METHODS
A one year prospective, hospital-based study with three months' follow up after treatment.
METHODS
The urology unit of the Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre (KCMC), a tertiary 500 bed
We report on three patients with postrenal acute kidney injury (AKI) showing a remarkably low level of cystatin C (CysC) compared with that of creatinine (Cr). The levels of Cr and CysC (Cr/CysC) were respectively as follows: 12.16 mg/dl/1.26 mg/l, 17.92 mg/dl/0.95 mg/l and 18.94 mg/dl/0.55 mg/l.
BACKGROUND
Iatrogenic urethral stricture after renal transplantation is mostly seen after urethral manipulations. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for the safe continuity of the graft functions. In this study, the effect of urethral strictures on graft functions during the
A previously normotensive 24-year-old black man developed malignant hypertension and azotemia. The patient was found to have bladder outlet obstruction due to urethral stricture. Transurethral dilation resulted in brisk improvement in renal function and rapid lowering of blood pressure in
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the incidence and causes of urethral stricture after kidney transplantation, as well as analyze its diagnosis, treatment and prevention.
METHODS
Clinical data of patients who developed urethral stricture after living-donor kidney transplantation in our center between January
Non-traumatic, spontaneous urinary bladder rupture is a rare complication of urethral stricture. Furthermore, its symptoms are often nonspecific, and misdiagnosis is common. The authors experienced a case of urethral stricture with spontaneous bladder rupture and bilateral hydronephrosis, mimicking
This study analyzed the long-term outcomes of localized prostate cancer in renal transplant recipients after radiotherapy treatment - mainly brachytherapy. We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of renal transplant recipients between 2003 and 2016 at a single tertiary center, and identified four
Clinical studies were made of 60 patients who had undergone ureterosigmoidostomy at our department. The 45 men and 15 women ranged from 35 to 73 years old, with a mean of 59.2 years. Ureterosigmoidanastomosis was performed using the modified Coffey II technique in this series. Bladder tumor was the
Millions of people worldwide take tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and/or hepatitis B infection. Although generally safe and well tolerated, clinicians need to be aware that TDF can cause proximal renal tubular dysfunction and loss of bone
OBJECTIVE
To identify predictors of thirty-day perioperative complications after urethroplasty and create a model to predict patients at increased risk.
METHODS
We selected all patients recorded in the National Surgery Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) from 2005 to 2015 who underwent
Neobladder using a detubularized intestinal segment was constructed in 74 cystectomized patients between October 1986 and July 1994. There were 65 males (87.8%) and 9 females (12.2%) with an average age of 63 years (range 36 to 77 years). The mean follow-up period was 35 months (range 7 to 85).
Objectives: To evaluate the impact of cardiovascular, metabolic and smoking related risk factors on recurrence in patients with buccal mucosal graft urethroplasty (BMGU) for anterior urethral strictures.
OBJECTIVE
To assess the safety and efficacy of rotoresection as a method for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
METHODS
Thirty patients were prospectively enrolled between September 2000 and May 2001 (mean age 61 years, sd 6, range 52-78). All patients had a symptom score (AUA) of > 12, a
Between April 1985 and April 1993, 100 consecutive men underwent lower urinary tract reconstruction after cystectomy. An ileal low pressure reservoir using the Goodwin cup-patch principle was combined with an afferent ileal tubular segment. The early complication rate was 11%, including 2
OBJECTIVE
To report the clinical results of 5 fetuses after a vesicoamniotic shunting procedure (VASP).
METHODS
Between 1995 and 1998, 5 patients (two with prune belly syndrome, one with a cloacal anomaly, one with urethral stenosis, and one with a sacrococcygeal teratoma) underwent VASP using a
