Patients favored RAPN when comparing both approaches directly and were more likely to recommend RAPN to a friend.Conclusion: This is the first study on the intraindividual perception of OPN vs. RAPN, revealing a comparative judgement clearly in favor of RAPN.

Age, sex, and laboratory examination of all patients were collected. Infrared spectroscopy was conducted for stone analysis.Results: The most common stone component was calcium oxalate (43.0%), followed by uric acid (UA) stone (35.4%), calcium phosphate (12.10%), infection stone (9.0%), and cystine (0.5%). The highest stone prevalence appeared in patients aged over 60 years and increased progressively with age. Furthermore, patients with UA stones were more likely to have a lower urinary pH. Additionally, patients with infection stones showed higher incidence of urinary tract infections than those with other types of stones. Patients with UA stones had higher average serum UA and creatinine levels. UA stones are more likely to form multiple stones compared to stones of other composition. The volume of infectious stones is larger compared to stones of other compositions.Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of gaining a deeper understanding of bladder stone composition, as it can lead to more effective evaluation, treatment, and prevention of stone disease.","PeriodicalId":23414,"journal":{"name":"Urologia Internationalis","volume":" ","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12060838/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143796526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to its infrequency and the absence of clear diagnostic criteria, such cases are often overlooked.Case presentation: In 3 reported cases, patients presented with typical symptoms such as dyspnea and chest pain. Following the diagnosis of urinary-derived pleural effusion, various treatment strategies were successfully implemented. All patients subsequently underwent surgery for urinary calculi during follow-up, without experiencing similar severe complications.Conclusion: Effective management of urinary-derived pleural effusion necessitates a multidisciplinary approach aimed at addressing the underlying urological issues. Once the urinary tract is treated, pleural effusion generally resolves quickly. These cases underscore the significance of early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, and clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for this condition to facilitate early diagnosis and individualized management.","PeriodicalId":23414,"journal":{"name":"Urologia Internationalis","volume":" ","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143711128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Papillary RCC (pRCC) was less frequent in patients under 50, with its incidence increasing with age compared to other subtypes (p = 0.006). There was a significant relationship found between hypertension and pathological subtypes (p = 0.002), with pRCC and unclassified RCC contributing to this difference.

Most urethral strictures had an iatrogenic origin (89.3%), length under 2 cm (75%) and were located in the mid-bulbar urethra (56.4%). The main variable was treatment failure, defined as recurrent urethral stricture at the same location in urethrography or urethroscopy, or the need for dilation, internal urethrotomy or open urethral reconstruction. Secondary variables analyzed were length of stricture, suspected etiology, previous endoscopic procedures, hospital stay, days of catheterization, and postoperative complications such as infections or hematuria.Results: Treatment failure occurred in 61.4% of patients (104). Idiopathic strictures and those under 2 cm had better outcomes. Strictures longer than 2 cm and those with previous endoscopic procedures demonstrated a higher failure rate. More than 90% of recurrences occurred within the first 2 years of follow-up. Complications of DVIU were scarce with postoperative urinary tract infection/urosepsis in 5.7% and prolonged hematuria in 10%. The mean hospital stay was 2.9 days.Conclusion: DVIU is a safe and simple technique, with reasonable efficacy in primary cases of bulbar urethral strictures under 2 cm in length.

The primary research question is whether the MAP score can predict intraoperative and postoperative complications in patients with a BMI greater than 30.Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent m-PCNL at a tertiary care centre between August 2018 and August 2023. Patients with kidney stones larger than 2 cm and a BMI >30 were included. They were categorised based on MAP scores (<3 vs. ≥3). Data on operation time, fluoroscopy time, hospital stay, and complications were compared. Statistical analyses included t tests, chi-square tests, and logistic regression to assess risk factors for postoperative fever.Results: Among 87 patients, those with a MAP score ≥3 had a significantly higher rate of postoperative fever (17.1% vs. 3.8%, p = 0.035). There were no significant differences between groups in operation time, fluoroscopy time, hospital stay, or blood transfusion needs. Logistic regression showed that a higher MAP score (OR: 6.614, p = 0.045) and increased stone burden (OR: 1.003, p = 0.040) were significant predictors of postoperative fever.Conclusion: The MAP score is a significant predictor of postoperative fever in obese patients undergoing m-PCNL. Higher MAP scores are associated with a greater risk of fever, suggesting that careful monitoring and preventive measures are essential for patients with higher MAP scores. Further multicentre studies are needed to validate these findings and improve predictive accuracy.","PeriodicalId":23414,"journal":{"name":"Urologia Internationalis","volume":" ","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143639773","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
