AIM: The aim of the present study was to investigate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic laser therapy for transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the upper urinary tract. METHODS: Tumors of the renal pelvis and ureteropelvic junction were detected by ureteroscopy. The tumors were subjected to biopsy, and after TCC was diagnosed, endoscopic laser therapy (Neodymium-YAG and Holmium-YAG) was conducted using a 6.9 Fr. flexible ureterorenoscope. RESULTS: From January 1997 to April 2002, six patients underwent ureteroscopic treatment. Tumor grade was 1 in four patients and 2 in two patients. Average tumor size was 1.45 cm. Endoscopic treatment was chosen for two patients because of the high medical risk associated with open surgery. Another patient underwent diagnostic ureteroscopy, followed immediately by endoscopic treatment. A further three patients elected to undergo ureteroscopic treatment. One patient with large (3 cm), multifocal and incompletely treated tumors died of metastatic disease 22 months after the initial operation. One patient requested nephroureterectomy one month after endoscopic treatment, and pathological examination of the resected specimen revealed no tumor. The other four patients have been followed up for a mean period of 14 months after initial treatment. Recurrence occurred in one patient, and was successfully treated by repeat endoscopic resection. None of the patients required blood transfusion or emergency open surgery. CONCLUSION: Ureteroscopic treatment of small, localized, low-grade TCC of the upper urinary tract is now a safe and feasible alternative to nephroureterectomy in selected patients. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influences the change of the measurement method of pyuria from conventional centrifuged sediment to microchamber uncentrifuged urine for the results of evaluation of antimicrobial agents in clinical study against complicated urinary tract infections. From the viewpoint of international harmonization of judgement criteria, the recent method for counting white blood cells (WBC) in urine has changed from using uncentrifuged urine to using a microchamber in all countries. METHODS: Targeted diseases were non-catheterized complicated urinary tract infection, and cefcapene pivoxil hydrochloride or levofloxacin were used as antimicrobial drug. Pyuria was examined using the counting chamber method, a quantitative method using uncentrifuged urine with a microchamber, and the sedimentation method. RESULTS: Overall clinical efficacy in early evaluation by the two methods in measuring pyuria was evaluated as different in eight patients (7.3%). It was rated excellent in 63 (52.9%), moderate in 32 patients (26.9%) and poor in 24 (20.2%) with an efficacy rate of 79.8% using the counting chamber method, and excellent in 68 (57.1%), moderate in 27 (22.7%) and poor in 24 (20.2%) with an efficacy rate of 79.8% using the conventional sedimentation method CONCLUSION: No significant difference was seen between the two methods of WBC count in urine. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to retrospectively investigate the effectiveness of transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and intravesical instillation therapy for stage T1, grade 3 (T1G3) transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the urinary bladder. METHODS: Between January 1995 and December 1997, 97 patients with T1G3 TCC of the urinary bladder were treated by TURBT and adjuvant intravesical instillation with bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) or other anticancer agents. The recurrence-free survival rates were evaluated according to several clinicopathological factors. The cases that progressed to muscle invasive disease were also analysed. RESULTS: In this series, the median follow-up period was 25 months (range, 5- 41) after the initial TURBT. Intravesical recurrence was noted in 44 patients (45%), and the 1, 2, and 3 year recurrence-free survival rates were 72%, 58%, and 42%, respectively. Multivariate analyses revealed that the risk of intravesical recurrence was significantly higher for patients who did not receive BCG therapy, irrespective of age, gender, tumor size, multiplicity, pathological stage, concomitant carcinoma in situ, and lymphovascular involvement. Moreover, after a median of 10 months, disease progression occurred in seven patients (7%), of which only one patient was treated by BCG therapy after initial TURBT. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that intravesical instillation with BCG combined with TURBT is an effective conservative treatment for T1G3 TCC of the bladder. Patients with negative prognostic factors should be treated by BCG rather than other anticancer agents after TURBT. 相似文献

Reduced expression of thrombopoietin is involved in thrombocytopenia in human and rat liver cirrhosis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
TORU ISHIKAWA TAKAFUMI ICHIDA YASUNOBU MATSUDA SOICHI SUGITANI MOTOYA SUGIYAMA TAKASHI KATO HIROSHI MIYAZAKI HITOSHI ASAKURA 《Journal of gastroenterology and hepatology》1998,13(9):907-913
It is widely accepted that thrombocytopenia associated with liver cirrhosis is caused by increased platelet destruction in the enlarged spleen, but this issue has not yet been analysed sufficiently in terms of platelet production. Thrombopoietin is produced mainly in the liver and strongly promotes platelet production. We studied serum thrombopoietin and the levels of its mRNA in liver tissue of cirrhotic patients and also in a rat model of liver cirrhosis. Furthermore, to clarify the influence of the spleen, we investigated thrombopoietin mRNA in splenectomized rats. The serum thrombopoietin level in humans with liver cirrhosis was not significantly reduced instead of thrombocytopenia. The expression of thrombopoietin mRNA in liver tissue decreased with the progression of liver cirrhosis in both patients and the rat model and no compensatory expression was observed in other organs or nonparenchymal cells. The level of thrombopoietin mRNA did not differ significantly in splenectomized cirrhotic rats before or after administration of dimethylnitrosamine, but was lower than that in splenectomized rats without cirrhosis. We conclude that thrombocytopenia in liver cirrhosis is caused not only by platelet destruction but also by decreased platelet production, perhaps due to reduction of thrombopoietin mRNA in the liver. 相似文献

Hypercalcemia was observed most frequently in patients withadvanced breast cancer, following which the order of occurrencewas in lung, cervix, esophagus and tongue cancer patients, andmyeloma patients. The shortening of Q aTc interval onthe electrocardiogram was remarkable and served as a usefulindicator in the early detection of hypercalcemia. The loweredserum phosphorus level was often observed in hypercalcemia inpatients with skeletal metastases. Metabolic alkalosis in hypercalcemiawas probably due to hypochloremia or hypopotassemia. The degreeof calcium deposition along the renal tubules was proportionalto the duration of hypercalcemia. Corticosteroid administrationwas effective in the treatment of hypercalcemia. However, patientsdied frequently of uremia when hypercalcemia persisted for morethan 20 days. The mechanism of hypercalcemia associated withneoplastic diseases is discussed. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to determine whether renal function influences the acid-base metabolism in patients undergoing orthotopic bladder replacement using intestinal segment. METHODS: Acid-base balance, serum electrolytes and renal function were studied in 30 patients with colon neobladder and 18 patients with ileal neobladder. Mean follow up was 51 months. Effects of renal function on acid-base metabolism in both types of bladder replacement were compared. Therapeutic efficacy of the sodium bicarbonate administration was also evaluated in cases with hyperchloremic acidosis. RESULTS: No significant differences were observed in any of the variables examined between the colon and ileal neobladder groups, except for potassium concentration. Although metabolic acidosis was detected using the Siggard-Anderson acid-base nomogram in eight (26.7%) and seven (38.9%) patients in the colon and ileal neobladder groups, respectively, this difference was not significant. In both the colon and ileal neobladder groups, the serum creatinine concentrations in patients diagnosed with metabolic acidosis were significantly higher than in those diagnosed with a normal metabolic status. Furthermore, as a result of severe metabolic acidosis, three (10.0%) and three (16.7%) patients in the colon and ileal neobladder groups, respectively, were administered sodium bicarbonate and their metabolic status was fully normalized. CONCLUSIONS: Despite there being no statistical difference, patients with ileal neobladder may more easily develop metabolic acidosis compared with those with colon neobladder. In addition, a close association between the serum creatinine level and the degree of metabolic acidosis was observed in both groups. However, even if severe metabolic acidosis occurs, it is relatively easy to correct using sodium bicarbonate. These findings suggest that it might be safe to use a colon segment for orthotopic bladder reconstruction in patients with higher serum creatinine levels, despite no significant difference in acid-base metabolism and detection rates of metabolic acidosis between the colon and ileal neobladder groups. 相似文献
