Purpose: The aim of this retrospective study is to assess the long-term outcomes and safety of laparoscopic simple prostatectomy.
Material And Methods: Between 2012 and 2019 80 patients with prostates volumes ≥ 80 mL were treated with laparoscopic simple prostatectomy at our department. Uroflowmetry, post void residual volume and standardized questionnaires were assessed pre- and postoperatively.
We describe a gonorrhoea case with ceftriaxone plus high-level azithromycin resistance. In April 2022, an Austrian heterosexual male was diagnosed with gonorrhoea after sexual intercourse with a female sex worker in Cambodia. Recommended treatment with ceftriaxone (1 g) plus azithromycin (1.

Objective: To evaluate the correlation between the tumor markers β-HCG, AFP, PLAP, and LDH from the VT and peripheral blood as well as their significance in predicting tumor recurrence and tumor stage.
Methods: Patients with testicular cancer undergoing orchiectomy were studied retrospectively over a period of 20 years.
Purpose: To detect possible effects of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans on the function of an InterStim Twin sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) device and on patient's health. There is no authorization for MRI scans in InterStim Twin SNS at all.
Material And Methods: 10 patients with Interstim Twin sacral nerve stimulator implants underwent a singular MRI scan.
Aim: The aim of this study was to assess possible impacts of multiple magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans on the function of InterStim™ sacral neurostimulator systems (SNS; Medtronic Inc.) devices and on patient's safety.
Methods: Over the course of 17 years, a total of 16 patients required 72 MRI examinations in various parts of the body.
