Prospective randomized multicenter study to evaluate holmium vs. new thulium fiber laser for prostate enucleation.

Background: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) commonly causes lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in men. Holmium (HoLEP) and thulium (ThuLEP) laser enucleation are established techniques for BPH treatment. Thulium fiber laser (TFL) for prostate enucleation (ThuFLEP) shows promising outcomes.

Comparison in Detection Rate of Clinically Significant Prostate Cancer Between Microultrasound-guided Prostate Biopsy (ExactVu) and Multiparametric Resonance Imaging-guided Prostate Biopsy (Koelis System).

Objectives: To compare the detection rate of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPC) and prostate cancer (PC) and to find out the diagnostic concordance between microultrasound (mUS), a high-resolution imaging system that can identify suspicious prostate lesions and biopsy them in real time, and multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI)-guided prostate fusion biopsies.

Methods: A prospective, multicenter, single-blind, single cohort study was conducted involving 80 patients with clinically suspected PC who underwent concomitant mpMRI-guided fusion prostate biopsy (Koelis System) and mUS-guided biopsy (ExactVu System) RESULTS: The detection rate of csPC was slightly higher for image-guided fusion biopsy (21.25% vs 18.

Iterative renal transplantation: our experience on third transplants.

Purpose: To report our experience on third kidney transplantation, analyzing the complications and graft survival rates as compared to previous transplants.

Methods: Retrospective study of third renal transplants performed at our center. Outcomes were compared with a cohort of first and second transplants.

[Urinary stone imaging tests.].

Imaging in urolithiasis has a wide group of techniques, with different characteristics, limitations, and indications, which together allow the management of this prevalent pathology. Plain abdominal radiography and ultrasound are very accessible and in expensive techniques that combined present an acceptable sensitivity and specificity. They are widely used for monitoring the evolution of stone disease and for evaluation after treatments (surgery or SWL).
