Abstract
Lymphedema associated with other developmental malformations (Milroy syndrome, Hennekam syndrome, Noonan syndrome, Gorham-Stout syndrome, yellow nail syndrome) are unfrequent disease, but explorations led to the identification of genetic mutations that have then been validated in mouse models. However, lymphatic vessels complexity and its proximity with the venous system suggest the need for further researches, especially in the comprehension of pulmonary symptoms.

Abstract
Both technical and anatomical features and the need for a long follow-up, usually over several years, explain the specificity of lung surgery in children. Apart from the oncological resections, the main indications for this surgery are congenital lung anomalies (cystic adenomatoid malformation, bronchopulmonary sequestration, lobar emphysema), symptomatic postinfectious lesions (bronchiectasis, atelectasis, abscess) and pneumothorax. Advances in miniaturization of the surgical equipment are used to carry the majority of these interventions by thoracoscopy, except when performed at the neonatal period. In the newborn, for which the indications for lung surgical resections are exceptional, ventilatory conditions and the tightness of the chest lead to still prefer open surgery. Pulmonary malformations can also be managed prenatally when they affect lung development or cause heart failure because of compressive complications. These interventions, performed after the 30th week of gestation, are not intended to remove the lesions, but to release the compression. But these procedures are still under evaluation and, in light of possible fetal and maternal complications, they should only be performed in tertiary centers and in the context of specific protocols.

Abstract
Advances in antenatal imaging over the past 10 years have completely changed diagnosis and management of congenital lung disease, especially for congenital cystic adenomatoid malformations and sequestrations that are the two lesions most commonly detected. If early surgical excision is required for symptomatic cases, management of asymptomatic malformations is still discussed. The natural evolution and consequences of later complications of congenital lung malformations need to be compared with the benefits of elective resection and surgical morbidity. Complete regression of sequestrations or clinical and morphological improvement in congenital lobar emphysema pleads for clinical watching. On the other hand, resection is advocated for cystic malformations, because of an increased risk of acute respiratory distress, later infections and the possibility of malignant transformation. Even though the proportion of asymptomatic patients that go on to develop symptoms is hard to evaluate, an argument for elective surgery is a better outcome than emergency surgery. Further studies and long term follow-up are still needed to understand the natural history of congenital lung malformations precisely and help to define the optimal way in which to manage them.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Small bowel (SB) transplantation (Tx), long considered a rescue therapy for patients with intestinal failure, is now a well recognised alternative treatment strategy to parental nutrition (PN). In this retrospective study, we analysed graft functions in 31 children after SBTx with a follow-up of 2-18 years (median 7 years). PATIENTS Twelve children had isolated SBTx, 19 had combined liver-SBTx and 17 received an additional colon graft. Growth, nutritional markers, stool balance studies, endoscopy and graft histology were recorded every 2-3 years post-Tx. RESULTS All children were weaned from PN after Tx and 26 children remained PN-free. Enteral nutrition was required for 14/31 (45%) patients at 2 years post-Tx. All children had high dietary energy intakes. The degree of steatorrhoea was fairly constant, with fat and energy absorption rates of 84-89%. Growth parameters revealed at transplantation a mean height Z-score of -1.17. After Tx, two-thirds of children had normal growth, whereas in one-third, Z-scores remained lower than -2, concomitant to a delayed puberty. Adult height was normal in 5/6. Endoscopy and histology analyses were normal in asymptomatic patients. Chronic rejection occurred only in non-compliant patients. Five intestinal grafts were removed 2.5-8 years post-Tx for acute or chronic rejection. CONCLUSIONS This series indicates that long-term intestinal autonomy for up to 18 years is possible in the majority of patients after SBTx. Subnormal energy absorption and moderate steatorrhoea were often compensated for by hyperphagia, allowing normal growth and attainment of adult height. Long-term compliance is an important pre-requisite for long-term graft function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND More information is needed regarding the prognosis of children receiving home parenteral nutrition (HPN). This article describes 20-year outcome data in children receiving HPN and provides separate profiles for the major pediatric diagnostic subgroups. PATIENTS AND METHODS This retrospective study included children who started receiving HPN between January 1, 1980, and December 31, 1999, in a single pediatric HPN center. RESULTS A total of 302 children were recruited, 230 (76%) with primary digestive disorders and 72 (24%) with nonprimary digestive disorders. Median age at HPN onset was 1.5 years. Median duration of HPN was 1.3 years. By January 1, 2000, 54% had weaned from HPN, 26% were still receiving HPN, 16% had died, and 4% had undergone intestinal transplantation. The survival probabilities at 2, 5, 10, and 15 years were 97%, 89%, 81%, and 72%, respectively. The likelihood and cause of death depended on the underlying diagnosis. Nine percent of children with primary digestive disorders died, 24% from their primary disease and 48% from liver disease or sepsis. Children with intractable diarrhea of infancy had the highest mortality rate (25%) and the highest incidence of liver disease (48%; P = 0.0002). Thirty-eight percent of children with primary nondigestive diseases died, 94% from their primary disease and 6% from liver disease or sepsis. CONCLUSIONS Outcome and survival of children receiving HPN are mainly determined by their underlying diagnosis. Nearly all children with primary digestive disease survive if referred early to an expert center.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The authors analyzed clinical signs of vascular ring anomalies together with appropriate complementary examinations and factors predictive of outcome after surgical treatment. METHODS The authors reviewed the files of 62 patients with vascular ring abnormalities treated at Necker-Enfants Malades Hospital between January 1990 and January 2000, to analyze age at symptom onset, results of paraclinical examinations, the type of vascular ring abnormality, the surgical indications and type of surgery, and postoperative outcome. Outcomes were divided into 3 categories: cure, partial improvement, and no improvement. The chi2 test corrected with Fischer's Exact test was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS Vascular ring abnormalities were diagnosed at birth in 28% of cases and during the first year of life in 68%. Sixteen percent of patients had associated abnormalities. Recurrent pulmonary and bronchial infections occurred after one year of age. An esophagogram was done in 76% of cases and showed impression images. Endoscopy was done in 63% of cases and showed malacia in 41% of patients and stenosis in 51%. Fifty-eight children were treated surgically. The average hospital stay was 7.4 days. The average follow-up was 37.4 months (12 to 159 months). Complete improvement was obtained in 68% of cases, partial improvement in 17%, and no improvement in 15%. Preoperative malacia was more frequent in patients with partial improvement or no improvement. CONCLUSIONS Surgical treatment of congenital vascular ring abnormalities is effective and safe. Complications are rare. Prognostic factors include the quality of preoperative preparation of respiratory function, the type of abnormality, and the degree of malacia.

Abstract
PURPOSE Ureterovesical reimplantation is most often performed for renal transplantation in children. We reviewed our experience to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ureteroureteral reimplantation in pediatric renal transplantation. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the charts of 92 boys and 72 girls who underwent a total of 166 ureteroureteral anastomoses for renal transplantation from January 1990 to December 1999. Spatulated end-to-end anastomosis was performed between recipient and graft ureters without stenting and with a bladder catheter for at least 10 days. RESULTS Mean patient age at transplantation was 11.2 years (range 1 to 21.5). There were 22 living related donor and 144 cadaveric grafts. Urological anomalies and nephropathy were the cause of end stage renal disease in 146 and 20 patients, respectively. Urological complications were noted in 14 of the 166 transplantations (8.4%) in 10 boys and 4 girls, including 12 initial and 2 repeat grafts from 2 living related and 12 cadaveric donors. Five of these patients had undergone previous urological surgery. The 2 children (1.2%) with acute ureteral obstruction underwent repeat intervention after stent failure. Anastomotic leakage in 7 cases (4.2%) was treated conservatively in 1 and with a Double-J stent (Medical Engineering Corp., New York, New York) only required in 3. Reoperation was required in 3 cases. One patient (0.6%) with late ureteral stenosis underwent repeat anastomosis, 1 (0.6%) required reimplantation for recurrent pyelonephritis due to vesicoureteral reflux in the graft, 1 (0.6%) with a valve bladder required bladder augmentation and ureteral reimplantation, and 1 (0.6%) with lymphocele and 1 (0.6%) with lithiasis were successfully treated conservatively. Complications were associated with acute rejection in 6 cases. Mean followup without graft loss in patients who presented with versus without complications was 58.3 months (range 1 to 112) versus 75 (range 1 to 118). In the former patients with a mean age of 16 years 9 months versus those without urological complications mean serum creatinine was 116 and 108 mol./l., respectively. Two grafts were lost in patients with urological complications, including 1 who died of pulmonary embolism and 1 with refractory chronic rejection. Seven patients were lost to followup after 54 months (range 12 to 113) of adequate graft function. CONCLUSIONS Ureteroureteral anastomosis is a safe and effective technique for pediatric renal transplantation with a low complication rate, which may be due to better vascularization of the shorter ureteral end of the graft. Our results should encourage the use of this technique in pediatric renal transplantation. Efforts to preserve the recipient ureters should be made at nephrectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel transplantation remains a difficult therapeutic option endangered by a high rate of rejection and infectious complications. To improve these clinical results, it is mandatory to set up animal models to test alternative immunosuppressive regimens which may lead to immunotolerance. AIMS To determine the value of blockade of alphaLbeta2 (LFA-1) and alpha4 and beta7 integrins (alpha4beta1, alpha4beta7, and alphaEbeta7) in the prevention of rejection of fetal small bowel grafts in mice and the effect of the association of calcineurin dependent drugs in anti-LFA-1 treated mice. METHODS Adult recipient mice engrafted with allogeneic fetal small bowel received a short course of anti-alpha4 and/or anti-LFA-1 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) with or without FK506 or cyclosporin A. In addition, in a set of experiment, beta7-/- mice were used as recipients. Graft biopsies were performed and processed for standard histology. RESULTS Blockade of the pathways of the integrins alpha4 and beta7 had a modest or no effect on intestinal graft survival. In contrast, transitory, short administration of anti-LFA-1 monoclonal antibody alone, when started before engraftment (day -1), allowed long term survival of intestinal grafts, even when associated with calcineurin dependent drugs. However, early withdrawal of FK506 reversed the immunosuppressive effect of anti-LFA-1 treatment. CONCLUSION These results suggest that firstly, anti-LFA-1, but not anti-alpha4 mAb treatment, may be useful in improving the results of intestinal transplantation, and secondly, that this treatment is not incompatible with long term administration of tacrolimus currently used in the prevention of small bowel graft rejection in humans.

Abstract
STUDY AIM We have previously demonstrated that anti-LFA-1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) can efficiently protect against rejection of small bowel allograft in a mouse model. The aim of the present work was to determine, in the same model, the optimum conditions for utilisation of anti-LFA-1 mAb and the effects of calcineurin-dependent drugs on the immunosuppression induced by anti-LFA-1 mAb treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS Foetal small intestines of C57Bl/6 (H-2b) mice were transplanted into adult C3H/He (H-2k) mice. Recipients were treated with anti-LFA-1 mAb alone (with or without day-1 injection), or combined to cyclosporin (20 mg.kg-1.j-1 for 14 days), or to tacrolimus (1 mg.kg-1.j-1 from day 0 to day 7). Biopsies were performed after engraftment from day 5 to day 30. RESULTS Administration of anti-LFA-1 mAb alone is sufficient to induce significant prolongation of intestinal allograft survival, provided that the treatment starts one day before engraftment. This tolerogenic effect is reversed by the transitory administration of tacrolimus (p = 0.008). CONCLUSION Treatment with anti-LFA-1 mAb has to be started before the allogeneic response has begun. Calcineurin-dependent drugs can modulate the tolerogenic effect induced by anti-LFA-1. A transgenic mice model should give precise details about underlying mechanisms of these interactions, before a possible utilisation of anti-LFA-1 mAb in intestinal transplantation in humans.

Abstract
From November 1994 to November 1998, 20 children (2.5 to 14 years) received a jejunoileal graft alone (SBTx; n = 10) or in combination with the liver (SBLTx; n = 10 and/or the right colon (5 SBTx). Indications were intractable diarrhea of infancy (n = 8), short bowel syndrome (n = 6), extensive Hirschsprung disease (n = 4), and chronic intestinal pseudoobstruction (n = 2). Immunosuppression included tacrolimus, methylprednisolone, and azathioprine. Current follow-up ranges from 6 to 54 months. Five patients died (3 SBTx) within the first 2 months. Acute liver rejection occurred in 5 patients during the first 2 months. Sixteen episodes of intestinal rejection during the first 3 months in 11 patients (8 in 4 SBTx) were successfully treated in all but 3 by increasing tacrolimus dose and/or a 3-day methyprednisolone bolus or required antilymphoglobulins in 3 cases. Surgical complications occurred 8 times after SBLTx and 3 after SBTx. Infectious complications were more frequent in SBLTx recipients. Reversible Epstein-Barr virus-related posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease occurred in 3 recipients. Five presented cytomegalovirus infection. The SB graft was removed in 5 recipients (3 chronic rejection). All patients were started with oral and/or enteral feeding from the 7th postoperative day by using either normal food or protein hydrolysate diet. Currently, 10 of 11 children (8 SBLTx) achieved digestive autonomy after 5 to 30 weeks. All recipients gained weight; however, growth velocity remained reduced during the first 6 months because of the steroid therapy. Overall graft and patient survival is higher after SBLTx. Intestinal transplantation is indicated for patients with permanent intestinal failure. However, because parenteral nutrition is generally well tolerated, even for long periods, each indication for transplantation must be weighed carefully in terms of risk and quality of life.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the authors was to report an up-to-date review of their experience with 26 intestinal transplantations in children since 1987. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted of 26 patients with a mean age of 5 years (range, 0.3 to 14 years). Three groups were isolated. In group A (1987 to 1990), seven patients received nine isolated intestinal transplants for short bowel syndrome. Immunosuppression therapy consisted of cyclosporine, aziathioprine, and corticosteroids. In group B (1994-current), nine patients received nine isolated intestinal transplants for short bowel syndrom (n = 2), intestinal pseudoobstruction (n = 2), neonatal intractable diarrhea (n = 3), and Hirschsprung' disease (n = 1); hepatic biopsy results showed weak cholestasis or fibrosis. In group C (1994-current), 10 patients received 10 combined liver-small bowel transplants for short bowel syndrome (n = 3), neonatal intractable diarrhea (n = 4), and Hirschsprung' disease (n = 3); hepatic cirrhosis related to total parenteral nutrition (TPN) was shown in all cases. Groups B and C received immunosupressive treatment consisting of tacrolimus, aziathioprine, and corticosteroids. Posttransplant follow-up included intestinal biopsies of the small bowel twice a week and more frequently or combined with liver biopsy if rejection was suspected. RESULTS Overall patient survival (PS) and graft survival (GS) are 61% (16 of 26) and 50% (13 of 26), respectively. In group A, severe intestinal allograft rejection occurred in six patients leading to graft removal (GS, 11%). Five patients died of TPN complications after graft removal (PS, 28%). One survivor is off TPN, and one currently is waiting for a second graft. In group B, six patients survived (PS, 66%). Causes of death include hepatic failure (n = 1), renal and liver failure (n = 1), and systemic infection (n = 1). Severe intestinal allograft rejection occurred in five patients, which neccessitated aggressive immunosuppression (antilymphocyte serum) leading to an incomplete functional recovery of the graft. Only two patients currently are off TPN. In group C, eight patients survived (PS, 80%) all of which are currently off TPN. One patient died during the procedure, and one died of severe systemic infection. Intestinal graft rejection occurred in six patients; rejection of the liver allograft occurred in five patients, yet all rejections were weak and successfully treated by corticosteroids (GS, 80%). CONCLUSIONS Intestinal transplantation is a valid therapeutic option for children with definitive intestinal failure and not only for short bowel syndrome. Tacrolimus improves graft and patient survival (group A v group B). The lower severity of graft rejection in combined liver-small bowel transplantation improves functional results of intestinal transplantation in children without additional mortality or morbidity (group B vgroup C).

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the authors was to report their experience with living related liver transplantation (LRLT) in children, particularly focusing on the safety of the two-center "Parisian" strategy. METHODS The records of donors and recipients of 26 pediatric living-related donor liver transplantations performed between November 1994 and March 1998 were reviewed retrospectively. Donors were assessed 1 year after transplantation for medical and overall status. RESULTS Indications for LRLT included biliary atresia (n = 18), Byler's disease (n = 5), alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (n = 1), Alagille syndrome (n = 1), and undefined cirrhosis (n = 1). Liver harvesting consisted of either a complete left hepatectomy (n = 14) or left lateral hepatectomy (n = 12) without vascular clamping. The recipient procedure essentially was the same as in split liver transplantation. Mean overall cold ischemia time averaged 140 minutes (range, 90 to 230 minutes). Twenty-four of 26 patients had end-to-end vascular anastomoses without interposition. Biliary reconstruction consisted of a Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy in all patients. All recipients except one received cyclosporine A (CSA). Mean donor hospitalization was 8 days (range, 6 to 13) with normalization of all liver function assays by the time of discharge. There were no donor deaths and two postoperative complications (perihepatic fluid collection and bleeding from the wound). One year after donation, the initial 19 donors had resumed their pretransplant status. Two of the children who underwent transplant died. Thirteen of the recipients required reoperation for hepatic artery thrombosis (n = 2), portal vein thrombosis (n = 2), biliary complications (n = 6), fluid collection (n = 3), small bowel perforation (n = 1), and plication for diaphragmatic eventration (n = 1). With mean follow-up of 2 years, 24 of 26 patients are alive and well (patient and graft survival rate, 92%). CONCLUSIONS LRLT is still controversial, even with minimal and decreasing donor risk. The "Parisian" strategy consists of harvesting the liver in an adult unit by an adult hepatic surgery team. The transplantation is then performed in a pediatric hospital by the pediatric liver transplantation team. The two steps of the procedure allow units specialized in adult surgery, on one hand, and pediatric liver transplantation, on the other hand, to dedicate themselves completely to their respective procedures, improving the safety of the harvest, and alleviating stress for both the medical staff and the families.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In a previous study, it was shown that a spontaneously tolerated DA (RT1a) liver allograft in a PVG (RT1c) recipient was able to induce tolerance of a DA small bowel graft performed 17 days later in spite of infiltration of the intestinal grafts by mononuclear cells. AIMS To compare the phenotype of graft infiltrating cells in rejecting and tolerated small bowel grafts in order to elucidate the mechanism(s) which block the graft infiltrating cells from mediating rejection. METHODS Multiparameter immunofluorescence was used to compare the phenotype and state of activation of donor and recipient cells isolated from intestinal grafts rejected or tolerated after liver transplantation. RESULTS Three differences were found. Firstly, there was a more rapid replacement of lamina propria (LP) cells by recipient lymphocytes in tolerated than in rejected grafts. Secondly, the proportion of LP recipient CD8alphabeta+ lymphocytes bearing the high affinity receptor for interleukin 2 was significantly less in tolerated grafts (1.1%, range 0-2%) than in rejected grafts (21.3%, range 9-26%). Finally, tolerated grafts contained significantly less NK lymphocytes (NKR-P1+) and macrophages than rejected intestinal allografts. CONCLUSIONS These observations make it possible to delineate clear cut differences in the phenotype of cells infiltrating rejecting versus tolerated grafts. Furthermore, the data suggest that liver transplantation induces tolerance of intestinal grafts by hampering the activation of recipient TcRalphabeta+ CD8alphabeta+ T cells and subsequently the recruitment of non-specific effector cells.

Abstract
STUDY AIM Small bowel transplantation is still hampered by a high morbidity and mortality linked to the heavy non specific immunosuppression which is required by the transplantation of this lymphoid organ. Adhesion molecules appear to be potential targets for specific immunosuppression. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of a transitory administration of anti-LFA-1 or anti-alpha 4 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) in the prevention of rejection in a model of fetal small-bowel transplantation in mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS The small bowel of C57BL/6 (H-2b) fetus (16 to 20 days of gestation) was transplanted into adult C3H/He mice (H-2k) or C57BL/6 recipient mice. Recipients were treated with a short course of either anti-LFA-1 mAb alone, either with anti-alpha 4 mAb alone, or with both mAb. Biopsies with histological study of the grafts were performed between post-operative day 5 and 60. A score of development and rejection was assigned to each sample. RESULTS Normal intestinal development with no sign of rejection was observed in 24/28 syngenic grafts till post-operative day 45. In the absence of treatment, intense rejection was observed as soon as day 5 and all allogenic grafts were rejected (n = 22). In contrast, in anti-LFA-1 mAb treated mice, 18/20 allogenic grafts developed normally with minimal signs of rejection. In anti-alpha 4 treated mice, a transient protective effect on small bowel allograft survival was observed on day 7 but thereafter, all grafts were massively rejected within a few days (n = 18). The combination of both mAb didn't improve the survival of the grafts when compared to anti-LFA-1 mAb treated grafts (n = 10). CONCLUSION These results demonstrate that a transitory administration of anti-LFA-1 mAb, but not of anti-alpha 4 mAb, is able to prolong significantly the survival of non vascularized small bowel fetal grafts in mice. Our results are promising for the possible use of the anti-LFA-1 mAb in clinical intestinal transplantation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although aggressive fetal therapies such as thoracoamniotic shunting can be applied to cystic adenomatoid malformations of the lung diagnosed in utero, there is no clear consensus regarding their indications. Our purpose was to evaluate a management policy in which aggressive fetal therapy was restricted to those cases complicated by major polyhydramnios or hydrops; all other cases were managed conservatively. STUDY DESIGN A prospective cohort study of 33 cases with a prenatal diagnosis of cystic adenomatoid malformations of the lung was performed. Thoracoamniotic shunting was offered only in nine macrocystic cases with acute polyhydramnios or hydrops. RESULTS Four cases were diagnosed postnatally as sequestrations. Of 12 cases complicated by acute polyhydramnios or hydrops, 5 survived (1 type III with spontaneous incomplete resolution in utero, 4 type I with substantial volume reduction after shunting). The 17 cases without acute polyhydramnios or hydrops were managed conservatively and survived. CONCLUSION Conservative management is indicated in cases of cystic adenomatoid malformations of the lung without acute polyhydramnios or hydrops.

Abstract
Seven children with short bowel syndrome underwent small bowel allografting. Episodes of early rejection were observed in five patients who received a graft from paediatric or adult donors but not in two patients who received a neonatal graft. This study aimed, firstly, to define immunohistochemical parameters accompanying rejection and, secondly, to compare immunohistochemical parameters in neonatal grafts with those in grafts from older donors. An immunohistochemical analysis was performed on 85 intestinal biopsy specimens taken for monitoring the transplant. Acute histological rejection was associated with pericryptic infiltrates of CD3+TcR alpha beta + T cells containing clusters of CD8+ cells, numerous CD25+ cells, and increased numbers of CD68+ macrophages. These changes were associated with the appearance of major histocompatibility (MHC) class II antigens on crypt enterocytes and with an appreciable increase in the expression of E-selectin on mucosal endothelial cells. Immunohistochemistry was useful in predicting rejection by showing the appearance of pericryptic CD25+ T cells 48 hours before the first histological lesions of crypt necrosis. Comparison of neonatal grafts with grafts from older donors did not show any significant difference in the density of CD68+ macrophages or in the endothelial expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, or E-selectin. In contrast to grafts from older donors, however, neonatal grafts did not express MHC class II antigens on epithelial cells and contained very low numbers of intraepithelial lymphocytes. These data indicate, firstly, that immunohistochemistry is useful for monitoring intestinal transplants and, secondly, that the better clinical tolerance of neonatal allografts may be related to the lower immunogenicity of the neonatal epithelium.

Abstract
In utero evolution and postnatal outcome were studied for 18 cases of congenital adenomatoid malformation (CAM) diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound. Five were macrocystic CAM, 9 were microcystic, and 4 were homogeneously hyperechogenic. Three fetuses presented with hydrops. Pulmonary amniotic shunting was performed in 3 patients. Outcome was the following: 4 were aborted, 1 died neonatally, and 13 survived. Four of these infants required no surgery in the neonatal or postneonatal period. In three of these, the size of the mass had decreased spontaneously in utero. Outcome did not appear to be related to the anatomic type of CAM nor to the presence of moderate polyhydramnios, but was related to the degree of mediastinal compression and to the existence of hydrops. A clearer understanding of the natural evolution of CAM is useful to determine the indications for in utero therapy.

Abstract
Pheochromocytoma is an uncommon tumor in childhood; nevertheless, 20% of all pheochromocytomas are found in the pediatric population. Fifteen children have been treated in our institution from 1962 to 1990. One percent of patients referred over the same period for investigation of high blood pressure were found to have a pheochromocytoma. The majority of patients have hypertension. It varies in intensity and is paroxysmal in about half the patients. Many pediatric cases of unilateral, bilateral, extra-adrenal, familial, and recurrent pheochromocytomas have been reported. We reviewed our 28 years experience with this tumor and concentrated on the diagnosis, the preoperative and operative management, and the occurrence of the multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes.

Abstract
Vascular thrombosis is one of the main causes of early transplant failure in pediatric patients. This paper reports the results of an open trial of the low molecular weight heparin (Enoxaparine) used to prevent renal graft thrombosis in pediatric recipients with risk factors including donor or recipient age under 5 years, multiple arteries supplying the transplant, and positive history for recurrent thrombosis. During 1989, 42 of 67 children given a renal transplant were prophylactically treated with Enoxaparin. Only one transplant was lost to thrombosis among treated patients (1.5%), versus 9 transplants among 73 (12%) children who received their kidney in 1988 without prophylactic Enoxaparin. Risk factors were comparable in both groups of recipients. Enoxaparine therapy was associated with an increased rate of bleeding (12/42) without severe consequences. In conclusion, Enoxaparin is effective in preventing renal graft thrombosis. Availability of this prophylactic therapy makes it possible to use transplants removed from the youngest donors considered as inadequate by some groups.

Abstract
A group of 176 patients aged 2 to 15 years was investigated for idiopathic disorders of bowel function other than Hirschsprung's disease. Anorectal motility, as well as colorectal transit of radiopaque markers, were investigated. Before the end of the first month of life, 70 of the patients were constipated. Resting pressure was more unstable (P less than 0.001) and higher than normal in the rectal ampulla and upper anal canal (P less than 0.01). Retardation of markers occurred in the proximal and/or distal large bowel of 61% of the patients. The existence of functional abnormalities was demonstrated in the majority of children with idiopathic disorders of fecal continence.

Abstract
Fifty cases of gastroschisis were treated at the Hôpital des Enfants Malades from 1960 to 1976. Up to 1973, 90% of the babies died. From 1974-1976, 17 infants were treated and 10 (59%) were cured. The authors emphasise the importance of intravenous feeding, the prevention of infections and intensive respiratory care. Complete intestinal ileus for more than one month is associated with a bad prognosis. The use of drugs and further surgery in this situation in discussed.
