Applying for a Visa for Summer Academy Berlin 2014--Updated March 3
Please note that the visa you have to be studying in the U.S. (F-1) must be valid for at least three

Ang1-TURP Syndrome: a complication that can occur despite precautions S. BOUDARI, Y. ZARROUKI, O. CHOUKA, M. KHALLOUKI, MA. SAMKAOUI Service d'Anesthésie-Réanimation Hôpital Ibn-Tofail, CHU Mohammed VI, Marrakech Introduction: The TURP (transurethral resection of the prostate) syndrome is the most serious complication of transurethral resection of the prostate, it can be fatal. The incidence of TURP syndrome is decreasing, especially because of observance of requirements relating to the use of glycine, and utilization of technologic advances (laser techniques and bipolar circuitry). We report the case of a patient who presented a severe TURP syndrome following glycine irrigation despite the observance of all precautions of use. Case report: A 72-year-old man, followed for arterial hypertension under amlodipine, proposed for TURP for Benign prostatic hyperplasia revealed by lower urinary tract symptoms, and which the size of prostate is sonographically estimated 40 grams. The preanesthetic assessment has shown a patient with a good physical activity (more than 4 MET) and echocardiography, an abnormal relaxation pattern related to age and hypertension. Biological tests were correct, in particular Hb = 12.4 g/dL and natremia = 138 mEq/L. The procedure was performed under spinal anesthesia and consisted on a monopolar TURP. Irrigation of bladder made with a total of 6 L of 1.5% glycine with 1% ethanol at a pressure of up to 60 cm water. 35 minutes after the beginning of the procedure when the surgeon finalizing hemostasis, the patient became slightly disoriented, so the TURP syndrome was suspected, surgeon advised and irrigation stopped. Despite stopping of irrigation of glycine, evolution was marked by rapid clinical deterioration, with apparition in few minutes of a respiratory distress with crepitations on auscultation, hemodynamic instability (bradycardia, hypotension 70/40 mmHg) and then quickly occurrence of partial seizures of left upper limb. After this the patient was put under mechanical ventilation, correction of hyponatremia started by saline serum 3.3% and an internal jugular catheter was placed. Initial biological assessment showed : pH=7.31 PCO2 = 46.4 mmHg PO2 = 52.1 mmHg HCO3- = 23.5 mmol Na+ = 108.3 mmol/l K+ = 5.47 mmol/l After restoration of effective circulation, furosemide was given and the patient was transferred to surgical intensive care unit. The sedation was stopped and 2 hours later, extubation done in a patient respiratory and hemodynamically stable, persistent slightly confused. The hyponatraemia was slowly corrected to 132 mmol/l and the patient discharged day 3 from ICU with a good recovery especially neurological. Commentaries: In this clinical observation, the patient has presented a life threatening TURP syndrome, despite the small prostate size, the not elevated irrigation pressure and the short duration of resection. That illustrates how regional anesthesia is superior than general anesthesia, by allowing an early detection of any change in mental status, enabling an early recognition of the syndrome and avoiding thereby its expression by an intraoperative cardiac arrest. Under general anesthesia, the diagnosis of TURP Syndrome is difficult, generally delayed and the cardiovascular signs are prominent.
