Does testosterone replacement therapy increase the risk of conversion to treatment in patients with prostate cancer on active surveillance?

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the impact of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) in patients with localized prostate cancer (CaP) who elected active surveillance (AS).

Methods: A retrospective review of our CaP database was performed. Patients who received TRT while on AS were identified and were matched to a cohort of patient on AS while not on TRT (1:3) using propensity score matching.

Development and validation of nomogram to improve the specificity of multiparametric MRI for clinically significant prostate cancer.

Objective: To develop and validate a nomogram to improve the specificity of prostate imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS) on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for clinically significant prostate cancer on targeted fusion biopsy.

Methods: A retrospective review of patients who underwent fusion biopsy for PI-RADS 3-5 lesions using UroNav and Artemis systems between 2016 and 2022 was performed. Patients were divided into those with CS disease on fusion biopsy (Gleason grade group ≥2) versus those without.

Uretero-enteric Strictures After Robot Assisted Radical Cystectomy: Prevalence and Management Over Two Decades.

Introduction: To evaluate the prevalence, predictors, management, and trends for ureteroenteric strictures (UES) after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC).

Methods: Retrospective review of our RARC database was performed (2005-2022). UES was described in terms of timing, laterality, and management.
