Objective To determine whether a prophylactic tolterodine administration before surgical operation on non-urologic patients under general aneathesia can prevent the occurrence of catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) ; and to assess patients’ tolerance to the symptoms as well as the impact on related consultation work of urologic surgeons.Methods One hundred and eighty cases of non-urology patients who need general aneathesia operations were divided into 2 groups:90 cases in tolterodine group and 90 in control group.The assessment of CRBD is categorized into 4 steps and statistics for adverse events ( dry mouth,dizzyness and facial flushing) was also conducted.A record of the patients’ needs for urologic surgical consultation during their reservation of catheter was also kept.SPSS 13.0 used in the statistical analysis of data in terms of X2 examination,where the divergence P ＜ 0.05 was regarded statisticly valid.Results 82 cases were followed up in the tolterodine group with a 24.4％ CRBD occurrence,which included 7.2％ shows moderate and severe symptoms,and there were also 23 cases with dry mouth ( 28.0％ ),4 cases with dizzyness (4.8％),13 cases with facial flussing ( 15.8％ ),and 1 case who needs further consultation (1.2％).In the 86 followed-up cases in control group,CRBD occurance rate was 54.7％,with 30.2％ showed moderate and severe symptoms,plus 2 cases suffered from severe consequences.Nine cases ( 10.5％) in control group requires further consultation ( X2 =19.499,P =0.000 ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions A prophylactic tolterodine administration before surgery to the patients underwent general aneathesia can prevent the occurrence ofcatheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) and reduce the consultation work of urologic surgeons.Patients using tolterodine show a higher rate of adverse events,yet to which most patients can tolerate.

The Leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains-2 (LRIG2) gene expression in pituitary adenoma and its correlation with tumor invasiveness were studied. The expression of LRIG2 mRNA and protein in human pituitary adenoma obtained surgically was detected by RT-PCR (39 cases) and immunohistochemical staining (30 cases). It was found that LRIG2 was mostly localized at the nucleus of the pituitary adenoma cells. Its expression was significantly higher in the invasive cases than in the non-invasive cases. LRIG2 protein was positive in 14 cases out of 21 cases of invasive adenoma, but only 2 cases were positive in 9 cases of non-invasive adenoma. The positive expression rate of LRIG2 mRNA was 91.3% in invasive cases (total 23 cases) and 62.5% in non-invasive cases (total 16 cases), respectively. LRIG2 gene is overexpressed in invasive pituitary adenoma. It may play an important role in pituitary adenoma invasiveness and further studies are necessary to elucidate the mechanism under this phenomenon.

Objective To analyze the application value and clinical experience of intraoperative ultrasound in microsurgical resection of supratentorial cavernous malformations.Methods From March 2018 to March 2019,31 patients with supratentorial cavernous malformations were operated with assistance of intraoperative ultrasound in our hospital.Intraoperative ultrasound could clearly show the locations and sizes of the lesions,and relations of lesions with surrounding structures to choose appropriate surgical routes.The degrees of resection were judged and complications were recorded.The patients were followed up for 3-6 months,and modified Rankin scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the prognoses.Results In these 31 patients,35 cavernous hemangiomas were diagnosed by MR imaging before surgery;33 lesions were removed surgically,and the other two lesions located in the contralateral side of the operative field were not removed.The accuracy of intraoperative ultrasound guiding the lesions was up to 100％.There were no postoperative infections or deaths.During follow-up,mRS score of 28 patients was 0;the other 3 patients with postoperative neurological impairment recovered partially during follow-up.Conclusion With the help of real-time monitoring of intraoperative ultrasound and location technique of small pieces of hemostatic yam,patients with supratentorial cavernous malformations could acquire satisfactory prognosis through meticulous microsurgery.
