Objective To investigate the effects of partial prostatic capsula and surrounding striated sphincter sparing surgery on the function of intestinal orthotopic neobladder. Methods Total cystectomy and orthotopic intestinal neobladder was performed in 23 male patients with invasive bladder cancer. The patients were divided into classical cystectomy group (n=10) and modified cystectomy group (n=13).In the classical group the prostate was removed completely and the residual urethra was anastomosed with the neobladder using interrupted suture.In the modified group transurethral resection of the prostate preceded the cystectomy,and the prostatic capsula below the verumontanum with its surrounding striated urethral sphincter was retained.The neobladder was anastomosed with the residual capsula using continuous suture.The function of the neobladder in the 2 groups was evaluated and compared. Results The pathological classification of the 23 patients was as follows:T 2aN 0M 0,13 cases;T 2bN 0M 0,6;T 1N 0M 0,1;T 3aN 0M 0,1;T 3bN 1M 0,1;T 4aN 0M 0,1.The patients were followed up for 3 to 40 months(mean,15.7 months).In modified group,11 patients survived disease-free and 2 survived with metastasis.All the 13 patients voided well with residual volume of 0 to 70 ml.Complete urinary continence was achieved in 12 patients and the remaining one had nocturnal incontinence.In classical group,10 patients survived disease-free;of them 7 voided well with residual volume of 10 to 100 ml and the other 3 needed intermittent catheterization because of their residual urine being up to 100 to 250 ml.Complete continence was achieved in 7 patients and the other 3 were incontinent(1 with incontinence day and night,2 with nocturnal incontinence). Conclusions Partial prostatic capsula and its surrounding striated sphincter sparing surgery can improve the continence and voiding of the orthotopic neobladder.$$$$

Objective:To discuss the causes and characteristics of drug-related problems(DRPs) of antiepileptic drugs by the in-vestigation of antiepileptic drugs' use in our hospital in order to provide reference for the rational clinical application of antiepileptic drugs. Methods:A retrospective analysis on 878 inpatients' records including antiepileptic drug application in our hospital from Janu-ary to December 2016 was carried out. The gender,age,etiology,application of antiepileptic drugs,usage,combination and adverse reactions were statistically analyzed in order to analyze the epidemiological characteristics of antiepileptic drugs in our hospital. At the same time,the necessity,safety and validity of the DRPs of antiepileptic drugs were studied by the international generic Spanish drug related research method(Granada-Ⅱclassification method). Results:Among the 878 cases,most were male patients(60.71%) and the proportion of patients over 50 years old was 69.02%. Patients with cerebrovascular diseases accounted for the most (323 cases, 36.79%),and 7 varieties of antiepileptic drugs were involved, and sodium valproate was with the largest proportion (489 cases, 51.75%). The DRPs were classified as DRP2(49 cases),DRP5(22 cases) and DRP6(8 cases). Conclusion:In view of the epi-demiological characteristics of antiepileptic drugs and DRPs specific issues in clinical applications, clinical pharmacists need to strengthen the intervention in DRPs of antiepileptic drugs in order to promote the safety and reasonability of clinical application.
