A committee was established at the request of Canadian Urological Association to develop guidelines for investigation and management azoospermia.Members committee, all whom have special expertise in male
Erectile dysfunction (ED) impacts the wellness and quality of life millions Canadians. An evaluation focused on identification reversible irreversible underlying factors is recommended for patients presenting with ED. Through a shared decision-making model framework, goal ED treatment to improve functional outcomes enhance sexual satisfaction while minimizing adverse effects associated treatment. Given that assessed treated by multiple different types health practitioners, purpose this...
To perform complete resection of locally advanced and recurrent rectal carcinoma, total pelvic exenteration (TPE) may be attempted. We identified disease-related outcomes prognostic factors.We conducted a single-centre review patients who underwent TPE for carcinoma over 10-year period.We included 28 in our study. After median follow-up 35 months, 53.6% were alive with no evidence disease. The 3-year actuarial disease-free overall survival rates 52.2% 75.1%, respectively. On univariate...

For these priority topics, we performed a critical evaluation of the literature using Evidence to Decision (EtD) GRADE framework arrive at transparent evidence-based recommendations
Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols are multimodal perioperative care that designed to shorten time and reduce complication rates.1,2 An ERAS protocol was implemented in the Saskatoon Health region for radical cystectomy patients 2013. This study evaluates safety efficacy of having bladder cancer.Length stay, early in-hospital rates, 30-day readmission age, gender were collected seen cancer requiring between January 2007 December 2016. Of these patients, 176 pre-ERAS...
For medical students, determining which aspects of the Canadian Residency Matching Service (CaRMS) application are most important when applying to residency programs can be challenging. Due lack current and reliable information on selection criteria urology programs, we surveyed each program about selecting future residents in order provide students with more transparency a better idea how their compare those others.An electronic survey was sent all 13 (both directors committee members). It...
The effect of point-of-care ultrasound (US) training on clinical reasoning in undergraduate medical education remains largely unknown, with concerns arising about possible confusion among learners when such tools are introduced too early. We studied the a urology US module performance questions designed to assess urinary tract obstruction and voiding dysfunction.All second-year students at University Saskatchewan (Regina [n = 36] Saskatoon 61]) were enrolled study. Each cohort participated...
Most giant pheochromocytomas do not present with classic symptoms, as documented by published case reports. Given this, clinicians have to consider a wide differential diagnosis for any retroperitoneal mass and perform screening tests rule out pheochromocytoma. We describe the largest pheochromocytoma reported in Canada, where patient presented palpable abdominal dyspnea. The 19 × 18 12-cm right was biochemically active radiologically pathologically consistent this review relevant current literature.

Introduction . Chlamydia trachomatis is an established cause of tubal factor infertility; however its role in male fertility not as clear. We sought to determine the prevalence infertile men and evaluate impact on reproductive potential. Materials Methods compared incidence our population with that reported literature. then reviewed infection fertility. Results The was 0.3%. There considerable variability incidence, likely due variation studied, detection technique. optimal testing method...
Background: Continuing medical education for referring physicians is an essential part of raising the profile plastic surgery and improving patient care. The authors conducted a prospective cohort study to assess educational needs emergency primary care who refer patients on-call surgeon. Methods: following information was collected telephone referrals from over 1-year period: date, location referral center, population distance between center tertiary hospital, age, presenting problem,...

There have been tremendous advances in both the diagnosis and treatment of male factor infertility; however, mechanisms responsible to recreate spermatogenesis outside testicular environment continue elude andrologists. Having ability 'grow' human sperm would be a advance reproductive biology with multiple possible clinical applications, such as option for men failure azoospermia etiologies. To understand complexities research environment, model systems designed intent replicate...
Prostate cancer usually metastasizes to the regional lymph nodes, and distal metastases supraclavicular nodes are rarely reported, especially as an initial presentation. Limited case reports describe cervical lymphadenopathy presentation of metastatic prostate cancer, often with widely disseminated disease. Patients this undergo digital rectal examination or serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level measurement part their investigations. A high index suspicion is necessary make diagnosis...
Epithelioid hemangioma is a rare benign vascular tumour that atypically involves the penis and usually presents as painful nodule. A 35-year-old man presented with 5-month history of erections without clinically apparent lesion or deformity. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pharmacologically induced erection demonstrated 1.3-cm nodular deep to skin at base his penis. Following local excision lesion, which was diagnosed an epithelioid hemangioma, patient symptom free. This case demonstrates...
Despite recent advances in surgical technique using laparoscopic and robotic approaches for the management of early organ-confined prostate cancer, most contemporary reports demonstrate significant rates erectile dysfunction comparable to standard open approaches. Controversy remains related many pre-and postoperative strategies, including agents enhance nerve recovery, erectogenic drugs, antioxidants, vasoactive injectables, vacuum erection devices grafting procedures. Additionally, optimal...
