Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of modified vaginal paravaginal repair (VPVR) in treatment of symptomatic paravaginal defect cystocele(PDCC). Methods This study was an observational case series of 52 consecutive women in Beijing hospital from January 2007 to August 2009, with symptomatic paravaginal defect cystocele. Among them, 6 patients had anterior wall colporrhaphy. Preoperative and postoperative pelvic evaluations were performed with the POP-Q system. All the cases underwent vaginal approach to paravaginal repair, 49 cases underwent vaginal hysterectomy simultaneously. Patients were followed up for 1 to 24 months. Criteria for objective cure were defined as the anterior vaginal walls at grade 0 and firmly apposing to the lateral pelvic sidewalls.Results Of the 52 patients, 30 had grade Ⅱ , 17 had grade Ⅲ, and 5 had grade Ⅳ paravaginal defect cystocele. In all patients the VPVR was performed successfully. No complication happened during and after operation. The average operation time was (65 ±18) min (45-110 min) and estimated blood loss was (95 ± 27) ml (50-200 ml). Patients were followed up postoperatively for 3 to 24months, with a mean of (10. 1±3.1) months. The PDCC recurred in 6 cases, 5 patients had grade Ⅰcystocele and 1 had grade Ⅲ cystocele. Conclusions The vaginal approach to the correction of paravaginal defect cystocele is highly effective in our population.

Objective To document peritoneal tuberculosis mimicking ovarian malignancy in elderly post-menopausal women and to review pertinent literature.Methods The records of 3 women with peritoneal tuberculosis who were managed at Beijing Hospital from January 2003 to September 2009 were reviewed.Results Three patients with peritoneal tuberculosis mimicking ovarian malignancy all presented with the classical symptoms of advanced-stage ovarian carcinoma,including ascites,abdominopelvic masses,elevated serum CA125,bloating and progressive emaciation.Two patients received laparotomy revealing peritoneal tuberculosis but no malignancy.All the patients were treated with anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy.Conclusions Medical awareness of peritoneal tuberculosis is still lacking and many women with this disease are initially thought to have ovarian malignancy and undergo unnecessary extended surgery.Laparoscopy including biopsies seems to be a sufficient and safe method to provide diagnosis of peritoneal tuberculosis.If laparoscopy is not feasible,laparotomy should be performed.Ascites and high level of CA125 do not necessarily indicate that the clinical picture is malignant in post-menopausal women.

Objective To study laparoscopic pelvic lymphyectomy combined with vaginal hystectomy in the treatment of patients with stage Ⅰ endometrial carcinoma.Methods The data of 77 patients with stage Ⅰ endometrial carcinoma were reviewed retrospectively. These patients divided into the laparoscopic group and abdominal group according to the operation style. The operation time, blood loss, postoperation complication, rehabilition of the digestion tract, satisfaction degree to the operation of two groups were compared.Results There was no serious complications in the both groups. In the laparoscopic group, the operation time was longer than the abdominal group ( P<0.01), but so far as to the blood loss, the time of rehabilition of the digestion tract, the number of lymphyectomy, the postoperation pain alleviation and the degree of postoperation depression were superior to the abdominal group ( P<0.01).Conclusion Though the Laparoscopic operation takes longer time than the abdominal operation, it has much more advantage: mimimal blood loss, minimal abdominal scar, rapid postoperation rehabilition, much better pain alleviate, less urine retention.

Objective To compare the efficacy of laryngeal mask airway Guardian (GLMA) and laryngeal mask airway Supreme (SLMA) in patients undergoing gynecological surgery. Methods One hundred and twenty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 19-80 yr weighing 50-70 kg undergoing gynecological surgery were randomly divided into 2 groups: SLMA group (group S, n = 59) and GLMA group (group G, n =61). LMA was inserted after induction of anesthesia with propofol 2.0-2.5 mg/kg, sufentanil 0.2 μg/kg and rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg. All the patients were mechanically ventilated. BP, HR, SpO2, PETCO2 and Ppeak were monitored during operation. The rate of successful placement, placement time, fiberoptic bronchoscope grade, airway sealing pressure, airway pressure during normal ventilation with tidal volume of 8 ml/kg, airway pressure and air leakage during ventilation with large tidal volume of 20 ml/kg, air leakage during opertion, complications, anesthesia time, duration of surgery, extubation time and emergence time were recorded. Results There was no significant difference in the rate of successful placement, placement time, airway pressure during normal ventilation and during ventilation with large tidal volume, blood stain at LMA removal, incidence of sore throat, choking hoarseness and dysphagia, anesthesia time, duration of surgery, extubation time, and emergence time between the two groups (P < 0.05). The BP,HR, SpO2, Ppeak and PETCO2 were within the normal range during operation in both groups. The fiberoptic bronchoscope grade and airway sealing pressure were significantly higher, and the incidence of air leakage during ventilation with large tidal volume and during operation was significantly lower in group G than in group S (P < 0.01).Conclusion GLMA and SLMA can provide adequate ventilation during operation with fewer complications and can be used effectively for gynecological surgery. The efficacy of GLMA is better.

Objective To explore the characteristics of endometrial lesions and uterine cavity abnormality by transvaginal sonography(TVS)and the potential impact of aging on those. Methods 1052 elderly women(aged ≥60 years)underwent hysteroscopy endometrial curettage based on TVS providing an indication of abnormal uterine cavity at our hospital from January 2010 to December 2017 ,and their clinical and pathological data were analyzed.1052 patients were divided by age into a <65 years group and a ≥65 years group. And age tertile stratifications of lower tertile group ,middle tertile group ,and upper tertile group were used to investigate the correlation between ageing and endometirum diseases. Results A total of 1052 elderly women were included ,and the simple endometrial thickening was the most common etiological factor (53.2% ) ,followed by abnormal endometrial echoes(36.9% )and endometrial cavity fluid(9.9% ).All the pathological results of polyps and endometrial cancer accounted for 57.8% and 4.2% ,respectively.Age tertile stratification analysis suggested that the proportions of endometrial cavity fluid was 6.1% (n=20)in the lower tertile group , 5.9% (n=20)in the middle tertile group ,and 16.7% (n=64)in the upper tertile group(χ2 =23.40 ,P<0.01). An increasing proportion along with aging for precancerous lesions was 0.0% (n=0) ,2.4%(n= 8) ,3.1% (n = 12)(χ2 = 9.04 ,P < 0.01)in lower/middle/upper age tertile groups.But the proportion of endometrial cancer was decreased with ageing [lower/middle/upper tertiles :6.1% (n=20) ,4.7% (n=16) ,2.1% (n=8)(χ2 =7.23 ,P<0.01]. Conclusions TVS is an effective methodfor screening uterine cavity lesions in elderly women. The TVS-detected prevalence of endometrial cavity fluid increases with ageing. The hysteroscopy endometrial pathological examination shows that endometrial cancer decreases and precancerous lesions increase with ageing.
