输尿管上段结石的微创手术治疗

目的：探讨输尿管上段结石的治疗方法。方法：回顾性分析输尿管镜下气压弹道碎石(URSL），后腹腔镜输尿管切开取石(RLU)、经皮肾穿刺取石(PCNL)治疗输尿管上段结石患者的临床资料。其中URSL组25例，RLU组20例。PCNL组9例。结果：URSL组碎石成功18例；7例不成功，其中3例改为开放手术，1例改为后腹腔镜取石。2例行ESWL术，1例仅留置双J管。术后1个月拔管后自行排出。2例并发输尿管穿孔。RLU组取石成功18例，2例滑入肾内，经配合输尿管镜和腹腔镜直视下经皮肾穿刺取石成功，术后15例有伤口漏尿。PCNL组成功9例，无并发症。结论：USRL创伤小。术后恢复快。是治疗输尿管上段结石的较为满意的治疗方法。PCNL创伤小，取石成功率高，在结石靠近肾盂、儿童输尿管上段结石并同侧肾结石和结石以下输尿管狭窄时应优先考虑。但技术难度较大。RLU可作为URSL不成功后的辅助治疗方法。

Ureteral obstruction in the neonatal rat: Renal nerves modulate hemodynamic effects

In the neonate, chronic unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) reduces renal blood flow (RBF) of the ipsilateral kidney and increases RBF of the opposite kidney. To determine whether renal nerves mediate or modulate these responses complete left UUO in the neonatal rat was used as a model of severe obstructive uropathy, and was compared with sham-operated controls. At 24–28 days of age, animals underwent left or right mechanical renal denervation or left sham renal denervation. One week after denervation, animals were anesthetized and blood pressure and heart reate were measured. Cardiac output and RBF were determined by the radioactive microsphere technique. UUO increased blood pressure and heart rate, and decreased RBF in the obstructed kidney, regardless of denervation. While left UUO increased RBF to the intact opposite kidney in rats with left renal denervation, this was attenuated by right renal denervation. Thus, in the neonatal rat, UUO modulates systemic renal hemodynamics, possibly through activation of the renin-angiotensin system. While renal nerves do not mediate the vasoconstriction of the obstructed kidney, renal nerves modulate vascular tone of the kidney contralateral to UUO.     

The effect of indomethacin and metamizole on ureteral motility and urine flow in sheep

Summary The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of two non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs, indomethacin and metamizole, on ureteral peristalsis during acute occlusion similar to the situation in renal colic. In 12 pentobarbital anesthetized sheep, both ureters were cannulated and the frequency of ureteral contractions, urine flow, mean ureteral pressure and blood pressure were recorded during 10-min control and i.v. drug administration periods. Both indomethacin (1–2 mg/kg) and metamizole (60–120 mg/kg) showed a dose dependent reduction in peristaltic frequency without reduction of the mean pressure. In addition, the pressure amplitude of the peristaltic waves was also lowered, particularly with indomethacin. Only indomethacin reduced the urine flow. Arterial blood pressure was elevated by both drugs, particularly after the first dose of indomethacin. It can be concluded that indomethacin and metamizole reduce ureteral peristaltic frequency, probably blocking the impulse transmission at the ureteropelvic junction.For the partial fulfillment of a Master's degree in Pharmacology     

Is cytomegalovirus a cause of ureteral stricture in renal transplant recipients?

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is regarded as a predominant infectious agent in solid organ transplants. CMV disease has highly protean clinical manifestations. Nevertheless, urinary tract involvement seems to be very rare during CMV infection. We report two cases of renal transplant recipients in whom ureteral stricture developed in the course of CMV disease. Histologic data were available for them and were consistent with CMV infection. We discuss previous case reports and propose physiopathologic mechanisms. Received: 3 October 1996 Received after revision: 13 February 1997 Accepted: 17 February 1997
