Article Abstract
Within the North East of England, there are an increasing number of complex patients presenting with urogenital pain; many of whom are under the care of multiple specialities. To understand and plan a cohesive strategy for this cohort, we have established a multi-disciplinary regional urogenital pain network meeting. The quarterly meetings allow us to share expertise, best practice and identify areas for improvement with the aim of therefore streamlining the patient journey and enhancing the quality of care patients with urogenital pain receive.

Ureteral access sheath or percutaneous nephrostomy during flexible ureteroscopy: which is better?
Urolithiasis
January 2025
Urology Department, Benha University, Benha, Qalubia, Egypt.
Studies in literature discussed the drawbacks of the ureteral access sheath use in flexible ureteroscopy and in the same time mentioned the benefits of ureteral access sheath in decreasing the incidence of urosepsis and better stone free rate. In the current study we aim to compare between percutaneous nephrostomy tube (PCN) insertion before flexible ureteroscopy and conventional ureteral access sheath (UAS) flexible ureteroscopy in terms of safety, efficacy and perioperative outcomes. In all, 100 Patients aged 20 to 67 years with upper ureteric stones and mild hydronephrosis or renal pelvic stones less than 20 mm with mild hydronephrosis were randomized into 2 groups; patients undergoing PCN insertion before flexible ureteroscopy, and patients undergoing the conventional UAS flexible ureteroscopy.

Background And Objective: Non-motor symptoms frequently develop throughout the disease course of Parkinson's disease (PD), and pose affected individuals at risk of complications, more rapid disease progression and poorer quality of life. Addressing such symptom burden, the 2023 revised "Parkinson's disease" guideline of the German Society of Neurology aimed at providing evidence-based recommendations for managing PD non-motor symptoms, including autonomic failure, pain and sleep disturbances.
Methods: Key PICO (Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) questions were formulated by the steering committee and refined by the assigned authors.

Zinner syndrome is an extremely uncommon congenital anomaly of the male urogenital tract. It is attributed to an embryological anomaly that arises in the distal segment of the mesonephric or Wolffian duct. It is the inadequate migration of the ureteric bud that contributes to the failure of differentiation of the metanephric blastema, which ultimately results in ipsilateral renal agenesis and atresia of the ejaculatory duct.
