Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy Versus Open Radical Cystectomy in Bladder Cancer Patients: A Multicentre Comparative Effectiveness Study.

Radical cystectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) and urinary diversion in patients with bladder cancer is known for its high risk of complications. Although open radical cystectomy (ORC) is regarded as the standard treatment, robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) is increasingly used in practice, despite the fact that high-quality evidence comparing the effectiveness of both […]

DPPG2-Based Thermosensitive Liposomes with Encapsulated Doxorubicin Combined with Hyperthermia Lead to Higher Doxorubicin Concentrations in the Bladder Compared to Conventional Application in Pigs: A Rationale for the Treatment of Muscle-Invasive Bladder

Current treatment options for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) are associated with substantial morbidity. Local release of doxorubicin (DOX) from phosphatidyldiglycerol-based thermosensitive liposomes (DPPG2-TSL-DOX) potentiated by hyperthermia (HT) in the bladder wall may result in bladder sparing without toxicity of systemic chemotherapy.

[Clinical path and life quality of women under 75 years with an urinary incontinence relevant to surgical treatment].

Urinary incontinence has a high prevalence and a significant impact on quality of life, especially for women. Surgery is possible after failure of lifestyle changes, physiotherapy. Analyzing the care pathway of women under 75 years of age who have undergone surgery for urinary incontinence in link with recommendation and suggest possible improvements.

Continence and Complication Rates of Artificial Urinary Sphincter Devices (AMS 800) for Parkinson and Stroke Patients with Incontinence after Prostate Surgery: Retrospective Analysis of a Prospective Database.

The artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) is the gold standard treatment for severe stress urinary incontinence (SUI). According to the literature, patients suffering from Parkinson’s disease (PD) or stroke (ST) show adverse continence outcomes after prostate surgery and, therefore, constitute a challenging cohort for continence surgery.
