Tracheobronchial foreign bodies: presentation and management in children and adults.

TL;DR: At presentation, the symptoms seen with AFBs do not differ according to the age of the patient; however, the delay to diagnosis, the location of the AFBs, and the radiographic images differ between child and adult populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Size reduction of the donor liver is a safe way to alleviate the shortage of size-matched organs in pediatric liver transplantation.

TL;DR: The reported experience with 54 reduced- size grafts on a total of 141 transplants performed in 117 children between 1984 and 1988 demonstrates that the technique of reduced-size liver transplantation not only allows long-term survival but, in fact, offers the same survival hope with the same quality of liver function, regardless of the child's age and clinical condition.
