The United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Step 1 test evolved into a key metric utilized by program directors (PDs) in assessing candidates for residency. transition to USMLE binary pass/fail scoring system has resulted loss of an important objective assessment. With national movements toward systems clerkship grading and trends abandonment class ranking, residency applications become increasingly challenging.
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of preoperative aspects and dimensions used for anatomic ( PADUA ) radius exophytic/endophytic nearness anterior/posterior location RENAL scoring systems renal neoplasms in patients undergoing laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out on data 245 C hinese with nephrectomy from J une 2008 to 2012. The perioperative complications variables, as well score, were compared. Results significantly associated...
Purpose: Urology is one of the most competitive specialties for residency matches in United States. Data reported by American Urological Association from match cycles spanning 2014 to 2021 reveal a median 0.34% (0%-3%) unfilled spots, 1.48 (1.28-1.87) applicants per position, and 75% (63%-87%) rate. Recent research has shown that program directors value applicants' highly. We sought assess productivity matched urology applicants, identify trends volume over time, investigate potential...
What's known on the subject? and What does study add? Most transplant centres harvest living donor kidneys via a conventional laparoscopic surgical approach. Laparoendoscopic single‐site nephrectomy ( LESS‐DN ) is relatively novel minimally invasive approach that allows surgery to be performed single incision. This technique may advantageous in decreasing morbidity improving cosmetic outcomes, thus plausibly reducing barriers kidney donation. The demonstrates safety feasibility of large...

Data suggest many U.S. physicians experience burnout, affecting up to 65% of urology resident physicians. We implemented a multifaceted Urology Resident Wellness Curriculum and measured its effect on burnout reported among our trainees.We created 5-pronged Curriculum: 1) faculty-sponsored Fund, 2) social groups between 1 faculty 2-3 trainees, 3) one-on-one structured mentorship, 4) resident-organized outings using the 5) wellness education. administered 2 validated questionnaires, Maslach...
Our objective is to assess the impact of virtual interview (VI) format on urology residency interviews during COVID-19 pandemic from perspectives program directors (PDs).
Background . Acceptance of dual kidney transplantation (DKT) has proven difficult, due to surgical complexity and concerns regarding long-term outcomes. We herein present a standard technique for ipsilateral DKT compare outcomes single-kidney transplant (SKT) recipients. Methods A retrospective single-center comparison SKT performed between February 2007 July 2013. Results Of 516 deceased donor transplants, 29 were 487 SKT. Mean follow-up was 43 ± 67 months. recipients older more likely than...
