In Tunisia, bladder cancer represents the first urological cancer before
even prostate cancer. However, its diagnosis is often delayed to the stage of
invasive tumor. Systemic chemotherapy represents an option for inoperable
and/or metastatic forms. Our study’s aims were to report our center’s therapeutic
results for locally advanced and metastatic forms of bladder cancer and to
analyze its prognosis factors. In our 40 patients wi ...

The
risk of urinary tract stone disease is influenced by
lifestyle, genetics and diet. Coffee, tea and drinking water source are one
dietary factor that influences the
urinary volume and urinary solute concentration. This study investigates the
influence of coffee, tea and type of drinking water source to the risk of
calcium kidney stone disease in Universitas Padjadjaran/Hasan Sadikin Hospital,
Bandung West Java Indonesia. A hosp ...

Laparoscopy has become the
standard of care in many urological procedures. Various simulations are used to
train laparoscopic skills. This study evaluates the effectiveness of our low
cost laparoscopic training box simulation to improve urologic laparoscopic
skills. The study was conducted during Urology Laparoscopic Surgery Training
Course in the department of Urology Universitas Padjadjaran/Hasan Sadikin

We present a male patient,
52 years old, with acute renal failure due to giant bladder stone. In first presentation
with acute renal failure, tomography has shown a bladder stone with 10 cm in its largest diameter
associated with bilateral ureterohydronephrosis. It was initially treated by bladder
catheterization and indicated emergency dialysis and subsequently submitted to surgical
treatment through open cistolitotomy. During the procedure it was possible to observe
the giant calculus, adhered...

It is well known that the portrayal of the male organ in classical art
was subject to strict conventions and was not realistic. To what extent did
this tradition carry over to the Italian Renaissance? Jewish Old and New
Testament figures were not shown as circumcised, but was this a concession to
classical convention or a portrayal of the actual, uncircumcised models? The
photographs of Wilhelm von Gloeden, taken between 1890 and ...

In spite of newer evolutions in the medical management of benign
prostatic enlargement, surgery still continues to be an important modality. A
prospective randomized controlled trial study conducted on 50 patients of
benign prostate enlargement who were admitted inward from June 2007 to March 2010.
Patients with diabetes mellitus or pre-existing epididymoorchitis were excluded
from the study. All these patients were planned for prostatectomy (modified
Freyer’s/TURP) with NSV (study group) or wit...

Background: The objective
of this study is to analyze the incidence of congenital urogenital malformations
in human fetuses with neural tube defects (NTDs). Methods: We studied 320 human
fetuses (214 males and 106 female) ranged in age from 12 to 35 weeks
post-conception (WPC). The fetuses were carefully dissected with the aid of a
stereoscopic lens with 16/25× magnification. The
abdomen and pelvis were opened to identify and expose the urogenital organs. We
studied the incidence of renal, urete...

Clinical manifestation or incidental finding of
congenital kidney anomalies are more often discovered during pregnancy. Even if
the acute presentation (in the antenatal period, as in this case) precludes a
full diagnostic workup, assiduous follow-up and investigations in the postnatal
period will resolve the initial uncertainty. This is not a new phenomenon based
on literature and urologic differential diagnoses such as an ectopic urinary
system which should always be entertained and excluded pr...
