Purpose: This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the prognostic value of T1 histo-anatomic substaging (T1a/T1b) for high grade (HG) non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) over a large single-centre cohort.

Materials And Methods: Patients with primary HG T1 NMIBC were identified from our Institutional database, between 2011 and 2022. Data from diagnosis to repeated transurethral resection of bladder tumour (RE-TURBT), bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) treatment and follow-up were collected.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to develop a machine-learning model to predict the risk of sepsis following retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) for kidney stones, including data from 1,552 patients across 16 centers.* -
  • Inclusion criteria for patients were specified, and certain conditions like concomitant ureteral stones were excluded, with antibiotic treatments used where applicable.* -
  • The Random Forest algorithm outperformed other machine-learning models, achieving high precision, recall, and accuracy, and a web-based version of the predictive tool is available for use in clinical settings.*

Background And Objective: The preferable technique for orthotopic bladder substitution after radical cystectomy is debated. The aim of this study was to describe our technique of a stapled W-shaped ileal neobladder and assess the complications and functional results in 100 patients. treated from December 2009 to July 2022.

Sepsis is the most serious complication of flexible ureteroscopy (F-URS) and laser lithotripsy. We assessed the influence of positive stone culture (SC) on major infectious complications (sepsis, septic shock). This prospective study enrolled adult patients deemed suitable for F-URS and laser lithotripsy from nine centers (January 2022-August 2023).
