Objective To evaluate the different arteriographic manifestations of acute renal arterial hemorrhage,and the treatment effects of emergency interventional embolization.Methods 87 patients with renal arterial hemorrhage who were failed to conservative treatment underwent the renal arteriography to confirm the position and degree of lesion.According to the arteriographic manifesta-tions,appropriate embolic agents such as spring coil,acrylic acid microspheres and the like were used to embolize the targeted vessel. The arteriographic manifestations and embolization efficacy were retrospectively analyzed.Results Contrast medium leakage was showed by renal angiography in 43 patients,13 of whom had arterio-venous fistula (AVF)and 1 5 of whom had renal pseudoaneu-rysms (RAP).Among this 1 5 patients,there were 5 patients with arteriovenous fistula and one patiernt with artery-calyces fistula. Hemorrhage of tumor vessel was shown in 1 5 patients and renal arteriovenous malformation (RAVM)in 1.47 patients underwent renal artery CT arteriography before emergency interventional embolization.The hematuresis was completely stopped or significantly relieved in 82 of all patients.Only 3 patients with renal trauma and 2 patients with percutaneous nephroscope were still had haematu-ria.All patients were followed up for 2 years.The total effective rate of emergency interventional embolization treatment was 94.25%(82/87),and no serious complications were observed.Conclusion As a safe,effective and micro-invasive treatment,emergency in-terventional embolization therapy can be used to treat the acute renal hemorrhage effectively.It can keep the maximum renal func-tion.Though acute renal hemorrhage angiography may have different manifestations,the choice of embolic agents is the key to stop the symptom.Renal artery CTA before embolotherapy is important for the diagnosis and therapy of acute renal hemorrhage.

Objectives:To assess bowel function and quality of life in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC)after ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA).Methods:Clinical data of 37 UC patients after IPAA between 2014 and 2017 were retrospectively analyzed at Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital School of Medicine Zhejiang University. The IBDQ and Bowel Function questionnaire were used for analyzing correlation between clinical variables and quality of life or bowel function.Results:Laparoscopic operation was performed in 12 cases at stage 2 and 25 cases at stage 3. Postoperative defecation of stage 3 patients were better than that of stage 2 ( t=6.72, P<0.05). The number of daily defecation in age >45-year-old group was more than that in <45-year-old ( t=3.49, P<0.05), and the rate of evening stool seepage in the older group was higher than in the younger group( t=5.28, P<0.05). The total score of intestinal symptoms of IBDQ in patients of pouchitis was lower than that without pouchitis ( r=0.330, P<0.05). The total score in age >45 in terms of systemic symptoms ( r=0.349, P<0.05) and emotional function ( r=0.379, P<0.05) was higher than age <45. Conclusions:Outcomes of UC patients after IPAA are satisfactory, bowel function and quality of life is related with age, and stage of IPAA affect postoperative defecation.

OBJECTIVETo describe the early experience of resecting skull base tumor via a radiofrequency ablation-assisted endoscopic endonasal approach, investigate the safety and feasibility of the technique, and to assess its preliminary treatment outcomes.

METHODSTen patients with skull base tumor who were admitted between September and November 2013 were operated on through a radiofrequency ablation-assisted endoscopic endonasal approach in Xuanwu hospital of capital medical university. In this study, the operative technique was described, and the degree of resection, complications and the early clinical outcomes was presented.

RESULTSComplete resection was achieved in all patients using this technique. No patient in the series experienced a new neurological deficit, cerebrospinal fluid leak or meningitis after surgery. No recurrence and death related to skull base tumor were found in the follow-up period (16-18 months). The volume of intraoperative blood loss was 60 to 1 000 ml (medium 285 ml). The duration of operations was from 42 to 150 min (medium 95 min). The hospital stay was from 14 to 19 d (average 15.7 d).

CONCLUSIONOur limited experience indicates that this technique is feasible and safe for the complete resection of some skull base tumors in selected cases.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for postoperative surgical site infections (SSIs) in patients with Crohn's disease (CD).Methods:This retrospective observational study included CD patients undergoing bowel resection between July 2015 and July 2018. The prevalence and risk factors of SSIs were evaluated. The microbiological evaluation from patients with SSIs was performed by bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test.Results:There were 66 patients suffering SSIs, with 41 incisional SSIs and 32 organ/space SSIs. Multivariate analysis identified the preoperative infliximab therapy ( OR 2.338,95% CI 1.192-4.587, P=0.013), laparoscopic surgery ( OR 0.460,95% CI 0.226-0.936, P=0.013), and preoperative white blood cell ( OR 2.008,95% CI 1.018-3.961, P=0.044) as independent factors for SSIs. Fifty-nine strains of pathogenic bacteria were detected in 66 cases of CD combined with SSIs, including 36 strains of gram-negative bacteria, 5 strains of gram-positive bacteria, and 2 strains of fungi. Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were main G - bacteria, with high resistance to common used antibiotics. Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium were main G -. 62.1% of the SSIs grew extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing pathogens in their bacteria cultures and 37.9% grew non-ESBL microbes. Conclusion:The incidence of SSIs was higher in CD patients. Preoperative infliximab therapy, preoperative white blood cell, and laparoscopic surgery were predictors of SSIs.
