Objective To compare the clinical curative effect of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and flexible uretero‐scope lithotripsy (FURL) for the treatment of renal calculus ≤2 cm .Methods Totally 148 patients with kidney stone ≤2 cm whom have taken operation treatment in our hospital were chosen from January 2014 to December 2014 .Among them ,81 patients were taken PCNL treatment (PCNL group) and 67 patients were taken FURL treatment (FURL group) .Clinical curative effect were compared .Results There was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of stone clearance rate ,fever rate and postoperative WBC increase (P>0 .05);the operation time of PCNL group (64 .21 ± 11 .71)min was shorten than the FURL group (107 .32 ± 16 .35)min ,the postoperative hospital stay of PCNL group (6 .51 ± 1 .92)d was longer than the FURL group (3 .28 ± 1 .24)d ,the Hb decrease after operation of PCNL group (13 .31 ± 2 .71)g/L was higher than the FURL group (3 .88 ± 2 .10)g/L , the postoperative hs CRP increase of PCNL group (14 .21 ± 1 .62)mg/L was higher than the FURL group (5 .23 ± 1 .14)mg/L ,the differences were statistically significant (P<0 .05) .Conclusion For the treatment of renal calculus ≤2 cm ,the FURL has a great advantage on reducing postoperative complications ,decreasing the trauma of operation and shorten postoperative hospital stay .

Objectives To compare the effectiveness and safety of local anesthesia and epidural anesthesia with ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy at distal ureteral stone. Methods A total of 160 patients with distal ureteral stone treated with ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy from December 2013 to February 2014 were included. They were divided equally into 2 groups by method of random sampling. Patients in group A (n=80) treated with local anesthesia were compared to those in group B(n=80),who were dealt with epidural anesthesia. Results The statistical difference was significant in terms of hospital stay after operation and overall cost of therapy(P<0. 05) respectively,on the other hand,it was not significant in respect of the operation time,the operation successful rate,the stone clearance rate and the complications incidence rate (P>0. 05)respectively. Conclusion For the identified patients,the local anesthesia in ureteral ureteroscopic pneumatic lith-otripsy is a safe,effective and economical method for distal ureteral stone.

Objective:A study was conducted to observe and compare the efficacy and safety of endostar combined with peme-trexed in elderly patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma. Methods:Sixty advanced lung adenocarcinoma (ⅢB-Ⅳ) patients who never received any therapy were included. The patients were divided into two groups. One group comprised endostar treatment com-bined with pemetrexed (26 cases of males, 15 cases of females, and 11 cases of individuals aged 65 years old to 78 years old), and the other group comprised pemetrexed only (34 cases of males, 20 cases of female, and 14 cases of individuals aged 65 years old to 78 years old). The two groups were treated for 4 to 6 cycles, and evaluation of treatments was performed every two cycles. Results:The endostar group was re-treated for 80 cycles, and the average cycle was 3.1. The group without endostar was re-treated for 115 cycles. The short-term effects are as follows. The total effective rates (RRs) in the experimental and control groups were 23.1%and 14.7%, re-spectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The disease control rate (DCR) was not significantly different (P>0.05). For pleural effusion, RR and DCR were significantly better in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). In the experimental group, compared with PD, the microvessel density (MVD) in the DCR showed higher expression, and a statistically signif-icant difference (P=0.03) was observed. In the control group, compared with PD, the MVD in the DCR also showed higher expression, but no significant difference (P=0.73) was observed. The long-term effects were as follows: median progression-free survival (PFS), median survival, and side effects between the two groups were not significantly different (P>0.05). Conclusion: Endostar combined with pemetrexed showed increase in total efficiency in elderly patients with lung adenocarcinoma, and malignant pleural effusion was controlled without increasing the toxicity of chemotherapy. MVD can be used as a predictor of Endostar application.

Objective To assess the left ventricular(LV)segmental function by velocity vector imaging(VVI)in uremic patients with diffferent quantity of parathyroid hormone(PTH).Methods Sixty patients with uremia were divided into 2 groups according to the value of PTH:group A with PTH less than 3 times of upper normal limit,group B with PTH more than 3 times of upper normal limit.Normal control group was 30 healthy subj ects.All people were evaluated by VVI.The parameters,including the longitudinal systolic strain rate(SSR),diastolic strain rate(DSR),were analysed among the three groups.Results Compared with normal group,in group A and B,SSR,DSR in all segments were lower.Compared with group A,in group B,DSR were all significantly lower(P<0.05),SSR in apex of laternal wall,medium of anterior septum wall,posterior wall,medium and apex of posterior septum wall and superior wall,base,medium and apex of anterior wall were significantly lower(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference of left ventricular ejection fraction between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusions VVI is a viable objective tool to quantitatively assess LV segmental function damaged by different quantity of PTH.

Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of portal vein complications after orthotopic liver transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 173 patients receiving orthotopic liver transplantation in our hospital from 2002 to 2005 were retrospectively analyzed. Results The incidence of portal vein complications was 3.5% (6 cases). The incidence of portal vein stenosis was 1.2% and that of portal vein thrombosis was 2. 3%. Three cases had previously been treated for portal hypertension and three cases had had a history of portal vein thrombosis before liver transplantation. All the complicated patients recovered and were discharged after successful treatment. There was no complication related mortality. Conclusions A history of previous treatment for portal hypertension, portal vein thrombosis is a risk factor predisposing the patients to portal vein complications after orthotopic liver transplantation. Color Doppler sonography is a sensitive and specific method for monitoring the portal vein complications following orthotopic liver transplantation. The angiography of portal vein is essential for diagnosis of the complications. Thrombolysis treatment is unsatisfactory for advanced stage portal vein thrombosis. Balloon dilation and stenting are both a safe and effective management modality for simple portal vein stenosis.
