Objective To evaluate the preoperative diagnosis of ureteral carcinoma.Methods The clinical features and selection of imaging and endoscope in 32 ureteral carcinoma patients were analyzed.Results The common symptom was hematuria.32 cases were confirmed by pathological examination as ureteral carcinoma and the diagnostic corresponding rate was 100% by color doppler and endoscopic technique.Conclusion Imaging and endoscopic examination are very important in hematuria patients without unknown reasons.Ureteral carcinoma should be considered when B mode ultrasound and venous urography show hydronephrosis and no development.Retrograde ureteropyelography and ureteroscopy are the most important diagnostic methods among various examinations.

Objective To investigate the relationship between benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) andchronic prostatitis(CP). Methods Three hundred BPH patients were studied, aged from 51 to 96 (aver-age 72). All patients were divided into 3 groups (Ⅰ°、Ⅱ°and Ⅲ°)according to result of digital rectal examina-tion, which include 85 cases , 139 cases and 76 cases respectively. The incidence of CP among 3 groups were compared and analyzed. Results Two hundreds and thirty-five of the 300 cases with BPH were accompa-nied with CP(77.7%). Among the 233 cases, 53 cases were in Ⅰ degree BPH group (53 / 85, 62.4% ), 113 cases were in Ⅱ degree BPH group (113/139, 81.3%), 67 cases were in Ⅲ degree BPH group (67/76, 88.2%). Conclusions Many BPH patients were accompanied by CP. The prostate size and the inflamma-tion of prostate were positive correlated. The effect of anti-inflammatory treatment in Ⅰ degree and Ⅱ degreeBPH patients was better than Ⅲ degree BPH patients.
