Objective To explore the effect of cisapride combined with polyethylene glycol electrolytic solution on preoperative bowel preparation for patients receiving colorectal cancer operation. Methods One hundred and fifty-two patients received colorectal cancer opera-tion in our hospital from October 2010 to October 2014 were selected. Those who were treated with cisapride combined with polyethylene gly-col electrolytic solution for bowel preparation before operation were assigned to oberservation group(n=83),those who were treated with poly-ethylene glycol electrolytic solution for bowel preparation before operation were assigned to control group(n=69). The side effect after medi-cation, electrolyte concentration and incidence of incision infection between groups after operation were collected and compared. Results The incidence of nausea and vomiting was 7. 23% in observation group,which was significantly lower than 18. 84% in control group (χ2 =4. 64,P=0. 03). The difference of Na+,K+ and Cl- concentration between groups were not significant (t=1. 83,P=0. 07;t=0. 42,P=0. 68;t=1. 86,P=0. 07). The body temperature,leukocyte count and incidence of incision infection after operation in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group (t=2. 68,P<0. 01;t=3. 29,P<0. 01;χ2 =4. 90,P=0. 03). Conclusion Cisapride com-bined with polyethylene glycol electrolytic solution before operation can significantly decrease the incidence of gastrointestinal side effect after medicaiton and incision infection after operation and it is beneficial to recovery for patients with colorectal cancer operation.

Objectives:To observe the efficacy of enteral nutrition with short peptide elemental diet(Pepti 2000) in patients with gastrointestinal fistulas and evaluate the sensitivity of nutrition associated index in nutrition monitoring. Methods:Ten cases with gastrointestinal fistulas were administered total enteral nutrition(TEN).They received 146 kJ/(kg?d) of non protein calorie(NPC) and 0.25 g/(kg?d) of nitrogen per day. Body weight,serum albumin, transferrin(TFN), prealbumin(PA),fibronectin(FN),triglyceride and cholesterol were monitored on before and 7th and 28th after TEN. Results:Seven days after TEN,serum PA and FN levels rised significantly( P

Objective:To compare the clinical outcomes of laparoscopic nephrectomy and open nephrectomy for radical treatment of renal cancer.Methods: Fifty-three patients with renal cell carcinoma(due to receive radical renal tumor resection) were randomly allocated into 2 groups: retroperitoneal laparocopic(RL) group(n=27) and open approach(OA) group(n=26).The operation time,hospital stay,use of painkiller,fasting period after operation,and blood loss during operation were analyzed and compared.All the cases were followed up for 6-12 months and the survival rates,wound healing,and carcinoma metastasis were recorded.Results: Patients in both groups were all successfully treated and their sexes,clinical stages,ages,and tumor sizes were all comparable.The (operation) time was similar in the 2 groups,with that of RL group being(66.66?10.37) min and of OA group being((69.08?)(11.22) min.)The fasting period in RL group([1?0.36] d) was significantly shorter than that in the OA group([2?0.68] d,P

Background and purpose: Primary signet ring cell carcinoma(SRCC) of the bladder is rarely diagnosed in the clinic. Few cases have been reported in the literature, so there was lack of understanding of the primary bladder SRCC in terms of diagnosis and treatment. Our study was to investigate the clinical features and treatment strategy for primary SRCC of the bladder and review the status of the disease along with the literature. Methods: 3 cases of primary bladder SRCC were studied, including clinical features, treatment, follow-up and their prognosis.The literature was reviewed. Results: All cases received ultrasound, computerized tomography, cystoscopy, biopsy and other related lab tests for diagnosis and differential diagnosis. Laparoscopic radical cystectomy and orthotopic ileal neobladders were performed in 2 cases, while the other case received laparoscopic radical cystectomy and ileal conduit diversion, Chemotherapy (cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil) was delivered in one case after surgery. One patient died at 6 months postoperatively because of multiple metastasis. The other 2 cases have been followed-up only for 8 and 12 months postoperatively, and no recurrence or metastasis have been observed. Conclusion: Primary SRCC of the bladder lacks distinctive clinical and imaging manifestations. The tumor grows very invasively. Radical cystcctomy is one of the optimal approaches for treatment of SRCC of bladder.

Background and purpose: The prognostic factors on survival for the patients with prostate carcinoma are still underdeterrnined. This study was to analyze the survival of three common treatment methods for prostate carcinoma and the prognostic factors on survival. Methods: 494 male patients who were diagnosed as prostate cancer were enrolled into the retrospective study. All of the data like age, stage, grade, PSA level, ALP, Hb and treatments were collected. Overall survival and disease specific survival rates for patients were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. Prognostic factors on disease specific survival were also analyzed by Log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards model. Results: Disease specific survival rates at 1, 3 and 5 year were 96.0%, 89.0% and 80.0% for all 494 patients, respectively. Disease specific survival rate at 3-year was 92.4% for brachytherapy, 100.0% for radical prostatectomy and 80.6% for hormonal therapy (P=0.008). Multivariate analysis by Cox model showed that stage, PSA level and age significantly impacted on disease specific survival. Conclusion: Brachytherapy and radical prostatectomy provides longer survival time than hormonal therapy for patients with prostate cancer. Clinical stage and PSA level and age of prostate cancer are independent factors impacting on survival significantly.

Objective: To probe into the etiology of the sever e post-renal transplantation infection and its diagnosis and t reatment. Methods: A retrospective analysis was made on the seve re infected cases among 1 504 renal transplantation cases. Results: (1)The infected rate in the whole group was 23.74%,and 14.01% of the infecti on cases was severely involved. (2) About 86% of the severe infection occurred within 6 months after operation and as high as 82% of the patients were successf ully rescued by various etiological treatment. (3) The main etiological causes according to their frequency and type were: Bacteria(Mycobacterium tub erculosis, Pseudomonas, Aureus staphylococcus, Bacillus cloacae, etc.); Fungus (Candida albians, Candida tropicals, Penicillum patulum). Cytomegalo virus also often appeared. Conclusion: (1) Infection is one of t h e common complications after renal transplantation and severe infection is an im portant cause of death. (2) Correct diagnosis and combined therapy in time may improve its success rate. (3) Characterized germ spectrum exists in severe post -renal transplantation infection and its role is of great importance to clinica l management.

Objective:To perform trans-peritoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy via a single incision in treatment of adrenal tumors,and to discuss its clinical outcome and safety.Methods:Single incision trans-peritoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy was used in treatment of three patients with adrenal tumors.The incision was made 3 cm below the costal margin of anterior axillary line; three Tocars were placed in the cut.The instruments used included single port access,CUSA,Hem-o-lok,etc..Results:The three operations were all successful,and there were no conversion to open procedure or a need for extra Ttrocars.The operating time periods were 75,116,and 135 min,with a mean of (108.7?30.7)min.The perioperative blood losses were 10,20,and 30 ml,with a mean of (20?10)ml.The gastric canal and ureteral catheter were withdrew one day after operation,and the drainage tube was withdrew 3 d after operation.The mean postoperative hospital stay was 4 d.Conclusion:Single incision trans-peritoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy has the advantage of little trauma,less blood loss,satisfactory safety,and prompt postoperative recovery,but is difficult to manage.

OBJECTIVETo review kidney transplantation in the center and analyze the risk factors affecting long-term allograft survival.

METHODSThirty-two relative variables were analyzed with SAS statistical software. Using Log-rank method, we investigated influence of these variables on short-and long-term survival of grafts. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to estimate the 1-, 3-, 5-, 10-years graft survival rates and half-life. Proportional hazards regression analysis (Cox model) was used to assess and rank the relative risk of potential variables.

RESULTSThe 1-, 3-, 5-, 10-years graft survival rates were 83%, 75%, 66% and 48%. After excluding the patients died with functioning grafts, the 1-, 3-, 5-, 10 years grafts survival rate increased to 89%, 82%, 75% and 69%, respectively. The mean half-life was 8.78 +/- 0.14 and 14.09 +/- 0.20 years, respectively. By Log-rank analysis, factors affecting short- and long-term graft survival were identified as: renal function, duration of graft function became normal, cold-ischemia time, presence of acute rejection, delayed graft function, immunosuppressive regimen, complication, infection, anti-rejection therapy. Cox model multivariate analysis showed that there were 18 factors affecting graft survival.

CONCLUSIONSNew immunosuppressive agents not only significantly increase short-term graft survival, but also have the better long-term outcome tendency. Making assurance to get high quality donor organ and minimizing the death with graft function may be the most feasible way to prolong graft survival at present.
