Background: This study was conducted to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of intravenous ketorolac and wound infiltration in producing postherniorrhaphy analgesia in pediatric surgery. Methods: Forty consenting healthy children, aged 3~7 yr, were randomly assigned to receive intravenous ketorolac (1 mg/kg) or wound infiltration (0.25% bupivacaine 0.3 ml/kg) before closure of the surgical wound after inguinal herniorrhaphy. Pain was evaluated by using an observer pain score at 30 min, 60 min and 4 hrs intervals, postoperatively. Results: It is statistically significant that the wound infiltration group had lesser pain than the ketorolac group at 30 min and 60 min. But there is no difference between the groups at 4 hrs, postoperatively. Conclusions: We concluded that wound infiltration may provide better analgesia compared to intravenous ketorolac for up to 4 hours postoperative for treatment of pain after inguinal herniorrhaphy in pediatric surgery.

Patients treated with peritoneal dialysis have increased intra-abdominal pressure and a high prevalence of abdominal wall complications. Hernias can lead to significant morbidity in patients on peritoneal dialysis. Hernias are clinically important because of the risk of incarceration, strangulation and subsequent bowel obstruction, rupture, and peritonitis. In this paper, a case of incarcerated umbilical hernia with small bowel obstruction in a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patient is reported. The small bowel obstruction improved after herniorrhaphy, and the peritoneal dialysis was resumed 2 weeks after the herniorrhaphy. The patient had been undergoing CAPD without technical failure until the 2 months follow-up after the herniorrhaphy. This case shows that early detection of incarcerated umbilical hernia and herniorrhaphy can prevent resection of a strangulated small bowel so that it can remain on CAPD without post-operative technical failure. Umbilical hernias should be carefully observed and intestinal obstruction should be considered when a CAPD patient with an umbilical hernia has abdominal pain.

A 2 months old female Korean domestic shorthair cat weighing 1.2 kg was come to hospital because of respiratory discomfort and lethargy. Heart sounds was more intense and clear on the right side than the left. On radiographic views, loss of the normal diaphragm line, undistinguishable shadow of heart, shadow of gas-containing intestines could be observed in thoracic cavity. Diaphragmatic herniorrhaphy was performed by using propofol 8 mg/kg IV and isoflurane without any complication. On 7th day after the operation, almost all the clinical signs and radiographs including diaphragmatic line, cardiac silhouette, liver and small intestines were turned to normal.

Traumatic flank hernia (TFH) is rare and prone to recurrence, which makes appropriate treatment challenging. No current guidelines define the optimal timing and method of repair. Meanwhile, recent advances in laparoscopic techniques are reshaping the options for the treatment of TFH. A dual approach that utilizes both laparoscopic and open methods has not previously been reported. Herein, we present the successful treatment of TFH after blunt trauma. A 46-year-old male patient underwent elective herniorrhaphy on hospital day 3, in which laparoscopic implantation of a sublay mesh and extracorporeal implantation of an onlay mesh were performed. Such techniques may be appropriate and result in feasible outcomes in hemodynamically stable patients with large TFH who are strongly suspected of having bowel herniation or concomitant intraperitoneal injuries. Larger studies are needed to assess the long-term results.

체중 1.8 kg 5년령 중성화 수컷 치와와 개가 오른쪽 회음부 팽대 평가를 위해 건국대학교 부속 동물병원에 내원하였다. 회음부 팽대 외에 다른 증상이 없었으며 신체 검사에서 환납성 회음탈장임을 확인 하였다. 회음 탈장 교정을 위해 수정 된 전통 탈장 봉합술과 수정 된 내폐쇄근 변위 탈장 봉합술을 동시에 실시 하였다. 수술 한달 후 보호자가 왼쪽 회음부 팽대를 보고하였고 수의사의 신체검사에서 왼쪽 회음탈장이 확인 되었다. 수술 중 좌골, 등쪽, 뒤쪽 회음탈장의 동시 발생이 관찰 되었으며 회음 탈장 교정을 위해 위와 동일한 탈장 봉합술을 실시하였다. 정기 점진은 수의사의 신체 검사 혹은 보호자와의 전화 통화를 통해 실시 되었으며 양측 수술 부위에서 수술과 관련한 합병 증상이 없음을 확인하였다.

This case presents application of bioadhesive for inguinal hernia repair of Jeju native pigs. An inguinal hernia was diagnosed in Jeju native pigs, respectively, 3 days of age and 30 days of age, by physical and radiographic examination. Inguinal herniorrhaphy was performed under sedation with azaperone. After excision of scrotal sac, gently separated testis and intestinal loops. Herniated testis was isolated from scrotal sac and intestinal loops were replaced in the abdominal cavity. The external inguinal ring surface and skin closed using the technique of tissue adhesive. The patients were recovered without post-operative complications. This result considered that bioadhesive application could be a simple method to reduction of scrotal hernia without post-treatment like removal of sutures.

Chronic postoperative inguinal pain (CPIP) is a major complication after inguinal herniorrhaphy. We report the treatment of CPIP using ultrasonography-combined with nerve stimulator for injection of the genitofemoral nerve (GFN). A 59-year-old man underwent laparoscopic herniorrhaphy and presented with numbness from the inguinal region to the scrotum after operation. In the pain clinic, ultrasonography-guided GFN block and pharmacological treatments had little effect. Six month after operation, patient was referred to the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, and ultrasonography-combined with nerve stimulator for GFN injection underwent to enhance the accuracy of neural approach. The induction of scrotal contraction and paresthesia on the GFN distribution was monitored by nerve stimulator and local anesthetic was injected. After the block, pain relief lasted for 6 months without analgesic use. Ultrasonography-combined with nerve stimulator is an effective approach to treat CPIP as it enhances precise localization and injection of small peripheral nerve like GFN.

A diaphragm is a musculotendinous partition that separates abdominal and thoracic organs and assists in ventilation. Three dogs were presented after being hit by a car, and one dog was presented with the history of respiratory problems including intermittent dyspnea and coughing. Survey thoracic radiography, positive contrast celiography and sonography revealed traumatic diaphragmatic hernia in three dogs and congenital peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia in one dog. In three dogs including a dog with congenital peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia, herniorrhaphy was performed. Among the three dogs underwent surgery, two dogs with traumatic diaphragmatic hernia recovered uneventfully. However the dog with congenital peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia died from pulmonary edema at 2 days after surgery. Positive-contrast ceilography and ultrasonography provides to investigate the integrity of the diaphragm. Chronic diaphragmatic hernia and concurrent injuries are considered as prognostic factors.
