Robot-Assisted Video Endoscopic Inguinal Lymph Node Dissection for Penile Cancer: An Indian Multicenter Experience.

To report outcomes of multicenter series of penile cancer patients undergoing robot-assisted video endoscopic inguinal lymph node dissection (RA-VEIL). In this retrospective analysis from 3 tertiary care centers in India, consecutive intermediate-/high-risk carcinoma penis (CaP) patients with nonpalpable inguinal lymphadenopathy and/or nonbulky (<3 cm) mobile inguinal lymphadenopathy undergoing RA-VEIL were included. Patients with matted/bulky (>3 cm) and fixed lymphadenopathy were excluded.

Surgical and oncological outcomes of robot-assisted versus laparoscopic radical nephroureterectomy for upper-tract urothelial carcinoma: A single-center comparative analysis.

Introduction: We retrospectively compared surgical and oncological outcomes of robot-assisted (RA) radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) in patients of upper-tract urothelial carcinoma with a cohort of patients who underwent the same procedure using a laparoscopic approach.

Methods: Data of 63 consecutive patients who underwent RNU with bladder cuff excision (BCE) from 2011 to 2022 at a single tertiary care institution was retrospectively retrieved from the electronically maintained institutional database. Twenty-six cases underwent RNU with a laparoscopic approach, whereas 37 were done by RA approach.

Prostate cancer detection using magnetic resonance imaging-transrectal ultrasound fusion biopsy: A retrospective cohort study.

Introduction: Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided systematic prostate biopsy is conventionally used for the diagnosis of carcinoma prostate (CaP). However, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guided biopsies have been shown to have superior diagnostic performance. MRI-TRUS fusion biopsy improves the detection by combining the systematic and the targeted biopsies (TB).

Enzalutamide-Induced Acute Maculopapular Rash in Treatment of Metastatic Prostate Cancer: First Case Report from a Tertiary Cancer Care Center of North India.

Enzalutamide is a new potent inhibitor of the signaling pathway for the androgen receptor with a half-life of 5.8 days. It has been on the market for the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer since November 2013.

Cutaneous Radiation-Associated Angiosarcoma After Treatment of Carcinoma Penis: First Report from Tertiary Cancer Centre of North India.

Cutaneous radiation-associated angiosarcoma (cRAA) is a rare and aggressive secondary cutaneous angiosarcoma (cAS) with poor survival. cRAA has been mostly reported in breast carcinoma patients. Owing to its rarity, there is scanty literature available and no treatment guidelines.

Robot-assisted retroperitoneal lymph node dissection for post-chemotherapy residual mass in testicular cancer: Long-term experience from a tertiary care centre.

Objectives: To present our intermediate to long-term oncological and functional outcomes of robot-assisted retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RA-RPLND) in post-chemotherapy (PC) residual mass in testicular cancers. To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest single-centre experience of RA-RPLND for in such setting.

Methods: Prospectively maintained database of carcinoma testis patients undergoing RA-RPLND from February 2012 to September 2021 was reviewed.

Robotic re-exploration for post-operative in house complications following robotic pelvic uro-oncologic surgery: Initial experience, tips and tricks.

Purpose: Despite widespread acceptance of robotics in urology, literature on using the minimally invasive approach for management of post robotic surgical complications is limited. Here we describe our experience with tips and tricks for robotic re-exploration of post-operative in house complications following robotic pelvic uro-oncologic surgery.

Methods: A retrospective query of prospectively maintained database was done for all patients who underwent robotic - radical cystoprostatectomy (RCP, 437 patients) and radical prostatectomy (RP, 649 patients), from Jan 2015 or March 2021.

Perineal urethrostomy: A single-stage viable option for complex anterior urethral strictures.

Introduction: Perineal urethrostomy (PU) is a valid single stage option with maximum success to manage complex anterior urethral strictures.

Aims: To evaluate the functional outcome of permanent PU using the Blandy technique in older patients or PU with staged reconstruction in young patients with severely diseased distal urethra.

Materials And Methods: This is a retrospective analysis of 124 patients.
