2.Current indications for open kidney stone surgery
Ho Chi Minh city Medical Association 2004;4(5):286-287
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

4.Medical abortion method with mifepristone-misoprostol in Viet Nam
Journal of Practical Medicine 2003;466(11):12-15
From Jan to Dec 2001, in 8 studied institutions, an internal clinical trials were performed on 1.520 women of > 18 years old, with < 57 day in uterus pregnancy, who went a medical abortion using 200 mg mifepristone and 400 mg oral misoprostol two days after. Results showed a success of this procedure on 90% of abortion women. Choosing by oneself, 88% of women preferred to choose oral misoprostol used at home and 12% at consultative room. This method of abortion is safe, effective, capable to use widely in various health care levels

6.Some biological features of newborns deliveried at Obstetric and Gynecology Deparment of Bach Mai Hospital during 5 years from 1995 to 1999
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;503(2):9-12
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

7.Current opinions on genitourinary injuries (Part 2: lower genitourinary tract)
Ho Chi Minh city Medical Association 2005;10(4):214-220
Current opinions on diagnosis and management of lower genitourinary injury: in bladder, urethra and outside genital organ. Bladder trauma included bladder tear and bladder break (break in and outside of peritoneum). Retrograde urethrography with contrast media was a standard method in diagnosis of bladder break. Treatment: bladder sutured operation was absolute indicated for break in peritoneum; break outside of peritoneum could be treated by putting a large size urethra tube. In urethra injury: 37-93% cases of posterior urethral break and at least 75% cases of anterior urethral break experienced bleeding symptoms. Diagnosis method: retrograde urethrography with contrast media. Treatment: percutaneous cystostomy and urethral imaging test performed just before intervention. Outside genital organ’s trauma accounted for 1/3-2/3 of urogenital organ trauma. The injury was common in male, rarely in vulva of female. In cases of skin loss of penis or testicle, they were conservative treated. A partial or total urethra break needed to suture one-stage on catheter to make barrel and urine intubation

9.Neurogenic bladder - Diagnosis and treatment
Ho Chi Minh city Medical Association 2005;10(5):301-303
It is very difficult to diagnose and treat the condition of neurogenic bladder or neurogenic voiding dysfunction. Causes of neurogenic bladder are central nervous system disorders. Diagnosis is based on urodynamic investigations. 80% of patients with neurogenic bladder can be treated by internal medicine therapies, but it is necessary to diagnose correctly the type of disorders (brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves…) and to define exactly activities of muscle of bladder, urethral sphincter. Targets of treatment are preserving renal functions and improving urinary incontinence. Besides, there are some surgical procedures
