OBJECTIVE: To examine the perioperative impact of factor V Leiden mutation on thromboembolic events' risk in radical prostatectomy (RP) patients. With an incidence of about 5%, factor V Leiden mutation is the most common hereditary hypercoagulability among Caucasians and rarer in Asia. The increased risk of thromboembolic events is three- to seven-fold in heterozygous and to 80-fold in homozygous patients. METHODS: Within our prospectively collected database, we analysed 33 006 prostate cancer patients treated with RP between December 2001 and December 2020...

OBJECTIVE: Currently, electrocautery devices have frequently been used in penile surgical procedures. We hypothesized that electrocautery using during penile surgical procedures may harm the taste rosea and the dorsal nerve of the penis or clitoris. METHODS: Eighteen young age male New Zealand rabbits were studied: five in the control (Group I, n =5), five in the penile surgery without using electrocautery (sham group, Group II, n =5), eight in the monopolar cautery (study group, Group III, n =8) groups under general anesthesia...

OBJECTIVE: Ureteral stents are customarily inserted to facilitate urinary drainage, but they come with their own glitches of being forgotten and/or encrusted leading to serious consequences. The present study aimed to report the complications in patients with forgotten and encrusted stents according to the Clavien-Dindo system specific to urological procedures and identify the factors leading to high-grade (Clavien-Dindo Grade 4A or above) complications. METHODS: The hospital records of patients with forgotten encrusted double-J stents over a period of 8 years were reviewed...

OBJECTIVE: Genome-wide association studies have demonstrated that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are important risk factors for the development of prostate cancer (PCa). Preliminary studies have suggested that the incidence of PCa in Saudi males is low but is probably familial or genetically related. METHODS: To identify any possible association of SNP with PCa development in Saudi patients, we investigated a group of SNPs in Saudi PCa patients ( n =85) and compared the outcomes to healthy normal controls ( n =115) and nodular hyperplasia patients ( n =120)...

OBJECTIVE: Transurethral resection of bladder tumor is one of the most common everyday urological procedures. This kind of surgery demands a set of skills that need training and experience. In this review, we aimed to investigate the current literature to find out if simulators, phantoms, and other training models could be used as a tool for teaching urologists. METHODS: A systematic review was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses statement and the recommendations of the European Association of Urology guidelines for conducting systematic reviews...

OBJECTIVE: Placement of human placenta derived grafts during robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) hastens the return of continence and potency. The long-term impact on the oncologic outcomes remains to be investigated. Our objective was to determine the oncologic outcomes of patients with dehydrated human amnion chorion membrane (dHACM) at RARP compared to a matched cohort. METHODS: In a referral centre, from August 2013 to October 2019, 599 patients used dHACM in bilateral nerve-sparing RARP...

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify predictive factors for percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) bleeding risks. With better risk stratification, bleeding in high-risk patient can be anticipated and facilitates early identification. METHODS: A prospective observational study of PCNL performed at our institution was done. All adults with radio-opaque renal stones planned for PCNL were included except those with coagulopathy, planned for additional procedures. Factors including gender, co-morbidities, body mass index, stone burden, puncture site, tract dilatation size, operative position, surgeon's seniority, and operative duration were studied using stepwise multivariate regression analysis to identify the predictive factors associated with higher estimated hemoglobin (Hb) deficiency...

OBJECTIVE: To scrutinize the definitions of minimal invasive surgical therapy (MIST) and to investigate urologists' knowledge, attitudes, and practices for benign prostatic obstruction surgeries. METHODS: A 36-item survey was developed with a Delphi method. Questions on definitions of MIST and attitudes and practices of benign prostatic obstruction surgeries were included. Urologists were invited globally to complete the online survey. Consensus was achieved when more than or equal to 70% responses were "agree or strongly agree" and less than or equal to 15% responses were "disagree or strongly disagree" (consensus agree), or when more than or equal to 70% responses were "disagree or strongly disagree" and less than or equal to 15% responses were "agree or strongly agree" (consensus disagree)...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of ureteral access sheath (UAS) use and calibration change on stone-free rate and complications of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS). METHODS: Data from 568 patients undergoing RIRS for kidney or upper ureteral stones were retrospectively included. Firstly, patients were compared after 1:1 propensity score matching, according to UAS usage during RIRS (UAS used [+ ] 87 and UAS non-used [- ] 87 patients). Then all UAS+  patients ( n =481) were subdivided according to UAS calibration: 9...

OBJECTIVE: Prostate cancer (PCa) patients might experience lower urinary tract symptoms as those diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Some of them might be treated for their lower urinary tract symptoms instead of PCa. We aimed to test the effect of PCa versus BPH on surgical outcomes after transurethral prostate surgery, namely complication and mortality rates. METHODS: Within the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database (2011-2016), we identified patients who underwent transurethral resection of the prostate, photoselective vaporization, or laser enucleation...
