Objective To discuss anatomic landmarks during retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy. Methods A total of 46 patients underwent retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomies from November 2002 to July 2004.The first trocar was introduced at the union of the site 2 cm below the 12 th costal margin with the lateral side of the musculus sacrospinalis.The second trocar was placed at the midpoint of the upper border of the iliac crest,or at the location above and medial to the anterior superior iliac spine.And the third one was inserted at the union of the anterior axillary line with the costal margin.In the first place,the greater psoas muscle was identified as the dorsal marker.Then the diaphragmatic muscle was identified as the posterior marker of the upper pole of the kidney,and the adrenal gland as the medial marker of the upper pole of the kidney,and the peritoneum as the ventral marker.The renal vein lay below and anterior to the renal artery.The right renal vein was routinely sperated right up to the joining site with the inferior vena cava.A linear cutter was used to resect the renal vein and artery respectively. Results The mean operation time was 145 min (range, 60~ 255 min) and the mean intraoperative blood loss was 133 ml (range, 20~1 000 ml). Adrenalectomy was performed in 32 patients (69 6%). A conversion to open surgery was required in 1 patient because anatomic landmarks could not be well seen. The inferior vena cava was wrongly closed off by 1/2 cross-section when using a linear cutter to sever the right renal vein in 1 patient. Peritoneal injuries happened in 4 patients.Follow-up was carried out for 1~20 months (mean,9 months) in all the 46 patients.One patient died of liver metastasis 1 year after the surgery, while the remaining 45 patients survived without recurrence. Conclusions Proper identification of anatomic landmarks is crucial to a successful retroperitoneoscopic nephrectomy.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy. Methods A total of 46 patients (24 males and 22 females;age range,23-86 years;mean age,58 years) underwent retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy from November 2002 to July 2004.Of the 46 cases,43 were detected by B-ultrasound during physical examination and the rest 3,when visiting doctors due to painless hematuria.The masses by B-ultrasound was on average 4.5 cm (range,1.5-8.0 cm) in diameter, with 17 masses at the upper pole of the kidney,13 at the middle and 16 at the inferior pole.CT scan was performed on all the 46 cases and MRI,on 41.The tumor size detected by CT and MRI was consistent with that by B-ultrasound.Preoperatively,3 cases had the tumors of clinical stage T 1N 0M 0,38 of T 2N 0M 0 and 5 of T 3aN 0M 0. Results The operative time was 60-255 min (mean,145 min),and blood loss was 20-1000 ml (mean,133 ml).Adrenalectomy was performed on 32 patients (70%).Complications occurred in 3 cases,of whom only 1 required conversion to open surgery due to injury of genital gland vein,with blood loss of 1000 ml.Pathology showed that 41 cases were of renal clear cell carcinoma,2 of cystic renal cell carcinoma,1 of chromophobe carcinoma,1 of hamartoma and 1 of oxyphil cell tumor.During the follow-up of 1-20 months (mean,9 months),45 patients survived;only 1 died of liver metastasis. Conclusions Retroperitoneoscopy radical nephrectomy is safe and effective.

Objective To detect the levels of plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and investigate its relationship with liver function, ascites and heart structure in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods The levels of plasma NT-proBNP and various clinical and biochemical parameters were determined in 60 patients with liver cirrhosis and 30 healthy controls. Meanwhile Child-Pugh liver function was classified. All people underwent color Doppler echocardiography. Results The level of plasma NT-proBNP was significantly elevated in patients with liver cirrhosis [(38.63±36.05)pmol/L], compared with that of the controls [(7.50±8.25)pmol/L],P<0.01. There was no significant difference in different Child-Pugh class and aseites amount of liver cirrhosis. E/A < 1 and E wave decelerate time (EDT) was in-creased in liver cirrhosis. Conclusion The levels of plasma NT-proBNP in liver cirrhosis are significantly elevated, and related to early impairment of diastolic function. But it does not correlate with liver function and aseites.

Objective To investigate the levels of adiponectin and the relation with insulin and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)- ? in patients with cirrhosis. Methods Adiponectin,insulin and TNF-? levels were determined in 73 patients with cirrhosis and 30 healthy controls, and were correlated with various clinical and biochemical parameters. Meanwhile Child-Pugh liver function was classified. Results Adiponectin was significantly elevated in patients with cirrhosis compared with the control. Adiponectin levels in cirrhosis was correlated positively with insulin and negatively with insulin sensitively index,and did not correlate with TNF-? and liver function.Conclusion Serum adiponectin levels in cirrhosis are significantly elevated. Adiponectin levels do not correlate with TNF-? and liver function, but exclusively insulin and insulin sensitivity index.
