ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the anatomy and sexual outcomes of patients with Mayer-Rokitansky-KüsterHauser(MRKH)syndrome undergoing modified laparoscopic sigmoid vaginoplasty.METHODS: From January 2010 to January 2017,49 MRKH syndrome patients underwent the modified laparoscopic sigmoid vaginoplasty in Guangdong Women and Children's Hospital.Analysis of the anatomy and the sexual outcomes of the neovagina was conducted.The sexual functional outcomes were assessed using the Female Sexual Function Index(FSFI)questionnaire.45 cases of similar-aged women with normal sexual life were selected as controls.RESULTS: Modified laparoscopic sigmoid vaginoplasty was successfully performed in all 49 patients.The mean operative time and intraoperative blood loss was(186±53.7)minutes and(63.8±10.6)mL respectively.The mean length and width of the neovagina at the 6-month followup examination was(12.9±1.56)cm and(3.32±0.33)cm respectively.FSFI score between the MRKH group and the control group:Desire[(4.40±0.59)vs.(4.04±0.71),P0.05],Lubrication[(4.90 ± 0.58)vs.(4.67 ± 0.79),P>0.05],Orgasm[(4.29 ± 0.70)vs.(4.20 ± 0.79),P>0.05],Satisfaction[(4.51 ± 0.82)vs.(4.45 ± 0.91),P>0.05],Comfort[(4.71 ± 0.81)vs.(4.78 ± 0.72),P>0.05],Total score[(27.08 ± 2.83)vs.(26.53 ± 2.98),P>0.05].CONCLUSION: Modified laparoscopic sigmoid vaginoplasty is an effective and safe technique for MRKH syndrome patients,which provides a nearly normal sexual function for patients with MRKH syndrome.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the epidemiological features and influencing factors of human brucellosis in Qinghai province,and to provide scientific basis for prevention and control of brucellosis.Methods From 2006 to 2010,select the high incidence areas of brucellosis in Qinghai province and five counties(Henan,Dari,Tianjun,Ping'an and Haiyan counties) included in the “Central Subsidies to Local Public Health Special Fund Human Brucellosis Prevention and Control Projects” for the survey point,as well as high-risk employees from Qinghai Biological Pharmaceutical Factory were investigated.Combined with epidemiological questionnaire investigation [done according to the “National Human Brucellosis Surveillance Program(Trial)”],clinical symptoms and signs,confirmed human brucellosis patient were tested by intradermal allergy test,rose bengal plate agglutination test(RBPT) and standard tube agglutination test (SAT),in accordance with “Diagnostic Criteria and Principles of Management of Brucellosis” (GB 15988-1995) and“Diagnostic Criteria for Brucellosis” (WS 269-2007).Results Of 8368 serum samples detected,347 were RBPT positive,and the positive rate was 4.15％;5346 serum samples were tested by SAT,180 were positive,and the positive rate was 3.37％.In June 2009,112 employees in Qinghai Biological Pharmaceutical Factory were investigated on a follow-up survey,83 were RBPT positive,the positive rate was 74.11％; 58 were SAT positive,the positive rate was 51.79％.Eight of them were new cases and 4 were chronic brucellosis.Twenty five new cases were reported between 2006 and 2010.The peak incidence was from March to July.Most of the cases were herdsmen.ConclusionStrengthening animal quarantine,strengthening public education,and improving protection awareness,can effectively control the disease brucellosis.
