Background: Hemorrhage is a common complication of nephrostomy and percutaneous nephrolithotripsy, and it is caused by surgical factors. Here we report a rare case of hemorrhage caused by sepsis-related coagulation dysfunction.
Case Presentation: A 72-years-old male patient with bilateral ureteral calculi accompanied by hydronephrosis and renal insufficiency developed sepsis and hemorrhage on the third day after bilateral nephrostomy. After vascular injury was excluded by DSA, the hemorrhage was considered to be sepsis-associated coagulopathy(SAC/SIC), finally the patient recovered well after active symptomatic treatment.
Conclusions: In patients with sepsis and hemorrhage, SAC/SIC cannot be excluded even if coagulation function is slightly abnormal after surgical factors are excluded. For urologists who may encounter similar cases in their general urology practice, it is important to be aware of these unusual causes of hemorrhage.

Background: The high prevalence and prolonged duration of inflow pain and drain pain experienced by peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients following PD catheter implantation impact their quality of life. However, there is limited data on the frequency and predisposing factors of these pains in the Chinese population undergoing peritoneal dialysis.
Methods: This study encompassed individuals who underwent peritoneal dialysis catheter implantation at our institution from September 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024.

Department of Neurological Surgery, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, 1095 NW 14th Terrace, 2nd Floor, Miami, Fl, 33136, USA.
Purpose: Prolonged length of stay (PLOS) can lead to resource misallocation and higher complication risks. However, there is no consensus on defining PLOS for endoscopic transsphenoidal pituitary surgery (ETPS). Therefore, we investigated the impact of varying PLOS definitions on factors associated with PLOS in patients undergoing ETPS.

Material And Methods: Patients were eligible for inclusion if they were clinically diagnosed with an ACL tear confirmed by MRI. For each patient, the following parameters were evaluated: PCL angle (PCLA), medial tibial slope (MTS), lateral tibial slope (LTS), medial anterior tibial translation (MATT), and lateral anterior tibial translation (LATT).

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients undergoing endoscopic endonasal surgery remains underexplored, despite its potential impact on postoperative recovery. This study aimed to develop and validate a predictive nomogram for assessing the risk of lower-limb DVT in such patients without chemoprophylaxis. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 935 patients with postoperative lower-limb vein ultrasonography.
