Introduction
The presence of ureteral stones can cause pain, infections of urinary tract and hydronephrosis, resulting in the loss of renal function. For two decades, Ureteroscopy and laser stone fragmentation (URSL) attained a big rise and is the first line management for large ureteric stones and renal stones up to 2 cm. The present study was con...
Background
The most prevalent cancer of the urinary system and the fourth most frequent cancer in men is bladder cancer. Up to 45% of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancers (NMIBC), may develop into muscle-invasive disease within 5 years after initial diagnosis, depending on the risk profile. The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), which is an emerg...
Introduction:
Indications for treating Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia include reversing signs and symptoms or preventing the progression of the disease. Alpha-blockers are the most effective, least costly, and best tolerated of the drugs for relieving LUTS. The aim of the study is to investigate the immediate impact of alpha-blocker medications on l...
Purpose:
Perineal urethrostomy and urethroplasty are very good options for complex and long anterior urethral strictures. A perineal urethroplasty is usually a neglected option. To our knowledge, a comparative study between augmentation urethroplasty and perineal urethrostomy has been not conducted regarding subjective and patient reported outcome...
Objective: To discover the variables that may predict changes in blood pressure and blood sugar levels and to pinpoint the time frame during which such changes occur in patient with pheochromocytoma. Materials and Methodology: Consecutive patients undergoing surgery for pheochromocytoma over a 20-month period were included in this ethics review boa...
Eggshell-like renal calcification is a rare finding in patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) with only a few reported cases in literature.
Nutcracker syndrome is a rare vein compression disorder. It occurs when the abdominal aorta and superior mesenteric artery compress the left renal vein.
Bladder cancer is a growing health problem with the second most common urological malignancy. It accounts for around 7% of a new cancer diagnosis. Tobacco smoking is the most important risk factor accounting for around 50% of cases. Tobacco smokes contain aromatic amines and polycyclic hydrocarbons which are excreted through kidneys. The goal of tr...
Background:
Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the gold standard for benign prostatic enlargement; however, hemorrhage still remains one of the major complications.
Objective:
The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of tranexamic acid (TXA) in reducing intraoperative blood loss and need for blood transfusion. Seco...
Objective
Vesical Imaging Reporting and Data System (VIRADS) score was developed to standardize the reporting and staging of bladder tumors on pre-operative multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI). It helps in avoiding unnecessary repeat transurethral resection of bladder tumor (Re-TURBT) in high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (...
It is well known that urinary calculi are associated with urinary tract infections. Post-operative sepsis is one of the major complications after various endourological procedures for stone surgeries. These episodes of sepsis occur even in negative urine cultures. Stones have been found to harbour bacteria which on fragmentation causes bacteremia a...
Introduction:
Access into the collecting system is considered to be the most critical step for Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL).
Aim:
The present study provides a comparative view into antegrade air pyelography and retrograde air pyelography procedures for percutaneous renal access.
Materials and methods:
A cross-sectional study was conduct...
Introduction:
Upper urinary tract is accessed for various procedures. The maximum numbers of procedures are carried out in prone position. Perforation of the colon is a well-known complication. The incidence of retrorenal colon varies from 10-20% in prone position, but the chances of injury is around <1%. These facts lead us to review the occurren...
An obturator hernia is a rare variety of abdominal hernia that presents with a confusing clinical picture. We present a case of 74-year-old woman who admitted to our hospital because of abdominal distention, abdominal pain, and vomiting for 3 days. Incarcerated intestinal obstruction due to the right-sided obturator hernia was found preoperatively....
