RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Insertion of a catheter into the bladder is a rare complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD), and is mainly related to surgical injury. This paper reports a case of bladder perforation that was caused by percutaneous PD catheterization. CASE SUMMARY: A 64-year-old man underwent percutaneous PD catheterization for end-stage renal disease. On the second day after the operation, urgent urination and gross hematuria occurred. Urinalysis showed the presence of red and white blood cells. Empirical anti-infective treatment was given. On the third day after the operation, urgent urination occurred during PD perfusion. Ultrasound showed that the PD catheter was located in the bladder, and subsequent computed tomography (CT) showed that the PD catheter moved through the anterior wall into the bladder. The PD catheter was withdrawn from the bladder and catheterization was retained. Repeat CT on the fourth day after the operation showed that the PD catheter was removed from the bladder, but there was poor catheter function. The PD catheter was removed and the patient was changed to hemodialysis. CT cystography showed that the bladder healed well and the patient was discharged 14 d after the operation. CONCLUSION: Bladder perforation injury should be considered and treated timeously in case of bladder irritation during and after percutaneous PD catheterization. The use of Doppler ultrasound and other related technologies may reduce the incidence of such complications.
RESUMEN
Colorectal carcinoma is currently the third most frequent cancer worldwide. Conventional open surgery was replaced by laparoscopic anterior resection with total mesorectal excision for the treatment of sigmoid and rectal carcinomas; however, it needed an incision to harvest the specimen, which contributed to complications. In 2013, trans-anal natural orifice specimen extraction laparoscopic anterior resection (Ta-NOSE-LAR) to treat sigmoid and rectal carcinoma was performed in our hospital for the first time. The aim of this study was to investigate the outcomes of Ta-NOSE-LAR in sigmoid and rectal carcinoma.Seventy-three patients diagnosed with sigmoid and rectal carcinoma were enrolled between September 2013 and June 2016. Thirty-five patients underwent Ta-NOSE-LAR, whereas the others underwent traditional laparoscopic anterior resection (LAR). We compared the operative data, postoperative complications, pathological evaluation results, and incision-related complications between the 2 groups.Our result showed that the operative time, specimen length, tumor size, amount of total lymph nodes, and lymph node metastasis between the 2 groups were not statistically different. Further, without abdominal scaring for harvesting the specimen, the operative blood loss (49.29â±â14.63 vs 69.29â±â13.54âmL, Pâ<â.001) and post-operation hospital stay (5.77â±â0.94 vs 6.76â±â0.75 days, Pâ<â.001) of the Ta-NOSE-LAR group were less than those of the LAR group. Besides, the follow-up data showed that 2 patients were lost to follow-up, and 1 patient had liver metastasis 2 years after surgery in the LAR group, whereas the others showed no regional recurrence, distant metastases, or critical complications.Ta-NOSE-LAR is a valuable and alternative surgical method to treat sigmoid and rectal carcinoma, with the advantages of being a scarless procedure and having a lower post-operation hospital stay duration.
