Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of tension-free vaginal tape(TVT) procedure in the treatment with elder female stress incontinence(SUI). Methods Six patients with proven SUI were undergone the TVT with SPRAC. Results Six patients were operated under low spinal anesthesia. Mean operation time was 31.6 minutes and the mean blood loss was 36.2 ml. Five patients were able to micturate spontaneously within 24 hours after operation. One patient with fatty and vaginal colpoptosis was in-dwelling catheter for one week. Patients were followed-up for 10-28 months. Five patients were completely cured and one patient was failed after operation three months. Two patients were de novo urgency. One patient complained of persistent suprapubic discomfort. Conclusions The tension-free vaginal tape operation is a safe and effective surgical procedure for the treatment of urinary stress incontinence with fatty vaginal colpoptosis in elderly females.

Objective To investigate factors affecting the metastasis of lymph nodes around the root of inferior mesenteric artery(IMA) in rectal cancer,and the significance of root lymph nodes dissection of IMA in radical surgery for rectal cancer.Methods Clinicopathological data of 105 rectal cancer patients undergoing root lymph node dissection of IMA during radical resection in Peking University First Hospital from January 2005 to December 2008 were analyzed retrospectively.Rectal cancer patients without root lymph node dissection of IMA during the same period served as control.Results were compared between these two groups for survival and local recurrence rates.Results The rate of lymph node metastasis around the origin of IMA was 9.5％ (10/105).The five-year survival rate in patients with IMA root nodal dissection was 71.3％,and that without was 70.6％ (P =0.995),while the local recurrence was respectively 1.9％ and 7.4％ (P ＜ 0.05).In multivariate analyses,IMA root nodal metastasis occurred more frequently in patients with pT3 and pT4 tumor(Wald =5.764,P ＜ 0.05) and poorly differentiated tumor(Wald =7.818,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Root lymph nodes dissection of IMA could not increase five-year survival rate,but it could reduce local recurrence rate in patients with rectal cancer.In radical surgery of rectal cancer,lymphadenectomy of IMA root should be performed in patients with T3 and T4 tumor with poorly differentiated tumor,so as to reduce local recurrence rate.

Objective To search for the reasons of high positive rate of amotile bacteria and the diagnosis of septicemia in new-born Methods The blood was drawn from the different site of the new-born with septicemia and carricd out blood culture. The drug sensitivity test had been done by the method of paper stripdiffusion. The plasmids of bacteria were extracted rapidly by medified Birnboim method and the plasmid analyss was carried out. The plasmids's DNA of 35 epidemic strain was cut off by both restriction enzyme of Hind Ⅲ and EcoR Ⅰ. The outer membrane protein (OMP) was determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.Results There are 51 patients with positive blood culture amotile bacterium,of them, pollution; 35 cases (68．6%), septicemia: only 16 cases (31．4%),54．8% (57/104) strains bacteria have drug resistance to more of 12 drugs. 87．3% (165/189) strains bacteria have plasmids. They are cut off as 6 DNA fragments (1．9,2,4,5, 8．5 and 18Kb) by Hind Ⅲ restrietion enzyme. and as 5 DNA fragments (2,2．6,3．2, 6．3 and 22 Kb) by EcoR Ⅰrestrietion enzyme, it is showed that they come from a same clone. The epidemic strain include 10 slips OMP, but non-epidemic strain have 11 slip OMP, increase a 25Kd belt. The amotile bacteria with above-mentioned plasmid spectrum, restriction enzyme spectrum and OMP spectrum are only seen in the air, therapeutic dish and syringe needle.Conclusion The pollution is an important reason of amotile bactorium high positiye rate in new-born.Diagnosing septicemia should depend on bacteria culture, plasmid analysis restriction enzyme analysis of plasmid DNA, oMP determination and combining medical history and clinical manifestation.

Objective To examine the association of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin(NGAL) and interleukin 18(IL-18) with acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients after cardiac surgery. Methods Thirty-three patients undergone cardiac surgery were divided into AKI group and non-AKI group according to the AKI criteria. The Scr, urinary NGAL and IL-18 were measured at different time points. Results Nine of 33 patients (27.27%)developed postoperative AKI, and Scr concentration in AKI group reached its peak within 12-48 hours after cardiac surgery. Urinary concentrations of NGAL and IL-18 at 2 h and 4 h after cardiac surgery were significantly higher than those before operation in AKI patients (P<0.01). The urinary concentrations of NGAL at each time point and that of IL-18 at 2 h and 4 h after cardiac surgery in AKI patients were significantly higher than those in non-AKI patients. After correction by urinary creatinine, the differences of NGAL/Ucr and IL-18/Ucr ratios were still significant (P< 0.01). For concentrations of urinary NGAL, IL-18 and ratios of NGAL/Ucr, IL-18/Ucr at 2 h after surgery, sensitivities and specificities were good with cutoff values at 250 μg/L, 250 μg/mmol and 1800 ng/L, 1800 ng/mmol, respectively. Urinary concentration of NGAL at 2 h after cardiac surgery was positively correlated with Scr at 12 h postoperation in AKI group (r=0.638, P<0.05).Conclusions The incidence of AKI in patients after cardiac surgery is quite high. Urinary concentrations of NGAL, IL-18 and ratios of NGAL/Ucr, IL-18/Ucr at 2 h after cardiac surgery are the early diagnostic markers for AKI, among which urinary NGAL/Ucr is the most sensitive one.

Objective To verify the safety and advantages of total transperitoneal laparoscopic nephroureterectomy (ttLNU) in the treatment of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).Methods From Jun.2013 to Jun.2014,there were 13 UTUC patients treated with ttLNU,including 7 males and 6 females.The mean age was 70.4 ± 8.3 yrs,and BMI was 23.3±4.1.Of them,11 cases were diagnosed with renal pelvis carcinoma,6 in the left and 5 in the right.2 cases were diagnosed with left ureteral carcinoma.TNM stages were T1-T3N0M0.Patients were put on lateral position and the position was not changed during the operation.A ttLNU was performed,and the specimen was removed from the middle extended inferior umbilical incision.Results The mean operative time was 188±33 (150-240) min,the intraoperative blood loss was 150.5±60.1 (50-700) ml,and the time of out-of-bed activity was between 1 and 4 d.The mean postoperative drainage time was 6.8±4.6 (3-6) d.The mean postoperative bowel function recovery time was 1.5± 1.0 (2-4) d and postoperative hospital stay was 12.8±7.0 (3-27) d.The ttLNU procedures were successfully performed in all cases without conversion to open surgery.Pathological results showed urothelial carcinoma in all cases,including 8 high grade and 5 low grade.All the surgical margins were negative.The followed up was from 2 to 12 mon,and there was no tumor recurrence and metastasis found.Conclusions Total transperitoneal laparoscopic nephroureterectomy in the treatment of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma is characterized by short operative time,low blood loss,decreased trauma and quick recovery.This is a safe and effective treatment option for the treatment of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of treating glioma in combination with drugs multiply by comparing the size of tumor and the survival time of different groups in rat glioma after targeted blood-brain barrier (BBB ) disruption by MRI-guided focused ultrasound.Methods The stereotaxis instruments and the 10 μl gas-tight syringes were used to inject gliosarcoma cells into the targeted area of the brain in 50 male Sprague-Dawley rats.The glioma-bearing rat model was established.Each rat received either:(1 )no treatment (control;n =8);(2)single liposomal doxorubicin (DOX;n = 10);(3)multiple DOX (n =10);(4)single Avastin (AVS)and DOX (n =10);(5)multiple AVS and DOX (n =10).The SonoVue microbubble ultrasonic contrast agent and DOX or AVS were injected into the tail vein respectively on day 12 after implantation.The tumor size was measured by MRI on pre-treatment,immediacy and once a week of post-treatment after targeted BBB disruption by focused ultrasound,and the life span in rat glioma was recorded.Results The mediam survival of different groups in rat glioma(The range of the life span 13-90 d):no treatment (7 d);single DOX (12 d);multiple DOX (1 5 d);single AVS + DOX (22 d), multiple AVS+ DOX (30 d).There was significant difference of the groups on mediam survival comparison (P < 0.01 ).The tumor growth pattern after post-treatment of different groups in rat glioma except control:single DOX was noticeable fast and multiple AVS+DOX was visibly delayed comparable to other groups,and finally the tumor size of multiple AVS + DOX even became small.Conclusions The microbubble blasting enhances the local tissue permeability and promotes the drug delivery of chemotherapy and anti-angiogenesis locally in glioma-bearing rats by MRI-guided focused ultrasound.Especially,the combination with drugs multiply has a synergism efficacy that may enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy,reduce tumor growth,and even become small of the tumor size,and increase survival time significantly after BBB disruption.

Objective To evaluate total pelvic exenteration (TPE) in the treatment of locally recurrent rectal cancer (LRRC). Methods Clinical data of 35 patients with LRRC who underwent TPE between 1989 and 2003 were analyzed retrospectively. Results Thirty patients underwent TPE, the remaining 2 did sphincter-preserving TPE, 2 with lower sacrectomy and 1 with hemipelvectomy, among them 80% cases received radical resection. Operative mortality rate was 3%, and morbidity rate was 51%. The overall post TPE tumor local recurrence rate was 48%. The 5-year survival rate was 16% in all cases and 19% in radical resection group. The 5-year survival rate in patients without lymph node metastasis was 24%, and 0 in patients with metastasis. Conclusion Effective TPE treatment lies in strict patient selection and radical resection.

Objective To analyze the role of tissue factor (TF) regulating the invasive ability of human colorectal carcinoma cells (HT-29). Method The plasmids pcDNA3.1/Zeo bearing either sense or antisense TFcDNA were transfected into HT-29 cells by lipofactamine 2000. TF proteins in transfectants and its parental cells were detected by Western blot. Matrigel invasion assays and nude mice inoculation assays were used to show the invasive ability of cancer cells in vitro and in vivo respectively. Microvessel density of the implanted tumors was counted. Result HT-29 cells with sense-TFcDNA transfection upregulated TF expression and invasive ability compared with the parental cells, and tumor tissues after sense transfection were of greater microvessel density than the parental cells. HT-29 cells transfected with antisense-TFcDNA had a downregulated TF expression and are of less microvessel density. Conclusion Positive TF expression increases the invasive ability of HT-29 cell in vitro and in vivo.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical diagnosis and surgical treatment of primary retroperitonealneurilemoma(schwannoma). MethodsClinicaldataof 47patientsof primary retroperitoneal schwannoma admitted and surgically treated from January 1995 to December 2009 were retrospectivelly reviewed.ResultsAs diagnosed by pathology there were 36 cases of Benign schwannoma,with a median age at onset of 41years, among those 11 patients were symptomatic, and 25 were asymptomatic. There were 11 malignant 11 cases, the median age was 38 years, among those 6 patients were symptomatic, and 5 were asymptomatic. The positive diagnostic rate of preoperative CT and MRI were 36. 2％ ( 17/47 ) and 58. 3％ ( 7/12 ) respectively. Immunohistochemically positive rates of S-100 were 100％ and 81.8％(9/11) in benign and malignant group respectively.All cases underwent surgical treatment. Surgical resection rates for benign and malignant groups were 100％ and 90. 9％(10/11)respectively. There was no perioperative death, Overall 5-year survival rates were 100％ and 45.5％ for benign and malignant tumors groups respectively. In benign group 2 cases recurred, in malignant group 4 cases recurred, and 3 had distant metastasis.ConclusionsPrimary retroperitoneal schwannomas are less common. It is difficult to make an accurate preoperative diagnosis. Surgery is the most effective therapy.Prognosis is good for benign and poor for malignant retroperitoneal neurilemomas.

Objective To investigate the surgical treatment strategies and prognostic factors of cT4bM0 primary rectal cancer.Methods The clinical data of 53 patients with cT4bM0 primary rectal cancer who were admitted to the First Hospital of Peking University from January 2000 to December 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.All the patients received en-bloc multivisceral resection and postoperative chemotherapy.The survival and prognostic factors were analyzed.The patients were followed up via out-patient examination,phone call or mail,and the follow-up was ended till December 2012.The survival curve was drawn using the Kaplan-Meier method,and the survival was analyzed using the Log-rank test.Uni-and multivariate analysis were done using chisquare test and COX's proportional hazard model.Results Of all the 53 patients,20 received posterior pelvic exenteration (PPE),20 received total pelvic exenteration (TPE),3 received low anterior resection (LAR) +local resection of ballder,2 received LAR + ovariectomy,2 received LAR + local resection of ureter,1 received LAR + local resection of posterior vaginal wall,1 received LAR + vesiculectomy and vesectomy,3 received abdominoperineal resection (APR) + local resection of posterior vaginal wall,1 received APR + sacrectomy.R0 resection was achieved in all the patients.No intraoperative death was observed,and the incidence of postoperative complication was 9.4％ (5/53).The results of postoperative pathological examination showed that 2 patients were with well-differentiated adenocarcinoma,41 with moderate-differentiated adenocarcinoma,and 10 with poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma.Twenty-four patients were with lymph node metastasis.Four patients were in TNM stage Ⅰ,25 in TNM stage Ⅱ and 24 in TNM stage Ⅲ.Fifty-three patients were followed up postoperatively,and the median time for follow-up was 33 months (range,4-116 months).The overall 5-year survival rates was 57.3％.The 5-year survival rate for patients with or without lymph node metastasis were 77.1％ and 30.4％,respectively,with significant difference between the 2 groups (x2 =7.374,P ＜ 0.05).The 5-year survival rates of patients with malignant infiltration and inflammatory adhesion mere 51.0％ and 68.5％,with no significant difference (x2=1.148,P ＞0.05).The 5-year survival rates of patients with malignant infiltration and inflammatory adhesion in stage Ⅱ were 74.6％ and 85.7％,with no significant difference between the 2 groups (x2=0.118,P ＞ 0.05).The 5-year survival rates of patients with malignant infiltration and inflammatory adhesion in stage Ⅲ were 28.8％ and 37.5％,with no significant difference between the 2 groups (x2 =0.959,P ＞ 0.05).The results of univariate analysis showed that lymph node metastasis and TNM stage were the risk factors influencing the prognosis of patients with cT4bM0 primary rectal cancer (x2=6.468,6.596,P ＜ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that lymph node metastasis was the independent risk factor (RR =3.797,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions En-bloc multivisceral resection should be the first surgical treatment choice for patients with cT4bM0 primary rectal cancer,and lymph node metastasis is the independent risk factor.Under the same N stage,the prognosis of patients with malignant infiltration or inflammatory adhesion is similar if R0 resection is achieved.
