RESUMEN
Ninety six female patients with chronic renal failure were randomly allocated into combination group (n =48) and control group (n =48).In combination group patients received both kidney transplantation and hematopoietic stem cell infusion,in control group patients underwent kidney transplantation only.The results showed that chronic rejection in the combination group was lower than that in the control group [2%(1/48)vs.17% (8/48),P<0.05)].The 1-,3-,5-and 10 y-survival rates of kidney in the combination group were 98% (47/48),94% (45/48),83% (34/41) and 9/17,respectively,those in control group were 98% (47/48),90% (43/48),76% (31/41) and 7/17,respectively.Infusion of donor hematopoietic stem cells can augment chimerism in early postoperative period and significantly reduce the rate of graft rejection,which is beneficial for the quality of life of the recipients.
RESUMEN
Objective To summarize our experience in the modified total cystectomy and neobladder in patients with invasive bladder cancer.Methods Twenty one male patients with invasive bladder cancer were treated with modified total cystectomy and neobladder.Reconstruction of the lower urinary tract using modifiled ileal neobladder(in 17 patients)and sigmoid neobladder(in 4 patients)were performed.The median age of the patients was 62 years.The patients were followed up for 1-4 years.Clinical outcomes of these patients was evaluated,including the function of the neobladder,urinary function,renal function,serum electrolytes and QOL.Results There was no surgical mortality.The operating time was 3.5-6.5 h(mean,4.5 h).Blood transfusion was required in 4 cases.Fifteen patients(97 % had voluntary control of urination at daytime and 6 at night.They were functional to control urination 3-6 months after operation.Hydronephrosis to certain extent occurred in 5 patients,but was recovered after 6-8 months.There were one case of intestinal obstruction and one case of metabolic acidosis.Residual urinary volume was 30 ml in 1 cases and 40 ml in another.Conclusions Modified total cystectomy and neobladder is an ideal technique to treat invasive bladder cancer with good clinical outcomes of tumor control,high life quality,few severe complications and good urination control.
