Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed data from radical prostatectomies in low-risk prostate cancer patients to see how earlier biopsy results correlated with surgical outcomes.
- Out of 184 patients, 87 met the criteria for low risk, with a small number (26) classified as very low risk; results showed that undergrading and extracapsular invasion occurred in a notable percentage of patients.
- Factors such as prostate volume, PSA density, number of affected cores, and the patient's initial risk group were identified as influences on poor pathological outcomes during surgery.
Article Synopsis
- Since 2007, laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS surgery) has been used for various urological procedures like nephrectomy and prostatectomy, with advancements in instrumentation improving techniques.
- The study highlights initial experiences using the SILS Port for radical prostatectomy, allowing for simpler and more precise insertion through a single incision, which reduces risks and enhances cosmetic outcomes.
- Future research is essential to compare the intraoperative and postoperative benefits of LESS surgery with traditional laparoscopy methods.
Objectives: Although not very frequent, erectile dysfunction (ED) in patients younger than 40 years represents a disease to be kept in mind in our sanitary area. We propose a study of the various risk factors identified in this population group.
Methods: We studied a total of 736 patients with diagnosis of ED following our protocol, using as inclusion criteria being between 19 and 40 years of age.
Bladder hernia is an uncommon condition with a frequency between 0.5 and 3%, reaching the 10% between patients older than 50 years. It's more predominant in males aged between 50 and 70.
