ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a modified transvesical obturator nerve block (ONB) in the prevention of obturator nerve reflex and consecutive bladder perforations (BPs) during transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBTs). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis of all patients resected in 2014-2015 due to a bladder tumor of the lateral walls, including a follow-up period until December 2018, was performed. Two groups were defined: in the first group, all patients underwent TURBT with a modified transvesical ONB. The second group underwent conventional TURBT with intermittent resection. Primary endpoints were the rates of adductor contractions and BPs. RESULTS: Ninety-four out of 1,145 resected patients presented with tumors on the lateral wall of the bladder and a complete dataset including a long-term follow-up. Thirty-six patients were treated in the ONB group, and 58 patients comprised the control group. The median age in the 2 groups was 70.8 and 71.8 years in the first and second groups, respectively. Adductor spasms were reported in 8.33 versus 25.86% (p = 0.057) and perforation in 2.78 versus 17.24% (p = 0.047) in groups 1 and 2, respectively. After a median follow-up of 32.5 months, there was no significant difference in recurrence rates (52.78 vs. 51.72%, p = 0.672). In a subgroup analysis, lower perforation rates were recorded for the ONB group in patients with tumors <3 cm (0/30 vs. 8/46, p = 0.076) and in patients with unifocal tumors (0/12 vs. 5/23, p = 0.141). DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION: The simplified approach of transvesical ONB demonstrated in this study appears to be an inexpensive, safe, effective, and simple-to-use technique.

ABSTRACT

Rosacea - manifestations and treatment options Abstract. Rosacea is a common dermatosis of the face with a prevalence of up to 22 %, according to the current literature. The known trigger factors include caffeine, alcohol, sunlight, hot and spicy foods, psychological stress, menstruation and extreme temperatures or temperature fluctuations. Diagnosis is most often clinical, however, due to the numerous differential diagnoses, performing a biopsy may be helpful in atypical manifestations. Depending on the symptoms, in addition to the avoidance of trigger factors, physical therapeutic options as well as topical and systemic drugs are available.
