Objective: To find a useful tool for estimating the minimum number of metaphase II (MII) oocytes needed to obtain at least one euploid blastocyst according to female age.
Design: Retrospective analysis of in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment cycles with preimplantational genetic testing for aneuploidies (PGT-A) performed over 5 years in IVIRMA Valencia (Spain), January 2017-March 2022. Approval from the Institutional Review Board of IVI Valencia (2204-VLC-040-CR).
Objectives: To study the safety and efficacy of a personalised indocyanine-guided pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) against extended PLND (ePLND) during radical prostatectomy (RP).
Patients And Methods: Patients who were candidates for RP and lymphadenectomy, with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer (PCa) according to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines, were enrolled in this randomised clinical trial. Randomisation was made 1:1 to indocyanine green (ICG)-PLND (only ICG-stained LNs) or ePLND (obturator fossa, external, internal, and common iliac and presacral LNs).
Introduction And Objectives: Extended Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection (ePLND) remains the most accurate technique for the detection of occult lymph node metastases (LNMs) in prostate cancer (CaP) patients. Here we aim to examine whether free-Indocyanine Green (F-ICG) could accurately assess the pathological nodal (pN) status in CaP patients during real-time lymphangiography as a potential replacement for ePLND.
Materials And Methods: 219 consecutive patients undergoing F-ICG-guided PLND, ePLND and radical prostatectomy (RP) for clinical-localized CaPwere included in this prospective single-center study.
: Patients with seminal vesicle invasion (SVI) are a highly heterogeneous group. Prognosis can be affected by many clinical and pathological characteristics. Our aim was to study whether bilateral SVI (bi-SVI) is associated with worse oncological outcomes.
