A survey was conducted in 7 provinces representative for 7 ecological zones of the country. The aim was to determine mother’s mortality, direct and indirect causes of the death and factors related to mother’s mortality of 61.341 women who gave birth living infants. The estimative of mother’s mortality was 165/100.000 living born children. The risk of mother mortality accounted for 1/334. Direct fatal causes included hemorrhage, pre-eclampsy, infection, complication of artificial abortion, uterin breakage, ectopic pregnancy… Indirect causes included heart disease, hepatitis or liver diseases, cerebrovascular accidents, tuberculosis and malaria. In addition, family factors, economic and culture factors, customs and behaviors were also the factors to ban the accessibility of women to reproductive health.

Implanon contraceptive medicine was used by 120 women aged 18-40 years old from September 2000 to December 2003. There was no case getting pregnancy. Blood pressure and body weight had not changed significantly. The bleeding pattern had changed in comparing with preferable for women were normal bleeding, spare bleeding and amenorrheoa - 88% -. Side effects manifested with low level and most decreased in comparing with that before the study.

200 patients over 18 years old were diagnosed with peptic ulcer. Two specimens were taken on each patient: from the corpus and 1/3 andral, which were put into each urease test hole. The results were diagnosed with H. pylori infection with urease test by reading biopsyspecimen after 1 hour and 24 hours. With 83.5% patient having used drugs before endoscopy, the percentage of H. pylori (+) from the corpus and the antral specimen is significantly different (65% vs 68.5%) but using specimens from both sites increases significantly the H. pylori positivity from 65% to 78%

The generalization of some comments about the role of imaging examination in diagnosis of renal trauma as non-preparative adominal tomography: has less value in diagnosis of renal trauma but helps to detect metanephric duct stone. Intravenous urography (UIV): these imagings are main to evaluate the rest of renal function, prevention of cases of traumatic renal excision, has less value in diagnosis of renal trauma. Adominal ultrasound: to detect suggestive signs of internal haemorrhage due to solid viscera breaking in abdomen. CT scan has an important role, to help identifying with or without renal trauma, the level of renal lesions, with or without other viscera lesions. Renal angiography: to block selectively vessels to make haemostatic in some cases of haemorrhage due to renal trauma. MRI is recommended for patients with contraindication of absolute using contrast media

The surgical management of kidney-stone disease has undergone dramatic changes over the past 20 years. The introduction and development of percutaneous renal surgery, extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy, ureteroscopy, and technical advances in the available modalities for intracorporeal lithotripsy have led to a revolution in the surgicalmanagement of kidney-stone disease. The indications for open kidney-stone surgery have been narrowed significantly, and for the most part open surgery has become a second or third line treatment option. In this article, the authors attempt to better define acceptable indications for open kidney-stone surgery, to review commonly accepted advantages of open stone procedures and to establish expected results and outcomes following open surgery for kidney-stone disease

Retrospective study included 6894 babies were born at Bach Mai Hospital from 1995 to 1999. Sex ratio was 51.1% boys versus 48.9% girls. Over-term fetal rate tended to increase (5.53%). Rate of cesarean section increased (19.38%). Average weight of infants was 3037 +/- 566g. Risk factors related to abnormalies of reproductive system: rate of congenital malformation was 0.88%, age of parents were under 20 years old at higher risk factor for having premature newborns with congenital malformation and low birth weight than older group. Parents who work in agricultural field have higher risk of having premature newborns with congenital malformation and low birth weight than those work in other fields. Women who had 3 deliveries or more wer more likely to have children with abnomalies than others
