Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of 1.9 μm thulium laser with transurethral resection of bladder tumor(TURBT) for the treatment of superficial bladder cancer.Methods We reviewed 53 patients with superficial bladder cancer,who were divided into 1.9 μm laser (n =25) and TURBT groups (n =28) from January 2013 to December 2015.The operation time,blood loss volume in operation,catheter indwelling time,hospital stay time,and complications,cumulative recurrence rate were compared between the two groups.Results Compared to TURBT group,1.9 μm laser group showed significantly lower rate of blood loss volume in operation (21.6 ± 4.6) min,catheter indwelling time (22.4 ± 6.4) h,hospital stay time (2.2 ± 0.7) d,less complications (12％)and recurrence(16％) (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions 1.9 μm thulium laser is safe and effective for the treatment of patients with superficial bladder cancer.The approach has less complications than TURBT.

Objective To evaluate the safety and feasibility of transurethral resection of paragangliomas in urinary bladder.Methods Clinical data of 11 patients (5 males and 6 females) with paragangliomas in urinary bladder who underwent transurethral resection in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from June 2008 to February 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.The age ranged from 30 to 76 years (mean 54± 14 years).All cases were diagnosed as single primary tumor.The preoperative CT or MRI showed the tumors located in bladder wall.The diameter of tumors ranged from 0.9-3.0 cm (mean 1.9±0.8).Nine cases presented with hypertension after micturition and 2 cases presented with sustained hypertension.The tumors were localized by B ultrasound,enhanced CT or MRI.The diagnosis was confirmed by detection of 24 hours urinary catecholamine,Octreotide scanning or 131I-MIBG scanning.Transurethral resection of tumors was performed after pharmachological preperation.Eight cases underwent conventional transurethral electroresection and 3 cases underwent transurethral resection with 2 μm thulium laser.All cases were followed up every 3 to 6 months and 24 hours urinary catecholamine and CT scan were performed.Results All tumors were successfully resected without open conversion.The operative time was 20 to 45 min (mean 34±8 min).The estimated blood loss ranged from 10 to 100 ml (mean 27±26 ml).Fluctuation of blood pressure during operation occurred in 9 cases.The maximum systolic blood pressure during operation rised to 220 mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) and sodium Nitroprusside was administed to control blood pressure.Blood pressure of all cases returned to normal after operation.No perioperative complications occurred.No recurrence was found during follow-up (3-58 months,mean 26 months).Conclusions For small localized paraganglioma (the diameter less than 3 cm) in urinary bladder,transurethral resection could be a safe and feasible choice of treatment.And 2 μm thulium laser resection has an advantage over conventional electroresection for tumors located in lateral bladder wall to avoid obturator nerve reflex.

Aromatic amine compounds are diverse, widely used, and highly toxic. They mainly exist in aerosol and vapor in workplace air. Occupational poisoning incidents caused by aromatic amine compounds occur from time to time. In China, occupational exposure limits have been established for only 11 aromatic amine compounds, with supporting detection methods developed only for four compounds： aniline, N-methylaniline, N,N-dimethylaniline, and p-nitroaniline. Most of the highly toxic and hazardous aromatic amine compounds do not have specific limit. Currently, regular sampling mediums for detecting aromatic amine compounds in the workplace air are absorbing solution, filter membrane, silica gel, and poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) resin. Regular detection methods are gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, fluorescence detection, and chromatography-mass spectrometry. However, these methods are mostly designed for detecting individual compounds or their specific forms, and there is a need to develop a detection method that can detect aromatic amine compounds existing in aerosol and vapor form simultaneously using a novel composite sampling tube.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of laparoscopic nephroureterectomy with bladder-cuff resection by TUR for upper urinary tract carcinoma. Methods Eighty-two patients with upper urinary tract transitional cell carcinoma(69 cases in renal pelvis and 13 in ureter)underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic nephroureterectomy and bladder-cuff resection by TUR. This group of cases was retrospectively summarized including operative time, blood loss, drainage mounting days, catheterizing days, post-operative complications and hospital stays. Results All 82 operation procedures were successfully performed without severe complication. The mean operative time was 135 minutes.The mean length of hospital stay was 7 days postoperatively. The mean time with drainage and Foley catheter were 3 days and 6 days respectively. Follow-up time ranged from 6 to 76 months for 74 patients. The 3-year carcinoma recurrence was 10.6% (5/47). Only 1 patient was found incision tumor recurrence in 8 month after the procedure. Conclusion Retroperitoneoscopic nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff resection by TUR could be a feasible procedure to treat upper urinary tract transitional cell carcinoma.

CONCLUSIONIt is a rapid and accurate method that the composition of compound prescription of traditional Chinese medicine can be identified in terms of the separation of ultra high performance liquid chromatography, the accurate molecurlar weights measured by MS and other information, which can trace to the source of compounds in Sinisan.

Objective:To compare the location and efficacy of femoral tunnel near-isometric reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) between the transtibial and assisted medial approaches.Methods:The clinical data of 47 patients were retrospectively analyzed who had been admitted by Department of Orthopaedics, The 904 Hospital of PLA for ACL rupture from January 2018 to December 2019. They were divided into 2 groups according to different surgical approaches. In groups A of 21 cases, there were 15 males and 6 females with an age of (29.5 ± 4.8) years and their ACL was reconstructed through the transtibial approach with adjustable Endobutton plate; in group B of 26 cases, there were 18 males and 8 females with an age of (31.2 ± 9.6) years and their ACL was reconstructed through the assisted medial approach with adjustable Endobutton plate. The 2 groups were compared in terms of location of femoral tunnel, Lysholm score and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score at the last follow-up, and anterior-posterior and rotational stability of the knee joint.Results:There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, showing comparability ( P>0.05). The 47 patients were followed up for 18 to 27 months (average, 22.3 months). As for the center of the inner opening of the femoral tunnel located by the four grid table method, the X-axis loci was 25.6% ± 2.5% and 26.7% ± 1.8% respectively in groups A and B, showing no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05) while the Y-axis loci 19.8% ± 2.0% and 30.6% ± 1.5% respectively in groups A and B, showing a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the lyholm scores were 90.9 ± 3.4 and 92.4 ± 3.9 and the IKDC scores 89.9 ± 3.5 and 90.2 ± 3.8 respectively in groups A and B, showing no significant difference between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference either in the results of front drawer test, Lachman test or axial displacement test between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:In femoral tunnel near-isometric reconstruction of ACL, the transtibial approach can result in a tunnel location which is closer to the top of the condyle than the assisted medial approach, but both approaches can lead to satisfactory curative efficacy in the short postoperative period.
