[Early results of endoscopic treatment of vesico-ureteral reflux in children].

Endoscopic treatment of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is based on transurethral injection of Teflon paste or collagen gel into the submucosa of the bladder wall beneath the distal ureter, resulting in support of the intramural part. This endoscopic procedure was performed in 75 children with VUR of varying severity. Altogether 111 ureters were treated, 94 with injections of Teflon paste and 17 with collagen gel. Improvement of VUR in the early postoperative period was achieved in 91.5% of the ureters treated with Teflon and in 82.4% of the ureters treated with collagen. No complications were observed. Endoscopic treatment of VUR seems to be an worthwhile alternative to open surgery. However, since long-term follow-up has not been completed, the efficacy of the method cannot yet be finally assessed.

Analysis of urinary tract infections in patients undergoing prostatectomy.

Analysis is presented of 260 patients on whom in the years 1974--1976 an operation for adenoma removal was performed. 115 patients (44.2%) had a permanently placed catheter or were repeatedly catheterized before operation, and 145 (55.8%) were able to urinate without any need for catheterization. In the group of preoperatively catheterized patients infection of the urinary system was demonstrated in 84 cases, which amounts to 75%. Among patients not catheterized before operation, infection already existed in 29 cases (20%). Operation by Millin's method was carried out in 181 patients; non-infected urine was postoperatively found in 40 cases, which amounts to 22.3%. 79 patients were operated on by the transvesical method; in this group non-infected urine was found in four cases, i.e. 5.1%. Calculated x2 indicated a significant connection between the investigated items, consisting in a much more frequent occurrence of urinary system infection in patients operated on by the transvesical method. The duration of catheter reposition in the urinary bladder after prostatectomy considerably influences the number of postoperative infections of the urinary system.

Tumours of the urinary bladder accidentally diagnosed during prostatectomy.

By analysing 1472 prostatectomies, the authors have stated a coexistence of tumour of the bladder in 31 cases (2.11%). In 11 patients (0.75%) the tumours were accidentally diagnosed, as late as during the operation itself. Eight patients were operated transvesically. The tumour was diagnosed immediately after opening the bladder. The tumour was removed first and then the adenoma. Three patients were operated on according to Millin's method, their tumours having been detected only after enucleation of adenoma of the prostate. In five cases cancer of the bladder was diagnosed and in six papillary tumour of the bladder was found. The bladder cancers were treated by partial excision of the bladder or by deep electrocoagulation. The authors maintain that the small percentage of accidentally diagnosed tumours is no indication for a routine performance of cystoscopy in every case of adenoma of the prostate before intended prostatectomy.

[Evaluation of the effectiveness of prazosin in conservative treatment of benign prostatic hypertrophy].

Prazosin--a selective blocker of alpha 1-adrenergic receptors--was administered to 30 patients with benign prostatic hypertrophy. Twenty four patients (80%) reported an improvement in voiding and observed more potent urinary stream after the treatment. Average and maximum flow rates increased in 18 patients (60%). Therapy had to be discontinued in 2 patients because of the adverse reactions (hypotension and syncope in one and exacerbation of the coronary disease symptoms in another patient).
