Background: There is a lack of evidence concerning recurrent patterns and treatment of repeat recurrences for surgically treated renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Thus, the objective was to describe patterns of recurrences and subsequent treatments in patients with recurrent RCC.
Patients And Methods: We identified 525 patients who received surgical treatment for RCC at our institution in 2010-2015.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopic Anderson-Hynes pyeloplasty (RALP) for treating ureteropelvic junction obstruction using the DaVinci Si surgical system, focusing on surgical and functional results.
- A total of 194 patients were analyzed, revealing that 33% faced postoperative complications, while the 1-year success rates varied from 78% to 92% based on the underlying condition for surgery.
- The findings conclude that RALP is a safe procedure with minimal major complications and an overall acceptable success rate for treating the condition.
Background & Aim: More elderly patients are diagnosed with kidney tumors where partial nephrectomy is technically possible. We investigated whether patients ≥ 75 years old had an increased risk of complications following robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) compared to younger patients.
Methods: Retrospective, consecutive study including patients who underwent RAPN between May 2016 - April 2023.
Unlabelled: Invasion of urinary organs due to advanced colorectal cancer can comprise a surgical challenge in achieving negative resection margins. The aim of the study was to asses the outcome of patients with colorectal cancer invading the lower urinary organs.
Material And Methods: This is a cohort study that retrospectively evaluated the surgical and pathological findings after the resection of colorectal cancer with adjacent urological organs due to advanced colorectal cancer.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate transurethral microwave thermotherapy (TUMT) in the treatment of chronic urinary retention due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in patients unsuitable for surgery.
Material And Methods: The study enrolled 124 patients with chronic urinary retention due to BPH. The median age was 80 years (61-92 years).
