ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To explore the application of 1.2 mm×35 mm thin walled, long oblique angle syringe needle guided double-J tube insertion through abdominal wall in total laparoscopic ileal neobladder surgery. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 5 patients undergoing total laparoscopic ileal neobladder surgery in our hospital during Dec.2020 and Jan.2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Under laparoscopy and direct vision, 3 cm above pubic symphysis was taken as the puncture point, and an syringe needle was inserted to establish a channel. After that, a double-J tube was inserted under the guidance of the guide wire through the needle. 【Results】 The double-J tube was successfully implanted in all 5 patients. The time needed was 2-4 min, with an average of 3 min. 【Conclusion】 Under the guidance of a 1.2 mm×35 mm syringe needle, the placement of a double-J tube through the abdominal wall in total laparoscopic ileal neobladder surgery is safe, effective, simple and accurate. It can not only preserve the original operation channel without destroying the pneumoperitoneum, but also shorten the operation time. It is a new auxiliary means in total laparoscopic ileal neobladder surgery.
ABSTRACT
The urethrovesical anastomosis during total laparoscopic radical bladder cancer was mostly operated by one-hand. In this study, 10 patients with bladder cancer were legally operated by double-hand, all of which were successfully completed. With the follow-up of 3-15 months, the patient could urinate smoothly, with no anastomotic fistula or stenosis. The effect of the urethrovesical anastomosis was satisfactory.
ABSTRACT
The aim of the study is to determine the characteristics of the material properties of various structures in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and the mandibular bone tissues in nanoscopic scale. Using the atomic force microcopy (AFM) with the nanoindentation method, the nanomechanical properties of 6 discs, condylar cartilages and fossate cartilages in the TMJ, and 6 cortical and cancellous bones in the mandible of 3 normal adult men, were measured and analyzed. Results showed that marked differences were found in elastic properties among the different regions of the disc, articular cartilage in the TMJ. In the distribution of elastic modulus in these various structures, the elastic modulus was higher in the anterior and medial regions and lower in the middle, posterior and lateral regions. Otherwise, elastic modulus of the cortical bone in the mandible was approximately 2 times more than the cancellous bone. Elastic modulus in the buccal bone tissues of the mandible was more distinctly below one of the lingual site. The results suggested that the disc, condylar cartilage and fossate cartilage in the TMJ and the cortical and cancellous bone in the mandible were inhomogeneous with the nanolevel measurement. Different structures or various regions in the same structure were loaded by different local mechanical forces in the nanoscale.
