Rupture of cavernous corpus is a common emergency in surgery and necessary to be treated surgically. During 1981-1996, 60 cases were carried out in the urology department of Viet Duc hospital, with longitudinal incision along the penis at the confusion are, superficial and deep aponevrosis was transversally incised to find out the rupture area at the albugina. After that the albugina was closed by the nonabsorbable suture. The hospitalization is short and no long term sequella: sclerosis of the cavernous corpus, erectile dysfunction... the diagnosis of the rupture of cavernous corpus is easy, the operation is simple and there will be a good result if the surgical indication is adequate.

Analyzing the common causes of fail in 19 patients receiving the laparoscopic urethral of lithotripsy has shown that: (1) Aged: The failure of lithotripsy occurred at any age. The ratio of female: male was 2:1; (2) Fail causes: among 19 cases of fail, there were 15 cases (73.7%) without placing double J sond and residing at ureter from 3-7 days before lithotripsis procedure. Out of the total of 19 cases, 4 cases had meat ureterostenosis. There were 4 cases with big and hard stones. Water used fort lithotripsy was 5-8 litters, prolonged procedure from 60-120 minutes was 68.5%.

Purpose: Although some immune protection from close contact with individuals who have coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been documented, there is limited data on the seroprevalence of antibodies against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in individuals who were in lockdown with confirmed COVID-19 cases. This study investigated immunogenicity against SARS-CoV-2 in household members and people who lived near home-quarantined patients with COVID-19. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted during the community-based care that took place during lockdowns in District 10, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam from July to September 2021. SARS-CoV-2 antibody levels were determined in index cases of COVID-19, household contacts, and a no-contact group from the same area. Results: A total of 770 participants were included (355 index cases, 103 household contacts, and 312 no contacts). All index cases were unvaccinated, but >90% of individuals in the household and no-contact groups had received ≥1 vaccine dose. SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies (Nabs) were present in >77% of unvaccinated index cases versus 64%/65.4% in the householdo-contact groups (p=0.001). Antibody concentrations in unvaccinated index cases were significantly higher than those in household contacts and no contacts, with no difference between the latter groups. In all cases, antibody levels declined markedly ≥6 weeks after infection, and failed to persist beyond this time in the household and no-contact groups. Conclusion Community-based care may have helped to create community immunogenicity, but Nabs did not persist, highlighting a need for vaccination for all individuals before, or from 6 weeks after, infection with SARS-CoV-2.
