This case report involves a 45-y-old woman after cadaveric renal transplantation. The initial renal scan on the first postsurgical day showed normal findings. Subsequently, on the sixth postsurgical day, the patient had decreased urine output; 99mTc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid renal scanning was performed again and did not show definite scintigraphic evidence of a urine leak. The patient's condition was not improving; renal scanning was repeated on day 20 and demonstrated a large photopenic region surrounding the superior, medial, and inferior aspects of the kidney. Delayed imaging was performed 2.5 h after injection of radiotracer, and activity was observed in the previously cold region.

Introduction SUI is a common pelvic floor dysfunction in middle-aged and elderly women, which has a serious negative impact on the patient's quality of Life (QoL), pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) and electrical stimulation (ES), as common non-surgical treatment modalities, have been widely used in the management of SUI. However, there is controversy about the effectiveness of the combined application of these two interventions. For this reason, this study evaluated the efficacy of PFMT combined with ES in the treatment of SUI by Meta-analysis.

Introduction: Colposuspension has been a well-accepted surgical treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) since 1961. However, there is limited research on predictors of poor outcomes in both laparoscopic colposuspension (LC) and open colposuspension (OC) procedures. This study aimed to identify predictors linked to patient-reported failure after colposuspension.

Background: Intradural extramedullary tuberculoma of the spinal cord (IETSC) is an exceedingly rare manifestation of tuberculosis (TB) affecting the central nervous system.
Case Description: A 33-year-old immunocompetent female with disseminated TB, including pulmonary involvement and leptomeningeal tuberculomas, developed progressive paraplegia and urinary incontinence over 2 months. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed diffuse intradural extramedullary soft tissue from C7 to L2 vertebral levels, indicative of abscess formation and severe spinal cord compression.

Introduction And Hypothesis: The aim of the study was to compare clinical outcomes when using robotic-assisted sacral hysterocolpopexy (RASC) and vaginal surgery using the Uphold™ Vaginal Support System mesh for pelvic organ prolapse repair.
Methods: This was a nonrandomized, prospective, multicenter study in which 72 women underwent RASC, and 73 Uphold™ surgery, for apical prolapse (POP-Q C ≥ stage II). Anatomical outcomes were assessed using the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) system.
