Objective To study the therapeutic effects of pedicled greater omentum displacement for complex posterior urethral stricture. Methods This study included 6 cases (all males) of complex posterior urethral stricture.Their age ranged from 14 to 45 years with a mean of 26 years.In these cases,traffic accident injury occurred in 5 and falling injury in 1.The course of diseases ranged from 6 months to 5 years with a mean of 2.5 years.The length of stricture segment was from 3.0 to 5.5 cm.All cases were surgically treated via transpubic approach and pedicled greater omentum displacement. Results Good operative results were achieved in all 6 cases.Each of them could urinate when the catheter was taken out 4 weeks later,and no urinary incontinence,urinary tract infection were observed.All were followed up for a median period of 26 months (ranged from 6 to 38 months).4 patients had normal micturition with no need of urethral dilatation and 2 patients reencountered dysuria in 3 months and were all cured by the administration of urethral dilatation for 3 to 24 months. Conclusions This procedure has a higher success rate.It is suitable for those with complicated posterior urethral stricture,such as longer posterior urethral stricture,urethra-rectal fistula, false passage, and especially those having experienced failure of urethra repair via perineal approach. It can be regarded as one of the ideal and effective therapeutic methods for complex posterior urethral stricture.

Objective To improve the differential diagnosis between benign renal mass and renal cell carcinoma(RCC) so as to lower the misdiagnosis rate. Methods This study included 12 cases of renal mass,whose age ranged from 35 to 69 years with a mean of 52 years.Among the 12 cases,flank pain occurned in 9,2 of whom had gross hematuria.Three clinically asymptomatic cases were detected incidentally by ultrasound in physical examination.All the 12 cases underwent imaging examinations such as B-ultrasound and CT scan,and all of them were preoperatively diagnosed as RCC. Results All the cases were surgically treated.Seven underwent enucleation or simple nephrectomy because of the diagnosis of benign renal mass by intraoperative frozen section.Five underwent radical nephrectomy.None developed recurrence during follow-up of 1 to 3 years. Conclusions Clinicians should not overestimate the diagnostic significance of imaging examinations such as CT and ultrasonography.For cases who have no definite diagnosis,surgical exploration can be performed.Intraoperative frozen section by pathologic study can increase correct diagnostic rate. Most of the misdiagnosed benign renal masses have different imaging features from those of RCC.

Objective To improve the prevention and treatment level of child traumatic posterior urethral stricture. Methods This series included 22 male children (mean age 9 years) with pelvic fracture complicated by posterior urethral disruption.A medical nylon string was indwelled after uretheral reunion operation.Urethral stricture recurred in 9 patients 3 months after the operation,and they were all cured by performance of urethra dilatation with self-designed single J tube under the guidance of the medical nylon string. Results All of the 9 were doing well during the operation.The medical nylon string was not taken out until dysuria disappeared completely.The cure rate was 100%.All the cases were followed up for a mean period of 15 months(range,3 to 24 months).All had normal urination. Conclusions Application of self-designed single J tube and medical nylon string is effective,simple and economical for the treatment of child traumatic posterior urethral stricture.It is easy both for the doctors' training and for the children's cooperation.Thus,it provides a new approach for the prevention and treatment of child traumatic posterior urethral stricture.

Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect of adenovirus-mediated herpes simplex virus-thymidine kinase (TK) gene combined with ?-IFN on renal clear-cell carcinoma. Methods: Adenovirus containing suicide gene TK, in combination with GCV or ?-IFN, was used to treat human renal clear-cell carcinoma cell line 786-0, and the in vitro cytotoxic effects against 786-0 were evaluated using MTT method. The subcutaneous transplantation model of 786-0 cells was established with nude mice. Adenovirus containing TK gene was injected intratumorally and the GCV (50 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally; ?-IFN (104 U/L) was injected intratumorally in combined therapy. The growth of tumors was observed after treatments. Results: The survival rate of 786-0 cells was (35.07?1.43)% in the TK+GCV+?-IFN group, (68.57?1.41)% in the TK+GCV group and (68.65?1.45)% in the ?-IFN group ( P=0.000). There was an obvious synergic effect between Ad-TK and ?-IFN in inhibiting 786-0 cells. Ad-TK combined with GCV and ?-IFN significantly suppressed the growth of 786-0 cells growth in nude mice model.Conclusion: Adenovirus-mediated TK plus prodrug GCV combined with ?-IFN has obvious therapeutic effect in treatment of human renal clear-cell carcinoma.
