Background: Some health care systems have set up referral trauma centers to centralize expertise to improve trauma management. There is scant and controversial evidence regarding the impact of provider's volume on the outcomes of trauma management.
Objective: To evaluate the impact of hospital volume on the outcomes of renal trauma management in a European health care system.
Background: Angiography with selective angioembolization (SAE) is safe and effective in addressing bleeding in patients with renal trauma. However, there are no validated criteria to predict SAE efficacy.
Objective: To evaluate factors predictive of SAE failure after moderate- to high-grade renal trauma.
Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare observation and early drainage by ureteral stenting in patients with blunt renal trauma and urinary extravasation.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective national multicenter study was performed including all patients admitted for renal trauma at 17 hospitals between 2005 and 2015. Patients presenting with a urinary extravasation on initial imaging were considered for inclusion.
Objective: Evaluate the safety, feasibility and efficiency of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in kidney transplant recipients, performed in high-volume French referral centres, and describe intra- and postoperative, oncological and functional outcomes.
Materials And Methods: A multicentre study was conducted on prospective RARP databases from 5 centres between 2008 and 2017. We retrospectively identified a first group (G1) of transplant patients.
Background: The aim of this study was to report the outcomes of artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) in women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) resulting from intrinsic sphincter deficiency after a follow up of 10 years.
Methods: The charts of female patients with moderate-to-severe SUI who underwent open AUS implantation between November 1994 and April 2007 were reviewed retrospectively. All patients were operated on by a single experienced surgeon through an open retropubic approach with systematic bladder incision.
Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess whether early discharge could be non-inferior to inpatient management in selected patients with low-grade renal trauma (AAST grades 1-3).
Materials And Methods: A retrospective national multicenter study was conducted including all patients who presented with renal trauma at 17 hospitals between 2005 and 2015. Exclusion criteria were iatrogenic and AAST grades 4 and 5 trauma, non-conservative initial management, Hb < 10 g/dl or transfusion within the first 24 h, and patients with concomitant injuries.

Purpose: To evaluate and compare pathological characteristics of renal cysts Bosniak IIF, III and IV in light of recent histological classification.
Patients And Methods: The French research network for kidney cancer UroCCR conducted a multicentre study on patients treated surgically for a renal cyst between 2007 and 2016. Independent radiological and centralized pathological reviews were performed for every patient.
Purpose: Iatrogenic recto-urinary fistulas are a disastrous complication of therapeutic interventions on the prostate. Many surgical approaches have been described to repair recto-urinary fistulas and no consensus has been reached regarding the better approach. The objective of this study is to present the results of our updated 20-year experience in the surgical management of recto-urinary fistula using a modified York Mason procedure.

Materials And Methods: We present the case of a 68 year-old man with localized PCa in the anterior aspect of the prostate.
The CIC-DUX4 sarcoma is a subset of the undifferentiated small round cell sarcoma family, presently recognized as a new clinicopathological entity. It is a rare and highly aggressive tumor usually arising in the soft parts of the limbs and the trunk. Only a very few cases of primitive visceral CIC-DUX4 have been hitherto described.
