For all patients the Stone Management According to Size-Hardness (SMASH) score was calculated: Hounsfield units × stone maximum size (cm)/100. Patients with score of <15 underwent RIRS (90 patients, Group A), whereas patients with score ≥15 underwent mini-PCNL (86 patients, Group B). In both groups the Cyber Ho laser was used.

The mean maximum stone diameter was 17.1 and 16.8 mm in Groups A and B, respectively (P = 0.13). The stone-free rate was comparable (87.8% vs 95.3%, P = 0.07). The overall complication rate was 14.4% and 18.6% in Groups A and B, respectively (P = 0.09). Gross haematuria was observed in five cases (5.5%) after RIRS and seven (8.1%) after mini-PCNL (P = 0.07).

Fanshawe, Thomas Hughes, Karen Briggs, Raveen Sandher, Yacoub Khalaf, Tet Yap, Julia Kopeika, Majid Shabbir","doi":"10.1111/bju.16553","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/bju.16553","url":null,"abstract":"ObjectiveTo determine the success rate of oncological microdissection testicular sperm extraction (onco‐microTESE) in patients with testicular cancer (TC) with azoospermia and severe oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT; &lt;1 million/mL sperm) and to explore any factors that may predict success.Patients and MethodsCase series of outcomes from all consecutive patients (42 testes in 38 patients) that presented or were referred to a single specialist tertiary referral centre for fertility management in the context of TC with severe OAT or azoospermia between August 2015 and August 2022. Biochemical, radiological, and histological parameters were collected for all patients. All patients underwent onco‐microTESE (simultaneous radical inguinal orchidectomy with <jats:italic>ex vivo</jats:italic> microTESE of the affected testis). Those with unsuccessful surgical sperm retrieval (SSR) from the affected testis underwent contemporaneous contralateral microTESE, if no contraindication was present. The primary outcome was successful SSR from the affected testicle sufficient for assisted reproductive techniques. Secondary outcomes included contralateral microTESE success, the time from referral to procedure, and the total successful fertility preservation rate.ResultsInitial onco‐microTESE was successful in 19 of 31 patients (61%) with azoospermia. Contralateral microTESE was successful in a further two of eight patients with azoospermia with failed onco‐microTESE. Overall, 22/31 patients with azoospermia (71%) had successful fertility preservation in this series. In addition, six of seven patients with severe OAT had further sperm harvested by onco‐microTESE to maximise their fertility preservation. All surgery was performed within median (interquartile range) of 7 (5–13) days from presentation.ConclusionsOnco‐microTESE represents an effective method of fertility preservation for sub‐fertile patients with TC without delaying oncological treatment. Knowledge of the fertility status at first presentation is essential to allow for such additional options for optimal fertility preservation in TC.","PeriodicalId":8985,"journal":{"name":"BJU International","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142643219","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"EndoSheath use in flexible cystoscopy: a prospective evaluation of >1000 cases","authors":"Lara Ratcliffe, Brian Birch","doi":"10.1111/bju.16578","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/bju.16578","url":null,"abstract":"ObjectivesTo investigate patient tolerability and safety (using urinary tract infection (UTI) as a proxy measure) following EndoSheath‐assisted flexible cystoscopy (eFC). EndoSheaths are single‐use, disposable sheaths used in FC. They reduce cystoscope turnaround times as complicated, time‐consuming and costly sterilisation is no longer necessary. This reduces patient waiting times as cystoscope idle time, the most common rate limiting step, is reduced.Patients and MethodsAll adult patients undergoing eFC over a 26‐month period at a single institution were evaluated prospectively. Post‐eFC, participants rated discomfort on a visual analogue scale (discomfort 1 = none, 2–4 = mild, 5–7 = moderate, 8–10 = severe). The diagnosis of UTI was broad and based on any one of patient self‐report, positive urine culture or antibiotic prescription within 30 days of eFC. Data were analysed using chi‐squared testing (<jats:italic>P</jats:italic> &lt; 0.05, two‐tailed).ResultsOf the 1091 eFCs analysed, 33.2% and 48.2% of were ranked as causing no or mild discomfort, respectively, with just 3.1% ranked severe. Discomfort was greater in younger participants but similar between sexes. Overall, post‐eFC UTI incidence was 13.3%, with rates higher in females (18.1%) than males (11.2%). Participants aged ≥65 years reported a higher UTI rate (15.4%) than those aged &lt;65 years (8.8%). No participants developed urosepsis.ConclusionThis large, prospective, unselected, real‐world study reports that eFC is well tolerated. UTI was higher in females than males, and in those aged ≥65 years, in line with other studies using the same broad based diagnostic criteria for UTI. The conclusion is that eFC is both well tolerated and safe.","PeriodicalId":8985,"journal":{"name":"BJU International","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142601210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
