Complications of ureteroneocystostomy are relatively rare. Nevertheless, it would be desirable to use and operative approach that would prevent all complications. Based on our experiences with ureteroneocystostomy during the last 5.6 years, the causes, the operative methods and results were discussed. The results were as follows 1. Ureteroneocystostomy was performed in cases of primary reflux( 7 ureters), megaureter (6), ectopic ureter(5), posterior urethral valve(4) and ureterocele(3) as congenital causes. Acquired causes were iatrogenic ( 7 ureters) , tuberculosis(6), bladder ca(3) and traumatic ureteral injury(2) And causes of remained three ureters couldn`t be seeked. 2. Thirty nine of forty six ureters was performed with the method of submucosal tunnel and 7 with end to side. Among them 11 ureters with diffuse ureteral stricture were combined with the method of Vesico-psoas hitch. 3. Thirty five of thirty eight ureters was successfully corrected. Postoperative complications were contracted VUR in 2 cases, ipsilateral VUR, obstruction and unimproved renal function in each one case.

Postoperative biliary stricture is a relatively rare but serious complication of biliary surgery. Although Rouxen-Y hepaticojejunostomy or choledochojejunostomy are well-established and fundamental therapeutic approaches, their postoperative morbidity and mortality rates have been reported to be up to 33% and 13%, respectively. Recent studies suggest that percutaneous transhepatic intervention is an effective and less invasive therapeutic modality compared with traditional surgical treatment. Compared with fluoroscopic intervention, percutaneous with cholangioscopy may be more useful in biliary strictures, as it can provide visual information regarding the stricture site. We recently experienced two cases complete membranous occlusion of the bilioenteric anastomosis and successfully treated both patients using percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy.

PURPOSE: We performed this study to evaluate the alterations in renal function for patients with ileal conduit and ileal orthotopic neobladder MATERIALS AND METHODS: From January 1999 to June 2004, 48 patients who had undergone radical cystectomy with urinary diversion were included in our study. The patients were divided into two groups according to the types of urinary diversion. One group consisted of 29 patients with ileal conduit and the other group consisted of 19 patients with ileal W neobladder. The mean age of the ileal conduit group and the ileal W neobladder group were 65.6+/-9.9 years and 60.8+/-8.3 years, respectively. The preoperative and postoperative blood urea nitrogen/creatinine (BUN/Cr) levels, postoperative complications and postoperative GFR, as measured by (99m)Tc-DTPA scans, were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: For the postoperative complications, stricture at the ureterovesical anastomosis site occurred in 1.7% (1/58 renal units) of the ileal conduit group and in 10.5% (4/38 renal units) of the ileal W neobladder group. Acute pyelonephritis occurred in 5.2% (3/58 renal units) of the ileal conduit group and in 5.3% (2/38 renal units) of the ileal W neobladder group. The pre- and postoperative serum BUN/Cr levels were 20.8/1.3 and 24.8/1.6, respectively, in the ileal conduit group, and 17.2/1.1 and 18.8/1.2, respectively, in the ileal W neobladder group. There were no statistical significant differences between the pre- and postoperative changes of the serum BUN/Cr levels for both groups. The GFR, as measured by (99m)Tc-DTPA scans, were 77.6 and 78.7ml/ min/1.73m2 in the ileal conduit group and the ileal W neobladder group, respectively. There were no statistical significant differences between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: There were no significant differences in renal function between the ileal conduit and ileal W neobladder.

PURPOSE: The surgical treatment of anal stenosis includes internal sphincterotomy, rotaton flap and advancement flap according to the stenosis degree, recently, Christensen performed house shaped advancement flap and reported fair results. We compared and analyzed the surgical methods and results in patients with moderate and severe anal stenosis who underwent house shaped advancement flap and C-anoplasty. METHODS: We have performed this study with 6 cases using the house shaped advancement flap and 6 cases using the C-anoplasty. The out come was assessed by clinical characteristics, surgical method, operation time, duration of hospitalization, healing time, postoperative complications, results. RESULTS: The average operation time was 38 min in those house shaped advancement flap cases and 63 min in C-anoplasty cases. The average time of hospitalization was 6 days and 9 days, respectively, and the average time of healing was 28 days and 46 days, respectively. In those house advancement flap cases, surgery could be done in 2 directions at the same time in 4 cases and 3 directions in 2 cases; as for those C-anoplasty cases, surgery could be done in 1 direction in 4 cases and 2 directions in 1 case. Two complications were observed in C-anoplasty, one flap infection and one flap necrosis, and in house shaped advancement flap, no complication was observed. CONCLUSIONS: House shaped advancement flap have several advantages compared to the C-anoplasty, and since house shaped advancement flap could be performed in 2 to 3 directions or even 4 directions at the same time, the anus could sufficiently expanded in severe anal stenosis patients. The house shaped advancement flap might be one of the good method in treating anal stenosis.

Central lung cancer is a common disease in clinic which usually occurs above the segmental bronchus. It is commonly accompanied by bronchial stenosis or obstruction, which can easily lead to atelectasis. Accurately distinguishing lung cancer from atelectasis is important for tumor staging, delineating the radiotherapy target area, and evaluating treatment efficacy. This article reviews domestic and foreign literatures on how to define the boundary between central lung cancer and atelectasis based on multimodal images, aiming to summarize the experiences and propose the prospects.

7.Prevention and management of complications after laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
Chinese Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2015;18(6):533-535
Laparoscopic colorectal operation is one of the most reliable procedures and widely used in the treatment of gastrointestinal tumor. Its advantages, including minimed invasiveness and rapid postoperative recovery have been widely accepted, but the complications are still chanllenging for surgeons. Intraoperative complications mainly include vascular injury, bowel injury and ureteral damage. Postoperative complications include anastomotic leak, bleeding and stenosis. Understanding of anatomy and precise operation are critical to prevent complications. Diagnosis of postoperative complications in time and proper treatment can achieve maximal improvement of outcomes.

PURPOSE: Numerous operative techniques have been developed to correct hypospadias. Tubularized incised plate (TIP) urethroplasty has recently been reported with good results. We analyzed the surgical outcome and complications in children with hypospadias using TIP urethroplasty. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between July 1998 and July 2001, 28 patients with hypospadias were primarily corrected using TIP urethroplasty by one surgeon. The mean age of the patients was 4.2 years. A position of the meatus was coronal in six boys, at the posterior penile shaft in five, glandular in four, penoscrotal in four, at the anterior penile shaft in three, at the midshaft in three and the perineal in three. An 8 or 10 Fr Foley catheter was used as a urethral stent, which was removed at day 12 (10-15). RESULTS: Of the 28 patients, 23 were corrected with TIP urethroplasty only, and the other 5 combined with an onlay island flap. For the management of penile curvature, skin and ventral releases were used in 14 patients; with tunica albuginea placation used in the other 14. Postoperative complications were noted in 3 patients, of whom 2 developed urethrocutaneous fistula and one developed meatal stricture. The cosmetic results were very good in most patients. CONCLUSIONS: TIP urethroplasty can be used for all type of hypospadias. It has advantages, such as an excellent cosmetic appearance, preservation of the urethral plate and a lower complication rate than other urethroplasty techniques. Our results suggest that this technique is recommendable for the management of primary hypospadias as a first choice.

OBJECTIVE: The purposes of this study are to evaluate the efficacy of en bloc open-door laminoplasty and to investigate the validity of various factors as prognotic indicators in patients with multisegmental spondylotic myelopathy and ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament(OPLL). METHODS: The authors reviewed 43 cases in whom laminoplasty were performed for cervical myelopathy between January 2000 and December 2002. Clinical symptoms and results were evaluated using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA) scale. The recovery rate was calculated and then assessed for prognostic factors such as preoperative JOA scores, ages, history of previous trauma, duration of symptoms and signal change in cord on T2-weighted magnetic resonance image. RESULTS: In cervical stenosis, canal widening of antero-posterior diameter and dimension after laminoplasty is 4.16mm, 87.43mm2 and in OPLL is 6.20mm, 117.61mm2. In all cases there wasn't neurologic deterioration, mild postoperative complications developed in seven cases. Four patient had a limitation of range of neck motion and the other one showed kyphotic change and another two showed C5 radiculopathy. The recovery rate of JOA score in cervical stenosis and OPLL was 62% and 68% respectively. Duration of symptoms, the severity(preoperative JOA score), and signal change in cord on T2-weighted magnetic resonance image had close relationship to the clinical outcomes. CONCLUSION: Unilateral en bloc laminoplasty is simultaneous expansile and decompressive method. And preoperative JOA score, symptom duration and high signal intensity on T2-weighted magnetic resonance image can be used to predict prognosis.
