The advantages of our method: 1. By omission of the urethral catheter the infection is nearly completely avoided. 2. It guarantees a good haemostasis. 3. It reduces the intraoperative and later complications of adenectomy (infection and anaemia). 4. It facilitates the postoperative treatment. 5. One avoids urethritis and strictures caused by the urethral catheter. 6. It shortens the postoperative period of rest. 7. One economises medicaments (antibiotically, antianaemically). 8. The possible break of the catgut thread at its removal is of no danger, as it is resorbed.

Management of Catheter-Related Urethral Injuries in Male Children.

Paediatric Surgery, Bristol Royal Hospital for Children, Bristol, GBR.
Introduction: Management of urethral trauma lacks clarity in the paediatric population. There is no clear guidance for management and follow-up of these patients which can lead to missing the long-term sequelae of the primary injury. Catheter-associated urethral injuries are less likely to cause a complete transaction of the urethra.

Introduction And Importance: Myiasis is an overlooked public health issue, with urogenital myiasis (UGM) being particularly rare, as evidenced by only 59 reported cases worldwide from 1975 to 2017. There is a notable scarcity of cases involving patients with prolonged catheter use related to SCI. The interaction of SCI with the complications associated with indwelling urinary devices is less frequently discussed in prior literature.

Indwelling medical devices, such as urinary catheters, often experience bacterial colonization, forming biofilms that resist antibiotics and the host's immune defenses through quorum sensing (QS), a chemical communication system. This study explores the development of antimicrobial coatings by immobilizing acylase, a quorum-quenching enzyme, on sandblasted polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surfaces. PDMS, commonly used in medical devices, was sandblasted to increase its surface roughness, enhancing acylase attachment.

There is a significant incentive to reduce the rate of CAUTIs through multimodal quality improvement initiatives; however, these initiatives are often costly to implement.
Objective: This article examines the cost-savings associated with a novel "two-part, two-person" catheter insertion protocol implemented at a pediatric quaternary care center PICU which replaced costly pre-packaged, closed system urinary catheter kits with their individually packaged components, along with its impact on CAUTI rates and nursing satisfaction.
Urinary Continence After Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy Using the Peritoneal Fixation Technique.
Asian J Endosc Surg
January 2025
Department of Urology, Kanagawa Cancer Center, Yokohama, Japan.
Introduction: The Retzius-sparing technique for prostate cancer has shown favorable continence recovery outcomes. Magnetic resonance imaging after Retzius-sparing showed that the bladder anterior wall is widely connected to the abdominal wall, which contributes to urinary continence. We aimed to evaluate whether the Peritoneal Fixation technique, which involves suturing the anterior bladder wall onto the abdominal wall above the pubic bone, contributes to the recovery of urinary continence.
