Single-stage laparoscopic transanal pull-through modified Swenson procedure without leaving a muscular cuff for short- and long-type Hirschsprung disease: a comparative study
Purpose: The Soave procedure (SO) is performed most commonly for Hirschsprung disease. SO reduces the risk of injury to the pelvic structures; however, a residual aganglionic muscle cuff could interfere with bowel movement and lead to obstructive enterocolitis. The Swenson procedure is considered ideal in terms of peristalsis. Currently, laparoscopic surgery provides better visualization and facilitates precise dissection, possibly leading to feasible performance of the laparoscopic modified Swenson procedure (SW). We present our operative technique and the efficacy of the SW compared with that of SO. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the records of 16 and 27 patients who underwent SW and SO, respectively, between 2012 and 2017. Results: Operative time, blood loss, length of stay, and frequency of bowel movements showed no significant difference between the two groups. In the SW group, temporary dysuria occurred in one patient, postoperative enterocolitis in two, wound infection in one, and severe perianal excoriation in four, whereas in the SO group, obstructive symptoms occurred in three patients, small-bowel obstruction in one, and severe perianal excoriation in three. The complications and outcomes were comparable between both groups. Conclusion: Laparoscopic SW was safe and feasible for the short-term follow-up outcomes.ファイル公開:2019/10/01journal articl

-MLV or NB-MLV at a MOI of 5. CsA (5 μM) was added 2 h before transduction. Percentage of transduced cells was determined by FACS 48 h post-transduction. Fold restriction represents the ratio of untreated to IFN-β-treated cells to be transduced by the GFP-encoding retroviral vectors. Results are representative of two independent experiments with comparable results. A significant enhancement of retroviral restriction is defined as a ratio > 2. . OMK cells were stimulated with IFN-β and transduced 24 h later with VSV-pseudotyped GFP-expressing HIV-1, SIVmac or HIV-1 SCA vectors at a MOI of 1. The percentage of transduced cells was determined by FACS 48 h post-transduction. Fold restriction represents the ratio of untreated/IFN-β-treated cells to be transduced. As in panel A, a significant enhancement of retroviral restriction is defined as a ratio > 2.<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "Implication of TRIMalpha and TRIMCyp in interferon-induced anti-retroviral restriction activities"</p><p>http://www.retrovirology.com/content/5/1/59</p><p>Retrovirology 2008;5():59-59.</p><p>Published online 9 Jul 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2483995.</p><p></p

1, HA2 or A3), as indicated, and stimulated 24 h later with 1000 U/ml of IFN-β for 8 h. Total RNA was extracted and the levels of TRIM5α mRNA were determined by quantitative RT-PCR and normalized to GAPDH. The mean ± SD of duplicates is shown. . HeLa or Vero cells were transfected with siRNA targeting luciferase (Luc), TRIM5α(H1 or HA2) or TRIM5α(HA2 or A3), as indicated. The next day, cells were stimulated with 1000 U/ml of IFN-β for 8 h and challenged with a GFP-expressing N-MLV vector. The percentage of GFP-positive cells was determined by FACS 48 h post-transduction.
