ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the results and reality of transurethral resection of bladder tumor(TUR-Bt) with upside down loop and plsamakinetic in the prevention of obturator nerve reflex.Methods A total of 211 patients with lumbar anesthesia received TUR-Bt.Firstly,the tumor tower above bladder wall was cut with the traditional way.When intraoperative findings were obturator nerve reflex,or to the obturator nerve mapping area,operation should be changed to superimpulse plasma column electrode vaporization to cut off residual tumor tissue,then after flipping the loop,the residual tumour was resected with upside-down loop from the tumour side wall.Results In 211 cases,192 cases had a little obturator nerve reflex,but the movement of body was not obvious,which did not influence the operation.The serious complication,such as perforation of bladder and injury of nerve and vessel,did not occur.Conclusions The lateral resection of bladder side wall tumour with upside-down loop can effectively avoid strong obturator nerve reflex,which is safe,uncomplicated,and efficacious and it does not increase the additional outlay and hurt.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the technique and efficacy of retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. Methods From June 2002 to December 2009, 113 cases of renal tumor received retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. The age ranged from 26 to 73 years. The tumor located in left side in 51 cases and right side in 62 cases with the mean diameter of 3.7 cm(1.2-6.3cm). During the procedure, the renal artery was separated and then clamped with bulldog. The renal parenchymal was incised with cold endoscissor and the tumor was totally removed. Pelvicalyceal repairing and parenchymal hemostasis were then performed. Renal defect closure was achieved with running suture or horizontal mattress suture. Results All the procedures were completed successfully.There was no open conversion. The mean operation time was 85 min(60- 125 min), the mean warm ischemic time was 24 min(19-43 min). The pathology studies revealed 87 cases of clear cell carcinoma, 9 cases of papillary renal cell carcinoma, 7 cases of chromophobe cell carcinoma, 6 cases of perivascular epithelioid renal cell tumor and 4 cases of renal oncocytoma. The surgical margin was negative in all cases. There was no complication of urine leakage. Gross hematuria occurred in 2 cases.During 3-41 months of following up, there was no recurrence. Conclusion Retroperitoneal laparo-scopic partial nephrectomy is safe and effective for the treatment of renal tumor, which becomes an alternative treatment to open procedure.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the association of MIF-173 locus polymorphism and the risk of prostate cancer (PCa) in China. Methods A case control study including 259 PCa patients and 301 age-matched controls was conducted. The polymorphisms of MIF-173 locus were analyzed by poly-merase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique using genomic DNA isolated from peripheral blood lymphocytes. The correlations between the susceptibility to PCa and different genotypes were compared. The effect of age, smoking method and family history of canc-er were also analyzed. Results The rate of the MIF-173 * C variant allele of the PCa patients(n=259) was significantly higher than that of the controls (n=301) (36.0% vs 15.0%). The MIF-173 *C variant allele could significantly increase the risk of PCa (OR=2.96,95%CI: 1.92-4.57). Peo-ple with older age (age>70) or family history of cancer, who carried MIF-173 * C allele demonstra-ted a significantly increased risk in comparison with those carrying wild genotype of G/G(OR=3.66, 95%CI=2.02-6.62;OR=3.26, 95%CI=1.24-8.55). Conclusion These results suggested that polymorphisms of MIF-173 locus appear to influence the risk of PCa and may have synergistic effect with age and family history of cancer.
