Guo, Christopher G. Wood, Shahrokh F. Shariat
OBJECTIVETo assess whether tumour architecture can help to refine the prognosis
of patients treated with nephroureterectomy (NU) for urothelial carcinoma (UC)
of the upper urinary tract (UT), as the prognostic value of tumour architecture
(papillary vs sessile) in UTUC remains elusive.PATIENTS AND METHODSThe study
included 1363 patients with UTUC and treated with radical NU at 12 centres

Prognostic significance of p27Kip1 and Ki‐67 expression in carcinoma of the renal pelvis and ureterBJU International - Tập 86 Số 1 - Trang 14-19 - 2000
Takao Kamai, Kentaro Takagi, Hidekazu Asami, Yuji Ito, Kyoko Arai, Kozo Yoshida
Objective To determine the significance of p27Kip1 (p27) for tumour behaviour
and prognosis of patients with transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the renal
pelvis and ureter. Patients and methods Using immunohistochemical staining, the
relationship was evaluated between p27 protein level (low < 50%, high > 50%)
and the Ki‐67 labelling index (low < 30%, high > 30%) and clinicopathological

Postoperative nomogram to predict cancer‐specific survival after radical nephroureterectomy in patients with localised and/or locally advanced upper tract urothelial carcinoma without metastasisBJU International - Tập 114 Số 5 - Trang 733-740 - 2014

ObjectiveTo propose and validate a nomogram to predict cancer‐specific survival
(CSS) after radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) in patients with pT1–3/N0–x upper
tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).Patients and MethodsThe international and the
French national collaborative groups on UTUC pooled data from 3387 patients
treated with RNU. Only 2233 chemotherapy naïve pT1–3/N0–x patients were included

Independent prognostic value of tumour diameter and tumour necrosis in upper urinary tract urothelial carcinomaBJU International - Tập 103 Số 8 - Trang 1052-1057 - 2009
Giuseppe Simone, Rocco Papalia, Andrea Loreto, Costantino Leonardo, Steno Sentinelli, Michele Gallucci
OBJECTIVETo identify significant prognostic indicators of upper urinary tract
(UUT) urothelial carcinoma (UC) and to assess a risk stratification of
patients.PATIENTS AND METHODSWe retrospectively analysed data from 162 patients
with non‐metastatic UC primarily occurring in UUT treated with open
nephroureterectomy. Variables assessed included age, gender, pT, tumour grade,
tumour necrosis extensio... hiện toàn bộ
Lymphangiogenesis occurs in upper tract urothelial carcinoma and correlates with lymphatic tumour dissemination and poor prognosisBJU International - Tập 103 Số 8 - Trang 1040-1046 - 2009

OBJECTIVETo describe the lymphatic vessel density and to determine the
functional and prognostic significance of tumoral lymphatic vessels in upper
tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).PATIENTS AND METHODSThe study included 65
patients who had a radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for UTUC between 1997 and
2004. All pathological slides were re‐evaluated by one reference pathologist and
clinical data wer... hiện toàn bộ
The effect of male circumcision on sexualityBJU International - Tập 99 Số 3 - Trang 619-622 - 2007
Dai‐Sik Kim, Myung‐Geol Pang
OBJECTIVETo prospectively study, using a questionnaire, the sexuality of men
circumcised as adults compared to uncircumcised men, and to compare their sex
lives before and after circumcision.SUBJECTS AND METHODSThe study included 373
sexually active men, of whom 255 were circumcised and 118 were not. Of the 255
circumcised men, 138 had been sexually active before circumcision, and all were

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of adult medical male circumcision on female
sexual satisfaction.SUBJECTS AND METHODSWe investigated self‐reported sexual
satisfaction among 455 women partners of men circumcised in a randomized trial
of male circumcision for the prevention of human immunodeficiency virus in

Laparoscopic live‐donor nephrectomy: modifications for developing nationsBJU International - Tập 93 Số 9 - Trang 1291-1295 - 2004
Ashok Kumar, Himanshu Chaudhary, Aneesh Srivastava, M. Raghavendran
Authors from Lucknow describe their experience with laparoscopic live‐donor
nephrectomy, and describe modifications they have used to make the procedure
cost‐effective for developing nations. As the urological world is increasingly
realising, this approach to renal transplantation is increasing the number of
live‐donor kidneys being offered for the many patients with end‐stage renal
failure. In th... hiện toàn bộ
