외요도구를 통한 Foley catheter의 유치는 거의 대부분의 경뇨도적 내시경 수술 후 필수적으로 행하는 술기이다. 그러나 가끔, 특히 심한 요도손상을 입힌 경우나 요도에 false tract가 생긴 때에는 통상의 방법으로 Foley catheter의 외요도구를 통한 방광내로의 유치가 곤란하며 또한 심한 손상을 초래할 위험이 많다. 저자는 guide wire를 이용한 새롭고 안전한 요도 catheter의 유치방법을 고안하여 1986년 9월부터 1988년 6월 까지 요도협착으로 입원하여 internal urethrotomy를 받은 후 Foley catheter의 유치가 곤란하였던 7명의 환자 및 경뇨도전립선절제술후 Foley catheter의 삽입이 곤란하였던 3명의 환자에게 각각 시행하여 전례에서 성공하였다.

The Purpose of this study is for clinical nurses to be aware of the significance of prevention against bacteriuria caused form foley catheterization, through probing variables related to the occurrence of bacteriuria which appears as the most frequent occurring infection, and try to lower bacteriuria by applying to nursing care at the clinical. For this study 46 patients with catheterization and the closed drainage system were sampled and investigated from among patients at Intensive Care Unit in Two hospitals affiliated to K University in Seoul. Those patients sampled had not shown bacteriuria before foley catheterization. The research design is to explore the effectiveness of prevention against bacteriuria in accordance with bladder irrigation and no bladder irrigation. Especially, the frequency of occurrence of bacteriuria examined so as to compare the effectiveness of bladder irrigation depending on the type of foley catheter between 2-lumen foley catheter and 3-lumen foley catheter. The results Were as follows. 1. The occurrence of bacteriuria in patient with bladder irrigation was 21.7%, while in patient without bladder irrigation 26.1%. 2. The occurrence of bacteriuria in patient without bladder irrigation according to duration of Indwelling catheter, was 4.3% after 48 h, 8.7％ after 72 h and 21.7% after 96 h. 3. In case of 2-lumen foley catheter the occurrence of bacteriuria in patient with bladder irrigation was 0% after 72 h, and 4.35% after 96 h. In case of 3-lumen foley catheter, the occurrence of bacteriuria in patient with bladder irrigation was 13% after 48 h, 8.7% after 72 h and 4.3% after 96 h. 4. The occurrence of bacteriuria according to duration of catheterization was 8.7% after 48 h, 8.7% after 72 h and 15.2% after 96 h. In sex, female was 35% and male 15.4%. 5. The occurrence of bacteriuria according to mental state was 15% in clear state, while 29.6% in mental disorder. 6.

Purpose: Nostril stenosis is an uncommon deformity that develops as a consequence of smallpox, chickenpox, tuberculosis, syphilis, congenital malformations etc. There have been several studies on the surgical techniques to treat it. However, it is difficult to maintain the result for a long time. The goal of this study is to evaluate the use of Wplasty, perialar flap as an operative techniques and expansion exercise using Foley catheter as a method to keep the patency of nostril. Methods: This is a retrospective review of the senior surgeon's (Y.L.) patients who underwent W-plasty and a perialar flap. Patients treated from 2005 to 2009 were reviewed and the postoperative results were evaluated. Average patient age was 24 years, ranged from 1 to 61 years, average follow-up period was 27.5 months, ranged from 3 to 77 months. The mild deformity was released with an incision and expansion by the ballooning of a Foley catheter and corrected by W-plasty only. However, a severe deformity required an additional procedure including perialar flap transposition. During the postoperative period, the patients maintained a nasal stent and exercise using a Foley catheter to prevent recurrence. Results: Five cases of nostril stenosis in four patients were treated using this technique. One case was corrected with W-plasty only, but four cases were more severe and were corrected with W-plasty and a perialar flap. There were no perioperative complications. The patients were satisfied with the results and retained a good shape during the follow-up periods. Conclusion: Nostril stenosis can be corrected with W-plasty and a perialar flap. A perialar flap is added if W-plasty is unable to correct the deformity. A postoperative nasal stent and expansion with a Foley catheter can help in preventing recurrences.

Purpose: Many surgical methods for reconstruction of orbital floor fracture have been reported, which include subciliary approach, transconjunctival approach, transantral and transnasal endoscopic approach, etc. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate a surgical technique and analyze the results of transnasal endoscopic approach with Foley catheter ballooning without implantation of artificial surgical material through subciliary approach. Methods: Between February 2007 and November 2010, 29 orbital floor fracture patients, who had no herniated muscles through bone fragments, were treated through transnasal endoscopic approach with Foley catheter ballooning. Under the endoscopic view, the operator identified the opening of maxillary sinus. After widening of the opening using forceps, the operator reduced the fragmented bone with curved suction tip. Thereafter, 18-Fr Foley catheter was inserted. Four weeks after the operation, the catheter was removed. Results: Preoperatively, 6 patients had diplopias, 4 patients had limitations of extraocular motions and 3 patients had enophthalmos. After removal of the Foley catheter 4 weeks after the operation, 2 patients had diplopias, 1 patient had a limitation of extraocular motion, 1 patient has an enophthalmos and 1 patient had numbness on the cheek. These symptoms were resolved about 6 months after the surgery. Conclusion: The operative technique of Foley catheter ballooning through transnasal endoscopic approach without implantation of the artificial surgical material through subciliary approach can be considered one of the appropriate techniques for orbital floor fracture.

Purpose The prevalence of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) varies from 5% to 8.2%, and the risk of infection increases by 5% to 7% per day of primary indwelling. We investigated whether a novel biofilm inhibitory mechanism using an inhibitory silicone urethral catheter (a coated Foley catheter) can reduce CAUTIs compared to conventional non-coated Foley catheters. Materials and Methods This study prospectively analyzed the difference in the incidence of CAUTIs in patients who underwent radical cystectomy with an orthotopic neobladder for bladder cancer and received a coated or conventional non-coated catheter. Additionally, differences in bacterial colonization between the groups were analyzed using a catheter-tip bacterial culture test. Results Eighty-five patients were randomized into the "coated Foley catheter" group (abbreviated as "case" group; 41 patients) and a control group (44 patients). The two groups were identical except for their surgical history. The incidence of CAUTIs 2 weeks after radical cystectomy was 21.95% (case) and 27.27% (control), with no significant difference between the two groups. However, when the catheter was removed 2 weeks after surgery, the catheter tip culture test revealed significant bacterial colonies in 25 (60.98%) and 38 (86.36%) patients in the case and control group, respectively. No catheter-related postoperative side effects were observed in either group. Conclusions The incidence of CAUTIs in the two groups did not differ according to the catheter material. However, the catheter bacterial culture test showed that bacterial colonization was significantly suppressed on the Bi-Fi Free technology catheter, which comparatively inhibited biofilm formation.

Bleeding, is one of the most common postoperative complications after palatoplasty in patients with cleft palate. The purpose of this article is to present our experience using a Foley catheter balloon for perioperative palatoplasty bleeding management. A retrospective data analysis was performed for all cases of palatoplasty performed by the author from 1999 to 2012 that experienced postoperative hemorrhage. These patients were managed by utilizing posterior nasal compression with a Foley catheter balloon for the period 2006 to 2012. We have compared two methods (we use before 2006 the reoperative method) with regards to the later development of palatal fistulae and cases with reoperative hemostasis. The study found no statistically significant differences between the conventional and proposed method in relation to the development of palatal fistulae (P=0.7). These findings suggest that nasal packing using a Foley balloon is a safe and effective method for postoperative bleeding control after palatoplasty in patients with cleft palate.
