Chinese Journal of Urology 2001;0(07):-
Objective To evaluate retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy. Methods From June of 1999 to January of 2001, retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy was performed on 52 patients with adrenal diseases, including 34 cases of aldosterone-preducing adenoma,3 nodular hyperplasia bilateral in 1, 5 Cushing's syndrom,1 Cushing's disease, 3 adrenal pheochromacytoma (bila- teral in 1), 4 nonfunctional adrenal adenoma, 1 myelolipoma and 1 metastasis carcinoma. Results 54 sessions of retroperitoneal adrenalectomy have been carried out for 52 patients (2 on both sides) with success in 51 procedures. The procedure was converted to open operation in 3 occasions because of bleeding or adhesion. The mean operation time was 135 minutes (40~270 min), and the estimated blood loss 45 ml (5~150 ml) with no need of transfusion. The postoperative hospital stay was 6 d (3~14 d) and the mean analgesia consumed 8.5 mg (0~50 mg) of morphine equivalents with no need of any analgesic at all in 17 patients. Conclusions Retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy was less traumatic to the patients, with less postoperative discomfort and quicker recovery. The procedure should be considered as the first choice of therapy for benign adrenal diseases.

6.Sympathetic skin response in different regions of the palm after median or ulnar nerve injury
Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2010;32(11):832-834
Objective To explore sympathetic skin response (SSR) in the region innervated only by the median or ulnar nerve. Methods Thirty healthy volunteers, ten patients with median nerve injury, ten patients with ulnar nerve injury and three patients with both median and ulnar nerve injury were involved in the study. SSR was elicited by electrical stimulation and the latency and amplitude of the SSR were recorded in the center of the palm and on the hypothenar, and the pulps of the index and little fingers. Results After median nerve injury the SSR of the index finger pulp disappeared, the SSR amplitude of the palmar center was reduced, while the SSR amplitude of the little finger pulp was normal. In contrast, after ulnar nerve injury the SSR of the little finger pulp disappeared,the SSR amplitude of the hypothenar was reduced, while the SSR of the index finger pulp was normal. When both nerves were injured, no SSR could be elicited anywhere on the palm. Conclusions The SSR of the palmar center and hypothenar are affected by both the median and ulnar nerves. The index and little finger pulps are sites for recording SSR which represent the SSR of the median and ulnar nerve distribution, respectively. Index and little finger pulps are ideal sites for detec t ing efferent functioning of sympathetic nerves from the median and ulnar nerve paths,respectively.
7.Subsequent laparoscopic adrenalectomy for patients with previously undergoing ipsilateral adrenal surgery or nephrectomy
Chinese Journal of Urology 2001;0(03):-
Objective To evaluate the feasibility of transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy for 3 patients with primary aldosteronism who previously underwent ipsilateral adrenal surgery or nephrectomy. Methods From October 2003 to March 2004,transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy was performed on 3 male patients with primary aldosteronism,including 2 patients (39 and 72 years,respectively) who had previously undergone ipsilateral retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy for Conn’s adenoma and 1 patient (42 years) who had previously undergone ipsilateral open nephrectomy for renal tuberculosis. Results Transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy was successfully performed on all the 3 patients; no complication occurred.The mean tumor size was average 1.7 cm in greatest dimension;the mean operative time was average 93 min;the mean estimated blood loss was average 18 ml,and no one needed blood transfusion.The postoperative food intake time was average 17 h,and postoperative hospital stay was average 5.0 d. Conclusions Although scar and adhesion of previous operation may present more difficulties in the subsequent operation,it is feasible to perform transperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy through different surgical access on the patients who have previously underwent ipsilateral retroperitoneal adrenal or nephric surgery.

Objective To investigate renal interstitial fibrosis and the expression of inflammatory factor in mice kedney with the Unilateral Ureteral Obstruction(UUO).Methods Mice were randomly assigned to shame operation group (shame proup ), UUO group. The protein expression of?-SMA and Vimentin were assessed by immunohistochemistry and the protein expression of ICAM-1 were assessed by Western-blotting; MCP-1 mRNA were detected by using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analyses(RT-PCR). Results In comparison with the shame group, the mRNA expression, protein levels of ?-SMA, Vimentin of UUO mice groups increased significantly. At the same timre, the protein expression ICAM-1 and the mRNA expression MCP-1 in UUO mice significantly higher than normal group.Conclusions Unilateral ureteral obstruction could induce the transdifferentiation of renal interstitial cells. It may partially related to the high expression of ICAM-1and MCP-1.
