Urology case study


DISCHARGE SUMMARY

DIAGNOSES
1. Radiation cystitis.
2. Carcinoma of prostate, stage D.
3. Left inguinal hernia.

OPERATIONS PERFORMED
Ileal conduit.  Left inguinal hernia repair.

HISTORY
This 60-year-old male with advanced carcinoma of the prostate, who had radiation therapy for this, was found to have severe contraction of the bladder from the radiation cystitis.  The patient has been incapacitated by this.  Also has had a painful left inguinal hernia.

After preop evaluation, patient was brought to surgery where an ileal conduit and left inguinal hernia repair were performed.  The patient tolerated the procedure well.  Estimated blood loss:  750 cc for the total procedure.

The patient was observed in intensive care for 2 days and then transferred to surgical floor.  The patient received 1 unit of packed cell blood replacement on the second postop day.  The patient had slight Jackson-Pratt drainage, and bowel sounds and flatus were noted.  The patient was fed, tolerated this well.  Foley catheter was removed.  Bladder was left intact, not removed; it was very tiny and scarred in.

Patient continued to improve over the next couple of days and was discharged home on Home Health followup.

FOOTNOTE
Line 9.  The slang term CA was changed to carcinoma.
Line 23.  Was performed was changed to were performed for subject-verb agreement (conduit and ... repair were).
Line 31.  And was deleted to shorten the run-on sentence.
Line 36.  Alternative:  Home Health (an organization) as opposed to home health (a service).  Since it is not clear which is meant, either is acceptable.
