The Impact of High Complexity Total Pelvic Exenteration on Surgeon Fatigue: The FaME Study

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Total pelvic exenteration surgery (TPE) is a radical procedure requiring significant surgeon mental and physical endurance. Literature surrounding surgeon fatigue remains minimal. This study investigated impact of performing high complexity (bony, vascular and neurological resection) TPE on surgeon fatigue. Methods Two surgeons ([#1]/[#2])

Association of preoperative ultrasonographic parameters of the contralateral kidney with long-term serum creatinine in cats treated for unilateral ureteral obstruction

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
IntroductionPrediction of renal recovery after surgical management of feline unilateral ureteral obstruction (UO) is crucial to guide therapeutic decisions, but predictors of this outcome are still lacking.

Vasoreactivity as a Measure of Kidney Viability During Ex Vivo Normothermic Machine Perfusion

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study aimed to investigate the influence of warm ischemic injury on renal vascular responsiveness to vasoactive drugs during normothermic machine perfusion (NMP). We found that the vascular responses to dopamine and norepinephrine could be used as objective indicators to assess kidney viability during NMP.

Optimizing Donor Kidneys During Normothermic Machine Perfusion With Sevoflurane: Design of a Research Model

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
A stable kidney normothermic machine perfusion model with sevoflurane delivery via a vaporizer was established, enabling mechanistic and therapeutic studies of ischemia–reperfusion injury. ABSTRACT Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) of donor kidneys provides an opportunity not only for organ preservation but also for therapeutic intervention to ...

Flexible and navigable suction access sheaths: balancing sheath and scope size for desired flows

open access: yesBJU International, EarlyView.
Objective To study the effects of ureteroscope diameter, ‘flexible and navigable suction’ access sheaths (FANS) diameter, and irrigation pressure on intrarenal pressure (IRP) and irrigation fluid flow rates in ex vivo porcine kidneys; these benchtop data were compared against mathematical modelling results.

Primary adenocarcinoma of ureter mimicking pyelonephritis

open access: yesUrology Annals, 2010
Tumors of the ureter are rare. We present a case of primary mucinous adenocarcinoma of the ureter diagnosed as chronic pyelonephritis preoperatively. This tumor is postulated to arise from metaplastic glandular mucosa in response to chronic irritation of

A Nomogram to Predict Cancer-Specific Survival of Transitional Cell Carcinoma of Ureter After Surgery

open access: yesMedicina
Background and Objectives: Due to the rare focus on ureteral cancer survival analyses, this study investigates post-surgery cancer-specific survival (CSS) rates, along with prognostic factors affecting these outcomes.
