Day case stapled haemorrhoidopexy for prolapsing haemorrhoids

OBJECTIVE: Conventional surgical management of prolapsing haemorrhoids is by excisional haemorrhoidectomy. Postoperative pain has restricted the application of such procedures in the day case setting. These operations remain associated with a period of restricted activity. The use of circular stapling devices as an alternative to the excisional approach in the management of haemorrhoids has been described. This study reports our experience of stapled haemorrhoidopexy as a day case procedure. METHODS: Patients with third or fourth degree haemorrhoids were eligible for the procedure. Patients were considered suitable candidates for day case surgery based on conventional parameters. Symptoms were assessed using a previously validated symptom severity rating score. Stapled haemorrhoidopexy was carried out using a circular stapling device. Pain scores were obtained prior to discharge. Patients were admitted if pain was uncontrolled despite oral analgesia. Symptoms were re-scored at six-week follow-up. RESULTS: Over a 70-month period 168 consecutive stapled haemorrhoidopexies were performed or directly supervised by one consultant colorectal surgeon. One hundred and ten (65%) patients were considered appropriate candidates for day case surgery by conventional criteria. Ninety-six (87.3%) patients successfully underwent stapled haemorrhoidopexy on a day case basis. Fourteen (12.7%) patients required admission on the day of surgery (5 for early postoperative bleeding, 4 for pain necessitating continuing opiate analgesia, two for urinary retention and three for surgery performed late in the day). Six (5%) patients were re-admitted postoperatively; four for pain relief and two because of urinary retention. Of the day case patients, 91 (82.7%) and 56 (50.9%) had been seen for 6 week and 6 month review, respectively, at the time of analysis. Symptom scores were 6 (pre-operatively) vs 0 (postoperatively) (P < 0.01). 76/91 (83.5%) patients reviewed at 6/52 were asymptomatic. CONCLUSION: Stapled haemorrhoidopexy is a safe and effective procedure that can be carried out on selected patients on a day case basis. Complications are of a similar nature to excisional haemorrhoidectomy.     

Lower lip paraesthesia following restoration of a second premolar tooth. Case report

A forty year old female patient developed paraesthesia of the right side of her lower lip following the placement of an extensive pin-retained amalgam restoration in her lower right second premolar tooth. Radiographs indicated that the mental foramen was close to the apex of this tooth and it was assumed that postoperative pulpitis and periapical inflammation had caused the paraesthesia through the effects of pressure on the mental nerve. The paraesthesia resolved following endodontic treatment of the lower second premolar tooth and the patient has had no further signs or symtoms.

采用窥视下尿道内切开术治疗尿道狭窄或闭锁５３例，其中４８例治疗成功。狭窄闭锁段≤３ｃｍ者，单纯冷刀切开即可；＞３ｃｍ者，冷刀切开后需加电刀切除疤痕组织，扩大尿道，尿道内皮管植入。３６例患者术后随访１～８年（平均４年６个月），２７例排尿通畅，尿流率和性功能正常。本文就操作要点和并发症防治等进行了详细讨论。     

Renal disease in POEMS syndrome: report on a case and review of the literature

POEMS syndrome is a multisystem disorder associated with plasmacell dyscrasias. This report describes a patient with POEMS-associatedrenal disease and reviews the literature on biopsy-proven renalinvolvement in POEMS syndrome. Our patient had glomerulonephritiswith membranoproliferative features on light-microscopy withoutcharacteristic findings on immunofluorescence, and with ultra-structural evidence of glomerular microangiopathy. Ultrastructuralevidence of microangiopathy was also found in vasa nervorum.In 20 other cases of POEMS- associated renal disease, 16 hadglomerular disease. Light-microscopy showed membranoproliferative-likeglomerulopathy in 14 patients and glomerular microan giopathyin two. Ultrastructural evidence of microangi opathy was presentin all 15 patients in whom electron- microscopy was done. Thus,in most patients with POEMS-associated glomerular disease acharacteristic lesion is present with evidence of endothelialinjury. As endothelial damage is also found in endoneural vessels,generalized endothelial injury may play a role in non-renalmanifestations of POEMS syndrome. In previous reviews manifestationsof the POEMS syndrome were similar for patients with or withoutmyeloma. Among patients with biopsy-proven glomerular disease,however, myeloma patients are underrepres ented. Whether thisrepresents a sampling error or has true pathophysiological significanceremains to be established.

Sick day management using blood 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB) compared with urine ketone monitoring reduces hospital visits in young people with T1DM: a randomized clinical trial.

AIMS: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a life-threatening acute complication of Type 1 diabetes, may be preventable with frequent monitoring of glycaemia and ketosis along with timely supplemental insulin. This prospective, two-centre study assessed sick day management using blood 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB) monitoring compared with traditional urine ketone testing, aimed at averting emergency assessment and hospitalization. METHODS: One hundred and twenty-three children, adolescents and young adults, aged 3-22 years, and their families received sick day education. Participants were randomized to receive either a blood glucose monitor that also measures blood 3-OHB (blood ketone group, n = 62) or a monitor plus urine ketone strips (urine ketone group, n = 61). All were encouraged to check glucose levels > or = 3 times daily and to check ketones during acute illness or stress, when glucose levels were consistently elevated (> or = 13.9 mmol/l on two consecutive readings), or when symptoms of DKA were present. Frequency of sick days, hyperglycaemia, ketosis, and hospitalization/emergency assessment were ascertained prospectively for 6 months. RESULTS: There were 578 sick days during 21,548 days of follow-up. Participants in the blood ketone group checked ketones significantly more during sick days (276 of 304 episodes, 90.8%) than participants in the urine ketone group (168 of 274 episodes, 61.3%) (P < 0.001). The incidence of hospitalization/emergency assessment was significantly lower in the blood ketone group (38/100 patient-years) compared with the urine ketone group (75/100 patient-years) (P = 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Blood ketone monitoring during sick days appears acceptable to and preferred by young people with Type 1 diabetes. Routine implementation of blood 3-OHB monitoring for the management of sick days and impending DKA can potentially reduce hospitalization/emergency assessment compared with urine ketone testing and offers potential cost savings.
