RESUMO
【Objective】 To investigate the penile appearance, sexual function, psychological status and related influencing factors of adult patients who underwent hypospadias repair surgery in their minors, so as to provide reference for the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of hypospadias. 【Methods】 This study included 50 adult hypospadias patients who underwent urethroplasty in our hospital during May 2005 and Aug. 2018. The present appearance, sexual function and psychological status were evaluated. The correlation and consistency between hypospadias objective scoring evaluation (HOSE) and pediatric penile perception score (PPPS) were analyzed. Factors affecting the results were determined with univariate and multivariate regression analysis. 【Results】 The satisfaction rate of HOSE was significantly correlated with the urethral length and complications (P=0.024, P=0.033). The satisfaction rate of PPPS was significantly correlated with the number of urethral operations and postoperative complications (P=0.041, P=0.023). There was a weak correlation between HOSE and PPPS (r=0.291, P=0.040), but almost no consistency (Kappa=0.2, P=0.107). Sixty percent of the patients paid attention to the ventral appearance of penis, whose dissatisfaction rate of PPPS was higher than those who did not pay attention to the ventral appearance of the penis (19/30 vs. 6/20, P=0.021). Patients with multiple operations (>1), postoperative complications or unsatisfactory penile appearance were more likely to have inferiority complex (52.6% vs. 22.6%, P=0.029; 59.1% vs.14.3%, P=0.001;61.5% vs. 24.3%, P=0.015). Multivariate regression analysis showed that dissatisfaction with the appearance of the penis was an independent risk factor for patients’ perception of their own physical defects. Among the patients who believed that they had physical defects, the percentage of patients with grade IV penile erectile hardness was significantly lower than that of those who denied they had physical defects (9/17 vs. 27/33, P=0.047). 【Conclusion】 The undesirable postoperative penis appearance is likely to have a negative impact on patients’ long-term psychological state, which might further damage the sexual function in adulthood. Surgeons should pay attention to the penile appearance during the conduction of hypospadias repair.
RESUMO
Objective To compare the postoperative effects of Onlay transverse island preputial flap and Onlay transverse free island preputial graft for midshaft hypospadias repair.Methods Retrospective analysis of clinical data of 59 patients with midshaft hypospadias who underwent hypospadias repair from January 2013 to December 2018.Among them,49 children were repaired with Onlay transverse island preputial flap,aged from 14 months to 81 months,with the median age of 28 months.Ten children were repaired with Onlay transverse free island preputial graft.The age at surgery was from 15 months to 51 months,with the median age of 30 months.There was no significant difference in term of the age at surgery between the two groups (Z =-0.384,P =0.701).There were 9 cases of Donnahoo Ⅱ and 40 cases of Donnahoo Ⅲ in the traditional Onaly group,and 3 cases of Donnahoo Ⅱ and 7 cases of Donnahoo Ⅲ in the free graft Onlay group,respectively.There was no significant difference in the type of chordee between the two groups(x2 =0.161,P =0.688).The classification of hypospadias,the length of the urethroplasty and surgical complications were compared.The maximum urinary flow rate of some patients was summarized and analyzed after operation.Results Follow-up ranged from 3 to 72 months,with a median period of 38 months.In the children who underwent Onlay transverse island preputial flap,there were 2 cases of distal shaft,5 cases of middle shaft,and 42 cases of proximal shaft.The neourethra was 1.3-3.5 cm,with a median of 2.3 cm.There were 11 cases of fistula,1 case of glan dehiscence,and 1 case of diverticulum.Ten children were treated with Onlay transverse free island preputial graft.There were 1 case of distal shaft,2 cases of middle shaft and 7 cases of proximal shaft.The neourethra was 1.2-2.5 cm,with a median of 2.0 cm.Two cases of fistula occurred after operation.There was no significant difference in hypospadias classification between the two groups(x2 =1.313,P =0.519).There was no significant difference in the length of the urethra between the two groups (Z =-1.732,P =0.083).There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two surgical methods (x2 =0.001,P =0.973).The patients' parents were satisfied with the appearance of genital organ after operation.Fourteen patients finished the uroflowmetry 3 months after surgery.Twelve patients in the traditional Onlay group had a urine volume of 60.2-147.8 ml,with an average of 98.8 ml.The maximum urinary flow rate was 3.5-13.6 ml/s,with an average of 8.1 ml/s.In the free graft Onlay group,the urine volume was 101.3-165.4 ml,with an average of 133.5 ml,and the maximum urinary flow rate was 9.6-15.7 ml/s,with an average of 12.7 ml/s.Conclusions Onlay transverse free island preputial graft has the same complication incidence with Onlay transverse island preputial flap,but could get a good maximum urinary flow rate and cosmetic result,which could achieve a good choice for midshaft hypospadias repair.
RESUMO
Objective@#To assess the reliability and validity of the Urinary Tract Dilation (UTD) classification system as a new grading system for fetal hydronephrosis, and analyze the risk factors for prognosis of fetal hydronephrosis.@*Methods@#The data of patients who presented with fetal hydronephrosis from January to July 2016 at Sichuan Aca-demy of Medical Sciences & Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital were retrospectively reviewed.The outcome of the patients who were treated with surgery or without surgical treatment was recorded if they were older than 2 years old.All renal nephrons were regraded if UTD classification system had been used for antenatal hydronephrosis assessment reliability previously.Univariate and multivariate analysis was performed to analyze the risk factors for prognosis of fetal hydronephrosis.@*Results@#A total of 94 patients (136 renal nephrons) were eligible for enrollment.During the observation period, 43 kidneys received surgery which had clinical indications for surgery, and the remaining 93 kidneys without surgery were stable until the end of the observation period.Ultrasound finding of fetal hydronephrosis in the second trimester were graded according to UTD grading system.Among the 51 kidneys with UTD A1, 7 kidneys (13.73%) received surgery during the observation period, and 35 kidneys (47.30%) received surgery during the observation period among 74 kidneys with UTD A2-3.In the third trimester of pregnancy, among 54 kidneys with UTD A1, 3 kidneys (5.56%) were operated during the observation period, and among 82 kidneys with UTD A2-3, 40 kidneys (48.78%) were operated during the observation period.Multivariate analysis revealed that parenchymal thickness before 32 weeks and UTD classification system during the third trimester of pregnancy were risk factors for fetal hydronephrosis which required surgical treatment after birth.@*Conclusions@#The UTD classification system is reliable for the evaluation of fetal hydronephrosis and is valid in predicting surgical intervention.Parenchymal thickness before 32 weeks and grading UTD A2-3 after 32 weeks is a risk factor for postnatal surgery.Analysis of fetal hydronephrosis data based on UTD grading system and standardized follow-up are helpful to control the risk of fetal hydronephrosis effectively.
RESUMO
Objective: To investigate the application of cavernosum reduction technology in glanuloplasty during the repair of moderate-severe hypospadias and evaluate the effectiveness. Methods: The clinical data of 192 patients with moderate-severe hypospadias between November 2015 and May 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 103 patients were treated with the cavernosum reduction technology in glanuloplasty during the repair (observation group), 88 patients were treated with repair and glanuloplasty without the cavernosum reduction technology (control group). There was no significant difference in maximum transverse diameter of glans and the height of glans between 2 groups ( t=1.652, P=0.152; t=1.653, P=0.077). The length of reconstructed urethra, complications (e.g. glans dehiscence and fistula), and the maximum flow rate at 3 months after operation in 2 groups were recorded. Results: The length of reconstructed urethra were (35.51±7.79) mm in observation group and (32.17±6.37) mm in control group. In observation group, the meatus location after the correction of chordee was proximal in 24 cases and scrotum-perineum in 79 cases. In control group, the meatus location after the correction of chordee was proximal in 21 cases and scrotum-perineum in 67 cases. There was no significant difference in the meatus location between 2 groups ( χ2=0.008， P=0.920). All patients were followed up 6-12 months after operation (mean, 9 months). There were 3 cases of urethral fistula, 2 cases of glans dehiscence, and 3 cases of urethral orifice stricture in observation group, with the incidence of complications of 7.8%. There were 7 cases of urethral fistula, 3 cases of glans dehiscence, and 4 cases of urethral orifice stricture in control group, with the incidence of complications of 15.9%. There was a significant difference in the incidence of complications between 2 groups ( χ2=4.027, P=0.040). The appearance of the penis was satisfactory, and the urethral orifice was fissured, which was close to the appearance of the normal urethral orifice. At 3 months after operation, the maximal flow rates were (6.23 ± 0.54) mL/s in observation group and (5.44±0.92) mL/s in control group. There was significant difference in the maximum flow rate between 2 groups ( t=1.653, P=0.000). Conclusion: Cavernosum reduction technology being applied in the repair of moderate-severe hypospadias can reduce the probability of glans dehiscence, urethral fistula, urethrostenosis, and other postoperative complications, and improve the success and satisfaction of surgery.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the role of multiple dorsal midline plication (MDMP) procedure in correction of Donnahoo type Ⅲ chordee in postpubertal patient.Methods From September 2010 to July 2013,33 postpubertal patients with Donnahoo type Ⅲ chordee (＞ 20°) were treated with MDMP procedure.The age ranged from 18 to 37 years with an average of 29 years.Primary surgery was indicated in 18 patients including type Ⅲ chordee in 11 and type Ⅲ/Ⅳ in 7,with associated hypospadias in 12.Redo surgery was warranted in 15 patients including type Ⅲ chordee in 13 and type Ⅲ/Ⅳ in 2,with associated urethral defects necessitating repair in 12.Intraoperative artificial erection was induced to confirm the degree and length of chordee.Longitudinal plication sutures,4 dots each,were applied close to the midline in a parallel fashion on each apex of curvature,to achieve satisfactory orthoplasty with 16-dot to 64-dot plication according to the chordee status,and the urethral repair indicated was achieved simultaneously.Results Satisfactory orthoplasty was achieved with 16-dot plication in 16 patients,24-dot in 10,32-dot in 6,and 64-dot in 1 patient whose penile curvature was severe and long.Followup was obtained from 35 to 69 months with an average of 46 months.Three patients lost of followup.Urethroplasty-related complications were noted in 5 patients including urethrocutaneous fistula in 2,urethral dehiscence in 1,urethral diverticulum in 1,and urethral stricture in 1.Mild cicatrical curvature (less than 15 degree) was noted in 2 patients.No postoperative priapism,erectile dysfunction,and paraesthesia was noted,nor chordee recurrence.Conclusions When applied appropriately,MDMP is an effective procedure in correction of Donnahoo type Ⅲ chordee in postpubertal patient with good and long-standing orthoplasty.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics,diagnosis,differential diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of giant neurofibroma of penis in the child.Methods The clinical data including general data,imaging data,treatment methods,pathological characteristics of a case with giant neurofibroma of penis in a child were analyzed retrospectively and the relevant literature was reviewed.Results Gross appearance of the penile shaft neurofibroma was about 9 cm × 11 cm × 15 cm,with local ulceration.Computerized tomography scan revealed a giant mass in the penile shaft,about 9.0 cm × 10.0 cm × 13.4 cm.Partial excision of the penis was performed.Postoperative appearance of the residual penile shaft was about 2 cm long.The HE staining showed spindle cells with the red dye cytoplasm,spindle or elliptic nuclei and arranged in wavy partly.Positive immunostaining was presented with S-100 protein and Vimentin.The pathologic examination revealed a neurofibroma.There was no evidence of recurrence and the penis of the boy had normal sensation and erection by follow-up in 2 years.Conclusions Neurofibroma of penis in the child is extremely rare and the differential diagnosis of soft-tissue tumors of penis should be considered.The operative method should be individualized,the treatment goal is the complete resection;however,this goal must be weighed against detriment to functioning and the cosmetics of the involved organ.
