Objective: To study the weight reduction of prostatic tissue removed during transurethral resection.
Method: 22 hyperplastic prostate glands enucleated via a transvesical approach were resected in vitro, under conditions as close as possible to in vivo resection in 11 cases. The authors compared the weight of the enucleated prostates with the weight of fresh resection chips and the weight of chips fixed in Bouin solution.
Results: The weight of the chips was 28% lower than that of the prostates, while the weight of chips fixed in Bouin solution was 8% higher than that of the fresh chips.
Conclusion: Transurethral resection causes a 28% loss of the weight of resected prostatic tissue and fixation in Bouin solution of these same chips increases their weight by an average of 8%.

Purpose: To compare the effect on sexual function of ejaculation-sparing enucleation of the prostate using Thulium: YAG laser (ES-ThuLEP) versus continuous-wave Thulium Fiber Laser (ES-ThuFLEP).
Methods: 112 patients with lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia who wished to preserve ejaculation were treated. 58 patients underwent ES-ThuLEP (Group A) using the Cyber TM generator.

Objective: A number of susceptibility genes in prostate tissue have been identified to be associated with prostate cancer (PCa) risk. However, the reported genes based on assessing prostate tissue could not fully explain PCa genetic susceptibility. It is believed that genes functioning in the immune system may fill in the gap of some missing heritability.

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are key stroma cells that play dominant roles in the migration and invasion of several types of cancer through the secretion of inflammatory cytokine IL-17A. This study aims to identify the potential role and regulatory mechanism of CAFs-secreted IL-17A in the migration and invasion of prostate cancer (PC). CAFs and normal fibroblasts (NFs) were obtained from fresh PC and its adjacent normal tissues, respectively.

Background Currently, there is no data on the prevalence of urethral stricture illness in India. For short-segment bulbar urethral stricture, end-to-end anastomosis is the gold standard of care. The purpose of this study was to find where the direct vision internal urethrotomy (DVIU) exists in today's era.

Objectives: This study aimed to clinically validate the six-gene prognostic molecular clinical risk score (MCRS) for the prediction of aggressive prostate cancer in diagnostic biopsy tissue.
Methods: MCRS was evaluated in prostate biopsy tissue from a Swedish cohort of men with prostate cancer (UPCA, = 100). The primary outcome of adverse pathology and secondary outcomes of high primary Gleason (≥G4) and high pathological T-stage (≥T3) were assessed by likelihood ratio statistics and area under the receiver operating characteristic curves from logistic regression models; time to biochemical recurrence was assessed by likelihood ratio statistics and C-indexes from Cox proportional hazard regression models.
