ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To observe the efficacy of blue laser side light in the vaporization and enucleation of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). 【Methods】 A retrospective analysis was performed on the data of NMIBC patients who received transurethral enucleation of bladder tumor (TURBT) using a 50 W blue laser treatment device. The efficacy and safety of surgery were evaluated by observing the application of blue laser in the treatment of bladder cancer in different locations, operation time, presence of bladder perforation and postoperative urine routine indicators. 【Results】 A total of 16 patients completed the surgery, including 5 cases with multiple bladder tumors, 9 with single bladder tumor, and 2 with lichenoid lesions. The postoperative pathological results showed all of them were NMIBC. The operation time was (10.4±4.7) min, postoperative urinalysis was (689.4±316.7)/μL, and no intraoperative bladder perforation occurred. 【Conclusion】 The lateral infusion mode of 50 W blue laser therapy device can be applied to the surgical treatment of NMIBC. The basal vaporization and enucleation of bladder cancer can be performed under direct vision conditions, and the multi-angle enucleation is suitable for bladder cancer in different positions. The tissue penetration depth of blue laser is shallow, which is conducive to the diagnosis and grading of pathological tissues.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To explore the effects of sexual function-preserving 450 nm blue laser vaporization of the prostate on the postoperative sexual function of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety and feasibility of this procedure. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 20 BPH patients treated in our department during Jan. and Mar.2023 were analyzed. The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Quality of Life Scale (QoL) score, maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), residual urine volume (PVR) and International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) data were compared before and after the operation. The operation time, postoperative catheter indwelling time, and hospital stay were recorded. The ejaculation status 2 months after operation was followed up. 【Results】 All 20 patients completed the operation successfully. The operation time was (13.41±4.30) min, catheter indwelling time (1.2±0.4) d, and hospital stay (3.0±0.6) d. The IPSS, QoL, PVR and Qmax data 1 month after operation were significantly improved compared with those before operation (P0.05). 【Conclusion】 The modified 450 nm blue laser vaporization of the prostate can improve the urination symptoms of BPH patients while retaining sexual function. It is a safe and feasible technique for BPH patients who have sexual needs, and provides an alternative surgical approach for those looking to preserve sexual function.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To evaluate the clinical efficacy of 200 W blue laser vaporization of prostate and the possibility of developing such surgery into day surgery. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 30 patients treated during Aug. and Sep.2022 were retrospectively reviewed. The residual urine volume, urine flow rate, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) and Quality of Life Scale(QoL) score before and after surgery were compared. The operation time and postoperative routine urinary red blood cell count were recorded. 【Results】 All surgeries were successful and the catheter was moved 1 day after surgery. The operation time was (12.2±5.1) min, postoperative bladder irrigation time (20.0±4.2) h, and urinary red blood cell count (806.2±16.3)/μL. Recatheter was needed in 1 patient. The urinary flow rate before surgery, immediately and 1-month after surgery were (10.6±3.5) mL/s, (24.2±5.6) mL/s, and (27.2±3.1) mL/s, respectively. The residual urine was (57.3±3.2) mL before surgery and (5.6±3.1) mL 1-month after surgery. The average preoperative IPSS and QoL scores were (25.1±1.6) and (5.4±0.7), and were (9.5±1.4) and (2.9±0.6), respectively, 3-months after surgery. 【Conclusion】 Transurethral 200 W blue laser vaporization of the prostate is a practical and feasible surgical technique for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. It is effective, rapid and safe, and can greatly shorten the length of hospital stay and improve perioperative safety. With the improvement of clinical application technology, it can be a choice of prostatic day surgery.
