Objective: To evaluate how the recent changes to urology residency application process affect program directors' (PD) criteria for evaluating applicants. Methods: All 148 PDs were invited participate in an anonymous survey administered by REDCap 2024. Results: Forty-eight of (32.4%) responded survey. When whether interview applicant, highest ranked criterion 9 options listed was sub-internship (sub-I) performance at PD’s institution, followed letters recommendation (LORs), preference signal...
Preoperative estimation of new baseline glomerular filtration rate after partial nephrectomy or radical for renal cell carcinoma has important clinical implications. However, current predictive models are either complex lack external validity. We aimed to develop and validate a simple equation estimate postoperative rate.For development internal validation the equation, cohort 7,860 patients with undergoing nephrectomy/radical (2005-2015) at Veterans Affairs National Health System was...
This study assesses the effects of recent changes to urology residency match process.
Clinic no-shows result in misallocation of health care resources and decreased access to care. There is minimal published data examining factors associated with for ambulatory urology visits. We analyzed from a large cohort outpatient encounters at tertiary system identify that increase the likelihood no-show. Data were available scheduled appointments 18 clinics an academic, between January 1, 2018, June 30, 2023. A control group completed study no-show used comparative statistics. χ2 t...
To evaluate the utility of parenchymal volume analysis (PVA) for estimation split renal function (SRF) in patients with masses. SRF is important deciding about partial vs radical nephrectomy (PN/RN) and assessing risk developing severe chronic kidney disease after surgery. For donors PVA routinely used to estimate SRF, but more complex mass population remains undefined.All (n = 374) tumours a normal contralateral managed PN (2010-2018), preoperative/postoperative nuclear scans (NRS)...
African American men are more likely to be diagnosed with, die of and experience decisional regret about their prostate cancer than nonAfrican men. Although some clinical discrepancies may attributed genetic risk and/or access care, explanations for racial in remain largely speculative. We aim identify sources with a focus on disparities.A cohort 1,112 patients localized treated at the Cleveland Clinic between 2010 2016 were matched by race, Gleason score, treatment (external beam radiation,...
Objectives To characterise the long‐term success rate of ventral onlay buccal mucosa graft urethroplasty (vBMG) in management bulbar urethral stricture disease (USD), assess patient‐reported postoperative satisfaction and decision regret, delineate clinical factors impacting metrics. Subjects Methods Patients with prior vBMG for USD, performed at Cleveland Clinic between 2003 2022, were contacted brief structured interviews performed. Stricture recurrence need secondary procedures, baseline...
<h3>Importance</h3> Pubic hair grooming is a common practice that can lead to injury and morbidity. <h3>Objective</h3> To identify demographic behavioral risk factors associated with pubic grooming–related injuries characterize individuals high of develop recommendations for safe practices. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This cross-sectional study conducted national survey noninstitutionalized US adults (aged 18-65 years). The web-based was through probability-based web panel...
Rectoneovaginal fistulae (RnVFs) are abnormal connections between the rectum and a surgically created neovagina. Although very uncommon, they confer significant morbidity in patients may require multidisciplinary team approach to repair. Risk factors for RnVF include rectal injury at time of neovaginoplasty, malignancy neovagina, trauma (iatrogenic or otherwise), radiation, neovaginal revision surgery.The patient is 64-year-old transgender woman with recurrent following penile skin inversion...
Schwannomas, not uncommon in the head and neck, rarely occur pelvis. Here we describe a seminal vesicle schwannoma, first of its kind successfully excised via robotic surgery. An otherwise well 62 year-old male presented with complaint rectal pain. Colonoscopy identified mass effect on rectum, suggesting an external lesion. A computed tomography scan revealed right mass. Transrectal ultrasound guided biopsy returned tissue diagnosis schwannoma. To aid operative planning, magnetic resonance...
Aims and objectives: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) remains an effective treatment for large stones. When nephrostomy tube (NT) is left post operation, antegrade urine flow often confirmed with nephrostography (ANG) before removal. We compare methylene blue (MB) test combined NT capping trial against ANG to assess after PCNL. Materials Methods: One hundred one consecutive patients undergoing PCNL were prospectively enrolled between 7/2014 4/2015. An cap was placed the morning of...
