ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical features of multiple primary malignancies ( MPM) in patients with kidney malignancy .Methods The clinical data of 111 patients suffered from MPM associated with kidney malignant tumor in Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital and Affiliated Yantai Hospital of Binzhou Medical College from April 1984 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed .Results Among the 111 cases,there were 100 cases with two primary malignancies ,9 with three cancers and 2 cases with four or five cancers.Synchronous MPM were 37 cases,and metachronous 74 cases.The interval between the first and the second primary malignancy was between 0 and 348 months,with average of 46 months and median of 16 months.One hundred and seventy-two cases were treated by operation , and 64 cases by conservative therapy.The proportion of operation from the first to the fifth cancers were 89.2%(99/111),59.5%(66/111),54.5%(6/11),50.0%(1/2),0%(0/1),respectively,with the trend of declining.Finally 95 cases (85.6%) were followed up ,with 53 cases survived and 42 cases died.From the diagnostic date of the first primary cancer,overall survival in 1 year,3 years,5 years,10 years were 97.2%,77.2%,67.8%,48.4%, respectively.Median survival time was 120 months.From the diagnostic date of the last primary cancer , overall survival in 1 year,3 years,5 years were 81.4%,53.4%,48.2%,respectively.Median survival was only 48 months.Univariate analysis showed that the cumulative survival rate was higher in patients with operation than conservative therapy ( P =0.000 ) , in metachronous group than synchronous group ( P =0.009).COX proportional hazard model showed metachronous MPM (OR=3.870,95%CI 1.702-8.801,P=0.001),aggressive operation of the first primary cancer (OR=0.107,95%CI 0.018-0.647,P=0.015) and the second cancer (OR=0.313,95%CI 0.131 -0.750, P=0.009) were independent prognostic factors. Conclusions The main treatment of MPM associated with kidney malignancy is aggressive operation, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and biological therapy are adjuvant .Early detection and early operation for MPM are beneficial for increasing the survival of the patients .
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clnical value of percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with flexible cystoscope in the treatment of complicated renal calculi.Methods Data of 53 cases of complex renal calculi treated with single channel percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with flexible cystoscope from July 2011 to September 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.There were 31 males and 22 females.Their age ranged from 26 to 74 years with a mean age of 49 years.Thirty-two cases were located on the left side,19 cases right,2 cases bilateral,21 cases of staghorn calculi and 32 cases of multiple stones.All the stones were filled in 2 or more calyces,with 7 cases in upper ureteral stones at the same time and 2 cases in solitary kidney.The longest diameter of stones was between 2.5 cm to 4.6 cm,with an average of 3.7 cm.There were 39 cases with hydronephrosis and the separation of the collection system was 2.0-5.1 cm with an average of 3.8cm.The period which patients suffered from stones was from 1 month to 6 years.Fourteen cases underwent ESWL and 6 cases underwent open operation before percutaneous nephrolithotomy.All patients underwent single channel percutaneous nephrolithotomy under the guidance of color Doppler ultrasound,and the channel of puncture was expanded to 24 F.Results Fifty-three cases (55 sides) were performed successfully in one-stage sugery and the operation time was between 85 to 170 min,with an average of 119 min.Thestone clearance rate was 89％ (49/55) and postoperative hemoglobin decreased 3.9-9.2 g/L with an average of 6.1 g/L.The hospitalization time was 8 to 12 days with an average of 9.2 days.Two cases had hemorrhage of about 500 ml after surgery and the renal hemorrhage stopped after clamping of renal fistula without blood transfusion.Two patients suffered from fever on surgery day and 1 patient on one day after surgery,and the body temperature returned to normal level after anti-infection treatment for 2 or 3 days.No renal perforation,fluid pneumothorax or damaged surrounding organs occurred.6 patients had residual stones,among which 2 were treated by two-stage operation and 4 were treated with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy.Conclusion Percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with flexible cystoscope has little trauma and high stone clearance rate in the treatment of complex renal calculi with high clinical value.
