Background: Evaluation of the result of early and delayed repair of anterior and distal penile hypospadias. A total number of 144 patients of anterior and distal penile hypospadias with/without chordee were evaluated by follow up study in our hospital and private hospital from January 2010 to July 2013. Redo cases, complex hypospadias and proximal hypospadias were excluded. Simple Random sampling technique was followed to the patients were grouped into Group-A (72 patients) and Group-B(72 patients) on the basis of age of the patients. Both Group-A, age between 6 to 18 months and Group-B, more than 18 month to 14 years were operated by Snodgrass procedure. We did follow up 12- 24 months postoperatvely. It can be recommended for repair of anterior and distal penile hypospadias within 6 to 18 months whenever the question of post urethroplasty cosmosis, wound disruption and formation of urethra cutaneous fistula.J Shaheed Suhrawardy Med Coll, December 2015, Vol.7(2); 69-72

Background: Circumcision is the most common surgical procedure performed in boys through out the world. Meatal stenosis is one of its late complications. Objective: The aim of the present study is to see the effectiveness of use of lubricants vaseline-petrelium jelly) during arumcision meatal stenosis. Methodology: A randomized control trial was performed, in which two groups of boys younger than two years old underwent circumcision according to dissection (sleeve) method. The parents in the study groups were strictly instructed to use petroleum jelly on the meatus and circumcision site at every morning or after each diaper change where necessary for three months. On the other hand parents in the control group were instructed not to use any lubricants or topical medication on the same site. The boys were followed up regularly and evaluated for meatal stenosis, bleeding and infection. Results: A total of 120 boys were recruited & in each group comprised of 60 boys. None of the boys in the study group develop meatal stenosis , but 6(10%) in the control group develop meatal stenosis (p< 0.05 ). Infection of the circumcision site was seen in 1 (0.6%) and 3 (5%) children in the lubricant and control groups, respectively (p

Background: Many approach have been tried for management of vestibular fistula, most of them have post operative complication like wound infection, wound dehiscence, more hospital stay which compromise the functional out come and aesthetic appearance of the perineum. Objective: The aim of present study was to see the effectiveness of Transfistula Anorectplasty (TFARP) Which was required minimal dissection without interruption of perineal body and perineal skin. Methodology: The cross sectional study on 43 patients with vestibular fistula were held in Dhaka Shishu Hospital from September 2008 to April 2010. Patients were operated after obtaining informed consent and standard bowel preparation. Data on demographics, operation time and postoperative complications were collected as a questionnaire and plotted on Microsoft Excel and analyzed systematically by SPSS version 17. Patients were followed up for a period of 2½ months postoperatively. Results: There is no statistical deference in patient population regarding age, geographical distribution, and clinical presentation. Mean operation time was 76.5 min for TFARP and 84.34 min for ASARP. Two (02) cases had wound infection after TFARP operation and 11 patients after ASARP operation. One patient develops partial wound dehiscence after TFARP and was healed after conservative treatment within 7 days. On the other hand 05 patients developed partial wound dehiscence and 04 patients developed complete wound disruption after ASARP which were also treated conservatively need more than 2 weeks on an average. Mean hospital stay were 6.45 days after TFARP operation and mean hospital stay were 7.87 days after ASARP operation. 20 neonates and infant who were treated by TFARP operation have good bowel movement without laxative and symmetrical anal contraction after stimulation. Conclusion: TFARP is an operation produce less morbidity and is more effective procedures and superior procedures than that of ASARP operation and give aesthetic appearance of the perineum.

Background: Various treatment modalities have been applied for the management of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. However surgery remains the mainstay of treatment for IHPS of which Ramstedt's pyloromyotomy remains the surgical technique of choice. Objective: To see the outcome of surgical management of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis by double-Y pyloromyotomy. Methods: A prospective interventional study of 40 patients with IHPS was carried out over a period of 2 years from July 2008 to July 2010. The patients were divided into 2 equal groups of 20 patients in each. All patients selected for study were optimized preoperatively regarding to hydration, acid-base status and electrolytes imbalance. All surgeries were performed after obtaining informed consent. Standard preoperative preparation and postoperative feeding regimes were used. The patients were operated on an alternate basis, i.e., one patient by Double-Y Pyloromyotomy (DY) and the next by a Ramstedt's Pyloromyotomy (RP). Data on patient demographics, operative time, anaesthesia complications and postoperative complications including vomiting and weight gain were collected. Patients were followed up for a period of 3 months postoperatively. Statistical assessments were done by using t test. Results: From July 2008 through July 2010, forty patients were finally analyzed for this study. Any statistical differences were observed in patient population regarding age, sex, weight at presentation, symptoms and clinical condition including electrolytes imbalance and acid-base status were recorded. Significant differences were found in postoperative vomiting and weight gain. Data of post operative vomiting and weight gain in both groups were collected. Vomiting in double-Y(DY) pyloromyotomy group vs Ramstedt's pyloromyotomy (RP) group was significant (p= 0.0001). Weight gain after 1st 10 days DY vs RP is 298 ± 57.94 gm vs 193±19.8 gm (p=0.0014), after 1 month 676.67±149.84 gm vs 466.67 ± 127.71 gm (p=0.0001), after 2 months 741.33± 278.74 gm vs 490±80.62 gm (p=0.002) and after 3 months 582±36.01gm vs 453.33±51.64 gm (p=0.0001). No long-term complications were reported and no re-do pyloromyotomy was needed. Conclusion: The double-Y pyloromyotomy seems to be a better technique for the surgical management of IHPS. It may offer a better functional outcome in term of postoperative vomiting and weight gain. J Shaheed Suhrawardy Med Coll, 2011;3 (2): 38-40 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jssmc.v3i2.12076
