It is associated with aging and occurs in a latent or in a clinical form in 30%-40% of men by age 30-50 years and increases to 75% in men by age 80. The cause of this disease is not well understood; however, certain factors are commonly linked to its development. These factors include genetic predisposition and exposure to androgens and other hormones, infectious agents, and environmental and dietary factors. [1] However, the nutrient deficiencies and excesses that are associated with it remain undetermined. Men with high blood folate levels were at greater risk of high-grade (more aggressive) prostate cancer compared with men with lower folate levels. Folate, a vitamin obtained from foods and supplements, is important for maintaining cell health. Men with higher blood folate levels are at greater risk of highgrade (more aggressive) prostate cancer compared with men with lower folate levels [2].","PeriodicalId":477131,"journal":{"name":"Journal of urology and renal diseases","volume":"298 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135253589","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}

While the majority of cases reported in the literature describe transurethral resection as the initial approach, poor visibility and large tumor burden, particularly in the pediatric population, may obviate successful management. We reviewed the literature and report a case in which the bleeding mass was acutely managed with an open partial cystectomy with no long-term complications, including no tumor recurrence or progression. Case Presentation: A healthy 16 year-old, non-smoking male presented with severe gross hematuria causing hemodynamically instability requiring management with open partial cystectomy. Initial transurethral resection was attempted, however poor visibility and large tumor burden prevented adequate resection. The case was converted to an open approach and a partial","PeriodicalId":477131,"journal":{"name":"Journal of urology and renal diseases","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135647589","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}
