Introduction: We present a rare case of long-term survival following metastasectomy for lumbar metastasis with growing teratoma syndrome.

Case Presentation: An 18-year-old man presented with left scrotal mass and lumbago. Alpha-fetoprotein was elevated to 648.

Article Synopsis
  • There was an increased risk of positive resection margins (RMs) in patients who underwent robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) after having systematic prostate biopsies.
  • The study evaluated 61 patients who had MRI-ultrasonography fusion and systematic biopsies, and found that the RM-positive group generally had a higher clinical stage and a greater proportion of positive biopsy results.
  • Logistic regression indicated that the positivity rate of systematic biopsies was a significant risk factor for RM positivity, suggesting that these biopsies might be important for assessing the feasibility of preserving the neurovascular bundles during surgery.

Objectives: To compare the detection rates for clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa; grade group 2 or higher disease) using MRI-targeted biopsy (MRI-TB) versus systematic biopsy (SB) or their combination, and identify risk factors for detecting csPCa in MRI-TB with systematic transrectal (TR)/transperineal (TP) biopsies (sTR/TP-bx) and MRI-TB with sTP-bx.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 216 patients who underwent MRI-TB with SB at our hospital between September 2020 and December 2023 and compared clinical characteristics for patients with and without prostate cancer.

Results: csPCa was detected in 132 (61.

Although some studies have reported kidney transplantation for end-stage kidney disease after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, few have reported kidney transplantation after ABO-incompatible hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In this report, we describe a case of kidney transplantation after major ABO-incompatible HSCT and reviewed previous reports of kidney transplantation after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. A 21-year-old male patient received major ABO-incompatible hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from an unrelated donor for B-lymphoblastic lymphoma.

This study evaluated the effects of docetaxel and androgen receptor signaling inhibitors as second-line treatments in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer after androgen receptor signaling inhibitors as first-line treatment. This study retrospectively evaluated the clinical outcomes of second-line treatment with docetaxel or androgen receptor signaling inhibitor in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer who received first-line treatment with androgen receptor signaling inhibitors. Clinical backgrounds and outcomes were compared between docetaxel and androgen receptor signaling inhibitors as second-line treatment.
