Article Abstract
Urethral mesh placement has become a common surgical intervention for the management of stress urinary incontinence. While this procedure offers significant benefits, it is not without potential complications. This review article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of urethral mesh assessment in oncologic patients. The article explores normal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) mesh appearances and highlights the pathological aspects associated with urethral mesh complications including both short-term and long-term post-operative complications. By understanding the spectrum of normal findings of urethral mesh and the possible complications, clinicians can improve patient outcomes and make informed decisions regarding urethral mesh management in this patient population.

Mid-urethral sling with proper sling tension is an effective treatment for stress urinary incontinence in women after pelvic radiotherapy: a pilot study of case series.
Front Surg
January 2025
Department of Urology, Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.
Background: At present, consensus on the management of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after pelvic radiotherapy is lacking. We aim to assess the clinical effects of mid-urethral sling (MUS) for the treatment of SUI after pelvic radiotherapy in women.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of the clinical database of female with SUI after pelvic radiotherapy from June 2015 to February 2022.
Objective: To engineer an acellular mesh to reconstruct the urethra to replace the current surgical practice of using autologous tissue grafts. Cell based approaches have shown progress. However, these have been associated with high costs and logistical challenges.

Laboratory of Tissue Engineering, Rigshospitalet, Faculty of Clinical Medicine, University of Copenhagen, 2100 Copenhagen, Denmark.
The aim of the present study was to summarize what is known about the role of microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) in relation to hypospadias. Therefore, a systematic review was performed by consulting the electronic databases, MEDLINE (PubMed) and Embase. The search strategy consisted of both MeSH and free text terms, including hypospadias AND miRNA.

Article Synopsis
- - The study addresses complications seen in women after polypropylene mesh surgery for urinary incontinence, highlighting the need for a preclinical animal model for better assessment before human trials.
- - Fourteen ewes were surgically implanted with either polypropylene or polyurethane tape to simulate the procedure, while post-operative assessments included monitoring for pain and complications.
- - The results indicated a successful procedure with no complications observed, marking this as the first significant large animal model aimed specifically at understanding suburethral mesh implantation.
