Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data 621 patients who underwent biopsy between March 2013 and April 2018. Age, specific antigen (PSA), free PSA, platelet count, neutrophil lymphocyte monocyte volume (PV) pathology result were recorded. Patients grouped as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostatitis PCa. also according to PSA values, < 4 ,...

To evaluate success and complication rates of endourological stone treatments to effects percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) on renal functions, in patients with solitary kidneys.In our center, 3150 underwent PCNL between 2003 2017 142 retrograd intrarenal surgery (RIRS) 2013 2017. We retrospectively analysed the data 82 kidney who 8 RIRS. Complications were classified according Clavien-Dindo Classification system. Serum creatinin was measured before procedure, early postoperative period at...

The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy Guy's Stone Score (GSS) and Clinical Research Endourological Society (CROES) Nomogram in predicting PCNL outcomes pediatric patients with kidney stone.A retrospective review clinical data 120 who underwent between August 2004 February 2016 performed. Patients were grouped according stone-free (SF) status complication status. whose history, preoperative physical examination records, biochemical analysis, imaging records available did not...

Objectives To evaluate the efficacy of non-contrast-enhanced computed tomography (NCECT) renal pelvis Hounsfield unit (HU) values in differentiating between hydronephrosis and pyonephrosis dilated urinary systems. Materials methods Patients who underwent percutaneous nephrostomy (PN) due to system obstruction last three years were retrospectively evaluated. Pyonephrosis groups differentiated according clarity needle aspiration. The patients’ pelvic anteroposterior (AP) diameter, area, mean...

<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> To compare the efficacy of middle calyx access (MCA) and lower (LCA) in treatment pole kidney stones. <b><i>Materials Methods:</i></b> The data patients with isolated stones who underwent percutaneous nephrolithotomy via MCA or LCA between 2009 2019 were evaluated retrospectively. Pre-, peri-, postoperative parameters groups (LCA group group) compared. A value <i>p</i> < 0.05 was considered...

Background: The hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte and platelet (HALP) score integrates readily available blood markers that reflect systemic inflammation, nutritional status, immune response, all of which can influence cancer progression. This study investigated the association between HALP clinicopathological characteristics in patients with testicular tumor. Methods: Data who underwent radical orchiectomy for tumors January 2020 2024 were reviewed. Preoperative serum tumor markers, hemogram...

Objectives: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the parameters that could predict clinically insignificant prostate cancer (ciPCa) in men who underwent transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided biopsy. Methods: Data of patients biopsy between January 2015 and November 2019 were examined retrospectively. Free/total PSA ratio (fPSA%), serum total free prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, volumes (PV) measured by ultrasonography, density (PSAD) values before recorded. ciPCa defined as with...

Objective: In the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), urology guide- lines recommend medical or surgical treatments according to different prostate volumes (PV). The aim this study was analyze relationships between PV and age, total free specific antigen (tPSA, fPSA) fPSA/tPSA ratio in patients without histologically proven cancer. Materials methods: A retrospective analysis made data 1334 who underwent transrectal ultra- sound (TRUS)-guided biopsy January 2016 October 2018....

Objective: To assess efficacy of the Guy's Stone score (GSS) and Clinical Research Office Endourological Society (CROES) nomogram in predicting outcomes percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) patients with solitary kidney.Materials Methods: Ninety kidney, who underwent PCNL between 2010 2018 our center, were evaluated.Demographic characteristics preoperative laboratory results recorded.Operative time, duration anesthesia, access number, stone location, supracostal access, stone-free (SF) rate,...

Objective: To evaluate the effects of three different local anesthetic agents in patients who underwent Transrectal ultrasoun guided prostate needle biopsy.Materials and Methods: One hundred sixty were admitted to our clinic between January 2012 May for biopsy divided into 4 groups: no anesthesia-administered group (group 1), lidocaine-administered 2), levobupivacaine-administered 3) bupivacaine-administered 4).Pain intensity was evaluated each using visual analog scale (VAS): during...

Patlaması: İki Olgu SunumuTransurethral procedures are common urologic performed in daily clinical practice.Bladder explosion during transurethral resection is very rare.There various theories to explain the underlying mechanism for intravesical explosion.Here, we report two patients who suffered a bladder of prostate and discuss how prevent this complication.

Objectives: To evaluate the risk factors for pain occurring during prostate biopsy. Methods: This study included 123 patients were applied with needle biopsy under transrectal ultrasonography. The randomly separated into 3 groups of 41 individuals. For periprostatic nerve blockage, 10 cc 2% lidocaine was to Group 1, 0.25% levobupivacaine 2, and bupivacaine 3. A cm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) used patient pain. evaluated in 4 stages. VAS 1: Pain score injection anaesthetic agent; 2: when half...

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> We aimed to identify factors affecting percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) outcomes among patients with horseshoe kidney (HSK) and assess the predictive accuracy of Clinical Research Office Endourological Society (CROES), Guy’s Stone Score (GSS), S.T.O.N.E. scoring systems. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Data from 98 HSK who underwent PNL between November 2010 January 2020 were evaluated. Patients divided into stone-free (SF)...

Objective: To compare the anaesthesia methods in percutaneous nephrolithotomy terms of safety and effectiveness elderly men.Methods: Elderly male patients who had undergone were screened retrospectively divided into 2 groups: under combined spino-epidural (Group CSEA, n = 70) general GA, 114). Preoperative, perioperative postoperative outcome measures examined.Results: Between two groups, there was no statistically significant difference stone burden, location, presence previous operation...
