Self-inserted urethrovesical foreign bodies are rare in children. A 7-year-old boy inserted a hairpin into the urethra seven days before admission, a diagnosis that was made on the basis of the appearance of blood in the urine, palpation of the base of the penis and two directional X-ray imaging. Cystourethroscopy and suprapubic cystotomy were used to remove the foreign body.The presentation of urethrovesical foreign bodies can vary widely, as can the type of object inserted. Definitive treatment is usually the endoscopic removal, however occasionally surgical intervention may be required. Our novel approach enabled less traumatic removal of the hairpin

Trauma is the leading cause of pediatric mortality and abdominal injury is a significant contributor to morbidity. Abdominal trauma in the population of injured children, is the third leading cause of death in this population, after head and thoracic injuries. It is the most common cause of death owing to unrecognized injury. They most often occur in traffic accidents, games and sports. The clinical presentation depends on the severity of the injury, the injured organ and the associated injuries. Mesenteric injury from blunt abdominal trauma is uncommon and can be difficult to diagnose. It is known that seatbelt trauma from motor vehicle accidents is the most common mechanism of mesenteric injury and that the mesentery of the small bowel is injured more frequently than that of the colon. We present an unusual case, a seven-year-old boy who was injured while skiing. The patient was in a state of hemorrhagic shock and underwent emergency surgery after an urgent diagnosis. During the operation, the leading trauma and the reason for the hemorrhagic shock were found to be a mesenteric injury, and bleeding from the branches of the superior mesenteric artery. Early transport, monitoring and diagnostics significantly contribute to reducing morbidity and mortality. The standard in surgery is non-operative treatment of injured parenchymal organs. A multidisciplinary approach that includes doctors of various specialties (pediatric surgeons, pediatricians, neurosurgeons, anesthesiologists and radiologists) who contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of injured children through diagnostic and therapeutic procedures has a key role. At the end, the decision regarding surgical treatment is responsibility of pediatric surgeon.

A 10 years old boy, was sent from regional hospital. His symptoms started the day before he was hospitalized and represented as gastrointestinal bleeding, lower abdominal pain and four times vomiting, without fever. Ultrasound and X-ray of the abdomen were normal. Blood fi ndings showed: RBC 3,19, hemoglobin 0,95, hematocrit 0,27. During a physical examination abdomen was palpatory soft, with no presence of the pain. Digital rectal examination showed blood. A scintigraphy pathologic scan showed a focal lesion of the right hemi abdomen consistent with the Meckel’s diverticulum.Patient was treated byLaparoscopic-Assisted Transumbilical Extracorporeal Resection of the Meckel’s Diverticulum. Case Report

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the association between the number of nosocomial infections prior to necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) diagnosis as well as to evaluated how it contributed to development of NEC in premature infants. Material and methods: The study included 51 preterm infants diagnosed with NEC and 71 preterm infants without NEC hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of Clinical Center University of Sarajevo. We evaluated the correlation of the number of nosocomial infections prior to NEC diagnosis with the development of NEC. Results: There was a statistically significant association of the number of nosocomial infections prior NEC diagnosis with the development of NEC (odds ratio, 3.32; 95% confidence interval, 1.09-10.01). Conclusion: Increased number of nosocomial infections prior to NEC diagnosis is associated with increased risk of necrotizing enterocolitis.
