Clinical report of 18 cases of preventing hematuria by tube flushing in donor duodenum after combine pancreas-kidney transplantation / 中华器官移植杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of tube flushing in donor duodenum to prevent the hematuria post combined pancreas-kidney transplantation(SPK)with pancreatic fluid drainage through bladder.Methods 18 cases of diabetic patients associated with end-stage renal disease were subjected to combined pancreas-kidney transplantation with pancreatic fluid drainage through bladder,within which 12 cases were pre-placed douche tube in donor duodenum,while the other six were not.As for the cases in group with the tube,T tube of No.10 was put in the donor duodenum through the abdominal wall and then bladder.After that the tube was fixed using 5-0 absorbable suture,then the bladder sutured if the tube was smooth confirmed by flushing with saline.After the operation,flushing was maintained using saline consecutively with the speed of 500 ml/h through the douche tubes of these 12 patients.Then the speed was changed to 250 ml/h 3 days later if the flushing fluid was limpid.One week later,changed to rinse intermittently and prolonged the flushing interval gradually.Till 14 days post the operation,flushing was ceased.After 2 days' survey,the urethral catheter was removed.As for the other 6 cases without douche tube,the urethral catheter was removed during 7-10 days after the operation if hematuria didn't occur.Results In the 12 cases with douche tube,there was only one patient(8.3 %,1/12)having slight hematuria on the 7th day after the cessation of the bladder washout.Through strengthening the flushing,the hematuria disappeared.The urethral catheter was removed on the 14th day after the operation and the hematuria never happened again.In the group without the douche tube,4 cases(66.7 %,4/6)had serious hematuria complicated with bladder obturation.The incidence of that was obviously higher than in the group with the douche tube(P＜0.05).Only one patient(1/12,8.3%)in the group of regular insertion of douche tube had urinary system infection,but in the group without the tube,the incidence of urinary system infection was 66.7 %(4/6)(P＜0.05).Conclusion The tube flushing in donor duodenum can significantly reduce the occurrence of hematuria after combined pancreas-kidney transplantation with pancreatic fluid drainage through bladder.
