An unusual case of intramural Meckel's diverticulum as a lead point for ileoileal intussusception - Laparoscopically assisted management
No full textIntussusception is a frequent cause of intestinal obstruction in children. Ileoileal intussusception is rare and it is secondary to pathological or congenital lead points. We report an unusual case of an intramural Meckel's diverticulum as a lead point for ileoileal intussusception presenting with acute lower intestinal bleeding. Laparoscopically assisted resection of the involved ileum was successfully accomplished
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

No full textA Rare Case of Chylothorax due to Pulmonary Lymphangiectasia in a 7-Year-Old Boy
Full text linkPulmonary lymphangiectasia (PL) is a rare condition characterized by dilatation of the lymphatic vessels. Post-neonatal PL is usually associated with pleural effusion and should therefore be suspected in the presence of chylothorax. We describe a post-neonatal manifestation of PL in a 7-year-old boy presenting chylothorax. Radiological examinations included thorax X-ray, ultrasound, and computed tomography scans. After the failure of conservative management (maintenance of the chest tube, total parenteral nutrition, administration of somatostatin synthetic analogues) we performed a thoracoscopic massive ligation of the thoracic duct's collateral along with a lung biopsy. Histology was compatible with type 1 congenital pulmonary lymphangectasia. One month after surgery a thoracoscopic pleurodesis was required for persistent chylothorax. The boy is now doing well 1 year after surgery
Congenital lobar emphysema
No full textCongenital lobar emphysema (CLE) is a pulmonary congenital malformation characterized by hyperinflation. After birth, a dysfunctional valve mechanism (air enters the alveoli thanks to negative pressure but cannot be released because the tracheobronchial tree has collapsed) leads to air trapping. Cle has all the features of obstructive emphysema: compression of lung parenchyma; mediastinal shift, herniation of the emphysematous lobe across the anterior mediastinum; and reduced respiratory reserve due to lowering of the diaphragm [1-2]
