Circumcision by Plastibell Procedure (Ring Method)
Circumcision by Plastibell: After applying a numbing (local anaesthetic) cream to the base of the penis, your baby will be given a local anaesthetic injection through the numb skin so that there is no pain on the foreskin. A parent can be with your baby and soothe him. He will be awake and can have a feed immediately after the procedure.
Hydronephrosis : Diagnosis with Ultrasound
Many changes occur in the kidney before and after birth. Hydronephrosis indicates there is more urine filling up in the kidney than is expected. It implies that there is an imbalance between the amount of urine being formed and the urine transported down the ureter into the bladder and outside. As the kidney, ureter, bladder and urethra and importantly the joint between the adjacent structures grow, the degree of hydronephrosis may improve or worsen. This is the predominant reason why the doctor wants to repeat the ultrasound again and again till one and a half years of age.
DJ Stent removal Innovation – the Vellore Snare Technique
Background: DJ stents placed at the end of pediatric urological procedures require another cystoscopy under general anaesthesia for removal. The second author developed a reproducible technique for snaring the DJ stent using a feeding tube (6 or 8 FG) and a 3/0 prolene suture perurethrally . Having demonstrated the proof of concept, ethical clearance was obtained for an institutional randomised controlled trial.
Hydronephrosis Surgery in Paediatric Practice
Hydronephrosis Surgery: Hydronephrosis is a descriptive term used to indicate the presence of a distended pelvicalyceal system. It does not necessarily indicate a state of disease.
The Society of Fetal Urology was the first to introduce descriptors to help assess the significance of antenatal hydronephrosis by assigning grade 1 to indicate dilatation of the pelvis alone, grade 2 to indicate that the calyces are also dilated and grade 3 to indicate that the renal parenchyma is also thinned out.
