Objective To evaluate the sickle renal parenchyma incision for the removal of complex staghorn renal calculi. Methods Sickle parenchyma incision was used to remove stones in 37 patients with complex staghorn renal calculi.The procedure was as follows:the kidney was disected free and the pelvis within sinus renalis was isolated.Two rows of botton style sutures were made on the renal parenchyma with 2-0 plain catgut along mid-lower 1/3 of the dorsal surface of kidney free of vessels (Brodie's line) from the renal posterior lib to the plane of lower major calyx.The renal parenchyma was opened.Then,the incision was developed from the plane of lower major calyx through the middle major calyx to the plane of upper major calyx.The shape of this incision appeared like a sickle.The renal parenchyma and each calyx along this incision were opened and so was all the stones could then be easily removed.The calyces could well be observed. Results The calculi were completely removed in all the 37 cases.21 needed intraoperative blood transfusion and the mean amount of blood was 120 ml.KUB+IVU were normal 4 weeks postoperatively with improved hydronephrosis,no intrarenal stricture and void of residual calculi. Conclusions This procedure has the advantages of little intraoperative bleeding,slight impairment of renal function,high clearence rate and is indicated for the removal of any intrarenal pelvis complex staghorn calculi.

Objective To evaluate an ideal way to prepare the extracellular matrix of urethra. Methods An orthogonal design [L9(34)] was used in the experiment.Urethras were obtained from 37 rabbits,among which 27 segments were randomly selected and were decellularized following the orthogonal design in 9 groups.The whole experiments were repeated for 3 times.After the decellularization process,the acellularity of the ECM was examined by haematoxylin-eosin staining.The optimum way was found out through comparing the numbers of the remained cellular elements by computer image analysis.An ideal way was found by statistic analysis.Then the ECM was obtained from 10 pieces of urethras by the optimum methods.The scanning electronic microscopy was used to confirm the decellulary matrix.Subsequently,the ECM was used as a graft for replacement. In 10 rabbits,the urethral defect were replaced with the urethral ECMs. At sacrifice,10 days,3 weeks,6 weeks and 24 weeks,the grafts was taken out,and the regeneration was confirmed by the haematoxylin-eosin staining. Results ECM resulting from different dedellularization process in the urethras are different in the numbers of remaining cellular elements.There are no cellular elements in the 7th and the 9th group of the tissues.The cellular elements was not found by the scanning electronic microscopy in the ECM getting from the optimum methods.In the animals with replacement,histologic examination showed complete regeneration 24 weeks post operation. Conclusions The best way to prepare the ECM of urethra is A 3B 2C 3.

Objective To detect the mouse testicular gene expression pattern differences be-tween spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) proliferative and differential stages and study the molecular reg-ulation mechanism in SSC proliferation and differentiation. Methods With the interval of 24 days, male Kunming mice were injected intraperitoneally with two doses of busulfan (10 mg/kg) to establish spermatogenesis regeneration models. 36 k Mouse Genome Array was used to detect the differential gene expression profiles between the stages of SSC proliferation and differentiation. Bioinforrnsties analysis was conducted in GO (gene ontology) and KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Ge-nomes) pathway to describe the potential roles that may play in spermatogonial stern cells behavior regulation. Results Nine hundred and eleven differential expression genes were identified by gene arrays in mice testes, consisting of 608 up-regulated and 303 down-regulated in SSC proliferation stage and SSC differentiation stage. The differential expression genes were classified by their biological process, molecular function and cellular component, respectively. Alterations with statistical signifi-cance (P<0.05)appeared in 84 KEG(;signal pathways, including Notch and Wnt signaling pathways which had been proved to be important for stem cell maintenance. Fifty-six differential expression genes were selected as genes related to stem cells, among which 40 genes were up-regulated, including some stem cell biomarkers(such as Cd9, StraS, hgbl-, Oct4 and Thyl)and some growth factors(such as Fgf2, Pdgfa and Csfl). Conclustion The regulation of SSC proliferation and differentiation involves inmany differentially expressed genes in various signal pathways. This study provides a molecular basis for the elucidation of the molecular mechanism behind self-renewal and differentiation of spermatogonial stem cells.

Objective To explore the underlying clinical factors and precautionary measures of fluid extravasation in patients with calyceal calculi treated by ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy.Methods A retrospective review was made on clinical records of 138 patients with calyceal calculi receiving retrograde ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy from May 2005 to March 2009. The relevance was studied between the occurance of fluid extravasation complications and various clinical factors using x2 test and binary Logistic regression. The clinical factors included patients' sexes, age groups (<30 years, 30-50 years, >50 years), history of treatment (ESWL or open surgery) for upper urinary tract calculi, preoperative upper urinary tract infection, intraoperative placement of ureteral catheter and the length of procedure duration (< 50 min, 50-80 min, > 80 min). Results Fluid extravasation complications occurred in 24 patients. The sexes and age groups were irrelevant to the occurance of fluid extravasation complications; while history of ESWL or open surgery and preoperative infection in upper urinary tract, without intraoperative ureteral catheter placement and long duration of procedure were responsible for the higher rates of the fluid extravasation complications.Conclusion Reasonable selection of patients and timing of operation, regular intraoperative ureteral catheter placement and control the length of procedure duration help to reduce fluid extravasation during retrograde ureteroscopic lithotripsy.

BACKGROUND:The main way for long-segmental ureteral reconstruction may cause a lot of traumas and complications. Therefore, to seek a new repair method is urgent. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the feasibility of a tissue-engineered tubular graft for ureteral reconstruction. METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels and smooth muscle cels of rabbits were seeded into the two surfaces of bladder acelular matrix and cultivated for 7 days. Then the graft was used to prepare a 4-cm long tissue-engineered tubular graft, which was regarded as experimental group. Smooth muscle cels seeded onto the bladder acelular matrix was used to construct the tissue-engineered tubular graft as control group. Twenty-five New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group (n=20) and control group (n=5), and two kinds of tubular grafts covered with omentum were implanted into the two groups, respectively, for repair of ureteral defects. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunohistochemical detection were performed at 2, 4, 8 weeks after implantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the experimental group, hematoxylin-eosin staining showed epithelial coverage and muscle fibers on the lumen of tissue-engineered tubular grafts at 8 weeks after implantation; immunohistochemistry showed that anti-AE1/AE3 antibody and anti-uroplakinⅢa antibody were positive, confirming that there were mature epithelial cels on the lumen of tissue-engineered tubular grafts. In the control group, five rabbits were dead within 2 weeks after removal of ureteral scaffold, and autopsy showed scar formation inside the graft and severe hydronephrosis. These results demonstrate that it is feasible to construct the tissue-engineered tubular graft using bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels and smooth muscle cels into the bladder acelular matrix for ureteral reconstruction. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels can potentialy promote urothelial regeneration.
