    Abstract Neuroblastoma is the most common malignant solid tumor handled by pediatric surgeons. It is well-known that neuroblastoma shows variable biological and clinical behaviors. In this review article, surgical strategy in neuroblastoma was described by risk stratification. Also, strategy of biopsy and clinical conditions that require special considerations such as neuroblastoma detected by mass screening, relapsed neuroblastoma, patients with stage MS and dumbbell type tumors was mentioned. As multimodal systemic treatments have been expanding, the role of surgery in neuroblastoma has become relatively less significant but requisite. We surgeons should decide therapeutic strategy based on the correct understanding of biology of neuroblastoma thinking of the better future of children.

    Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most chemoresistant cancers. An understanding of the molecular mechanism by which PDAC cells have a high chemoresistant potential is important for improvement of the poor prognosis of patients with PDAC. Here we show for the first time that disruption of heat shock protein 47 (HSP47) enhances the efficacy of the therapeutic agent gemcitabine for PDAC cells and that the efficacy is suppressed by reconstituting HSP47 expression. HSP47 interacts with calreticulin (CALR) and the unfolded protein response transducer IRE1α in PDAC cells. Ablation of HSP47 promotes both the interaction of CALR with sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca

    Abstract Background: Indocyanine green fluorescence angiography, a validated noninvasive imaging technique, is used to assess tissue vascularization. Here, we report three infant patients who underwent intraoperative indocyanine green fluorescence angiography and suffered from postoperative complications caused by the lack of weak fluorescent intestinal resection and assessed residual intestinal perfusion.
    Case presentation: We observed the clinical characteristics and operative findings of patients treated from January 2022 to December 2022. Indocyanine green (0.5 mg/kg) was intravenously injected. The first patient was a 29-day-old girl with surgical necrotizing enterocolitis who underwent intraoperative indocyanine green fluorescence angiography at the first- and second-look operations. The proximal jejunum was difficult to diagnose to detect blood flow during the second-look operation. The second patient was a 32-day-old boy with surgical necrotizing enterocolitis. A part of the antimesenteric mucosa of the patient that exhibited weak fluorescence was preserved; however, it formed postoperative hematomas. The third patient was a 30-day-old boy with midgut volvulus. Weak fluorescence in the intestinal wall was observed 5 cm of the small intestine from the ileocecal valve was preserved, but it formed a stricture, and the patient underwent ileocecal resection after 30 days.
    Conclusions: Weak fluorescence in the intestine in infants by performing indocyanine green fluorescence angiography is associated with a high risk of non-recovering ischemic lesions and postoperative complications.

    Abstract Background: Congenital portosystemic shunt (CPSS) is a rare malformation that leads to hyperammonemia, hypermanganesemia, and various symptoms. CPSSs are divided into intrahepatic and extrahepatic shunts. In patients with persistent CPSS including an intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (IPSS), early intervention to occlude the shunt reverses the associated complications.
    Case presentation: The patient was a 1-year-and-7-month-old girl. She presented with hypergalactosemia and elevation of blood ammonia level (75 μg/dL) and total bile acid levels (68.2 μmol/L) during the neonatal period. Two IPSSs were detected using ultrasound and enhanced computerized tomography. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 1 year and 3 months of age showed abnormally high signal intensity in the pallidum of her brain. Spontaneous closure was not observed. We performed a right hepatectomy at 1 year and 7 months of age. The portal vein pressure was 16 mmHg after temporary occlusion of the right portal vein. Blood ammonia and serum manganese levels decreased immediately after the operation. The abnormal signal on brain MRI disappeared. She had a favorable course with no sign of recurrence of IPSS 5 years postoperatively.
    Conclusion: Liver resection for an IPSS to control the symptoms of a portosystemic shunt is reasonable in a child for whom interventional radiological treatment is not indicated.

    Abstract Breast cancer (BC) is an aggressive cancer that is a leading cause of cancer-associated death in women worldwide. Although increased expression of heat shock protein 47 (HSP47), a collagen-specific chaperone, is associated with the high malignancy of BC, its role in BC remains largely unclear. Here we show that a small population of high-invasive BC cells expresses HSP47 and that HSP47-positive high-invasive BC cells have a high metastatic potential that is completely abolished by disruption of HSP47. HSP47 interacts with non-muscle myosin IIA (NMIIA) via the unfolded protein response transducer IRE1α, resulting in enhancement of the metastatic potential of high-invasive BC cells by augmenting the contractile force of actin filaments. Ablation of NMIIA abrogates the metastatic potential of HSP47-positive high-invasive BC cells. We further show that forced expression of NMIIA confers a high metastatic potential on low-invasive BC cells in which HSP47 but not NMIIA is expressed. Overall, our study indicates that HSP47 acts as a stimulator for metastasis of BC cells and suggest that HSP47 may be a candidate for a therapeutic target against BC.

    Abstract Objectives There is limited evidence on the infants' postoperative complications who have undergone surgical repair of duodenal atresia and stenosis. This study aimed to identify the factors associated with poor surgical outcomes after the initial repair. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the data of 82 patients who underwent surgery for duodenal atresia and stenosis between January 1994 and December 2013 at our institution. Gestational age, birth weight, fetal growth, and other associated anomalies were recorded. Multivariate regression analyses were used to identify the factors associated with surgical outcomes, including postoperative complications and time to full oral intake. Results The median gestational age was 37.6 weeks, with 30 (37%) preterm (<37 weeks) and 11 (13%) early preterm (<34 weeks) infants. The median birth weight was 2531 g, with 27 (33%) patients < 2000 g and 10 (12%) patients < 1500 g. Postoperative surgical complications were identified in 18 (22%) cases, of which 12 (15%) required additional operations. Multivariate regression analysis revealed that a combination of very low birth weight (<1500 g) and early preterm was significantly associated with both surgical and non-surgical postoperative complications (p = 0.0028 and 0.021, respectively) and a prolonged time to full oral intake postoperatively (p = 0.013). Conclusion Very low birth weight and early preterm were significantly associated with postoperative complications and a prolonged time to full oral intake.
