Abstract

Purpose

Extrahepatic portal vein obstruction (EHPVO) is a major cause of non-cirrhotic portal hypertension in children. Surgical procedures for EHPVO include portosystemic shunts (PSS) and meso-Rex bypass (MRB). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the effectiveness of MRB versus PSS in EHPVO patients.

Methods

A systematic literature search was performed using four databases. Articles reporting EHPVO and comparing patients who received MRB and PSS were included in the analysis.

Results

We retrieved 851 papers, of which five observational studies met the inclusion criteria. There was no difference in shunt complications, mortality, or gastrointestinal bleeding after surgery between MRB and PSS in the meta-analysis. MRB had increased shunt complications compared with PSS in the non-comparative studies. MRB had a potential advantage over PSS in long-term prognosis in one comparative study. Overall, the quality of the evidence was low.

Conclusions

Based on available data, our meta-analysis indicates that MRB does not increase shunt complications, mortality, or gastrointestinal bleeding after surgery. The present study did not reveal superiority for either MRB or PSS. The paucity of well conducted trials in this area justifies future multicenter studies and studies that examine long-term outcomes.

ADHS-Medikation erhöht das kardiovaskuläre Risiko

16.05.2024 Herzinsuffizienz Nachrichten

Erwachsene, die Medikamente gegen das Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-Hyperaktivitätssyndrom einnehmen, laufen offenbar erhöhte Gefahr, an Herzschwäche zu erkranken oder einen Schlaganfall zu erleiden. Es scheint eine Dosis-Wirkungs-Beziehung zu bestehen.

Erstmanifestation eines Diabetes-Typ-1 bei Kindern: Ein Notfall!

16.05.2024 DDG-Jahrestagung 2024 Kongressbericht

Manifestiert sich ein Typ-1-Diabetes bei Kindern, ist das ein Notfall – ebenso wie eine diabetische Ketoazidose. Die Grundsäulen der Therapie bestehen aus Rehydratation, Insulin und Kaliumgabe. Insulin ist das Medikament der Wahl zur Behandlung der Ketoazidose.

Frühe Hypertonie erhöht späteres kardiovaskuläres Risiko

Wie wichtig es ist, pädiatrische Patienten auf Bluthochdruck zu screenen, zeigt eine kanadische Studie: Hypertone Druckwerte in Kindheit und Jugend steigern das Risiko für spätere kardiovaskuläre Komplikationen.

Betalaktam-Allergie: praxisnahes Vorgehen beim Delabeling
