ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of postoperative no indwelling urethral catheters in lung operation. MethodsIn this prospective cohort study, we recruited 100 patients who were scheduled for pulmonary lobectomy under general anesthesia in a single institution of Thoracic Surgery Department in West China Hospital between April and December 2014. These patients were divided into two groups including a no indwelled urethral catheter group (NIUC, 50 patients) and an indwelled urethral catheter group (IUC, 50 patients). The clinical effect was compared between the two groups. ResultsThere was no statistical difference in incidence of postoperative urinary retention or urinary tract infection between the two groups (P=0.433, 0.050). However, the comfort degrees(0 degree) of patients in the NICU group was significantly higher than that of the ICU group with a statistical difference (P=0.002). While postoperative hospitalization time in the NICU group (P=0.023) was shorter than that in the ICU group (P=0.004). Prostatic hyperplasia was the high risk factor for the lung postoperative urinary retention (P=0.056). ConclusionPostoperative no indwelling urethral catheters in lung operation has the benefit of improving the comfort degrees of inpatients and increasing the postoperation urinary retention.

Methods: The data of patients with BPH treated with PKRP were retrospectively analyzed and the International Prostate Symptoms Scales (IPSS), maximum flow rate (Qmax) and Quality of Life (QOL) of patients with 12month followup were compared before and afteroperation and postoperation. Results: A total of 238 patients with BPH were enrolled from June 2006 to June 2008. The duration of the procedure was 70. 3 min (ranged from 30 min to 159 min) and the weight of dissected tissue was 54 g (ranged from 25 g to 127 g). No transurethral resection syndrome occurred. IPSS, Qmax and QOL were improved obviously after operation (Plt;0.05). Conclusion: PKRP is effective and safe.
Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of balloon dilatation in the treatment of lower urinary tract obstruction in children. Methods Twenty-six boys suffering from lower urinary tract obstruction underwent the balloon dilatation operation. These patients included 23 cases of posterior urethral valves, 2 cases of anterior urethral valves and 1 case of traumatic urinary tract stricture. Their ages ranged from 18 days to 7 years. All the patients were diagnosed by voiding cystourethrogram (VCG). Some of the boys suffered from bilateral hydronephrosis and dilated ureters. Before operation, the patients with urine retention or abnormal renal function should drain urine and correct the disorderof fluid and electrolyte. Balloon dilatation was done after their conditions were improved. During operation, ketamine anaesthesia was used, and 30% diatrizoate melglumine was used as dilatation drug. The balloon catheters which had the length of 4 cm and the diameters of 5，8，10 mm respectively were used for dilating the urethra. After operation, a Foley’s catheter was routinely indwelled. Results During procedure, compression phenomena disappeared in the course of operation. All the patients urinated normally after catheter was removed at 1 week post operatively. 6 cases received ureteral reimplantation to prevent vesioureteral reflux after 1 to 3 months. 25patients were followed up from 1 to 13 years and all patients had normal micturition and the bilateral hydronephrosis were improved. Conclusion Balloon dilatation is a safe, effective and feasible therapy for lower urinary tract obstruction in children.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of chemotherapeutics bladder irrigation (CBI) after transurethral resection (TR) in the treatment of cystitis glandularis (CG). Methods Databases including MEDLINE, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, VIP, CNKI and CBM were searched from January 2001 to November 2011 to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and case-control studies (CCSs) on pirarubicin or mitomycin bladder irrigation after TR in the treatment of CG. Two reviewers independently screened articles according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data and evaluated the quality of the included studies. Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.0. Results A total of 11 articles involving 5 RCTs and 6 CCSs were included. Among the total 1032 patients involved, 497 patients were in the control group treated by TR alone, while the other 535 patients were in the treatment group given CBI after RT. There were two subgroups, one involving 347 patients irrigated by pirarubicin in 7 studies, and the other involving 188 patients irrigated by mitomycin in 4 studies. The results of meta-analysis showed: (a) pirarubicin bladder irrigation after TR could increase both short-term and long-term cure rates and decrease both short-term and long-term relapse rates, but no significant differences were found in both short-term and long-term improvement rates, compared with the control group. As for the safety, pirarubicin was similar to the control group in the incidence of urinary irritation, but it was superior in the incidence of bloody urine; and (b) mitomycin bladder irrigation after TR could increase long-term cure rate and decrease long-term relapse rate, but no significant differences were found in short-term cure rate and short-term improvement rate, compared with the control group. Mitomycin was similar to the control group in incidence of urinary irritation and bloody urine. Sensitivity analyses indicated the outcomes regarding to some indexes in different studies were inconsistent. Conclusion Based on the current evidence, pirarubicin or mitomycin bladder irrigation after TR can increase long-term cure rate and decrease long-term relapse rate in treating CG, but pirarubicin tends to easily cause bloody urine. For the inconsistent outcomes of different studies, the results of this meta-analysis are instable and highly possible to be inconsistent to the future outcomes, hereby it is uncertain of the better effectiveness of CBI after, TR compared with TR alone, and more high-quality and large-scale RCTs are needed to be performed.
ObjectiveTo discuss the reoperation methods of urethral stricture after urethroplasty of hypospadias and their effectiveness.MethodsBetween September 2010 and April 2018, 169 patients with urethral stricture after urethroplasty of hypospadias, who underwent ineffective conservative treatments first, were accepted. The age ranged from 1 year and 7 months to 41years with a median age of 5 years and 8 months. The stricture located at the external urethral orifice in 80 cases, internal anastomosis connection in 87 cases, and constructed urethra in 2 cases. The symptoms of urethral stricture occurred at 2 weeks to 52 months after urethroplasty, with a median time of 4.5 months. The patients with external urethral orifice stenosis were treated with urethral meatus augmentation (74 cases) and urethral advancement (6 cases). The patients with internal anastomosis connection stenosis were treated with internal urethrotomy with urethroscopy (10 cases), urethrotomy and one-stage urethroplasty (26 cases), and urethrostomy (51 cases) including 43 cases of two-stage urethroplasty. The patients with constructed urethral stricture were treated with urethrolysis.ResultsOne hundred and fifty-four patients were followed up 6–86 months with an average of 47 months. The stenosis was relieved in 137 cases, and re-stenosis in 12 cases, urethral fistula in 4 cases, all of which were treated successfully. In addition, 1 case with mild urethral diverticulum did not need to be treated.ConclusionIf it is ineffective for the conservative treatment of urethral stricture after urethroplasty of hypospadias, appropriate surgical treatments could be selected according to the location and length of the stricture, local tissue conditions, complications, and so on.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of the inguinal approach versus classical pubic approach for obturator nerve block (ONB) in transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TUR-BT).MethodsDatabases including PubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, Web of Science, WanFang Data, CNKI and VIP databases were electronically searched to identify randomized controlled trials using ONB in TUR-BT from inception to May 2020. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed risk bias of included studies. Meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 14.2 software.ResultsA total of 7 studies involving 474 patients were included. The meta-analysis results showed that there was no significant difference between inguinal approach and pubic approach in terms of the ONB success rate (RR=1.06, 95%CI 0.96 to 1.17, P=0.23), while the one-time success rate of puncture of inguinal approach was higher than that of pubic approach (RR=1.47, 95%CI 1.01 to 2.15, P=0.04). Compared with the pubic approach, the overall complications of inguinal approach were lower (RR=0.24, 95%CI 0.08 to 0.71, P=0.01). However, no significant difference was found between the two groups in terms of subcutaneous hematoma (RR=0.46, 95%CI 0.08 to 2.66, P=0.38).ConclusionsThe current evidence indicates that the success rate of one puncture of inguinal approach is higher than that of pubic approach, and the overall complications of the inguinal approach are much lower than that of the pubic approach. However, the above conclusions are still required to be verified through more high-quality studies due to the limited quantity and quality of included studies.
One-hundred and thirty cases of hymenosis of female urethral orifice with anomalies from May, 1985 through October, 1990 were studied. The patients all received plastic reconstruction of the urethral orifice, and have been followed up for 3 months to 6 years with a cure and improvement rate of 92.1 percent. This anomaly is one of the important causes causing infection of the lower urinary tract. The mechanism of the pathology and the principles of treatment were discussed.
ObjectivesTo systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of 1 470 nm laser vaporization vs. transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).MethodsPubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and non-randomized controlled trials (non-RCTs) about the efficacy and safety of 1 470 nm laser vaporization vs. TURP for BPH from inception to October 22nd, 2018. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 6 RCTs and 4 non-RCTs were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: 1 470 nm laser vaporization was superior to TURP in reducing intraoperative bleeding (MD=?103.87, 95%CI ?148.08 to ?59.65, P<0.000 01), hospital stay (MD=?3.82, 95%CI ?4.35 to ?3.28, P<0.000 01), postoperative indwelling catheter time (MD=?2.24, 95%CI ?3.45 to ?1.02, P=0.000 3), postoperative hemoglobin (MD=?1.63, 95%CI ?3.14 to ?0.12, P=0.03) and rate of secondary hemorrhage (OR=0.13, 95%CI 0.03 to 0.48, P=0.002). There were no significant differences in operative time, bladder irrigation time, transient urinary incontinence and urethral stricture, IPSS Score and Qmax at 3 months after operation between the two groups (P>0.05).ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that 1 470 nm laser vaporization is superior to TURP in reducing intraoperative bleeding and secondary hemorrhage. It may be more suitable for prostate surgery in anticoagulant or coagulative dysfunction patients. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.
Objective To evaluate the effect of epristeride on gross hematuria secondary to transurethral resection of prostate (TURP). Methods A total of 50 patients with gross hematuria secondary to TURP were divided into two groups: 25 patients were treated with routine treatment plus 5 mg epristeride, twice a day for 3 months, while the other 25 only received routine treatment. Results At the 6-month follow-up visit, gross hematuria recurred in 63% of patients in the control group, but in only 30% of patients in the epristeride group. The difference was statistically significant (Plt;0.05). Moreover, the grade of gross hematuria was significantly lower in the epristeride group (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Epristeride appears to be effective in treating gross hematuria secondary to TURP.
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Methods China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chongqing VIP, Wanfang, SinoMed, PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library were searched from the establishment of databases until December 2023. All randomized controlled trials of TACE combined with TURBT for MIBC were collected and subjected to meta-analysis using RevMan 5.4 software. Results A total of 7 studies were included, involving 490 patients, with 246 in the TACE+TURBT group and 244 in the TURBT group. The meta-analysis results showed that compared with TURBT, TACE+TURBT had certain advantages in reducing recurrence rate [relative risk (RR)=0.49, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.35, 0.68)], improving survival rate [RR=1.16, 95%CI (1.07, 1.27)], shortening surgical time [standardized mean difference (SMD)=?4.97, 95%CI (?7.54, ?2.40)], reducing intraoperative bleeding [SMD=?4.19, 95%CI (?5.78, ?2.60)], and improving quality of life [SMD=4.51, 95%CI (2.15, 6.86)]. The adverse reactions of the two groups were similar. Conclusions Existing evidence suggests that TACE may reduce intraoperative bleeding and shorten surgical time to help achieve maximum TURBT. TACE combined with TURBT may be superior to simple TURBT in terms of tumor recurrence rate and survival rate. TACE combined with TURBT can benefit MIBC patients in bladder-preserving treatment plans.
