three groups: TPN with soy bean oil lipid emulsion (SO group), FO lipid emulsion (FO group), or SMOF (SMOF group). On day 13, the rats were euthanized, and the small intestine was harvested. The microscopic morphology and crypt cell proliferation rate (CCPR) were then evaluated. RESULTS The villus height of the ileum in the SMOF group was significantly higher than in the SO group. The crypt depth of the intestine in the SMOF group was significantly lower than in the SO group. The CCPRs of the intestine in the FO and SMOF groups were both higher than in the SO group. CONCLUSIONS Lipid emulsion affected the bowel morphology, such as the mucosa as well as the intestinal smooth muscle. Further studies are needed to clarify the mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Single-incision laparoscopic surgery has emerged; however, the procedures might be complicated for trainees. We compared the clinical outcomes of conventional three-port laparoscopic appendectomy (CLA) and single-incision and one-puncture laparoscopic appendectomy (SIOPLA) by attending pediatric surgeons (APSs) and surgeons in training (SITs). MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed the clinical outcomes of 72 randomized laparoscopic appendectomies that were consecutively performed by SITs and APSs for a 2-year period. The cases were categorized according to type of surgeon. Finally, 10 CLA and 18 SIOPLA procedures were performed by SITs, and 24 CLA and 20 SIOPLA procedures were performed by APSs. The operative time, blood loss, analgesic use, complications, and hospital stay were analyzed. RESULTS There were no significant differences in any of the evaluation points between CLA and SIOPLA. CONCLUSIONS SIOPLA is not inferior operation to CLA, and the postoperative outcomes of SIOPLA were satisfactory. Thus, SIOPLA was safe and feasible for young surgeons to perform.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since short bowel syndrome (SBS) patients face life-threatening conditions, the development of therapeutic strategies to induce intestinal adaptation has been investigated. Ghrelin, a ligand of growth hormone (GH) secretagogue-receptor that stimulates the release of GH and insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), has several pleiotropic effects. We investigated whether ghrelin induces intestinal adaptation in parenterally fed rats with SBS. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats underwent venous catheterization and were divided into 3 groups: those receiving 90% small bowel resection while leaving the proximal jejunum and distal ileum (90% SBR) with TPN (SBS/TPN group), those receiving 90% SBR with TPN + ghrelin (SBS/TPN/ghrelin group), and those receiving sham operation and fed chow (sham group). Ghrelin was administered intravenously at 10 μg/kg/day. On Day 13, the rats were euthanized and the small intestine harvested, and the histology and crypt cell proliferation rates (CCPR), apoptosis, and nutrient transporter protein levels were analyzed and the plasma hormones were measured. RESULTS The villus height and crypt depth of the ileum in the SBS/TPN/ghrelin group were significantly higher than in the SBS/TPN group. The CCPR of the jejunum and the ileum significantly increased by the administration of ghrelin; however, the apoptosis rates did not significantly differ between the SBS/TPN and SBS/TPN/ghrelin groups. Significant differences did not exist in the plasma IGF-1 and nutrient transporter protein levels among three groups. CONCLUSIONS The intravenous administration of ghrelin stimulated the morphological intestinal adaptation of the ileum to a greater degree than the jejunum due to the direct effect of ghrelin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intestinal disorders are common in very low-birthweight infants. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of prophylactic oral Gastrografin® (diatrizoate acid) on meconium-related ileus (MRI) in extremely preterm infants. METHODS This was a retrospective case-control study of infants born extremely preterm at <28 weeks of gestation and treated with diatrizoate acid (prophylactic group) or not (control group) in the periods 2007-2014 and 2000-2009, respectively. In the 2007-2014 period, 120 infants received prophylactic diatrizoate acid solution. From the 165 infants in the control group, we selected 120 infants matched for gestational age. Cases of death before 72 h of life or congenital abnormalities were excluded. Intestinal disorders, time until full enteral feeding, duration of hospital stay, mortality rate, and neurodevelopmental outcome were compared. RESULTS MRI occurred in six infants in the control group and in none of the infants in the prophylactic group (P = 0.039). Median time until full enteral feeding was 25 versus 22 days (P < 0.01), hospital stay was 142 versus 126 days (P < 0.01), and mortality rate for infants aged 24-27 weeks was 8.2% versus 0% (P = 0.021), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Prophylactic oral diatrizoate acid reduced MRI in extremely preterm infants without side-effects and decreased the mortality rate of infants born at 24-27 weeks, and is thus beneficial in extremely preterm infants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Hirschsprung disease (HD) is considered curable, but the postoperative bowel function is not always satisfactory. In this study, we evaluated the general condition, bowel function, and social performance in adults who were older than 17years of age who had undergone definitive operations in childhood. METHOD From 1984 to 2016, 110 patients with HD underwent definitive surgery at our institute. Sixty-three patients who had undergone the transabdominal Soave procedure reached 18years of age. Their present status and symptoms, anorectal function, genitourinary function, and social performance were evaluated during the clinical follow-up via a questionnaire survey. RESULT The mean age of the questionnaire respondents was 25.0 (19-37) years. The bowel function was mostly good. However, 56% of patients had abdominal pain more than once a week. Regarding evacuation symptoms, incontinence and soiling occurred in 18.7%. Among the respondents 33.3% were married, and 60% of those who were married had children. The respondents had achieved success in their education and professional careers. CONCLUSION The bowel function of most patients was satisfactory, although some had chronic abdominal symptoms. Pediatric surgeons should continue trying to achieve complete bowel function after definitive surgery of HD. TYPE OF STUDY Prospective Cohort Study. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There have been no previous studies regarding whether combined use of Polymyxin B-immobilized fiber column direct hemoperfusion (PMX-DHP) and continuous hemodiafiltration (CHDF) is helpful in the treatment of preterm infants with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and hypercytokinemia. METHODS A retrospective review was carried out of 18 SIRS infants born at gestational week 24-28. Eight with blood interleukin (IL)-6 ≥ 1000 pg/mL were treated actively with 2 h PMX-DHP followed by 2 h PMX-DHP and CHDF. Ten with IL-6 < 500 pg/mL were treated conventionally (with neither PMX-DHP nor CHDF) and served as controls. RESULTS Demographic characteristics were similar except for IL-6, arterial-to-alveolar oxygen tension ratio (a/APO2 ), and number of immature neutrophils between the two groups. Baseline a/APO2 was significantly lower in infants with than without active treatment (0.44 vs 0.67, respectively, P = 0.002). After 4 h treatment, the IL-6 decreased to < 500 pg/mL in all eight infants, and a/APO2 improved significantly to 0.62 (P = 0.006). Bronchopulmonary dysplasia occurred in a similar proportion (63%, 5/8 vs 80%, 8/10, respectively), but the number of days on inhaled oxygen (30 vs 47 days, respectively, P = 0.033) and tracheal intubation (36 vs 51 days, respectively, P = 0.040) was significantly lower in infants with than without active treatment. Prevalence of adverse events was similar (13%, 1/8 vs 50%, 5/10 for active vs conventional treatment, respectively). CONCLUSION Active treatment with PMX-DHP and CHDF was helpful in the reduction of days on inhaled oxygen and tracheal intubation in preterm SIRS infants with hypercytokinemia. Further prospective randomized studies are warranted.

Abstract
Gastric rupture is extremely rare in childhood beyond the neonatal period. We describe a previously healthy 6-year-old girl with a large laceration along the greater curvature on the posterior wall of the stomach. The patient was admitted to a neighboring hospital because of vertigo with 1-day history of intractable vomiting and epigastric pain. Although abdominal distension was noticed during the physical examination, muscular rigidity was not detected on palpation. Laboratory data showed severe hypotonic dehydration and moderate metabolic acidosis with hyperkalemia. She suddenly developed cardiac arrest within an hour after admission. After resuscitation, surgical consultation was obtained. Abdominal X-ray and ultrasound revealed abdominal free air and massive cloudy ascites. At laparotomy, there was a large laceration on the greater curvature of the stomach. Pathology of the gastric wall showed mucosal necrosis while the musculature remained intact consistent with an acute gastric ulcer. Since clinical condition of gastric rupture deteriorates rapidly, early diagnosis and appropriate treatment is essential for good prognosis. One should consider that ulcer formation might cause gastric rupture in childhood.
