To discover the possible factor of the iatrogenic fibroepithelial polyps (FEPs).A retrospective chart review of 28 pediatric patients who have undergone pyeloplasties for ureteropelvic junction obstruction with pathologically proven FEPs was performed from January 2009 to June 2016 at our hospital. Among them, 6 patients without apparent FEPs at the time of the first pyeloplasty were found to have...
The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of transpubic access using a pedicle flap from the labia minora for urethral reconstruction in young girls with urethrovaginal fistula secondary to pelvic fracture. Between January 2011 and January 2016, 4 cases of traumatic urethrovaginal fistula in young girls were treated using a pedicle flap from the labia minora. The mean follow-up was 27 months. All patients...
We report 2 successful treatment cases of renal artery occlusion (RAO) related to multiple trauma. A 4-year-old boy was diagnosed with right RAO and liver laceration after a traffic accident. Surgical thrombectomy and revascularization were performed, but the lacerated liver was not sutured. The lacerated liver was surgically repaired 6 days post operation because of delayed bleeding. Thirteen percent...
To evaluate changes in functional and morphological outcomes in children with prenatally diagnosed Society of Fetal Urology (SFU) grades 3-4 ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) who underwent pyeloplasty at different ages. We also examined the effect of surgical wait time on recovery of renal function.All patients (aged 0-12 months) with prenatally diagnosed SFU grades 3-4 UPJO who underwent...
We present a novel noncyctoscopic procedure in removing retained ureteral stents that requires minimal sedation and significantly reduces operation time and costs compared to the cystoscopy-based procedure.We used a simple self-made device, which was made of an Fr5 feeding tube and a monofilament suture to remove the stents. Although the success rate is very high with this new procedure, it is important...
To compare the treatment efficacy of Dornier Compact S and a Chinese electromagnetic shock wave lithotripter (Huikang MZ-SWL-V) in a large series. We retrospectively reviewed the outcome of shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) in 13,954 consecutive patients with upper urinary tract stones from December 1996 to December 2008 with Dornier Compact S (9124 cases) and Huikang MZ-SWL-V (4830 cases). An intramuscular...
