Segmental ureterectomy (SU) is an alternative to radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) in the treatment of upper-tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) ureter. SU generally preserves renal function, at expense less intensive cancer control. We aim assess whether associated with inferior survival compared RNU. Using National Cancer Database (NCDB), we identified patients diagnosed localized UTUC ureter between 2004–2015. used a propensity-score-overlap-weighted (PSOW) multivariable model compare...
Purpose: Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND) is an essential component of multimodal treatment testicular cancer. The latest data on the perioperative outcomes RPLNDs performed using open approach (O-RPLND) dates back over a decade. We report our contemporary institutional with O-RPLND. Materials and Methods: retrospectively identified all patients who underwent O-RPLND between 2013 2022 across institution. Clinical demographic were reviewed recorded. Descriptive statistics...

In the last three eras, incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has increased, due to increased radiological studies. The expected 5-year survival rate become better, associated with identification small size masses. However, this improvement may be secondary improved surgical techniques and medical therapies for these malignancies.The objective was report trends clinical presentation, peri-operative, oncological outcomes, management RCCs over period.After Institutional Review Board...
