Born 3 days of baby girl stomach rupture

In early June, Ms. Liu, Jingzhou, Hubei, had a premature birth and gave birth to a baby girl with only 31 weeks of fetal age in the local hospital, weighing only 1600 grams. On the third day after birth, the baby had a sudden condition, and his stomach swelled obviously after breastfeeding. The abdominal X -sized examination found that the gastric rupture was caused by the development defect of the congenital gastric wall muscle layer. A large amount of gases, acid digestive fluids and bacteria in the stomach flow into the abdominal cavity by breaking the mouth, which may cause severe abdominal infection, and then develop into purulent venomia and infectious shock. The disease is very dangerous. If it is not treated in time, the baby is likely to die. This made the parents and medical staff mention their throats.

In order to save their children, parents were transferred to Wuhan for treatment. Local doctors escorted, and they arrived at Wuhan Children's Hospital at 00:37 on the 4th through the Hubei Pediatric Medical Alliance. They were sent to neonatal surgery through the green channel. The attending physician Wang Yan recalled that at first glance of the child, the small belly was high, the belly became red, the breathing was rapid, and the mental response was poor. He had to surgery as soon as possible.

Multi -disciplinary together to rescue children's life

As soon as the surgical plan was determined, the baby was pushed into the operating room, and the neonatal surgeon Show Bidong and Dr. Wang Yan were surgery.

During the surgery, the baby's stomach wall was bent to the cardia with a 4 cm long rupture gap. Because the baby is a premature infant, the stomach is small, the stomach wall is thin, and the abdominal organs are concentrated, it is easy to hurt the surrounding organs, which is very difficult to repair. The doctor carefully cleaned up the necrotic tissue and repaired the perforation and falling part. After two hours of surgery, the baby's life was kept.

After surgery, the baby transferred to the neonatal surgery's intensive care unit. It has now been out of danger, and various indicators have improved significantly, and gastrointestinal function has gradually recovered.

"This kind of newborn stomach rupture is very rare. It is congenital development defects. It is related to the baby’s premature birth and stomach wall development defects. It is difficult to prevent it. Newborn gastric perforation is often urgent, and sudden abdominal symptoms occur. Although they are rare, the mortality rate is as high as 50%-80%. Early treatment is very important for the survival rate of children.
