Management of urosymphyseal fistula and pubic bone osteomyelitis: Description of a new surgical technique by cystectomy, urinary diversion and pelvic filling flap by unilateral pedicled myocutaneous vertical rectus abdominus muscle flap.

Pubic bone osteomyelitis is a rare infection, mostly related to urinary fistula. The published data about the medical or surgical management of this type of infection is relatively poor. In this case study of three patients, we describe our surgical technique for the management of urosymphyseal fistula complicated with pubic bone infection using pelvic filling flap by unilateral pedicled myocutaneous vertical rectus abdominus muscle flap.

Bicentric retrospective study comparing the postoperative outcomes of patients treated surgically for bladder stones with or without concomitant surgery for BPH.

Purpose: To compare the postoperative outcomes of male patients who underwent bladder stone (BS) removal, with or without concomitant benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) surgery.

Patients And Methods: All men aged > 50 years who underwent BS removal at two French university hospitals between 2009 and 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Four binary outcome criteria were identified during the follow-up: early postoperative complications, stone recurrence, subsequent surgery for BS or BPH, and late surgical complications.

Treatment of UTIs Due to Carbapenemase-Producers: How to Use New Antibiotic Drugs? A Narrative Review.

Background: is one of the bacteria most frequently causing health care-associated urinary tract infections, and increasingly incriminating carbapenemase producers (KPCp). Most infections caused by KPCp are nosocomial and might cause serious issues, even leading to death in half of the reported cases. Our aim was to identify the best strategy, based on available scientific data, for the use of new antibiotic treatments to manage KPCp UTIs.
