Objective To evaluate mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy in treating superior segmental ureteral calculi. Methods Two Hundred and thirty-six patients underwent mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy with holmium laser for superior segmental ureteral calculi from May 2005 to May 2008, 133 male and 103 female. Their age ranged from 17 to 76 years old with a mean of 47. 2 years. Of the 236 patients,141 compli-cated with calculi in the left side and 88 cases in the right side,7 in the both sides. The calculi diameter ranged from 0. 7 cm to 2.2 cm and the mean diameter was 1.4 cm. One hundred and ninety-three patients had undergone ESWL from 1～6 times. Results Of the 236 patients,217 were rendered stone-free at 1 pro-cedure. Residual calculi were found in 12 cases after operation and drugs were used for treatment. The resid-ual calculi were removed after 1 month. Seven cases with residual calculi were treated by ESWL and the cal-culi were removed. The total stone clearance was 91.9%. The mean operation time was 31.3 min(rang from 19～52 min), and the mean hospital stay was 9.5 days(rang from 6 to 12 days). The main complications following operation included: durative hematuria in 25 cases relieved by haemostasis and diuresis treatment within 24 to 48 hours,pnstoperative fever in 141 cases within 24 hours of which 103 were relieved by antiin-flammatory and fluid replacement treatment within 24 to 48 hours. Thirty-eight cases were relieved by anti-inflammatory treatwent depending on urine culture results within 3 to 7 days. The postoperative pain in all patients was light. Conclusion Minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy with holmium laser under ultrasound guidance is simple,safe and effective in treating proximal ureteral calculi.

Objective To study the safety and feasibility of tubeless percutaneous nephrostolithotomy by hemostasis gel closure of mini-percutaneous renal-channel.Methods Eighty patients after conventional percutaneous nephrostolithotomy are selected and divided into two groups according to the principle of randomization.Control group adopts conventional percutaneous nephrostolithotomy calculi lithotripsy with renal pelvis drainage tube placement whereas the experimental group adopts tubeless percutaneous nephrostolithotomy by hemostasis gel closure of mini-percutaneous renal channel.Both experimental group and control group will be scientifically and statistically analyzed via the incidence and the dose of using sedative for alleviating pain after operation,hospital stay,level of hemoglobin,and the occurrence of complications such as continuate hemorrhage,infection,urinary extravasation,etc.Results The operation of both groups are successful in phrase Ⅰ.The incidence and the dose of using sedative in control group are obviously higher than that in experimental group(45％ vs 20％).However,the incidence of postoperative complications like infection and hemorrhage and hospital stay between two groups are undifferentiated in statistics(P ＞ 0.05).Neither the experimental group nor the control group has perinephric hematoma,and seven cases of control group have urinary leakage after remove of fistula.Conclusion Tubeless percutaneous nephrostolithotomy by hemostasis gel closure of mini-percutaneous renal-channel is safe and feasible and it can reduce the incidence of postoperative pain and avoid urinary leakage.

Objective To improve the understanding of bacteria bolt in upper urinary tract,and to investigate its diagnosis and treatment.Methods The clinical data of 11 cases with bacteria bolt in upper urinary tract were reviewed retrospectively.The clinical manifestation and treatment were summarized.Results Infection and obstruction were the clinical manifestation.Two-stage treatment was provided.Ureteral stent was indwelled in two cases,and percutaneous nephrostomy was provided at the first stage in the other 9 cases.Then the bacteria bolt was taken by ureteroscopy (1 case) or by percutaneous nephrostomy (10 cases) when the condition improved.The second stage operation took 37 min on average (ranged from 20 to 55).Estimated blood loss 60 ml on average (ranged from 10 to 200 ml).Hemoglobin decreased 5.1 g/L (3-11 g/L) 48 hours after operation in the 10 cases underwent percutaneous nephrostomy.Bolt-free rate was 100％.There was no infectious shock occurred.No relapse was observed during the 16 months of follow-up.Conclusions Bacteria bolt in upper urinary tract is not common.Infection and obstruction are its manifestation.Two-stage treatment is safe and effective.

Objective To evaluate the safety and feasibility of minimally invasive percutaneous nephro-lithotomy (mPCNL) with U100plus laser for the treatment of renal calculi. Methods From October 2006 to December 2008 ,mPCNL was performed on 133 patients suffering from renal calculi by using Wolf 8/9. 8 rig-id ureteroscope and U10Oplus laser. Results mPCNL was completed in all the 133 cases. Residual calculi were found in 7 cases after operation and use medical drags to treat. The most residual calculi were removed after 1 month and a few stones being survived. 5 cases with residual calculi were treated by ESWL. The total stone clearance was 91.0%. The operation time was 38 -65 min(mean 46 min). Nephrostomy tube was kept for a mean of 1 -2 d. The mean postoperational hospital stay was 2 -4 d. Among the patients, 133 were followed up for 1-16 months (mean 8. 3 months) , during which no recurrent renal stones were found by B ultrasonngraphy or X ray. Conclusion By using mPCNL with U100plus laser, patients with renal calculi can be treated safely and effectively.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of percutaneous renal access with balloon dilation for staghorn calculi.Methods Eighty-nine cases with PCNL were enrolled from February 2012 to March 2015.Clinical data including the time for setting the renal access, operation time, residual stone rate, complications were analyzed.Results Eighty-nine cases established nephrostomy tracts successfully.The average time for setting the renal access was (5.7 ± 1.0) min (4-8 min).The average of operation time was (62.6 ± 14.1) min (37-87min).The average of Hemoglobin decline rate was (6.3 ± 2.5)％ (2.8％-16.9％).The residual stone rate was 12.5％.Conclusions PCNL with ballon dilation is a fast, safe and effective means for staghorn calculi.It is worth using for staghorn calculi.

Objective:To explore the development, application and practical experience of investigator-initiated integrated clinical research information platform.Methods:The process of developing and constructing an integrated clinical research platform in a tertiary hospital in Beijing was introduced, the functions and advantages of the platform were described and displayed, and the main problems and risk points in the development and construction process were analyzed.Results:The integrated clinical research platform meets the management requirements of clinical research initiated by investigators, and the standardized management of the whole life cycle of the project can be realized through the platform, and the key issues of data security, information capture, sharing and interoperability need to be further explored in terms of platform docking.Conclusions:The integrated clinical research platform effectively improves the standardization, management quality and efficiency of investigator-initiated clinical research.
