Temporary double-J (DJ) stents, various metallic stent designs, or definitive corrective surgery can be the options management for ureteric stricture. As an alternative from DJ stents, Memokath-051TM (MMK-051TM) can be inserted in strictured ureters post radiotherapy for advanced prostate cancer patients. We present a case of an advanced prostate cancer which bilateral DJ Stents placed within MMK-051TM. A 76-year-old man with underlying hormone sensitive advanced prostate cancer completed radiotherapy. Post radiotherapy he developed bilateral ureteric strictures and bilateral DJ stents inserted. He had to underwent multiple change of stents due to blockage. Patient had MMK-051TM inserted, however complicated with blockage due to encrustation. Improvisation method done by putting the bilateral DJ stents within the MMK-051TM. Patient had no more blockage of MMK-051TM after the placement of DJ stents within it. However, patient succumbed to death a year after the last procedure. Our case report highlighted encrustation of metallic ureteric stents and a novel approach to overcome this problem. Introduction of additional DJ stents not only reduced the incidence of MMK-051TM blockage but also improved the quality of life of the patient.","PeriodicalId":216890,"journal":{"name":"Cancer Urology","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139269469","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To analyze our own results of the course of early postoperative period in patients who underwent surgical treatment of kidney tumors: partial nephrectomy (PN) and radical nephrectomy (RN) and to identify risk factors for the development of acute kidney injury (AKI).Materials and methods. The study included 399 patients, of which 276 patients (69.17 %) underwent PN, 123 (30.83 %) underwent RN. According to the clinical stage of the disease, patients in the PN and RN groups were distributed as follows: cT1a – 160 (91.95 %) and 14 (8.05 %), cT1b – 99 (61.11 %) and 63 (38.89 %) and cT2a – 17 (26.98 %) and 46 (73.02 %), respectively. Operations were performed with open (1.0 %), laparoscopic (39.35 %) and robot-assisted (59.65 %) accesses. AKI was evaluated by the changes in serum creatinine and glomerular filtration rate before surgery and 1–3 days after in accordance with KDIGO criteria.Results. The overall incidence of AKI after surgical treatment for kidney cancer at stages cT1a–cT2a was 27.57 %. The incidence of AKI after RN was 65.04 %, after PN – 11.23 %. At stages cT1a, cT1b, cT2a, after nephron-sparing surgery and radical treatment, this indicator was 9.37; 11.11; 29.41 % and 71.43; 63.49; 65.22 %, respectively.

To preserve kidney function, PN is the operation of choice in surgical treatment of kidney tumors at stages cT1–cT2a. After RN, AKI development was observed 6 times more often than after PN. The following statistically significant predictors of AKI after PN were identified: presence of initial chronic kidney disease in patients, tumor size, operative time above 190 minutes, type of kidney ischemia used, and warm ischemia time above 25 minutes.","PeriodicalId":216890,"journal":{"name":"Cancer Urology","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139273193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Between January of 2017 and December of 2019 at the Central Clinical Hospital “RZD-medicine”, 49 patients (mean age 67.8 ± 7.5 years) with verified prostate cancer diagnosis underwent high dose-rate brachytherapy in the regimen of 2 sessions of 15 Gy with 192Ir source.

Patients were divided into 2 groups: 1st – patients with incidental prostate cancer (n = 21) who previously (more than 6 months ago, mean time 9.4 ± 2.4 months) underwent transurethral prostatectomy; 2nd – patients with verified prostate cancer (mean prostate volume 56 cm3) and obstructive symptoms without previous transurethral prostatectomy (n = 28).Results. In both groups, no intraoperative complications were observed. In 6 (28 %) patients of the 1st group and 2 patients of the 2nd group, grade II genitourinary toxicity in the form of moderate dysuria and nocturia was observed.
