The ideal number of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) cycles for muscle-invasive bladder cancer is uncertain with 3 to 4 representing the standard care (SOC). We compared ypT0 rates and survival between patients receiving versus NAC evaluation chemotherapy-related toxicity correlation tumor chemosensitivity pathological response.Patients followed by radical cystectomy cT2-4N0M0 urothelial carcinoma from 2 institutions were included. Primary study groups included cisplatin-based cycles, nonSOC...
Background and Purpose: More than 40% of patients undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) are left with residual stone fragments often require secondary procedures. Portable CT (PCT) technology allows surgeons to obtain intraoperative cross-sectional imaging, identify extract stones immediately, thereby reduce the need for subsequent This prospective trial evaluates how incorporation PCT during PCNL affects perioperative outcomes. Patients Methods: We prospectively enrolled eligible...
Penile gangrene is a rare but unfortunate complication of surgical intervention and priapism shunts. The literature regarding penile following correction sparse, the majority which dates back to thirty forty years. Here, we present case 60-year-old man who presented with that required operative management modified Al-Ghorab shunt eventually suffered from complete necrosis penis abscess formation in both corpora cavernosa.

3091 Background: Bacterial nitroreductase (ntr) converts the weak monofunctional alkylating agent CB1954 into a highly cytotoxic bifunctional effective in replicating and quiescent cells. We have previously reported phase I safety biodistribution studies using intraprostatic injection of replication defective adenovirus encoding ntr (CTL102). Immunohistochemistry resected prostate demonstrated dose-related staining tumour, glandular epithelium stroma. Increasing volume achieved more...
While cutaneous metastases are already extremely rare in primary metastatic prostatic adenocarcinoma, manifestations recurrent prostate cancer have rarely been described prior to this report. Here we present the case report of a 93-year-old male who underwent radical prostatectomy but eventually suffered from previously undescribed recurrence adenocarcinoma with distant proximal right lower leg.
Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) is a rare hepatic venous outflow obstruction typically associated with hypercoagulable states. We present unique case of 29-year-old male BCS triggered by recent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Workup unveiled antiphospholipid antibody as an underlying prothrombotic condition. Diagnostic challenges included inconclusive ultrasound findings, necessitating magnetic resonance imaging for confirmation. This underscores the importance considering infectious triggers...
Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is a common surgical procedure for ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis. IPAA strictures are known complication, often requiring intervention. Endoscopic interventions offer less invasive alternative, but their safety efficacy remain uncertain. A comprehensive literature search was performed to identify pertinent studies. Outcomes assessed were technical success, clinical success (immediate end of follow...

We sought to compare re-treatment rates between shockwave lithotripsy and ureteroscopy evaluate the effectiveness of these modalities. Additionally, we aimed costs associated with re-treatment.The Healthcare Cost Utilization Project State Ambulatory Surgery Database for Florida from 2009 2015 was used identify patients who underwent or ureteroscopy. Patients were tracked subsequent stone surgeries within 3 months, 6 months 1 year. Costs care estimated descriptive analyses performed. A...
