5.The Psychiatric Problem of Male infertility Patients by Symptom Check List-90 (SCL-90).
Korean Journal of Fertility and Sterility 1998;25(3):349-353
It has been well known that infertile women experience not only emotional disturbance but also stress. But there is no concern about male infertility patients. So phychiat.ic symptoms were studied with SCL-90 (Symptom Check List-90) in 30 infertile men who was operated testicular sperm extraction (TESE) in Samsung Cheil Hospital and in age matched 31 fertile men from Jan. 1998 to Aug. 1998. In 5 symptom dimensions (Obcessive-Compulsive, Interpersonal Sensitivity, Depression, Phobic anxiety, Psychoticisim) scores. The Infertile group scored significantly higher than the control group. The result revealed that infertile men also experienced substantially more psychiatric symptoms than fertile men. Considering this results, psychiatric evaluation and tender care by infertility specialist are necessary for infertile men during and after evaluation and treatment.

PURPOSE: To determine the efficacy of CarnitilR (acetylcarnitine, Hanmi, Korea) therapy in idiopathic oligoasthenospermic men. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-four subfertile men with abnormal semen parameters were treated between March, 2003 and March, 2004 with 3 g of CarnitilR daily for 3 months. Changes in semen parameters were evaluated 3 months after this therapy. RESULTS: The mean age was 34.2 years and the mean follow-up duration was 3.7 months. In asthenospemic patients (n=28), semen analysis before and after CarnitilR treatment showed an increase in volume (2.64+/-1.65 ml vs. 3.10+/-1.60 ml), motility (35.1+/-17.7% vs. 45.9+/-20.4%) and viability (51.4+/-20.3% vs. 59.3+/-13.6%) respectively. In oligoasthenospermic patients (n=16), semen analysis before and after CarnitilR treatment showed an increase in sperm count (10.7+/-54.4 million/ml vs. 38.4+/-32.5 million/ml) respectively. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggested that in idiopathic oligoasthenospermic men the empirical medical therapy with acetylcarnitine may be considered as primary treatment.

10.Comparison of the Efficacy and Vaginal Erosion Rate between Monofilament and Multifilament Polypropylene Tapes for Treating Urinary Incontinence.
Korean Journal of Urology 2008;49(9):844-849
PURPOSE: We compared the efficacy and vaginal erosion rates between a polypropylene multifilament tape(anterior intravaginal slingplasty; IVS) and a polypropylene monofilament tape(tension free vaginal tape; TVT) as surgical implants for suburethral, tension-free tape for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence(SUI). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the women(n=272) who underwent an anterior IVS(n=142) or a TVT (n=130) procedure for managing SUI, between January 2004 and December 2005 at Cheil General Hospital. Only 216 patients (the anterior IVS group: 112, the TVT group: 104) with a follow-up of at least 24 months were included in this study. Preoperatively, each patient received a history review, a physical examination, a voiding diary, a pad test, uroflowmetry and determination of the postvoid residual urine. Follow-up evaluations were performed at 1 month, 3 months and annually after the operation. RESULTS: The two groups were similar for their preoperative characteristics. There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of the cure rate: cure(89.29% vs. 89.42%, respectively, p=0.974), improvement (6.25% vs. 7.69%, respectively, p=0.677), and failure(4.46% vs. 2.89%, respectively, p=0.539) for the anterior IVS and TVT groups, respectively. Nine women developed vaginal erosion, and this occurred significantly more in the anterior IVS group than the TVT group(7.14% vs. 0.96%, respectively, p=0.036). CONCLUSIONS: Anterior IVS and TVT appear to be equally effective for the surgical treatment of female SUI. However the number of women who were diagnosed with vaginal erosion was significantly higher in the anterior IVS group than in the TVT group. It is possible that the multifilamentous nature of the anterior IVS tape might contribute to vaginal erosion.
