Although an increasing number of prostate cancer (PCa) patients received holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) previously for benign prostatic obstruction (BPO), there is still no evidence regarding the outcomes of radical prostatectomy (RP) in this setting.
Although prostate cancer is a leading cause of cancer death, its aetiology is not well understood. We aimed to identify novel biochemical factors for prostate cancer incidence and mortality in UK Biobank.
Identifying which patients are likely to benefit from cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) is important. We tested the association between preoperative serum De Ritis ratio (DRR, Aspartate Aminotransferase/Alanine Aminotransferase) and overall survival (OS) as well as cancer-specific survival (CSS) in mRCC patients treated with CN.
Platinum-based chemotherapy is not standard of care for unselected or genetically selected metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients. A retrospective assessment of 71 patients was performed on platinum use in the Netherlands.
To best employ radium-223 dichloride (Ra-223) for patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and bone metastasis, we investigated the bone-predominant status in patients treated with Ra-223.
Imaging modalities using tumor-directed monoclonal antibodies may be of value to improve the pre- and intraoperative detection and resection of lymph node (LN) metastatic disease in penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC).
Bladder cancer (BC) is one of the most common malignancies of the urinary tract. The role of transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7) in BC remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the function and signal transduction pathway of TRPM7 in BC.
Arsenic in drinking water is one of the major etiological factors in urinary bladder carcinoma (BlCa). Here, high-resolution CGH-SNP microarray analyses in arsenic accumulated BlCa tissues showed significant (p < 0.
5-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-mediated photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) had recently been approved in Japan for the management of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. As such, the current study aimed to investigate the real-world diagnostic accuracy and safety of ALA-PDD-assisted transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT).
Stage-specific guideline recommendations are lacking for chemotherapy in micropapillary carcinoma of the urinary bladder (MCUB). To test the efficacy of stage-specific chemotherapy for MCUB. Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) registry (2001-2016), we identified patients with MCUB and pure urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder (UCUB) of all stages.
