Background: Complete transperitoneal nephroureterectomy (CTNU) in a single-position is an advanced surgical technique for the treatment of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC), performed entirely through a transperitoneal approach without the need for patient repositioning. Indocyanine green (ICG) has been extensively studied in urologic surgery, with applications ranging from sentinel lymph node mapping to tumor localization. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of retrograde ureteral fluorescence imaging in CTNU.

A retrospective analysis of patients who underwent SPRA from April to September 2023 in our center was conducted. Patients were divided into the ICG group and the non-ICG group, based on whether they received intraoperative ICG fluorescence guided or not.

The present study aims to investigate the incidence and risk factors of BNC in patients diagnosed benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and following transurethral resection or enucleation of the prostate (TURP/TUEP).
Methods: This retrospective study included 1008 BPH individuals who underwent transurethral surgery of the prostate between January 2017 and January 2022.
