Bacterial urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common, ranging from benign cystitis to complicated pyelonephritis, which can lead to severe complications such as pyonephrosis and sepsis. Pyonephrosis, characterized by the presence of pus in the renal cavities, often requires urgent urological intervention. We report a unique case of pyonephrosis with a psoas abscess caused by and in a 64-year-old diabetic female patient.

Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Introduction: Despite the benefits of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockers, their immediate use after nephrectomy has been limited because of concerns about impaired renal adaptation. We aimed to evaluate the effect of RAS blockers immediately after unilateral nephrectomy on renal adaptation.
Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study included 580 patients who underwent elective unilateral nephrectomy between 2010 and 2020 and had preexisting hypertension with antihypertensive medications.
Transperitoneal robot-assisted partial nephrectomy: a comparison of operative and oncological outcomes between posterior and anterolateral tumours.

Department of Urology, Zealand University Hospital, Roskilde, Denmark.
Objective: To compare operative and oncological outcomes, as well as the risk of postoperative complications in patients who underwent transperitoneal robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for renal tumours located either posteriorly or anterolaterally.
Methods: Retrospective, consecutive study including 451 patients who underwent transperitoneal RAPN for non-metastatic, localised renal tumours from May 2016 to April 2023. Operative data included duration of the procedure, warm ischaemia time, and blood loss; oncological data included surgical margins and recurrence; and 90-day postoperative complications were classified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification.
Deferred cytoreductive nephrectomy in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma: A systematic review and patient-level meta-analysis.

Department of Urology, Singapore General Hospital, Singapore; SingHealth Duke-NUS Transplant Centre, Singapore. Electronic address:
There has been much controversy regarding the order in which cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) and systemic therapy (ST) are applied for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). We aimed to investigate the role of deferred CN (dCN) in mRCC, particularly in the current era of immunotherapy. A systematic literature search was conducted on PubMed, Embase, and Scopus for studies comparing dCN versus any non-dCN strategy, in any temporal sequence, with the provision of Kaplan-Meier curves for overall survival (OS).

Department of Hematology, Dokuz Eylul University Hospital, Izmir 35000, Turkey.
Cold agglutinin syndrome is a form of acquired hemolytic anemia that typically arises from underlying conditions, such as infections, autoimmune disorders or lymphoid malignancies. The majority of patients remain asymptomatic and are diagnosed with anemia through routine complete blood count (CBC) testing. The present study describes the case of a male patient in his 50s who sought a second opinion at the authors' clinic due to newly detected anemia.
