ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore comprehensive treatment for severe infection caused by ureteral calculus.@*Methods@#The clinical data of 12 patients with severe infection caused by ureteral calculus in the Second People's Hospital of Lianyungang from January 2016 to December 2017 were reviewed.The patients cured by anti-infective therapy received one-stage surgical treatment.The patients with ineffective anti-infective therapy received one-stage cystoscopic retrograde double J tube or B ultrasound-guided percutaneous nephrostomy first, then ureteral calculus was treated.@*Results@#Two patients were cured by empirical antimicrobial agents.One patient was successfully cured by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) and the other by retroperitoneoscopic ureterolithotomy.Ten patients were not responsive to empirical antimicrobial agents.Two patients refused treatment and requested discharge from the hospital.The other 8 patients received two-stage treatment.In the stage I, cystoscopic retrograde double J tube was accomplished in 3 patients, and 5 patients were treated successfully by percutaneous nephrostomy guided by B ultrasound.In the stage II, one patient with ureter stone-street was cured by lithagogue drugs, 2 patients were successfully cured by ESWL, one patient by holmium laser lithotripsy under ureteroscope, 2 patients by ureterolithotomy and 2 patients by percutaneous nephrolithotomy by endoscopy and holmium laser.@*Conclusion@#The therapy of retrograde double J tube at cystoscopy or percutaneous nephrostomy guided by B ultrasound combined with empirical antimicrobial agents in the satae I, combined with lithotripsy according to guidelines in the stage II in treating severe infection caused by ureteral calculus have more advantage such as simple, less injury, rapid control of infection, less complication and satisfactory effect.It is an ideal method.

ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical and pathological characteristics and treatment of penile schwannoma.Methods One case of penile schwannoma was reported,and the relevant literature was reviewed to investigate the histogenesis,diagnosis and treatment of this disease.Related literature from PubMed and Wanfang databases to date(up to April 2017)with"penis" or"penile" combined with "schwannoma" or"neurilemmoma" as search terms was reviewed.Results One 40-year-old male presented in October 2015 with a tumor at the root of the dorsal penis for 1 year.Physical examination revealed a non-tender,easily movable without adhesion to the skin,1.2cm ×0.8cm nodule at the root of the dorsal penis,the overlying skin was smooth and intact.No evidence of neurofibromatosis was found.Hypoechoic well-defined nodule(1.7cm ×0.4cm)located between the superficial skin and corpus cavernosum was showed on ultrasound without blood flow signal.Simple excision of the tumor was performed under local anesthesia.Grossly,the tumor was a well-defined,white,soft 1.5cm ×1cm ×0.7cm nodule.Microscopically,the tumor was composed of Antoni A area with hypercellular and nuclear palisading.Immunohistochemical staining showed S-100(+++),SMA(-),Act(-).The pathological diagnosis was penile schwannoma.Postoperatively,the patient recovered well without erectile dysfunction.During a follow-up 18 months,the patient had no recurrence.By literature review,we found 14 cases in Chinese articles with one malignant case,while 33 cases in English articles with six malignant cases.The average age of onset was 39.2 years.Most of the tumors are benign and located in the dorsal side of the penis.Penile schwannoma can be diagnosed properly based on pathological examination,owing to the lack of typical clinical and imaging manifestation.The tumor resection was the treatment of choice for benign penile schwannoma without postoperative complications.Conclusion Penile schwannoma is extreme rarity,but can be diagnosed properly based on postoperative pathological examination,owing to the lack of typical clinical and imaging manifestation.S-100 is a useful marker for the diagnosis of schwannoma.The tumor resection is the treatment of choice for benign penile schwannoma without erectile dysfunction or recurrence ;for the malignant,the final diagnosis relies on postoperative pathological examination after the secondary operation with local recurrence.The tumor resection combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy is reliable treatment,but the prognosis is poor.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the cause, diagnosis and treatment of retroperitoneal fibrosis.Methods 5 cases of retroperitoneal fibrosis were respectively treated by moving ureter into abdomen cavity, encapsulating with pediculate omenta and ilel ureter.Results Following-up of 5 cases for 1 to 3 years, all cases had normal renal functions and hydronephrosis were much decreased.Conclusions Intravenous urogenous(IVU),retrograde pyelography(RGP) and computed tomography (CT) are important methods to diagnose the disease. And the treatment method chosen depends on the range, location of ureterostenosis, and whether the ureter is open or not.
