Criteria and indicators to evaluate quality of care in genitourinary tumour boards.

Purpose: Genitourinary (GU) multidisciplinary tumour boards (GUMTBs) are key components of patient care, as they might lead to changes in treatment plan, improved survival, and increased adherence to guidelines. However, there are no guidelines on how GUMTBs should operate or how to assess their quality of performance.

Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted to identify criteria and indicators to evaluate quality in GUMTBs.

Inter-observer variability in male pelvic-floor MRI measurements that might predict post-prostatectomy incontinence.

Introduction: Current studies are focusing on the relationship between anatomical variables in preoperative prostate MRI and the development of post-prostatectomy incontinence (PPI). Nevertheless, there is little evidence regarding the reliability of these measurements. The objective of this study was to analyze the concordance between urologists and radiologists for anatomical measurements that might be PPI predictors.

Fontan-associated liver disease.

Objective: To review the pathophysiology of Fontan-associated liver disease, its histologic changes, and its radiologic manifestations.

Conclusions: Fontan-associated liver disease is the result of a set of structural and functional changes in the liver that occur secondary to hemodynamic changes brought about by Fontan surgery. The radiologic manifestations of Fontan-associated liver disease consist of changes in the size and shape of the liver, alterations in the signal intensity or pattern of enhancement, abnormalities in the vascular structures, and focal lesions, which include benign nodules with intense uptake in the arterial phase and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Complicated With Aorto-Left Retroaortic Renal Vein Fistula.

We present the case of a male with a fistula from an infrarenal aortic aneurysm to the left renal vein resolved with an endovascular prosthesis. Few cases have been reported in the literature.
