[CASE OF LOW-RISK PROSTATE CANCER WITH LYMPH NODE METASTASIS IN THE ANTERIOR PROSTATIC FAT TISSUE].

A 78-year-old man with a prostate-specific antigen level of 10 ng/mL was referred to our hospital. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System category of 5 in the apex transition zone. Transrectal and transperineal prostate needle biopsies were performed at a total of 20 sites.

Evaluating the efficacy of a low-cost cognitive MRI-targeted prostate biopsy protocol: is there still a role for lower volume centers in the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) version 2 era?

Purpose: MRI-targeted biopsy has improved prostate biopsy yield. However, cost constraints have made it difficult for many institutions to implement the newer methods. We evaluated the performance of a low-cost cognitive-targeting biopsy protocol based on 1.

Changes in urinary parameters after oral administration of potassium-sodium citrate and magnesium oxide to prevent urolithiasis.

Objectives: To examine urinary parameters among normal individuals and patients with calcium oxalate (CaOx) stones after oral administration of potassium-sodium citrate (KNa-Cit) and magnesium oxide (MgO). Urinary citrate and magnesium have been known as the inhibitors of CaOx stone formation. Supplementation with potassium-magnesium citrate prevents the recurrence of CaOx stones.
