Fungal bezoar formation is a complication of fungal urinary tract infections that are usually caused by Candida species and other fungal types. They can form in any site along the urinary tract and may cause an obstruction to the urine flow that would require drainage by nephrostomy, a ureteric stent, and sometimes surgical intervention is needed....
Background
Chylous ascites is rare but still a recognized complication of retroperitoneal surgeries caused mostly by inadvertent trauma to lymphatic channels. In this article, we present a case report and literature review of adult patient, with malignant tumor of upper urinary tract, who developed chylous leak after open nephrectomy.
Case present...
Background and Objectives
Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is an emerging disease threatening the world with a rapid increase in cases and deaths since it was first identified in December 2019. Adequate knowledge, practice, and attitudes (KPA) toward COVID-19 among physicians at the frontline defense against the COVID-19 pandemic may enhance the...
Introduction
Intravesical chemotherapy instillation immediately after tumor resection is a well-known practice in the management of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Despite being largely well tolerated in most cases, it is not devoid of severe and life-threatening complications.
Case Presentation
We present an unusual case of bladder perforatio...
Introduction
Ureteroscopy with pneumatic lithotripsy is a relatively safe procedure for the management of the ureteral stone disease. However; subcapsular hematoma and even huge perinephric hematoma are potentially serious events that may complicate this procedure and must be kept in mind.
Case presentation
We present a case of huge perinephric he...
Fibroepithelial polyps are benign tumors of mesodermal origin that usually arise on the surface of the skin and to a lesser extent in the urinary tract; however, their presence on the penis is extremely unusual. We report the case of a 73-year-old male with an extremely large broad-based penile fibroepithelial polyp (FEP) involving the penile shaft...
Uncertainty remains whether it is best for men to void in a sitting or standing position. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of standing and sitting voiding position on uroflowmetry parameters and post void residual urine (PVRU) in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and heal...
Objective: To compare three groups of patients who underwent uncomplicated ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URSL) and to evaluate whether stenting could be eliminated after the procedure, as there is no consensus about whether a ureteric stent should be placed after uncomplicated ureteroscopy for stone retrieval.
Patients and methods: In this randomised...
Background Aims: To test the old notion that stones get impacted in the ureter at one of three sites of narrowing: the pelviureteric junction, the middle ureter at the site where the ureter crosses anterior to iliac vessels, and the vesicoureteric junction.
Materials and Methods: A total of 149 patients who were admitted due to ureteral stones were...
Background:
There is no consensus about whether a double-J ureteric stent (DJ-US) should be placed following uncomplicated ureteroscopy for stone retrieval. This study aimed to compare three groups of patients who underwent uncomplicated ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URSL) and to evaluate whether stents could be eliminated after the procedure.
Method...
Congenital anterior urethrocutaneous fistula of the male urethra is a rare deformity, frequently located at the subcoronal level. It is usually accompanied by anorectal and genitourinary malformations, but may present as a very rare, isolated anomaly along with a normal urethra and meatus. The adult type of isolated congenital anterior urethrocutan...
Abstract
Objectives: This open label, phase I clinical trial (NCT02945462)
using 2 consecutive intracavernous autologous bone marrow-
derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) for the first
time in the treatment of diabetic patients with erectile dysfunction
(ED). The primary outcome is to assess the safety and
tolerability of intracavernous autolog...
The incidence of fungal urinary tract infections has been increasing and is usually linked with the use of systemic chemotherapy, use of immunosuppressive medications, and overuse of antibiotics. Non-candida urinary tract infections are uncommon. Blastoschizomyces capitatus is an emerging invasive infection in immunosuppressed patients. Urinary inf...
A 29-year-old man with hypospadias and bilateral undescended testicles presented with recurrent attacks of lower urinary tract infections and painful ejaculation. He was diagnosed to have very large bilateral seminal vesicle stones. The pelvis X-ray showed two radio-densities located in the pelvis with symmetrical appearance while Ultrasound showed...
To investigate prostate-specific antigen density as a predictor for pathologic upstaging in patients initially thought to have unilateral prostate cancer.
We analyzed 438 patients with unilateral prostate cancer in prostate biopsy samples that were treated with radical prostatectomy. Bilateral or extracapsular growth in the final surgical specimens...
