Objective: To compare the outcomes of dorsal-onlay (DO) and ventral‑inlay (VI) buccal mucosal graft urethroplasty (BMGU). This is the first Clinical Trials Registry-India registered randomized clinical trial on female urethral stricture disease.
Methods: Women with USD underwent either DO-BMGU or VI-BMGU between September 2021 to July 2023.
Objective: To compare the outcomes of Ventral inlay buccal mucosal graft urethroplasty (VIBMGU) with dorsal onlay buccal mucosal graft urethroplasty (DOBMGU) for the treatment of Female urethral stricture (FUS).
Material And Methods: This study included women who underwent either VIBMGU or DOBMGU between January 2016 and June 2023. The preoperative American Urological Association (AUA) symptom scores, maximal urinary flow rate (Qmax), post-void residual volume (PVR) on ultrasonography, and length and location of the stricture were obtained from a prospectively maintained electronic database.
Purpose: To assess the long-term quality of life (QOL) and sexual function (SF) in women who underwent either dorsal on-lay (DO) or ventral inlay (VI) urethroplasty for urethral stricture disease.
Methodology: Between January 2016 and September 2022, women who underwent either dorsal on-lay (DO) or ventral inlay (VI) urethroplasties and had at least a six-month follow-up been included. Using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and WHO-QOL bref questionnaires, the QOL and SF were evaluated.
Objective: To determine the efficacy of intraoperative low-dose intravenous epinephrine infusion in improving intraoperative bleeding and perioperative outcomes of transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) surgery.
Methods: This was a double-blinded, randomized control trial in which all patients undergoing bipolar TURP were included. Patients with uncontrolled hypertension, cardiac disease, and on anticoagulants were excluded.
Objective: Postoperative pain at buccal mucosal graft (BMG) harvest site hinders the resumption of food intake. We aim to study the effect of inferior-alveolar nerve block plus buccal nerve block (IANB+BNB) on pain scores.
Methods: This was a retrospective case-control study performed in a single center from July 2021 to July 2022 (ethics committee approval: T/IM-NF/Urology/23/27).
Introduction: Among urological malignancies, the diagnosis and treatment of urinary bladder cancer (UBC) incurs the highest cost per patient. Our objective was to broaden the current understanding of how demographic, socioeconomic, education, and insurance-related factors influence UBC management.
Methods: Between January 2017 and December 2019, all patients with nonmetastatic bladder cancer were included.
Objectives: To assess the efficacy of routine use of intraoperative ultrasonography (IOUS) in improving perioperative outcomes in patients undergoing IOUS-guided laparoscopic nephrectomy (IOUS-LN) and conventional laparoscopic nephrectomy (C-LN).
Patients And Methods: This was a parallel-arm, single-blinded, randomised controlled trial (CTRI/2021/12/038906). All patients undergoing LN, either for benign or malignant causes, were included.
Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) for ureteral stones predominantly assess the pain. Despite the lack of evidence, multiple trials studying the efficacy of medical expulsive therapy (MET) have used PROs to define spontaneous stone passage (SSP). We aim to objectively evaluate the accuracy of PROs to predict successful SSP and the probability of patient's symptom resolution after stone passage.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFPatients undergo Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for the resolution of pain, but at times, other symptoms such as hematuria, dysuria, nausea, emotional distress, and anxiety are also the presenting symptoms. While pain resolution after successful surgery is generally the focus, the resolution rate of other symptoms after surgery is not described. Our study aims to determine the efficacy of PCNL for the resolution of other symptoms.

- Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a serious and fast-spreading infection affecting the skin and underlying tissue, with rare cases arising from routine procedures like core-needle biopsy.
- A 35-year-old non-lactating woman developed swelling and pus in her right breast after a core needle biopsy, leading to a diagnosis of NF.
- Prompt treatment involved surgical debridement and targeted intravenous antibiotics, resulting in a full recovery; early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to avoid severe complications like sepsis.
