Feasibility of Post‐Operative Telehealth for Pediatric Surgical Patients in Malawi—A Mixed Methods Analysis

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Pediatric operative volumes in Malawi have increased over the past decade due to an increase in the pediatric surgical workforce and improved infrastructure. Despite growth in surgical capacity, limited data exist regarding post‐operative outcomes for common surgical diseases in low‐resource settings. Post‐operative follow‐up via phone call is feasible

Langerhans cells in hypospadias: an analysis of Langerin (CD207) and HLA-DR on epidermal sheets and full thickness skin sections

open access: yesBMC Urology, 2019
Background Hypospadias are among the most common genital malformations. Langerhans Cells (LCs) play a pivotal role in HIV and HPV infection. The migration of LC precursors to skin coincides with the embryonic period of hypospadias development and genetic

Semen quality in patients with testicular cancer is associated with age and with greatly elevated levels of beta human chorionic gonadotropin

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Poor semen quality is a well‐known feature in patients with testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) at the time of diagnosis but the underlying biological reasons are incompletely understood. Objectives This study aimed to identify GCT‐specific clinical factors that are involved with poor semen quality in GCT patients.

Short‐Term Surgical Outcomes: Modified Dorsal Inlay Graft Versus Tubularized Incised Plate Urethroplasty in Pediatric Hypospadias With Narrow Urethral Plates

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Reconstructing the urethra presents in hypospadias surgery is difficult. Occasionally, the urethral plate (UP) may be quite narrow, necessitating augmentation or replacement to achieve additional tubularization. Objective The objective of this research was to assess the application of modified dorsal inlay graft (mDIG) and ...
