Paediatric Thoracic Surgery
The latest volume in a series for specialists in pediatric surgery.
Surgery for Endocrinological Diseases and Malformations in Childhood
Endocrine conditions requiring surgical intervention in the pediatric age group are uncommon. When diagnosed, they are the source of great in terest and, often, considerable debate. This is understandable, since few centers and even fewer individual surgeons can draw on vast experience of this subject. The great divergence of opinion regarding management is also understandable in that pediatric endocrine lesions often differ considerably from their adult counterparts in histology, natural history and response to treatment. Pediatric endocrine lesions are also, as a rule, less frequently malignant. In addition to the great strides made in surgical and anesthetic technique and operative monito...
Operative Technique in Neonates and Infants
In conventional partial resection of parenchymatous organs significant bleeding is one of the main problems, especially in neonates and infants. The patients rapidly lose considerable amounts of their small blood volume. Laser light leads to photo thermal effects in tissue and causes coagulation, drying up, carbonization and evaporization, depending on the temperature. The neodymium Y AG laser emits nonvisible light in the near infrared with a wavelength of l. 0611m. This wavelength implies a relatively deep penetration into the tissue. This laser system, properly a coagulation laser, achieves its cutting effect by its high power density [9]. Because of thermal radiation in all directions, b...

First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
Pediatric Surgical Oncology
This volume is devoted to the overall management of solid tumors in children. Recent advances in the use of monoclonal antibodies for diagnosis and possible treatment are presented. New approaches to the complete care of the child and family as well as specific developments in the treatment of defined conditions are discussed. A particular contribution deals with congential dysplasia of soft tissue. The material analyzed for this topic was taken from a unique collections of clinical cases supplemented by detailed laboratory studies.
Constipation and Fecal Incontinence and Motility Disturbances of the Gut
This volume has been authored by internationally reputed experts from Japan and Europe and reflects the state of the art in the field of pediatric surgery. The first section on constipation and incontinence shows the fast pace of research in Japan on the subject. In particular, pathophysiological studies have led to improved diagnostic techniques and the clinical application of anorectal manometry. The second section discusses a topic that has long been of great interest: motility disturbances of the gut. New insights from improved diagnostic methods, pathophysiology and histology have induced new therapeutic trials and a better understanding of diseases such as Hirschsprung's disease and neuronal intestinal dysplasia. Despite the many recent improvements, much clinical and experimental work remains to be done to resolve these problems.
Long-gap Esophageal Atresia
The comparison of established methods in surgery is necessary in order to evaluate the advantages or disadvantages of each. We have therefore tried to include discussions of all the problems which arise in the treat ment of long-gap esophageal atresia. The long-term results of different types of colonic interposition, of different "stretching" procedures, and of simple staged surgery seemed especially worthy of discussion. It was also important to describe the role of complications caused by special pathology of the trachea in esophageal atresia and their management. Second, new problems continue to arise with regard to the prenatal diagnosis of malformations. These new aspects will continue...
