To assess the final pathology risk in MRI-positive grade group (GG) 2 prostate
cancer (PCa) patients undergoing targeted (TB) and systematic (SB) biopsies, and
thereby, the possibility of active surveillance (AS) in this population. We
included 242 consecutive men diagnosed with GG2 PCa by a combination of SB and
software-based fusion TB undergoing a radical prostatectomy (RP). The primary

Prostate cancer care in the Middle East is highly variable and access to
specialist multidisciplinary management is limited. Academic tertiary referral
centers offer cutting-edge diagnosis and treatment; however, in many parts of
the region, patients are managed by non-specialists with limited resources. Due
to many factors including lack of awareness and lack of prostate-specific
antigen (PSA) sc... hiện toàn bộ

Daniel Wilby, Kay Thomas, Eleanor Ray, Barnaby Chappell, Timothy O’Brien
Transurethral resection of bladder tumours (TURBT) using a wire loop remains the
gold-standard treatment for bladder tumours, but it is associated with
unacceptably high early recurrence rates after first resection. Improvements to
standard resection techniques and a range of optical and technological advances
offer exciting possibilities for improving outcomes. Early second resection has
been sho... hiện toàn bộ

intrarenal surgery (RIRS) in patients with negative preoperative urine culture
(UC), and to establish a nomogram for predicting postoperative fever based on
these risk factors. This study collected 322 patients with negative UC who

With the advent of improved diagnostic and imaging techniques, it is now
possible to detect renal cancers in their very early stages, when they are still
present as small renal masses. In these situations, use of laparoscopic partial
nephrectomy (LPN) techniques are indicated and have gained acceptance in major
medical institutions worldwide, offering comparable oncological outcomes and
improving ... hiện toàn bộ
