Aim: The aim of this study was to establish stretched penile length before surgery as a reliable determining factor of penile length after penile implant surgery.
Methods: For this study, data on penile length before and after PP surgery from three European centers was analyzed.

Article Synopsis
- This study tested an ultra-low-dose estriol vaginal gel (0.005%) to see if it could prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in postmenopausal women with genitourinary syndrome of menopause.
- The clinical trial involved 108 women who were divided into two groups: one received the estriol gel, while the other got a placebo gel, and they were monitored for 24 weeks.
- Results showed a 26% lower rate of UTIs in the group using estriol compared to placebo, indicating the gel is both safe and effective in reducing UTI occurrences and improving vaginal health.
Introduction: The aim of this study is to compare outcomes of SRP (salvage radical prostatectomy) with SCAP (salvage cryoablation of the prostate) in local radio-recurrent PCa (prostate cancer) patients.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of a multicentric European Society of Uro-technology (ESUT) database was performed. Data on patients with local recurrent PCa after radiotherapy who underwent salvage treatment were collected.
