Objective To investigate the value of prostate-bladder angle (PBA) measured by MRI in the diagnosis of benign prostate obstruction (BPO). Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out on 87 benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients referred for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) between March 2009 and November 2009. PBA was measured by MRI and urodynamic parameter Qmax was measured as well. With the diagnostic criteria of BPO as Qmax<10 ml/s, the patients were divided into two groups: obstruction group and non-obstruction group. PBA was compared between these two groups. The sensitivity and the specificity of PBA in diagnosing BPO were also analyzed. Results The age range of the patients was 57-90 years with a median age 73 years; Qmax was 2.325.4 ml/s with median Qmax 7.9 ml/s; PBA was 4°-52° with median PBA 27°. There were 25 patients in the non-obstruction group with PBA between 4°- 21°(13°); in the obstruction group,there were 62 patients with PBA between 15°- 52°(34°). PBA was found statistically different between the obstruction and non-obstruction group (P<0.01). With the cutoff at PBA≥20°for the diagnosis of BPO, the sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis were 90. 3 % (56/62)and 96.0% (24/25), respectively. Conclusion PBA measured by MRI is valuable and can be used as a new non-invasive parameter in the diagnosis of BPO.

Objective To study the surgical treatment strategy for heamophilic arthropathy and musculoskeletal appara?tus. Methods A total of 120 heamophilic patients underwent 166 primary operations from January 1996 to June 2015 in Pe?king Union Medical College Hospital, with the average age of 29.7±12 years (from 6 to 61 years). Hemophilic type A accounted for 109 patients and hemophilic type B accounted for 11. Eighty?seven patients presented with bleeds within the joints, with 63 cases for knee involved, 29 cases for hip, 11 cases for ankle. Fifteen patients presented with intramuscular bleeds, 21 patients with heamophilic pseudotumors. Strategy of clotting factor replacement therapy was designed according to the different level of opera?tion procedure. The clinical manifestation, operative strategy, clinical outcome and complications were retrospectively recorded. Results 41 cases (34.2%) of patients underwent surgeries for more than one location. Totally, 166 procedures were performed for 120 patients. There were 103 procedures of joint arthroplasty (62.0%, 103/166), 21 procedures of pseudotumor resection (12.7%, 21/166), 15 procedures of tendon lengthening, 12 procedures of ankle arthrodesis, 13 procedures for knee flexion contracture. There were 30 cases of postoperative complications, with the rate of 18.1% (30/166). The coagulation related complication was 4.8%in this group (8/166). The surgical procedure related complication was 7.2%(12/166). All the preoperative symptoms were relieved during the follow?up. Conclusion Surgical treatment was effective for the heamophilic arthropathy and lesion of mus?culoskeletal apparatus, under the reasonable clotting factor replacement therapy. The incidence of perioperative complication in heamophilic patients is higher than that in non?hemophilic patients. Closely inspection was inevitable for perioperative treat?ment in hemophilic patients.
