Purpose: To evaluate the prognostic factors affecting the surgical margin and recurrence in patients who underwent partial nephrectomy (PN) for renal masses.

Materials And Methods: Data of 125 patients who underwent open or laparoscopic PN because of renal mass between January 2006 and January 2019 were analysed retrospectively. Demographic data, habits, additional diseases, clinical and laboratory findings, operational data, the morphology of the tumour in computerised tomography or magnetic-resonance imaging and follow-up data were scanned and acquired via our hospital's system and archive.

Results: Average age was 54.4, male-female ratio was 1.55 and average tumour size was 3.31 cm. One hundred and four patients had malignant pathology and 21 were benign. Positive surgical margin (PSM) rate was 5.6% and recurrence rate was 3.2%. Average follow-up was 47.4 months. Pathological size of the tumour was larger (P = .006), warm-ischemia period was lower (P = .003) and PADUA score was higher (P = .015) in open technique. Tumour size and tumour stage were statistically higher in patients with recurrence (P = .009, P < .001, respectively). There was a significantly higher PSM ratio in mandatory indication group than elective indication group (P = .025). No statistically significant difference was observed between surgical margin positivity and tumour size, Fuhrman grades, PADUA scores, RENAL scores and C-index. (P > .05).

Conclusion: Surgical margin positivity after PN is not significantly associated with tumour characteristics and anatomical scoring systems. Surgical indication for PN has a direct influence on PSM rates. Tumour size and stage after PN are valuable parameters in evaluating the recurrence risk.

Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy Using the KangDuo Surgical Robot-1500: A Prospective, Multicenter, Single-Arm Clinical Study.

J Endourol

January 2025

Department of Urology, Peking University First Hospital, Institution of Urology, Beijing Key Laboratory of Urogenital Diseases (Male) Molecular Diagnosis and Treatment Center, National Urological Cancer Center, Peking University, Beijing, China.

The KangDuo Surgical Robot-1500 (KD-SR-1500) is a newly developed surgical robot. We aim to evaluate the feasibility and efficiency of the KD-SR-1500 system for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). This prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical study was conducted among 18-75-year-old patients with suspected T1-2N0M0 prostate cancer scheduled for RARP.

Background: Involution or aging is the most common cause of lower eyelid entropion (in-turning of eyelid margin) in the elderly population. Various pathomechanisms have been postulated for its occurrence. Aging leads to laxity of tissues and loss of muscle tone.

Purpose: The primary objective of this study was to investigate the possible role and assess the potential relationship of speculum use during phacoemulsification surgery in the occurrence of blepharoptosis.

Methods: Our study is a prospective observational design to analyze patients who underwent phacoemulsification surgery under topical anesthesia between October 2017 and May 2018 at a tertiary eye hospital in South India. All patients had their Margin Reflex Distance 1 (MRD1), levator palpebrae superioris (LPS) function, and lid crease distance (LCD) measured before and after surgery on day one, one month, three months, and six months to evaluate the extent of ptosis at each time point that was recorded clinically and photographic documentation for accurate evaluation.

Oncological principles in the management of ocular surface squamous neoplasia - A Review.

Indian J Ophthalmol

February 2025

Ocular Oncology Service, Centre for Sight, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.

Ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) is the most common neoplasia of the anterior segment. Accurate and timely diagnosis, including detailed clinical assessment and imaging, is essential to ascertain the extent of the disease. The gold standard treatment for OSSN has evolved over the years, transitioning from wide-margin surgical excision using the "no-touch" technique to topical immunotherapy, plaque brachytherapy, and targeted immunotherapy.
