Endocrine outcome and seminal parameters in young adult men born with hypospadias: A cross-sectional cohort study.

Background: Hypospadias affects around 1/200 newborn males. Intrauterine testicular dysfunction may underlie a subset of cases. The long-term endocrine and reproductive outcomes in these men remain largely unknown.

Ultrasound-guided epidural anesthesia and sedation for open transvesical Cohen ureteric reimplantation surgery in 20 consecutive children: a prospective case series and proof-of-concept study.

Background: Epidural anesthesia is usually combined with general anesthesia (GA) for children undergoing sub-umbilical surgery and GA in children is associated with a potential for respiratory events. Aiming to reduce airway manipulation and the use of GA drugs, we designed a study of transvesical Cohen ureteteric reimplantion under epidural anesthesia in sedated, spontaneously breathing children.

Methods: We enrolled 20 children (3-83 months, 6.

Ischemic Priapism in a 12 Year Old Patient Associated With Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19): A Case Report.

Infection with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been associated with changes in blood coagulation resulting in increased incidence of venous thromboembolic events and coagulopathy. Moreover, single cases of ischemic priapism have been reported in adult patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection. In this report, we describe the case of ischemic priapism in a 12-year-old child with recent SARS- CoV-2 infection.

Rules and regulations for a pregnant endourologist: the European perspective.

Introduction: Working in surgery while pregnant is challenging. Navigating this period safely is of paramount importance. Anecdotal observation suggests that there exists great variation among European nations in regard to maternity leave and radiation safety.

Adolescent and Young Adult Urogenital Outcome following Childhood Hypospadias Repair: Perfection Revisited.

Purpose: We assessed the long-term surgical, functional urinary and sexual outcomes of adolescent and young adult men who underwent childhood hypospadias repair.

Materials And Methods: Men born with nonsyndromic hypospadias and healthy male controls aged 16-21 years old were recruited, and their surgical, urinary, sexual functional and aesthetic outcomes assessed. Good outcome was defined as a patent and orthotopic meatus without fistulas, and straight erections (<30 degree curvature) without erectile or ejaculatory problems.

Psychosexual Outcome, Sexual Function, and Long-Term Satisfaction of Adolescent and Young Adult Men After Childhood Hypospadias Repair.

Background: The psychosexual outcome in adolescents and young adults (AYA) men born with hypospadias is precarious. However, the factors responsible for impaired outcome in some AYA men have been understudied.

Aim: To explore the outcome after hypospadias repair in childhood of AYA men aged 16-21 years and examine their opinion and their parents' opinion about this type of surgery.

The External Genitalia Score (EGS): A European Multicenter Validation Study.

Context: Standardized description of external genitalia is needed in the assessment of children with atypical genitalia.

Objectives: To validate the External Genitalia Score (EGS), to present reference values for preterm and term babies up to 24 months and correlate obtained scores with anogenital distances (AGDs).

Design, Setting: A European multicenter (n = 8) validation study was conducted from July 2016 to July 2018.

Management of ureteropelvic junction obstruction in children-a roundtable discussion.

The investigation, management and follow-up of paediatric ureteropelvic junction obstruction is not standardized. The Young Pediatric Urology Committee of the European Society of Pediatric Urology interviewed five experts in the field on various aspects of management and compared this with published literature.

Midline Incision of a Graft in Staged Hypospadias Repair-Feasible and Durable?

In severe hypospadias staged repair is commonly used and it is regarded as feasible, safe, and durable. In this article we want to describe the results of a modification of the staged repair: a midline incision of the graft during the second stage. This is a consecutive single team (2 surgeons) retrospective series.

Fetal magnetic resonance imaging of lymphangiomas.

Objectives: To evaluate the fetal magnetic resonance imaging findings of lymphangiomas.

Methods: The magnetic resonance scans of eight fetuses with lymphangiomas were evaluated. Magnetic resonance evaluation included: number; size; signal intensities of the lesions; thickness of the septae; configuration of the margins; presence of blood breakdown products; change in size or signal intensity (in four patients with multiple examinations); exact expansion of the lesions to the adjacent anatomical structures; and concomitant pathological findings.

Neuroendocrine tumor of the common hepatic duct, mimicking a choledochal cyst in a 6-year-old child.

We report a rare case of a neuroendocrine tumor of the extrahepatic biliary tree in a child. A 6-year-old girl who presented with jaundice and pruritus was found to have elevated liver enzymes along with a cystic dilatation of the common hepatic duct. After further diagnostic testing, a working diagnosis of a type I choledochal cyst was established.
