To report our experience with Fournier's Gangrene (FG) over the past eight years and evaluate predisposing factors which affect mortality.Sixty-five patients who were admitted to emergency surgical unit of institution presenting FG between January 2006 August 2014 included. The anatomical site infective gangrene, factors, etiological outcomes retrospectively reviewed.Our cases included 8 women 57 men. average age men was 51±13.9 (range 19-75) 63±10.5 52-76). Average hospitalization time...
To evaluate the reliability of testicular stiffness quantification using shear wave elastography in predicting fertility potential males and for pre-diagnosis disorders based upon sperm quantification.One hundred between ages 19-49 years (mean age 28.77±6.11), ninety whom with complaints infertility, were enrolled this prospective study. Scrotal grey-scale, Doppler ultrasound (US), mean velocity quantifications (SWVQs) performed. The volumes testes, as well grade varicocele if present,...
Purpose: To investigate the prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and without any other comorbidities.
Aim: There is much evidence of an association between cancer and irisin that adipokine. This study researched on the relationship prostate (PCa) levels, whether can be used as a biomarker in diagnosis PCa. Materials Methods: For groups, 50 primary PCa patients 30 healthy male subjects were included control respectively. All volunteers group screened for other malignancies chronic diseases. Volunteers who determine to completely group. In serum samples measured free PSA, total PSA levels....
Mini-PCNL is one of the most effective surgical methods in treatment kidney stones pediatric patients. In this study, we aimed to compare PCNL supine-prone position patients (especially operation time, postop complications, hospital stay and stone-free rates).We conducted our study a randomized prospective manner. Patients with lower pole larger than 1 cm, 1.5 cm pelvis, upper pole, midpole or multiple locations, who did not respond ESWL whose family that preferred mini-PCNL be primary were...
BACKGROUND Oxidative DNA damage is associated with male infertility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the oxidative sperm cells and blood leukocytes determine levels MDA NO in seminal plasma idiopathic infertile men. MATERIAL AND METHODS enrolled 52 patients, including 30 22 fertile MDA, NO, 8-OHdG/106dG were estimated using spectrophotometry high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC)-based methods plasma. association parameters assessed, particularly counts motility. RESULTS mean...
We have aimed to determine whether oxidants-antioxidants play a role in the etiopathogenesis of bladder tumour by measuring their levels serums patients with tumour.Thirty superficial and 27 normal healthy volunteers were included study. Four cc venous blood was taken from these control group centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 10 minutes divided into serum plasma. The activities xanthine oxidase, glutathione reductase, glutathione-s transferase, reduced superoxide dismutase enzymes then measured...
Our aim was to test the hypothesis that preoperative serum levels of matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) and -9 (MMP-9) tissue inhibitor metalloproteinase (TIMP-1) correlate with pathological features. Serum MMP-7, MMP-9 TIMP-1 were determined in 90 bladder cancer patients 40 healthy controls using an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Preoperative MMP-7 significantly higher than control groups (p<0.001). In contast, lower Alteration MMP-9, production may contribute tumor angiogenesis be...
Objectives To compare the efficacy, safety and cost of combinations perineal pudendal nerve block + periprostatic intrarectal local anesthesia with standard technique (periprostatic block). Methods The study was designed as a randomized prospective controlled trial. Patients elevated serum prostate‐specific antigen values (prostate‐specific ≥4 ng/mL) and/or abnormal digital rectal examination findings were included in study. anorectal diseases, chronic prostatitis, previous history prostate...
Aim: The etiology of the disease Peyronie is not certainly known. However, penile micro traumas are thought to be important in pathogenesis Peyronie’s (PD) genetically predisposed individuals. In this study, we aimed determine relationship some trace element and heavy metals with PD.Material methods: Thirty patients 26 healthy volunteers were included study. individuals both groups, levels serum elements (Manganese [Mn], Cu, Cobalt (Co), zinc [Zn], Cd, iron [Fe]) determined separately by...
Hypospadias is one of the most common penile congenital anomalies, which often requires a surgical approach. After hypospadias repaired, urethral fistula can occur in around 20% patients. In this study, we used platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to reduce and other post-operative complications after repair. Only patients with primary mid-penile were included study. Patients forms than cases previous surgery excluded from A total 40 These divided into groups B 20 each group. repair was performed...
Recently, extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is more commonly used in noninvasive treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). There no definitive protocol on the use ESWT. In this study, we aimed to compare focused and unfocused ESWT ED. We created two groups, each including 20 patients with similar demographics. Focused performed one group, while for other group. Patients are assessed IIEF-5 EHS. Mean score was increased by 6.3 ± 3.3 (p < .05) from 9.6 2.9 15.0 5.0 3-month follow-up 5.34...
Prolidase plays a major role in collagen turnover, matrix remodeling, and cell growth. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) may be associated with an increased extracellular deposition. Therefore, the present study was designed to investigate plasma prolidase activity, oxidative status, peripheral mononuclear leukocyte DNA damage patients BPH.Twenty-six male BPH 24 healthy subjects were included this study. Blood samples collected from antecubital vein after overnight fasting period,...

Objective: To investigate the effect of preoperative tamsulosin use on success and complications rates ureteroscopy for ureteral stone removal.
Background The study investigated the association between varicocele, lower extremity venous insufficiency and hemorrhoidal disease. Methods included 62 patients with varicocele 60 voluntary subjects no varicocele. Patients who were diagnosed as having on physical examination Doppler ultrasonography in group. Examination of was performed by ultrasonography. disease a general surgery specialist. Results had statistically significant ( p < 0.05) higher rates extremities borderline...
The aim of the present study was to evaluate retrospectively histopathologically-diagnosed lesions that were detected in kidney after radical nephrectomy for a preoperative diagnosis cancer.The medical records 83 patients (51 male, 32 female) included. Preoperative staging accomplished by various methods including physical examination, blood hemography and biochemistry, abdominal ultrasonography (US), chest x-ray, computed tomography (CT) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).Totals 70 underwent...
