Transition Zone Prostate Cancer: Quantitative Synthetic MR Imaging and Diffusion‐Weighted Imaging in Tumour Detection

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Differentiating transition zone (TZ) prostate cancer (PCa) from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) on multiparametric MRI is challenging. The comparative performance of synthetic MRI (Sy‐MRI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) for this task is unclear.

Measuring patient disability in the peri‐operative period using the WHODAS 2.0 questionnaire: a systematic review

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction The World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0) is recommended by peri‐operative core outcome sets as a measure of disability. Despite its growing use, the effect of different surgical procedures on disability measured by WHODAS 2.0 remains poorly understood and heterogeneous reporting across studies ...

Partial ablation versus radical prostatectomy in intermediate-risk prostate cancer: the PART feasibility RCT

Health Technology Assessment, 2018
Background: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer in men in the UK. Patients with intermediate-risk, clinically localised disease are offered radical treatments such as surgery or radiotherapy, which can result in severe side effects.

Evaluation of pelvic lymph nodes in patients with prostate cancer: the role of Diffusion Weighted MR Imaging (DW-MRI) [PDF]

, 2012
PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of MRI Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (DWI) to detect pelvic lymph node metastases in patients with prostate cancer (PC) candidate to radical prostatectomy and extended pelvic lymph node dissection.

Umbilical Cord Blood–Derived Extracellular Vesicles Enhance Neurovascular Regeneration and Improve Erectile Function in a Mouse Model of Bilateral Cavernous Nerve Injury

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Erectile dysfunction (ED) secondary to cavernous nerve injury (CNI), such as that occurring after radical prostatectomy, remains a significant clinical challenge, particularly among patients who do not respond to phosphodiesterase Type 5 inhibitors (PDE5i).

Association between PSA values and surveillance quality after prostate cancer surgery

Cancer Medicine, 2019
Background Although prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) testing is used for prostate cancer detection and posttreatment surveillance, thresholds in these settings differ.

Myoblasts inhibit prostate cancer growth by paracrine secretion of TNF alpha [PDF]

, 2013
PURPOSE: Myoblasts are capable of forming muscle fibers after transplantation and are therefore envisioned as a treatment for urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy.

Preoperative MRI Parameters Predict Urinary Continence after Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy in Prostatic Cancer Patients

Diagnostics, 2019
We aimed to investigate whether preoperative MRI findings could predict the bladder neck location on postoperative cystography and recovery of urinary incontinence after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).

Does Robot-Assisted Prostatectomy Rise Above Pure Laparoscopy?

, 2015
This thesis examines the roll of robotic-assisted prostatectomy as it compares to pure-laparoscopy. The functional and perioperative outcomes associated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy signify a slight advantage over the pure laparoscopic ...
