Retrospective evaluation of male slings for patients with urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy--one surgeon's experience.

Introduction: Stress urinary incontinence is one of the main complications after radical prostatectomy (RP) with a significant percentage of patients reporting bothersome incontinence > 1 year after surgery.

Objective: Assessment of one surgeon's results in surgical treatment of urinary stress incontinence of patients with radical prostatectomy applying transobturator and suprapubic slings.

Patients And Metods: From February 2010-February 2014, 20 patients, age 57-76, with moderate and severe stress urinary incontinence (SUI) were treated surgically.

Rare locations of metastastatic renal cell carcinoma: a presentation of three cases.

Introduction: Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) frequently spreads not only to neighboring lymph nodes, but also to distant organs, including the lungs, liver, bones and brain.

Case Report: We presented three cases of RCC with colon metastasis. In the first, 63-year-old patient, after left nephrectomy followed with lyphadenectomy in paraaortic lymph node, left hemicolectomy was done due to RCC metastasis in rectosigmoid colon.

Urodynamic characteristics of the modified orthotopic ileal neobladder.

Background/aim: Radical cystectomy is the method of choice in management of muscle invasive, organ-confined tumors of the bladder (T2-T4, N0-Nx). The most frequent continent orthotopic urinary diversion after radical cystectomy is the ileal neobladder. A modified technique consists of using a shorter segment of the terminal ileum than the standard technique, around 30 cm.

The importance of physical therapy in the postoperative period after total cystectomy of bladder carcinoma.

Unlabelled: The aim of this study is to evaluate the results and complications after radical cystectomy due to carcinoma of the bladder and to point out the significance of post-operative physical treatment and rehabilitation of these patients.

Material And Method: In the period of 3 years (2007-2010), at the Urological Clinic in Belgrade, we performed 195 total cystectomies for invasive bladder carcinoma with the use of different types of urinary diversion. The operation was performed in 162 men (83%) and 33 women (17%).

Usage of a Trans-Obturator-Tape (T.O.T.) "outside-in" approach in surgical treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.

Objective: The aim of the study was to analyzed the efficacy and safety of a new minimally invasive surgical procedure using the Trans-Obturator-Tape with"outside-in" approach for treatment female stress urinary incontinence.

Patients And Methods: 31 women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) associated with urethral hypermobility, underwent the T.O.

Short ileal segment for orthotopic neobladder: a feasibility study.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to present the construction of a neobladder with a modified pouch technique using 25-35 cm of terminal ileum.

Methods: Thirty-eight patients whose pouch was constructed from 25-35 cm of terminal ileum (short pouch [SP] group) were prospectively evaluated vs 41 patients whose pouch was constructed from 50-70 cm of terminal ileum (long pouch group). Pouch volume, post-void residual (PVR) volume, need for catheterization, continence and voiding frequency were evaluated at 3 and 12 months after surgery.
