To determine whether the severity of haematuria (microscopic or gross) at diagnosis influences disease stage presentation in patients diagnosed with bladder cancer.We conducted a multi-institutional observational cohort study who were newly cancer between August 1999 and May 2012. We reviewed degree haematuria, demographic information, clinical social history, imaging, pathology. The association incident tumour grade was evaluated using logistic regression.Patients presented gross (GH; 1...
Nomograms for predicting the risk of prostate cancer developed using other populations may introduce sizable bias when applied to a Chinese cohort.In present study, we sought develop nomogram probability positive initial biopsy in population.A total 535 men who underwent prostatic detection past decade with complete data were included.Stepwise logistic regression was used determine independent predictors biopsy.Age, prostate-specific antigen (PSA), volume (PV), digital rectal examination...
Abstract BACKGROUND: A diagnosis of prostate cancer is not often predictive death from because competing causes mortality. Identification the risk and all using information available at time baseline prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) measurement appears to be particularly pertinent. METHODS: The Duke Prostate Center database was used identify men who had their PSA level measured over past 20 years. Cox proportional hazards model assess whether PSA, race, age could predict after measurement....
Urothelial carcinoma (UC) is a common cancer affecting many patients in the United States. Nephroureterectomy remains gold standard for treatment of high grade upper tract disease or low tumors that are not amenable to endoscopic management. Recent reports have shown decrease UC recurrence who underwent nephroureterectomy and had Mitomycin C (MMC) instilled into bladder at time catheter removal. At our institution instillation intravesical MMC has been more than 10 years. Given recent data,...
Studies show that initial prostate specific antigen higher than the median in young men predicts a subsequent risk of cancer. To our knowledge this relationship has not been studied patients stratified by race.A cohort 3,530 black and 6,118 white 50 years or younger with 4 ng/ml less at first screening was retrieved from center database institution. Patients were divided into groups based on 0.1 to 0.6, 0.7 1.4, 1.5 2.4 2.5 4.0 ng/ml. Univariate age adjusted multivariate logistic regression...
Chinese men should have a higher prostate-specific antigen (PSA) "gray zone" than the traditional value of 2.5-10.0 ng ml-1 since incidence prostate cancer (PCa) in is relative low. We hypothesized that PSA density (PSAD) could improve rate PCa detection with zone." A total 461 between 2.5 and 20.0 , who had undergone prostatic biopsy at two centers were included analysis. The then further divided into groups 10.1-20.0 . Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate...
Prostate volume (PV) has been shown to be associated with prostate cancer (PCa) detection rates in men a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) the 'grey zone' (2.0-10.0ng ml 21 ).However, PSA Asian should higher because incidence of PCa is relatively low.Therefore, we evaluated association between PV and PSAs measuring 10-50 ng .Men who underwent 13-core prostatic biopsy documentation participated study.A multivariate stepwise regression was used evaluate whether at time could predict risk PCa.The...
Venous tumor thrombus occurs in 5-10% of patients with renal cell carcinoma. Surgical excision offers the best chance for survival, but is technically difficult. Risk pulmonary embolism from venous or high, especially tumors located higher inferior vena cava. Cardiopulmonary bypass may be used when a extends above diaphragm, carries significant risk. We present an 86-year-old woman 7 cm mass extending into cava just below confluence hepatic vessels. Prior to surgery she was found have...
Basal cell carcinoma of the penis is an extremely rare entity, accounting for less than 0.03% all basal carcinomas. Fortunately, wide local excision such lesions generally curative. Fewer 25 cases have been reported in literature describing penile carcinoma. Here we report a case cured with excision.
We determined the predictive power of tumor percent involvement on prostate specific antigen recurrence in patients when stratified by weight.Data 3,057 who underwent radical prostatectomy between 1988 and 2008 was retrieved from our institutional cancer database. Patients with data involvement, volume were included analysis. divided into 3 groups based less than 35, 35 to 45 greater cc. The variables age at surgery, race, antigen, pathological Gleason score, positive surgical margins,...
Study Type – Prognostic (cohort) Level of Evidence 2b What’s known on the subject? and What does study add? Currently, U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends against PSA screening for prostate cancer in men aged ≥75 years as it concluded that “the harm age may outweigh potential benefits”. Our findings suggest elderly with a velocity ≥0.45 ng/ml/year have higher risk death from cancer. Continuing testing be beneficial these men. OBJECTIVE • To evaluate weather...
Previously, we demonstrated that inhibition of proteasomal chymotrypsin-like (CT-like) activity in human prostate cancer (PCa) PC-3 cultures and xenografts results accumulation ubiquitinated proteins, followed by induction cell death. Studies have shown plasma CT-like may be a powerful biomarker for risk stratification hematologic malignancies. We hypothesized circulating proteasomes could also used to stratify patients with PCa. A total 109 suspected PCa underwent prostatic biopsies were...
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common kidney malignancy, with many histologic subtypes. One of rare forms RCC mucinous tubular and spindle (MTSCC), which newly described limited information on clinical picture outcome. Heterotopic bone formation (osseous metaplasia) a finding within any renal mass. Here we report case massive, bilateral MTSCC findings heterotopic formation, has not been before.
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common type of found in American men, other than skin cancer. The Cancer Society estimates that there will be 186,320 new cases prostate United States 2008. About 28,660 men die this disease year and PCa remains second-leading cause death men. One six get during his lifetime one 35 disease. Today, more 2 million who have had are still alive. rate for continues to decline, chiefly due early detection treatment, improved salvage therapy such as hormone (HT)....
We previously showed that urological outreach clinics significantly increase access to clinical care in rural populations. How such affect procedural is unknown. In this study we analyzed the use of facilities for outpatient hospital based a state.Using information from Office Statewide Clinical Education Programs and Iowa Hospital Association database, provider level data 2010 2013. Based on CPT codes all was categorized by procedure type intent. Cities containing an were characterized as...
