Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of application of anterograde flexible ureteroscope in the treatment of ureterointestinal anastomotic strictures in patients after Bricker urinary diversion. Methods From March 2009 to July 2012, 6 patients with ureterointestinal anastomotic strictures after Bricker procedure were enrolled in this study. The average age of the patients was (61 ±7) years old. The first clinical presentation was averagely (6.3 ±2.5) months after the Bricker procedure. There were 4 cases with left side strictures and 2 cases with right side ones. The urinary tract ultrasound, CT, KUB+IVP and antegrade urography were carried out to identify the obstructive portion. The mean length of stricture was 0.9cm (0.4~2.5) . First, all patients underwent percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN), then inside incision by Holmium:YAG laser under anterograde flexible ureteroscopy and lithotripsy (with calculi) . The F6 double J ureteral stent was indwelled for 12 weeks. KUB+IVP was performed after removal of double J ureteral stents. Results The mean operative time was (53±8) min. The mean hospital stay was (5.5±2) days. The blood loss was 3~6 mL. The average follow-up was 18 months (6~30) . No recurrence was found in 5 patients. One case had recurrent stricture after the first procedure, which was successfully managed by the flexible ureteroscopy again and replacing double J ureteral stent every 12 months. Conclusion The inside incision by anterograde flexible ureteroscopic Holmium:YAG laser is safe and effective for ureterointestinal anastomotic strictures in patients after Bricker urinary diversion, with less complications.

Objective To observe the regulative effect of high dose of glucocorticoid (GC) on protein synthesis and mRNA transcription of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) in paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (PVN) so to ascertain whether there exists difference upon effect of GC either at high dose or at normal dose. Methods A total of 60 Wistar rats were divided into five groups, ie, blank control group, 10 -6 mol/L dexamethasone (DEX) group, 10 -9 mol/L DEX group, 9 g/L saline group and group that was treated with 10 -4 mol/L RU486 first and then with 10 -6 mol/L DEX. The drugs were given through femoral vein. CRH protein expression was measured by means of immunohistochemistry and laser confocal scanning microscophy (LCSM); CRH mRNA transcription level was investigated by in situ hybridization. Results There appeared positive CRH mRNA granules in cytoplasm of PVN after administration with 10 -6 mol/L DEX for 20 minutes but could be seen positive fluorescent granules of CRH protein 30 minutes later, which was reversed at an in advance blockage of GR, as was free in 10 -9 mol/L DEX group, 9 g/L saline group and blank control group. Conclusions High dose of GC can up regulate CRH gene expression in PVN and differs much from the traditional effect of GC at normal dose, as may be due to that high dose of GC exerts effects depending on membrane glucocorticoid receptor but normal dose of GC dose via iGR.
