Cystoscopy Accuracy in Detecting Bladder Tumors: A Prospective Video-Confirmed Study.

Background: Bladder cancer ranks as the 10th most common cancer globally. The diagnosis of bladder tumors typically involves cystoscopy.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of cystoscopy in detecting bladder tumors within a surveillance program following a bladder cancer diagnosis.

National Implementation of Simulator Training Improves Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumours in Patients.

Background: Transurethral resection of bladder tumours (TURBT) is the initial diagnostic treatment for patients with bladder cancer. TURBT is not an easy procedure to master and simulator training may play a role in improving the learning curve.

Objective: To implement a national training programme for simulation-based mastery learning in TURBT and explore operating theatre performance after training.

Validation of a Novel Assessment Tool Identifying Proficiency in Transurethral Bladder Tumor Resection: The OSATURBS Assessment Tool.

Competence in transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURB) is critical in bladder cancer management and should be ensured before independent practice. To develop an assessment tool for TURB and explore validity evidence in a clinical context. From July 2019 to March 2021, a total of 33 volunteer doctors from three hospitals were included after exemption from the regional ethics committee (REG-008-2018).

Oncological outcomes of radical nephroureterectomy for upper urinary tract urothelial neoplasia in Denmark.

To report the oncological outcomes of radical nephroureterectomy for upper urinary tract urothelial neoplasia in a large study sample. This was a nationwide multicenter registry-based cohort study of all patients with upper urinary tract urothelial neoplasia in Denmark found to be eligible for nephroureterectomy between April 2004 and April 2017 ( = 1384). Primary endpoints were intravesical recurrence-free survival and overall survival.

Migration of clips to the colon after laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.

A 78-year-old man was treated with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for a 4 cm tumour in the lower pole of the left kidney. The patient was discharged 2 days postoperatively. Preoperatively there was no sign of metastasis; the pathology indicated complete removal of the tumour, a renal cell carcinoma.
