【Objective】 To summarize the clinicopathological features and prognosis of young patients (18-40 years old) with non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma (nccRCC) treated in a single center to provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of similar patients. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 113 nccRCC patients treated during Jan. 2012 and Aug. 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 57 males (50.4%) and 56 females (49.6%). The average age of onset was (31.6±5.8) years. Among all patients, 57 had lesions (50.4%) on the left side, and 56 (49.6%) on the right side. Young patients undergoing renal cancer surgery accounted for approximately 12.4% of the total number of renal cancer patients undergoing surgery, and nccRCC accounted for 34.8% of the total number of cases. 【Results】 Minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopic or robot-assisted) was performed in 102 cases (90.3%), and open surgery in 11 cases (9.7%). Fifty-five cases (48.7%) underwent partial nephrectomy and 58 (51.3%) radical nephrectomy. Among them, 11 patients (9.7%) developed tumor thrombi. All surgeries were successful with no serious complications. The pathological types included 32 cases (28.3%) of chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, 25 cases (22.1%) of MiT family translocation renal cell carcinoma, and 20 cases (17.7%) of papillary renal cell carcinoma. The total proportion of the three pathological subtypes reached 68.1%. After 46 (2-115) months of follow-up, 8 cases (7.8%, 8/102) developed tumor metastasis and 2 died. 【Conclusion】 The nccRCC is rare in young patients. The major pathological type is chromophobe, and the major treatment method is minimally invasive surgery. Most pathological types have good long-term prognosis, while patients with tumor thrombi have a high risk of metastasis and poor prognosis.

【Objective】 To explore the effects of finasteride on the gene expression in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) through transcriptome analysis. 【Methods】 Postoperative prostate tissues from patients who underwent prostatectomy at Peking University Third Hospital during Oct.2020 and Oct.2021 were collected.The patients were divided into medication group and non-medication group based on whether they had taken finasteride for a long time before surgery, with 8 patients in either groups.Transcriptome sequencing analysis was performed and the results were validated with qPCR and immunohistochemistry analysis. 【Results】 Compared with the non-medication group, 857 up-regulated and 806 down-regulated genes were screened in the medication group.Pathway enrichment analysis showed that finasteride induced down-regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor D (VEGFD) expression in the focal adhesion pathway.Inter group network analysis suggested that the calcium signaling pathway was key in the entire process.GSEA enrichment analysis further revealed the up regulation of CD38 gene expression in the calcium signaling pathway.The qPCR and immunohistochemistry analysis supported the transcriptome results mentioned above, and found that androgen receptor (AR) expression was also increased. 【Conclusion】 Finasteride reduces prostate microvascular formation by downregulating the expression of VEGFD in the focal adhesion pathway, thereby reducing the risk of bleeding during prostate hyperplasia surgery. Long-term use of finasteride leads to the up regulation of CD38 expression in the calcium signaling pathway, which may lead to the development of finasteride resistance.

Objective:To assess whether urinary incontinence after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is associated with membranous urethral length(MUL)on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging.Methods:The data of 96 patients who underwent HoLEP from January 2019 to April 2021 in Peking University Third Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. For all patients, the average age was (70.0±7.7) years old, the average body mass index was (23.9±2.9)kg/m 2, median pre-biopsy PSA was 3.79(2.48, 6.03)ng/ml, the average prostatic volume was (60.5±35.0)ml. 22 patients(22.9%) suffered with diabetes mellitus, and 17 patients(17.7%)had at least one time urinary retention. MUL was measured on MRI as the vertical distance from prostatic apex to the entry of the urethra into the penile bulb. All patients' median MUL was 13(11, 17)mm. The recovery of continence was followed up 2 weeks after HoLEP. The difference of age, body mass index, preoperative PSA, diabetes mellitus, urinary retention, prostate volume and MUL between urinary continence and incontinence group 2 weeks after HoLEP operation. The variables with P<0.1 were included in multivariable logistic regression to analyze the independent risk factors of urinary incontinence after HoLEP were compared. Results:All operations were successfully completed. The continence returned to normal in 72 cases (75.0%) and urinary incontinence existed in 24 cases (25.0%) in 2 weeks after surgery. There were 27 cases (37.5%) in continence group and 16 cases (66.7%) in incontinence group for those aged≥70 years. 21 cases (29.2%) in continence group and 13 cases (54.2%) in incontinence group had prostate volume ≥ 60 ml. There were 30 cases (41.7%) in continence group and 20 cases (83.3%) in incontinence group with MUL<13 mm. χ 2 test showed that age ( P=0.013), prostate volume ( P=0.027) and MUL ( P<0.001) were related to the incontinence after surgery. The age, prostate volume and MUL were included in the multivariate logistic regression analysis. Multiple logistic regression showed that MUL<13 mm( P<0.001) was independent predictor for incontinence after HoLEP. Conclusions:The incidence of urinary incontinence was high 2 weeks after HoLEP. Short MUL, which is less than 13 mm, is significantly associated with delayed recovery of urinary continence after HoLEP.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of massive intraoperative bleeding in patients with renal cell carcinoma and tumor thrombus.Methods:Data of 177 patients with renal cell carcinoma and tumor thrombus in Peking University Third Hospital from January 2017 to July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 129 males and 48 females. The average age was (59.3±10.6) years. The tumors were located on the left in 66 cases and on the right in 111 cases. The tumor size was less than 7 cm in 52 cases, 7-10 cm in 63 cases and >10 cm in 62 cases. There were 45 cases with tumor thrombus of Mayo grade 0, 101 cases of grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ and 31 cases of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ. There were 93 cases undergoing laparoscopic surgery and 84 cases undergoing open surgery. Segmental resection of vena cava was performed in 30 cases. Massive intraoperative bleeding was defined as the total of bleeding ≥ 1 500 ml. The difference of clinical data between massive bleeding group and non-massive bleeding group was compared. Logistic multivariate regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of massive intraoperative bleeding.Result:The median intraoperative bleeding of 177 cases was 600 (200, 1 500) ml. There were 50 cases (28.2%) in massive bleeding group and 127 cases(71.8%) in non-massive bleeding group. Comparing massive bleeding group and non-massive bleeding group, the preoperative ASA scores of 1-2 scores were 38 cases (76.0%) and 114 cases (89.8%) respectively, and the 3 scores were 12 cases (24.0%) and 13 cases (10.2%) respectively ( P=0.029); Hemoglobin was (116.8±23.1) g/L and (127.6±23.6) g/L respectively ( P=0.006); The tumor size less than 7 cm in 10 cases (20.0%) and 42 cases (33.1%), 7-10 cm in 15 cases (30.0%) and 48 cases (37.8%), and >10 cm in 25 cases (50.0%) and 37 cases (29.1%)( P=0.024); Tumor thrombus of Mayo grade 0 were 3 cases (6.0%) and 42 cases (33.1%), grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ were 27 cases (54.0%) and 74 cases (58.3%), grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ were 20 cases (40.0%) and 11 cases (8.6%) respectively ( P<0.01); Open surgery were performed in 42 (84.0%) and 42 (33.1%) cases ( P<0.01); Segmental resection of vena cava was performed in 19 cases (38.0%) and 11 cases (8.7%) respectively ( P<0.01). Multivariate analysis showed that Mayo grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ tumor thrombus ( OR=10.261, P=0.006), tumor size > 10 cm ( OR=3.223, P=0.030), open surgery ( OR=5.454, P<0.01) and segmental resection of vena cava ( OR=4.441, P<0.01) were independent risk factors for massive intraoperative bleeding. The median bleeding of Mayo grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ tumor thrombus, tumor size >10cm, open surgery and segmental resection of vena cava were 2000, 750, 1 450 and 1 650 ml respectively. Conclusions:Renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus has a high risk of bleeding. Mayo grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ tumor thrombus, tumor size >10 cm, open surgery and segmental resection of vena cava are independent risk factors for massive intraoperative bleeding.

Objective:To Explore the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of FH-deficient renal cell carcinoma (FH-deficient RCC) with tumor thrombus, and share surgical experience.Methods:From August 2019 to October 2022, 6 cases of FH-deficient RCC with tumor thrombus were diagnosed and treated in our center, including 4 males and 2 females. The patients were aged 22 to 57 years, with 2 cases younger than 40 years, icluding 5 cases on the left and 1 case on the right. The median maximum diameter of the tumor is 8 (4.8, 14.0) cm. Operations were performed after complete examination (enhanced CT and other related examinations). One case underwent open surgery and palliative resection of the left kidney was performed because of severe adhesion of the inferior vena cava. Among the remaining 5 cases, 1 case underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic right radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava thrombectomy, 1 case underwent transabdominal laparoscopic left radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava thrombectomy, and 3 cases underwent robot assisted laparoscopic left radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava thrombectomy.Results:The median surgical time was 293 (185, 366) min, with blockage of the vena cava for 13 min and 28 min in 2 of 6 cases, respectively. The pathological report of renal tumor and tumor thrombus was FH-deficient renal carcinoma. The pathological features were as follows: the gross section of the specimen was gray yellow solid, often accompanied by necrosis, and the cystic cavity could be seen locally. Microscopically, the tumor extensively involved the renal parenchyma, with papillary, cribriform and tubular cystic structures. Immunohistochemistry showed FH (-), 2SC (+ ). The median postoperative hospital stay was 8 (4, 15) days. The median follow-up time was 13 (4, 27) months. One patient undergoing palliative resection of the left kidney underwent targeted therapy and radiotherapy after surgery (died 15 months after surgery due to gastrointestinal perforation). During the follow-up process, 4 cases experienced metastasis and received systematic treatment, with 1 death 27 months after surgery. Uterine leiomyomas were found in the remaining 1 case during follow-up.Conclusions:FH-deficient RCC with tumor thrombus is very rare. This disease is highly invasive, difficult to be diagnosed preoperatively and poor clinically prognostic. Operation combined with systemic therapy is an effective way to treat FH-deficient RCC with tumor thrombus.

【Objective】 To investigate the clinical characteristics and treatment strategy of giant multilocular prostatic cystadenoma(GMPC). 【Methods】 The clinical data of a GMPC patient treated in our hospital in July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The patient was 73 years old. The clinical manifestations were urgent urination and frequent urination. The prostate specific antigen (PSA) increased slightly. MRI showed giant cystic solid space occupying lesion of the prostate. Domestic and foreign cases of prostate cystadenoma from 2000 to 2021 were retrieved for literature review. 【Results】 Transabdominal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy was performed successfully. The postoperative pathological diagnosis was GMPC. Two weeks after operation, the urinary catheter was removed, and there was no discomfort such as urinary frequency or urinary incontinence. After follow-up for more than 8 months, there was no tumor recurrence or metastasis. 【Conclusion】 There are still some disputes about the oncological characteristics and diagnosis and treatment of GMPC, and there is a lack of long-term follow-up results. Laparoscopic prostatectomy is safe and feasible. Most patients have a good prognosis after surgical treatment. It is necessary to formulate an individualized standard treatment plan based on surgery combined with different patients’ conditions to actively improve the prognosis.

The patient, a 56-year old male, was admitted to the hospital for recurrent bladder cancer in November 29, 2021. The patient had previously undergone partial cystectomy, simultaneous radio-chemotherapy to preserve the bladder, and repeated 4 times TURBt. CT suggested T 3 stage bladder cancer in left bladder wall, and causing left hydronephrosis. Under general anesthesia, robot-assisted laparoscopic radical cystectomy and complete intraperitoneal orthotopic ileal neobladder reconstruction were performed. The operation was successful, the postoperative recovery was good, and the patient was discharged 7 days after surgery. Postoperative pathological diagnosis was T 2b, high-grade urothelial carcinoma with left pelvic lymph node metastasis. Three months after operation, the patient had no recurrence, the new bladder function was good, the urine could be completely controlled during the day, and the intestinal and renal functions recovered well. At present, we carried out adjuvant chemotherapy (Gemcitabine+ Cisplatin)to this patient. The technical of radical cystectomy and orthotopic ileal neobladder with a history of surgery and radiotherapy is high, expensive experience in laparoscopic surgery and elaborate actions of robotic surgery are important prerequisites for completing such surgery.

Objective:To investigate the effect of different imaging classifications of prostate cancer seminal vesicle invasion on positive surgical margins (PSM) after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy(LRP).Methods:114 patients with pT 3b stage prostate cancer admitted to Peking University Third Hospital from August 2009 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The age of the patients was (68.2±7.7) years old, the median pre-biopsy PSA was 20.20 (3.45-186.30) ng/ml, and the patients with biopsy Gleason score of ≤7, and ≥8 was 33 and 81 cases, respectively. The median prostate volume was 33.2 (12.1-155.4) ml. According to the imaging of the seminal vesicle invasion of prostate cancer, the patients were divided into the following types: type Ⅰ, the tumor directly invades the seminal vesicle along the vas deferens; type Ⅱa, the tumor invades the basal capsule of the prostate and invades the seminal vesicle; type Ⅱb, the tumor invades the periprostatic fat and retrogradely invades the seminal vesicles; type Ⅲ, solitary lesions in the seminal vesicles that do not continue with the prostate cancer. All patients underwent LRP, and the PSM were recorded as the base, bilateral, posterior, anterior and apical parts of the prostate. The differences in clinicopathological data of patients with different seminal vesicle invasion imaging types were compared, and the independent risk factors of PSM in pT 3b prostate cancer were evaluated by multivariate analysis. Results:The operative time of 114 cases in this group was (229.4±62.2) min, and the blood loss was 100(20-1 800)ml. The postoperative gross pathological Gleason score was ≤7 in 17 cases and ≥8 in 97 cases. In the imaging classification of prostate cancer with seminal vesicle invasion, there were 28 cases (24.6%) of type Ⅰ, 39 cases (34.2%) of type Ⅱa, 47 cases (41.2%) of type Ⅱb, and no type Ⅲ patients. There was no significant difference in age, body mass index, pre-biopsy PSA, prostate volume, and operation time among patients with type Ⅰ, Ⅱa, and Ⅱb seminal vesicle invasion ( P>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in blood loss among the three types ( P = 0.001), and the difference in the proportion of lymph node metastasis was statistically significant ( P = 0.013). In the classification of prostate cancer seminal vesicle invasion, the PSM rates of type Ⅰ, Ⅱa and Ⅱb were 28.6% (8/28), 38.5% (15/39) and 70.2% (33/39), and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.001). The PSM rates of type Ⅰ, Ⅱa, and Ⅱb were 21.4% (6/28), 23.1% (9/39), and 34.0% (16/47), respectively. The results of univariate analysis showed that the biopsy Gleason score ( P = 0.063) and the type of seminal vesicle invasion ( P<0.001) entered into multivariate analysis, and the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the type of seminal vesicle invasion ( P=0.001) was independent risk factor for PSM after LRP. Conclusions:The PSM rate in patients with type Ⅱb seminal vesicle invasion is significantly higher. The higher imaging type of seminal vesicle invasion is the independent risk factor of PSM after LRP.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between preoperative platelet parameters and clinicopathological features of renal cell carcinoma.Methods:The data of 452 patients with renal cell carcinoma treated in the Peking University Third Hospital from January 2015 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed, including 308 males and 144 females, and the mean age was 56.5(15-86) years. There were 178 cases, 72 cases, and 42 cases combined with hypertension, diabetes, and coronary heart disease, respectively. Preoperative platelet parameters were the mean PLT of 218.56(72-568)×10 9/L, MPV of 9.65(6.2-20.5)fl, PDW of 14.44(7.9-23.1) fl, and PCT of 20.72%(8%-49%). The data of 253 patients with simple renal cysts were selected as the controls, including 140 males and 113 females, and the mean age was 58(9-84) years. There were 178 cases, 72 cases, and 42 cases combined with hypertension, diabetes, and coronary heart disease, respectively. Preoperative platelet parameters were the mean PLT of 207.08(84-362)×10 9/L, MPV of 9.50(6.9-13.9)fl, PDW of 14.59(8.9-21.6)fl, and PCT of 19.49%(9%-36%). Propensity score matching method was used to balance the baseline differences between the two groups, and the differences of platelet parameters between the two groups were compared. The correlation between different clinicopathological characteristics of renal cell carcinoma and platelet parameters was analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to explore the risk factors of renal cell carcinoma with lymph node or distant metastasis. Results:After matching the baseline data, PLT( t=1.993, P=0.047) and PCT( t=2.396, P= 0.017) in renal cell carcinoma group were significantly higher than those in controls. Among 452 cases in renal cell carcinoma, there were 395 cases (87.4%) with clear cell renal cell carcinoma and 57 cases (12.6%) with non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma. For pathological stage, there were 325 cases (71.9%) of T 1-T 2 stage and 127 cases (28.1%) of T 3-T 4 stage. In addition, there were 444 cases (98.2%) of N 0 stage, 8 cases (1.8%) of N 1 stage, 428 cases (93.6%) of M 0 stage, and 24 cases (6.4%) of M 1 stage. There were 320 cases of nuclear grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ, 99 cases of nuclear grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ, and 33 cases without nuclear grade. Preoperative high PLT was significantly correlated with T 3-T 4( t=3.409, P=0.001), M 1( t=2.772, P=0.011) and nuclear grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ( t=2.859, P=0.005). Low MPV was significantly correlated with M 1( t=2.981, P=0.003). Low PDW was correlated with T 3-T 4( t=2.567, P=0.011). High PCT was significantly correlated with T 3-T 4( t=2.722, P=0.007) and nuclear grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ( t=3.011, P=0.003). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PLT( OR=1.007, 95% CI 1.002-1.012, P=0.009), clear cell renal cell carcinoma( OR=4.467, 95% CI 1.574-12.679, P=0.005)and nuclear grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ( OR= 5.554, 95% CI 2.399-12.856, P<0.001)were independent risk factors for lymph node or distant metastasis of RCC. Conclusions:PLT and PCT are higher in patients with renal cell carcinoma compared to simple renal cysts. High PLT, PCT, and low MPV, PDW are correlated with the poor clinicopathological characteristics of renal cell carcinoma. Preoperative PLT can be used as an independent risk factor for lymph node or distant metastasis of renal cell carcinoma.

Objective:To summarize the surgical technique and clinical experience of robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (RN) + venous tumor thrombectomy (VTTE) approach for renal tumor with Mayo grade 0-Ⅲ tumor thrombus, and to discuss its safety and efficacy.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 26 patients with renal tumor associated with Mayo 0-Ⅲ thrombus admitted to Peking University Third Hospital from October 2020 to September 2021. There were 17 male cases and 9 female cases. The mean age was (56.9±13.9) years. The mean body mass index (BMI) was (25.8±3.5) kg/m 2. The renal tumors were located on the left side in 12 cases and on the right side in 14 cases, with a mean tumor diameter of (7.8±2.9) cm. The tumors were graded by Mayo: Mayo 0 in 10 cases, Mayo Ⅰ in 3 cases, Mayo Ⅱ in 11 cases and Mayo Ⅲ in 2 cases. The American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) graded 23 cases as grade 2 and 3 cases as grade 3. All 26 patients were treated by robotic-assisted laparoscopic approach with RN+ VTTE. Mayo 0 tumor thrombus was treated in the same way as radical nephrectomy. For Mayo Ⅰ tumor thrombus, the lateral wall of the IVC at the inferior vena cava (IVC) where the renal vein joins was clamped to partially block the IVC flow and then the thrombus was removed. For Mayo Ⅱ tumor thrombus, after blocking the flow in the IVC with three blocking bands, the wall of the IVC was dissected and the thrombus was removed. For Mayo Ⅲ tumor thrombus: cut the short hepatic vein, free the liver, expose the posterior IVC and follow the same procedure as for Mayo Ⅱ tumor thrombus. Results:All 26 patients in this group were successfully operated on, 1 of which was converted to open surgery. The median operative time was 148.5 (77.0-399.0) min, and the median intraoperative estimated bleeding volume was 300 (10-2000) ml. Postoperative pathological diagnosis: 18 cases of renal clear cell carcinoma, 2 cases of papillary renal cell carcinoma type Ⅱ, 2 cases of TEF gene fusion-related renal carcinoma, 1 case of unclassified renal cell carcinoma, 1 case of uroepithelial carcinoma and 2 cases of AML. In 2 of the 26 cases, segmental resection of the IVC was performed because the right renal VTT had extensively invaded the wall of the IVC. Due to the residual wall thrombus at the head of the tumour thrombus, 1 case underwent inferior vena cava dissection and the inferior vena cava was cut obliquely to preserve the left renal venous return. 6 patients underwent intraoperative lymph node dissection of the hilum, three of which had pathology suggestive of lymph node metastasis. 1 patient underwent adrenalectomy for tumor invasion of the ipsilateral adrenal gland. The median postoperative hospital stay was 7.2(4.0-22.0)d. According to the modified Clavien classification, there were 18 grade Ⅰ and 8 grade Ⅱ postoperative complications. 26 patients were followed up for 1-11 months, with a median follow-up time of 5.5 months. 3 cases developed distant metastases, including 1 case with tumour-specific death due to multiple metastases in the liver and retroperitoneum at 4 months of follow-up.Conclusions:Robotic-assisted laparoscopic RN+ VTTE is a safe and effective procedure for the treatment of renal tumours with Mayo 0 to Ⅲ tumour thrombus, with the advantages of delicate operation, minimal trauma and low incidence of serious postoperative complications.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy in the treatment of renal tumors with renal score of 10.Methods:From February 2016 to March 2021, 23 patients who underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy in Peking University Third Hospital with renal tumors of R. E.N.A.L. score of 10 was studied retrospectively, including 16 cases of male and 7 cases of female, with 11 cases on the right side and 12 cases on the left side. The patients’ age was (55.0±16.4) years, and BMI was (25.4±3.6) kg/m 2. The maximum diameter of the tumor was (3.5±1.4)cm. Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy was performed after complete examination. The observation indexes included operation time, blocking time, complications, postoperative hospital stay and the trifecta (negative surgical margin, blocking time ≤25 minutes, and no perioperative complications). Results:All operations were successfully completed, only 4 cases were converted to open surgery. The median operation time was 153 min(99-346 min). The median blocking time was 27 min(14-60min). The median postoperative hospital stay was 6 d(4-11 d). Postoperative complications occurred in 7 cases(fever in 5 cases, intestinal obstruction in 1 case, postoperative blood transfusion and leg intermuscular venous thrombosis in 1 case). 9 cases (39.1%) achieved the trifecta. 19 cases who completed by laparoscopy, their operation time was 151 min(99-303 min), blocking time was 28 min(18-60 min), postoperative hospital stay was 6 d(4-11 d), fever occurred in 4 cases, and 6 cases achieved the trifecta (31.6%). The follow-up time was 3-62 months, with a median of 32 months, and there was no recurrence or metastasis.Conclusions:Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy is safe and effective in the treatment of renal tumors with renal score of 10.Although the tumor is highly complex, it also achieves the purpose of preserving nephron to the greatest extent. If technical conditions permit, laparoscopic partial nephrectomy could be considered for the treatment of highly complex renal tumors.

Objective:To explore the application of real-time transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) during seminal vesiculoscopy in infertile men with azoospermia or oligoasthenospermia.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 25 cases of azoospermia or oligoasthenospermia due to ejaculate ducts obstruction who were treated with real-time transrectal ultrasound-guided seminal vesiculoscopy between September 2011 and December 2015. Patients’ age was(29.4±4.5) years. All patients accepted semen analysis, serum sex hormone, MRI, TRUS and then diagnosed as obstructive azoospermia, and 13 cases had intractable obstructive azoospermia or oligoasthenospermia after the failure of simple seminal vesiculoscopy(the path to the ejaculatory duct and seminal vesicle couldn’t be found). All patients were treated with seminal vesiculoscopy under real-time guidance with TRUS. We assessed the success rate of surgery, surgical time and complications.Results:The scope was successfully inserted into the seminal vesicle in 21 of the 25 cases (success rate, 84%). The median operative time was 75(31, 148) min. None of the patients developed severe complications. Among 4 failure cases (4/25, 16%), 1 was due to abnormal congenital development. In 2 cases, a clear outlet of the dual ejaculatory duct could not be found after it was inserted into the prostatic utricle. One case was considered as a Müllerian tubular cyst, and the seminal vesicle scope was used to assess the cystic side wall. The 21 patients were followed up for 3 to 6 months, semen volume 2.0(0-5.2)ml, total sperm 28(0-832) ×10 6/ejaculate, sperm density 5.6(0-110.3)×10 6/ml, mobility rate of sperm 5.4%(0-63.6%), and the differences were significant as compared to that before the surgery [semen volume 0.4(0-2.8)ml, total sperm 0(0-342)×10 6/ejaculate, sperm density 0(0-90.7)×10 6/ml, mobility rate of sperm 0(0-24.1%), all P<0.05]. Among the 17 patients who underwent follow-up of 5 to 9 years, 3 patients was conceived naturally and 9 patients’ postoperative sperm quality has improved and pregnancy in vitro fertilization by extracting sperm from semen. Conclusions:Intraoperative real-time transrectal ultrasound guidance can improved the success rate of seminal vesiculoscopy and promoted operative safety.

Objective:To assess the efficacy and safety of 100 units of botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) intradetrusor injection in patients with overactive bladder.Methods:From April 2016 to December 2018, 17 tertiary hospitals were selected to participate in this prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Two phases of study were conducted: the primary phase and the extended phase. This study enrolled patients aged 18 to 75 years who had been inadequately managed by anticholinergic therapy (insufficient efficacy or intolerable side effects) and had spontaneous voiding with overactive bladder. Exclusion criteria included patients with severe cardiac, renal and hepatic disorders, patients with previous botulinum toxin treatment for 6 months or allergic to BTX-A, patients with urinary tract infections, patients with urinary stones, urinary tract tumors, diabetes mellitus, and bleeding tendency. Eligible patients were randomly assigned to BTX-A group and placebo control group in a ratio of 2∶1. Two groups of patients received 20 intradetrusor injections of BTX-A 100U or placebo at the depth of the submucosal muscle layer respectively under cystoscope, including 5 injections at the base of the bladder, 3 injections to the bladder triangle, 5 injections each to the left and right walls and 2 injections to the top, sparing the bladder neck. As a placebo control group, patients received same volume of placebo containing no BTX-A and only adjuvant freeze-dried preparations for injection with the same method. A combination of gelatin, sucrose, and dextran served as adjuvants. Average micturition times per 24 hours, urinary incontinence (UI) episodes per day, average micturition volume per day, OAB symptom score(OABSS), and quality of life (QOL) score were recorded at baseline and the 2nd, 6th and 12th week after treatment. The primary efficacy endpoint was the change from baseline in the average micturition times per 24 hours at the 6th week after treatment. The secondary efficacy endpoints included the change from baseline in the average micturition times per 24 hours at 2nd and 12th week, as well as the change from baseline in the OABSS, QOL score, average frequency of urgency and UI episodes per day, urgency score, average micturition volume per day at 2nd, 6th and 12th week after treatment. Patients were followed for 12 weeks to assess adverse events (AEs). After assessed at week 12, if the micturition times has decreased less than 50% compared to baseline and the patient is willing to receive retreatment, then patients could enter the extended trial phase. In that phase, patients in both groups were injected with 100 units BTX-A from 12th week onwards and then followed up the same indicators for 12 weeks.Results:216 patients were enrolled in this trial (144 cases in the BTX-A group and 72 cases in the placebo control group). Baseline characteristics such as age (47.75±14.20 in the BTX-A group and 46.39±15.55 in the control group), sex (25 male/117 female in the BTX-A group and 10/61 in the control group), and disease duration (0.51 years in the BTX-A group and 0.60 years in the control group) were balanced between the two groups( P>0.05). A marked reduction from baseline in average micturition times per 24 hours was observed in all treatment groups at the 6th week and the reduction of the two groups was statistically different ( P<0.001 and P=0.008 respectively). Compared with the baseline, the average micturition times per 24 hours at the 6th week decreased from baseline by 2.40(0.70, 4.60)times for the BTX-A group and 0.70(-1.00, 3.30) times for the placebo control group respectively, and the difference between the two groups was considered to be statistically significant ( P=0.003). The change rates of average micturition times per 24 hours from baseline at the 6th week of the two groups were (16±22)% and (8±25)% respectively, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.014). Compared with the baseline, the average micturition times per 24 hours at 2nd and 12th week decreased by 2.00(0.00, 4.00)and 3.30(0.60, 5.03)for the BTX-A group, 1.00(-1.00, 3.00)and 1.70(-1.45, 3.85)for the placebo control group respectively. The difference between two groups was considered to be statistically significant ( P=0.038 and P=0.012); the changes of average urgency times per day for the BTX-A group and the control group at the 2nd, 6th and 12th week were 2.00(0.00, 4.30)and 2.40(0.30, 5.00), 3.00(0.30, 5.70)and 0.70(-1.30, 2.70), 0.70(-1.30, 3.00) and 1.35(-1.15, 3.50), respectively. There were significant differences between two groups at the 2nd, 6th and 12th week, ( P=0.010, P=0.003 and P=0.025, respectively). The OABSS of the BTX-A group and the control group at the 6th week decreased by 1.00(0.00, 4.00)and 0.50(-1.00, 2.00) compared with the baseline, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.003). 47 cases of BTX-A group and 34 cases of placebo control group entered the extended trial phase, and 40 and 28 cases completed the extended trial phase, respectively. The average micturition volume per 24 hours changed by -16.60(-41.60, -0.60)ml and -6.40(-22.40, 13.30)ml, (-35.67±54.41)ml and(-1.76±48.69)ml, (-36.14±41.51)ml and (-9.28±44.59)ml, (-35.85±43.35)ml and(-10.41±40.29)ml for two groups at the 12th, 14th, 18th and 24th week, and the difference between two groups was statistically significant at each follow-up time ( P=0.01, 0.006, 0.012 and 0.016, respectively). There was no significant difference in other parameters( P>0.05). However, adverse reactions after intradetrusor injection included increased residual urine volume (27 in the BTX-A group and 3 in the control group), dysuria (21 in the BTX-A group and 6 in the control group), urinary infection (19 in the BTX-A group and 6 in the control group), bladder neck obstruction (3 in the BTX-A group and 0 in the control group), hematuria (3 in the BTX-A group and 1 in the control group), elevated alanine aminotransferase (3 in the BTX-A group and 0 in the control group), etc. During the follow-up period, there was no significant difference in the other adverse events between two groups except the increase of residual urine volume( P<0.05). In the primary trial phase, among the 27 cases with increased residual urine volume in BTA group, only 1 case (3.70%) with PVR more than 300 ml; the PVR of 3 patients in the placebo group was less than 100 ml. The increase of residual urine volume caused by the injection could be improved or disappeared with the passage of time. Conclusions:Intradetrusor injection of Chinese BTX-A improved the average micturition times per 24 hours, the average daily urgent micturition times, OABSS, and average micturition volume per time, and reduced the adverse effects in patients with overactive bladder.Chinese BTX-A at dose of 100U demonstrated durable efficacy and safety in the management of overactive bladder.

Objective:To disiuss the application of liver free technique in renal cell carcinoma patients with Mayo Ⅱ-Ⅳ tumor thrombus.Methods:The clinical data of renal cell carcinoma patients with MayoⅡ-Ⅳ IVC tumor thrombus in our hospital from January 2014 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. 25 patients underwent right part of liver or hepatic portal part dissection via open abdominal approach. There were 20 males and 5 females, aged 45-74 years (mean 61±6 years). All patients underwent urinary tract CTU or MRU examination, vena cava enhanced magnetic resonance angiography.There were left 8 cases, right 17 cases; the median length of tumor was 7 cm (3.6-12.1 cm). There were 1 case of Mayo grade Ⅱ tumor thrombus, 7 cases of Mayo grade Ⅲ tumor thrombus, and 17 cases of Mayo grade Ⅳ tumor thrombus. There were 7 cases of distant metastasis, including 6 cases of lung metastasis and 1 case of bone metastasis. After multi-disciplinary consultation (MDT), 19 patients underwent radical nephrectomy and 6 patients underwent tumor reducing nephrectomy. During the operation, the ligaments around the liver were completely dissociated and the space between the liver and kidney was opened. The bare area of the liver was fully dissociated, to expose the inferior vena cava. For Mayo grade Ⅳ tumor thrombus, 11 cases were treated with free diaphragmatic thrombus removal without thoracotomy, and 6 cases were treated with open chest cardiopulmonary bypass.Results:The median operation time was 444(258-694)min, the median intraoperative blood loss was 2 000(250-10 000)ml, and the median value of suspended red blood cell transfusion was 1 300(400-10 400)ml. The median postoperative hospital stay was 10(4-25)days.15 patients (60%) had postoperative complications, including 8 cases of liver injury, 5 cases of respiratory complications, 4 cases of kidney injury, 3 cases of anemia, 3 cases of infection and 1 case of thrombosis. Three patients died during perioperative period.Conclusions:The application of total liver free technique might obtain good exposure of surgical field, effectively control the hemorrhage of inferior vena cava, which is helpful for safe resection of tumor.

Zoster sine herpete (ZSH) is one of the atypical clinical manifestations of herpes zoster (HZ), which stems from infection and reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in the cranial nerve, spinal nerve, viscera, or autonomic nerve. Patients with ZSH display variable symptoms, such as neuralgia, however, different from HZ, ZSH show no zoster, which makes clinical diagnosis difficult. ZSH not only causes initial symptoms, such as neuropathic pain in the affected nerve, Bell palsy, and Ramsay Hunt syndrome, but also postherpetic neuralgia and fatal complications such as VZV encephalitis and stroke. The misdiagnosis of ZSH and tardy antiviral treatment may lead to severe ZSH sequelae. We review the publications related to ZSH, especially its diagnosis with VZV DNA and/or anti-VZV immunoglobulin (IgG and IgM). More work about ZSH, especially ZSH epidemiological survey and guidelines for its diagnosis and treatment, are needed because most of the present studies are case reports.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for Gleason score upgrading after radical prostatectomy in clinical low-risk prostate cancer patients aged≥65 years.Methods:A total of 485 clinical low-risk prostate cancer patients aged≥65 years at five centers of the national multi-center PC-follow database from January 2015 to March 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Data including age at diagnosis, prostate-specific antigen(PSA), MRI prostate imaging, puncture Gleason score, operation method, puncture method, positive incision margin and capsule penetration were collected.Differences in Gleason scores before and after operation were compared, and the risk factors for Gleason score upgrading after radical resection were evaluated by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results:Of 485 patients with a puncture Gleason score of 3+ 3=6, 261(53.8%)cases had postoperative pathological upgrading, in whom 228(87.4%)cases had Gleason score upgrading of 7, 22(8.4%)had Gleason score upgrading of 8, and 11(4.2%)had Gleason score upgrading of 9 or more.The rate of Gleason score upgrading was elevated with increased preoperative PSA levels, positive pelvic MRI, and higher positive rates of puncture biopsy.The incidences of postoperative capsule penetration(27.2% vs.12.5%, P<0.001)and positive incision margin(25.2% vs.17.4%, P=0.036)had statistically significant differences between the pathologically upgraded group and the pathologically non-upgraded group.Multivariate analysis showed that preoperative PSA level, percentage of positive puncture biopsies, biopsy Gleason score and pelvic MRI were independent predictors of prostate cancer. Conclusions:For clinical low-risk prostate cancer patients aged≥65 years with high risk factors for Gleason score upgrading, repeated biopsies should be carried out when necessary and the treatment plan should be adjusted accordingly.

Objective:To establish a nomogram model for predicting positive resection margins after prostate cancer surgery, and to perform the corresponding verification, in order to predict the risk of positive resection margins after surgery.Methods:A total of 2 215 prostate cancer patients from The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, Hospital, Peking University First Hospital, Peking University Third Hospital, Peking University, and First Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University were included in the PC-follow database from 2015 to 2018, and a simple random sampling method was used. They were divided into 1 770 patients in the modeling group and 445 patients in the verification group. In the modeling group, the age (<60 years, 60 to 70 years, >70 years), PSA (<4 ng/ml, 4-10 ng/ml, 11-20 ng/ml, >20 ng/ml), pelvic MRI (negative, suspicious, positive), clinical stage of the tumor (T 1-T 2, ≥T 3), percentage of positive needles (≤33%, 34%-66%, >66%), Gleason score of biopsy pathology (≤6 points, 7 points, ≥8 points). Univariate and multivariate logistic analysis were performed to screen meaningful indicators to construct a nomogram model. The model was used for validation in the validation group. Results:The results of multivariate analysis showed that preoperative PSA level ( OR=2.046, 95% CI 1.022 to 4.251, P=0.009), percentage of puncture positive needles ( OR=1.502, 95% CI 1.136 to 1.978, P=0.002), Gleason score of puncture pathology ( OR=1.568, 95% CI 1.063 to 2.313, P=0.028), pelvic MRI were correlated ( OR=1.525, 95% CI 1.160 to 2.005, P=0.033). Establish a nomogram model for independent predictors of positive margin of prostate cancer. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of the validation group is 0.776. The area under the ROC curve of the preoperative PSA level, percentage of puncture positive needles, puncture pathology Gleason score, pelvic MRI, postoperative pathology Gleason score were 0.554, 0.615, 0.556, 0.522, and 0.560, respectively. The difference between the nomogram model and other indicators was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The constructed nomogram model has higher diagnostic value than the preoperative PSA level, percentage of puncture positive needles, Gleason score of puncturing pathology, pelvic MRI, and postoperative pathological Gleason score in predicting positive margin.
