Objective: Wound dehiscence is associated with high morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors and comorbidities in the patients undergoing radical cystectomy with early postoperative wound dehiscence.
Methods: In all, 539 patients with bladder cancer who underwent radical cystectomy and urinary diversion at a single center between January 2008 and January 2022 were included in the study.
Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of bony pelvic parameters measured by computerized tomography (CT) for use in the estimation of the likely technical difficulties that may be encountered when performing open radical prostatectomy (RP) for localized prostate cancer.
Material And Methods: One hundred patients, undergoing open RP for localized prostate cancer, were evaluated between October 2016 to November 2018. All operations were performed by the same experienced surgeon.
Aim: The presence of intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P) in radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens correlates with adverse prognostic factors such as worse biochemical recurrence-free survival, higher grade and stage disease. This study aimed to investigate the effect of IDC-P in radical prostatectomy specimens on short-term oncological outcomes.
Materials And Methods: Patients who underwent RP at our clinic for prostate cancer between May 2016 and November 2019 were included in the study.
Objective: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic disrupted all routine health care services and resulted in a significant reconfiguration of urologic cancer services and care pathways across the globe. This study aimed to retrospectively determine the pandemic's impact on the urologic oncological surgery outcomes at a high-volume referral center.
Materials And Methods: We compared the number and histopathological outcomes of urologic oncological procedures in a referral center coded during the pandemic and data of the period before the pandemic as control.
