Acute urinary retention in children: causes and the role of bladder catheterization and ultrasonogram.

Background: Acute urinary retention in children is uncommon and can be related to several causes. The role of abdominal ultrasound and catheterization is controversial. We aimed to identify the most common causes of acute urinary retention in children, focusing, particularly on the role of bladder catheterization and the diagnostic value of acute ultrasound.

Could a better understanding of the underlying pathophysiologies lead to more informed treatment choices in patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction due to an acontractile or underactive detrusor? ICI-RS 2023.

Introduction: The underlying pathophysiology behind a diagnosis of acontractile or underactive detrusor at invasive urodynamics is very heterogeneous. Lack of etiological classification currently limits the possibility of stratifying therapy.

Methods: This subject was discussed at a think-tank on the subject at the International Consultation on Incontinence-Research Society held in Bristol, June 2023.

Where is the testis? The role of ultrasound and diagnostic laparoscopy for Crossed Testicular Ectopia (CTE): Case report and review of literature.

Crossed Testicular Ectopia (CTE) or transverse testicular ectopia is an anecdotic urogenital anomaly in which both testes are located on the same side, generally associated with a patent processus vaginalis (PPV). The condition can be detected by ultrasound. Nevertheless, the diagnosis is often missed preoperatively and CTE is recognized intraoperatively.

Natural History of Patients with Prostate MRI Likert 1-3 and Development of RosCaP: a Multivariate Risk Score for Clinically Significant Cancer.

Introduction: Clinically significant prostate cancer (csCaP) with Gleason ≥3 + 4 is found in 10% negative prebiopsy multiparametric (mp) MRI cases and varies widely for equivocal mpMRI cases. The objective of this study was to investigate long-term outcomes of patients with negative and equivocal mpMRIs and to develop a predictive score for csCaP risk stratification in this group.

Patients And Methods: Patients who underwent an upfront mpMRI between May 2015 and March 2018 with an MRI score Likert 1 to 3 were included in the study.

Conservative treatment of monolateral giant renal angiomyolipoma in a patient with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC): A case report.

Tuberous sclerosis complex has several renal manifestations like angiomyolipomas. We report a case of a giant AML and discuss its diagnosis and treatment. A 42-year-old woman was admitted to emergency department due to flank pain and hematuria.
