Background: There is no consensus on whether intravenous rehydration must be added after preoperative phenoxybenzamine (PXB) administration for pheochromocytoma. The aim of this study is to investigate whether abandonment of intravenous volume expansion after PXB administration is associated with intraoperative hemodynamic instability.
Methods: 83 Patients with pheochromocytoma received surgical treatment in the Department of Urology, Handan First Hospital, between October 2014 and July 2022.
Article Synopsis
- Flexible ureteroscopic incision and drainage is a new surgical method for treating parapelvic cysts, with an innovative ultrasound-guided technique enhancing cyst localization during surgery.
- A study reviewed 17 cases treated with this method, comparing traditional and ultrasound-guided techniques concerning surgical time, complications, and outcomes.
- Results showed that the ultrasound-guided approach was effective in identifying cyst walls and resulted in longer operative and search times, but without serious complications or recurrences after 12 months of follow-up; however, the study's small sample size indicates a need for further research.
