Discrepancies in Gleason score between needle core biopsy and radical prostatectomy specimens with correlation between clinical and pathological staging.

Background: The studies have shown that GS given after assessment of the entire prostate gland on the radical prostatectomy specimen may differ from GS given after examination of a small sample from needle core biopsy. We conducted this study to assess discrepancies in the Gleason score between NCB and RP specimens and to find out the correlation between the clinical stage and pathological stage.

Methods: The study included 174 patients with carcinoma prostate which underwent robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).

Incidental detection of rare vascular variation during pyeloplasty and its clinical implication - A case report.

Crossing vessels is one of the important causes of pelviureteric junction obstruction (PUJO). Accessory lower polar vessels are commonly seen with congenital PUJO, but they are not always the cause of obstruction. We incidentally encountered a variation in the lower polar crossing vessel while doing laparoscopic pyeloplasty in a patient with congenital PUJO.

Assessing pentafecta outcomes post radical cystectomy: A tertiary care center study.

Introduction: Bladder cancer is a common and serious disease globally, often requiring radical cystectomy as the preferred treatment. However, this procedure carries substantial risks and complications. To evaluate its success, pentafecta, a five-component measure, was introduced.

Correlation of urinary continence recovery with various factors after Robot assisted radical prostatectomy.

Background: In addition to ensuring cancer control, prevention of incontinence which significantly impact patients' quality of life, is also an important issue in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) operations. In this study, we aimed to find the correlation of urinary continence recovery with various factors after Robot assisted radical prostatectomy.

Methods: This study included 162 patients treated with RARP with perioperative data and at least 1 year of follow-up.

Extrarenal calyces in a pelvic kidney with ureteropelvic junction obstruction in an adult male - A rare case report.

Extrarenal calyces (ERC) is a rare renal anomaly. First described in 1925, and till now, >60 cases have been reported worldwide. The association of ERC in ectopic kidneys with ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is a very rare presentation.
