Background and Aims:Recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury during endoscopic thyroid cancer radical surgery significantly affects postoperative recovery and quality of life. Avoiding RLN injury has always been a key concern during thyroid surgeries. Choosing an appropriate and safe approach to expose the RLN in endoscopic thyroid cancer surgery may reduce the risk of RLN injury. However,the optimal approach for RLN exposure in endoscopic thyroid cancer radical surgery through the anterior chest approach remains inconclusive. This study was performed to compare the surgical outcomes of using the medial and lateral approaches to expose the RLN in endoscopic thyroid cancer surgery through the anterior chest approach,so as to provide reference for clinical practice.Methods:The clinical data of 85 patients who underwent endoscopic thyroid cancer radical surgery (ipsilateral lobectomy and ipsilateral central lymph node dissection) via the anterior chest approach at Zhuzhou Hospital Affiliated to Xiangya Medical College,Central South University,from January 2020 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Among the patients,medial approach was used in 45 cases (medial approach group) and lateral approach was used for RLN exposure in 40 cases (lateral approach group). The main clinical variables were compared between the two groups. Results:No statistically significant differences were found in baseline data between the two groups (all P>0.05). Both groups successfully completed endoscopic thyroidectomy via the anterior chest approach with complete RLN exposure at the main trunk and its entry into the larynx. The RLN exposure time and endoscopic surgery time in the medial approach group were significantly shorter than those in the lateral approach group (both P<0.05). Intraoperative blood loss was significantly less in the medial approach group compared to the lateral approach group (P<0.05). There were no cases of transient RLN injury in the medial approach group,whereas 5 cases of transient RLN injury occurred in the lateral approach group,with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). The medial approach group had fewer cases of thyroid tissue residue at the Berry's ligament and transient hypoparathyroidism than the lateral approach group,but the differences were not statistically significant (both P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in postoperative hospital stay or postoperative drainage volume (both P>0.05). Conclusion:The medial approach for RLN exposure in endoscopic thyroid cancer surgery is safe and feasible. Compared to the lateral approach,it allows faster RLN exposure,effectively reduces the risk of transient RLN injury,decreases intraoperative blood loss and operative time,and may also reduce the incidence of transient hypoparathyroidism and thyroid tissue residue to some extent.

【Objective】 To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of transurethral blue laser vaporescetion of the prostate in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). 【Methods】 The clinical data of 100 BPH patients undergoing the surgery in our hospital during May and Sep.2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The observations included operation time, bladder irrigation duration, postoperative catheter indwelling time, hospital stay, complications, as well as changes in hemoglobin, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Quality of Life Scale (QoL) score, maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), bladder residual urine volume (PVR), and other related indicators before and 3 months after surgery. 【Results】 All 100 procedures were successfully completed without turning to transurethral resection of the prostate and/or open surgery. No blood transfusion was needed. The operation time was (37.8±19.6) min, bladder irrigation time (1.3±0.5) d, catheter indwelling time (12.7±0.4) d, hospital stay (3.4±0.7) d, hemoglobin drop (4.1±7.1) g/L. The postoperative IPSS and QoL score were significantly lower than those before surgery (P<0.05); postoperative Qmax was higher than that before surgery (P<0.05); postoperative PVR was smaller than that before surgery (P<0.05). Urinary retention occurred in 4 cases (4%) after removal of the catheter; carnal hematuria and bladder clot formation occurred in 3 cases (3%); mixed urinary incontinence occurred in 2 cases (2%); stenosis of the external urethra occurred in 2 cases (2%). All complications were cured after symptomatic treatment. There were no serious perioperative complications, no intraoperative complications such as ureteral orifice injury or bladder perforation, and no serious postoperative complications such as transurethral resection syndrome (TURS), permanent urinary incontinence or bladder neck contracture. 【Conclusion】 The blue laser surgical system had satisfactory effects of vaporization and hemostasia. Transurethral blue laser vaporesection of the prostate is safe and effective in the treatment of BPH.

【Objective】 To investigate the effects of 450 nm diode blue laser on the morphological changes and thermal damage of renal pelvis under different conditions. 【Methods】 An ex vivo study was conducted on a fresh porcine pelvis model (7 cm×5 cm×3 cm). The laser fiber was fixed on the mechanical arm perpendicular to the renal pelvis tissue, and the distance between them was 1-2 mm. The renal pelvis tissue was incised at a speed of 1-2 mm/s and power of 5-30 W. After the incised tissue was fixed in formalin (4%), the morphology, depth, width and coagulation thickness were observed with naked eyes and a microscope. 【Results】 The different powers had different vaporization and incision effects. When the operating distance was 2 mm, the speed was 2 mm/s and power was 5 W, the vaporization depth, width and coagulation thickness were approximately 0 9 mm, 0.25 mm and 0.35 mm, respectively. With the increase of power, the vaporization width and depth increased, and the coagulation thickness was 0.35-0.50 mm. When the power was more than 10 W, the renal pelvis tissue was easily penetrated. When the laser power was 20 W, the section of the renal pelvis showed an irregular shape of vaporization. When the operating distance was 1 mm, the whole renal pelvis tissue was easily vaporized. When it was 2 mm, a wide and safe energy treatment window was produced. 【Conclusion】 The 450 nm diode blue laser can vaporize and incise renal pelvis tissue safely and effectively, with high precision and little thermal damage. It is expected to be a new surgical tool in the treatment of renal pelvis lesions.

Aim To investigate the anti-angiogenesis and anti-xenograftes of UA in zebrafish larvaes. Meth-ods 24 hour post-fertilization ( hpf ) TG zebrafish was treated with different concentration of UA for 24h, and the number of intersegmental vessels( IVS) were detec-ted under fluorescent microscope respectively;then the models of AB/TG zebrafish xenografts were established by be micro-injected with SMMC-7721 or HT-29 cell at 48hpf respectively, and after cocultured with UA for 48h, optical density (OD) of the SMMC-7721 cell and subintestinal veins ( SIVs) induced by HT-29 were e-valuated under confocal microscope. Results ISV as-say showed that UA could cause IVS missing or disap-perance, inhibition ratio reaching 20. 25% and 26. 65%. UA blocked the spread of SMMC-7721 cells in zebrafish and OD value,and inhibition ratios at three concentrations were 38. 01%, 54. 69%, 61. 88%, re-spectively; in another SIVs assay induced by xeno-grafts, UA at concentration 10 and 15mg·L-1 showed that SIVs were inhibited (P<0. 01) obviously. Con-clusion UA could inhibit the angiogenesis and the growth of SMMC-7721/HT-29 xenografts,and the anti-tumor mechanism may be related with VEGFR2 expres-sion.
