Male infertility remains poorly understood at the molecular level. We aimed in this study to investigate yield of a "genomics first" approach male infertility.Patients with severe oligospermia and nonobstructive azoospermia were investigated using exome sequencing (ES) parallel standard practice chromosomal analysis.In 285 patients, 10.5% (n = 30) had evidence aberrations while nearly quarter 69; 24.2%) potential monogenic form infertility. The latter ranged from variants genes previously...
Abstract Background Machine learning (ML) is a significant area of artificial intelligence, which can improve the accuracy predictive or diagnostic models for differentiating between prostate biopsy outcomes. This study aims to develop novel decision-support ML model classifying patients with biopsy-negative (cancer-free), clinically significant, and non-clinically cancer across two prostate-specific antigen (PSA) cut-offs ≤ 10 ng/ml > ng/ml. Methods The data current were retrieved from...
We evaluated the effect of repeated intradetrusor injections BTA in pediatric myelomeningocele not responding to medical management.After baseline history, physical examination and urodynamic assessment was injected (5 IU/kg body weight, maximum 300 IU) at 10 30 sites. Clinical performed 3 months after each injection. Re-treatment offered when clinical symptoms returned.A total 20 patients (average age 13 years) received injections. Of became continent. MBC increased from 215.6 +/- 58.8 cc...
The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence, risk factors, and impact upon health related quality life (HRQL) urinary incontinence in Saudi women.We performed a clinic-based cross-sectional survey. 6,600 women aged 20 years older selected. bother symptoms was assessed using Arabic version short form Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI-6) questionnaire. We measured on HRQL Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7).The overall prevalence our 29%. according its type 50% stress...
Calculous formation is a well-known complication of lower urinary tract reconstruction using an intestinal segment. Special considerations are required as access to the reconstructed bladder complicated. To date, standard strategy yet be accepted. This study aims investigate efficiency and safety percutaneous cystolitholapaxy (PCCL) access. was retrospective analysis patients with who developed stones were treated PCCL. Seven underwent total nine PCCLs between 2019 2023. Sone burden ranged...
To evaluate the clinical outcomes of two different doses BTX-A in patients with refractory idiopathic overactive bladder.Thirty nine bladder from 1/1/2008 till 30/3/2009 were evaluated a tertiary care hospital. Patients using urodynamic studies, voiding diary, UDI-6 and IIQ-7 questionnaires prior to being prospectively randomized (alternate randomization) applications three months after treatment. Voiding diary residual volume followed weeks later. All received intradetrusorial injections...
The main objective is to review the overall result and impact of preoperative testosterone level on sperm retrieval rate (SRR) by microdissection testicular extraction (micro-TESE) in patients with nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA).We retrospectively reviewed files who underwent micro-TESE for NOA from August 2013 December 2014. All were evaluated history, physical examination, hormonal assessment. Patients had previous micro-TESE, obstructive azoospermia, or took hormone therapy excluded...
Aim: To report the result of vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) repair using transabdominal approach with flap interposition. Materials and Methods: Between January 2004 end 2011, operative reports data medical records systems were reviewed for all VVF cases operated followed in Urology Department. All patients had detailed history taking physical exam by intravenous pyelograms or contrast CT abdomen pelvis to rule out presence ureterovaginal fistulae. We utilized infra-umbilical transpose an...
Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy sacral neuromodulation (SNM) in patients with idiopathic nonobstructive urinary retention. Materials Methods: We retrospectively reviewed files who underwent staged for retention from 2004 2016 at our hospital. Patients had a 50% improvement symptoms after 1 week stage procedure were qualified permanent device implantation. Patient data assessed on need intermittent self-catheterization, complications, operative...
Abstract Aims To translate and validate the Arabic version of short form Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI‐6) questionnaire in a sample women with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Methods Two native Saudis independently translated original UDI‐6 into Arabic. These two translations were harmonized, then checked by independent back translation English teachers. They collaborated clinical investigators to reach consensus questionnaire. The harmonized was pre‐tested pilot study on 20...
Purpose Augmentation cystoplasty (AC) is a surgical procedure used in adults and children with refractory bladder dysfunction, including small capacity inadequate compliance, whom conservative medical treatment has failed. This study was aimed to determine the long-term outcomes of AC children. Methods A retrospective analysis conducted 42 patients (31 males; mean age, 14.2±6.2 years) who underwent for neurogenic nonneurogenic median 12.0±1.5 years follow-up. All using ileum or without...
Background:Almost one-fifth of the population Saudi Arabia lives in rural areas and may still lack access to specialty healthcare. Because growing demand for telehealth services, we initiated virtual clinic (VC) concept new referrals pediatric urology (PUC), primary tertiary care unit Riyadh.Methods:We conducted a retrospective analysis costs timing involved with VC practice 1-year period. The cost is based on savings realized by patients as result evaluation. A 15-question nonvalidated...
Abstract Introduction The need for patching of the penile tunica albuginea (TA) might arise during surgery Peyronie’s disease with or without a prosthesis. Clinically, TachoSil has evolved as an off-the-shelf hemostatic graft that does not suturing. Results in patients are encouraging. However, its histopathological fate and impact on hemodynamics erection known. Objective We evaluate long-term histopathology pharmacologically induced after Tachosil TA dogs. Methods Under general anesthesia,...
Abstract Introduction Large Language Model (LLM) applications in Medicine are increasing. Chatbots ChatGPT and GPT4 were tested against medical exams. The vetting of these tests as a source information for both the patient physician is needed. A credible may be used gold standard which LLM can tested. Objective We assess performance to answer American Urological Association (AUA) Self-Assessment Study Program (SASP) questions on male sexual dysfunction (MSD), female (FSD), sexually...
Accurately identifying aggressive prostate tumors and studying them as a separate outcome are urgently needed. Nomogram is predictive tool using an algorithm, it has been widely applied in clinical practice to predict prognosis. We aimed develop internally validate nomogram predicting clinically significant cancer (csPCa).Data were retrieved from the records of two main hospitals Riyadh, during period 2019-2022. Significant variables associated with csPCa cases used novel nomogram, utilizing...
