Female sexual function after transobturator tape in women with urodynamic stress urinary incontinence.

We evaluate quality of life and sexual function before and after transobturator tape procedure (TOT) using the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire (ICIQ -SF) and Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). Between 2008 and 2013, 92 patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) underwent TOT procedure. A total of 81 patients were sexual active and enrolled in the study.

Relationship between plasma melatonin levels and the efficacy of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors treatment on premature ejaculation.

Objectives: To examine the relationship between premature ejaculation and plasma melatonin levels, and assess the efficacy of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors in treating premature ejaculation.

Methods: A total of 60 men with lifelong premature ejaculation and 40 healthy male controls were included in the present study. For each participant, a medical history was obtained, a physical examination was carried out, and intravaginal ejaculation latency time and melatonin levels were measured.

Ureteroscopic treatment of multiple distal-ureteral stones.

Background And Purpose: Ureteroscopic intracorporeal lithotripsy for solitary distal-ureteral stones may be considered a first-line therapy. However, few reports that mention ureteroscopic procedures for multiple ureteral stones were found in the literature. Retrospectively, we reviewed our patients who were treated by ureteroscopy for multiple distal-ureteral stones.
