Objective The role of testis-sparing surgery in children with benign testicular tumors were emphasized by this retrospective survey. Methods Sixteen patients who undergo testis-sparing surgery between the years 1996 to 2003 were reviewed. Intraoperative frozen section histopathology had been done in all of patients. The period of follow-up ranged from 6 months to 7 years. Results In our series, as well as in the literature there was no differenle between frozen section and definitive histology.Ten cases were teratomas, 4 cases were epidermoid cysts and 2 cases were mucus cysts.Follow-up of 6 months to 7 years has shown no recurrence,and on examination,testicular volume is normal in all cases.Conclusion Testis-sparing surgery is a positive method in the management of benign testicular tumors in children.It preserves testicular volume,which is important for both cosmetic and functional roles.

Objective To investigate the regulation effect of bispectral index (BIS) on the depth of total intravenous anesthesia (TI-VA) by comparing with regulating the depth of anesthesia according to the changes of hemodynamics. Methods 60 ASA Ⅰ～Ⅱ patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) were randomly assigned into controlled group (group C) and trial group (group T) ,with 30 patients in each group, according to the rules of regulating the titration of propofol during TIVA. The target of group C was to keep SBP/DBP 100 ～ 140mmHg/60 ～ 89mmHg and that of group T was to keep BIS 40 ～ 60 during anesthesia. The measure indexes included SBP/DBP, HR, BIS, total dosis of Propofol, time to extubate, time to leave operating room and OAA/S (observer's assessment of alert-ness/sedation). After operation, we evaluated whether awareness during surgery happens. Results As compared with group C, there were higher SBP/DBP and BIS in group T after induction of anesthesia, during aeroperitonia, immediately after finishing operation and just before extubating endotracheal catheter, but less dosis of propofol and less time of extubation and leaving operating room in group T. The differences had significance (P <0.01). There were no significant differences in the changes of HR between two groups (P >0.05) and no awareness during surgery happened in both groups. Conclusion TIVA regulated by BIS during LC can decrease the dosis of propofol, accelerate the recovery from anesthesia and avoid extremely deep anesthesia and awareness during surgery.

Objective To observe the preliminary clinical results and safety of 27-gauge microincision vitrectomy surgery for partial vitreoretinal diseases.Methods A total of 13 patients (13 eyes) who underwent 27-gauge microincision vitrectomy surgery were enrolled.The follow-up period was 6 to 12 months.Preoperative and postoperative visual acuity and intraocular,total operative time,cutting time for removing vitreous,wound healing status,intraoperative and postoperative complications were observed.Results Mean best corrected visual acuity improved from preoperative (1.26±0.66) logMAR (0.10±0.09) to postoperative (0.63±0.52) logMAR (0.35±0.24),and the difference was statistically significant (t=2.743,P=0.018).The difference of mean preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP),IOP of postoperative day 1,day 5,one month and final postoperative visit were not statistically significant (F=0.593,P＞0.05).The mean total operative and cutting times were (36.38±14.97) min and (10.12±3.54) min respectively.Postoperative scleral incision showed linear closure,no cases of postoperative sclerotomyrelated complications such as wound dehiscence,vitreous incarceration and subcoujunctival fluid were observed.No intraoperative and postoperative complications of iatrogenic retinal breaks,endophthalmitis,choroidal detachment,retinal detachment and vitrous hemorrhage were observed.Conclusions The 27-gauge microincision vitrectomy surgery can improve postoperative visual acuity for treatment of vitreoretinal diseases and induce fewer sclerotomyrelated complications,which maybe a safer surgical approach.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between body composition and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods:CKD patients who were hospitalized in the Department of Nephrology of Chongqing General Hospital from January 2017 to December 2019 and had complete clinical biochemical data were divided into CKD patients with CVD and CKD patients without CVD according to their medical history and corresponding auxiliary examinations. Clinical data were collected and anthropometric measurements were conducted. Skeletal muscle index (SMI), appendage lean mass/height 2, total body fat (TBF), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), bone mineral capacity, bone mineral density and et al, were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. T test, U test and Chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between body composition and CVD. Results:A total of 604 CKD patients were included in this study, including 560 patients (92.7%) with CKD stage 3, 44 patients (7.3%) with CKD stage 4, and 180 CKD patients with CVD (29.8%), 424 CKD patients without CVD (70.2%). Compared with CKD patients without CVD, the proportion of men, the proportion of hypertension, the proportion of diabetes, age, duration of CKD, systolic blood pressure, blood uric acid, waist to hip ratio and waist circumference were higher (all P<0.05), while low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were lower in CKD patients with CVD (all P<0.05). In terms of body composition, SMI ( t=-11.964, P<0.001) and body mass index ( t=-4.462, P<0.001) in CKD patients with CVD were significantly lower than those in CKD patients without CVD, but VAT ( t=3.089, P=0.002) and TBF ( t=5.177, P<0.001) in CKD patients with CVD were significantly higher. After adjusting for confounders such as age, CKD duration, hypertension history, diabetes history, LDL-C, body mass index, eGFR, TBF, etc. by multivariate logistic regression analysis, the risk of CKD patients suffering from CVD increased significantly with the decrease of SMI [with SMI high tertile (36.37%-50.80%) as reference, SMI middle tertile (28.23%-36.31%): OR=1.49, 95% CI 1.24-1.71, P=0.003; SMI low tertile (15.28%-28.19%): OR=2.17, 95% CI 1.79-2.62, P<0.001], and VAT was not found to be associated with the risk of CVD in CKD patients ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Reduction of SMI is independently associated with CVD in CKD patients.
