A new method is reported for operative treatment of urine incontinence, following transversal adenomectomy and transurethral resection of the prostate gland. The operative technique is described in detail. Its basic point is placing of a small "Ampoxen" ball over the urethral bulbus. Disappearance of the incontinence after such an operation is due both to the compression on the bulbar part of the urethra and to the formation of connective tissue, which proliferates into the sheet being placed. Twelve patients from 62 to 75 years of age were treated in this way. In 10 of them the immediate and the late results are considered very good. Incontinence disappeared until the 3. day after removing the indwelling catheter. In the other two patients the result is considered satisfactory. The encouraging results make the authors prefer the method which they suggest for postoperative urine incontinence.

Low Urin Tract Symptoms
January 2025
Department of Urology, Institute of Urology (Laboratory of Reconstructive Urology), West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, People's Republic of China.
Aim: This study aimed to analyze the clinical efficacy and safety of autologous fascial pubovaginal sling (AFPVS) surgery in treating recurrent stress urinary incontinence (SUI) following the failure of mid-urethral sling procedures.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of SUI patients who underwent AFPVS at our hospital between 2008 June and 2024 June following the failure of mid-urethral sling procedures. The analysis included basic information, surgical parameters, and postoperative complications.
Diagnosis of Leptomeningeal Disease in Diffuse Midline Gliomas by Detection of H3F3A K27M Mutation in Circulating Tumor DNA of Cerebrospinal Fluid.

Introduction: Leptomeningeal disease (LMD) in diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs) can lead to devastating symptoms such as severe pain, urinary incontinence, and tetraparesis, with limited treatment options. We determined whether detecting H3F3A K27M-mutant droplets in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) could be a biomarker for detecting LMD in DMGs.
Methods: Twenty-five CSF samples were obtained from 22 DMG patients.
Study protocol for a single-centre non-inferior double-blinded randomised controlled trial in China comparing the efficacy and safety of high-frequency irreversible electroporation with transurethral resection of the prostate in treating lower urinary tract symptoms and benign prostatic obstruction (the GIANT trial).

Department of Urology, Tongji University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China
Introduction: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the gold standard surgical treatment to lower urinary tract symptoms and benign prostatic obstruction (LUTS/BPO). Although it has been proven to have substantial efficacy in improving functional outcomes, it has shown a high incidence of complications, including transurethral resection syndrome, massive bleeding, urinary incontinence and sexual dysfunction. High-frequency irreversible electroporation (H-FIRE) is a novel non-thermal ablation technique that delivers pulsed high-voltage but low-energy electric current to the cell membrane, thereby leading to cell death.

Low Urin Tract Symptoms
January 2025
Farwaniya Hospital, Farwaniya, Kuwait.
Objectives: During holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HOLEP), blunt dissection (BD) by pushing the tip of the scope may exert mechanical force on the sphincter that could be avoided by adopting laser dissection (LD). This study evaluates the continence recovery in consecutive patients who underwent BD and LD.
Methods: A prospective cohort of patients who underwent LD was compared with a retrospective control that underwent BD.
Sacral Neuromodulation Reprogramming Rates: Understanding Office-Based Requirement.
Urogynecology (Phila)
December 2024
Importance: Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is a procedure with the advantage of reprogramming for discomfort or inadequate symptom control.
Objectives: The aims of this study were to investigate the rates of office-based SNM programming in a large multisite cohort and to examine differences based on implantation indication.
Study Design: The TriNetX database was utilized for retrospective cohort comparison using International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, and Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes.
