Objective To summarize the clinical experience of harvesting and using the kidneys from donation after cardiac death (DCD) donors.Methods Fourteen kidney transplantations were successfully performed on 14 patients with end-stage renal diseases.The kidneys were harvested from 7 volunteer donors (age 30~53 years) diagnosed with cardiac death,who were scored 19~23according to the University of Wisconsin donation after cardiac death evaluation.Primary diseases of the donors were cerebral hemorrhage,brain injury,ischemic cerebral vascular disease and brain tumor.Warm ischemia time ranged from 5 to 45 min,and cold ischemia time was 4.5 ~ 12.5 h.Results After transplantation,three patients had delayed graft function (DGF),one had primary non-function (PNF),and two patients developed acute rejection.In the patient with PNF,the transplanted kidney was removed one day after operation and the patient went back to hemodialysis.One patient with DGF was still in recovery with serum creatine 149 μmnol/L (within 3 months after operation).The above two cases both utilized the kidneys with 45 min of warm ischemia time.The rest 12 patients were discharged with normal renal function.Conclusion Under the condition of our country,kidneys strictly harvested from DCD donors can be used as one of the main sources of kidney grafts for kidney transplantation.

Abdominoscrotal hydrocele is rare in clinic. In the past, routine examination and diagnosis were difficult, easy to be misdiagnosed. The daily operations were mostly completed through the groin area or abdominal incision, the wound is large. The application of laparoscopy can clearly diagnose the abdominoscrotal hydrocele through "springing back ball" sign, and can cure the disease by laparoscopic resection of interperitoneal mass and closure of the internal ring. It is worthy of clinical application. In this article, we summarized and analyzed the clinical experience of 15 cases of children with abdominoscrotal hydrocele diagnosed and treated by laparoscopy, to explore the value of the laparoscopic technology in the diagnosis and treatment of the abdominoscrotal hydrocele.
