Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of two ultrasound techniques, resistive index (RI) and shear wave elastography (SWE), in detecting chronic changes in kidney transplants compared to biopsy results.* -
- Conducted with 154 kidney transplant patients, the research found that SWE demonstrated higher sensitivity and specificity than RI for identifying chronic allograft damage, with SWE achieving an impressive diagnostic accuracy of 95.45% versus RI's 81.16%.* -
- The findings suggest that SWE may be a more reliable method for early detection of kidney transplant complications, potentially improving patient care and outcomes.*

J Coll Physicians Surg Pak
April 2024
Objective: To determine the outcomes of robotic surgeries using the Da Vinci robotic surgical system (DVSS) at Pakistan's largest urological tertiary healthcare system.
Study Design: Descriptive study. Place and Duration of the Study: Department of Minimally Invasive and Robotic Surgery, Division of Urology, Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation, Karachi, Pakistan, from March 2017 to December 2021.
Introduction: Exposure to trace elements has been associated with ovarian response in experimental studies. We conducted a hypothesis-generating study of associations between ovarian follicular fluid (FF) trace elements and measures of ovarian response among women using in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Methods: We collected ovarian FF specimens from 56 women.
Article Synopsis
- - UPJO is a serious kidney condition that requires early diagnosis and treatment; the study focuses on the effectiveness of robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP) for treating this condition.
- - Conducted at the Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplant, the study involved 46 patients, analyzing early post-operative outcomes like operative time, hospital stay, and blood loss after RALP surgery performed by an experienced surgeon.
- - Results showed favorable outcomes, with a mean hospital stay of 1.19 days and total operative time averaging 64.58 minutes, supporting RALP as a superior technique compared to traditional methods in treating UPJO.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Kidney: A Large Case Series.
Oncology (Williston Park)
June 2023
Objectives: We present our experience with and data about a very rare neoplasm of the kidney, squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
Methods: A total of 14 patients with a diagnosis of SCC were identified on the basis of a retrospective analysis of medical records of patients who underwent surgery for renal cancers between 2015 and 2021 at the Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation. IBM SPSS v25 was used to record and analyze data.
