Objectives We got a good effect on one patient who diagnosed Deep Vein Thrombosis after cystostomy. Methods The patient was treated with Acupuncture, Herbal medication, Venesection. To evaluate the edema, pain of leg, Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) and the measurement of leg circumference are used. Results 1. The discrepancy of the leg circumference is decreased from 3.1㎝ to 1.6㎝. 2. The Visual Analogue Scale was decreased from 10 to 2-1. Conclusions In this case, the patient who diagnosed Deep Vein Thrombosis(DVT) after cystostomy treated by Acupuncture, Herbal medication, Venesection was improved. We are reporting this case.

The purpose of this case study is to report the effect of electroacupuncture at acupoints Baliao (BL31 Shangliao, BL32 Ciliao, BL33 Zhongliao, BL34 Xialiao) on patients with voiding problem. Neurogenic Bladder can be classified according to whether impairment of urinary reservoir or emptying. The first case was a patient with urinary emptying impairment. He was diagnosed with areflexic neurogenic bladder, and was managed with suprapubic cystostomy. After starting of electroacupuncture on Baliao, residual urine volume was gradually decreased, at last cystostomy could be removed. The second case was a patient with urinary reservoir impairment. She complained symptoms of urinary frequency, nocturia due to overactive bladder. After starting of electroacupuncture on Baliao, urination frequency was significantly decreased. We consider electroacupuncture on Baliao may have a useful effect on voiding problem, both urinary reservoir and emptying impairment.

The effect of bile deprivation on serum lipid and gastrin contents was investigat\ulcornered after choledocho-urinary cystostomy in Sprague-Dawley rats. Bile deprivated rats were compared with sham operated control group. Gastrin levels in serum and antral tissue were measured and serum lipid concentrations were also measured. Gastrin levels of serum and tissue after bile deprivation were increased significantly compared with those of the controL At the end of 1st and 2nd week after bile deprivation, serum cholesterol and triglyceride contents were significantly lower han those of the control. By 4th week, there was no significant difference between two groups. Increases in serum and antral gastrin levels temporarily coincided well with decreases in serum lipid contents after bile deprivation. These results suggest that there is increase in biosynthesis and release of gastrin and decrease in fat absorption at early stage of bile deprivation.

To review recent advances in endoscopic techniques for treating intraventricular lesions via transcortical passage. Articles in PubMed published since 2000 were searched using the keywords 'endoscopy,' 'endoscopic,' and 'neuroendoscopic.' Of these articles, those describing intraventricular lesions were reviewed. Suprasellar arachnoid cysts (SACs) can be treated with ventriculo-cystostomy (VC) or ventriculo-cysto-cisternostomy (VCC). VCC showed better results compared to VC. Procedure type, fenestration size, stent placement, and aqueductal patency may affect SAC prognosis. Colloid cysts can be managed using a transforaminal approach (TA) or a transforaminal-transchoroidal approach (TTA). However, TTA may result in better exposure compared to TA. Intraventricular cysticercosis can be cured with an endoscopic procedure alone, but if pericystic inflammation and/or ependymal reaction are seen, third ventriculostomy may be recommended. Tumor biopsies have yielded successful diagnosis rates of up to 100%, but tumor location, total specimen size, endoscope type, and vigorous coagulation on the tumor surface may affect diagnostic accuracy. An ideal indication for tumor excision is a small tumor with friable consistency and little vascularity. Tumor size, composition, and vascularity may influence a complete resection. SACs and intraventricular cysticercosis can be treated successfully using endoscopic procedures. Endoscopic procedures may represent an alternative to surgical options for colloid cyst removal. Solid tumors can be safely biopsied using endoscopic techniques, but endoscopy for tumor resection still results in considerable challenges.

This report describes the use of a tubularized random flap for the curative treatment of recurrent anterior urethral stricture. Under the condition of pendulous lithotomy and suprapubic cystostomy, the urethral stricture was removed via a midline ventral penile incision followed by elevation of the flap and insertion of an 18-Fr catheter. Subcutaneous buried interrupted sutures were used to reapproximate the waterproof tubularized neourethra and to coapt with the neourethra and each stump of the urethra, first proximally and then distally. The defect of the penile shaft was covered by advancement of the surrounding scrotal flap. The indwelling catheter was maintained for 21 days. A 9 month postoperative cystoscopy showed no flap necrosis, no mechanical stricture, and no hair growth on the lumen of the neourethra. The patient showed no voiding discomfort 6 months after the operation. The advantages of this procedure are the lack of need for microsurgery, shortening of admission, the use of only spinal anesthesia (no general anesthesia), and a relatively short operative time. The tubularized unilateral penile fasciocutaneous flap should be considered an option for initial flap urethroplasty as a curative technique.

Six patients (5 dogs, 1 cat) were referred with the complications of urinary tract injuries. Clinical signs were vomiting (4/6), oliguria (2/6) and anuria (3/6). Four females had been spayed, 1 male had cryptorchid orchiectomy and 1 male had been operated for removing calculi in the urethra. Both preoperative and intraoperative investigation were performed and they were confirmed as iatrogenic injuries in the urinary tract during surgery. Depending on the condition of the complications, urethral anastomosis, unilateral nephrectomy, ureteroneocystostomy, colonic urinary diversion, ureterourethral anastomosis, cystostomy and suture of the defect region were performed separately in individual cases. Postoperative observation revealed 50% (3 cases) survival rate of the patients.

Emphysematous prostatitis with an abscess is an extremely rare but lethal infection, characterized by the accumulation of gas and purulent exudates. Due to its rarity, severity, and nonspecific presentation, prompt diagnosis and treatment are crucial to achieve favorable clinical outcomes. This report presents a 43-year-old male with hemodialysis-dependent end-stage kidney disease who reported a 3-day history of fever, urinary incontinence, dysuria, and dyspnea. His condition rapidly deteriorated due to septic shock caused by emphysematous prostatitis with an abscess. Following extensive treatment including long-term parenteral antibiotics, polymyxin B hemoperfusion filter treatment, abscess drainage via transurethral resection of the prostate, and suprapubic cystostomy, the patient successfully recovered.

신성 요붕증은 항이뇨호르몬의 정상적 분비에도 불구하고, 신장의 집합관의 항이뇨호르몬에 대한 반응이 저하되어 요농축능에 이상이 초래되는 질환이다. 특히 선천성 신성 요붕증은 대게 반성 열성 유전 양식을 따르는 유전 질환으로 매우 드물어 소아에서는 간헐적 보고만 있어 왔다. 어린 소아에서는 증상이 비특이적일 수 있고, 임상적 진단도 쉽지 않은데, 최근에는 항이뇨 호르몬 수용체 유전자의 돌연변이들이 확인되어 유전자 검사로 확진이 가능하게 되었다. 기존의 보고들은 선천성 신성 요붕증이 진단된 환아들에 대한 이뇨제나 비스테로이드성 항염증제 등을 포함한 치료가 이루어진 증례보고이었으나 이들의 치료 후 장기적 추적 결과 보고가 극히 드물며, 이들 약제에 의한 치료 효과는 낮은 것으로 알려져 있다. 저자들은 극심한 이뇨로 인한 이차적 요로기관의 변형이 초래되었던 8세 소아에서 환아와 엄마의 말초 혈액 유전자 분석 검사상 Xq28 염색체 부위의 AVPR2 유전자의 돌연변이가 확인되었고 hydrochlorothiazide, indomethacin 및 amiloride 병합 치료 후 배뇨량은 하루 12리터에서 4리터로 감소하였고, 성장 발육도 정상이었으나 더 이상의 호전이 없고 일상 생활에 불편함이 지속되어 보조적 방광루 형성술을 시행받은 후, 증상 호전 및 심리적 안정을 얻었던 심한 선천성 신성 요붕증 1례의 5년간의 추적 관찰 결과를 보고하는 바이다.

요도 결석은 매우 드믄 질환으로 보고된 증례가 많지 않으며, 대부분 요도 협착이나 요도 게실이 있는 남성에게서 대게 발생한다. 이에 우리는 20년 전 자동차 사고로 인한 척수 손상 후 하반신 마비가 발생한 42세 남성에서 발견된 거대 요로 결석 증례를 보고하고자 한다. 낮 동안에 다원적 증상을 가지고 있고, 고환 밑으로 종물이 만져지며 혈뇨 및 배뇨시 발생하는 통증을 보이면서 최근에는 소변이 전혀 나오지 않는 증상으로 응급실에 내원하여 비뇨기과 협진이 의뢰되었다. 고환 종물의 성상을 확인하기 위해 복부와 골반 컴퓨터 단층 촬영(CT)이 시행되었다. 검사 결과 종양은 관찰되지 않았다. 하지만, 요도 결석이 확인되었다. 우선적으로 요도성형술을 시행하여 방광루를 제거하였으며, 이후 요로 결석은 제거되었다. 2주 후에 요도조형술을 시행하였고 특이사항이 없음을 확인 후 소변줄을 제거하였다. 현재는 배뇨에 대한 특별한 문제는 없는 상태이다. 거대 요도 결석은 때때로 종양과 감별이 필요하며, 크기와 위치에 따라 치료법이 달라질 수 있어 좀 더 면밀한 검사가 필요하다.
