Objective To evaluate the abilities of plasma perfusion and plasma exchange to remove blood endotoxin and cytokines from hepatic failure patients. Methods Plasma perfusion and plasma exchange were performed on 7 cases and 10 cases for the treatment of chronic severe hepatitis, respectively. Changes of blood endotoxin and cytokines before and after treatment were analyzed. Results The levels of cytokines and endotoxin in patient blood decreased greatly, but bilirubin decreased slightly after treatment with plasma perfusion. The changes of interleukin 6 were very limited. Compared with plasma perfusion, the removal of bilirubin was higher but that of cytokines was lower after plasma exchange. Conclusion Plasma perfusion can remove cytokines with high efficiency and retard the development of hepatic failure.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transurethral frontfiring photoselective vaporesection for the treatment of cystitis glandularis,by comparing with the transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection.Methods From January 2014 to July 2016,41 patients with pathologically diagnosed cystitis glandularis in our hospital,were divided into two groups,including 22 cases underwent transurethral frontfiring photoselective vaporesection(the observation group),and the other 19 cases underwent transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection(the control group).All patients were regularly treated with postoperative intravesical instillation chemotherapy with pirarubicin.The clinical data of two groups were statistically analyzed to compare the differences of the safety and efficacy.Results All the surgeries were performed successfully.There were no statistical significances in perioperative data,the operation time,the decreased concentration of hemoglobin(Hb)and Na+,operative related complications, indwelling catheter duration and hospitalization duration between the two groups.The first-time cure rate and the effective rate of transurethral frontfiring photoselective vaporesection showed significantly better than those of transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection(P<0.05 for each).Conclusion Comparing the traditional transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection for the treatment of cystitis glandularis,tansurethral frontfiring photoselective vaporesection with postoperative intravesical instillation chemotherapy with pirarubicin,is a safer,simpler,and more effective method,which could be a new optional method in the conditional hospitals,deserving the worthy of clinical popularization.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of tip-flexible ureterorenoscope (tf-URS) with holmium laser for one-stage management of parapelvic cyst.Methods The clinical data of 26 patients treated with tf-URS incision and drainage using holmium laser from February 2016 to August 2018 were reviewed.The study were including 15 male and 11 female patients,ranging from 32 to 68 years old,with an average of 53.5 years old.There were 24 cases of unilateral single renal parapelvic cyst and 2 cases of bilateral single renal parapelvic cyst.There were 4 cases in 26 cases with unilateral single renal parapelvic cyst and contralateral single renal cyst,2 cases with unilateral single renal parapelvic cyst and ipsilateral kidney of stones.The diameter of parapelvic cyst was 3.4-5.6 cm,average 4.8 cm.All patients had undergone holmium laser endo-decortication of parapelvic cyst by tf-URS.With general anesthesia,tf-URS accessed pelvis retrogradely and decorticated parapelvic cyst with 200 μm Holium laser to drainage the cyst to pelvis.If the tf-URS was not placed successfully for the first time,Double-J tubes were retained for 1-2 weeks before treatment.The operative time,hospitalization time,blood loss,postoperative complications and clinical symptoms were collected and analyzed.Results The one-time access success rate of insertion of ff-URS was 88.5％ (23/26).All operations were successful without severe complications.The average time of operation was 17.2 min,ranging from 11 to 25 min.In 3-30 months follow-up,the cysts disappeared in 22 patients and reduced by more than one half in 1 patients.Flank pain relieved in 19 patients.Conclusions Holmium laser endo-decortication of parapelvic cyst by tf-URS could be a simple,minimally invasive,safe and effective method for parapelvic cyst,which is worthy of further promotion and application in clinical practice.
