Harmful gases including carcinogens produced during transurethral resection of the prostate and vaporization

摘要: Objective:  To determine the chemical composition of surgical smoke produced during transurethral resection prostate (TURP) and vaporization. Methods:  A total 12 samples were collected from a continuous irrigation suction drainage system to Tenax absorber at 0.05 L/min flow rate TURP vaporization. The gases quantitatively qualitatively analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) equipped with purge trap sample injector. Results:  main constituents vaporization include propylene, allene, isobutylene, 1,3-butadiene, vinyl acetylene, mecaptomethane, ethyl diacetylene, 1-pentene, EtOH, piperylene, propenylacetylene, 1,4-pentadiene, cyclopentadiene, acrylnitrile butyrolactone. Three are very toxic carcinogenic (1,3-butadiene, acetylene acrylonitrile). amount (mean ± standard deviation) components in 45 L room air mixture as follows: 0.80 ± 0.52 mg; 212.85 ± 75.65 mg; 0.93 ± 0.34 mg; 0.09 ± 0.05 mg; 6.75 ± 1.62 mg; 0.06 ± 0.02 mg; acrylonitrile, 1.62 ± 1.19 mg. Conclusions:  generated carcinogens Therefore, higher quality filter masks, evacuation devices and/or filters should be developed for safety operating personnel patients
