Endoscopic treatment of vesicoureteral reflux with non-simultaneous involuntary detrusor contraction in chronic spinal cord injury patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity.

Objective: To analyze whether it is correct to use endoscopic treatment via bulking agents of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) seen on video urodynamics with non-simultaneous involuntary detrusor contraction in chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO).

Methods: A retrospective study was performed with a cohort of 76 patients (age 48.9 ± 14.

Basaloid carcinoma of the prostate: an extremely rare tumor.

Objective: The basaloid carcinoma of the prostate (BC) is a rare malignant neoplasm arising from the basal cells of prostatic ducts and acini. We report a case and review the literature.

Methods: A 76-year-old man presented with symptoms of lower obstructive uropathy, the IPSS score was 29 and prostate specific antigen (PSA)of 0,924 ng /ml.

Prognostic factors of endoscopic treatment of vesicoureteral reflux in spinal cord injured patients.

Introduction: Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is an important complication in patients with spinal cord injury due to its frequency and morbidity. One of the most extended therapeutic options is endoscopic injection of obliteration substances in the urethral meatus.

Objective: To analyze the prognostic factors of VUR treatment using obliterative substances in patients with spinal cord injury.

Robot assisted partial nephrectomy (Da Vinci) in an angiomyolipoma associated to Wünderlich Syndrome.

Objective: To describe a case of renal angiomyolipoma treated by robotic assisted surgery.

Method And Results: We report the case of a 26 year old females patient, in the context of third month pregnancy, who was diagnosed of spontaneous self-limited retroperitoneal hemorrhage due to renal angiomyolipoma. The patient was treated conservatively until normal delivery.

[Laparoscopic simple prostatectomy (adenomectomy): experience in 59 consecutive patients].

Objective: Laparoscopic adenomectomy 150 is a minimally invasive alternative to open surgery in large prostates. Our aim is to discuss our series of 59 patients treated by means of laparoscopic adenomectomy with precise vascular control.

Materials And Methods: Between June 2003 and June 2006, a total of 59 patients with a mean age of 65.

[Laparoscopic nephrectomy in children].

Introduction: Laparoscopic nephrectomy in children, not as in the adult population, has evolved more slowly due to the misleading concept that children require small incisions and recover faster. The aim of this article is to present our experience in laparoscopic renal surgery in a paediatric population.

Material And Methods: We checked the clinical records of children that were subjected to laparoscopic renal surgery at our institution between May 1993 and September 2010.

Renal embolization and nephrectomy in a single surgical act in high-risk renal tumor pathology.

Background: Renal artery embolization is a procedure that has been shown to be useful as a concomitant treatment for the resection of large renal tumors. Over the years, preoperative renal artery embolization concomitant with nephrectomy as a treatment option has proved to be useful in reducing morbi-mortality rates; however this procedure is not exempt from significant iatrogenia. Performing this technique in conjunction with nephrectomy in a single surgical act helps to maintain the advantages of this treatment, which in turn considerably reduces the associated morbi-mortality rates.

Sertoli cell tumor, a rare testicular tumor, our experience and review of the literature.

Objective: We report two new cases of Sertoli cell testicular tumors, and a Cochrane and Medline search of cases published worldwide.

Methods: We reviewed our series of testicular tumors, the stromal tumor incidence, clinical presentation, treatment and prognosis, and the experience reflected in the literature.

Results: The prevalence of testicular tumors in our health area is of 0.

[Inverted urothelial papilloma: our clinical experience].

Unlabelled: A study of inverted urothelial papilloma in our area.

Methods: A study was conducted of inverted urothelial papillomas diagnosed at our center from January 1994 to December 2007. This was a retrospective and prospective study with a descriptive statistical analysis: urological history, reason for consultation, diagnostic methods, tumor focality, follow-up method, prognosis, and recurrence.
