After reading the article, I propose some considerations for which clarification would be helpful. It seems that NS RaRP was applied to patients in the low, intermediate and high-risk groups of localised prostate cancer, but it was not clearly stated in the study which criteria were used when making the decision to undergo NS surgery. How was the risk of extraprostatic spread evaluated? Was the NS decision made with preoperative magnetic resonance (MR) findings or by using a preoperative nomogram? This is an important factor and should be noted. There are many studies showing that additional surgical excision reduces the positive surgical margin in the final pathology in patients with a positive intraoperative frozen result of the neurovascular bundle [2, 3, 4]. There were 18 patients with positive surgical margins in the intraoperative frozen examination in your study, but it was stated that only 8 patients had additional surgical excision. Why was the additional surgical excision not performed in the remaining 10 patients with positive margins?","PeriodicalId":86295,"journal":{"name":"Urologia polska","volume":"75 1","pages":"110 - 110"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47046761","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 investigated the prognostic significance of NLR in patients undergoing radical cystectomy (RC) for bladder cancer (BC). Material and methods We retrospectively evaluated the data of 134 consecutive patients with BC who underwent RC between 2011 and 2017 at a single center. Overall survival (OS) was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared between NLR subpopulations using the log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard models were used to identify the variables affecting OS. Results At a median follow-up of 2.2 years, high NLR (>2.7) correlated with worse a survival outcome (p = 0.0345 in log-rank test), higher tumor stage (p = 0.0047), and higher frequency of positive lymph nodes (p = 0.0285). The univariate model showed that a high NLR (p = 0.038528), advanced pathological tumor stage (p = 0.000763), lymph node involvement (p = 0.013384), a high grade of cancer (p = 0.015611), lymphovascular invasion (LVI) (p = 0.001530), positive margins (p = 0.000890) and ureterocutaneostomy as urinary diversion (p = 0.038854) had a negative impact on OS. Tumor extending beyond the submucosa (>pT1) (hazard ratio 2.161, confidence interval 1058–4411, p = 0.0345) and lymphatic infiltration (hazard ratio 1.599, confidence interval 1028–2482, p = 0.037) have been recognized as independent risk factors of poor prognosis in multivariate Cox regression analysis.

Material and methods We critically reviewed the literature from January 2000 to December 2020 including studies comparing different surgical techniques.

Functional outcomes were evalutated in terms of percentual change of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and impaired renal function (IRF) on scintigraphy. In cases with a mean age <60 years, the mean decrease in eGFR after NSS was 11.7% and that of IRF 10.0%, whereas higher changes were found in cases with a mean age ≥60 years. For open NSS, the mean eGFR and IRF changes were 15.3% and 21.1%, respectively; using the laparoscopic approach, the mean percentual eGFR and IRF changes were 13.9% and 11.1%, respectively; in robotic cases, the mean eGFR and IRF changes were 10.8% and 13.1%, respectively.

The objective of this register-based study was to identify predictors of upgrading at prostatectomy in men with Grade group (GG) 1 and pre-treatment bpMRI. Material and methods This single-center study included men with GG 1 cancer on prediagnostic biopsy, who underwent bpMRI and robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) between March 2014 and September 2019. We estimated logistic regression models to explore predictors for upgrading. The explored potential predictors were age, PSA density, tumor stage and Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) score (dichotomised 1–3 versus 4–5). Results Upgrading was observed in 56% (73/130) of the men. PSA density was the only significant predictor for upgrading (unadjusted OR = 1.7, 95% CI 1.2; 2.4 adjusted OR = 1.7, 95% CI 1.2; 2.5). The probability of upgrading was lower for men with a PIRADS 1–3 than for PIRADS 4–5, but the difference was not statistically significant (adjusted OR 0.4, 95% CI 0.2; 1.1, p = 0.082). Among men with PI-RADS 1–3, the probability increased with increasing PSA density (p = 0.036). With PI-RADS 4–5 the probability of upgrading was high over the entire PSA density range. Conclusions PSA density is a clinically important factor to predict upgrading from GG1 when bpMRI shows PI-RADS 1–3. In men with PI-RADS 4–5 on bpMRI, the probability of an undetected GG 2–5 cancer is high regardless of the PSA density.","PeriodicalId":86295,"journal":{"name":"Urologia polska","volume":"75 1","pages":"35 - 40"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70778277","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}

Material and methods Observational and retrospective study of all urinary calculi analysis performed at the Centro Hospitalar do Tâmega e Sousa, Portugal – from January 2009 to September 2015. Calculi were analyzed by infrared spectroscopy. Results 302 analyses of urinary calculi were identified. Metabolic syndrome was diagnosed in 20.5% of patients. A total of 7 different mineral compounds were identified: 51.6% (N = 156) contained calcium oxalate, 41% (N = 124) calcium phosphate, 37.7% (N = 114) uric acid, 22.1% (N = 67) ammonium urate, 9.6% (N = 29) ammonium magnesium phosphate, 6.3% (N = 19) sodium urate and 1.3% (N = 4) contained cystine.

The aim of the present study was to compare the results obtained with flexible disposable ureteroscopes with those obtained using reusable ureteroscopes in the treatment of inferior calyx stones. Material and methods A case-control study was carried out using data registered prospectively in a database at our center. The clinical results obtained in two groups of patients were analyzed. In the first group of patients, a reusable flexible fiber-optic ureteroscope (Cobra®, Richard Wolf) was used, and in the second group, a disposable flexible ureteroscope was used (Uscope 3022®, Pusen Medical). The variables analyzed included: operative time, fluoroscopy time, need for postprocedure ureteral catheter, stone-free rate (fragments <1 millimeter) and complications. The results were evaluated using a Student's t test, a Mann-Whitney test and a Fisher's test. Results There were 31 cases with disposable ureteroscopes and 30 cases with a reusable ureteroscope. Both groups were comparable in their demographic and clinical variables. The characteristics regarding length, width and angle of the infundibulum (measured by retrograde ureteropyelography) were also comparable. There were no differences in the clinical findings with respect to the stone-free rate, need for a ureteral catheter, complications or hospital stay. Significant differences were found in the average surgery time (56.1 vs. 77 minutes; P = 0.01) and in the fluoroscopy time (66.1 vs. 83.4 seconds; P = 0.02), both favoring the use of single use ureteroscopes. Conclusions In this study, disposable flexible ureteroscopes have been validated as an option that is in the least equivalent to reusable ureteroscopes based on clinical results. The shorter surgical and fluoroscopy durations are possible advantages considering the high costs associated with time spent in the operating room and the need to reduce ionizing radiation.","PeriodicalId":86295,"journal":{"name":"Urologia polska","volume":"72 1","pages":"280 - 284"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49064021","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}
