Background: The pedicled latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap (LDMCF) in autologous breast reconstruction has been superseded by abdominal free tissue transfer. Common complaints of the LDMCF include asymmetric back scar, need for prosthesis, and high seroma rates. We believe that remains versatile, with distinct advantages over other options: can be harvested unilaterally or bilaterally, not ‘burning any bridges’ future unilateral reconstruction; recovery is relatively easy, without...
Objectives Penile urethral stricture disease not associated with hypospadias is rare, and there a wide range of commonly used surgical repair techniques for this disease. We sought to compile multi‐institutional database patients who had correction strictures in the penile urethra limited meatus, no history hypospadias, analysis using Trauma Urologic Reconstructive Network Surgeons length, segment etiology classification system. Methods A retrospective from 13 institutions was compiled...
Posterior urethral stricture disease presents challenges for even the most skilled reconstructive urologists. Regardless of surgical technique used, these are complex operations that occur in hard-to-access locations. We describe use a novel combination laparoscopic instrumentation to simplify posterior reconstruction.We retrospectively identified patients undergoing repair utilizing RD-180® suture device and Securestrap®. These procedures were performed by single surgeon at our institution....
Purpose: Lower urinary tract symptoms among adult men can significantly impact quality of life. We evaluated complications based on prostate size following plasmakinetic enucleation the prostate. Materials and Methods: Patients were grouped into small group (SPG, <75 g) large (LPG, >75 preoperative imaging. Patient data demographics, comorbidities, international symptom score (IPSS), bother index (BI), prostate-specific antigen (PSA) if indicated, postvoid residual volume (PVR), indwelling...
Abstract Background: Along with the expanding treatment landscape of mRCC, a substantial need for ways to predict individual patients' (pts) benefit from different therapies has emerged. Recent studies highlight clinical significance tumor-specific genomic alterations, revealing prognostic and/or predictive role PBRM1 mutations IO in mRCC (Miao et al Nature 2018). Employing large institutional database, we aimed identify correlates CB and VEGF-TKIs mRCC. Methods: Consecutive pts who...
