ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the association between AGD and the risk of PCa. METHODS: Incident case-control study, conducted on 153 patients. All patients underwent prostate biopsy for abnormal digital rectal exam and/or prostate antigen elevation. Two variants of AGD [anus to scrotum base (AGDas) and anus to dorsal insertion of penis (AGDap) were measured. Student's t-test was used to analyze continuous variables and chi-square for discrete variables. Differences in AGD (raw and adjusted) measures between cases and controls were assessed using the ANCOVA test. RESULTS: There is significant association between the diagnose of PCa and both AGD, patients diagnosed with PCa had both AGD measures shortened, in the crude and the full adjusted models. CONCLUSIONS: This research suggests that the same gestational environmental exposures, could represent a weak androgen signaling and may also have an increased risk of prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT

The treatment of choice of penile paraffinoma (PP) is surgical resection. Penile soft tissue coverage in a combined Urology/Plastic Surgery procedure, is often needed. OBJECTIVE: To describe the surgical techniques, aesthetics and functional outcomes, and to provide a practical algorithm for the surgical management of symptomatic PP. METHODS: We retrospectively recruited PP patients treated with surgical resection, from 2004 to 2020, in the Reina Sofia Hospital of Murcia (Spain) and Sourasky Medical Center (Israel). Procedural and postoperative erectile function, according to the short version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) data were collected. RESULTS: Eight patients underwent surgery. The mean age was 30 years. The mean time between substance injection and surgery was 6 years. The most frequently injected material was liquid paraffin (50%), followed by Vaseline. Extensive skin involvement was present in all patients with liquid paraffin, requiring 2-stage surgery or skin graft. PP surgical treatment was successfully achieved in an Urology/Plastic Surgery joined effort. Postoperative erectile function was preserved in all cases. CONCLUSION: PP can pose a surgical challenge. A combined surgical approach with urology and plastics allows for functional and aesthetic preservation. The extent of PP and the viability of shaft skin preservation should guide surgical approach.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Describe the medium-term safety of the tension free vaginal tape obturator (TVT-O) procedure in terms of complications, cure and changes in quality of life (QoL) after the surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Descriptive historical cohort that included women over 18 years of age who underwent TVT-O due to objectively proven stress urinary incontinence, urethral hypermobility or mixed urinary incontinence in which the stress component predominated, confirmed on urodynamic testing between July 2013-April 2017, in a reference hospital located in the city of Murcia Spain. Women with previous anti-incontinence surgery, concomitant vaginal surgery and planning pregnancy were excluded. Follow-up was determined for each patient based on the time elapsed between surgery and the time when the research protocol was applied. Complications were stratified according to the modified Clavien-Dindo classification; also we evaluated subjective cure rate, quality of life using the ICIQ-SF score, before and after surgery. RESULTS: The mean age was 52.6 (SD± 10.5) years and 80.1% of patients were at least overweight. The incidence of complications at 12 months was: 8.3% (12/144). We did not detect complications after this period in the followed patients at 24, 36 and 48 months. The subjective cure determined at 12, 24, 36 and 48 months was 62.5% (90/144), 59.09% (55/88), 50.81% (31/61) and 50% (7/14), respectively. There was a significant improvement in quality of life, as determined by the ICQ-SF mean score before and after surgery (13.76[6,34] vs 3.84[5.76]; p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The TVT-O surgery is a safe therapy associated with a low complication incidence at 12 months, an acceptable subjective cure rate in stress urinary incontinence, and quality-of-life improvement. Classifications of complications related to the insertion of the prosthesis and of those inherent to surgery, such as urinary tract infection, are required.


Objetivo: describir la seguridad a mediano plazo del procedimiento con el cabestrillo suburetral transobturador dentro-fuera (en inglés: tension free vaginal tape obturator TVT-O) en términos de: complicaciones, cura y cambios en la calidad de vida después de la cirugía. Materiales y métodos: cohorte histórica descriptiva que incluye mujeres mayores de 18 años intervenidas de TVT-O por incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo (IUE) objetivamente comprobada, hipermovilidad uretral o incontinencia urinaria mixta en la que predominó el componente de esfuerzo, confirmada en prueba urodinámica entre julio del 2013 y abril del 2017 en un hospital de referencia ubicado en la ciudad de Murcia, España. Se excluyeron mujeres con cirugía previa de incontinencia, cirugía vaginal concomitante y planificación del embarazo. El seguimiento se determinó para cada paciente por el tiempo transcurrido desde la cirugía hasta el momento en que se aplicó el protocolo de investigación. Las complicaciones se estratificaron según la clasificación de Dindo-Clavien modificada, además, se evaluaron la tasa de curación subjetiva y la calidad de vida mediante el International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF) antes y después de la cirugía. Resultados: la edad media de las pacientes fue de 52,59 (DE±10,46) años, el 80,1 % tenía al menos sobrepeso. La incidencia de complicaciones en los primeros 12 meses fue del 8,3%. No detectamos complicaciones después de este periodo en las pacientes seguidas a 24, 36 y 48 meses. La curación subjetiva determinada a los 12, 24, 36 y 48 meses fue del 62,5% (90/144), 59,09% (55/88), 50,81% (31/61) y 50% (7/14), respectivamente. Hubo una mejoría significativa en la calidad de vida, en términos de puntuación media ICQ-SF antes y después de la cirugía (13,76 [6,34] vs 3,84 [5,76]; p < 0,05). Conclusiones: el TVT-O es una terapia segura, con baja tasa de complicaciones a los 12 meses, aceptable tasa de curación subjetiva de la IUE y una mejora en la calidad de vida. Se necesitan clasificaciones de complicaciones relacionadas con la inserción de la prótesis y que incluyan complicaciones inherentes a la cirugía, como la infección del tracto urinario.
