Abstract

A 48-year-old man with a medical history of hypertension and no family history of prostate cancer presented with abdominal distension, lower abdominal pain, and lower urinary symptoms. Physical examination revealed a palpable mass in the lower abdomen, and a digital rectal examination detected a firm mass on the anterior side of the rectum. Laboratory tests showed an elevated PSA level (7.9 ng/mL). Imaging studies indicated a solid mass connected to the prostate's posterior and rectum's anterior walls, along with bladder compression. Transperitoneal biopsy and histological analysis led to a diagnosis of a stromal tumor with uncertain potential malignancy. Considering the absence of apparent malignancy signs and the smooth outer wall of the tumor, the patient underwent, for the first time in the literature, a robot-assisted radical extraperitoneal prostatectomy for complete macroscopic resection. The surgery involved excision of the bulky pelvic mass, preservation of the urethra, and anatomical reconstruction. The postoperative course was uneventful, and we discharged the patient with no complications. The pathological examination documented the diagnosis of multilocular prostatic cystadenoma. Post-surgery follow-up examinations, including PSA levels and imaging scans, showed no signs of tumor recurrence. At the 3-, 6-, and 9-month follow-ups, the patient was asymptomatic and had fully recovered, with no urinary or sexual dysfunction reported. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: To report health-related quality of life outcomes as assessed by validated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) after radical prostatectomy (RP).-Methods: This study analyzed patients treated with RP within The PROState cancer monitoring in Italy, from the National Research Council (Pros-IT CNR). Italian versions of Short-Form Heath Survey and university of California los Angeles-prostate cancer index questionnaires were administered. PROMs were physical composite scores, mental composite scores and urinary, bowel, sexual functions and bothers (UF/B, BF/B, SF/B). Baseline unbalances were controlled with propensity scores and stabilized inverse weights; differences in PROMs between different RP approaches were estimated by mixed models. Results: Of 541 patients treated with RP, 115 (21%) received open RP (ORP), 90 (17%) laparoscopic RP (LRP) and 336 (61%) robot-assisted RP (RARP). At head-to-head-comparisons, RARP showed higher 12-month UF vs. LRP (interaction treatment ∗ time p = 0.03) and 6-month SF vs. ORP (p < 0.001). At 12-month from surgery, 67, 73 and 79% of patients used no pad for urinary loss in ORP, LRP and RARP respectively (no differences for each comparison). Conversely, 16, 27 and 40% of patients declared erections firm enough for sexual intercourse in ORP, LRP and RARP respectively (only significant difference for ORP vs. RARP, p = 0.0004). Conclusions: Different RP approaches lead to significant variations in urinary and sexual PROMs, with a general trend in favour of RARP. However, their clinical significance seems limited.

Abstract

To evaluate the effectiveness of electro-mediated drug administration of mitomycin C (EMDA/MMC) after transurethral resection of the bladder tumour (TURBT) in preventing non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) recurrence and progression and to explore clinical and demographic factors associated with treatment response. Between April 2016 and August 2019, 112 patients diagnosed with intermediate- or high-risk NMIBC underwent a TURBT followed by an EMDA/MMC treatment. The percentage of treatment responders and progression-free survivors at 3 and 6 months were evaluated. Follow-up data were available for 101 patients (90%) at 3 months and 92 (82%) at 6 months. Response rates to EMDA/MMC treatment were 85% at 3 months and 75% at 6 months, and progression-free rates were 94% and 90%, respectively. No statistically significant differences were seen between intermediate- and high-risk patients. A higher risk of tumour recurrence and progression was associated with previous Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) failure. According to the Clavien–Dindo classification, only low-grade complications were observed. EMDA/MMC after TURBT was associated with high response and progression-free rates at 3 and 6 months, with only low-grade adverse events. These results confirm the efficacy and safety of EMDA/MMC as a therapeutic option for both intermediate- and high-risk patients. However, patients with BCG failure responded poorly to EMDA/MMC.

Abstract

Background: To report health-related quality of life outcomes as assessed by validated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) after radical prostatectomy (RP). ­Methods: This study analyzed patients treated with RP within The PROState cancer monitoring in Italy, from the National Research Council (Pros-IT CNR). Italian versions of Short-Form Heath Survey and university of California los Angeles-prostate cancer index questionnaires were administered. PROMs were physical composite scores, mental composite scores and urinary, bowel, sexual functions and bothers (UF/B, BF/B, SF/B). Baseline unbalances were controlled with propensity scores and stabilized inverse weights; differences in PROMs between different RP approaches were estimated by mixed models. Results: Of 541 patients treated with RP, 115 (21%) received open RP (ORP), 90 (17%) laparoscopic RP (LRP) and 336 (61%) robot-assisted RP (RARP). At head-to-head ­comparisons, RARP showed higher 12-month UF vs. LRP (interaction treatment * time p = 0.03) and 6-month SF vs. ORP (p < 0.001). At 12-month from surgery, 67, 73 and 79% of patients used no pad for urinary loss in ORP, LRP and RARP respectively (no differences for each comparison). Conversely, 16, 27 and 40% of patients declared erections firm enough for sexual intercourse in ORP, LRP and RARP respectively (only significant difference for ORP vs. RARP, p = 0.0004). Conclusions: Different RP approaches lead to significant variations in urinary and sexual PROMs, with a general trend in favour of RARP. However, their clinical significance seems limited.

Abstract

Introduction Proper management of patients undergoing robotic-assisted urologic and gynecologic surgery must consider a series of peculiarities in the procedures for anesthesiology, critical care medicine, respiratory care, and pain management. Although the indications for robotic-assisted urogynecologic surgeries have increased in recent years, specific guidance documents are still lacking. Evidence acquisition A multidisciplinary group including anesthesiologists, gynecologists, urologists, and a clinical epidemiologist systematically reviewed the relevant literature and provided a set of recommendations and unmet needs on peculiar aspects of anesthesia in this field. Evidence synthesis Nine core contents were identified, according to their requirements in urogynecologic robotic-assisted surgery: patient position, pneumoperitoneum and ventilation strategies, hemodynamic variations and fluid therapy, neuromuscular block, renal surgery and prevention of acute kidney injury, monitoring the Department of anesthesia, postoperative delirium and cognitive dysfunction, prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting, and pain management in endometriosis. Conclusions This consensus document provides guidance for the management of urologic and gynecologic patients scheduled for robotic-assisted surgery. Moreover, the identified unmet needs highlight the requirement for further prospective randomized studies.

Abstract

International audience; OBJECTIVE:To report penile integrity measures, including stretched penile length (SPL), from a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled trial evaluating treatment with tadalafil initiated after nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy (nsRP).METHODS:Patients aged ≤ 68 years were randomized after nsRP 1:1:1 to 9-month double-blind treatment (DBT) with tadalafil 5 mg once daily (OaD), 20-mg tadalafil on-demand ("pro-re-nata"; PRN), or placebo, followed by 6-week drug-free washout and 3-month open-label OaD treatment. Secondary outcome measures included the change in SPL from pre-nsRP to the end of DBT (analysis of covariance adjusting for treatment, country, baseline, age, and nerve-sparing score), responses to Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP) questions 1-3 (mixed models for repeated measures adjusting for treatment, country, visit, visit-treatment-interaction, age), and Standardized Morning Erection Question (Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test adjusted for age and country).RESULTS:Four hundred twenty-three patients were randomized to tadalafil OaD (N = 139), tadalafil PRN (N = 143), and placebo (N = 141). Greater retainment of SPL was observed with tadalafil OaD vs placebo at the end of DBT (least-square mean [95% confidence interval] difference OaD vs placebo, 4.1 mm [0.4 to 7.8 mm]; P = .032). No significant effects on SPL were found for tadalafil PRN vs placebo, or for the nerve-sparing score. Penile tumescence (SEP1) and ability for vaginal insertion (SEP2) significantly improved vs placebo at the end of double-blind and open-label treatment for patients randomized to tadalafil OaD only. The ability for successful sexual intercourse (SEP3) significantly improved with tadalafil OaD vs placebo only during DBT. The distribution of Standardized Morning Erection Question responses was different at the end of DBT (P = .045); 34.2% of patients on tadalafil OaD, 50.0% on tadalafil PRN, and 56.5% on placebo reported absence of morning erections.CONCLUSION:These data suggest the early initiation of tadalafil OaD protects from penile length loss and may contribute to protection from structural cavernosal changes after nsRP.
