Assessment of anatomical outcomes in the upper urinary tract following flexible ureteroscopy with flexible and navigable suction ureteral access sheath: 1‐year results from a multicentre study

BJUI Compass, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Flexible and navigable suction access sheath (FANS) with flexible ureterorenoscopy (FURS) has demonstrated favourable 30‐day and 3‐month outcomes for renal stones in normal anatomy. We aimed to investigate the long‐term 1‐year safety and efficacy of FANS for renal and ureteric stones in normal or anomalous anatomy.

Challenges in Diagnosing and Treating Percutaneous Nephrostomy‐Related Urinary Tract Infection in Cancer Patients: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective We aimed to evaluate medical decisions regarding urinary tract infection (UTI), describe associated microorganisms, and assess potential risk factors for percutaneous nephrostomy‐related UTI (UTI‐PN). Methods Oncological patients who underwent percutaneous nephrostomy (PN) were included. We assessed percutaneous nephrostomy procedure‐

Differentiation of Fat‐Poor Renal Angiomyolipoma From Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma: Diagnostic Performance of a Novel Type of Color Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our study confirms CPI can distinguish AML.wovf from ccRCC, potentially helping patients with AML.wovf avoid unnecessary surgery. These findings expand CPI's clinical utility, providing a promising tool for diagnosing renal tumors. ABSTRACT Background The similar imaging characteristics of renal angiomyolipoma without visible fat (RAML.wvf) and clear ...
