To determine mid-term durability of the AdVance sling for post-prostatectomy incontinence (PPI) and impact prior radiotherapy storage dysfunction.Eighty men undergoing PPI during 2008-2013 were reviewed. Pre-op urodynamics, pre post-op pad usage, radiotherapy, PGI-I scores recorded.Mean follow-up was 36 months (range 14-72). Twelve had pre-op, 10 detrusor overactivity (DO), 20 reduced compliance. mean 24-hr weight 264 g pads-per-day (PPD) 2.60 ± 0.29. In early period (3-6 months), PPD 0.40...

To assess the efficacy of OnabotulinumtoxinA (BTXA) injections in men with drug-refractory non-neurogenic overactive bladder (NNOAB).A total 43 received BTXA for NNOAB from 2004 to 2012. Patient Global Impression Improvement (PGI-I) score was obtained. For wet NNOAB, change number pads per day also assessed.Forty-three a mean age 69 (range 37-85) at least one injection. Of men, 20 (47%) had prior prostate surgery: 11 radical prostatectomy (RP) and nine transurethral resection (TURP)....

Abstract Background Patients presenting in urinary retention secondary to prostatic obstruction are offered transurethral resection of the prostate ( TURP ) free them from long‐term catheterization. Short‐term success is well understood, but there scarce data about effect age on outcome, quality life and catheter‐free rates. Methods One hundred consecutive patients who presented underwent were identified. followed up for 3 years establish rate catheter dependence, incontinence, pad usage...

What's known on the subject? and What does study add? Flexible cystoscopy is commonly performed. Several studies show that topical anaesthetic lubricant reduces patient discomfort, particularly with long retention times (15–25 min). No have specifically addressed whether a short, clinically manageable time provides any benefit over immediate cystoscopy. Our demonstrates delay by 3-min interval no to patients more expedient approach can be justified without compromising comfort. LAY-TERM...

Objective To assess whether the penile cuff non‐invasive urodynamic test serves as an effective diagnostic tool for predicting outcomes prior to disobstructive surgery men presenting with voiding lower urinary tract symptoms. Patients proven obstruction do better after surgery. The current gold standard, invasive pressure‐flow studies, imposes cost, resource demand, discomfort and inconvenience patients. Methods undergoing prostatic at P almerston N orth H ospital had pre‐operative...

Patients Methods A retrospective review ATOMS devices placed between May 2015 November 2020 was conducted. Severity SUI assessed (pad usage) before after surgery. defined as mild (1–<3 pads/day), moderate (≥3–5 pads/day) or severe (>5 pads/day)....

Abstract Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is reported to offer the best of local disease in endometrial cancer. We audited MRI scans identify their clinical utility, particularly preoperative identification ‘low risk’ cancer (grade one or two endometrioid tumours confined inner half myometrium). Aim: To correlate histological and findings establish our ability preoperatively women with tumours. Study design: A retrospective audit a new diagnosis from July 1998 November 2002....

Purpose: The adrenal gland is an extremely rare location for a cavernous haemangioma, and so far only 53 cases have been reported in the literature. Here, we present case of laparoscopically resected left haemangioma. Indication resection incidentalomas, laparoscopic technique, unexpected histologies are discussed with review current Methodology: Incidentally 5 × 4 cm tumour was diagnosed 30 year old female patient. Preoperative imaging performed hormonactive tumours were ruled out....

Suprapubic catheter (SPC) insertion is a common urological procedure, typically performed for individuals who are unable to drain their bladder via the urethra. While often considered be safe and straightforward, our experience suggests this procedure may associated with significant comorbidity, serious adverse events, higher length of stay than expected. This study aimed understand current rates SPC insertion, demographics, indications, complications, stay. A retrospective review all...
