The aim of this study was to evaluate the fluctuation of haemoglobin value after performing percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in the treatment of kidney stones. We conducted a retrospective study and we included 327 patients who underwent PCNL for renal lithiasis. We evaluated the risk factors for bleeding: location of stones, complexity of lithiasis, length of postoperative hospitalization days, variation of post-operative laboratory constants (haemoglobin, haematocrit). Patients were divided into two age groups: group A (patients under 70 years old) and group B (patients over 70 years). Gender distribution was: 171 female and 156 male. In most of the cases, the stones were located in the renal pelvis (133 cases), multiple lithiasis (105 cases) and staghorn stones (48 cases). There was no statistical difference between the patient�s groups concerning the decrease of post-operative Hgb concentration and complexity of the litiasis, p = 0.10. The average length of post-operative hospitalisation was 3.91 +/- 1.78 SD days in patients who did not have significant hemorrhage and 6.40 +/- 2.35 SD days in patients with intra- and post-operative haemorrhage. The postoperative Hgb levels correlated with post-operative days of hospitalization in elderly patients (rr = -0.44, p = 0.0001). Stone complexity, the size, number or localization of the stones, were not risk factors for the decrease of haemoglobin level after PCNL. Decreased postoperative haemoglobin values can led to increased number of hospitalization days.

Background and Objectives: Skin cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed malignancies. The main goal of the therapeutic management is total excision with the prevention of recurrence and metastasis. The quality of life of the patients with skin cancer is affected by the morbidity risk, surgery, and cosmetic or functional aspects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of life of patients with skin cancer prior to and post surgical intervention. Material and methods: We performed a prospective study on 247 patients with skin tumors. Quality of life was evaluated through an initial questionnaire that was given to all consenting patients. This was used to determine patients' mobility, selfcare, normal activities, pain, and despair, using a five-point Likert scale. The general autoperceived health state was also recorded using a 100-point scale. The study included the responses of all patients at hospital admission, after one month of surgery, and after one year of surgery. Results: In patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), the general health state indicator statistically significantly decreased one month after surgery and increased at one-year follow-up. In malignant melanoma (MM) patients, mobility, selfcare, normal activities, and discomfort presented a decrease in values one year after surgery, compared to the values registered at hospital admission. In patients with basal cell carcinoma (BCC), all indicators of quality of life presented an impaired value one year after surgery, after a decreasing trend. The general health state indicator statistically significantly increased one month after surgery and after one year. Conclusions: Surgery is one of the main steps in treating skin cancer. It has a great impact on patients' quality of life because of pain andthe effect on mobility and normal activities. Skin cancers influence the quality of life of patients both psychologicallyand physically.
