Eleven partial splenectomies are performed in pigs. Simultaneous section and hemostasis are obtained with continuous 80 W power shoot. There is no hemorrhagic or septic complication and normal splenic weight is recovered in 5 months. Platelets elevation observed in post-operative. Platelets elevation observed in post-operative period returns to normal rate between 20th and 30th day. Acute cellular damage of cut splenic edge does not exceed 3 mm in thickness. Semi-thick and electron microscopic examination reveals at day 10 mitotic figures of lymphocytes (i.e. splenic regeneration) and at day 30 high density of mast cells and plasmocytes i.e. cellular biostimulation).

Objectives: Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a challenging chronic inflammatory condition affecting the urinary bladder, with limited treatment options. This study aims to assess the clinical efficacy of repeated intravesical platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections for promoting urothelial regeneration and reducing inflammation in patients with IC/BPS and investigate its correlation with subjective and objective treatment-related outcomes.

Materials And Methods: Four monthly intravesical PRP injections were given to 98 patients with non-Hunner-type IC/BPS.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors have improved the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC), with the combination of nivolumab (NIVO) and ipilimumab (IPI) showing promising results. However, not all patients benefit from these therapies, emphasizing the need for reliable, easily assessable biomarkers. This multicenter study involved 116 advanced RCC patients treated with NIVO + IPI across nine oncology centers in Poland.
