[Prevention of incontinence after radical prostatectomy].
OBJECTIVE: To discuss the effect of urine control after radical retropubic prostatectomy by preserve the membranous part of sphincter urethrae and the neurovascular bundle, or to rebuild the bladder neck. METHODS: The radical retropubic prostatectomy was performed on a total of 32 cases of prostate cancer. We preserve the membranous part of sphincter urethrae and the neurovascular bundle lateral to the prostate. We evaginate the posterior wall of the bladder adequately and make an additional folding stitch to rebuild the bladder neck. RESULTS: The follow up is of 6-72 months. All patients could void without difficulty, no tumor recurrence and only 2 cases occurred slight incontinence. Other 30 cases regained the ability of controlling their urinations within 6 months. CONCLUSIONS: The incontinence after radical retropubic prostatectomy could be reduced by the method of preserving the membranous part of sphincter urethrae and preserving the neurovascular bundle lateral to the prostate in operation. It could also be avoided by evaginate the posterior wall of the bladder adequately and make an additional folding stitch to the bladder neck.

[Primary pigmented nodular adrenocortical disease report of 5 cases].
OBJECTIVE: To study the pathology, diagnostic and therapeutic method of primary pigmented nodular adrenocortical disease (PPNAD). METHODS: The data of 5 cases of PPNAD were analyzed retrospectively. Among the 5 cases, 2 were male and 3 were female. The range of age was from 12 to 53 years. All the 5 cases had symptoms of Cushing syndrome. The diagnose depended on the results of endocrine exams, ultrasound, CT, MR and pathological reports. All patients received operation of unilateral adrenalectomy. The therapeutic effects were determined by post-operative results, which concluded clinical symptoms and endocrine exams. RESULTS: The follow-up time was from 4 months to 3 years. All patients' symptoms of Cushing syndrome were relieved in 6 months after operation. The endocrine exam was normal in one case and obvious improved in the other four cases. Up to now, one patient drop out of the follow-up, the other 4 cases had no evidence of recurrence. CONCLUSION: PPNAD is a rare type of Cushing syndrome. Diagnose depends on endocrine exams and pathological results. Operation is the effective method for the disease.

[Hemodynamometry of erectile dysfunction].
OBJECTIVE: To study the clinical causes of the erectile dysfunction (ED). METHODS: One hundred and thirty cases of ED were examined by hemonamometry and cavernosography with vasodilating agent. The data about penile brachial index, intracavernous pressure, maintenance flow rate, and pressure loss change were obtained and the status of the penile veins was detected. RESULTS: Among 130 patients with ED, 39 had venous leakage including penile arterial insufficiency simultaneous venous leakage in 15 patients. Various leakage sites were observed by using cavernosography. Twenty-eight patients showed deep dorsal veins only and the remaining crural veins. CONCLUSION: Hemodynamometry is effective to diagnose the cause of ED.
