Omental Herniation

Trocar site hernia (TSH) is a type of incisional hernia occurring at the trocar sites after minimal invasive surgeries, most often in adult patients with non-sutured trocar sites. This is a case report of a 5 mm trocar site omental herniation six years after laparoscopic appendectomy in a nine-year-old boy to emphasize that incisions should be closed using fascial and cutaneous sutures, regardless of trocar size and localization, to prevent TSH. We conducted a brief review of the literature on this topic.

Lancefield Group

We report a case of necrotizing fasciitis with an accompanying toxic shock syndrome caused by Group G Streptococcus in a pediatric patient with a lymphatic malformation. Pediatricians need to be aware of the possibility of such infections, especially in those with vascular/lymphatic malformations, as early treatment is critical for survival.
