METHODSThe hemostatic abilities of the two methods were analyzed retrospectively in all six gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection cases. The treated vessel diameter, compressed vessel frequency, and bleeding frequency after cutting the vessels were noted by the recorded videos. The coagulation mechanism of the two power settings was evaluated using the data recording program and histological examination on macro- and microscopic levels in the ex vivo experiments using porcine tissues. RESULTSF1-10 method showed a significantly better hemostatic ability for vessels ≥ 2 mm in diameter and a trend of overall better coagulation effect, evaluated by the bleeding rate after cutting the vessels. F1-10 method could sustain electrical current longer and effectively coagulate the tissue wider and deeper than the S method in the porcine model. CONCLUSIONF1-10 method is suggested to achieve a stronger hemostatic effect than the S method in clinical procedures and ex vivo models.展开更多

From February 2011 to July 2012, a prospective nonrandomized study was performed. One-hundred one patients underwent PKEP, and 110 underwent PVP. No severe intraoperative complications were recorded, and none of the patients in either group required a blood transfusion. Shorter catheterization time （38.14 ± 23.64 h vs 72.54 ± 28.38 h, P 〈 0.001） and hospitalization （2.32 ± 1.25 days vs 4.07±1.23 days, P 〈 0.001） were recorded in the PVP group. At 12-month postoperatively, the PKEP group had a maintained and statistically improvement in International Prostate Symptom Score （IPSS） （4.07 ±2.07 vs 5.00 ±2.10; P〈 0.001）, quality of life （QoL） （1.08 ± 0.72 vs 1.35 ± 0.72; P= 0.007）, maximal urinary flow rate （Qmax） （24.75±5.87 ml s^-1 vs 22.03 ±5.04 ml s^-1; P 〈 0.001）, postvoid residual urine volume （PVR） （14,29 ± 6,97 ml vs 17.00±6.11 ml; P = 0,001）, and prostate-specific antigen （PSA） value （0.78 ±0.57 ng ml^-1 vs 1.27 ±1.07 ng ml^-1; P 〈 0.001）. Both PKEP and PVP relieve low urinary tract symptoms （LUTS） due to BPH with low complication rates. PKEP can completely remove prostatic adenoma while the total amount of tissue removed by PVP is less than that can be removed by PKER Based on our study of the follow-up, PKEP provides better postoperative outcomes than PVP.展开更多

METHODS: A total of 82 patients underwent TVP procedures with the oval electrode. The newly designed oval-shaped electrode can work with a High Frequency Electrosurgery Unit. Prostate gland tissue was vaporized through an Fr 24 percutaneous nephroscope transurethrally. The operation procedure was similar to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or transurethral laser prostatectomy (TULP). Power setting ranged from 240 W to 320 W. Local vaporization temperature reached 120 degrees C. RESULTS: Urination was recovered in all 82 patients after TVP. Mean post-treatment International Prostate Symptom Score (I-PSS) reduced from 27.10 to 5.05; mean bladder residual urine volume dropped from 147.71 ml to 33.2 ml; and mean urine flow rate (MFR) increased from 4.45 ml/s to 14.57 ml/s (P展开更多
