ectopic ureterocele long term results of open surgical therapy in 54 patients
The Journal of Urology, 2007Co-Authors: Aida Beganovic, Aart J Klijn, Pieter Dik, Tom P V M De JongAbstract:Purpose: We assessed the long-term results of total reconstructive Bladder Surgery as initial treatment of ectopic ureteroceles.Materials and Methods: Long-term followup was evaluated in 54 children treated for ectopic ureteroceles with total upper and lower urinary tract reconstructive Surgery between 1988 and 2003, with special focus on the primary outcome factors continence and urinary tract infections.Results: Patient age at Surgery was 0 to 8.8 years old (median 1.0), including 34 patients younger than 1 year. Followup was 2.3 to 15.6 years (median 9.6). Of the patients 94% became continent. During the last 2 years 17% of the patients experienced 1 or 2 uncomplicated episodes of urinary tract infection. One of the patients with incontinence received chemoprophylaxis due to frequent urinary tract infections. Secondary endoscopic procedures were necessary in 10 patients due to persistent reflux, and in 7 patients due to obstructive voiding. Reflux was present preoperatively in 33 patients, and low grad...

ectopic ureterocele results of open surgical therapy in 40 patients
The Journal of Urology, 2000Co-Authors: Tom P V M De Jong, Pieter Dik, Aart J Klijn, Cuno S P M Uiterwaal, Jan D Van GoolAbstract:Purpose: The treatment of ectopic ureterocele is controversial. In addition to debate on optimal therapy, discussion exists on whether there is further risk of deteriorating Bladder function after extensive Bladder Surgery during the first year of life, which is a reason to postpone Surgery. In a prospective nonrandomized trial we treated 40 patients regardless of age who had ectopic ureterocele with complete surgical reconstruction of the lower urinary tract and upper pole resection of poorly functioning upper pole moieties at referral. Excluded from study were 3 patients with only 1 affected renal moiety initially.Materials and Methods: We treated 31 female and 9 male patients 0 to 8.8 years old (mean age 2.17) at Surgery for ectopic ureterocele extending into the Bladder neck and urethra, including 19 younger than 1 year. Primary ureterocele excision was performed in 37 cases with reconstruction of the urethra, Bladder neck and trigone, and ureteral reimplantation. Because of small ureterocele size, th...

transcutaneous electrical stimulation of somatic afferent nerves in the foot relieved symptoms related to postoperative Bladder spasms
BMC Urology, 2017Co-Authors: Chanjuan Zhang, Zhiying Xiao, Xiulin Zhang, Liqiang Guo, Wendong Sun, Changfeng Tai, Zhaoqun Jiang, Yuqiang LiuAbstract:Bladder spasm is a common side effect of urological Surgery. Main treatment modalities include opioids or anticholinergic medication; however, Bladder spasms still occur even after these interventions. Recent studies indicate that transcutaneous stimulation of the foot can result in 50% increase in Bladder capacity in healthy adults, and inhibit Bladder detrusor overactivity in spinal cord injured patients. In this study, we examined the effects of transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the foot on Bladder spasms related symptoms. Sixty-six male patients who underwent prostate or Bladder surgeries due to benign prostatic hyperplasia or Bladder diseases were randomly divided into two groups: the control group (n = 36) and the treatment group (n = 30). The control group received the routine postoperative care. The treatment group received daily transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the foot during 3 days after Surgery; each time lasted for 60 min. All patients were evaluated by the Visual Analogue Scale for pain sensation, frequency of Bladder spasm episodes, and a total score of Bladder spasms symptoms. In the control group, the patients with Bladder Surgery had a higher Visual Analogue Scale score than patients with prostate Surgery (P = 0.024). In both treatment and control groups, the Visual Analogue Scale score, spasm frequency, and total score of Bladder spasm symptoms decreased from day 1 to day 3 (P <0.001). The Visual Analogue Scale score at day 2, total score of Bladder spasm symptoms at day 2 and day 3 were significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group (P <0.05). These results provided preliminary evidence suggesting beneficial effects of stimulating somatic afferent nerves in the foot on postoperative Bladder spasms. The study was registered with Chinese Clinical Trial Registry on June 13 2016 ( http://www.chictr.org.cn/ ) (Identifier: ChiCTR-INR-16008635)
