Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized the treatment of systemic cancer therapy. During disinhibiting the antitumor responses of immune system, ICIs may also cause unique immune-related adverse events (irAEs) which could affect any organ. Here, we report a rare case of sintilimab-induced ureteritis/cystitis in a 55-year-old male undergoing neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy for gastric cancer.

Purpose: Postoperative fever (POF)/urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most unpleasant and undesirable conditions for surgeons after retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS). RIRS is not recommended for any patient with a positive urine culture to avoid POF and UTI, but some patients may develop postoperative UTI even if the urine culture is sterile. This study investigated the predictive factors of fever and UTIs after RIRS.

Urothelial carcinoma (UC) can arise from either the lower urinary tract or the upper tract; they represent different disease entities and require different clinical treatment strategies. A full understanding of the cellular characteristics in UC may guide the development of novel therapies. Here, we performed single-cell transcriptome analysis from four patients with UC of the bladder (UCB), five patients with UC of the ureter (UCU), and four patients with UC of the renal pelvis (UCRP) to develop a comprehensive cell atlas of UC.
