The prevalence and topographic distribution of penile calcification in a large cohort: a retrospective cross-sectional study.

The prevalence of penile calcification in the population remains uncertain. This retrospective multicenter study aimed to determine the prevalence and characteristics of penile calcification in a large cohort of male patients undergoing non-contrast pelvic tomography. A total of 14 545 scans obtained from 19 participating centers between 2016 and 2022 were retrospectively analyzed within a 3-months period.

Analysis of risk factors of abdominal wound dehiscence after radical cystectomy.

Objective: Wound dehiscence is associated with high morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors and comorbidities in the patients undergoing radical cystectomy with early postoperative wound dehiscence.

Methods: In all, 539 patients with bladder cancer who underwent radical cystectomy and urinary diversion at a single center between January 2008 and January 2022 were included in the study.

The Influence of the Intraductal Carcinoma of the Prostate on the Short-Term Oncological Outcomes.

Aim: The presence of intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P) in radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens correlates with adverse prognostic factors such as worse biochemical recurrence-free survival, higher grade and stage disease. This study aimed to investigate the effect of IDC-P in radical prostatectomy specimens on short-term oncological outcomes.

Materials And Methods: Patients who underwent RP at our clinic for prostate cancer between May 2016 and November 2019 were included in the study.

How Does the COVID-19 Pandemic Influence Histopathological Outcomes for Urologic Cancers?

Objective:  The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic disrupted all routine health care services and resulted in a significant reconfiguration of urologic cancer services and care pathways across the globe. This study aimed to retrospectively determine the pandemic's impact on the urologic oncological surgery outcomes at a high-volume referral center.

Materials And Methods: We compared the number and histopathological outcomes of urologic oncological procedures in a referral center coded during the pandemic and data of the period before the pandemic as control.

Postchemotherapy retroperitoneal residual mass resection for germ cell testicular tumors: a single-center experience.

Objective: Postchemotherapy retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (PC-RPLND) plays an important role in the management of advanced germ cell testicular tumors. Bilateral template lymph node dissection is considered a standard treatment in postchemotherapy residual masses; however, modified unilateral templates have gained acceptance in patients with unilateral residual disease. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate the perioperative and oncological outcomes of the patients with advanced testicular cancer who underwent unilateral modified template PC-RPLND in our center.
