Introduction: Benign prostatic enlargement (BPE) and lower urinary tract symptoms present challenges in aging men, often addressed through transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Despite technological advancements, bladder neck contracture (BNC) remains a concern. This study explores predictors, including comorbidities, influencing BNC after TURP. Methods: A retrospective cohort at Changhua Christian Hospital analyzed 2041 BPE patients undergoing bipolar Preoperative catheterization...
Background: The optimal treatment for distal ureteral calculi remains controversial. We present data from our institution to compare the efficacy of extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) and ureteroscopy with different modalities (URSL). Methods: From January 1994 September 1997, 954 were treated at using in situ SWL (Siemens Lithostar) 524 patients (Wolf 8.0F instrument Swiss Lithoclast) 430 patients. Stone sizes patient ages similar these two groups. Results: In group, 3-month...
This study was conducted to investigate the safety and feasibility of self-retaining barbed absorbable suture application in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN). From January 2010 September 2014, 38 cases LPN were performed at Changhua Christian Hospital, Changhua, Taiwan. The patients divided into two groups: nonself-retaining (non-SRBS) group (n = 21) SRBS 17). There no significant difference age, RENAL (Radius, Exophytic/Endophytic properties, Nearness tumor collecting system or sinus,...
<title>Abstract</title> We report the case of a 79-year-old woman with primary lymphoma mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) in urinary bladder. The patient frequency, urgency and suprapubic pain had several emergency room visits due to recurrent tract infection. Both sonogram cystoscopy identified bladder tumors near neck. An abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed polypoid lesion on inferior wall without enlarged lymph nodes. Transurethral resection tumor was...
Since the mass vaccination for COVID-19, several case reports indicated risk of autoimmune disease flare-ups after vaccination. Among them, COVID-19 vaccine-induced glomerular diseases have drawn attention worldwide. The cases demonstrating association between mRNA vaccine and IgA nephropathy (IgAN) exacerbation had been noticed. Mostly mentioned, usually occurred second dose.We present a Taiwanese female with IgAN who developed gross hematuria within only six hours first dose Moderna...
Abstract Rationale: Malakoplakia and xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis are chronic inflammatory conditions of the kidney characterized by infiltration cells. Patient concerns: An 82-year-old female patient had a history hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, end-stage renal disease under hemodialysis. She was admitted repeatedly 4 times within months due to urosepsis. Diagnosis: The enlarged right with low-density lesion at middle calyx, well-enhanced ureter were noted on...
Prostate cancer (PC) is one of the major diseases that affects male health and ranks as second most frequent in men worldwide. Although newly-diagnosed PCs are well-differentiated tumors with a high cure probability, there some patients aggressive malignancies show potential for recurrence metastasis. Cytotoxic T lymphocytes specific immune effector cell population mediates responses against cancer.In present study, cytotoxicity peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs)-derived γδ...
s / Urological Science 26 (2015) S50eS81 S57 The operation began with 7ecm midline incision above the umbilicus. A small hole of cystic wall was created and more than 6 L yellowish clear fluid drained. hand-assisted device placed in wound. While other two 10-mm trocar were left lower abdomen anterior axillary line subcostally. membrane cyst dissected as much possible. Nephropexy done to attach migrating kidney back abdominal wall. postoperative course uneventful patient discharged 3 days...

Materials and Methods: From Jan 2010 to Dec. 2014 a total 419 men underwent vasectomy for birth control in our hospital. Patients demographics postvasectomy results were collected retrospectively. Results: During period recent 5 years, patients Most has 2 or more children after marriage. Postvasectomy was completed within 3-6 months...
Introduction and Objectives: Iatrogenic ureteral strictures have been on a rise. In the management of upper urinary tract stricture, open ureteroureterostomy is gold standard in treating stricture. As surgical procedure moves toward minimally invasive with either laparoscopic or robot assisted, methods moved away from tactile sensation rely more visual cues. When performing reconstruction for cases iatrogenic strictures, main challenges are identifying determining length this study, we would...
Purpose: Pure laparoendoscopic single-site (LESS) radical prostatectomy is still a challenging procedure even in the robotic era. Herein, we present LESS plus one robot-assisted extraperitoneoscopic for prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: Three consecutive patients with cancer had performed using this technique. The clinical stages are cT1cN0M0 two cT3aN0M0 patient. were placed on low lithotomy without or mild Trendelenburg position, which can avoid complications caused by steep...
