568 Section III / Subspecialty Surgery |
|
How is the diagnosis made? |
Physical exam—abdominal distention; |
|
RUQ mass that moves with |
|
respiration |
|
Elevated serum -fetoprotein and ferritin |
|
(can be used as tumor markers) |
|
CT scan of abdomen, which often |
|
predicts resectability |
What percentage will have |
90% |
an elevated -fetoprotein |
|
level? |
|
What is the treatment? |
Resection by lobectomy or trisegment- |
|
ectomy is the treatment of choice |
|
(plus postoperative chemotherapy); |
|
large tumors may require preoperative |
|
chemotherapy and subsequent hepatic |
|
resection |
What is the overall survival rate?
What is the major difference in age presentation between hepatoma and hepatoblastoma?

of splenic and liver injuries |
|
treated in children? |
|
What is a common simulator Gastric distention (place an NG tube) of peritoneal signs in the
blunt pediatric trauma victim?
How do you estimate normal systolic blood pressure (SBP) in a child?
80 2 age (e.g., a 5-year-old child should have an SBP of about 90)
Chapter 67 / Pediatric Surgery 569
What is the 20–20–10 rule for fluid resuscitation of the unstable pediatric trauma patient?
What CT scan findings suggest small bowel injury?
What is the treatment for duodenal hematoma?
First give a 20-cc/kg LR bolus followed by a second bolus of 20-cc/kg LR bolus if needed; if the patient is still unstable after the second LR bolus, then administer a 10-cc/kg bolus of blood
Free fluid with no evidence of liver or spleen injury; free air, contrast leak, bowel thickening, mesentery streaking
Observation with NGT and TPN
OTHER PEDIATRIC SURGERY QUESTIONS

Malrotation, until proven otherwise! (About 90% of patients with malrotation present before the first year of life)
Nonbacterial fetal and neonatal infections: TOxoplasmosis, Rubella, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), HErpes, Syphilis
Chloral hydrate
Hypospadias, etc., because the foreskin might be needed for future repair of the abnormality
1.5 cm, after 4 years of age; otherwise observe, because most close spontaneously; repair before school age if it persists
10 the normal testicular cancer rate
All patients with undescended testicle undergo orchidopexy after 1 year of age
570 Section III / Subspecialty Surgery |

What are some signs of child |
Cigarette burns, rope burns, scald to |
|
abuse? |

operation in hemangiomas? |
heart failure, functional impairment |
|
|
(vision, breathing) |
|
What are treatment options |
Steroids, radiation, surgical resection, |
|
for hemangiomas? |
angiographic embolization |
|
