Serial changes in proximal urethral function after transurethral balloon laser hyperthermia of the prostate (TUBAL-H) in a canine model.
We performed transurethral balloon laser hyperthermia of the prostate (TUBAL-H) in 6 mongrel dogs. To evaluate the changes in proximal urethral function after TUBAL-H, the urethral cross sectional area (CSA, cm2) and urethral pressure (Pu, cmH2O) were measured using a balloon probe that allows their simultaneous measurement, and the urethral compliance (Comp, cm3/cmH2O) was calculated from thes...
متن کاملLong-term effects of percutaneous laser balloon ablation from the canine coronary sinus.
BACKGROUND Radiofrequency catheter ablation of left-sided accessory pathways is becoming the first line of therapy for patients with symptomatic Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. Nevertheless, alternative ablation techniques merit development, at least as supplementary modalities for cases in which conventional ablation approaches may prove unsuccessful. We recently reported the short-term result...
متن کاملTransurethral resection of large prostates.
A total of 102 men (mean age 70) underwent transurethral resection of the prostate. The weight of the resected prostate ranged from 40 to 152 g. Two deaths occurred in patients aged 85 and 92 years, both of whom were generally unfit. The average postoperative stay in hospital was 8.3 days. The proportions of patients with incontinence, infection, and stricture were similar to those in other ser...

متن کاملBalloon-borne tunable diode laser absorption spectrometer
A balloon-borne tunable diode laser absorption spectrometer capable of in situ measurement of the concentrations of several stratospheric trace gases simultaneously in the same parcel of air is described. Laboratory tests show present detection limits of 1.5 ppbv for NO and 0.5 ppbv for N02 under stratospheric conditions. This instrumentwas flown in July 1983 to make the first tunable diode las...
