Objective To evaluate the efficacy of pneumocystoscopy for congenital malformation of the vesicoureteral junction. Methods A total of 18 children (male 11 and female 7, aged from 3 months to 7 years with a mean of 3.6 years) with congenital malformation of the vesicoureteral junction (22 ureters) were enrolled in this study. Among the patients, 9 had vesicoureteral reflux (4 of them had bilateral reflux), 2 had bladder diverticulum complicated with urethral stenosis, and 7 had urethral stenosis and ipsilateral hydronephrosis. After the bladder was insufflated with CO2 through a Foley catheter (16 mm Hg), three trocars were inserted into the bladder, and the bladder was fixed on the abdominal wall using silk thread. By pneumocystoscopy, the Cohen procedure was done through the trocars. A Foley catheter was indwelled at the end of the procedure. Results The procedure was completed in all but one patient, who was converted to open surgery because the contraction of the urethra. The mean operation time was 130 min (110 to 145 min) for unilateral cases (13), and 242 min (225 to 250 min) for bilateral cases. The patients were discharged form hospital 9 to 12 days after the operation, and were followed up fro 6 months to 5 years with a mean of 3.8 years. During this period, MUC showed no ureteral reflux. One of the cases developed mild infection of the urethra, and was cured by circumcision. Conclusion Pneumocystoscopy is effective for congenital malformation of the vesicoureteral junction.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic outcome and its influencing factors after laparoscopic conservative surgery in treatment of tubal pregnancy. Methods From January 2003 to December 2008, 226 cases with tubal pregnancy were treated by laparoscopic conservative surgery. The tubal pateacy was evaluated in 152 cases given by hysterosalpingography (HSG) and 6 cases given by second laparoscopic exploration at 3-6 months after surgery. In their first laparoscopic surgeries, 209 got successful treatment and 19 underwent fail treatment. At 3-6 months after surgery, 89 cases with tubal patency among 207 cases with successful treatment were enrolled in group A. Nineteen cases who were failed in their first laparoscopic conservative surgery and treated by salpingectomy and 63 cases with tubal obstruction were enrolled in group B. The rate of tubal patency was calculated on patients with characteristics of gestational sac less or more than 5 era, the level serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) less than 2000 IU/L,2000 IU/L to 5000 IU/L, and more than 5000 IU/L Results There was no significant difference in age,parity, amenorrhea, location of tubal pregnancy, rupture, pelvic adhesion between group A and group B.Two hundred and seven cases (91.6%, 207/226) were successfully treated at initial laparescopy. One hundred and fifty-two cases got follow up and 55 cases lost follow up at 3 to 6 months after surgery. There was statistical difference in preoperative hCG value which median were 980 (55-12 000) IU/L in group A,3150 (570-40 000) IU/L in group B(P<0.01); the diameter of tubal gestational sac were (3.4±1.3)cm in group A and (5.0±1.7) cm in group B(P<0.01); respectively, the volume of peritoneal bleeding were 200 (0-1500) ml and 300 (0-1600) ml, the rate of live tubal embryo was 2% (2/89) in group A and 11% (9/82) in group B, which all reached statistical difference (P<0. 05). Among 171 cases in both group A and 8, the rate of tubal patency were 65% (67/103) in 103 cases with maximal diameter of tubal gestational sac less than 5 cm and 32% (22/68) in 68 cases with maximal diameter of tubal gestational sac more than 5 cm, which reached statistical difference (P < 0.01). The rate were 72% (73/102) in patients with serum level of hCG less than 2000 IU/L, 29% (12/42)in patients with 2000 IU/L to 5000 IU/L and 15% (4/27)in patients with more than 5000 IU/L, which also showed statistical difference (P <0.05). It was observed that preoperative serum hCG level (OR=0.277, P<0.01), the maximal diameter of gestational sac (OR=0.577, P<0.01) and the volume of peritoneal bleeding (OR=0.999, P < 0.05) were significant factors influencing successful laparoscopy treatment by logistical regression analysis.Conclusion In order to preserve fertility, laparoscopic conservative surgery was a safe and feasible approach in treatment of tubal pregnancy. Preoperative serum hCG levels, size of tube gestational sac were significant factors influencing successful laparoscopic surgery.

AIM:To establish a kind of simple and efficient method for cell-free fetal DNA ( cff-DNA) enrich-ment and to investigate its range of applications and the advantages and disadvantages.METHODS:(1) The single nucleo-tide polymorphisms( SNPs) , which linked to paternalβ-thalassemia mutations, were screened.We analyzed the contact be-tween the SNPs inβ-thalassemia gene ( HBB gene) and haploid type by the Haploview software, and then selected these close SNPs which have higher heterozygosity with the HBB gene.(2) We selected 4 cases of different β-thalassemia muta-tions with their husband, and then we used TT-FAST-COLD-PCR to enrich the IVS-II-654 mutations in maternal plasma.If the IVS-II-654 mutation was not detected, we detected the SNP which linked to the IVS-II-654 mutation.Similarly, we used TT-FULL-COLD-PCR to enrich the CD41-42 mutations in the maternal plasma.At the same time, we used the conventional PCR to enrich CD41-42 mutation and IVS-II-654 mutation in the maternal plasma.RESULTS:(1) Nine cases of the SNP ( rs7480526) linked to the mutation at IVS-II-654 in HBB gene, and 11 cases of the SNP ( rs10768683) linked to the muta-tion at CD41-42 in HBB gene were detected.( 2 ) We detected 1 case who inherited the paternal β-thalassemia mutation (IVS-II-654).We did not directly detect patermal IVS-II-654 mutation in maternal plasma, but detected the SNP linked to the IVS-II-654 mutation in the other case and had 100%detection, and 2 cases inherited the paternal β-thalassemia muta-tions (CD41-42) in the maternal plasma by TT-FULL-COLD-PCR and had 100%detection.However, we detected nothing by conventional PCR.CONCLUSION:TT-COLD-PCR is applicable to enrich cell-free fetal DNA in maternal plasma and is a method in the field of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis.

AIM: To explore the histopathologic changes of Reis-Bücklers corneal dystrophy ( RBCD) . · METHODS: Cornea buttons were obtained from patients in 1 pedigree who underwent lamella keratoplasty. Sections with HE and special staining which included symplectic blue staining and Masson staining and Congo red staining were observed under light microscope. Two normal cornea specimens ( donated corneas from eye bank) were used as control. ·RESULTS:In those patients, the bowman's membrane disappeared. The main lesion was in bowman's membrane through HE staining, positive through PAS Congo red staining and Masson staining, negative through symplectic blue staining. ·CONCLUSION: The Reis-Bücklers corneal dystrophy is characterized as geographic map-like lesion of bowman's membrane, and the abnormal extracellular deposit is amyloid protein fiber.

AIM:To evaluate the short-term efficacy of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation for moderate to high myopia.METHODS:Fifty-three eyes of 27 patients with moderate to high myopia (-3.25 to-21.5D) were received posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation with 2.8mm clear corneal incision.Changes of visual acuity, intraocular pressure(IOP), counts of endothelial cells and surgically induced astigmatism at 1mo after surgery were observed.RESULTS:The preoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA LogMAR) were 0.05±0.18, the postoperative BCVA at 1d were 0.02±0.14, the postoperative BCVA at 1wk were-0.05±0.11, the postoperative BCVA at 1mo were-0.07±0.10.The postoperative BCVA were statistically significant differences in different time(P<0.05).The preoperative endothelial cell count was 2932.5±270.8/mm2, the postoperative endothelial cell count at 1d was 2917.1±299.0/mm2;the postoperative endothelial cell count at 1wk was 2902.5±288.6/mm2;the postoperative endothelial cell count at 1mo was 2855.3±284.2/mm2.The postoperative endothelial cell count was not statistically significant differences in different time.The preoperative IOP was 15.8±2.5mmHg;the postoperative IOP at 1d was 15.3±2.9mmHg;the postoperative IOP at 1wk was 17.4±5.8mmHg;the postoperative IOP at 1mo were 15.8±2.6mmHg.The preoperative IOP was significantly different compared with postoperative IOP at 1d, 1wk and 1mo.The postoperative IOP at 1d and 1wk were statistically significant differences (P<0.05).The surgically induced astigmatism at 1d was 0.74±0.39D;the surgically induced astigmatism at 1wk was 0.57±0.28D;the surgically induced astigmatism at 1mo was 0.44±0.21D.The postoperative IOP were statistically significant differences in different time (P<0.05).The preoperative anterior chamber depth was 3.26±0.25mm;the postoperative central vault at 1d were 654.5±345.2μm;the postoperative central vault at 1mo were 683.0±211.7μm.The postoperative central vault were significantly different between that at 1d and 1mo after operations.Operations went without serious complications.CONCLUSION:Posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens implantation for moderate to high myopia were safe, effective and predictability.But long-term effect remains needed to be further follow-up.

To investigate the advantage of using the medical sodium hyaluronate gel undergo goniosynechialysis, and to compare the difference of the viscoelastic agent and perfusion fluid by clinical control study.
●METHODS:Totally 103 cases (103 eyes) patients who had angle- closure glaucoma (ACG) with cataract all in Beijing Tongren Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, from September 2012 to February 2013. All the patients had primary glaucoma or recurrence ACG with cataract. Their intraocular pressure (lOP) could be controlled in normal value using one or two anti -glaucoma medications. We divided all the patients into two groups by chance. Experimental group had 53 cases (50 eyes), and control group had 50 cases (53 eyes). Two groups all had been performed phacoemulsification combined with goniosynechialysis by the same experiential operator. But experimental group did goniosynechialysis using the medical sodium hyaluronate gel, control group did goniosynechialysis using perfusion fluid. We observed the change of lOP, central anterior chamber depth and anterior chamber structure of two groups in postoperative 1mo.
●RESULTS: SPSS19. 0 statistics software was utilized to analyze the data, This study selected one- side test α =0. 05, adopted paired t - test or two- sample t - test. We obtained that experimental group lOP decreased 12. 42 ± 0. 04mmHg, anterior chamber depth increased 1. 276 ± 0. 201mm; that control group lOP decreased 6. 56 ± 0. 08mmHg, anterior chamber depth increased 0. 852 ± 0. 132mm. And experimental group anterior chamber angle opened more widely than the other group, the comparison had statistical significance (P<0. 05).
●CONCLUSlON: ln phacoemulsification combine with goniosynechialysis,use medical sodium hyaluronate gel do goniosynechialysis can more effectively decrease lOP. This because the medical sodium hyaluronate gel has high glutinousness, it can separate angle of anterior chamber and controlling lOP effectively.
