Live Interactive Discussion on Exstrophy of the Bladder

admin — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 00:28:13 +0000

On Wednesday, November 7, 2007 at 3:00 p.m. EST, Children’s Hospital Boston’s Center for Bladder Exstrophy Care & Support team will host a live interactive discussion on exstrophy of the bladder, a complex combination of disorders that occurs during fetal development. Diagnosis, surgical treatment, and lifelong management will be discussed in addition to excerpts of a complete repair procedure, taped earlier this year. Also, a family from the support group will share their perspective on having a child with exstrophy of the bladder. This 60-minute Webcast on OR-Live.com is part of Children’s ongoing effort to bring advanced care and technology to specialists and referring physicians around the world, and to educate patients and families about the latest and most innovative medical treatments available.
Bladder exstrophy is a rare, complex congenital anomaly that involves the urinary, reproductive and intestinal tracts, as well as the musculoskeletal system. Approximately 400 new cases of bladder exstrophy are diagnosed each year in the United States, and males are affected 1.5 to 2.3 times more often than females. With bladder exstrophy, the abdominal wall and underlying structures do not properly fuse in utero, when the baby is developing, and the infant is born with the bladder exposed inside-out on the outside of the body. Because the bladder and other structures are exposed, urine constantly trickles onto the skin causing local irritation. ociated conditions can include a widened pubic bone, abnormally-shaped and weakened abdominal muscles, and a shorter than average urethra and vagina or penis. The disorder may occur in varying degrees from mild to severe. It is most often diagnosed by fetal ultrasound, but can be diagnosed at birth.

U 032 Sphinkter OP / artificial urethra sphincter implant

admin — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 17:52:05 +0000

Der Musculus urethralis (Harnröhrenmuskel) ist ein quergestreifter Muskel an der Harnröhre (Urethra). Der sogenannte künstliche Schließmuskel (artifizieller Sphinkter) ist ein Kunststoffsystem, welches aus 3 Komponenten besteht.
1. dem Flüssigkeitsreservoir
2. der Pumpe
3. der Harnröhrendruckmanschette

Das Reservoir ist ein Silikonballon, welcher mit einer Flüssigkeit gefüllt wird. Er wird in die Bauchhöhle eingepflanzt. Die Pumpe wird in den Hodensack operiert und mit Schlauchverbindungen an das Reservoir und die Druckmanschette angeschlossen. Die Harnröhrendruckmanschette sieht aus wie eine miniaturisierte Blutdruck- manschette, sie kann über einen Schlauch mit Hilfe der Pumpe mit Flüssigkeit aus dem Reservoir gefüllt werden und drückt so die Harnröhre ab. Die Druckmanschette wird um die hintere Harnröhre gelegt, die zu diesem Zwecke freipräpariert wird.Wenn alle Schlauchverbindungen hergestellt sind, wird die Haut wieder verschlossen, sodass alle Teile im Körper versenkt sind. Die beiden Schnitte der Operation liegen 1 x in der Leiste und der 2. im Bereiche des Damms, also zwischen Hodensack und Anus.

An artificial sphincter is used when your urinary sphincter stops working. The artificial sphincter is made up of three parts: a cuff, a balloon, and a pump. The cuff is shaped like a donut and fits around your urethra below the bladder
neck. The cuff is filled with fluid. It puts just enough pressure on the urethra to allow your bladder to hold your urine. The balloon holds the fluid that fills the cuff. The balloon is about the size of a ping-pong ball and is
placed in your body behind your pubic bone. The pump is implanted in your scrotum. You squeeze it to empty the fluid from the cuff into the balloon. This allows the urethra to open so you can urinate.

Bladder Neck Dissection Demonstrated by Dr. Samadi, http://www.RoboticOncology.com

admin — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 04:26:15 +0000

Dr. Samadi’s robotic prostatectomy involves says opening up the bladder neck early during the procedure. It is important for Dr. Samadi to view the bladder neck as soon as possible to stay away from lateral tissues. Dr. Samadi uses the latest version of the da Vinci robot, which gives him a fourth arm with which to work. The bladder neck dissection separates the prostate from the bladder during prostate removal surgery. Other therapies are available to treat prostate cancer; for example, open prostate surgery, HiFu, cryotherapy, prostate brachytherapy, radiation, seed implants, watchful waiting, cyber knife, laparoscopic prostatectomy, and hormone therapy. However, robotic radical prostatectomy is the preferred treatment when indicated. For additional information about Dr. Samadis robotic prostate cancer treatment cure, please visit his website, http://www.RoboticOncology.com, or contact him directly at phone, 1-888-Robot10 (1-888-762-6810).
