Dorsal inlay inner preputial graft repair versus ventral-only preputial graft repair in primary distal penile hypospadias with narrow urethral plate.

Background: Tubularized incised plate (TIP) is the most common technique used for distal hypospadias repair with good outcome but with a high rate of urethral stricture. Inner preputial-free graft can be used as an inlay graft in the incised area of the narrow urethral plate, also can be used as an onlay graft for urethroplasty in hypospadias repair to avoid this complication.

Patients And Methods: A comparative prospective randomized study was conducted on two groups of hypospadias patients with narrow urethral plate.

Can trajectory nor-epinephrine infiltration reduce blood loss during percutaneous nephrolithotomy? A double-blinded randomized controlled trial.

Purpose: To determine the efficacy and safety of trajectory infiltration with 1:150 000 Norepinephrine (NE) in reducing blood loss during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).

Materials And Methods: This is a prospective randomized double-blinded placebo-controlled trial. In all, 140 consecutive patients underwent PCNL for the management of large renal calculi.

Nail Gun Penetrating Renal Injury: A Case Report.

The kidney is the genitourinary organ most affected by trauma, although the retroperitoneal location provides some protection. Renal injuries are classified according to the mechanism of trauma. Most of the penetrating renal injury cases in the literature are due to knife stabbing or handguns.

Complete Ultrasound-guided Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy in Prone and Supine Positions: A Randomized Controlled Study.

Objectives: To evaluate the safety, efficacy, adverse events, and feasibility of ultrasound guided percutaneous nephrolithotomy (US-PCNL) in the management of large renal stones in supine and prone positions and to point out the practical considerations related to these techniques in comparison with standard PCNL.

Patients And Methods: This study was conducted between August 2013 to September 2018 as a prospective randomized and controlled study. A total of 392 consecutive patients with nephrolithiasis >2 cm were randomly assigned to undergo ultrasound PCNL in prone (P-US-PCNL) (132 patients); supine position (S-US-PCNL) (129 patients) or conventional PCNL (C-PCNL) (131 patients).

Bipolar Plasmakinetic Enucleoresection of the Prostate: Our Experience with 245 Patients for 3 Years of Follow-Up.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and effectiveness of bipolar transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of the prostate (PKEP).

Patients And Methods: Between January 2010 and October 2013, 245 patients with lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia underwent transurethral enucleation of prostate using bipolar plasma vaporization energy. Patients were evaluated preoperatively by full detailed history, routine preoperative investigation digital rectal examination, serum prostate-specific antigen, abdominal and transrectal ultrasonography, and maximum flow rates (Q).
