OBJECTIVE: To evaluate clinical outcomes and values of transperitoneal laparoscopic ureterolithotomy. METHODS: A total of 1171 patients with upper ureteral calculi were recruited during September 1999 to February 2012. The etiologies included impacted calculi (n = 1100), non-impacted calculi (n = 71), multiple ureteral calculi (n = 51) and combined small calculi in unilateral kidney (n = 139). Maximum diameter of calculi was 1.5 (0.8-2.6) cm. All patients underwent transperitoneal laparoscopic ureterolithotomy and double J stent was implanted intraoperatively. RESULTS: Two cases were converted into open operation. Calculi moving up into pelvis occurred in 27 cases. And 25 cases converted into laparoscopic pyelolithotomy and stones were removed successfully. Two cases received extra extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy postoperatively. The remaining 1142 cases were treated successfully with an operative duration of 56.1 (26-160) min and an estimated volume of blood loss at 45.2 (10-250) ml. The period of drainage tube was 3.1 (1-7) days. Postoperative hospitalization stay was 4.8 (3-9) days. One patient suffered urine leakage and healed at Day 6 days post-operation. Ten cases suffered D-J stent bladder non-arrival or retraction and double J stents were extracted by ureteroscopy. One case suffered paralytic ileus and recovered 7 days later. Another case suffered severe hematuria. No intestine or adjacent viscera injury was observed. The follow-up period of 827 cases was 7.3 (24-108) months. Among 12 cases of ureteral stricture, ureteral dilation (n = 7) and ureteral anastomosis (n = 3) were performed. For 5 cases of renal atrophy, 3 underwent nephrectomy because of recurrent lumbago or persistent urinary infection. CONCLUSIONS: Transperitoneal laparoscopic ureterolithotomy has the advantages of minimal morbidity, little postoperative discomfort and high stone clearance rate over open surgery. It should be widely adopted for the patients with upper ureteral impacted calculi.

OBJECTIVE: To introduce a novel surgical technique for correction of adult congenital webbed penis. METHODS: From March 2010 to December 2011, 12 patients (age range: 14-23 years old) were diagnosed as having a webbed penis and underwent a new surgical procedure designed by us. RESULTS: All cases were treated successfully without severe complication. The operation time ranged from 20 min to 1 h. The average bleeding volume was less than 50 ml. All patients achieved satisfactory cosmetic results after surgery. The penile curvature disappeared in all cases and all patients remained well after 1 to 3 months of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Adult webbed penis with complaints of discomfort or psychological pressure due to a poor profile should be indicators for surgery. Good corrective surgery should expose the glans and coronal sulcus, match the penile skin length to the penile shaft length dorsally and ventrally, and provide a normal penoscrotal junction. Our new technique is a safe and effective method for the correction of adult webbed penis, which produces satisfactory results.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the feasibility and short-term clinical effect of transperitoneal laparoscopic modified retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (LmRPLND) in the management of clinical Stage I nonseminomatous germ cell testicular tumors. METHODS: From October 2004 to July 2006, 7 patients aged 26-36 (mean 30) years underwent LmRPLND with modified unilateral template dissection for clinical Stage I nonseminomatous germ cell testicular tumors, which were 3.0 cm x 2.5 cm x 2.0 cm to 6.5 cm x 4.5 cm x 3.0 cm in size, 3 cases on the left and 4 on the right, all diagnosed by ultrasound, computerized tomography (CT) and chest X-ray and confirmed by biopsy following radical orchiectomy. Those with positive lymph nodes received 3 courses of chemotherapy. RESULTS: Success was achieved in all the 7 cases, the operative time ranging from 120 to 210 min (mean 160 min), blood loss from 50 to 200 ml (mean 150 ml), and with no blood transfusion. The drainage tubes were removed 1-2 days after surgery. The mean postoperative hospital stay was 5.5 days. The follow-up lasted 6-32 (mean 14) months, which revealed normal erection and ejaculation in all the patients, but no major postoperative complications. Pathologically, lymph nodes were negative in 6 cases and positive (1/18) in 1. Normal results were obtained in HCG and AFP tests as well as in retroperitoneal ultrasound and chest X-ray examinations. The patient with positive lymph nodes was treated by adjuvant chemotherapy for 3 courses and found free of malignancy during a 6-month follow-up. CONCLUSION: LmRPLND is a safe and minimally invasive treatment option for patients with clinical Stage I nonseminomatous germ cell testicular carcinoma. With fewer complications and faster recovery, it appears to be a desirable substitute for the open procedure.

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: The management of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with inferior vena cava (IVC) tumor thrombus is difficult in clinical practice. Complete surgical removal of the primary tumor with its extension along the IVC is the only hope for a potential cure. The diagnosis of vena caval invasion, especially the determination of tumor thrombus extension, is important for surgical approach planning. This report was to summarize our experiences on treating RCC with IVC tumor thrombus, and explore the diagnosis and surgical management. METHODS: Clinical data, including preoperative diagnosis, operation pattern, and prognosis, of 6 RCC patients with IVC tumor thrombus, treated from 2000 to 2004 in our hospital, were reviewed retrospectively. RESULTS: Diagnoses of the 6 cases of RCC with IVC tumor thrombus were made by ultrasonography, computed tomography (CT), or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) preoperatively. Of the 6 cases, 1 was renal vein thrombus, 3 were infrahepatic thrombus, 2 were hepatic thrombus. Operations were performed for all 6 patients with 5 successes except 1 death during the operation. The patients were followed-up for 3-30 months after operation; 2 died of distant metastases 3 and 9 months after operation, and the other 3 survived disease-freely. CONCLUSIONS: CT and MRI are the best ways to diagnose RCC with IVC tumor thrombus. Surgical treatment is the preferred approach for the patients without distant metastases and lymph node involvement. Surgical strategy depends on the tumor thrombus extension and the vena wall involvement status.

OBJECTIVES: To discuss the surgical method of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with inguinal hernia. METHODS: Twenty eight cases of BPH with inguinal hernia were treated with transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) combined with repair of inguinal hernia by PPM at the same time. RESULTS: All patients had been followed up for six months to four years, in which recurrence of hernia or other complications were not found. Qmax was more than 15 ml/s after operations, and IPSS were about 0-7 scores for all patients. The mean time of hospitalization was 4.2 days. CONCLUSIONS: TURP combined with repair of inguinal hernia at the same time is a simple and effective method, which can avoid second operation, and it is more significance to the aged especially.
