This study retrospectively examined the effects of low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy and tadalafil on erectile dysfunction patients. 116 patients got low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy twice weekly for 3 weeks, 5 mg of tadalafil daily for 3 weeks, and adjuvant therapy for 6 months. Group A (1 year), Group B (2 years), Group C (3 years), and Group D (4+ years) were treated patients' follow-up groups.

Material And Methods: Between July 2012 and February 2013, a total of 47 patients were included in this prospective controlled study. Patients who have been scheduled for laparoscopic surgery (LS) (n=30) and open surgery (n=17) were enrolled in the study.
The Predictive Role of Abdominal Fat Parameters and Stone Density on SWL Outcomes.
Curr Med Imaging Rev
November 2020
Background: Our aim was to detect the role of radiological abdominal fat parameters by tomography and stone density by plain X-ray on extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (SWL) stone-free rate.
Methods: The patients who had undergone SWL for a single opaque renal stone < 2 cm in diameter and proximal ureteric stone < 1 cm in diameter were collected retrospectively. The characteristics of patients and stones were recorded.
Introduction And Objectives: To evaluate the quality of information in You Tube videos pertaining to premature ejaculation.
Materials And Methods: A search for "premature ejaculation" (PE) was performed on You Tube in August 2018. Two senior urologist viewers watched and categorized each video for their sources, suggestions and information contents (excellent, fair or poor).
Objective: To compare patient/partner satisfaction with AMS 600-650 and AMS Ambicore penile implants (American Medical Systems, Minneapolis, USA) in patients with erectile dysfunction.
Material And Methods: The modified Erectile Dysfunction Inventory of Treatment Satisfaction (EDITS) questionnaires at six months after implantation of 46 patients who underwent AMS 600-650 (n=23) or Ambicore placement (n=23) between 1/1/2008 and 1/1/2013 were analyzed.
Results: The percentages of patients with AMS 600-650 who reported to be satisfied, very satisfied and neither satisfied nor dissatisfied with their prostheses were 34.
Purpose: To determine the unfavorable factors, related to lower pole anatomical characteristics (LPACs), influencing the success of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) for lower pole renal calculi (LPC).
Materials And Methods: We reviewed the data of 36 patients who underwent RIRS for LPC between October 2012 and October 2013. The infundibulopelvic angle (IPA), infundibular length (IL) and infundibular width (IW) were measured on preoperative intravenous urographies.
