Preoperative pyuria predicts the presence of high-grade bladder carcinoma in patients with bladder tumors.

Introduction: Preoperative identification of high-grade bladder cancer presence can optimize patient management. The aim of this study was to assess the association between preoperative pyuria and the pathological features of bladder cancer.

Material And Methods: This retrospective analysis enrolled 943 patients undergoing transurethral resection of a bladder tumor.

Prediction of the risk of surgical complications in patients undergoing monopolar transurethral resection of bladder tumour - a prospective multicentre observational study.

Introduction: The aim of the study was to identify predictors of surgical complications of transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT).

Material And Methods: We prospectively recruited 983 consecutive patients undergoing TURBT within 7 months in six academic institutions. All patients were followed up from the surgery up to 30 days postoperatively with at least one telephone contact at the end of the observation.

Transvesical laparoendosopic single-site surgery as a valuable option to remove eroded materials from the bladder: single-center experience and a review of the literature.

Introduction: Currently, polypropylene materials are used widely for the treatment of various urogynecologic disorders. This type of treatment can be complicated, although rarely, with erosions of the polypropylene implants into the bladder or the urethra. There is no established treatment for such complications.

Single-session Transvesical Laparoendoscopic 1-Port Removal of 2 Bladder Diverticula in a Female Patient.

Background: Bladder diverticula are usually encountered in males, and they are a rarity in women, especially in the absence of obstruction. Open surgery, as well as laparoscopic or robotic, or single-port surgery have been applied successfully to remove bladder diverticula. To the best of our knowledge, no single-port diverticulectomies have been performed in women.

Endoscopic intact removal of medium-size- or multiple bladder stones with the use of transvesical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery.

Objectives: To determine the feasibility and safety of performing transvesical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (T-LESS) in patients with medium-size, hard stones or multiple stones with high burden.

Methods: In this case series study, 12 patients (11 males and one female) with a mean age of 66.8 years were operated on from February 2016 to May 2017 due to bladder calculi, using the T-LESS approach with a single-port device (Tri-Port + , Olympus, Germany).
