Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the short and long-term effect and explore the potential influential factors of focused ultrasound in the treatment of nonneoplastic epithelial disorders of vulva (NNEDV). Methods Clinical data of 583 patients suffering from NNEDV which was treated with focused ultrasound admitted from Jan. 2004 to Jun. 2014 to the hospital the authors served were collected. The treatment effects, complication rate, and potential influential factors were retrospectively analyzed. Results The total effective rate of focused ultrasound in treating NNEDV was 97.43%, the recurrence rate was 28.65%, and the complication rate was 9.09%. The effective rate was significantly increased after a course of strengthened treatment (P<0.05). The incidence of complications of CZF300 (high-power and short term model) treatment was significantly higher than that with CZF- 1(low-power and long term model, P<0.001). Conclusions A good clinical effect is predictable with focused ultrasound in the treatment of NNEDV. More promising results could be attained with multiple strengthened treatment, and a lower complication rate can be obtained with a low-power and long term treatment strategy.
