Draft Genome Sequence of the Tomato Stem Endophyte Bacillus safensis TS3.

Tomato stem endophyte Bacillus safensis TS3 was isolated from surface-sterilized stems of greenhouse tomato plants. Here, we sequenced the complete genome of this strain to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying its beneficial activities.

[Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy using a technology of augmented reality: new vector of the development of operative urology?].

Aim: to evaluate the efficiency and usefulness of augmented reality (AR) technology using HoloLens glasses for laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN).

Materials And Methods: From July to December 2019, a total of 5 patients with localized kidney cancer (cT1aN0M0) underwent AR-assisted LRP. The mean RENAL score was 6 points (5-8).

[Design and materials for ureteral stents: past, present and future].

Ureteral stents have a long history of use. Their main goal is to provide effective drainage of the upper urinary tract. Morbidity is mostly related to low biocompatibility of materials, from which stents are made.

[Conservative management of rectourethral fistula: modern treatment].

Introduction: & Objectives. Rectal injury and recto-urethral fistula (RUF) formation are severe complications after surgical treatment of prostate cancer . There are various surgical techniques as well as conservative methods for the treatment of RUF.

Vesico-Acetabular Fistula and Urolithiasis in the Hip Joint Cavity due to Persistent Bladder Entrapment after Acetabular Fracture.

We report a rare case of vesico-acetabular fistula due to an improperly treated pelvic fracture with urinary stone formation in the joint cavity. This complication was related to an unrecognized mechanism of bladder wall entrapment in the acetabular floor defect during weight bearing. This situation led to several mistreatment decisions in our case and should be always considered by urologists dealing with patients after major pelvic trauma.
