Transplant renal artery stenosis is the most common vascular complication that turns out following kidney transplantation and can lead to graft dysfunction and even its loss. The present report, describes A patient with end-stage renal disease who underwent living related renal transplantation. He had oliguria and creatinine rise in the post-operative course but all doppler ultrasonography (DUS) during the 2 months post-operation for the renal graft showed a normal mean resistive index in the graft renal artery...

PURPOSE: Treatment intensification of external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) plays a crucial role in the treatment of high-risk prostate cancer. METHODS: We performed a critical narrative review of the relevant literature and present new developments in evidence-based treatment intensification strategies. RESULTS: For men with high-risk prostate cancer, there is strong evidence to support prolonging androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) to 18-36 months and escalating the dose to the prostate using a brachytherapy boost...

Hypertension, a disease whose prevalence increases with age, induces pathological conditions of ischemic vascular disorders such as cerebral infarction and myocardial infarction due to accelerated arteriosclerosis and circulatory insufficiency of small arteries and sometimes causes hemorrhagic conditions such as cerebral hemorrhage and ruptured aortic aneurysm. On the other hand, as it is said that aging starts with the blood vessels, impaired blood flow associated with vascular aging is the basis for the development of many pathological conditions, and ischemic changes in target organs associated with vascular disorders result in tissue dysfunction and degeneration, inducing organ hypofunction and dysfunction...

INTRODUCTION: Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) consists of low libido, sexual arousal problems, anorgasmia, and dyspareunia. Sexual function is an important aspect of life for many women and is closely correlated with overall well-being. FSD is often underrepresented in the academic space when compared with male sexual disorders, such as erectile dysfunction. As FSD spans many fields (eg, urology, gynecology, psychology), bibliometric analyses are an important resource to highlight landmark articles...

INTRODUCTION: Individuals with CKD are at an increased risk for developing metabolic acidosis. Metabolic acidosis has been shown to worsen kidney function and exacerbate systemic inflammation. Diets high in protein foods can exacerbate metabolic acidosis as protein foods tend to be more acidic, while fruits and vegetables are more alkalotic. The main objective of this systematic review was to determine if higher consumption of fruits and vegetables in adults with CKD stages 1-5 reduces the rate of decline of eGFR...

PURPOSE: To assess surgical success and patient-reported outcomes of perineal urethrostomy via midline approach. MATERIALS & METHODS: Charts of patients undergoing primary perineal urethrostomy between May 2008 and June 2022 were reviewed. Background characteristics were assessed; success was defined as freedom from re-intervention. Patient-reported outcome measures were assessed using a cross-sectional phone survey. Several validated questionnaires were used to assess lower urinary tract symptoms, quality of life, and erectile dysfunction...

PURPOSE: This study aims to evaluate the long-term outcome of the serous-lined extramural continent catheterizable outlet procedure (SLECCOP) associated with ileal bladder augmentation in children. METHODS: This was a monocentric and retrospective study (2002-2021) that included children (<18 years) undergoing the SLECCOP associated with W-shaped ileocystoplasty with a catheterizable channel (Abol-Enein and Ghoneim procedure). Patients who received other types of bladder augmentation or W-shaped ileocystoplasty without a catheterizable channel were excluded...

Prostatic acinar adenocarcinoma accounts for approximately 95% of prostate cancer (CaP) cases. The remaining 5% of histologic subtypes of CaP are known to be more aggressive and have recently garnered substantial attention. These histologic subtypes - namely, prostatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA), intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P), and cribriform carcinoma of the prostate (CC-P) - typically exhibit distinct growth characteristics, genomic features, and unique oncologic outcomes. For example, PTEN mutations, which cause uncontrolled cell growth, are frequently present in IDC-P and CC-P...

OBJECTIVE: Internet search engines and social media websites are prominent and growing sources of dietary information for people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and their healthcare providers. However, nutrition therapy for CKD is undergoing a paradigm shift, which may lead to inconsistent advice for managing hyperphosphatemia. The aim of this study was to summarize and evaluate online resources for phosphorus-specific nutrition therapy. DESIGN AND METHODS: Patient-facing resources were collected from Google, Yahoo, and Facebook in June-July 2021...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common condition in men, and many patients refractory to conservative treatment may undergo penile prostheses (PPs) placement. The primary concern following PP implantation is device infection. Although antibiotic and hydrophilic coatings have reduced the incidence of inflatable PP (IPP) infections, there remains room for improvement. Optimization of PP outcomes requires a practical in vivo model to better understand mechanisms of infection and to test new infection control strategies...

This article provides a comprehensive discussion of 3-piece inflatable penile implant surgery when performed through an infrapubic approach in patients presenting with challenging anatomy or corporal fibrosis. The infrapubic approach is one of the primary approaches for inflatable device placement with excellent long-term functional outcomes. While the literature is rich in descriptions of infrapubic placement in the primary, uncomplicated setting, its role in the management of complex patients presenting to centers of excellence is less elucidated...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Basic semen analysis is the first step in the evaluation of male infertility. It includes an assessment of sperm morphology which is believed to reflect on overall spermatogenesis and sperm function. Teratozoospermia, defined as abnormal sperm morphology, is frequently present in association with severe oligoasthenozoospermia, but isolated teratozoospermia (in the presence of normal counts and motility) is a poorly understood clinical entity with conflicting implications in terms of fertility potential and treatment strategies...
