94 children (109 kidneys) with congenital hydronephrosis were treated in 1989-1997. 67 of them underwent 76 plastic operations: Andersen-Hynes operation on the ureteropelvic segment without pelvic resection (n = 53), antevasal pyelopyelo- and ureteropyeloanastomosis (n = 18), ureteropyelolysis (n = 5). Excellent, good and satisfactory results were obtained in 16.5, 50.6 and 30.4% of cases, respectively. The analysis of changes in the renal-cortical index before and after plastic operation with reference to hydronephrosis stage and form, type of the pelvis evidenced that the best treatment outcomes were achieved in children with open hydronephrosis stage II having extrarenal pelvis. Poor outcomes occurred in closed hydronephrosis stage III and intrarenal pelvis. Renal planimetry, as one of highly informative diagnostic techniques, can be used in assessing results obtained in hydronephrosis treatment.

Risk scoring system for evaluating pathological upstaging after radical nephroureterectomy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma: A multicenter study in Japan.
Int J Urol
January 2025
Division of Urology, Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Tottori University, Yonago, Tottori, Japan.
Objectives: Accurate preoperative staging of upper tract urothelial carcinoma is often difficult. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the preoperative factors associated with pathological upstaging in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma undergoing radical nephroureterectomy and to develop a risk-scoring system to assess pathological upstaging.
Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 386 patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma who underwent radical nephroureterectomy at Tottori University Hospital and affiliated hospitals between January 2015 and December 2021.

Background: A previously published study at Norrland University Hospital, Umeå, Sweden, found that in 29.5% of patients with urinary bladder cancer (UBC) who underwent cystectomy, incorrect cT-stage (clinical T-stage) was registered in the Swedish National Register of Urinary Bladder Cancer (SNRUBC). Tumor in bladder diverticulum (TIBD) and tumor-associated hydronephrosis (TAH) were common causes for misclassification.

Urology Department, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, Unidad de Medicina de Alta Especialidad N° 25, Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico.
Objective: We aimed to assess the impact of urinary diversion on survival in patients with advanced cervical cancer (CC) and hydronephrosis. Additionally, we examined the influence of other patient factors and urinary diversion type on survival.
Methods: A retrospective study analyzed survival in cervical cancer (CC) patients with hydronephrosis treated at two Mexican hospitals from 2011 to 2023.
When acute myocardial infarction meets renal abscess: Case report and literature review.

Institute of Gerontology, Guangzhou Geriatric Hospital, Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou, China.
Rationale: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the leading global cause of death from cardiovascular disease, and the mortality rate increases in the presence of comorbidities such as renal abscess. The treatment of AMI combined with renal abscess is challenging, especially in combination with urinary tract obstruction, as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can lead to progression of the renal abscess and deterioration of renal function. Currently, there is no consensus on the treatment of renal abscess in AMI.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Saku Central Hospital Advanced Care Center, Saku City 385-0051, Nagano, Japan.
Background: Malignant transformation (MT) of mature cystic teratoma (MCT) has a poor prognosis, especially in advanced cases. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) has an inhibitory effect on MT.
Case Summary: Herein, we present a case in which CCRT had a reduction effect preoperatively.
