With which pathologies is Pentalogy of Cantrell associated? (important for omphalocele)
five defects of: heart, pericardium, diaphragm, sternum, and abdominal
How does the location and extend of Omphalocele and gastroschisis differ?
Omphalocele:
-base of the umbilical cord
-herniation of abdominal organs (such as the liver, intestines, and occasionally other organs) through a hole in abdominal muscles
-covered by a protective sac, amnioperitoneal membrane or peritoneum
Gastroschisis:
- typically to right of the umbilical cord insertion
- no protective sac
- hole in the abdominal wall, and the intestines (and sometimes other organs) protrude directly through this hole into the amniotic fluid
How are Omphalocele and gastroschisis associated with other diseases?
Omphalocele:
-often associated such as chromosomal abnormalities (like Down syndrome), heart defects, neural tube defects, and genitourinary anomalies
-higher rate of association
Gastroschisis:
- usually an isolated defect
- increased risk of intestinal complications d/t direct exposure to amniotic fluid
How is Omphalocele and gastroschisis typically diagnosed?
Prenatal screening:
a. Maternal blood tests:
-alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) screening, -> elevated levels -> may indicate it
-amnion sivida increased acetylcholinesterase
b. Ultrasound
Confirmation and detailed evaluation: If abnormality is suspected:
a. Detailed ultrasound
b. Fetal MRI: more precise images & additional information about the condition -> clearer picture of the abdominal organs and their positioning
c. Amniocentesis: may be recommended, to detect any genetic/ chromosomal abnormalities that may be associated with them
Defintion of Hirschsprung Disease
-proximal-to-distal aganglionic segment in the colon -> inability of internal anal sphincter to relax
-often extend up to sigmoid colon
-predominantly in males with familial predisposition
Symptoms of Hirschsprung Disease + PE findings
-Distended abdomen, vomiting, and absence of meconium passage within the first 24 hours of birth, Failure to Thrive, palpable fecal mass, squirt sign
Complications of Hirschsprung Disease
Possible bacterial spread due to stasis
Diagnosis of Hirschsprung Disease
-typically confirmed through a series of tests: barium enema (Kjolonography), anorectal manometry, & rectal biopsy
Treatment of Hirschsprung Disease
- aganglionic segment is surgically removed, and the colon is pulled down
- Swenson operation (removing aganglionic segment of the colon, bringing the normally decompressed bowel through the pelvic floor, and anastomosing the bowel to the anorectal verge)
Causes of delayed meconium
D - Drugs (Maternal drug use)
E - Endocrine disorders (Hypothyroidism)
L - Lung conditions (Meconium Aspiration Syndrome)
A - Anatomical abnormalities (Meconium Retention)
Y - Cystic Fibrosis (Thickened meconium)
E - Enteric nervous system disorders (Hirschsprung Disease)
D - Delayed passage due to other factors (e.g., transient immaturity)
Visualization: Picture yourself in a delayed airport, waiting for your flight (delayed passage). As you look around, you see people engaged in various activities:
A person nearby is taking drugs (representing maternal drug use).
An airport staff member is holding a sign for an endocrine conference (representing endocrine disorders).
A group of pilots is discussing the risks of meconium aspiration during flight (representing lung conditions).
You notice a large map showing different anatomical abnormalities.
An advertisement appears, showcasing a thickened meconium drink for a fictional CF brand (representing Cystic Fibrosis).
An information booth displays brochures about the enteric nervous system (representing Hirschsprung Disease).
Finally, an announcement is made about the delay being caused by various factors, including transient immaturity.
maternal drugs: Opioids, sedatives, antidepressants, Cocaine
Describe Symptoms, dx, tx of Appendicitis

-McBurney’s point
-Symptoms: loss of appetite, vomiting, and fever
-Dx: confirmed by ultrasound (USG), if necessary: computed tomography (CT)
-Tx: surgery, hospitalization, IV fluid support, and broad-spectrum antibiotics
When to think of Mesenteric Lymphadenitis instead of appendicitis?
Symptoms: abdominal pain, especially if history of upper respiratory tract infection
-consider if symptoms suggestive of urinary tract infection (UTI)

intussusception (invagination), Meckel’s diverticulitis, peritonitis, and urinary tract infection (UTI), Mesenteric Lymphadenitis, Pancreatitis, Cholecystitis, FMF, over torsiyonu, kabızlık demek gerekiyor
How to differentiate btw ddx of appendicitis?
differentiate via: Symptoms, medical history, laboratory tests (complete blood count), and imaging (X-ray, USG, CT) are used to differentiate these conditions
Shaken Baby Syndrome typical presentation
- Syndrome resulting from violent shaking of an infant or young child
- a single mother is living with a partner
- A 2-3-year-old child presents with a seizure lasting less than 20 minutes
-Physical examination shows no apparent findings
What are risk factors for Shaken baby syndrome?
- Prolonged crying episodes in the child
- being the first child
- young parents, step-parents, and other factors
- inconsistencies in child’s history may be present, indicating possible neglect or abuse
36 saattir mekonyum çıkışı olmayan bebek. Semptomlar ne olabilir, bulgular ne olabilir, neden kaynaklanır, ayırıcı tanılar, hangi testleri isterim?
Symptoms and Signs:
Abdominal distention or bloating
Abdominal pain or discomfort
Diarrhea or constipation
Vomiting
Poor appetite
Restlessness or excessive sleepiness
Irritability or fussiness
Poor weight gain
Possible Causes:
Meconium ileus: Obstruction of the small intestine preventing meconium from passing
Meconium aspiration syndrome: Inhalation of meconium during or before birth
Differential Diagnoses:
Hirschsprung’s disease: Congenital absence of nerve cells in the rectum and colon, causing a blockage
Intestinal atresia: Abnormal development of the intestine, leading to a blockage
Other gastrointestinal disorders causing obstruction or motility issues
Recommended Tests:
Abdominal X-ray or ultrasound to assess for signs of bowel obstruction
Rectal exam to check for the presence of meconium or any abnormalities in the anus or rectum
Additional tests may be required based on clinical findings and suspected underlying conditions

What are examination findings in Appendicitis?
Findings (Examination):
McBurney’s point tenderness: Tenderness and pain in the lower right side of the abdomen, between the belly button and the hip bone
Rebound tenderness: Increased pain when pressure is released suddenly from the lower right abdomen
Guarding or rigidity: Involuntary tensing of the abdominal muscles to protect the inflamed appendix
Rovsing’s sign: Pain in the lower right abdomen when pressure is applied to the left side of the abdomen
Psoas sign: Increased abdominal pain when the right hip is extended
Name examples of Congenital Urogenital Anomalies
Renal Agenesis: Absence of one or both kidneys at birth.
Renal Malposition: Abnormal placement or rotation of the kidneys within the abdomen.
Renal Ectopia: Abnormal location of one or both kidneys outside their normal position.
Horse-Shoe Kidney: Fusion of the lower poles of the kidneys, forming a horseshoe-shaped structure.
Polycystic Kidney: Development of multiple cysts in the kidneys, affecting their function.
Ureteropelvic Junction (UPJ) Obstruction: Narrowing or blockage at the junction between the renal pelvis and the ureter, causing urine flow obstruction.
Hydronephrosis: Accumulation of urine within the kidneys due to obstruction or reflux.
Vesicoureteral Reflux (VUR): Backflow of urine from the bladder into the ureters, which can reach the kidneys
What is VUR (vesicoureteral reflux)?
In Vesicoureteral Reflux, urine flows backward from the bladder into the ureters, and sometimes reaches the kidneys. This condition increases the risk of urinary tract infections and can lead to kidney damage
What is UPJ (uteropelvic junction)?
Ureteropelvic Junction (UPJ) Obstruction occurs when there is a narrowing or blockage at the connection between the renal pelvis and the ureter. This obstruction can cause urine to back up into the kidney, leading to kidney swelling (hydronephrosis) and impaired kidney function. Surgical intervention may be required to correct the obstruction
What is hypospadias?
a birth defect in boys where the opening of the urethra (the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body) is not located at the tip of the penis
Differentiate indirect, direct, and femoral hernia
Indirect inguinal hernias develop at the internal inguinal ring and are lateral to the inferior epigastric artery
Direct inguinal hernias occur through Hesselbach’s triangle formed by the inguinal ligament inferiorly, the inferior epigastric vessels laterally, and the rectus muscle medially
Femoral hernias develop in the empty space at the medial aspect of the femoral canal, inferior to the inguinal ligament
What are factors contributing to the develop. of indirect inguinal hernia?
Urogenital (undescended testis, exstrophy of bladder)
Connective tissue disorders
Increased peritoneal fluid
increased intra-abdominal pressure
cystic fibrosis
Ehlers-Dahnlos Syndrome (connective tissue disorder)
Hunter-Hurler Syndrome (mucopolysaccaridosis)
Are the following statement right:
1) Inguinal hernia most commonly presents during the first month of life
2) direct inguinal hernias are the result of failure of closure of the processus vaginalis
1) NO, the answer is: Inguinal hernia most commonly presents during the first year of life with a peak during the first few months
2) NO, the answer is: Indirect inguinal hernias are the result of failure of closure of the processus vaginalis
What is ddx to incarceration of hernia? Tx?
testis torsiyonu, hidrosel, kordon kisti, inguinal lenfadenopati veya inmemiş testis
-> en kısa sürede ama inkarsere hernide ya da strangüle herni varlığında acil inguinal girişim zorunludur
laparoscopic sx bir üstünlüğü yok -> cogu cerrah açık tekniği tercih ediyor
