In the light of a case of CMV cystitis in an HIV 1-sero-positive patient suffering from disabling bladder pain, refractory to the usual treatments, the authors describe the mechanism of infection, the diagnostic approach, and especially the value of deep bladder biopsies by resection, as the endoscopic appearance is not pathognomonic and CMV was only detected in the deep muscle layer.

AI predicting recurrence in non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer: systematic review with study strengths and weaknesses.
Front Oncol
January 2025
School of Engineering, Newcastle University, Newcastle Upon Tyne, United Kingdom.
Background: Non-muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) is notorious for its high recurrence rate of 70-80%, imposing a significant human burden and making it one of the costliest cancers to manage. Current prediction tools for NMIBC recurrence rely on scoring systems that often overestimate risk and lack accuracy. Machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) are transforming oncological urology by leveraging molecular and clinical data to enhance predictive precision.

Transl Androl Urol
December 2024
Department of Urology, Peking University People's Hospital, Beijing, China.
Background: Aggressive angiomyxoma (AAM) is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor known for its aggressive behavior and high recurrence rates, with male cases of AAM being less frequently reported. This study presents a rare case of primary prostatic AAM characterized by a prostatic urethral mass obstructing the bladder outlet, resulting in acute renal dysfunction.
Case Description: The 51-year-old male patient presented with lumbar pain, nausea, frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination.
Feasibility and surgical outcomes of simultaneous urethral reconstruction for synchronous urethral strictures.
Int J Urol
January 2025
Department of Urology, National Defense Medical College, Saitama, Japan.
Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility and surgical outcomes of simultaneous urethral reconstruction for synchronous urethral strictures (SUS) and analyze the surgical techniques employed for different stricture combinations.
Methods: Twenty-two male patients with SUS who underwent urethral reconstruction between February 2018 and July 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. Stricture locations and lengths were evaluated using cystoscopy and urethrography after urethral rest for at least 3 months.
Impact of deep or ovarian endometriosis on pelvic pain and quality of life: prospective cross-sectional ultrasound study.
Ultrasound Obstet Gynecol
January 2025
EGA Institute for Women's Health, Faculty of Population Health Sciences, University College London Hospital, London, UK.
Objective: To assess whether premenopausal women diagnosed with deep or ovarian endometriosis on transvaginal sonography (TVS) were more likely to suffer from dyspareunia and pelvic pain symptoms, and have a lower quality of life, compared to women without sonographically diagnosed deep or ovarian endometriosis.
Methods: This was a prospective, cross-sectional study carried out between February 2019 and October 2020 at the general gynecology clinic at University College London Hospital, London, UK. All premenopausal women aged 18-50 years, who were examined consecutively by a single experienced examiner and underwent a detailed TVS scan, were eligible for inclusion.
Deep Learning and Numerical Analysis for Bladder Outflow Obstruction and Detrusor Underactivity Diagnosis in Men: A Novel Urodynamic Evaluation Scheme.
Neurourol Urodyn
January 2025
Department of Urology, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.
Objectives: To automatically identify and diagnose bladder outflow obstruction (BOO) and detrusor underactivity (DUA) in male patients with lower urinary tract symptoms through urodynamics exam.
Patients And Methods: We performed a retrospective review of 1949 male patients who underwent a urodynamic study at two institutions. Deep Convolutional Neural Networks scheme combined with a short-time Fourier transform algorithm was trained to perform an accurate diagnosis of BOO and DUA, utilizing five-channel urodynamic data (consisting of uroflowmetry, urine volume, intravesical pressure, abdominal pressure, and detrusor pressure).
