Your surgeon will staple the top portion of the stomach closed, separating it from the lower portion of the stomach. He or she then brings up the small intestine and joins it to the pouch. After surgery, the food you eat will go into this small pouch that has been created and then travel directly into your small intestine....
Children with cerebral palsy (CP) are at risk for hip subluxation and dislocation. Hip subluxation and dislocation occur when the hip joint is out of position. This happens slowly over time. The slow subluxation and dislocation in children with cerebral palsy is not the same as a sudden painful hip dislocation that can happen after an injury. The hip is a ball and socket joint. The head of the femur (top of the thigh bone) is the ball and the part of the pelvis that meets the upper end of the thigh bone is the socket....

In many cases, these forms of CHD do not require surgical repair or cardiac catheterization. Critical CHD, however, can bring a significant risk of morbidity and mortality if not diagnosed in a timely manner....
