This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of PUL using Japanese real-world multicenter data.Methods: Indications for PUL were based on relevant guidelines in Japan. The preoperative patient status, postoperative progress at 1 and 3 months, and perioperative complications were evaluated. Also, we compared preoperative urinary retention and nonurinary retention patients, and prostate volumes <30, 30 to <50, and ≥50 mL.Results: A total of 160 patients were included in the study. The mean age was 75 years and the mean prostate volume was 44 mL. The International Prostate Symptom Score, quality of life score, maximum flow rate, and postvoid residual volume significantly improved 1 and 3 months postoperatively compared to preoperatively. The catheter-free rates in the preoperative urinary retention group were 58.1%, 72.1%, 83.7%, and 88.4% on postoperative days 1, 7, 30, and 90, respectively. The catheter-free rates in the nonurinary retention group were 94.9%, 98.3%, and 100% on postoperative days 1, 7, and 14, respectively. The group with a prostate volume ≥50 mL had a longer operation time and used significantly more implants; however, no difference was observed in the postoperative urinary status among the three groups.Conclusions: PUL can be considered a safe and effective procedure for both preoperative urinary retention and nonurinary retention patients with prostate volumes <100 mL in older patients with comorbidities.","PeriodicalId":14323,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Urology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142583079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As no mesh kits were available in our country, we used a self-cut polypropylene mesh (Japanese-style transvaginal mesh) for the procedures. Objective anatomical restoration and complications were evaluated during outpatient examinations.Results: Overall, 711 patients were included in this study. Over 5 years, the recurrence rate of stage 2 or higher prolapse at the operated compartment was 8.6% (61 cases), whereas that at the other compartments was 12.8% (91 cases). The frequency of recurrence was highest at 3 months and decreased with each passing year in both compartments. During the follow-up period, 28 patients (three at the operated compartment and 25 at the other compartments) required reoperation owing to recurrence. Overall, there were 13 cases of mesh exposure (1.8%), including two (0.28%) in the bladder, 10 (1.4%) in the vagina, and one (0.14%) in the rectum. Urinary incontinence surgery was performed in 69 patients (9.7%) during the follow-up period.Conclusions: The frequencies of recurrence requiring reoperation and mesh-related complications were low, and vaginal mesh exposure was mostly asymptomatic. Therefore, the Japanese-style transvaginal mesh is safe and effective.","PeriodicalId":14323,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Urology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142564197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Castration-resistant PCa persists, however, with some of these tumors evolving to androgen receptor (AR)-independent forms like neuroendocrine PCa. The development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to PCa is therefore crucial. This review provides an overview of recent basic research in PCa, focusing on two main areas: PCa cells and their tumor microenvironments. The first section describes current knowledge on the intricate mechanisms of AR signaling pathways, emphasizing the roles of coactivators and chromatin state alterations in gene regulation. Genomic analyses have revealed recurrent mutations and copy number alterations critical for precision medicine. Liquid biopsy has become a promising tool for real-time tumor monitoring, identifying genetic alterations in circulating-tumor DNA or extracellular vesicles. The second section describes the tumor microenvironment of PCa, highlighting its immunosuppressive landscape and the potential of combining ADT with immunotherapy. Advanced techniques, including single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics offer insights into cellular heterogeneity and interactions within the tumor microenvironment, paving the way for novel therapeutic strategies. Integration of these diverse research areas will provide a comprehensive understanding of the current state and future directions of PCa research, underscoring the importance of personalized medicine and the dynamic nature of cancer treatment strategies.","PeriodicalId":14323,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Urology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142545427","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, survival outcomes of RCC according to times have not been fully elucidated, especially in the real-world setting. This study aimed to assess the survival improvement over time in RCC treated with nephrectomy by analyzing a longitudinal cohort using propensity score matching (PSM).Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 960 patients with RCC who underwent radical or partial nephrectomy between 1981 and 2018. Patients were divided into two groups according to the time of surgery (1981-1999 vs. 2000-2018). Using PSM, overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were compared between the two groups.Results: Overall, 255 and 705 patients underwent surgery in the earlier (1981-1999) and recent (2000-2018) eras, and PSM derived a matched cohort of 466 patients (233 patients per each group). All patients in the earlier era cohort received open surgeries, whereas about a half (47.4%) of patients in the recent era cohort received minimally-invasive (laparoscopic/robotic) surgeries. After PSM, 137 (29.4%) patients developed recurrence, 105 (22.5%) died of RCC, and 113 (24.2%) died from other causes, with a median follow-up period of 90 months. The recent era cohort had significantly longer OS, CSS, and RFS than the earlier era cohort.Conclusions: Patients with RCC treated in the recent era (2000-2018) showed significantly longer survival than those treated in the earlier era (1981-1999). The improved survival might be attributable to the prevalence of minimally-invasive (laparoscopic/robotic) surgeries.","PeriodicalId":14323,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Urology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142521905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
