Unlabelled: Study Type - Therapy (case series).
Level Of Evidence: 4.
Objective: To evaluate the results in terms of functional results and morbidity of Z-shaped ileal neobladder performed in a single center.
Objective: The primary objective of this study was to describe the course of a series of grade 2 noninvasive urothelial carcinomas and to determine their prognosis by establishing recurrence, progression and mortality rates The initial histological and endoscopic characteristics were analysed in order to identify risk factors for recurrence and progression towards detrusor invasion.
Material And Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on 75 patients with initially grade 2 superficial bladder tumours. Tumours were initially multifocal in 47% of cases and were classified as follows: 52 pTa tumours (69%) and 23 pT1 tumours (31%).
Purpose: After cystectomy for bladder cancer, when pelvic lymph nodes are positive, bladder replacement remains controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of patients who underwent neobladder replacement despite bladder cancer metastasis to the regional lymph nodes.
Materials And Methods: From 1981 to 1997, a total of 504 consecutive cystectomies for bladder cancer were performed at our institution.
Objectives: To assess in a prospective study whether extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) using a standard radioscopic location lithotriptor is effective in the treatment of Peyronie's disease.
Methods: Fifty-four patients were included in this prospective study. Before and after treatment, the angulation was calculated by auto-photography.
