This study intended to assess the detrusor function with invasive urodynamics (UDS) during the first 15 days of SCI. This prospective observational study was carried out from January 2020 to June 2021 and consecutive stable patients older than 18 years of age who had a history of traumatic SCI within the past 15 days were screened for inclusion. For each patient, the International Standards for Neurological Classification of SCI Worksheet was filled. All patients underwent bedside invasive UDS within 15 days of injury. There were a total of 41 patients with a mean age of 35 years. The thoracic cord was most commonly involved (46.3%) with Type A AISA grade being the most common (68.2%). The mean duration of injury at the time of UDS was 6 days. Abnormality in the filling phase could be identified in six patients. Three patients had neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO), with one having a high-pressure phasic NDO and one having a sustained NDO. Two patients had poor compliance and one had borderline poor compliance. None of the patients generated any detrusor pressure during voiding cystometry. In patients with SCI, 14.5% of the patients had abnormal findings during the filling phase on the UDS performed within 15 days of the injury. These findings are in stark contrast to the traditional understanding that the detrusor is acontractile during the early phase of the SCI and merit further evaluation.","PeriodicalId":47352,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Urology","volume":"14 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139145506","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}

This study assessed the association between our population’s LUTS and sleep disturbances. This was a prospective observational study. A total of 123 male patients with a history of LUTS aged more than 40 years were recruited from urology outpatient clinic. International Prostate Symptom Score was utilized to assess LUTS. To determine the quality of sleep, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used. Berlin questionnaire (BQ) was used for screening obstructive sleep apnea. A total of 123 participants were enrolled in this study. The mean age of the participants was 61 ± 11.1 years. Nocturia >3 episodes were significantly more in patients with PSQI >5 (P < 0.05). There was a greater prevalence of severe LUTS in patients with PSQI >5 (P < 0.05). The association between LUTS and BQ score showed an increased prevalence of severe symptoms in patients with high BQ. Patients with PSQI >5 had more severe LUTS (53% of patients) compared to patients with PSQI ≤5 (5% of patients) (P = 0.000). Patients with PSQI >5 had overall poorer quality of life (QOL) scores, with QOL being 5 and 6 in 18% and 4.8% of the patients, respectively. There is a significant association between the prevalence of nocturia, moderate-to-severe LUTS, and the existence of sleep disorders. Therefore, screening for sleep disturbances may be performed on male patients who present with LUTS.","PeriodicalId":47352,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Urology","volume":"3 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139145485","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}

We describe our novel surgical technique and its short-term results. This urethroplasty technique is a single-stage dorsal inlay buccal mucosal graft placement with subcoronal vertical sagittal ventral urethrotomy without glansplasty. Twenty-one operated patients were followed up at 2 months and 6 months postoperatively. We studied the functional outcome of the International Prostate Symptom Score, quality of life (QoL) score, maximum flow rate, postvoid residual (PVR) urine, and reconstructed urethral luminal caliber. Sexual function was studied via a brief male sexual function inventory. Hypospadias objective score evaluation (HOSE) was used to assess the cosmesis. Patient satisfaction was evaluated using the global response assessment score (GRA). FNS is seen commonly associated with lichen sclerosus (n = 12). Nine patients had stricture that extended into the distal penile urethra. The mean stricture length was 2.76 cm. At the end of the study, a significant improvement in mean IPPS (18.81), mean QoL score (2.25), mean Qmax (20.94 mL/s), mean PVR (103.05 mL), and mean urethral caliber (16.06 Fr) were noted. No difference in sexual drive and erectile function but significant improvement in ejaculation was noted. All patients had single-stream urine, reconstructed urethral caliber ≥16Fr, HOSE ≥14, and GRA ≥2 at 6 months. Except for two patients, all had vertical slit-like meatus. This technique is feasible, with good cosmetic, functional, and subjective outcomes with marked patient’ satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":47352,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Urology","volume":"76 S337","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139146518","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}

In this systematic review, we summarize the literature on IRE for prostate cancer published over the last decade. PubMed and EMBASE were searched with the end date of May 2023 to find relevant publications on prostate cancer ablation using IRE. Original studies with focal IRE as the primary curative treatment which reported on functional or oncological outcomes were included. The bibliography of relevant studies was also scanned to identify suitable articles. A total of 14 studies reporting on 899 patients treated with IRE for localized prostate cancer were included. Of all the studies reviewed, 77% reported on recurrence within the zone of ablation, and it ranged from 0% to 38.9% for in-field and 3.6% to 28% for out-of-field recurrence. Although, a standardised follow-up protocol was not followed, all the studies employed serial prostate-specific antigen monitoring, a multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging, and a biopsy (6–12 months post-treatment). Across all the studies, 58% reported that the urinary continence returned to the pretreatment levels and 25% reported a minor decrease in the continence from the baseline at 12-months of follow-up. Erections sufficient for intercourse varied from 44% to 75% at the baseline to 55% to 100% at 12-months of follow-up across all the studies. IRE, as a focal therapy, shows promising results with minimal complications and reasonably effective oncological control, but the data comparing it to the standard of care is still lacking. Future research should focus on randomized definitive comparisons between IRE, radical prostatectomy, and radiation therapy.","PeriodicalId":47352,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Urology","volume":" 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139142697","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}

Surgical correction techniques, including plication and corporotomy, lack standardized guidelines. This study aims to address the paucity of high-level evidence by comprehensively reviewing the outcomes of PC correction procedures in patients with and without hypospadias. This will inform clinical decision-making and provide insights for future research and meta-analyses. We conducted this scoping review in accordance with the JBI Manual for Evidence Synthesis and PRISMA-ScR guidelines. An extensive literature search was performed and comparative studies published in English up to June 2023 were included. The studies were divided into three categories: PC without hypospadias, PC with hypospadias, and studies comparing two or more materials for covering the ventral corporotomy. Data extraction comprised author details, patient characteristics, study design, interventions, outcomes, and complications. Methodological quality was assessed using the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale. Forty-two studies were included in the review, which collectively comprised 3180 patients. Thirteen comparative studies reported the outcomes of surgery for congenital PC without hypospadias, 22 studies compared different techniques of PC correction in patients with hypospadias and 7 studies compared the type of materials for coverage following ventral corporotomy. In cases of PC without hypospadias, the most commonly reported surgery was the Nesbit’s plication. For PC with hypospadias correction, the results of ventral corporotomy were superior to that of dorsal plication in most of the studies. The two-stage repair had better results when compared to the one-stage repair for patients with perineo-scrotal hypospadias. In studies comparing materials for coverage of ventral corporotomy, the tunica vaginalis flap or graft was utilized most commonly. The majority of the studies reported a success rate ranging from 85% to 100%. The methodological quality was high in all but four studies. Plication procedures are generally preferred for PC without hypospadias, but they result in penile shortening. For those with hypospadias, corporotomy is associated with superior outcomes than plication, especially for those with severe curvature and redo procedures. For ventral corporotomy coverage, the tunica vaginalis flap or graft is the most commonly reported tissue in the literature.","PeriodicalId":47352,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Urology","volume":" 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139143725","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}

Various modalities of pain control techniques, such as intercostal nerve block (ICNB) and peritract infiltration (PTI), are being studied for better pain management. This study compares the efficacy of ICNB with PTI for postoperative pain management. A double-blinded, prospective, randomized control study was conducted, in which 0.25% bupivacaine, either ICNB or PTI, was given at the puncture site at the end of PCNL. The primary outcome was a comparison of postoperative pain score measured with resting Visual analogue Scale (r-VAS) and dynamic VAS (D-VAS) recorded at 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 10 h, 12 h, 24 h, and at discharge. Injection ketorolac was given as rescue analgesia. Secondary outcomes include time to first rescue analgesia and total analgesic requirement (TAR). Sixty patients were randomized into two equal groups with 63.3% male and 36.6% female, with a mean age of 37.25 ± 13.09 years. In Group ICNB, 24 (40%) and 6 (10%) patients and in Group PTI, 21 (35%) and 9 (15%) patients underwent standard and mini PCNL, respectively, in each group. All cases were PCNL doen in prone position. The mean R-VAS and D-VAS scores at 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 48 h were similar in both groups. The mean TAR was 56.84 ± 0.33.00 mg and 55.54 ± 0.29.64 mg of injection ketorolac in Group ICNB and PTI, respectively (P < 0.894). The time to first rescue analgesic demand were 7.11 ± 4.898 h and 6.25 ± 3.354 h (P < 0.527).
