Fluoroscopy is increasingly used to guide minimally invasive endourological procedures and optimised protocols are needed minimise radiation exposure while achieving best treatment results. This multi-center study of patients was conducted by the South-Eastern European Group for Urolithiasis Research (SEGUR), in cooperation with International Atomic Energy Agency. Seven clinical centers from SEGUR group collected data 325 performed within a three-months period, including standard...
Introduction: Fluoroscopy-guided endourology procedures require proper radiation protection to minimize risk. This multicenter study aimed at investigating practice and related exposure of operating team members. Materials Methods: Six centers from the South-Eastern European Group for Urolithiasis Research answered questionnaires collected data 315 performed within a 3-months period, with simultaneous measurement dose staff area product (DAP) patient. A pair calibrated personal dosimeters,...
The International Alliance of Urolithiasis (IAU) would like to release the latest guideline on percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and provide a clinical framework for surgeons performing PCNL. These recommendations were collected appraised from systematic review assessment literature covering all aspects PCNLs PubMed database between January 1, 1976, July 31, 2021. Each generated recommendation was graded using modified GRADE methodology. quality evidence classification system Oxford Center...
The aim is to estimate the possibility new annual dose limit for eye lens be exceeded and study impact of protective shield. Radiation exposure medical personnel was evaluated with EDD-30 dosemeter in positions operating surgeon, assisting doctor nurse. At operator's typical position diagnosis treatment urinary tract, rates were 0.9 mSv h−1 0.06 without lead percutaneous intervention 1.9 0.02 h−1, respectively. workload, main operator screen estimated 29 mSv. With screen, can reduced by a...
Objective: To study urinary stone composition patterns in different populations around the world. Materials and methods: Data were collected by reviewing charts of 1204 adult patients 10 countries with renal or ureteral stones (> 18 years) whom a analysis was done available. Any method accepted, but methodology had to be registered. Results: In total, we observed 710 (59%) calcium oxalate, 31 (1%) phosphate, 161 (13%) mixed oxalate/calcium 15 carbapatite, 110 (9%) uric acid, 7 (< 1%)...
To investigate some epidemiological aspects of kidney stones in the South- Eastern European area.From September 2015 to December 2015, 538 consecutive patients were treated and evaluated for reno-ureteral eight departments Bulgaria, Greece, Italy, FYR Macedonia, Romania, Serbia Turkey.The age onset was lower Turkey higher Italy. The rate recurrent Romania Serbia, while first renal stone formers more frequent previous history stones, characteristics dietary habits different countries. In...
Objective: The purposes of this multi-center study were to evaluate the rate infection stones and urine cultures patients with stones. Materials: Charts adulpatients urinary reviewed data on stone analyses collected. Results: In total, 1204 renal formers (RSFs) from 10 countries included (776 males, 428 females). Fifty-six (4.6%) had struvite highest frequency was observed in India (23%) Pakistan (18%). Lower rates reported Canada (2%), China (3%), Argentina Iraq Italy (3.5%) Poland...
Objective: To collect evidence on the rate of obesity in renal stone formers (RSFs) living different climatic areas and consuming diets. Materials methods: Data adult were retrospectively collected by members U-merge from 13 participant centers Argentina, Brazil, Bulgaria (2), China, India, Iraq Italy Nigeria, Pakistan Poland. The following data collected: age, gender, weight, height, analysis procedure removal. Results: In total, 1689 (1032 males, 657 females) 10 countries considered....
Introduction: Prostate cancer remains a formidable health challenge, demanding diagnostic strategies that balance accuracy and invasiveness. To enhance early detection accurate risk stratification, various methods have been developed. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is considered the standard imaging modality for localization of prostate cancer. Reporting Data System (PI-RADS) standardized system assigns scores to suspicious lesions based on MRI findings. This helps distinguish likelihood...
Introduction: Ureteral strictures are severe and difficult to treat disorders significantly affect the quality of life patients. Endoscopic laser ureterotomy is a minimally invasive procedure that increasingly used for management ureteral strictures. Objective:The objective our study evaluate efficacy safety Holmium endoureterotomy in treatment with length ≤ 10 mm. Material methods:A retrospectively collected database 21 patients who unederwent uretereral mm between January 2018 2021 Clinic...
Introduction and objective: Management of large impacted proximal ureteral stones is often challenging due to the presence mucosal edema, inflammation angulations ureter. Improvements in ureteroscopic technology increased efficacy safety ureteroscopy (URS) as a first-line treatment The objective this retrospective study evaluate URS for management ≥ 10 mm. Material methods: medical records 700 patients with stones, who underwent intracorporeal lithotripsy between January 2016 Аpril 2024 were...
Introduction: Prostate cancer is a prevalent and potentially lethal malignancy affecting men worldwide. To enhance early detection accurate risk stratification, various diagnostic methods have been developed. diagnoses include digital rectal examination, prostate-specific antigen analysis prostate biopsy in case suspected. Total (tPSA) widely used, first line acceptable biomarker for screening. Rising tPSA levels cannot be definitive diagnosis further examination needed. Мagnetic resonance...
Introduction: Ureteral strictures become more common nowadays. Endoscopic laser ureterotomy is a minimally invasive procedure that increasingly used for the management of ureteral strictures. Objective: The objective our study to evaluate efficacy and safety Holmium endoureterotomy in treatment with length ≤ 10 mm. Material methods: A retrospectively collected database 21 patients who unederwent uretereral mm between January 2019 2022 Clinic Endourology SWL, Military Medical Academy, Sofia,...
Introduction: Diagnosis of prostate cancer remains a challenge, requiring methods that balance accuracy and invasiveness. To improve early diagnosis risk assessment for clinically significant disease, new diagnostic have been developed implemented over time. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become the standard among techniques diagnosing cancer. The standardized system Prostate Imaging Reporting Data System (PI-RADS) categorizes lesions suspected based on MRI results, determining...
