Аннотация
BACKGROUND: The position of the patient is important for good access during surgery. The aim of this paper is to present a simple lithotomy device for children.
METHOD: We present a simple easy-to-construct and affordable lithotomy device utilizing locally available materials for paediatricpatients.
RESULTS: A simple, cheap and easy-to-construct lithotomy device for children has been used in our centre. It is also easy to sterilize and very durable. No complication has been noticed so far that is attributable to the lithotomy device. It has been used for Swenson's procedure for Hirschsprung's disease, and rectal biopsy.
CONCLUSION: The affordability of the device will save hospital administrators and the country great cost while still being effective. The device is being recommended for use in developing countries where paediatric operating tables are not available.
