4. • Herniation of abdominal contents into the chest
through a congenital defect in the diaphragm.
• Aetiology & Embryology: failure of fusion of the
septum transversum w the dorso-lateral
diaphragmatic processes(pleuro-peritoneal
membranes)
• Types :
-Posterior (Bochdalek) 90% , lt 5x >Rt
-Anterior (Morgagni)
-Eventration (just weakness & upward eversion of
the diaphragm with no actual defect)

17. Definition:Definition:
• Esophageal atresia (EA) is an interruption or
discontinuity
• Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is an abnormal
communication
• EA may be present with or without a TEF.
• TEF may be present with or without EA.
20. PathophysiologyPathophysiology
• Failure of swallowing….dehydration &
hypoglycemia
• Proximal obstruction….Aspiration
• Distal fistula…..regurgitation of acid into
the stmoach……..Severe pneumonia
21. DiagnosisDiagnosis
• Maternal history of polyhydramnios.
• Excessive salivation, drooling ,coughing,choking
cyanosis during the first oral feeding.
• Chemical and aspiration pneumonia
• The inability to pass a nasogastric tube into the stomach
• X-ray: -coiling of the tube in the upper mediastinum.
-gastrointestinal gas ??
• contrast study
• TEF w/o atresia presents with recurrent aspiration

23. ManagementManagement
1-Preoperative preparation1-Preoperative preparation
•Oral feeding prohibited
•Continuous suction
•NICU admission:
Supine and elevated to 30 ~ 40º
incubator,oxygen inhalation, Endotracheal
tube distal to the TEF minimize the leak and
permit adequate ventilation.
•I.V fluids and broad-spectrum antibiotics
•Exclude VACTERL.
•Urgent surgical repair after rapid preoperative
preparation
24. • Low-risk infants should get primary repair :
• high-risk babies get gastrostomy
• Rt thoracotomy through the 4th
intercostal space.
• Operation includes TEF ligation, transection, and
restoration with end-to-end anastamosis over a
ryle tube.
• An ICT is inserted in the Rt pleural space.
• POD 5-7 esophagram, if no leak, feed, remove
drain.

42. DEFINITION:
• The Invagination or telescoping of a proximal segment of bowel
(intussusceptum) into the lumen of a distal segment (intussuscipiens).
Intussusceptum
=proximal portion
Intussuscipens
=distal portion
43. INCIDENCE:
• Second most common cause of acute
abdominal pain in children following
appendicitis
• Found between 3 months to 2 years of
age, peaking at 5-7 months
44. AETIOLOGY:
Idiopathic 90%
(Most are ileocolic)
Lead point <10%
•Most common is Meckel’s diverticulum
•Other possibilities : polyps, hemangiomas,
lymphomas, cyst;appendix, intestinal neoplasm,
submucosal hemorrhage associated with
Henoch-Schönlein purpura, foreign body, ectopic
pancreatic or gastric tissue, and intestinal
duplication.
Hypotheses of etiologies:……..
45. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
• The invaginated segment is carried distally by
peristalsis.
• Mesnetery and vessels become involved with the
intraluminal loop and are squeezed within the
engulfing segment causing venous congestion.
• Types: enteroenteric, enterocolic, and colocolic.
46. DIAGNOSIS:
1-CLINICALLY:
• Cramping abdominal pain in an otherwise healthy child.
• drawing the legs up during the pain episodes After some
time, the child becomes lethargic.
• Vomiting.
• Constipation although frequent bowel movements may
occur with the onset of pain.
• “currant jelly” stool :dark blood clots mixed with mucus,
• An abdominal mass. & Signe de Dance
47. CLASSIC TRIAD:
Colicky abdominal pain
-pulling knees up to abdomen
Sausage shaped Abdomina
Mass
-sausage shaped
“Red Currant Jelly” or bloody
stools
present in only 20-50% of cases
48. 2-IMAGING:
1-Abdominal X-Ray
Low sensitivity, high false negative rate
Can be negative in early IS
Uses:
-Diagnosis of intussusception
-Evaluating for risk of perforation before enema treatment
-Diagnosis of other diseases (SBO, LBO, volvulus)
•Radiographic signs of Intussusception:
target sign
crescent sign
absent liver edge sign (also called absence of the subhepatic angle)
bowel obstruction
May have a normal x-ray!
51. • An abdominal film showing
signs of small bowel
obstruction (multiple dilated
intestinal loops mainly in the
center of the abdomen with
vavulae coniventes)
52. • Erect film showing multiple
fluid levels in the small bowel
54. 2-ULTRASOUND
•Used to diagnose IS and prevent unnecessary enemas
High sensitivity and specificity
No radiation exposure
Exclude other pathologies.
•Findings:
-target sign (transverse)
-sandwich sign (longitudinal)
61. 2-REDUCTION ENEMA:
• When the clinical index of suspicion for intussusception is high,
hydrostatic reduction by contrast agent or air enema is the
diagnostic and therapeutic procedure of choice.
• Types of enemas
Pneumatic (air enema)
Hydrostatic (fluid enema)
Barium Enema (fluid with contrast)
63. 3-SURGERY:
Exploration through a transverse supraumblical incision
- Viable intestines:Reduction by milking (with
appendectomy,excision of associated Meckel`s
diverticulum…)
-Gangrenous loop: Resection of the affected segment
with: -primary anastmosis
-proximal ileostomy or colostomy and distal
mucous fistula
67. Hirschsprung’s DiseaseHirschsprung’s Disease
• Neurogenic form of intestinal obstruction
• Absence of ganglion cells in the myenteric
and submucosal plexus
• Failure in relaxation of the internal anal
sphincter and affected bowel
• Upstream bowel becomes dilated
secondary to distal obstruction
68. Pathogenesis:Pathogenesis:
• Failure of neural crest cells to migrate caudally
• Aganglionosis begins at anorectal line
• 80% involve only rectosigmoid area
• 10% extend proximal to splenic flexure
• 10% involves the entire colon and part of small
bowel (Total colonic aganglionosis)
• Rarely involves entire gastrointestinal tract
69. Presentation:Presentation:
• Severe abdominal distention
• 95% - failure to pass meconium in first 24
hours life
• Bilious vomiting
• PR examination…gush of stools & gas
• Older children - constipation, failure to thrive
• 10-15% -Present with Hirschsprung’s
enterocolitis severe explosive diarrhea
,fever ,dehydration and abd distension.
78. Barium EnemaBarium Enema
• Less sensitive for detecting
short and ultrashort segment HSD
total colon aganglionosis, and
disease of the newborn (Many newborns
do NOT show definitive transition zone but
only delayed evacuation of contrast)
81. Management:Management:
1-Definitive repair:1-Definitive repair:
• Transanal Pull-through operations (in prone jack-knife
position)
The most commonly used is the Trans-anal
endorectal mucosal excision (Soave)
A transanal approach is usually sufficent but
abdominal incision is sometimes needed for
mobilization of long segment HSD or in older
children.
• Laparoscopic assissted transanal pullthrough
is a recent approach that uses laparoscopy for
mobilizing the colon , facilitating the procedure
and avoiding bdominal incision.
82. Laparoscopic Assissted transanal pullthrough : the affected
segment has been withdrawn through the anus after being
dissected free from its mesentry and blood vessels using
laparoscopy
84. 2-Hirshsprung enterocolitis:
• It`s is a medical emergency requiring:
-Hospital admission and observation
-NPO
-I.V fluids
-Broad spectrum antibiotics and metronidazole
-Frequent colonic irrigation.
• Surgery is indicated in cases of :
-Failure of conservation.
-Evidence of bowel perforation
in the form of a leveling transverse or sigmoid
loop colostomy.
87. Meckel’s DiverticulumMeckel’s Diverticulum (Disease of 2 )(Disease of 2 )
• Found in 2% of the population.
• Symptomatizes in only 2% of affected people.
• Majority of symptomatic cases < 2yrs old
• 2 feet from ileocecal valve.
• About 2 inches in length.
• contains 2 types of ectopic tissue: gastric and/or
pancreatic.
89. GI Bleeding:GI Bleeding:
• Most common cause of bleeding in
children
• Painless, massive, usually self resolving
• Due to mucosal ulceration from acid
secretion
90. Bowel ObstructionBowel Obstruction
• Due to
-Intussusception, (diverticulum is the lead point)
-Mesodiverticular bands (connecting the
diverticulum to the mesentry and kinking of the
intestine or internal herniation)
91. Operative photo of a 4 years old child presented with intestinal
obstruction.Exploration revealed a mesodiverticular band which was divided
followed by wedge excision of the Meckel`s diverticulum with primary repair
92. Meckel’s Diverticulitis:Meckel’s Diverticulitis:
• Symptoms simulate acute appendicitis
• Result of luminal obstruction, bacterial
invasion, progressive inflammation
• Ectopic gastric mucosa predisposes
• 30% incidence of perforations
• Higher risk of peritonitis
94. 2-Incidentally found Meckel`s: (during
operation for another cause)
-If healthy wall,wide based and of short
length …..leave alone
-If narrow based ,long ….excise
97. FrequencyFrequency
• Anorectal malformations occur in approximately 1 per 5000
live births
One of the most frequently encountered digestive tract
abnormality
Frequency is slightly higher in males compared with females
Associated anomaly: urogenital,another gastrointestinal anomaly,
cardiovascular, vertebra
Arrest of the caudal descent of the urorectal septum toward the
cloacal membrane during the fourth week and ending by the
eighth week of gestation.
100. Clinical Findings:Clinical Findings:
• Findings are associated with a high malformation
– A flat perineum, as evidenced by the lack of a midline gluteal
fold
– absence of an anal dimple, indicates that the patient has poor
muscles in the perineum.
• Perineal signs found in patients with low malformations
include
– the presence of meconium at the perineum,
– a bucket-handle malformation
– anal membrane (through which meconium is visible).
108. Associated malformationsAssociated malformations
• The following associated anomalies can
occur separately or as VACTERL
associations:
– Esophageal atresia
– Duodenal atresia
– Ventricular or atrioseptal defects
– Tetrology of Fallot
– Hirschsprung's disease
114. a group of congenital anomalies resulting from
abnormal intestinal rotation and fixation
115. Week 6~8: Herniation of midgut into the umbilical cord
with a 180 degree of counterclockwise rotation along the
axis of superior mesenteric artery
Week 10: Return to the abdominal cavity with a final 90
degree of rotation to complete the 270-degree
counterclockwise rotation
116. Nonrotation and Incomplete rotation: abnormal positioning of
the proximal small bowel and the cecum
Duodenum compressed by abnormal peritoneal band(Ladd’s
band): high incomplete extrinsic obstruction
Midgut volvulus: torsion of the narrow mesenteric pedicle
produces an acute closed-loop intestinal obstruction and
vascular strangulation.
Proximal jejunum fused to the ascending colon by anomalous
peritoneal attachments
117.
118. Newborn with:
Emesis : bilious, intermittent , occur at 3-5 days after birth or
asymptomatic
Abdominal distention: confined in epigastrium or diffuse to the full
abdomen in bowel necrosis
Stool: normal meconium or bloody stool with volvulus and necrosis
Children and infant: asymptomatic since birth, intermittent or
sudden onset of intestinal obstruction
119. 1-Plain X-ray : double-bubble sign
2-Barium meal follow through : incomplete
duodenal obstruction; ligament of Treitz not to the left of
the midline; abnormal position of the proximal jejunal
loops to the right of the midline
3-Barium enema: cecum in the upper or left abdomen
120. TreatmentTreatment
Principles:
-Asymptomatic malrotation
most recommend surgical treatment
some believe operation only necessary in young children
-High intestinal obstruction
operated on promptly, but not necessarily emergently
-Volulus with sign of bowel necrosis: immediate operation
121. Ladd′s operation )or Procedure(:
Untwisting: Volvulus is always clockwise so the
small bowel must be rotated in a counterclockwise
fashion.
Division of Ladd’s bands.
Broadening of the base of the mesentry.
Redistribution of small bowel to the right and colon
to the left of the abdominal cavity
Appendictomy: to avoid misdiagnosis of
appendicitis later on.
