Vesicourethral anastomosis facilitated by a new disposable instrument
The author presents a prototype of a disposable device that enables, in one single movement, the passing of all suture stitches in the urethral stump that will be anastomosed to the bladder or to a neobladder, with the advantage of a regular distribution

In the progression of docetaxel resistance, downregulation of FAM107A releases its transcriptional repression of TTK, leading to TTK upregulation. TTK enhances the interaction and phosphorylation of OPTN. This activates mitophagy in tumor cells, facilitates clearance of damaged mitochondria, reduces intracellular reactive oxygen species accumulation ...

Reducing the number of sutures for vesicourethral anastomosis in radical retropubic prostatectomy
OBJECTIVE: To prospectively evaluate the outcome of using a two-suture technique for the vesicourethral anastomosis (VUA) during radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP).

Three different urological units found that transurethral prostatectomy required a hospital stay at least one week shorter than open Millin or transvesical prostatectomy. By making transurethral resection more widely available there could be a substantial financial saving; but more surgeons would have to specialize in urology.

We recommend the current practice of tumor marker reporting to upgrade to two‐figure format to include a specific growth rate in parentheses. This can be of great clinical importance, especially in the subnormal range. ABSTRACT Introduction This review offers clinicians a novel view of tumor markers (TM).

Lessons learned from 12,000 robotic radical prostatectomies: Is the journey as important as the outcome? [PDF]
Robotic radical prostatectomy (RARP) is a standardized treatment for localized prostate cancer, which provides better functional outcomes and similar oncological outcomes compared to open approaches.

ABSTRACT Background Clinical T2‐weighted (T2W) MRI of prostate cancer (PCa) usually implements a 2D fast‐spin‐echo (FSE) sequence, but understanding the echo‐time‐dependent contrast behavior is not straightforward due to the complicated FSE signal evolution.
