The appearance of urological complications is a major problem in obstetrics and gynecologic surgery; the bladder is the most common damaged organ. Due to a continuous increase in the rate of cesareans, the incidence of urologic complications will be potentially higher. We reviewed the most important risk factors for urinary tract injury and analyzed the strategies necessary to avoid these situations during vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC). The risks and benefits of VBAC should be balanced before deciding the mode of delivery.

Bone metastasis and skeletal-related complications are primary causes of mortality in advanced-stage prostate cancer (PCa). Epigenetic regulation, particularly histone modification, plays a key role in this process; however, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In mouse models, JARID1D was an important mediator of both visceral and bone metastases.

Background: Bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA) is globally recognized as a prevalent malignancy. Its treatment remains challenging due to the extensive morbidity, high mortality rates, and compromised quality of life from postoperative complications and the lack of specific molecular targets. Our aim was to establish a prognostic model to evaluate the prognostic significance, assess immunotherapy responses, and determine drug susceptibility in patients with BLCA.

Nutcracker syndrome (NCS) is an uncommon vascular condition caused by the compression of the left renal vein (LRN), which may result in venous hypertension and clinical symptoms, including hematuria, flank pain, and pelvic congestion. This report describes the case of a 30-year-old woman with recurrent painless macroscopic hematuria, ultimately diagnosed with NCS based on clinical and radiological findings. Computed tomography (CT) angiography revealed a reduced aortomesenteric angle and LRN compression without signs of severe venous hypertension or collateral circulation.

Abundant clinical data indicate that mpox is a sexually transmitted infection and that the urogenital system is the most frequently involved system in mpox, which deserves more attention. Penile lesions are the most common presentation, followed by urethritis.
