Chinese Journal of Urology 2017;38(3):187-191
Objective To survey cognitive and processing mode of urethral distraction defect associated with pelvic fracture (PFUDD) in China and hope to find a reasonable treatment scheme for (PFUDD).Methods From Jan 2011 to Dem 2015,a questionnaire on surgical treatment for PFUDD was sent to 286 Chinese consultant urologists in more than 56 comprehensive hospitals throughout the China.The investigation includes the age of urologsit,the type of hospital,the number of patients treated during the last 5years,operation mode and optional time to do the surgery,the selection of operation approach,evaluation of the treatment effect were analyzed.At same time,we also investigated the methods of 260 cases about PFUDD.Results The age of the urologist were 30-55 years old.Over the past five years,229 urologists had fewer than 10 patients diagnosed each year,and only 57 had 10 patients diagnosed each year.There were many different kinds of operation method,including urethral realignment 36 (14%),direct vision internal urethrotomy 121 (46%),internal urethrotomy plus laser 57 (22%),trans-perineal urethral anastomosis 46(18%).The success rates were 58% (21/36),50% (60/121),46% (26/57),76% (35/46)respectively.70% (200/286) of specialists did an open exploration urethral realignment or cystostomy when patients were injured in 2-6 hours.28% (80/286) of specialists did urethral realignment with endoscopic surgery.About 75% (216/286) of specialists believed that the treatment of patients with posterior urethral atresia should follow the ladder principle.Minimally invasive methods at the start,including urethral dilation,direct vision internal urethrotomy was the first choice.They would prefer open surgery only after intial treatment failure.65% (186/286) of doctors believed that the overall outcome of the surgery was moderated.Conclusions Urethral distraction defect associated with pelvic fracture (PFUDD) was rare to be done.The direct vision internal urethrotomy was the first choice for most of the urologists(75%).They considered the urethroplast only after the failure of initial mini-invasive surgery.Trans-perineal urethral anastomosis had the best results.

Objective To elucidate the clinical features of nonspecific granulomatous prostatitis(NSGP). Methods From February 1994 to February 2002,26 cases of NSGP confirmed histologically were retrospectively analysed.Of them 20 cases were treated with anti-inflammatory therapy alone;4 cases with anti-inflammatory therapy plus ?-receptor blocker,and 2 cases who concomitantly had retention of urine underwent TURP. Results All the 26 patients were followed up for 6 to 42 months.The therapeutic results were satisfactory.The Qmax increased from 4.6~12.8 ml/s to 16~28 ml/s,and the hard prostate mass became soft,with reduction from 2.5 cm?3.5 cm to 0.5 cm?1.0 cm.The serum PSA decreased from 15.5~60.8 ng/ml to 1.5~10.6 ng/ml. Conclusions In clinical practice NSGP is often mistaken for prostatic carcinoma,so special attention should be paid to the differential diagnosis.The definite diagnosis depends on histopathological examination.

Objective To improve the diagnosis and treatment of renal oncocytoma. Methods The clinical data of 3 cases with renal oncocytoma treated from 1999 to 2002 were retrospectively analyzed and discussed with literature reviewed. The 3 tumors’size was 7.6 cm?8.5 cm?6.8 cm,10.0 cm?11.5 cm?9.8 cm,10.0 cm?8.0 cm?6.8 cm,respectively.The clinical features were atypical.Renal oncocytoma was characterized by homogeneous attenuation with a central, margined stellate area on CT scan. Results The 3 cases underwent nephrectomy,and the resected tumors were examined by pathology.On light microscopy,there was strong eosinophilic cytoplasm with granules,the tumor cells being tubular or adenoid in pattern with no necrosis and very rare or no mitosis.Enormous mitochondria were noted on electron microscopy.The immunohistochemical staining was positive for cytokeratin and EMA,whereas it was negative for vimentin.The follow-up lasted for 16 to 30 months without recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions Renal oncocytoma is a type of benign,parenchymatous tumor,and it has no specific clinical feature.The diagnosis can be established on histopathologic,immunohistochemical and electron microscopic studies.

Objective To evaluate bulbourethral sling procedure in the treatment of post prostatectomy incontinence. Methods 5 patients with post prostatectomy incontinence underwent the bulbourethral sling procedure.Preoperatively 1 patient was completely incontinent and 4 patients required a mean of 3.5 pads per day.The mean duration of incontinence was 4.5 years. A sling tension of a mean of 500 g was used to correct incontinence. Results 4 patients have been completely dry,whereas postoperative difficulty in voiding occurred in the other patient and was corrected by subsequent transurethral bladder neck revision resulting in free passage of urine and continence. Conclusions The bulbourethral sling procedure is an effective means in the treatment of post prostatectomy incontinence.

Objective To study the value of flexible cystoscopy in diagnosing posterior urethral strictures resulting from pelvic fracture and the pain score of the examination. Methods Between 2014 and 2015, 120 male patients with pelvic fracture urethral distraction defect were evaluated by cystoscopy before surgery. In this study, flexible cystoscopy was used in 87 patients, 33 patients received conventional rigid cystoscopy. The cystoscopy was introduced into the posterior urethra and the area was evaluated for the length of the proximal urethra and any possible fistulas, false passages, calculi or displacement of the posterior urethra. The patient’s pain feeling was recorded during the examination, 24 hrs after cystoscopy examination. The pain feeling result was achieved by visual analogue pain scale. Results Severe allergic reaction or obvious discomfort did not occur in any patients after cystoscopy. By comparing the data obtained from lfexible cystoscopy to those from conventional urethrography, the rate of detection in other abnormalities was higher in lfexible cystoscopy than in conventional urethrography. 21, 5, 7 and 5 patients were detected with calculus, posterior urethral structure damage, false passage and ifstula respectively. In comparison, the abnormalities were only observed in 3, 2, 3 and 1 patients respectively through conventional urethrography imaging. However, the pain feeling of the flexible cystoscopy is better than the convenional rigid cystoscopy. The statistical difference was found in the pain feeling score during the examination and later after the examination. Conclusions Flexible cystoscopy is a safe and valuable procedure in the evaluation of the posterior urethra in patients with pelvic fracture urethral distraction defect before surgery.
