Objective To evaluated the role of transurethral plasmakinetic resection of the prostate ( TUPKRP ) in combination with percutaneous bladder channel lithotripsy with holmium laser in the treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia ( BPH) and bladder stone in senior patients . Methods Seventy-three patients treated during January 2009 to May 2014 were retrospectively reviewed.The patients aged 70-95 years old (mean, 85.6 years old).All of the patients were complicated with one or more diseases of the cardiovascular system .Ultrasound examinations prior to operation showed the sizes of prostates ranging 35-105 g, among which 58 cases showed middle prostatic lobe protruding into the bladder cavity .The sizes of the bladder stones ranged 1.5 -4.5 cm. Results The operations were successful in all the cases .The time of lithotripsy ranged 15-50 min (mean, 24 min), and the time of prostatectomy ranged 40 -135 min (mean, 70 min).No severe complications, such as major bleeding, transurethral resection syndrome, bladder perforation, residual stones, or severe infections, were observed.The urethral catheters were removed 3-5 days after operation, without urine leakage, dysuria, or urinary incontinence.Post-operation pathology of all the cases revealed BPH .The duration of hospitalization was 5-10 d (mean, 6 d).Three months after operation, the international prostate symptom scores were decreased from (23.5 ±5.1) points to (7.5 ±1.6) points (P<0.05), the quality of life (QOL) scores were decreased from (5.1 ± 0.5) points to (2.2 ±0.8) poins (P<0.05), the maximum flow rates (Qmax) were increased from (6.2 ±2.4) ml/s to (17.9 ± 4.2) ml/s (P<0.05), and residual urine volumes were decreased from (185.6 ±29.7) ml to (30.0 ±21.2) ml (P<0.05). Conclusion Transurethral plasmakinetic resection of the prostate in combination with percutaneous bladder channel lithotripsy with holmium laser is safe and effective for the treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia and bladder stone in senior patients .

Up to now, advantages and disadvantages in the treatment of hypertensive middle_ and large_amount cerebral hemorrhage (HMLCH) by western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine,or by medical treatment or surgical treatment still exist. Mortality and disablement rate remain high. Western medicine combined with Chinese herbal medicine shows better effect in treating HMLCH, but the related research is preliminary. Therefore, thoughts of establishing comprehensive therapeutic protocols for HMLCH are presented as follows. Western medicine combined with Chinese herbal medicine is the fundamental therapeutic principle. Proper surgical operation should be employed promptly to clear away hemotoma and relieve the symptoms first according to the situation of the patient, hospital and the surgeon. Clearing heat and calming the liver, removing blood stasis and phlegm, relaxing the bowels and restoring consciousness are the fundamental therapeutic methods for HMLCH with yang_excess syndrome, and reinforcing Qi and activating blood circulation, removing phlegm and dredging channels, relaxing the bowels and restoring consciousness for yin_excess syndrome. Routine treatment and symptomatic treatment also should be taken into account.

Objective To explore the effect of great saphenous vein interruption on distally saphenous neurocutaneous pedicled skin flap. Methods Fifty-two patients with skin and soft tissue lost on ankle received neoplasty using distally crural saphenous neurocutaneous pedicled skin flap. The patients were divided into two groups: the patients in interruption group (25 patients) were treated with great saphenous vein interruption on distally saphenous neurocutaneous pedicled skin flap, the patients in conventional group (27 cases) were treated without saphenous vein interruption. Results Primary healing: 15 patients (55.56%, 15/27) in conventional group, 21 patients (84.00%,21/25) in interruption group. With effusion: 17 patients (62.96%,17/27) in conventional group, 7 patients(28.00%,7/25) in interruption group. With venous crisis: 10 patients (37.04%,10/27) in conventional group, 2 patients (8.00%,2/25) in interruption group. There was statistical significance between two groups on the above 3 indexes (P <0.05). With infection: 7 patients (25.93%,7/27) in conventional group; 4 patients(16.00%,4/25) in interruption group. There was no statistical significance between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Great saphenous vein interruption could relieve swelling, reduce effusion and have higher primary healing rate in neoplasty using distally crural saphenous neurocutaneous pedicled skin flap compared with the conventional method, which greatly reduce the pain and medical expenses of the patients.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of management of kidney calculi in non-uronephrosis by percutaneous nephrolithotripsy (PCNL) under ultrasound guidance. Methods From July 2005 to June 2008, 97 cases of kidney calculi in non-uronephrosis were performed by percutaneous nephrolithotripsy. A tube was first inserted into the pelvis through cystoscope, and saline was instilled to dilate collecting system. Antegrade percutaneous access was obtained under ultrasound guidance. A combination of pneumatic and ultrasonic lithotrite was used to disintegrate and remove stone under direct vision. Clinical data including operation time, complications and stone free rate were analyzed retrospectively. Results The perutaneous renal access was successfully established under ultrasound guidance in all patients, immediate phase Ⅰ lithotripsy was performed in 95 cases and delayed phase Ⅱ lithotripsy in 2 cases. Operation time was 70-180 min, average time was (96±23 ) min. The average blood loss was 60 ml (20-500 ml), 4 cases had transfusion during the PCNL and average 400 ml. Minor pyrexia ( < 39℃) was seen in 24 cases,whereas serious pyrexia was noted in 3 cases. Conservatively administered with appropriate antibiotics, the fever disapeared in 27 cases within 5 days postoperatively. Severe complications did not occur during nephrolithotripsy. Stones were cleared completely in 78 out of 97 cases (80.4%)during immediate phase Ⅰ lithotripsy, residual stone fragment was found in 19 cases. Conclusion The management of kidney calculi in non-uronephrosis by PCNL appears to be efficacious and safe under ultrasound guidance.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the composition characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes in patients with acute ischemic stroke of yin or yang syndrome by investigating the characteristics of TCM syndromes at different periods after onset. METHODS: One thousand two hundred and forty-six patients with acute ischemic stroke were admitted in twenty hospitals. According to the "diagnostic criteria of syndrome differentiation of stroke", the characteristics of syndromes in the patients were investigated at the periods of 1-3 days, 4-10 days and 11-30 days after they had ischemic stroke. General distribution of six basic syndromes was compared between the patients with yin syndrome and the patients with yang syndrome at the three periods. The six basic syndromes were wind syndrome, pathogenic fire syndrome, phlegm syndrome, blood stasis syndrome, qi deficiency syndrome, and syndrome of yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity. RESULTS: The percentages of wind, pathogenic fire, and phlegm syndromes in the patients were decreased at the period of 11-30 days as compared with the period of 1-3 days (87.1% vs 79.3%, 52.1% vs 38.7% and 67.1% vs 57.4% respectively, P<0.01). However, the percentages of the syndromes of blood stasis, qi deficiency, and yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity were similar at the three periods (P>0.05). There were no differences in the distribution of yin and yang syndromes among the three periods (P>0.05). The percentages of syndromes of wind, pathogenic fire, phlegm, and yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity were higher (P<0.01), and the percentages of syndromes of blood stasis and qi deficiency were lower (P<0.05, P<0.01) in patients with yang syndrome than in patients with yin syndrome. The complex of three syndromes was the most frequent composition pattern in the patients at the three periods. The percentages of complex syndromes of four or five syndromes were higher, and the percentages of single-syndromes and complex syndromes of two syndromes were lower in patients with yang syndrome than in patients with yin syndrome (P<0.05, P<0.01). The most frequent complex syndromes in patients with yin syndrome were complex syndrome of wind, phlegm, blood stasis and qi deficiency, and complex syndrome of wind, phlegm and qi deficiency; while the most frequent complex syndromes in patients with yang syndrome were complex syndrome of wind, pathogenic fire, phlegm and qi deficiency, and complex syndrome of wind, pathogenic fire and phlegm. CONCLUSION: The main discrimination between the yin and yang syndromes is that the yang syndrome is characterized by pathogenic fire. The syndromes of phlegm, qi deficiency, and blood stasis are not associated with the diagnosis of yin or yang syndrome.

Objective To investigate the effect of free transplantation of fibula composite tissue flap to the repair of forearm bone and soft tissue serious defect.Methods Eleven cases of reparing forearm bone and soft tissue serious defect through transplantation of free fibula composite tissue petal were applied from March 2004 to February 2011.The length of transplanted fibula composite tissue flap was 8-14 cm ; the flap area was 5 cm ×8 cm-20 cm ×20 cm.The curing situation on bone fracture was observed in 3,6 and 12 months after the surgical opration and the function of defected arm was evaluated in 1 year after surgical operation.Results All of 11 cases of fibula composite tissue flap were survived.The observation was undertaken for more than 12 months after the operation and the fracture section occured the characteristics of healing up in 3 months and fibula and arm bone occured well healed up in half a year; It scored 22.9 according to Enneking system after 1 year of the operation.The function of forearm rotation were classed as this:3 good cases,6 medium cases and 2 poor cases.In the 2 sural nerve bridging transplantation cases,one case was repaired of radial nerve inside static's two-point discrimination (s2PD) to 9 mm,another case was repaired of ulnar nerve distal volar little finger s2PD to 15 mm.All the cases could achieve making a fist with thumb and a thumb could be oppoiste to other 4 fingers,and the ankle joint movement was normal.Conclusion Transplantion of free fibula composite tissue flap to the repair of forearm bone and soft tissue serious defect is an ideal surgical operation method.
