However, national data regarding the indications and the surgical approaches for hysterectomy are lacking. The aim of this study was to examine the surgical indications for hysterectomy in different age groups and the relative merits of different surgical approaches for hysterectomy in Chinese women. Clinical data from 4653 cases of hysterectomy performed in Tongji Hospital from 2004 to 2009 were analysed. Hysterectomy was most commonly performed among women aged 40-49 years (2299; 49.4%). Overall, colporrhagia and abdominal pain were the two most common indications for hysterectomy. The most common indications by age groups were as follows: malignant ovarian tumour, 〈 20 years; malignant uterine tumour, 20-29 and 30-39 years; uterine myoma, 40-49 and 50-59 years; and uterine prolapse, 60-69 and 〉 70 years. The proportion of malignant aetiology also varied by age, being the highest in women aged 〈 20 years (75.0%) and the lowest in those aged 40-49 years (19.9%). Approximately 35% women who had hysterectomies also had concomitant bilateral oophorectomy. The lowest rate of oophorectomy occurred in women aged 30-39years (15.8%), whereas the highest rate was in those aged 50-59years (75.9%). The abdominal surgical approach was used in 84% of all hysterectomies. Surgeries using the vaginal approach required a significantly shorter operating time (118 min average) than all other approaches (P 〈 0.05). Both the amount of bleeding and the blood transfusion volume required were smaller in vaginal approaches, with no significant differences between the others. The surgical approaches used were also related to the scope of surgery. Both the surgical indications and the rates of bilateral oophorectomy varied by age. In terms of both operating time and the amount of bleeding and blood transfusion volume required, the vaginal approach was superior to all other surgical approaches.展开更多

Methods Urodynamic study was carried out in 103 BPH patients who were assigned to group A(no residual urine), group B( residual urine【 60 ml) and group C( residual urine 60 - 100 ml). Results Qmax, URA, DR and DI were not significantly different between group C and group B (P 】 0.05) but significantly different between group C and A or between B and A(P【0.05). Conclusion The conventional conception that surgical intervention is indicated when the residual urine being 】 60 ml should be strictly followed. Early surgical intervention should be undertaken if the bladder outlet obstruction or bladder function deteriorated by BPH causing residual urine. Other causes such as neurogenic should be ruled out before surgery. 10 refs,2 tabs.展开更多

Computed tomography demonstrated type A acute aortic dissection (AAAD) with brachiocephalic artery occlusion. After admission, Glasgow Coma Scale score improved to E1VTM4, and voluntary movement was noted only in the right limbs. Outcome: The patient underwent emergency grafting of the ascending aorta and innominate artery under deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. After surgery, the patient recovered with mild disorientation and left hemiplegia. Magnetic resonance imaging of the head revealed no large infarction but revealed multiple acute ischemic changes. One year later, the patient demonstrated independent walk and successfully returned to work life. Conclusions: Immediate resuscitation and surgery resulted in good recovery from CPA after AAAD.展开更多

This study aimed to completely describe and analyze the clinical outcome of restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA)for CUC in China. Methods Ninety-five consecutive patients, who suffered CUC and had surgical indications, were carefully selected. All patients underwent IPAA. Data on patient characteristics, surgical indications, surgical details, postoperative complications, functional outcome, and quality of life were collected. Results The mean patient age at the time of the operation was 32 years. Twenty-nine (31%) patients underwent an emergency operation, and 66 (69%) underwent elective procedures. Four patients with severe dysplasia underwent operations, but no carcinoma was histologically confirmed. A two-stage operation was performed in 87 (92%) patients, and a hand-sewn technique was applied in 88 (93%) patients. Sixteen patients (17.0%) experienced early complications, and there was a significant difference between the emergency surgery group and the elective group (31.0% vs. 10.6%, respectively; P 〈0.01). Five (5.3%) patients developed pouchitis as a late complication. The mean stool frequency after the operation was 4.6 (2-11) during the first 24 hours and 1.5 (0-4) overnight. According to the Kirwan grading scale, 87 (91.8%) patients showed satisfactory anal continence function. The quality of life improved significantly from a preoperative mean value of 0.28-0.61 before ileostomy closure to 0.78 after ileostomy closure (P 〈0.01) according to the Cleveland Global Quality of Life index. Conclusions IPAA is an effective and safe surgical procedure for patients with CUC in China. However, some characteristics, such as the low incidence of pouchitis, require further study.展开更多
