Laparoscopic orchidopexy in children.

abstract：:Ureteral obstruction secondary to extrinsic compression is uncommon. Extrinsic compression results from both benign and malignant conditions of the retroperitoneum. In certain patients, laparoscopic ureterolysis is a minimally invasive alternative to the open approach. To date, the largest numbers of patients have und...

abstract：:Myelomeningocele (MMC) is characterized by paraplegia and incontinence, often necessitating surgery. Current models of MMC in sheep and primates create a spinal defect long after anomalous neural tube closure ordinarily occurs. An ideal model of MMC would allow creation of the defect at the earliest age in a low-cost ...
