To assess the presence of testicular asymmetry and currently used threshold values in varicocoele management a healthy adolescent population.We conducted an observational cross-sectional study from April 2015 until December 2016 which we recruited 539 boys aged 11-16 years. A clinical examination including size measurement by ultrasonography was performed. Testicular volume (TV) calculated using Lambert formula (length × width height 0.71). The Atrophy Index (TAI) [(TV right - TV...
To assess clinical follow-up data over 24 months, comparing the use of a curved vs straight stylet in patients undergoing sacral neuromodulation using standardized tined lead implantation technique.We conducted single tertiary-centre, prospective study between August 2013 and June 2015 involving 40 with overactive bladder 15 non-obstructive urinary retention refractory to first-line treatment. The primary outcome was successful procedure according intention-to-treat analyses at 12 months....
A double J stent (DJS) is the main therapy for ureteral obstruction when conservative treatment fails. Antegrade migration in bladder – or retrograde ureter are well-known complications. We present a case with intravascular of DJS into inferior vena cava. Inferior venocavagraphy confirmed position stent, and thrombus formation was excluded at its tip. The retracted endoscopically. After procedure, limited contrast leakage seen perforation site on venography. current available literature...
Abstract Background In sacral neuromodulation (SNM) patients, it is thought the bellows response elicited upon spinal nerve stimulation reflex‐mediated. Therefore mechanism of action SNM considered to be at or supraspinal level. These ideas need challenged. Objective To identify neural pathway stimulation. Design, Setting, and Participants Single tertiary center, prospective study (December 2017‐June 2019) including 29 patients with overactive bladder refractory first‐line treatment....
To assess the evolution of Testicular Atrophy Index (TAI) in adolescent boys with and without a left varicocele special attention for currently postulated cut-off value 20%.During 2015-2019, 364 aged 11-16 years were recruited. Genital examination scrotal ultrasonography repeatedly performed (≥4 month intervals). volume (TV) was calculated using Lambert formula (length × width height 0.71). TAI formula: [(TVright - TVleft)/TVlargest (right, left)] 100.The final study population comprised 239...
Purpose Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is an established minimally invasive therapy for functional disorders of the pelvic organs in which electrodes are stimulated proximity sacral spinal nerves. Reprogramming regularly required and based on sensory response. This study assesses repeatability a chart grading system to enable more objective assessment response upon electrode stimulation. Material Methods In 26 SNM patients, with OAB or NOUR, was done using threshold (ST) 1 cm 2 coordinates,...
Abstract Purpose To assess the activation of different parts pelvic floor muscles (PFM) upon electrical stimulation sacral spinal nerves while comparing lead electrode configurations. Material and Methods PFM electromyography (EMG) was recorded using an intravaginal multiple array probe with 12 electrodes pairs, which allows to make a distinction between sides depths floor. In addition concentric needle EMG external anal sphincter performed exclude far‐field recording. A medtronic InterStim...
