Safety profile of treatment with greenlight versus Thulium Laser for benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Objective: The major strengths of surgical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia with laser are reduced morbidity compared to endoscopic resection. No studies analysed the different risk of intra/peri-operative events between patients undergoing Thulium and GreenLight procedures.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 100 consecutive cases undergoing GreenLight vaporization and Thulium procedures performed during the learning curve of two expert endoscopic surgeons.

Congenital cysts of the lower male genitourinary tract: a disorder with various treatment approaches and pitfalls-case report.

Background: The cysts of the male pelvic floor represent a rare clinical entity. Their origin is linked to an altered development of paramesonephric and mesonephric ducts during embryogenesis.

Case Presentation: We report our experience regarding two patients presenting cysts of the ejaculatory system treated with open and mini-invasive surgery.

Percutaneous and endoscopic combined treatment of bladder and renal lithiasis in mitrofanoff conduit.

Introduction And Objectives: Treatment of bulky lithiasis in continent and non-continent urine storage reservoirs has been widely described and debated (1). Less is known about the optimal treatment in patients with a Mitrofanoff conduit. If voiding in these patients is incomplete, leading to recurrent symptomatic bacteriuria, formation of large lithiasis can be a common long-term complication (2, 3).

The use of endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery as an additional approach to upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma: Our Experience.

Introduction: With increasing experience and advancing technology, endoscopy for UTUC has become more common. Endoscopic Combined Intrarenal Surgery (ECIRS) could be an option for patients with low-grade and large-volume UTUC that could be either anatomically or technically challenging to manage by retrograde flexible ureterorenoscopy.

Materials And Methods: In this video, we describe, step by step, our ECIRS technique as applied to two selected clinical cases of UTUC.
