Objective To evaluate the therapeutic results of neuroendoscopy for the treatmentof of patients with septated Chronic Subdural Hematoma(SCHS). Methods 45 patients with SCSH were operated on under endoscope through a burrhole approach.neomembranes were resected by small microscissors.A closed drainage system was applied temporarily to ensure the efflux of the remaining hematoma. Results Forty-five cases were treated successfully.All patients had a sufficient or complete hematoma evacuation whithout recurrence of subdural hematoma.There was no subdural infection,bleeding,brainedema and cranial aerocele. Conclusions Neuroendoscopy is minimally invasive technique and have the advantages ot simple,effective,safe,less complication,less expensive and shorter hospitalization in the treatment of SCSH.

Objective To understand the differences between sexes in the clinical and pathological features of patients with mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis(MPGS).MethodsOne hundred and five patients with MPGS admitted to our hospital were retrospectively studied in clinical and pathological aspects.Results( 1 ) The proportion of male patients were 75 of 105 ( 71.43 ％ ) and that of females were 30 of 105 ( 28.57％ ) ; ( 2 ) The average age of the male patients was ( 40.25 ± 15.50 ) and that of the females was (36.23 ± 15.26) in year.There was no significant difference between the two groups( t =1.206,P =0.231 ) ;(3) There was no significant difference in duration of disease,hematuria,edema,hypertension prevalence and mean blood pressure( P ＞ 0.05 ).The proportion of patients with hematuria was 56.19％ (59/105).The males accounted for 69.33％ ( 52/75 ) and the females were 63.33％ ( 19/30 ) in the main clinical manifestations of nephrotic syndrome.There was no significant difference( x2 =0.352,P ＞ 0.05 ) between the proportion of males and females; (4)Males and females groups had no significant difference( P ＞ 0.05 )on levels of urinary protein,serum albumin,immunoglobulin,complement,urea nitrogen and serum creatinine.Complement decreased in 53 cases,accounting for 53％ of all the participants.The proportion of male patients with renal insufficiency was 24.00％ (18/75),and the proportion of females with renal insufficiency was 13.33％ (4/30).There was no significant difference ( x2 =1.472,P ＞ 0.05 )on the percentage of males and females with renal insufficiency.The mean value of urea nitrogen was higher than the normal levels ; (5) The proportion of male cases with different deposition of immune complexes was 93.06％ (67/72),and the proportion in females were 92.86％ (26/28) in the exception of 5 cases ( male 3 and female 2 ) with no glomeruli in immunofluorescence examination.No significant difference was found between the two groups( x2 =0.001,P ＞ 0.05 ) ; ( 6 ) There was no significant gender differences( x2 =1.696,P ＞ 0.05 ) found in risk assessment.ConclusionThe prevalence of MPGS is higher in male patients than in females,the main clinical manifestations of which were nephrotic syndrome.Patients were found to have a higher rate of hematuria,decreased complement C3,and renal dysfunction than the normal levels.There was no significant difference in gender on the clinical and pathological aspects of MPGS.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of timing of definitive operation on prognosis of patients with iatrogenic bile duct injury (IBDI). MethodsThe clinical data of 38 patients with IBDI were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 38 patients, the injury happened in 7 patients in our hospital while 31 patients were transferred in from other hospitals. We analyzed the previous operative records, the clinical manifestations of the patients, the radiological images and our operative findings in the definitive operations. According to the timing of the definitive operation, the patients were divided into the intraoperative repair group (n=26), the early repair group (n=15) and the delayed repair group (n=17). ResultsPatients in the intraoperative repair group had the best short-and long-term results, the shortest length of hospital stay and the lowest total cost. The early repair group, though having worse Results than the intraoperative repair group was still better than the delayed repair group. However, early detection of injuries and the ability to carry out timely corrective procedures depended on the availability of surgical expertise in the hospital. ConclusionsThe timing of definitive operation to provide corrective surgery to IBDI was a vitally important factor which affected prognosis.It is best to repair the injury within the same operation. The repair should be carried out by a doctor with ample experience in bile duct surgery.

Objective To investigate the relationship between pelvic floor dysfunction and serum relaxin H2 and expression of vaginal wall relaxin receptor LGR7 mRNA in late pregnant women. Methods Before the beginning of delivery,all women were evaluated by pelvic organ prolapse quantitation(POP-Q)scoring.Twelve women with stress urinary incontinence(SUI)and stage II prolapse of anterior vaginal wall were selected as patient group,and another 24 women without SUI and prolapse of pelvic floor were served as control group.Serum relaxin H2 was determined by ELISA.Vaginal wall tissues were taken after vaginal delivery,and the expression of relaxin receptor LGR7 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR.Results The serum level of relaxin H2 and expression of LGR7 mRNA of vaginal tissues in patient group were significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.01,P<0.05). Conclusion The increased level of serum relaxin and expression of vaginal wall relaxin receptor may correlate with the pelvic floor dysfunction in late pregnant women.
