Selective Angioembolisation of Iatrogenic Renal Artery Pseudoaneurysms Following Minimally Invasive Urological Procedures: A Single Centre Case Series.

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to report our centre's experience using selective angioembolisation in the treatment of iatrogenic renal artery pseudoaneurysms (RAP) following minimally invasive urological procedures.

Methods: Our retrospective analysis included four consecutive patients treated with angioembolisation for iatrogenic RAP between October 2016 and October 2021. Data on demographics, minimally invasive urological intervention, clinical features, imaging findings, embolization procedure and perioperative details were collected.

Robotic nephroureterectomy in a horseshoe kidney for upper tract urothelial carcinoma.

Upper tract urothelial carcinoma represents a small proportion (5%-10%) of all urothelial cancers. Although there are several management options, in undifferentiated or high-risk cases, surgery in the form of nephroureterectomy is the gold standard. Horseshoe kidney is the most common congenital renal fusion anomaly affecting 1 in 400-600 patients.

Delayed presentation of postcaesarean section vesicouterine fistula repaired robotically.

A premenopausal patient in her late forties presented with a 15-year history of urinary incontinence starting shortly after a caesarean section performed for her fourth delivery and more recently associated episodic light haematuria and passage of clots per vagina. The haematuria was intermittent over several months and associated with per-vaginal bleeding. She had symptomatic anaemia.

Renal pelvicalyceal rupture secondary to extraperitoneal pelvic packing (EPP) in the unstable trauma patient.

Presented here is the case of an 86-year-old man who was found to have right-sided pelvicalyceal rupture and anuric renal failure, secondary to obstructive uropathy caused by life-saving extraperitoneal pelvic packing (EPP) in the settling of severe trauma. In efforts to control haemorrhage in this haemodynamically unstable patient, EPP placement deviated from the recognised method of three extraperitoneal packs bilaterally with seven surgical packs placed. Progress postoperative imaging revealed right-sided hydroureteronephrosis with obstruction evident at the level of the extraperitoneal pelvic packs, identified by delayed contrast excretion from the preceding CT angiography imaging.

Unusual case of urethral steinstrasse following laser cystolitholapaxy.

Urethral steinstrasse is a rare finding. This case describes a 35-year-old man presenting with urethral steinstrasse 4 weeks following laser cystolitholapaxy of a large bladder stone.

Urological complications after cystectomy as part of pelvic exenteration are higher than that after cystectomy for primary bladder malignancy.

Background: Total cystectomy and subsequent reconstruction of the urinary tract may be required for primary malignancy of the bladder, or in the context of multi-visceral resection for more advanced pelvic tumors. Complications following urinary diversion are a major source of morbidity, particularly in pelvic exenteration (PE) patients.

Methods: All patients who underwent radical cystectomy alone or during PE at a single tertiary referral centre between 2008 and 2014 were reviewed.
