RESUMEN
The clinical efficacy and safety of RevoLix 2 μm continuous wave laser vaporesection in treatment of senile patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) were retrospective evaluated.In 291 senile patients with BPH,213 received 2 μm continuous wave laser vaporesection (group A) and other 78 patients received transurethral resection of prostate (TURP, group B).Compared with group B the intraoperative blood loss was less, the bladder irrigation time, catheter time and hospitalization time were shorter in group A.The subjective or objective indexes were all significantly improved at 3 and 12 months after laser treatment.The improvements of international prostate symptom score (IPSS), IPSS-S, overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS) in patients of 70-79 were more marked than those of 80 or older.Patients with mild overactive bladder (OAB) had less improvement in IPSS and IPSS-S than those with moderate-severe OAB which suggest that the storage symptoms could be improved significantly by removing obstruction.
RESUMEN
Apresentamos um relato de astigmatismo tardio progressivo pós-transplante de córnea para ceratocone, associado à afinamento periférico na junção doador-receptor, o que presumidamente pode ser considerado como recorrência da ectasia. O caso foi tratado por meio de Topoplastia de Cvintal assistida por laser de femtossegundo para a confecção da incisão com geometria "top hat", seguido de sutura com ajuste per-operatório guiado por ceratoscopia...
We present a case of late high progressive astigmatism following penetrating keratoplasty for keratoconus, which was associated with peripheral thinning in the donor-receptor area, which may be recognized as recurrence of ectasia. Treatment was accomplished with Cvintal's Topoplasty assisted by femtosecond laser for a "top hat", followed by resuture with peroperative adjustment guided by ceratoscopy...
