RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of holographic image technology in robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP).Methods:The clinical data of 34 patients with prostate cancer who underwent RARP in our hospital during October 2020 and December 2020 was analyzed retrospectively. The average age of the patients was 67.8 (52-78) years. The mean BMI was 25.8 (18.0-32.3) kg/m 2. The median level of PSA before surgery was 13.4 (2-149) ng/ml. Median prostate volume was 31.7 (9.5-159.1) ml. EAU risk groups for biochemical recurrence of localised and locally advanced prostate cancer were list as below: 5 cases of low-risk, 7 cases of medium-risk, 22 cases of high-risk. There were 9, 16, 9 cases with the ASA score of 1, 2, 3 point, respectively. Preoperative Gleason score of 34 patients were list as below: 9 cases in score ≤6 group, 15 cases in score=7 group, 10 cases in score ≥8 group. For clinical stage before the surgery, 13 cases ≤T 2a stage, 1 case in T 2b stage, 20 cases ≥T 2c stage. The engineers established holographic images of 34 patients based on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and the reports before the operation. Surgeons can obtain the size and location of tumors, surrounding neurovascular bundles visually by revolving, assembling, disassembling and concealing images, which was helpful for pre-surgery planning. By manipulating the holographic images extracorporeally, surgeons can discriminate Internal sphincter of urinary bladder and vesicoprostatic muscle, neurovascular bundles, membranous part, seminal vesicle easily, which improves the operation accuracy. Results:All 34 cases underwent operation successfully without transferring to open surgery. The median operative time was 157.5 (95-276) min with an estimated blood loss of 50 (20-300) ml. The median drainage removal time was 2 d and median hospitalization time was 3.5 d, respectively. The catheters were removed within an average time of 20.5 d. For postoperative Gleason score, there were 2 cases in score ≤6 group, 16 cases in score =7 group, 8 cases in score ≥8 group and 8 cases can’t make a score. For clinical stage after the surgery, 10 cases were ≤T 2a stage, 1 case was T 2b stage, 23 cases were ≥cT 2c stage. 22 cases underwent pelvic lymph node dissection, including a patient with right iliac fossa lymph node metastasis. There were 2 cases with positive surgical margin and 3 cases with Clavien-DindoⅠcomplications. The rate of 1-month and 3-month urinary continence were 47.1% and79.4%, respectively, 8 cases recovered erectile function after 3 month. Conclusions:Holographic image technology can promote cancer dissection completely, achieve urinary continence early and reduce perioperative complications tremendously. The technology is the "intraoperative security" for the accurate surgical treatment of prostate cancer.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT imaging in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients with different PSA levels. Methods:The imaging and clinical data of 50 patients with CRPC who underwent 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT examination in Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2018 to December 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The average age was 72 (54-95) years old. Serum total PSA was 92.28(0.36-2000.00) ng/ml. According to the total PSA level, the patients were divided into low PSA group(total PSA ≤ 1 ng/ml, n=9), medium PSA group (1 ng/ml<total PSA ≤ 10 ng/ml, n=18) and high PSA group(total PSA>10ng/ml, n=23). According to the standardized evaluation standard of molecular imaging, the suspicious tumor lesions on 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT imaging were scored by molecular imaging PSMA(miPSMA), and the miPSMA score ≥2 was defined as positive lesions. According to the number of lesions displayed by 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT, patients were divided into oligofocal group (the number of lesions ≤3) and multiple lesions group (the number of lesions >3). The imaging characteristics of patients in different groups were summarized. Results:The 18F-DCFPyL PET/CT imaging results of 50 cases in this study were all positive, including oligofocal group (n=27) and multiple lesions group (n=23). Of the 30 patients with unresected prostate, 18 had local recurrence of the prostate, while the other 12 patients with unresected prostate and 20 patients with resected prostate had no signs of local recurrence. The oligofocal group showed local recurrence, regional lymph node metastasis or bone metastasis. Patients with multiple lesions showed multiple lymph nodes and/or bone metastasis with or without local recurrence. There were 9, 18 and 4 patients with oligofoci in low, middle and high PSA groups, respectively.There were 27 patients in the oligonucleogenous group, and 21 of the 22 patients receiving local treatment were effective. All 3 patients treated with systemic treatments were effective. PSA progressed in 2 untreated patients. In the multi-foci group of 23 patients, 6 of 9 patients treated with abiraterone were effective. Two patients treated with enzalumide were ineffective. One of the 4 patients with chemotherapy was effective. One of the two patients treated with 177 Lu-PSMA nuclide was effective. One case did not respond to treatment with 89SrCl 2. Radiotherapy failed in 2 cases. PSA progressed in 3 untreated patients. Conclusions:18F-DCFPyLPET/CT imaging has a high detection rate of lesions in patients with CRPC and has potential guiding significance for follow-up treatment. The number of lesions in CRPC patients with different PSA levels was different, and the patients with low PSA levels were mainly oligofoci.
RESUMEN
Objective To conclude and compare the technical characteristics and clinical efficacy of retroperitoneal and transperitoneal approach for robotic partial nephrectomy.Methods 418 patients received robotic partial nephrectomy conducted by one surgeon in the urology department of PLA General Hospital from 2013, December to 2015, October, including 157 cases in retroperitoneal approach and 261 cases in transperitoneal approach.There were no significant difference between the transperitoeal and retroperitoneal approach in patient age(51 years, 51 years, P=0.593), BMI(25.5 kg/m2,25.6 kg/m2, P=0.331), gender(male/female:111/46,186/75,P=0.184), location(left/right,80/77,123/138,P=0.575), tumor size(3.1cm,3.5cm,P =0.356), comorbidities, proportion of solitary kidney(11.5%, 9.6%,P=0.253) or bilateral tumors(1.3%,3.4%,P=0.179), RENAL score(6(5-8),6(5-8),P=0.083), ASA score(2 vs.2)(P=0.310) and preoperative serum creatinine(74.7 μmol/L,76.7 μmol/L, P=0.736).Patients in the retroperitoeal approach group were more likely to have abdomen surgery history (21.7%,14.2%,P=0.049).there was significant difference between two approaches in tumor location in the kidney ( anterior/posterior/others: 9/140/8, 212/36/13, P <0.001 ) Results The operation time (105min, 115min, P =0.041 ) and warm ischemia time ( 15min, 20min, P <0.001 ) were shorter and estimated blood loss(50ml,75ml,P<0.001) was less in the retroperitoneal group.No significant difference was observed in postoperative 24h blood loss(45ml,50ml,P =0.093), intraoperative transfusion rate (2.5%,6.5%,P=0.072) and collective system injury(24.8%,27.6%,P =0.539) between the two groups.Peritoneum break occurred in 25 cases in retroperitoneal group, which were repaired by Hem-o-lock.One intestinal injury occurred in transperitoneal group and was repaired intraoperatively.Three and nine cases in the retroperitoneal and transperitoneal group were converted to radical nephrectomy.One case in the transperitoneal group was found positive margin and received laparoscopic radical nephrectomy.Two liver injury and five spleen injury occurred in the transperitoneal group.For postoperative food intake(1 day, 2 days, P <0.001 ) , the length of indwelling drainage ( 3 days, 4 days, P <0.001 ) and the length of postoperative stay ( 5 days, 6 days, P =0.001 ) , the retroperitoneal group had one day shorter than the transperitoneal group.With the median following-up time of both group, 11 months (IQR:6-16) in RPRPN group and 12 months ( IQR: 7-19 ) , no subject with a tumor recovery or metastasis.Conclusions Retroperitoneal robotic partial nephrectomy is feasible and effective, which is similar to transperitoneal approach.The retroperitoneal approach is superior to transperitoneal approach for posterior, lateral and superior renal tumors.
