Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical site infection (SSI) is a major burden on patients and health systems. This study assessed the cost-effectiveness of routine change of sterile gloves and instruments before abdominal wall closure to prevent SSI. METHODS A decision-analytic model was built to estimate average costs and outcomes of changing gloves and instruments before abdominal wall closure compared with current practice. Clinical data were obtained from the ChEETAh trial, a multicentre, cluster-randomised trial in seven low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs), and costs were obtained from a study (KIWI) that assessed costs associated with SSIs in LMICs. Outcomes were measured as the percentage of surgeries resulting in SSIs. Costs were measured from a health-care provider perspective and were reported in 2021 US$. The economic analysis used a partially split single-country costing approach, with pooled outcomes data from all seven countries in the ChEETAh trial, and data for resource use and unit costs from India (KIWI); secondary analyses used resource use and costs from Mexico and Ghana (KIWI). FINDINGS In the base case, the average cost of the intervention was $259∙92 compared with $261∙10 for current practice (cost difference -$1∙18, 95% CI -4∙08 to 1∙33). In the intervention group, an estimated 17∙6% of patients had an SSI compared with 19∙7% of patients in the current practice group (absolute risk reduction 2∙10%, 95% CI 2∙07-2∙84). At all cost-effectiveness thresholds assumed ($0 to $14 000), the intervention had a higher likelihood of being cost-effective compared with current practice, indicating that the intervention was cost-effective. Similar results were obtained when the analysis using data from India was repeated using resource use and unit cost data from Mexico and Ghana. INTERPRETATION Routine sterile glove and instrument change before abdominal wall closure is effective and the costs are similar to those for current practice. Routine change of gloves and instruments before abdominal wall closure should be rolled out in LMICs.

Abstract
Ovarian abscesses are usually seen in females of reproductive age group. They may occur secondary to urinary tract infections, pelvic inflammatory diseases, or gastrointestinal infections. They are uncommon in premenarchal females. They can be either managed conservatively with antibiotics and analgesics or may require surgery. In this case report, we present the case of a 6-year-old female who presented to us with an acute abdomen, which was diagnosed as a case of ovarian abscess and improved on exploration and drainage.

Abstract
Background Intestinal malrotation is a congenital anomaly resulting from abnormal or incomplete rotation and fixation of the midgut during embryogenesis. It commonly presents in the neonatal period (75%) with sudden onset bilious vomiting and rarely beyond infancy (<10%). Aim The aim of the study was to highlight the clinical features, radiological findings, and treatment outcomes of patients with malrotation presenting beyond infancy. Materials and Methods Eleven consecutive cases of delayed presentation of malrotation presented over a period of 5 years (2017-2021). Data were analyzed retrospectively. Results Out of the 11 patients, four were female and seven were male. The age of patients ranged from 14 months to 18 years. Patients beyond infancy present usually with diffuse pain abdomen compared to neonates which present with sudden onset bilious vomiting and therefore difficult to diagnose. Five patients had associated abnormalities such as intussusception or nutcracker syndrome or mesenteric cyst or jejunal stricture or mesenteric lymphadenopathy along with malrotation. Patients underwent ultrasonography, upper gastrointestinal contrast study, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography abdomen to confirm the diagnosis. All patients underwent the Ladd procedure with four requiring resection anastomosis and one requiring excision of the mesenteric cyst. Eight out of eleven patients had favorable outcomes, two develop adhesive intestinal obstruction and required re-exploration, and one had persistent complaints of hematochezia. Conclusion Malrotation beyond infancy is a rare diagnosis. Malrotation in older children is usually not suspected because of the wide range of symptoms. A high index of suspicion on ultrasound or computed tomography is required to demonstrate the reversal of superior mesenteric artery and superior mesenteric vein position and related conditions. Early intervention and treatment can prevent catastrophic events such as intestinal volvulus and intestinal ischemia in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cluster randomised controlled trials (cRCT) present challenges regarding risks of bias and chance imbalances by arm. This paper reports strategies to minimise and monitor biases and imbalances in the ChEETAh cRCT. METHODS ChEETAh was an international cRCT (hospitals as clusters) evaluating whether changing sterile gloves and instruments prior to abdominal wound closure reduces surgical site infection at 30 days postoperative. ChEETAh planned to recruit 12,800 consecutive patients from 64 hospitals in seven low-middle income countries. Eight strategies to minimise and monitor bias were pre-specified: (1) minimum of 4 hospitals per country; (2) pre-randomisation identification of units of exposure (operating theatres, lists, teams or sessions) within clusters; (3) minimisation of randomisation by country and hospital type; (4) site training delivered after randomisation; (5) dedicated 'warm-up week' to train teams; (6) trial specific sticker and patient register to monitor consecutive patient identification; (7) monitoring characteristics of patients and units of exposure; and (8) low-burden outcome-assessment. RESULTS This analysis includes 10,686 patients from 70 clusters. The results aligned to the eight strategies were (1) 6 out of 7 countries included ≥ 4 hospitals; (2) 87.1% (61/70) of hospitals maintained their planned operating theatres (82% [27/33] and 92% [34/37] in the intervention and control arms); (3) minimisation maintained balance of key factors in both arms; (4) post-randomisation training was conducted for all hospitals; (5) the 'warm-up week' was conducted at all sites, and feedback used to refine processes; (6) the sticker and trial register were maintained, with an overall inclusion of 98.1% (10,686/10,894) of eligible patients; (7) monitoring allowed swift identification of problems in patient inclusion and key patient characteristics were reported: malignancy (20.3% intervention vs 12.6% control), midline incisions (68.4% vs 58.9%) and elective surgery (52.4% vs 42.6%); and (8) 0.4% (41/9187) of patients refused consent for outcome assessment. CONCLUSION cRCTs in surgery have several potential sources of bias that include varying units of exposure and the need for consecutive inclusion of all eligible patients across complex settings. We report a system that monitored and minimised the risks of bias and imbalances by arm, with important lessons for future cRCTs within hospitals.

Clinico-Microbiological Profile and Clinical Predictor of Urinary Tract Infection in Children: A Single-Center Study From Himalayan Foothills. Cureus 2023; 15:e33289.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Urinary tract infection (UTI) in children is one of the commonest bacterial infections seen in the pediatric population. Clinical presentation ranges from fever with or without focus and isolation of microbiological agents streamline the treatment. Moreover, local/regional microbial profiles are helpful in antibiotic selection, we conducted a study to assess the prevalence of urine culture positivity in a suspected case of UTI. In addition, antibiotic susceptibility patterns and ultrasonography (USG) finding in culture-positive patients were also studied. METHODS AND MATERIALS It is a prospective observational study comprising symptomatic children aged one month to 18 years presenting to the outpatient department (OPD), inpatient department (IPD), and the emergency department of Pediatrics with UTI during the period of September 2019 to September 2020. The recorded variables were demographic, clinical presentation, anthropometry, physical examination, blood biochemistry, and outcome. Urine samples were collected and processed as per standard protocols. USG was done for all culture-positive children. Data were presented as frequency, mean (SD) and parametric and non-parametric data were analyzed by Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney U Test, Chi-Squared Test, or Fisher's Exact Test. Results: Of the total 354 children, 202 (57.1%) were male and the prevalence of UTI was 64 (18.1%). E. coli (70.3%) was the commonest isolated organism followed by Klebsiella spp (15.6%) and Pseudomonas spp (7%) respectively. The mean (SD) age (months) of presentation of symptoms was significantly lower in culture-positive children as compared to [ 83.49 (58.96) vs 110.10 (58.60); p=0.001] culture-negative children. Fever (96.6%) followed by dysuria (20.1%) were the most common symptoms presented for UTI however dysuria (p=0.003), pus cells (p<0.0001), and RBCs (p=0.002) were significantly present in culture positive children. This study shows increased resistance to third generation of cephalosporins. This study revealed significant differences among various groups (organism growth in positive culture) and the Antibiotic susceptibility test (AST) with a p-value of <0.001. Conclusion: The prevalence of culture-positive UTI was similar to the reported literature and the presence of fever, dysuria, pus cells, and RBC in urine were commonly observed in the lower age group. Amikacin can be used in suspected UTIs with cephalosporin as empirical antibiotics in the Himalayan Foothills region.

Abstract
Dog bite injuries are common in children. They are a major cause of morbidity and mortality involving commonly the extremities, head, and neck. Injuries to the torso represent only 10% of injuries. Visceral injury by a dog bite in children is a rare clinical scenario with very few cases reported. We present a 2-year-old female child who suffered a severe dog bite injury causing colonic perforation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical site infection (SSI) remains the most common complication of surgery around the world. WHO does not make recommendations for changing gloves and instruments before wound closure owing to a lack of evidence. This study aimed to test whether a routine change of gloves and instruments before wound closure reduced abdominal SSI. METHODS ChEETAh was a multicentre, cluster randomised trial in seven low-income and middle-income countries (Benin, Ghana, India, Mexico, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa). Any hospitals (clusters) doing abdominal surgery in participating countries were eligible. Clusters were randomly assigned to current practice (42) versus intervention (39; routine change of gloves and instruments before wound closure for the whole scrub team). Consecutive adults and children undergoing emergency or elective abdominal surgery (excluding caesarean section) for a clean-contaminated, contaminated, or dirty operation within each cluster were identified and included. It was not possible to mask the site investigators, nor the outcome assessors, but patients were masked to the treatment allocation. The primary outcome was SSI within 30 days after surgery (participant-level), assessed by US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria and on the basis of the intention-to-treat principle. The trial has 90% power to detect a minimum reduction in the primary outcome from 16% to 12%, requiring 12 800 participants from at least 64 clusters. The trial was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03700749. FINDINGS Between June 24, 2020 and March 31, 2022, 81 clusters were randomly assigned, which included a total of 13 301 consecutive patients (7157 to current practice and 6144 to intervention group). Overall, 11 825 (88·9%) of 13 301 patients were adults, 6125 (46·0%) of 13 301 underwent elective surgery, and 8086 (60·8%) of 13 301 underwent surgery that was clean-contaminated or 5215 (39·2%) of 13 301 underwent surgery that was contaminated-dirty. Glove and instrument change took place in 58 (0·8%) of 7157 patients in the current practice group and 6044 (98·3%) of 6144 patients in the intervention group. The SSI rate was 1280 (18·9%) of 6768 in the current practice group versus 931 (16·0%) of 5789 in the intervention group (adjusted risk ratio: 0·87, 95% CI 0·79-0·95; p=0·0032). There was no evidence to suggest heterogeneity of effect across any of the prespecified subgroup analyses. We did not anticipate or collect any specific data on serious adverse events. INTERPRETATION This trial showed a robust benefit to routinely changing gloves and instruments before abdominal wound closure. We suggest that it should be widely implemented into surgical practice around the world.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To assess the various anatomical patterns of the hypospadias penis, anatomical and histological study of the penile tissues, planes, and vascular patterns, and imagings such as ultrasound of penis, elastography, and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of penis have been described in the literature. All these have been done to attempt the identification of anatomical variations that may influence surgical outcomes. There are very limited MRI studies of hypospadias penis to look for the pristine anatomy. OBJECTIVE The objective was to identify anatomical variations in hypospadias penis such as the penile tissues and planes and the vascularity using MRI. MATERIAL AND METHODS The total number of patients enrolled was 24 from January 2019 to July 2020. This included all the cases of hypospadias at any location aged ≥5 years. MRI penis was done using 3T (3 Tesla) MRI scanner (GE Healthcare signa 3T Scanner machine) with 3 mm body coil slice thickness and the surface coil of 3 inches. Non-contrast images were taken using fast spin-echo sequences in sagittal, coronal, and transverse planes. The findings analyzed were: presence and distribution of penile tissue and fascial structures, urethral plate thickness, and penile vasculature. RESULTS The mean age was 7.62 ± 2.14 years. The types of hypospadias included were Coronal 1/24 (4.2%), Subcoronal 14/24 (58.3%), Distal penile 3/24 (12.5%), Midpenile 5/24 (20.8%) and Penoscrotal 1/24 (4.2%) (Summary Table 1). The mean urethral plate thickness was 1.33 ± 0.38 mm. The penile soft tissues were well visualized along with their fascial planes. The majority of patients (91.7%, 22/24) had Superficial Dartos vessels with both branches. Bulbourethral vessel was present in 18 (75.0%) cases but could not be visualized in the rest. Ventral and Lateral Dartos vessels were seen in 20 (83.3%) cases. Perforators distal to meatus were visualized in 21 (87.5%) cases and not visualized in 3 (1 each in Penoscrotal, Midpenile, and Coronal hypospadias). Collaterals at corona sulcus were visualized in 23 (95.8%) cases, at paraurethral spongiosum in 15 (62.5%) cases, and at dorsum in 22 (91.7%) cases. CONCLUSION 3T MRI gives precise images in hypospadias with relation to the tissue and fascial planes of the penis. The vascular pattern visualization in these patients may be confirmed by the availability of a dedicated penile coil which will help to improve the resolution of the penile structures. Analyzing the penile vascular pattern and correlating it with surgical outcomes may aid the surgeon's knowledge of hypospadias, develop new surgical techniques and hence reduce complications.

Abstract
Facial teratomas are uncommon tumours in children that distort the face and may be associated with functional problems. They are less common than cervical teratomas though they are often grouped together and considered an emergency due to their tendency to cause respiratory compromise. They tend to be large and cause cosmetic issues; hence usually noticed early and medical help sought promptly by parents. The close proximity of facial teratomas to structures like eyes, parotid gland, facial nerve, vessels and brain makes them challenging and requires a patient and meticulous exploration during surgery. We present a case of an 11 month old girl with left sided temporal teratoma. Well planning of the incision and complete excision of the tumour with careful sparing of the facial nerves and parotid gland yielded good result.

Abstract
Prune belly syndrome is an extremely rare congenital condition occurring predominantly in males. This triad syndrome comprises of partial or complete deficient abdominal wall muscles, undescended testes and dilated urinary collecting system. We present the case of a 2-year-old male patient, who presented with classic prune belly syndrome, operated with modification in classical Monfort technique of abdominoplasty. The basis of this approach was to save and use the supraumbilical abdominal wall which has better tensile strength. The infraumbilical skin was mostly discarded. The outcome was better in terms of cosmetic appearance as the scar was limited to the lower abdomen and better anterior abdominal wall strength.

Abstract
Peritoneal cysts are not uncommon in children - mesenteric/omental cysts being the commoner entity. Peritoneal cysts in the falciform ligament are a very rare entity reported in the literature. We present a 5-year-old boy who presented with pain upper central abdomen and few episodes of non-bilious vomiting for 1 year. He was stable on examination, with abdominal examination revealing the fullness of the abdomen with palpable generalised cystic mass which was mobile transversely. Ultrasound and contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen revealed intra-peritoneal cystic lesion measuring 13 cm × 11.5 cm × 9 cm with septations seen in the abdominal cavity from the epigastric region to the infraumbilical region (D11-L5 level). Laparoscopy showed a large cyst of the abdomen arising from the anterior abdominal wall, along the falciform ligament. The dark yellow fluid was aspirated and the cyst was excised leaving a part which was adherent to the anterior wall. Histopathology revealed cuboidal epithelium lined by the fibrous wall. The patient is doing well at 6 months follow-up. Falciform ligament cysts are very rare and laparoscopy can confirm the diagnosis as well as help in excision of the cyst with good results.

Abstract
Wooden foreign body (WFB) injuries in children are common. They may report with acute presentation or be delayed as retained foreign body giving rise to complications. Cases with superficial skin penetration by these foreign bodies and acute presentation may be convenient to diagnose and remove. However, localising deeply impacted and chronically retained WFB is challenging, as they are usually not radiopaque and have a tendency to move deeper into the surrounding soft tissues with time. Foreign body retained for prolonged duration may present with either cellulitis, deep tissue infections, sinus, restriction of joint movements, necrotising fasciitis, osteomyelitis or tumour-like mass. We present an 8-year-old boy with discharging sinuses in the right iliac fossa and medial aspect of the right upper thigh, due to an impacted WFB for 3 months. Prompt radiological imaging and surgical removal helped him recover completely.

Abstract
Hepatoblastoma (HB), a primary liver tumor of childhood, is often accompanied by raised levels of alpha-fetoprotein (α-FP). Rarely, the beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) levels may also be elevated, which can cause peripheral precocious puberty (PPP). We report a case of HB with precocious puberty wherein hormonal assays showed an increase in α-FP, β-hCG, and testosterone levels, and suppression of follicle-stimulating and luteinizing hormone levels. After chemotherapy and surgery, α-FP, β-hCG, and testosterone levels normalized, and the signs of virilization did not progress further. New therapeutic approaches have made a previously reported grim prognosis of virilizing HB, more favorable now. In the assessment of PPP, the possibility of a tumoral source for the hormones should also be considered.

Abstract
The occurrence of multiple neural tube defects in a single patient is rare; the cases reported in the past are mostly of thoracic and lumbosacral region. Double occipital encephaloceles are rare; only four cases have been reported till date. Here we report a case of double encephalocele—one in the vertex and the other in the occiput, and a literature study on similar reports.

Abstract
The earliest clinical sign of esophageal atresia (EA) is excessive salivation and the diagnosis is made by failure to pass an infant feeding tube (IFT) into the stomach. The diagnostic errors may occur due to presence of an unusually long upper pouch, when the IFT seems to pass into the stomach. We describe one such case and review the relevant literature.
