A total of 71 patients with primary T1-4N0M0 unilateral tumor were included in this study. The median age was 54 (range from 25 to 83) years. There were 51 males and 20 females. There were 27 cases of typeⅠ, 44 cases of type Ⅱ, 36 cases of left tumor and 35 cases of right tumor. Patients with clinical Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ stage were 47 cases, 12 cases, 9 cases and 3 cases, respectively. Tumor necrosis occurred in 15 cases (21.1%). The average preoperative alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was 89.0(43.0-217.0) U/L, the average preoperative hemoglobin (Hb) was (132.5±19.9) g/L, with 20 cases (28.2%) of Hb<120 g/L before surgery; the average of preoperative Hb was (132.5±19.9) g/L, among which 20 cases (28.2%) had Hb<120 g/L before surgery; the average of preoperative neutrophils/lymphocytes (NLR) was 2.40 (1.03-6.77); radical nephrectomy was performed in 43 patients and nephrectomy was performed in 28 patients.

The average age was 69.5 years old (44-88 years), with tPSA level of 7.23 ng/ml (4-10 ng/ml), f/t PSA of 0.183( 0.016-0.504), PSAD of 0.126 ng/ml2 ( 0.025-0.534 ng/ml2) , PV of 72.42 ml ( 18.71-199.51 ml). The age, PSA level, free/total PSA ratio, PSA density, prostate volume, and PI-RADS score of enrolled patients were analyzed for univariate analysis and their difference was compared by chi-square test, t-test. The multivariate logistic regression analysis was also performed through SPSS to select the independent risk factors for prostate cancer (PCa) and clinically significant cancer (csPCa). The receiver operating characteristic curves were also constructed to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of PI-RADS in PCa to explore the best cut-off value for the diagnosis of PCa and csPCa. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000A total of 539 patients were included in our study with 244 cases being positive and 295 cases being negative.

According to univariate analysis results, the age(P<0.001) and PI-RADS score (P<0.001) of the positive patients were higher than the negative patients, and the difference was statistically significant. The age of the csPCa patients (P=0.023), PSAD (P=0.048) and PI-RADS scores (P<0.001) were higher than those of InsPCa patients, and f/t PSA (P=0.027) was lower than that of InsPCa patients with statistically significance. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that f /t PSA (OR=2.283, P=0.049) and PI-RADS score (OR=9.046, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for positive biopsy results, while PSAD (OR=4.54, P=0.038) and PI-RADS score (OR=8.254, P<0.001) were independent risk factor for csPCa. The Yoden index analysis of different thresholds for prostate cancer detection indicated that PI-RADS 3 was the optimal threshold for the diagnosis of PCa, and PI-RADS 4 was the optimal threshold for the diagnosis of csPCa. Based on the combination of the above factors, the positive rate of prostate cancer was relatively high in patients with PI-RADS score ≥3 and f/t PSA<0.2 , which accounted for 86.6%(181/209). In contrast, the positive rate in patients with a PI-RADS score of ≤2 and f/t PSA≥0.2 was low, which accounted for 10.7%(6/56).

After bladder resection, the ileal segment of 55 cm in length was intercepted at 25 cm from ileocecal valve, with the proximal part retaining 15 cm lumen as the input loop, and the distal part of 40 cm ileum being folded in 1∶1 ratio. The folded intestinal segment was made into a allantoic sac by using a linear incision closure device, forming a \"ρ\" shape with the input loop, bilateral ureters and the input loop. Anastomosis of wall, distal end of allantoic and urethra was performed.Record the perioperative data such as operation time, estimated bleeding, postoperative recovery, complications, and follow-up results. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Result \u0000All of the 11 cases underwent successfully operation, and no cases were transferred to open surgery. The operation time ranged from 320 to 440 minutes, with an average of 357.1 minutes. The estimated amount of bleeding ranged from 100 to 300 ml, with an average of 207.1 ml. The total time of intestinal tract procedure was 80-100 minutes, with an average of 89.3 minutes, and the time of allantoic preparation was 14-19 minutes, with an average of 16.1 minutes. The pain score was 2-5 points at 4 hours after operation, with an average of 3.8 points, and 1-4 points at 24 hours after operation, with an average of 2.3 points. Postoperative exhaust time ranged from 2.5 to 3.5 days, with an average of 3.0 days.Catheter removed 21 days after operation, with 9 cases of urinary incontinence, including mild in 6 cases, moderate in 2 cases and severe in 1 case, with daytime pad of 0-3 and nighttime pad of 1-3.which improved gradually following pelvic exercise for 4-18 weeks. Postoperative hospital stay ranged from 7 to 13 days, with an average of 10.4 days. The drainage removal time was 4-11 days, with an average of 6.7 days. Postoperative pathology revealed 7 cases of high-grade invasive urothelial carcinoma, 3 case of low-grade invasive urothelial carcinoma and 1 case of adenocarcinoma. The tumors invade the prostate in adenocarcinoma patient, with left (3/13) and right (1/9) positive lymph nodes.

There were 979 males and 397 females, with the mean age of (57.65±10.92) years. The mean body mass index (BMI) was (25.47±3.27) kg/m2 and the average tumor size was (4.02±1.52) cm. There were 711 tumors on the left and 665 on the right. There were 363 cases with clinical symptoms, 567 patients with smoking history , 732 cases with history of chronic disease. There were 289 cases with tumor necrosis, 636 cases with tumor protrusion, 822 cases with irregular tumor , and 738 cases with renal sinus compression. Partial nephrectomy and radical nephrectomy were performed in 396 cases and 980 cases respectively. Mann-whitney U test and chi-square test were used for univariate analysis, logistic regression analysis was used for multivariate analysis to analyze the predictors of upgrading, R software was used to construct the nomogram predictive model, C-index was used to evaluate the model discrimination, and calibration curve method was used to evaluate the consistency of the model. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000Postoperative pathology of total 1 376 cases showed that there were 1 195 cases of clear cell carcinoma of kidney, 48 cases of papillary cell carcinoma, 57 cases of chromophobe cell carcinoma, and 76 cases of other types. Among the 1 376 patients with cT1 renal tumor, 75 patients were upgraded to pT3a, accounting for 5.5% of all patients. Univariate analysis showed that the patients who upgraded to pT3a were older [(63.08±10.17) years old and (57.34±10.88) years old], and the tumor length and diameter were larger [(5.24±1.35) cm and (3.95±1.51) cm].

It included 53 males and 43 females, aged 21 to 57(average 41) years old. All patients were diagnosed with kidney stones by KUB, IVU and CT examination. 19 cases of bilateral kidney stones and 37cases in left and 40 cases in right. 67 cases of single stones and 29 cases of multiple. There were 34 cases of renal pelvis calculi, 19 cases of meddle calyx, 17 cases of superior calyx and 26 cases of inferior calyx. Maximum diameter of calculus was 0.8-2.9 cm, average(1.6±0.8)cm, of which 49 cases size were over 2 cm. There is no obvious stenosis of the renal pelvis and ureter. There were 29 cases of CD4+ lymphocyte count ≤400/μl, and 26 cases of preoperative ureteral stents. Urine test and urine bacterial culture were confirmed no urinary tract infection before lithotripsy. 46 cases with abnormal white blood cells due to urinary test could not meet the diagnostic criteria for urinary tract infection, and prophylactic antibiotics, 51 cases without antibiotics. All 96 cases underwent lithotripsy and record postoperative conditions. Then single factor analysis and multi-factor logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the related factors of urinary tract infection after lithotripsy. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000All 96 cases were successfully completed, no open surgery, no complications. The operation time was 40-130 min (average 57 min), of which 34 cases were over 60 min. Postoperative retained catheter time was 2 to 11 days (average 3.5 days), of which 27 cases were over 7 days. Urinary tract infection occurred in 18 of all patients, with an incidence of 18.8%. The results of urinary bacterial culture in 18 cases were 13 cases of Escherichia coli infection, 3 cases of Proteobacteria infection, and 2 cases of fecal cocci infection. There were 14 cases of calculi size over 2 cm, 10 cases of CD4+ lymphocyte count≤400/μl, 11 cases of preoperative ureteral stents, 3 cases of prophylactic antibiotics, 11 cases of operation time over 60 min, and 10 cases of postoperative retained catheter over 7 days. Single factor analysis found that CD4+ lymphocyte count≤400/μl, preoperative ureteral stents, larger calculi size, longer operation time, postoperative retained catheter for a long time could increase the risk of urinary tract infection after operation (P<0.05), Preoperative prophylactic antibiotics could reduce the incidence of postoperative infection (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that CD4+ lymphocyte count ≤400/μl, preoperative ureteral stents, calculi size over 2 cm, operation time more than 60 min, postoperative retained catheter more than 7 days, and no prophylactic antibiotics before surgery were risk factors for postoperative urinary tract i","PeriodicalId":10343,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Urology","volume":"40 1","pages":"690-694"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48761673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
