Department of Urology, Yongchuan Hospital, Chongqing Medical University Chongqing 402160, China.
Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of three-dimensional (3D) visualization technology assisted percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in the treatment of complex upper urinary tract calculi.
Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed clinical data from 127 patients with complex upper urinary tract stones admitted to Yongchuan Hospital, Chongqing Medical University from January 2020 to January 2023. According to the treatment methods, the patients were divided into an observation group (3D visualization technology assisted PCNL, n = 69) and a control group (conventional PCNL, n = 58).
Background: Renal stones are a prevalent condition requiring effective treatment strategies. This study evaluates the comparative effectiveness of shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) and ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URSL) in treating renal stones in a Pakistani cohort, focusing on stone clearance, recurrence, and complications.
Methods: This prospective cohort study involved 250 patients aged 18-55 diagnosed with renal stones.
Synchronous transperitoneal robotic-assisted bilateral cortical-sparing adrenalectomy for pheochromocytomas in a patient with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2a (MEN2A) syndrome: a case report.

December 2024
Department of Urology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China.
Background: Pheochromocytoma is a rare neuroendocrine tumor, and bilateral pheochromocytomas is even less common. Due to the limited experience with such cases, this study aims to explore the optimal surgical strategy, assess the potential advantages of robotic surgery, and evaluate surgical outcomes for managing bilateral pheochromocytomas.
Case Description: This report presented a case of a 33-year-old woman with bilateral pheochromocytomas related to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2a (MEN2A), who was successfully managed by synchronous transperitoneal robotic-assisted bilateral cortical-sparing adrenalectomy.
Comparison of postoperative biochemical indicators and surgical result between partial adrenalectomy and total adrenalectomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Department of Urology, Surgical Ward One, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University, Kunming, China.
Background: The selection and extent of application for both total adrenalectomy (TA) and partial adrenalectomy (PA) within this surgical approach continue to be matters of debate. This paper compares the postoperative efficacy and functional indicators of PA and TA to provide comprehensive insights for clinicians to consider the best surgical treatment options.
Methods: Systematic review on PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) was conducted.
