Objective: To describe our institution's experience with Boari flap ureteral reconstruction, specifically focusing on the development of postoperative lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS).
Methods: A retrospective review of all Boari flaps performed at our institution between 2013 and 2023 was performed, excluding patients with urothelial carcinoma and males, given the frequency of LUTS from benign prostatic hyperplasia. Primary outcome was the development of new onset LUTS and subsequent treatment.
Introduction: In the management of penile fractures, immediate surgical repair has resulted in better outcomes when compared with a conservative approach; however, there is currently no consensus on the treatment of patients presenting beyond the immediate period (>24 hours) following injury.
Objectives: To examine the latest literature on management strategies in penile fracture and propose an optimal algorithm for the treatment of patients with delayed presentation.
Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted following the PRISMA-P 2020 guidelines.
Objective: To investigate the safety, efficacy, and surgical approach of percutaneous bladder calculi removal in adult patients with prior lower urinary tract reconstruction utilizing bowel using a single-institution database.
Methods: Twenty patients with prior history of lower urinary tract reconstruction (continent cutaneous urinary reservoir, augmentation enterocystoplasty with catheterizable channel, or ileal neobladder) who underwent percutaneous cystolitholapaxy from 2014 to 2020 were identified from an IRB-approved database. Analysis of patient demographics, operative details, stone composition, stone-free rates, recurrence, and associated complications was performed.
