Resume Introduction La photo-vaporisation selective de la prostate (PVP) par le laser Greenlight XPS®-180 W (AMS, San Jose, USA) est une option dans le traitement chirurgical de l’hyperplasie benigne de la prostate (HBP). L’objectif de notre travail etait d’etudier les effets de la densite d’energie delivree pour la vaporisation prostatique sur les resultats postoperatoires et le taux de PSA total serique. Patients et methodes Une etude retrospective monocentrique a ete conduite dans le service d’urologie des hopitaux civils de Colmar, chez des patients avec une HBP symptomatique, traites par PVP, entre janvier 2016 et janvier 2019. Nous avons reparti les patients en deux groupes selon la densite d’energie delivree rapportee au volume prostatique mesure en preoperatoire : faible densite ( 4 kJ/mL). L’evaluation a porte sur la survenue de complications postoperatoires, l’evolution du taux de PSA total serique et les resultats fonctionnels (score IPSS, score de qualite de vie liee aux symptomes urinaires, debit urinaire maximal et residu post-mictionnel) avec un recul minimal de 6 mois. Resultats Au total, 215 patients ont ete inclus avec un suivi median de 25 mois. Une densite energetique elevee etait associee a un volume glandulaire moins important. La diminution du PSA Total postoperatoire etait superieure dans le groupe de haute energie (41 % vs 28 %, p = 0,03). Il n’existait pas de difference significative selon la densite d’energie delivree concernant les complications per- et postoperatoires et les resultats fonctionnels. Le taux de reintervention etait comparable dans les deux groupes. Conclusion Les complications postoperatoires et les resultats fonctionnels de la PVP avec le laser Greenlight XPS-180 W sont comparables en fonction de la densite d’energie delivree. La diminution plus importante du PSA total postoperatoire pour une densite d’energie elevee pourrait neanmoins evoquer une destruction tissulaire de meilleure qualite. Niveau de preuve 3.

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Its histological diagnosis is based on prostate biopsy. The transrectal procedure is one of the most common procedures performed by urologists. Although it is considered safe, post-biopsy infectious complications are frequently observed in practice. The aim of this study is to investigate the value of urine culture before the transrectal biopsy. Secondly, we assessed potential risk factors for infectious complications following TR-PB.We performed a retrospective analysis of all patients who underwent urine culture tests before transrectal prostate biopsy between January 2019 and July 2020. The inclusion criteria for the study were all indications for prostate biopsy (PSA4ng/mL or abnormal digital rectal examination). Baseline characteristics and the incidence of post-biopsy urinary tract infection were compared between patients showing positive pre-biopsy culture results and those showing negative findings. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine risk factors for infectious complications following TR-PB.Out of 163 patients included in our study, 19 patients (11.65%) had positive urine culture results before the biopsy. Age (P=0.068); history of hospitalization (P0.999), history previous of quinolone use (P=0.75), history of UTI (P=0.64); median PSA level at diagnosis (P=0.267); prostate volume (P=0.78); post-void residual volume (P=0.374); percentage of patients testing positive for cancer on biopsy (P=0.81); and percentages of patients with a history of biopsy (P=0.889), diabetes mellitus (P=0.524), hypertension (P=0.714) and immunosuppressive medication use (P0.999) were similar between the two groups. One patient in the positive urine culture group had post-biopsy prostatitis. However, 3.24% (five patients) of the negative urine culture group had the disease (P=0.789) (four patients with prostatitis and one with epididymitis). Among them, four patients were diagnosed by urine culture at the time of post-biopsy urinary tract infection. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that history of hospitalization and history of previous quinolone use were risk factors for infection after transrectal prostate biopsy.Our study suggests that systematically performing urine cultures before transrectal prostate biopsy does not reduce the rate of infectious complications after biopsy. Positive pre-biopsy cultures were not associated with the development of post-biopsy infectious complications.

The study aimed to determine the effect of water stress on the blood metabolites of Arbia goats in Algeria. Four groups of ten billy goats each were randomly assigned to different watering regimes: group 1 (control) had free access to spring water (three liters), groups 2 and 3 received the same water enriched with two and five grams of sodium chloride per liter, respectively, and group 4 only had access to 25% of the amount of water given to the control group. At the end of the experimental period, blood samples were taken to measure total protein, creatinine, albumin, urea, total cholesterol and glucose. The various treatments increased plasma concentrations of albumin, creatinine, total protein and total cholesterol, as well as urea in water-restricted animals. However, they did not affect blood sugar levels. These results showed that short-term (12-day) exposure of Arbia billy goats to salinization of drinking water or to water restriction affected the majority of their blood metabolites with the exception of glucose.

Greenlight XPS-180W® (AMS, San José, USA) photoselective vaporisation of the prostate (PVP) is considered as an alternative to transurethral resection of the prostate. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of energy density applied on adenoma during PVP treatment for benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) on postoperative outcomes.A single-centre retrospective study has been conducted in the department of Urology of Colmar Hospital, in patients with symptomatic BPH, treated by PVP, between January 2016 and January 2019. Patients were stratified into two groups according to energy delivered and prostate volume as determined preoperatively: Low density (4kJ/mL) and high density (4kJ/mL). Perioperative complications, PSA evolution and functional outcomes (International Prostate Symptom Score, quality of life, maximum urinary flow rate, post-void residual urine volume) were compared with a minimal delay of 6 months. The retreatment rate was similar in the two groups.A total of 215 patients were included with median follow-up of 25 months. High energy density was associated with less glandular volume. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups concerning the perioperative complications and the functional outcomes. The postoperative reduction of the PSA level was more significant in the high-energy group (41% vs. 28%, P=0.03).The perioperative complications and functional outcomes of PVP with Greenlight XPS-180W® laser are equivalent depending on the energy density delivered. The greater decrease in postoperative PSA for high-energy density could nevertheless suggest better quality tissue destruction.3.

Although the progress in diagnosis methods revealed a high incidence of infra-clinical varicocele, the clinical signification of this pathology is controversial. We compared left unilateral varicocelectomy to bilateral surgery in patients with left clinical varicocele associated to an infra-clinical right one.It is a retrospective study conducted between January 2007 and December 2015 concerning men followed for a varicocele related infertility (one-year or more primary infertility) with two altered sperm analysis (oligospermia and/or asthenospermia) and had a left clinical varicocele associated to right infra-clinical one detected at Doppler Ultrasound. Surgical techniques used were open surgery (sub-inguinal way), antegrade sclerotherapy and coelioscopy. All patients were reviewed with a 6 month post operatively spermogram and minimum follow up of 1 year.Our study included 95 men. Thirty-five patients have had a unilateral left surgery (Group I) and 60 patients have had a bilateral surgical treatment (Group II). The pre-operative spermatic parameters (concentration and progressive mobility) were comparable for the 2 groups. After the surgical treatment, an improvement of these parameters was noted in all the patients without significant difference between the two groups regarding sperm concentration (24.07±9.36×10Treatment of a right s infra-clinical varicocele, when combined with a left clinical varicocele, gave better results in terms of sperm parameters and spontaneous pregnancy than unilateral varicocelectomy but without statistically significant results.3.

La presente etude a pour objectif l’evaluation de la qualite bacteriologique de l’eau de neuf puits dans la region d’elevages du betail semi-aride d’Oum El Bouaghi, son interpretation et les effets de ces differentes eaux sur la production. Notre etude a ete menee sur des echantillons d’eau provenant de differentes exploitations pratiquant l’elevage mixte bovin et ovin reparties entre les zones d’Ain Beida et de Dhalaa. Les stations retenues ont ete choisies en raison de l’importance de l’activite d’elevage des ruminants et de l’utilisation exclusive des eaux souterraines des puits pour l’abreuvement des ruminants. L’ensemble des echantillons d’eau provient d’une campagne de prelevements effectuee sur l’ensemble des stations (puits) pendant la periode estivale de juin a septembre 2013; les echantillons ont ete soumis a des analyses bacteriologiques des differents parametres relatifs au controle de la qualite de l’eau dans les elevages des ruminants, a savoir les coliformes totaux, les coliformes thermotolerants, Escherichia coli, les streptocoques fecaux et les Clostridium sulfito-reducteurs (ASR). Les resultats obtenus ont montre une forte contamination bacterienne de l’ensemble des points etudies, avec des variations spatiales significatives, ce qui les rend en l’occurrence impropres a la consommation animale, induisant un veritable risque sur la production et la sante des ruminants.

The aim of the study is to investigate the factors predictive of surgical outcomes of PCNL and to compare the predictability and accuracy of the Guy's stone score, STONE nephrolithometry, CROES nomogram and S-ReSC score.We reviewed retrospectively the surgical outcomes recorded consecutively and imaging data of preoperative computed tomography scans of patients who underwent PCNL from 2013 to 2016. Patients with asymptomatic residual fragments4mm were considered stone-free. Preoperative abdominopelvic computerized tomography images of the patients were reviewed and scored according The Guy's stone score, STONE nephrolithometry, CROES nomogram, S-ReSC score by one urologist.A total of 157 PCNLs were reviewed. The overall stone-free rate was 59% (92/157) with a complication rate of 22% (35/157). Stone Burden542mmAlthough the four scoring systems were significantly associated with SFR, the STONE score was a significant predictive factor for SFR and complications after PCNL.3.

Objectifs La sarcopenie (ou diminution de la masse musculaire lombaire) a ete associee dans de nombreuses tumeurs solides a un pronostic sombre. L’objectif de notre etude etait de l’impact de l’indice d’aire du muscle psoas sur le devenir oncologique des patients traites par une nephro-ureterectomie totale (NUT) pour une tumeur des voies excretrices superieures (TVES). Methodes Nous avons mene une etude retrospective entre 2012 et 2017 colligeant les patients ayant eu une NUT pour une TVES. Le calcul de la surface du muscle psoas a ete effectue sur les coupes axiales passant par (L3) du scanner abdominal preoperatoire. Le resultat obtenu (en cm2) a ete rapporte au carre de la taille du patient (m2) afin d’obtenir la valeur de l’indice d’aire du psoas (cm2/m2). La survie sans recurrence et la survie specifique ont ete calculees. La signification pronostique de l’indice d’aire du muscle psoas a ete evaluee. Le seuil de signification a ete fixe a p Resultats Soixante-douze patients ont ete inclus. L’âge moyen des patients etait de 68 ans [42–87 ans]. Le sex-ratio etait de 2 :1. L’indice moyen d’aire du muscle psoas etait de 2,37 cm2/m2. Le recul moyen des patients etait de 53 mois [22–84 mois]. Les patients ayant un indice d’aire du muscle psoas bas avaient des tumeurs plus grandes (p = 0,026), un stade T plus eleve (p = 0,03), un grade plus haut (p = 0,016) et plus d’invasion lympho-vasculaire (p = 0,002). Le taux de survie sans recurrence et de la survie specifique a 5 ans etaient significativement plus bas chez les patients avec un indice d’aire de psoas inferieur a 2,37 cm2/m2. L’analyse multivariee a identifie l’indice d’aire de psoas comme un facteur independant de survie sans recidive (p = 0,001) et de survie specifique (p = 0,005). Conclusion Un indice d’aire du muscle psoas plus bas a ete associe a une tumeur des voies excretrices superieures plus agressive. En outre cet indice etait un facteur pronostique significatif a la fois pour la survie sans recidive et la survie specifique.

Introduction La cystite a eosinophiles est une pathologie inflammatoire de la paroi vesicale. Elle est rare, il n’existe pas des recommandations etablies concernant sa prise en charge. L’objectif de ce travail etait d’etudier les particularites epidemiologiques, etiopathogeniques, cliniques, endoscopiques et therapeutiques des cystites a eosinophiles. Patients et methodes Il s’agit d’une etude retrospective ayant concernee dix observations de cystite a eosinophiles diagnostiquees et prises en charge dans notre service entre janvier 2006 et decembre 2017. Nous avons recueilli et etudie pour chaque cas les donnees epidemiologiques, etiopathogeniques, la presentation clinique, l’aspect endoscopique et les modalites therapeutiques. Resultats L’âge moyen des patients etait de 48 ans. Le sex-ratio etait 3/1. Un terrain atopique etait note dans 3 cas (30 %). Le mode de presentation le plus frequent etait des signes urinaires irritatifs dans 9 cas (90 %), une hematurie macroscopique dans 8 cas (80 %) et des algies pelviennes dans 6 cas (60 %). Les urines etaient steriles dans 100 % des cas. Une hyper-eosinophilie sanguine etait presente dans 4 cas (40 %). La cystoscopie avait montre des petechies dans 5 cas (50 %), un aspect pseudo-tumoral dans 4 cas (40 %) et etait normal dans un cas (10 %). Apres resection endoscopique a visee biopsique, l’histologie avait montre infiltration des couches de la paroi vesicale par des elements inflammatoires au sein desquels predominent les cellules eosinophiles. Pour les formes pseudo-tumorales une resection endoscopique a ete pratiquee. Quatre patients ont ete traites par les anti-inflammatoires non steroidien, avec amelioration des symptomes. Six malades ont ete surveilles. Apres un recul moyen de 50 mois, aucune recidive n’a ete rapportee. Conclusion La cystite a eosinophiles est une pathologie rare. Le terrain atopique peut expliquer sa survenue. La presentation clinique est non specifique. Le diagnostic differentiel se fait avec le carcinome in situ (CIS), et les tumeurs vesicales dans les formes pseudo-tumorales. La prise en charge repose sur des moyens medicaux non invasifs dans les formes peu symptomatiques.

Objectifs L’injection intra-cytoplasmique de spermatozoides (ICSI) et l’extraction de spermatozoides testiculaires (TESE) representent les avancees les plus importantes dans le traitement de l’infertilite masculine. Cependant, le potentiel de transmission d’anomalies chromosomiques et genetiques a la progeniture suscite de vives. Les principales explorations genetiques indiquees en routine chez l’homme azoospermique et oligospermique sont l’analyse du caryotype et des loci AZF du chromosome Y. Methodes Cette etude retrospective portait sur une population de 350 couples inclus dans un programme d’ICSI dont 56 % des cas etaient candidats en raison d’une infertilite masculine severe. Le but de cette etude etait de detecter la frequence des aberrations chromosomiques chez les deux partenaires et celle des micro-deletions des loci AZF evaluee uniquement chez les hommes azoospermiques soumis a une TESE-ICSI. Resultats Sur ces 350 couples, 12 % avec un caryotype anormal (homme ou femme) ont ete identifies. Les anomalies sont reparties en aberrations chromosomiques structurelles equilibrees, en mosaique de bas niveau des chromosomes sexuels et en variants chromosomiques tels que les inversions chromosomiques. Les anomalies chromosomiques ont ete detectees principalement chez les hommes oligozoospermiques. Des micro-deletions AZF ont ete detectees chez environ 8 % des hommes azoospermiques. L’extraction de spermatozoides par TESE n’a reussi que chez les patients a micro-deletion AZFc. Conclusion La micro deletion de l’integralite des regions AZFa ou AZFb du chromosome Y est synonyme de tres faibles voire absence de chance pour la recuperation des spermatozoides, alors que la majorite des hommes porteurs de deletion de l’AZFc conservent des spermatozoides parfois dans le sperme et souvent dans les testicules pouvant servir pour une ICSI.

Objectifs La coexistence de symptomes du bas appareil urinaire (SBAU) en rapport avec une hypertrophie prostatique (HP) et d’une tumeur vesicale non infiltrant le muscle (TVNIM) est frequente en pratique courante. Le but de notre etude etait d’evaluer le resultat oncologique d’une resection endoscopique simultanee d’une TVNIM et d’une HBP par rapport a une resection d’une TVNIM seule. Methodes Une etude comparative a ete menee dans notre service entre 2000 et 2017. Les criteres d’inclusion du premier groupe (G1) etaient les patients de sexe masculin, ayant des SBAU avec une indication a une resection transuretrale prostatique (RTUP) et ayant subi simultanement, une resection transuretrale vesicale (RTUV) et une RTUP. Le deuxieme groupe (G2) temoin avait inclus les patients ayant des SBAU en rapport avec une HBP et ayant subi une RTUV seule. Le taux et le delai recidive, le taux de recidive dans la loge prostatique (LP) et le taux de progression tumorale ont ete compares dans les deux groupes. Resultats Notre etude a collige 192 cas dont 95 patients du G1 et 97 patients du G2. L’âge moyen etait significativement inferieur dans le G2 (65 ans contre 70 ans). Le taux de tabagisme, les caracteristiques des tumeurs vesicales et le risque de recidive et de progression etaient comparables dans les deux groupes ( Tableau 1 ). En analyse univariee, les deux groupes etaient comparables en ce qui concerne le taux de recidive (41 % pour G1 et 49,4 % pour G2, p = 0,6), le delai moyen de recidive (p = 0,68), le taux de recidive dans la LP (p = 0,87) et le taux de progression (p = 0,4). L’etude multivariee a montre que le taux de recidive globale ajuste etait significativement inferieur dans le G1 (p = 0,035) et qu’une localisation initiale dans l’uretre prostatique n’influence pas le taux de recidives a ce niveau (p = 0,8) ( Tableau 2 ). Conclusion Notre etude a montre que la resection simultanee vesicale et prostatique est faisable sans augmentation du taux de recidive aussi bien au niveau de la LP qu’au niveau de la vessie. Cette technique permettrait ainsi un gain anesthesique et economique interessant.

Objectifs Il est exceptionnel de porter le diagnostic du syndrome de klinefelter avant la puberte. Le diagnostic peut etre parfois porte a l’adolescence devant le defaut de developpement des caracteres sexuels secondaires ou l’apparition d’une gynecomastie. C’est lors d’un bilan d’infertilite primaire, que le diagnostic est suspecte. Les infertilites en rapport avec un syndrome de Klinefelter correspondent a 1,5–3 % de la population des hommes infertiles. Methodes Une etude cytogenetique en bandes RHG avec etude de 125 metaphases a ete menee dans le cadre d’infertilite masculine primaire avec azoospermie et oligospermie severe. Un conseil genetique a ete offert pour chaque patient en pre- et post-analyse. Resultats Parmi les hommes infertiles explores, 41 patients se sont reveles porteurs d’un syndrome de Klinefelter. Sur le plan spermiologique, les patients avaient majoritairement une azoospermie (80 %), et pour lesquels le caryotype a revele une formule 47,XXY homogene. Certains de ces patients azoospermiques ont beneficie d’une tentative d’extraction testiculaire de spermatozoides (TESE) mais uniquement un patient a pu beneficier d’une injection intra-cytoplasmique de spermatozoides (ICSI). Parmi les patients oligospermiques, quatre presentaient des caryotypes en mosaique avec une population cellulaire 46,XY. Deux d’entre eux ont pu concevoir leur propre progeniture par ICSI. Conclusion Il est necessaire de reconsiderer la prise en charge du syndrome de Klinefelter a un âge plus precoce (depistage scolaire). Ce depistage peut etre fait par des techniques non onereuses telles que l’etude de la chromatine sexuelle (corpuscule de BARR). Ce depistage permettrait de pousser les investigations chez les garcons suspects donc de prejuger du succes et d’envisager une ICSI.

Objectifs La fracture de la verge est une urgence urologique qui peut avoir une lourde consequence sur la fonction sexuelle ulterieure. Le but de notre travail etait de determiner les facteurs pronostiques de la fonction sexuelle postoperatoire. Methodes L’âge moyen etait de 31 ans (19–55 ans). Les deux principales circonstances du traumatisme etaient une auto-manipulation de la verge (45 %) et un rapport sexuel (34 %). Le delai de consultation moyen etait de 14,3 heures. La reparation chirurgicale a ete realisee par une incision elective (81 %) ou par degantage de la verge (19 %) ( Tableau 1 ). En postoperatoire, le taux de DE (IEEF5 Tableau 2 ). Resultats L’âge moyen etait de 31 ans (19–55 ans). Les deux principales circonstances du traumatisme etaient une auto-manipulation de la verge (45 %) et un rapport sexuel (34 %). Le delai de consultation moyen etait de 14,3 heures. La reparation chirurgicale a ete realisee par une incision elective (81 %) ou par degantage de la verge (19 %) ( Tableau 1 ). En postoperatoire, le taux de DE (IEEF5 Tableau 2 ). Conclusion Notre etude a montre qu’une chirurgie precoce ameliore la fonction sexuelle postoperatoire, qui depend aussi du siege de la fracture et de la technique operatoire, avec de moins bon resultats pour les fractures de siege proximal et celles operees par voie elective.

Methodes Etude retrospective concernant 75 patients suivis pour CBNPC stade IIIB sur une periode de 1 an allant de juillet 2015 a juillet 2016. Resultats L’âge moyen est de 61 ans pour 91 % de nos patients sont des fumeurs avec un tabagisme moyen a 45 PA. La symptomatologie respiratoire est dominee par la douleur thoracique notee chez 62 % des patients. L’alteration de l’etat general est notee chez 64 % des patients. L’adenocarcinome est le type histologique le plus frequent (66 %) suivi par le carcinome epidermoide (31 %). Au total, 69 % de nos patients ont beneficie d’une chimiotherapie qui etait associee a une radiotherapie chez seulement 13 % des patients. Dans 44 % des cas, un simple traitement symptomatique est indique (PS > 2, âge avance, insuffisance respiratoire). La mediane de survie de nos patients etait de 6 mois. Le sexe feminin, le score PS ≥ 2, l’âge superieur a 60 ans, une denutrition, l’adenocarcinome et l’apparition d’une pleuresie neoplasique ont constitue des facteurs de mauvais pronostic. Conclusion Le pronostic des CBNPC de stade IIIB reste mauvais particulierement chez les patients n’ayant pas recu un traitement specifique.

Introduction La prescription des carbapenemes (CBP) ne cesse de s’accroitre ces dernieres annees. Elle est expliquee par l’emergence d’enterobacteries productrices de betalactamases a spectre etendu (BLSE). L’objectif de ce travail etait d’evaluer la pertinence des prescriptions des CBP au cours des pyelonephrites aigues obstructives. Patients et methodes Il s’agit d’une etude retrospective ayant concernee, sur une periode de 3 ans (janvier 2015 a decembre 2017). Cette etude avait concerne toutes pyelonephrites aigues obstructives traitees par CBP et drainees. Nous avons evalue la prescription des carbapenemes en nous basant sur l’index d’adequation therapeutique (IAT). Ce dernier repose sur un critere majeur qui est la conformite de l’indication par rapport aux recommandations de la societe de pathologie infectieuse de la langue francaise, et des criteres secondaires qui sont la duree du traitement, la posologie, le choix d’une association antibiotique, la reevaluation a 48–72 h et l’adaptation de la prescription. La prescription etait consideree comme non conforme lorsque le score IAT etait superieur a 3. Resultats Durant la periode de l’etude, 58 pyelonephrites aigues obstructives ont ete traitees et drainees. Une carbapeneme a ete prescrite dans 30 cas (51 %). L’âge moyen etait 65 ans (33–93 ans). La sex-ratio H/F etait de 1,23. L’obstacle etait lithiasique dans tous les cas. Les infections etaient nosocomiales dans 5 cas (16 %). Une bacterie BLSE a ete retrouvee dans l’ECBU vesical et/ou le prelevement urinaire pyelique dans 22 cas (73 %) : Escherichia coli (n = 18), Klebsiella pneumoniae (n = 2), Proteus mirabilis (n = 2). La prescription des CBP etait probabiliste dans 8 cas (dont 3 etats de choc septique) et adaptee a l’antibiogramme dans 22 cas. L’imipeneme etait prescrit dans 28 cas (94 %) et l’ertrapeneme dans 2 cas (6 %). La conformite etait rapportee dans 25 cas (84 %) pour l’indication d’une CBP, 25 cas pour la posologie (84 %), 15 cas (50 %) pour la duree, 13 cas pour le choix de l’association d’antibiotique (44 %). L’evaluation globale trouve un IAT inferieur ou egal a 3 dans 20 cas (66 %) traduisant la conformite de la prescription. Conclusion Dans notre serie, plus de 50 % des pyelonephrites aigues obstructives ont necessite la prescription des carbapenemes. Cette prescription etait non conforme aux recommandations dans un tiers des cas

Introduction Le syndrome d’apnee obstructive du sommeil (SAHOS) est une maladie frequente mais sous-diagnostiquee, plusieurs facteurs de risque sont incrimines. Methodes Afin d’analyser les caracteristiques du SAHOS, nous avons mene une etude retrospective allant de janvier 2013 a janvier 2016 concernant 114 patients hospitalises dans notre service pour suspicion de SAOS. Resultats Notre echantillon etait compose de 114 patients dont 73 % etaient de sexe feminin et 27 % de sexe masculin, 87 % d’origine urbain et 13 % d’origine rurale. La moyenne d’âge etait de 58 ans avec des extremes allant de 31 ans a 84 ans. Les antecedents sont representes par le tabagisme (21 %), l’alcool chez 13 % des patients, l’hypertension arterielle chez 69 patients, le diabete chez 33 patients (38 %) l’asthme chez 28 patients (25 %), le syndrome metabolique chez 13 patients (12 %), les troubles lipidiques chez 43 patients (38 %). Les ronflements, la somnolence diurne, les cephalees, l’irritabilite et le manque de concentration etaient rapportees par les patients avec respectivement 98 %, 82 %, 72 %, 69 %, 48 %. L’IMC moyen etait de 31. Le score d’Epworth etait de 12 en moyenne. A l’examen clinique la tension arterielle etait elevee chez 28 patientes. Le SAOS etait modere a severe dans 55 % des cas, avec un IAH moyen de 18 et une SaO2 moyenne de 94 %. La prise en charge therapeutique consistait en un regime hypocalorique chez tous les patients obeses, associe a un traitement positionnel et des regles hygienodietetiques. Le recours a la CPAP etait necessaire chez 44 patients. L’evolution etait favorable chez l’ensemble des patients avec un IAH de controle qui classe leur SAHOS dans les limites du leger. Conclusion A travers cette etude le SAHOS est plus frequent chez les femmes, les principaux facteurs de risque sont le tabac, l’obesite et l’HTA.

- Abstract
Introduction: Penile fracture is a post-traumatic condition affecting the tunica albuginea of the corpora cavernosa when erect. Clinical diagnosis and urgent surgical intervention are crucial to avoid severe functional complications, particularly erectile dysfunction. We aimed to evaluate male sexual function after surgical treatment in patients with penile fracture and to identify predictive factors of postoperative erectile dysfunction., Methods: We underwent a hospital-based retrospective study on patients who underwent surgical repair for fractures of the corpora cavernosa between 2012 and 2023. Included in this study were all patients who have a postoperative follow-up of at least 12 months. Patients were clinically evaluated for the presence of erectile dysfunction and the presence of postoperative penile curvature. The patients were asked to answer the structured questionnaire of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-15)., Results: We included 87 patients. The mean age was 38 ± 12 years. Fourteen patients (16%) developed a fibrous plaque, with a median onset time of 30 days postoperatively. Erectile dysfunction was noted in forty-four patients (51%). Active smoking (p < 0.002), the surgical approach (p = 0.02), a consultation time > 7.5 h (p = 0.01), a length of the discontinuity of the corpora cavernosa > 2.5 cm (p = 0.01) and the use of an erection inhibitor postoperatively (p = 0.021) were independent predictive factors of erectile dysfunction at 1 year postoperatively., Conclusion: Considering the results of our study, we propose rapid and urgent surgical management for penile fractures, and an elective surgical approach may be considered. We emphasize the fundamental role of sexual education, especially for young people, in preventing this sexual accident that could negatively impact their sexual life., Competing Interests: Declarations Conflict of interest The authors declare no competing interests. Ethical approval and consent to participate The study was approved by the ethics committee of THE RABTA UNIVERSITY HOPITAL, TUNIS. Approval was granted by THE RABTA UNIVERSITY HOPITAL LOCAL ETHICS COMMITTEE (ID: 19011989) (Approval date: 20/03/2023).

- Abstract
Background: Synchronous abscesses of the prostate and seminal vesicles represent a rare but clinically significant form of purulent retention. They pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges and are associated with considerable morbidity and a high risk of sepsis., Case Presentation: We present the case of a 60-year-old Caucasian man with a history of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, who had a voluminous prostatic abscess associated with a right seminal vesicle abscess due to compression of the right ejaculatory duct, and who presented to our department with sepsis. He had clinical and radiological confirmation with computed tomography scan and magnetic resonance imaging. The patient underwent percutaneous drainage of the prostatic abscess resulting in the subsidence of the seminal vesicle abscess. The treatment also consisted on prolonged antibiotic therapy. The clinical evolution was favorable., Conclusion: We conclude that prostatic abscesses can lead to synchronous seminal vesicle abscesses due to ejaculatory duct compression. Percutaneous drainage of the prostatic abscess by transrectal ultrasound-guided drainage, combined with prolonged antibiotic therapy, can effectively treat both abscesses., (© 2024. The Author(s).)

- Abstract
Objective: To scrutinize the progression of clinical reasoning and theoretical knowledge by comparing the impact of Clinical Reasoning-Based Learning (CRBL) sessions with interactive lectures (IL)., Methods: In this experimental study conducted from November 15, 2021, to May 7, 2022, we focused on second-year students in the second cycle of medical studies. Four specific urologic emergency scenarios (nephritic colic, macroscopic hematuria, acute scrotal pain, and urinary incontinence in men) were selected for interactive teaching sessions. Four groups were studied. One urology item was taught via CRBL, the rest via IL. Each item was taught once with CRBL and thrice with IL. After instruction, learners took a 10-point evaluative test with multiple-choice questions and clinical scenarios., Results: Four groups of 14 learners attended our department, for a total number of 56 participants. Each student attended 4 learning sessions (1 CRBL session and 3 ILs) with a number of tests completed at 4 for each. The total number of tests taken was 224. The scoring of each test was out of 10 with theoretical scores between 0 and 10. The overall median score was 7/10. We noted better ratings after the CRBL sessions (n = 56) with a median of 8/10 [4-10] compared to the IL sessions (n = 168) whose median was 6 [3-10] with a significant difference between the 2 learning methods (P <.001)., Conclusion: The CRBL sessions were significantly better than the ILs at developing the clinical reasoning and theoretical knowledge in urology of our medical students., Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2024 The Authors.

- Abstract
Introduction: The modified 5-item frailty index is a relatively new tool to assess the post-operative complication risks. In urology, there is limited literature on the impact of frailty on percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) outcomes. We aimed to compare the predictive value of the modified 5-item frailty index (mFI-5) to identify high risk patients prior to PCNL., Methods: A database of patients undergoing PCNL, between 2015 and 2022, was analyzed. Patient frailty was assessed using the mFI-5 index. The mFI-5 index was calculated based on the presence of the five co-morbidities: congestive heart failure within 30 days prior to surgery, diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, partially dependent or totally dependent functional health status at time of surgery, and hypertension requiring medication. Patients were grouped as not frail (mFI-5 = 0), intermediate (mFI-5 = 1), and severely frail (mFI-5 ≥ 2). Primary outcomes were 30-day postoperative complications. Secondary outcomes were hospitalization: total hospital length of stay, reoperation, and unplanned readmission., Results: From a total of 320 PCNL patients included for analysis, 54.06% (n = 173) were not frail, 17.81% (n = 57) were intermediate, and 28.12% (n = 90) were severely frail. Frail patients were likely to be older (p = 0.002) and have a higher American Society of Anesthesiologists score (p = 0.001), chronic kidney disease (p < 0.001). Patients of intermediate or severe frailty were more likely to exhibit postoperative sepsis (p = 0.042), significant blood loss (p = 0.036) and require intensive care units admissions (p = 0.0015). Frail patients had a longer hospital length of stay (p < 0.001) and tended to require reoperation (p = 0.001), and unplanned readmission (p = 0.02)., Conclusion: Frailty assessment appears useful in stratifying those at risk of extended hospitalization, septic and hemorrhagic complications, readmission, or reoperation after PCNL. Preoperative assessment of frailty phenotype may give insight into treatment decisions and assist surgeons in counselling patients on expected course and hospital stay following PCNL., (© 2024.

- Abstract
Introduction: Our study aimed to evaluate the performance of Quick Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA), Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS), National Early Warning Score (NEWS), Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS), and Global Research in the Emphysematous Pyelonephritis group (GREMP) in predicting the need of admission in intensive care units (ICU) for emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) patient., Patients and Methods: In this retrospective study, we reviewed 70 patients admitted to our department from January 2008 to October 2022. Data on clinical presentation and EPN management were noted. The five scoring systems were calculated by one investigator. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to assess predictive factors of severe sepsis and mortality. Statistical analysis was made using SPSS version 22., Results: Mean age was 61.83 years with 65.7% diabetes. As per Huang and Tseng classification, 41 patients had class I EPN, 7 had class II EPN, 8 had class IIIa, 6 class IIIB EPN, and 8 had class IV EPN. Seventeen patients (24.28%) were admitted to ICU with an 18.57 mortality rate. Univariate analysis showed that ICU admission was significantly associated with higher respiration rate and heart rate, lower systolic blood pressure, confusion, CRP, lactate and creatinine serum (p = 0.0001, p = 0.0001, p = 0.001, p = 0.007, p = 0.004, p = 0.001, p = 0.001, respectively). All five scores and Huang and Tseng classification were significantly predictive of admission to ICU. All five scores showed good results under the area curves to predict ICU entry with 0.915, 0.895, 0.968, 0.887, and 0.846 for qSOFA, MEWS score, NEWS score, SIRS, and GREMP score, respectively., Conclusion: NEWS score seemed to be the best performing physiologic score among the five scoring systems studied and may help with biological and radiological findings to quickly identify EPN patients that need intensive care unit., (© 2023.

- Abstract
Fibrous pseudo tumor of the tunica vaginalis is a rare lesion affecting men representing a challenge in its diagnosis and treatment. We reported the case of a 17 year old male patient who presented for a right scrotal mass. Surgical resection of the mass was performed and the histological diagnosis was a fibrous pseudo tumor of the tunica vaginalis. It is usually affecting men in the third decade and the fear is to miss its main differential diagnosis which is testicular cancer. Studies should give more concern to this entity, so that we can avoid unnecessary orchiectomy., (© 2023 The Authors.)

- Abstract
Introduction: Post-traumatic rupture of the posterior urethra is a serious injury that can compromise the micturition and erectile prognosis of the often-young patient. The management of this lesion is still controversial, leaving the choice between early endoscopic realignment or suprapubic catheterization with deferred urethroplasty. The objective of this study was to report our clinical experience and outcomes with early endoscopic realignment (EER) for patients with pelvic fracture urethral injury., Patients and Methods: We underwent a retrospective review of patients with pelvic fracture associated urethral injury who underwent EER from 2010 to 2020. Preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative outcome data were collected. Complications for the surgical procedure were analyzed, as well as postoperative stenosis, urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction. The primary endpoint was success, defined as satisfying micturition with no urethral stricture at the time of last follow-up., Results: Early endoscopic realignment was performed in 26 patients managed for complete post-traumatic posterior urethral rupture. The median age was 26 (16-39) years. The most common mechanism of urethral injury was road traffic accidents in 69.23% of cases. The most common urethral injury was grade 4 in 23 patients (88.46%). The median time to endoscopic realignment was 8 days (3-18). The median time to postoperative bladder catheterization was 22 (10-32) days. The median follow-up time was 34 (18-54) months. Ten patients developed urethral stricture during follow-up: 7 (26.92%) were treated with one or two internal cold blade urethrotomies, 3 required urethroplasty. There were no urethroplasty failures after a first endoscopic realignment. Two patients reported severe stress urinary incontinence. The median IIEF-5 score at the date of last news was 23 (17-25)., Conclusion: Early endoscopic realignment allows some patients to avoid a heavier surgical treatment, and doesn't compromise the realization of a later urethroplasty., (Copyright © 2023 The Authors.

- Abstract
Introduction: The management of post-traumatic rupture of the posterior urethra remains controversial, leaving the choice between early endoscopic realignment (EER) or suprapubic catheterization with deferred urethroplasty. The objective is to compare the results of endoscopic realignment and those of urethroplasty in terms of voiding., Patients and Methods: We underwent a retrospective study collating all patients managed for post-traumatic complete urethral rupture between 2010 and 2020. These patients were subdivided into two groups: a first one including those who had an endoscopic realignment and a second one including those who had a deferred urethroplasty. We studied the quality of voiding and the complications that occurred in each group. The success of the technique was defined by the resumption of a satisfactory voiding, and the absence of recourse to the urethroplasty in case of endoscopic realignment. Satisfactory voiding was defined by a Qmax ≥ 15 mL/s and a post-void residual (PVR) < 150 ml by ultrasound., Results: Fifty-eight patients were identified. The mean age was 32 ± 12 years. Endoscopic realignment was performed in 26 patients. Satisfactory voiding was reported in 16 patients (61.53%). Recourse to internal urethrotomy after realignment was reported in 7 patients (26.92%). Three failures of endoscopic realignment were reported, necessitating an urethroplasty. Two patients reported urinary incontinence. Urethroplasty was performed in 32 patients. Satisfactory voiding was noted in 22 patients (68.75%). The use of internal urethrotomy after surgery was reported in 5 patients (15.62%). Three patients had treated urinary incontinence. Comparing the two groups, there was no significant difference in postoperative IPSS, flow rate (Q
max ), post-void residual urine volume (PVR), satisfactory voiding, and stress urinary incontinence., Conclusion: The voiding outcomes were comparable for both techniques. We conclude that endoscopic realignment can be indicated in first intention, provided certain conditions are met, in order to minimize the morbidity of prolonged suprapubic drainage., (© 2023.
