Abstract

Abstract: Foreign body (FB) ingestion is a common problem especially in children below the age of 5 years. Due to the extensive use of batteries as power supply in electronic gadgets, cases of button battery ingestion have become more common. If a button battery was found in the stomach of a child under the age of five, it should be assessed for esophageal injury and removed endoscopically, if at all possible, within 24 to 48 hours. We reported a 3-year-old boy who swallowed a foreign body three hours before being admitted to the hospital. Initially the patient was playing with robot toys that used batteries, then a battery of the robots was accidently swallowed. The patient had no symptoms and physical examinations showed no abnormalities. Abdominal X-ray examination revealed a foreign body located in the stomach. The patient underwent endoscopic foreign body removal but no foreign body was found until the second part of duodenum. Therefore, an exploratory laparotomy was performed, and the foreign body, a button battery, was removed from the ileum. In conclusion, since endoscopic foreign body removal failed to remove the foreign body in this patient, an exploratory laparotomy was performed and through antimesenterial ileotomy, the foreign body, a button battery, was successfully removed.

Abstract

Abstract: Foreign body (FB) ingestion is one of the most complex and serious emergency conditions for diagnosis that often occurs in children. Most ingested FBs, intentionally or unintentionally, pass through the gastrointestinal tract without complications, and only a small proportion require surgical intervention inter alia colonoscopy. However, if the patient complains of abdominal pain, complications may occur, especially perforation with peritonitis, and in this case a laparotomy is needed. We reported a case of a 13-year-old girl with the chief complaint of needle ingestion two weeks ago. Patient complained of abdominal pain and was unable to defecate. Plain abdominal radiographs showed needle-shaped metal density in the lower intestinal; therefore, the patient was referred to Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital for further treatment. An endoscopy was initially performed but no foreign body was found because they might had been in the intestine. Colonoscopy revealed a foreign body in the proximal ascending colon, transverse position. Extraction of the foreign body, along with pulling the scope and evaluating the transverse, descending, sigmoid and rectum colon which were within normal limits was carried out. Monitoring after removal of the foreign body for two days found no complaints of abdominal pain and bowel movements were normal, therefore, the patient was discharged from the hospital. In conclusion, since a sharp foreign body (a needle) was still in the proximal ascending colon, a colonoscopy was performed with successful removal of the needle.

Abstract

Abstract: Gastroschisis is a congenital disorder in which the internal abdominal viscera protrudes through a defect in the anterior abdominal wall. Survival rates exceed 96% in high-income countries, but in low-income countries, mortality rates can reach >90%. This study aimed to determine the factors that influenced the outcome of gastroschisis treatment. This was an analytical study using SPSS ver. 22.0. The results obtained 18 infants with gastroschisis who met the criteria. All of the babies later developed sepsis and died. Characteristics of the sample were as follows: most gastroschisis diagnosis was confirmed after birth (83%), most cases recieved antenatal care from the midwife only (83%), delivery at the primary health facility (78%), baby was referred to the hospital without nasogastric tube and plastic wrap (50%)  and most babies had low risk (GPS≤1) (61%). Influencing significant factors found were the medical procedures performed before reffering to the length of hospital stay (p=0.007), length of parenteral nutrition (p=0.009), and duration to enteral feeding (p=0.005). In conlusion, medical procedures performed before reffering influence the outcome of gastroschisis treatment.

Angka survival melebihi 96% di negara dengan pendapatan tinggi, namun di negara berpendapatan rendah, angka mortalitas dapat mencapai >90%. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi luaran penanganan gastroschisis. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analitik dengan alat analisis SPSS ver. 22.0. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan 18 bayi dengan gastroschisis yang memenuhi kriteria. Setelah dilakukan operasi, seluruh bayi dirawat kemudian mengalami sepsis dan meninggal. Karakteristik sampel ialah diagnosis gastroschisis baru ditegakkan saat lahir (83%), ibu bayi memeriksakan kehamilannya pada bidan (83%), ibu melahirkan di faskes primer (78%), bayi dirujuk ke rumah sakit tanpa pemasangan NGT dan penutupan usus (50%), dan sebagian besar beresiko rendah (skor GPS ≤1) (61%). Faktor yang bermakna memengaruhi luaran penanganan gastroschisis ialah tindakan medis yang belum dilakukan sebelum merujuk terhadap lama rawatan rumah sakit (p=0,007), lama nutrisi parenteral (p=0,009), dan durasi hingga enteral feeding (p=0,005). Sinpulan penelitian ini ialah tindakan medis yang belum dilakukan sebelum merujuk merupakan faktor yang berpengaruh pada luaran penanganan bayi dengan gastroschisis.
