Background & Objective: Postoperative tissue adherence, scarring and radiotherapy often lead to extrinsic compression and stricture in the distal ureter of the patients who had history of pelvic malignancies. Our aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of endourologic techniques in treating this kind of ureteral obstruction.
Methods: From Jan.
Aim: To examine the impact and prognostic significance of alpha-tocopherol associated protein (TAP) expression in a series of prostate cancer patients.
Methods: Tissues from 87 patients underwent radical prostatectomy were examined for TAP expression by immunohistochemistry. The relationships of the staining results, the clinic pathological characteristics and the recurrence times were analyzed.
