Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy as well as the complications associated with transurethral removal (TUR) of intravesical mesh after suburethral sling, transobturator tape-TOT (Monarc™) or "minisling" (MiniArc(®)), in the treatment of female urinary stress incontinence (USI).
Material And Methods: retrospective and consecutive study on 9 women with bladder perforation after midurethral slings (3 Monarc™ and 6 MiniArc®) placement for urinary stress incontinence. To remove the mesh, transurethral resection with an electrode loop (TUR-E) was used. The technique included: location and total removal of mesh with bipolar resectoscope up to healthy tissue.
Results: The median age was 61 years (49-70 years). The median time between midurethral sling placement and onset the sympltoms was 13 months (1-79 months). and between sling placement and mesh removal was 16 months (1-91 months). Five women (55.5%) developed bladder stones. Mean operating time was 29.4 ± 10.4 minutes and mean length of hospital stay was 2.6 ± 0.5 days. The median follow-up after mesh removal was 38 months (range, 14 to 109 months). No complications were found.
Conclusions: The use of transurethral resection of intravesical mesh after suburethral slings is easy and the results obtained by our surgical team are excellent.

Objectives: To evaluate the utility of the HAS-BLED bleeding risk-estimation tool to predict for clinically significant postoperative haematuria in patients receiving transurethral resection of prostate (TURP).
Patients And Methods: A single-centre, retrospective cohort analysis of patients underwent TURP from April 2019 to December 2023 for treatment of symptomatic benign prostate hyperplasia. The primary objective was to evaluate reliability of HAS-BLED score in predicting postoperative bleeding event.
Objectives: To assess the impact of a positive history of venous thromboembolism (VTE) on perioperative outcomes, including length of in-hospital stay, readmission rates, 90-day postoperative complications, and healthcare costs in bladder cancer (BCa) patients undergoing transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) in the United States.
Patients And Methods: Patients aged ≥18 years with a BCa diagnosis undergoing TURBT were identified in the Merative® Marketscan® Research de-identified databases between 2007 and 2021. Multivariable logistic regression adjusted by relevant perioperative confounders was used to investigate the association between diagnosis of VTE before TURBT and 90-day complication rates, new postoperative VTE events, re-hospitalization, and total hospital expenditures (2021 US dollars).

Introduction: Bladder cancer is common in men. The number of recurrences is one of the risk factors for progression and poor prognosis in nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). We aimed to investigate whether bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) has an effect on bladder cancer recurrence in patients with nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer.

Objective: Aim: To evaluate the expression levels of SOX-10 in tissues of bladder tumor and to prove the correlation between SOX-10 expression and clinicopathological characteristics of bladder tumors, including patient age, sex, tumor grade, and muscle invasion.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: Forty formalin fixed paraffin embedded FFPE tissue blocks gathered by transurethral resection of bladder tumor are collected from teaching hospitals at Al-Najaf governorate. Those blocks were stained by hematoxylin and eosin.
