Number of patients diagnosed with Hirschsprungās disease in Latvia every year is small, therefore it is necessary to identify and describe frequent treatment complications, predisposing factors, because complications can affect the long term outcome of therapy, duration of hospitalization, the need for repeated surgical treatment, resulting in higher financial costs and reduced quality of life. Aim of study: To describe the complications caused by surgical treatment of Hirschsprungās disease, predisposing risk factors, reasons for repeated surgical treatment and quality of life of patients by reviewing articles published in the last 5 years. Hypotheses: Most frequent early postoperative complications are Hirschsprungās associated enterocolitis and mechanical intestinal obstruction. Postoperative complications are observed more frequently in patiens with long segment Hirschsprungās disease and total colonic aganglionosis than in patients with short segment disease. In patients with syndromic Hirschsprungās disease postoperative complications are observed more often than in patients without associated congenital anomalies. Some patients with functional bowel disorders may require repeated surgical treatment. Methods: Retrospective narrative literature review of internationally published articles, detailed review of articles published in the last 5 years on the complications of Hirschsprungās disease treatment. Articles were searched by keywords in PubMed, ClinicalKey, EBSCO host and other databases, journals - Journal of Pediatric Surgery, Pediatric Surgery International, Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition. Conclusions: Most common early postoperative complications are Hirschsprungās associated enterocolitis and anastomosis related, but these complications can be recurrent and develop later in life, most common late postoperative complications are functional bowel disorders. In patients with syndromic Hirschsprungās disease, postoperative complications are observed more frequently and are clinically more severe. Functional bowel disorders after treatment are more frequent and clinically more severe in children, their prevalence and severity decrease in the adult population both in patients with syndromic Hirschsprungās disease and in patients without associated anomalies. Postoperative complications are most often observed in patients with long segment Hirschsprung's disease, most rarely in patients with total colonic aganglionosis, but the most common complication in patients with total colonic aganglionosis is Hirschsprung's disease associated enterocolitis. There are conflicting opinions about the effect of definitive surgical treatment timing on the frequency of postoperative complications. Indications for repeated surgical treatment are mechanical intestinal obstruction, residual or acquired aganglionosis
From Viral Infection to Autoimmune Reaction: Exploring the Link between Human Herpesvirus 6 and Autoimmune Diseases
The complexity of autoimmunity initiation has been the subject of many studies. Both genetic and environmental factors are essential in autoimmunity development. Among others, environmental factors include infectious agents. HHV-6 is a ubiquitous human pathogen with a high global prevalence. It has several properties suggestive of its contribution to autoimmunity development. HHV-6 has a broad cell tropism, the ability to establish latency with subsequent reactivation and persistence, and a range of immunomodulation capabilities. Studies have implicated HHV-6 in a plethora of autoimmune diseasesāendocrine, neurological, connective tissue, and othersāwith some studies even proposing possible autoimmunity induction mechanisms. HHV-6 can be frequently found in autoimmunity-affected tissues and lesions; it has been found to infect autoimmune-pathology-relevant cells and influence immune responses and signaling. This review highlights some of the most well-known autoimmune conditions to which HHV-6 has been linked, like multiple sclerosis and autoimmune thyroiditis, and summarizes the data on HHV-6 involvement in autoimmunity development
