Tóm tắt Đặt vấn đề: Ứng dụng phẫu thuật nội soi ổ bụng kết hợp với đường qua hậu môn cắt đoạn đại trực tràng vô hạch ở trẻ 2 - 6 tháng tuổi tại khoa Nhi bệnh viện Việt Đức Phương pháp nghiên cứu: Nghiên cứu hồi cứu cho trẻ 2 - 6 tháng tuổi được chẩn đoán phình đại tràng bẩm sinh dựa vào lâm sàng, chụp đại tràng có thuốc cản quang và sinh thiết tức thì trong mổ. Phẫu thuật 1 thì, nội soi ổ bụng sử dụng 3 trocars phẫu tích đoạn đại tràng cần cắt bỏ, kết hợp đường qua hậu môn sử dụng van Lonestar bóc đoạn trực tràng trên đường lược khỏi thanh cơ phương pháp Soave, kéo đoạn đại tràng vô hạch ra ngoài qua hậu môn, cắt và nối đại tràng lành với ống hậu môn. Đánh giá kết quả theo tiêu chuẩn Wingspread 1984 Kết quả: Trong thời gian từ tháng 6/2014 đến tháng 6/2017 có 32 người bệnh được phẫu thuật nội soi, tuổi trung bình 3,5 tháng.

Abstract Introduction: Laparoscopic assisted endorectal colon pull-through for Hirschsprung's disease have been applied for children under 6 month old in Viet Duc hospital Material and Methods: Restrospective. Children from 2 to 6 month with diagnosis of Hirschsprung's disease by clinical, radiological symptoms and biopsy during operation. Laparoscopic assisted endorectal colon pull- through by using Lonestar valve for resection of colon and coloanal anastomosis. Functional defecation is assessed according to the standard of Wingspread 1984. Results: 32 patients during from 6/2014 to 6/2017. Mean age: 3,5 months old, average operating time: 150 ± 40 minutes, average hospital stay time: 7,4 ± 2,2 days. The aganglionics lower sigmoid segment in 19 patiens (59,37%), 1/3 middle sigmoid segment in 11 patiens (34,38%), sigmoid segment in 2 patiens (6,25%). Non bleeding during the operation, no conversion to open surgery, no anastomotic fistula. Follow – up postoperative from 3 months to 4 years peri-anal: infection 6 patients (18,75%), enterocolitis 8 patients (25%), fecal incontinence 5 patients (15,62%), constipation 1 patient (4,45%). Functional defecation assessement: very good 68,75; good 21,88; average 9,37%. No re- operation. Conclusion: Single stage laparoscopic assisted endorectal colon pull- through for Hirschsprung's disease in children under 6 month old is safe with good functional defecation assessement.

Objective: Hirschsprung’s disease is one of the common causes of intestinal obstruction in neonates. Transanal endorectal pull-through represents the latest development in the concept of the minimally invasive surgery for Hirschsprung’s disease. In this study, we present our early experience with single stage transanal pull through in neonates. Design: Retrospective study of neonates with single stage transanal pull-through done for Hirschsprung’s disease in our institute from January 2011 to January 2013. Material and Method: Five newborn boys who presented with Hirschsprung’s disease were studied. The selection criteria included radiological transition zone at rectosigmoid or mid-sigmoid region, weight more than 2 kg, no evidence of enterocolitis or sepsis and no associated major anomaly. Single stage transanal endorectal pull-through was done in these patients. The follow-up period ranged from 6 months to 2 years. Results: Five patients with a mean age of 26.4 days (range 15-45 days) and a mean weight of 2.6 Kg (range 2.2 to 3.7 Kg) underwent transanal endorectal pull through. The mean operating time was 68 min (range 60 to 120 min). The average intra-operative blood loss was 20 ml (range – 10 to 30 ml) and the average length of bowel resected was 12.8 cm (range – 10 to 18 cm). Post-operatively patients passed first stool between 2nd and 3rd day. Oral feeding was resumed on 5th to 6th post-operative day. The average post-operative duration of stay in hospital was 10 days. None of the patients had post-operative bleeding, urethral injury, anastomotic leak or retraction of anastomotic site. Three patients developed perianal excoriation and one patient had post-operative enterocolitis. No mortality occurred in the series. Conclusion: Advancement in pediatric anaesthesia, availability of pediatric surgical expertise, improvement in pre-operative and post-operative management and nursing care has made single stage transanal pull-through in neonates a feasible option. The early results are comparable to single stage or multistage surgery in older children.

On 24th August 2015, the spelling of the third author's name was changed from Dhaubhadel TO Dhoubhadel - Editor.Introduction: Recent trends in surgery for Hirschsprung’s disease (HD) have been towards earlier operation and fewer surgical stages. A single-stage transanal endorectal pull through (TEPT) is the latest development and minimally invasive technique for HD. This observational prospective study was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of single-stage TEPT technique in the management of rectosigmoid HD.Materials and Methods: Infants and children with biopsy-proved aganglionosis and barium enema (BE) documented rectosigmoid HD were included for single stage TEPT. Twenty children aged 22 days to 7 years (17 boys and 3 girls) underwent one stage TEPT over 5 year period. Median follow up was 18 months (range 6-36 months). These patients were evaluated with regard to age, sex, intraoperative details, postoperative functional outcome and complications and need for secondary surgical procedure.Results: The operating time was 105-180 minutes (mean 120 minutes). The length of resected bowel was 18-30 cm (mean 25 cm). Intraoperative blood loss was 5-40 ml, less in infants compared to older children. Blood transfusion was needed in none out of 12 infants and 2 out of 8 older children. Transient perianal excoriation occurred in 16 patients. Postoperative enterocolitis occurred in one patient. One patient developed constipation with encopresis following anastomotic stricture. None had adhesive obstruction and prolapse of pulled through colon, one required colostomy for anastomotic leakage and peritonitis while another had retained aganglionic segment and re-do pull through was required.Conclusion: Single-stage TEPT can be performed successfully in all age of children. The technique is safe, easily learned and has good clinical results.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jnps.v34i3.11617  J Nepal Paediatr Soc 2014;34(3):188-194

Background: The surgical management of Hirschsprung's Disease (HD) includes so many procedures. TransanalEndorectal Pull through (TEP) represents the latest development in the concept of the minimally invasive surgery for HD. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the out come of the procedure in neonates. Methods: This retrospective study was carried out in a tertiary pediatric hospital during the period from January 2007 to December 2012 (5 years). The study included neonates of both sex, weight more than 2 kg, who were clinically suspected HD, radiologically transition zone at rectosigmoid and midsigmoid region and rectal biopsy proven HD and no evidence of sepsis or entrocolitis. Short segment HD with associated anomalies, and operated cases with less than 6 months' or irregular follow up were excluded. Results: During study period, single-stage transanalendorectal pull through (TEP) operation was done for short segment HD in 63 neonates, 9 patients were excluded from the study for irregular follow up. The mean operative time, mean blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, follow up period were 113 minutes, 20ml, 6.8 days and 19.6 months respectively. Transverse colostomy was needed in 6 patients for anastomotic leakage, thereafter developed anastomotic stricture, managed with regular anastomotic dilatation. Conclusion: Advancement in pediatric anesthesia, improvement of pediatric surgical expertise, perioperative management and nursing care has made single-stage primary transanalendorectal pull-through a feasible and safe surgical procedure for the treatment of short segment Hirschsprung's disease in neonate.
