- Sclerotherapy of Hydroceles and Spermatoceles with Alcohol: Results and Effects on the Semen Analysis(2011) SHAN, Chen Jen; LUCON, Antonio Marmo; PAGANI, Rodrigo; SROUGI, MiguelPurpose: To evaluate the success rates of sclerotherapy of the tunica vaginalis with alcohol for the treatment of hydroceles and/or spermatoceles, as well as, evaluation of pain, formation of hematomas, infection and its effects in spermatogenesis Materials and Methods: A total of 69 patients, with offsprings and diagnosis of hydrocele and/or spermatocele, were treated during the period from April 2003 to June 2007. Semen analysis was obtained from patients who were able to provide us with samples. The sclerotherapy with alcohol at 99.5% was undertaken as outpatient procedure. Results: The average volume drained pre-sclerotherapy was 279.82 mL (27 to 1145). The median follow-up was 43 months (9 to 80). A total of 114 procedures were performed on 84 units, with an average of 1.35 procedures / unit and an overall success rate of 97.62%. Of the 69 patients, 7 (10.14%) reported minor pain immediately after the procedure, 3 (4.35%) moderate pain and 2 (2.89%) intense pain. Post-Sclerotherapy spermograms revealed reduction of the parameters regarding: concentration, motility and morphology up to 6 months post procedure, with return to normal parameters 12th months after procedure. Conclusions: Sclerotherapy of hydroceles and spermatoceles with 99.5% alcohol is an efficient procedure that can be perormed without difficulties, cost-effectiveness, with few side effects and which may be performed in patients who wish fertility.
- Protective Effect of N-acetylcysteine on Early Outcomes of Deceased Renal Transplantation(2011) DANILOVIC, A.; LUCON, A. M.; SROUGI, M.; SHIMIZU, M. H. M.; IANHEZ, L. E.; NAHAS, W. C.; SEGURO, A. C.We investigated the effects of the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on early outcomes of deceased donor renal transplantation. Between April 2005 and June 2008, adult primary graft recipients of deceased renal donors were assigned to treatment (n = 38) or control (n = 36) groups and evaluated for 90 days and one year after renal transplantation. The treatment group received NAC orally (600 mg twice daily) from day 0 to 7 postoperatively. Renal function was determined by serum creatinine, MDRD and Cockcroft-Gault estimated GFR (eGFR), delayed graft function (DGF) and dialysis free Kaplan-Meier estimate curve. Serum levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), were employed as markers of oxidative stress. The NAC group displayed a lower mean serum creatinine during the first 90 days (P = .026) and at 1 year after transplantation (P = .005). Furthermore, the NAC group showed a higher mean eGFR throughout the first 90 days and at 1 year. DGF was lower among the NAC group (P = .017) and these recipients required fewer days of dialysis (P = .012). Oxidative stress was significantly attenuated with NAC (P < .001). Our results suggested that NAC enhanced early outcomes of deceased donor renal transplantation by attenuating oxidative stress.
