MICHEL Coquet: Influence Statistics

PURPOSE: The encouraging initial results of gastrocystoplasty led us to perform it for failed bladder exstrophy closure. We assess the functional outcome of the augmented bladder and evaluate complications related directly to use of the stomach in this specific group of children.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed gastrocystoplasty in 22 children an average of 9.5 years old with a small, poorly compliant bladder after staged reconstruction of bladder exstrophy failed. Followup ranged ...

We reviewed the cases of 95 children with duplex ureteroceles treated in this department over an 18-year period. There were 101 ureteroceles (6 bilateral). Diagnosis and treatment were analyzed. Special attention was paid to newborns screened in utero. We always strove to preserve functional renal tissue whenever possible. In keeping with this goal, three surgical techniques were used: (1) upper pole heminephrectomy; (2) ureterocele excision, bladder neck reconstruction, and ureter ...

There is currently widespread enthusiasm for abdominal wall reconstruction in patients with the prune belly syndrome. We have devised an operation that appears to offer some advantages over those proposed by Ehrlich and Randolph. The technique preserves the umbilicus, and thickens and strengthens the anterior abdominal wall. By narrowing the waist, it also produces a better cosmetic appearance. After full thickness resection of a varying amount of skin from the central abdomen, the ...

Cystoscopic incision for the treatment of ureterocele is a controversial procedure. With the advent of prenatal diagnosis of obstructive uropathy, neonates with asymptomatic ureteroceles are being encountered. We discuss several situations in which transurethral cystoscopic incision of the ureterocele may have merit.

According to major reports in the literature satisfactory cosmetic and genital results after correction of male epispadias have been achieved in only 50 per cent of the patients. Since 1976 we have been using the Duckett transverse island flap principle adapted to epispadiac anatomical conditions. The original technique was used in our initial 18 patients and the Asopa double flap technique was performed in the subsequent 14. Excellent results were obtained in both series. However, there ...

Micturition disorders were studied retrospectively in a series of 165 children over a period of 15 years. Among patients without lesions of the upper tract at the time of diagnosis (group A, n = 131), 18 (14%) had persistent nocturnal and diurnal enuresis: one urethral stenosis and six vesicoureteric reflux required surgery; three experienced persistent pollakiuria and enuresis. Among patients with upper urinary tract damage at the time of diagnosis (group B, n = 34), seven presented ...
