The clinical sign of children’s kidney and urinary tract petrification diseases and the result of eswl
Background: A substance exchange disorder where stones form in the kidney or urinary tract with a tendency toward inheritance is called urinary tract petrification disease. In many countries throughout the world, the incidence of urinary tract petrification disease is one to fifteen percent. Urinary tract permeability disease affects 7% of people under the age of 17. Due to the unique nature of the habitat, the incidence of urinary tract petrification disease is higher in India, Thailand, Scandinavian countries, and the Caucasian, Ural, Siberia, and Equator areas. However, the incidence of urinary tract petrification disease spread is two to three percent for children, but the reoccurance risk is 6.5–54 percent. In our country’s case, J. Horloo’s 1993 research indicates that 4.1 to 4.7 percent of kidney and urinary tract patients have urinary tract disease. During urinary tract disease, the common symptoms are abdominal pain, macro- and microhematuria, and kidney and renal bacterial infection. But in younger children, those symptoms are quite grim. In the last 15 years, mongolian’s urine’s oxalate stone’s volume increased by 5 times and mixed stones decreased by 2.5 times. The research of G. Erdenetsetseg’s 1990–1998 study on 305 children and the 2001–2003 study on 161 children indicate that the incidence of urinary tract disease is high between ages 1-3, and 65 percent of the stones consist of calcium oxalate. In 1980, German scientists invented the stone crushing technology using electrohydraulic shockwaves, which turned out to be a beneficial treatment for kidney surgery practice. The National Hospital for Maternal and Child Health's kidney surgery team had 17 surgeries in 2015, 19 surgeries in 2016, 24 surgeries in 2017, and 28 surgeries in 2018, and all of those surgeries were done and treated open. In the last 10 years of our country, children’s urinary tract petrification disease has gradually increased, but research on those diseases risks and factors is lacking. Also, the stone crushing method is necessary for our country’s children's treatment. That’s why we decided to do research on the risk factors of urinary tract disease and its relation to the stone crushing method.
Aim: Describe the features of children’s kidney and urinary tract petrification disease and study the stone crushing method’s results.
Materials and methods: The study was done between December of 2019 and April of 2022, with the assistance of NCMCH's children's kidney surgery team. Within the parameter of the first objective, within the group of cases of kidney and urinary tract disease, there were 13 children under the age of 17. The research study was conducted cross sectional. The research results were processed by the SPSS 25 program. On the seventh meeting of the health ministry, we got the acceptance of a research patent with the assistance of EHEMUT.
Results: The research group consisted of 13 children ages 0–17. The average age of participants was 10.6+-4.2.74. 4 percent of it consisted of men. The research of symptoms showed that back pain n = 13 (100), right side abdominal pain n = 13 (100), disurie n = 3 (23.1), mouth drying n = 2 (15.4), nausea n = 3 (23.1), urine with blood n = 10 (76.9), urine with smell n = 9 (69.2). The position of the stone consisted of 8 (61.5) in the kidney cup, 8 in the kidney cradle. Showing it in which kidney showed that 8 (61.5) were in the right kidney, 3 (23.1) in the left kidney, and 2 (15.4) in both kidneys. The density of the stones was n = 265.8+ 41.9 on average. Kidney stone coming out time was measured by Caplan-Myer’s survivability scale. The stones on the right side of the kidney came out within 14 days on average, while the left and both-sided kidney stones came out within 30 days.
Conclusions:
1. Showing the number of stones and locations indicates that 8 (61.5) were in the right kidney, 3 (23.1) in the left kidney, and 2 (15.4) in both kidneys.
2. The results of Caplan-Meyer's scale indicate that kidney stones within the right kidney came out within 14 days, and left- or both-sided stones came out within 30 days.

Background:
Pneumonia is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in children
around the world. Annually, it’s estimated about total of 120 million cases of pneumonia occur
in children under the age of five around the world and about 2 million of them end in mortality.
In 2017, respiratory diseases constituted 31.3% of all diseases in children under the age of five in
Ulaanbaatar city. 268 cases of respiratory diseases occur in every 1000 children, making it the
leading disease in children of that age group. Sonographic examination has several advantages
including lack of radiation, accessibility, portable (can easily bring it next to the patient’s bed),
cost effective, and can be used repeatedly on the patients. To our knowledge, currently in
Mongolia, there are no published research materials on sonographic examination in children
with pneumonia. Given, the lack of study, increased rate of pneumonia and advantages of
ultrasonographic, the present study was performed to detect lung ultrasound sign of pneumonia
and determine the specificity and sensitivity of lung ultrasound and X-ray.
Methods:
The study used cross-sectional studies of analytical study. 379 inpatient children aged
between 1 month to 14 years old who are in the children’s hospital of Bayangol district between
1st of September 2019 to 1st of December 2019 participated in the study. Procedures included
collection of questionnaires from the parents or the guardians, random collection of data from
the patients’ history, and assessment of results from ultrasound and X-ray examination. The study
used Stata software to analyze the statistics.
Results:
56% or 210 cases showed decreased echogenicity in the ultrasound examination.
Incorporated B line sign (р=0.001),, decreased echogenicity in the consolidation (р=0.001), and
presence air positive bronchus (р=0.001), are shown to the major sign of pneumonia in ultrasound
examination.
Conclusions
In pneumonia, following signs are present in lung ultrasound: Unilateral B-lines,
consolidation, hypoechoic, irregular shaped consolidation, positive air bronchogramm sign
in lung. From the results of our research, we discovered diagnosis sensitivity of pneumonia in
ultrasound is 85%, specificity of pneumonia in ultrasound is 87%, sensitivity of pneumonia in Х ray is
78%, specificity of pneumonia in Х ray is 84%.

Comparative result of laparoscopic versus open varicocelectomy in children
Introduction: Varicocele is an abnormal dilatation of the pampiniform plexus due to the inversion of venous blood flow within spermatic veins. In our country, there is currently no comparative studies for open and laparoscopic varicocelectomy in children and adolescents. Therefore, we need to perform a comparative study of surgical methods.
Methods and materials: The case records of 61 patients were retrospectively reviewed рostoperative recurrence, complications, duration of surgery, hospital stay and cost of surgery who underwent open and laparoscopic varicocelectomy between 1 January, 2012 and 1 January, 2018 at the department of pediatric urology, NCMCH.
Results: The age range for both group was similar, 9 to 18 years, average age was 14 ± 2.1. In the first group, the operation time was 15-50 minutes, with an average of 28.6 ± 5.67 minutes, and 25-90 minutes, with an average of 49 ± 13.7 minutes for second group. Hospital stay in the first group were 3-8 days, with an average of 4.7 ± 0.89, and 3-5 days, with an average of 3.6 ± 0.76 for second group.
Conclusions: Laparoscopic surgery has advantages over traditional open surgery, surgical incision is smaller, less postoperative pain, and a shorter postoperative recovery time. Therefore, in further laparoscopic varicovelectomy (Palomo procedure) may be more appropriate and effective method in children and adolescents.
