ABSTRACT

Background/Objectives: The aim was to develop a decision tree and a new prognostic tool to predict cancer-specific survival in patients with urothelial bladder cancer treated with radical cystectomy. Methods: A total of 11,834 patients with bladder cancer treated with radical cystectomy between 2004 and 2019 from the SEER database were randomly split into the derivation (n = 7889) and validation cohorts (n = 3945). Survival curves were estimated using conditional decision tree analysis. We used Multiple Imputation by Chained Equations for the treatment of missing values and the pec package to compare the predictive performance. We extracted data from our model following CHARMS and assessed the risk of bias and applicability with PROBAST. Results: A total of 4824 (41%) patients died during the follow-up period due to bladder cancer. A decision tree was made and 12 groups were obtained. Patients with a higher AJCC stage and older age have a worse prognosis. The risk groups were summarized into high, intermediate and low risk. The integrated Brier scores between 0 and 191 months for the bootstrap estimates of the prediction error are the lowest for our conditional survival tree (0.189). The model showed a low risk of bias and low concern about applicability. The results must be externally validated. Conclusions: Decision tree analysis is a useful tool with significant discrimination. With this tool, we were able to stratify patients into 12 subgroups and 3 risk groups with a low risk of bias and low concern about applicability.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Since May 2022, 31 000 cases of monkeypox infection have been reported in nonendemic areas. OBJECTIVE: To describe a series of cases of monkeypox with genitourinary involvement. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This was a prospective observational study of men diagnosed with monkeypox disease with genitourinary involvement. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: A total of 14 patients were recruited. The median age was 42 yr. Of these patients, 43% sought a consultation for genitourinary symptomatology, and 71% had engaged in sex with other men. Eight patients (57%) were positive for human immunodeficiency virus, one diagnosed synchronously; the remainder had a median CD4 count of 663/µl. Six patients (43%) had a different sexually transmitted disease. Penile oedema was present in 43% of patients and two patients required surgical exploration. CONCLUSIONS: Genitourinary involvement is frequent in monkeypox disease and is often the reason for the consultation visit. PATIENTS SUMMARY: In this report we looked at how monkeypox disease can affect the genitourinary area, causing swelling of the penis or skin lesions.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: The aim was to study the efficacy and tolerance in patients with haemorrhagic radiation-induced cystitis (HRC) treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HOT) and analyze which factors were related to the response to the treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients treated with HOT for HRC symptoms in a provincial referral centre from 2010 to 2020. We evaluated clinical response to treatment, number of hospitalizations due to HRC and subjective response using the PGI-I questionnaire. RESULTS: We treated 52 patients, with a median of 30 sessions, during 6 months and 40 months (6-68 months) of follow-up. 69.2%of patients responded completely and 21,2% partially. The 53.2% of patients improved before the first 10 sessions. Reduction of hospitalizations/per year due to haematuria from 2.8 to 1.1 (p=0,001). The 73,5% of patients stated that they were "very much better" or "much better" after treatment. During the follow-up, 15.4% of patients had recurrence of HRC. 9.6% of the patients required salvage cystectomy. The patients with a highest RTOG-EORTC scale had more risk to still with symptoms (OR 3.01 (IC95 1.48 - 6.16). All patients were able to complete the proposed treatment plan with good tolerance to HOT. CONCLUSIONS: These results show the clinical benefit of HOT in the treatment of HRC, with a reduction of the number of hospitalizations and a subjective improvement.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: To identify risk-predictive models for bladder-specific cancer mortality in patients undergoing radical cystectomy and assess their clinical utility and risk of bias. METHODS: Systematic review (CRD42021224626:PROSPERO) in Medline and EMBASE (from their creation until 31/10/2021) was screened to include articles focused on the development and internal validation of a predictive model of specific cancer mortality in patients undergoing radical cystectomy. CHecklist for critical Appraisal and data extraction for systematic Reviews of prediction Modelling Studies (CHARMS) and Prediction model Risk Of Bias ASsessment Tool (PROBAST) were applied. RESULTS: Nineteen observational studies were included. The main predictors were sociodemographic variables, such as age (18 studies, 94.7%) and sex (17, 89.5% studies), tumour characteristics (TNM stage (18 studies, 94.7%), histological subtype/grade (15 studies, 78.9%), lymphovascular invasion (10 studies, 52.6%) and treatment with chemotherapy (13 studies, 68.4%). C-index values were presented in 14 studies. The overall risk of bias assessed using PROBAST led to 100% of studies being classified as high risk (the analysis domain was rated to be at high risk of bias in all the studies), and 52.6% showed low applicability. Only 5 studies (26.3%) included an external validation and 2 (10.5%) included a prospective study design. CONCLUSIONS: Using clinical predictors to assess the risk of bladder-specific cancer mortality is a feasibility alternative. However, the studies showed a high risk of bias and their applicability is uncertain. Studies should improve the conducting and reporting, and subsequent external validation studies should be developed.

ABSTRACT

Bladder cancer (BC) is an important cause of premature mortality (PM, <75 years). Spain has one of the highest BC mortality rates in Europe. The objective of this study was to analyse BC mortality trends between 1999 and 2018 in Spain. The study was based on data from the National Institute of Statistics (Instituto Nacional de Estadística-INE). Age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) were calculated by sex and age group. A trend analysis was performed using Joinpoint regression models and years of potential life lost (YPLL). Mortality in men resulting from BC decreased in all age groups studied. This was not observed in women, for whom mortality only decreased in the ≥75 age group. Deaths due to BC occurred prematurely in 38.6% of men and in 23.8% of women, which indicated a greater impact on YPLL in men compared to women. Over the last 20 years, there has been a significant decrease in BC mortality rate, except in women under 75 years of age. Despite this temporal trend of decreasing mortality, BC continues to have a significant impact on YPLL, mainly in men. Given this context, it is important to direct more resources towards prevention and early diagnosis strategies to correct this situation.

ABSTRACT

AIMS: To establish the long-term efficacy and safety of bladder augmentation in spina bifida patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Sixteen patients were operated on using the Bramble technique. Preoperative and postoperative evaluation included clinical history, blood tests, urine cultures, cystography, pyelography, ultrasound, and filling cystometry. In the final review a standardized quality of life questionnaire was applied. RESULTS: Median follow-up was 20 years (15-26). Kidney function was stabilized except for one case that required a kidney transplant. Hydronephrosis disappeared or improved (p = 0.03). Vesicoureteral reflux grades I-II was cured without reimplantation and grades III-IV responded better with reimplantation than without (p = 0.03). Quality of life improved in all patients, with all stating they would undergo the procedure again. After surgery, 94% of the patients exhibited diurnal continence but 25% exhibited nocturnal incontinence. Pressure at capacity decreased and bladder capacity increased (p < 0.001). One patient presented ureteral fistula with another presenting hemorrhage. Both required immediate surgical review. Late complications included urinary sphincter cuff erosion, renal lithiasis, four instances of bladder lithiasis and repeated pyelonephritis in one 24-year-old patient. All required surgery. The mean of urinary infections fell, from 2.5 per year (0.7) to 1 (0.5) (p = 0.03). CONCLUSION: Augmentation cystoplasty (AC) maintains its efficacy and improves quality of life in the long term. However, serious surgical complications can ensue, along with minor or major subsequent complications. This should be considered before surgery and makes lifelong monitoring of patients necessary.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Bacterial presence, anatomic anomalies and metabolic alterations increase the risk of stone formation in patients with neobladders. These patients sometimes require medical or surgical procedures. The aim of the current work is to analyze those alterations and medical treatment associated to it. METHODS: A case of a 66 yo male who had undergone a cystectomy with neobladder 3 years ago. Currently present with a staghorn stone on the right kidney. Past medical history of stone formation as well as double J calcification. RESULTS: The combination of medical and surgical treatment for stone was performed. Medical therapy will allow prevention of new stones. CONCLUSIONS: Metabolic and chronic infections in patients with neobladders treated should decreased the new stone formation in patients with neobladders.

ABSTRACT

In hysterectomized patients, even though there is still controversy, evidence indicates that in the short term, the vaginal approach shows benefits over the laparoscopic approach, as it is less invasive, faster and less costly. However, the quality of sexual life has not been systematically reviewed in terms of the approach adopted. Through a systematic review, we analyzed (CRD42020158465 in PROSPERO) the impact of hysterectomy on sexual quality and whether there are differences according to the surgical procedure (abdominal or vaginal) for noncancer patients. MEDLINE (through PubMed), Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, ClinicalTrials.gov and Scopus were reviewed to find randomized clinical trials assessing sexuality in noncancer patients undergoing total hysterectomy, comparing vaginal and abdominal (laparoscopic and/or open) surgery. Three studies that assessed the issue under study were finally included. Two of these had a low risk of bias (Cochrane risk of bias tool); one was unclear. There was significant variability in how sexuality was measured, with no differences between the two approaches considered in the review. In conclusion, no evidence was found to support one procedure (abdominal or vaginal) over another for non-oncological hysterectomized patients regarding benefits in terms of sexuality.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Prostatic abscess is an infrequent but serious pathology that could be treated by ultrasound-guided puncture, transurethral resection, or open surgery. Case Report: We present a case of a 72-year-old male with a 3x5 cm prostatic abscess in the right lobe showed in abdominal computed tomography (CT). In the blood test, he presented coagulopathy. Urgent transurethral drainage by holmium laser was decided to be performed. It started with incision and opening of the right prostatic lobe with an energy of 1.2 J and a frequency of 20 Hz with a total power of 24 W. A 550-micron fiber was used for this technique. Coagulation of the area was performed with a power of 20 W. The postoperative course was uneventful. Conclusion: The holmium laser appears to be an effective alternative in the treatment of this pathology in patients with coagulation disorders by providing adequate hemostatic control.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: El cáncer de próstata (CP) avanzado es una entidad frecuente. Los objetivos de este trabajo son la presentación de una serie de pacientes con CP en tratamiento con Terapia de Deprivación Androgénica (TDA) en práctica clínica habitual y la determinación de parámetros asociados al desarrollo de resistencia a la castración (CPRC). MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Estudio multicéntrico, observacional, retrospectivo que analiza pacientes tratados con TDA desde enero 2016 hasta enero 2017. Análisis descriptivo de las variables clínicas más relevantes, análisis univariante y supervivencia libre de progresión mediante test Kaplan-Meier. RESULTADOS: Muestra 952 pacientes. Al diagnóstico del CP edad mediana 74 años. Mediana de PSA al diagnóstico de CP 23 ng/ml, al inicio TDA 20,2 ng/ml. El 80,2% de pacientes tenían biopsia al diagnóstico del CP: 28,2% grado pronóstico Gleason grupo 1, 38,7% grados 2 y 3 y 33,1% grados 4 y 5. Tratamiento inicial del CP: 75,9% TDA, prostatectomía radical 8,4% y radioterapia 15,1%. De los 952 pacientes, 281 (29,6%) cumplían criterios de CPRC. En este grupo el 21,7% alcanzó PSA indetectable (<0,1 ng/ml) con la TDA 20,2 frente al grupo no CPRC en el que lo alcanzaron el 59,9%. Encontramos mayor probabilidad de progresión a CPRC en pacientes con PSA al diagnóstico de CP > 30 ng/ml (p = 0,000, OR 2,78), grado pronóstico Gleason grupos 4-5 (p = 0,000, OR 2,33) y en aquellos que no alcanzan PSA indetectable tras TDA (p < 0,01, OR 3,32) variables que se relacionan con los tiempos de progresión a CPRC y especialmente al estadio metastásico. CONCLUSIONES: Se presenta una serie de pacientes CP avanzado en tratamiento con TDA que muestra heterogeneidad de características y de manejo según práctica clínica habitual. En nuestra serie el PSA elevado al diagnóstico, histología desfavorable y no alcanzar un PSA< 0,1 ng/ml tras la TDA se presentan como indicadores de progresión a estadio CPRC


OBJECTIVES: Advanced prostate cancer (PC) is a frequent entity. The objectives of this paper are the presentation of a sample of patients with PC undergoing treatment with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in usual clinical practice and the determination of parameters associated with the development of resistance to castration (CRPC). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Multicenter, observational, retrospective study that analyzes patients treated with ADT from January 2016 to January 2017. Descriptive analysis of the most relevant clinical variables and univariante analysis and progression times by Kaplan-Meier test. RESULTS: Sample of 952 patients. At PC diagnosis median age 74 years. Median PSA at PC diagnosis 23 ng/ml, when begining ADT 20.2 ng/ml. 80.2% of patients were biopsied at PC diagnosis: 28.2% Gleason score group 1, 38.7% groups 2 and 3 and 33.1% groups 4 and 5. Initial treatment of PC: 75.9% ADT, radical prostatectomy 8.4% and radiotherapy 15.1%. Of the 952 patients, 281 (29.6%) fulfilled CRPC criteria. In this group 21.7% achieved undetectable PSA (< 0.1 ng/ml) with ADT compared to the non-CRPC group in which it was 59.9%. Increased probability of progression to CRPC in: PSA >30ng/ml at PC diagnosis (p = 0.000, OR 2.78), Gleason score group 4-5 (p = 0.000, OR 2.33), and not to reach undetectable PSA after ADT (p < 0.001, OR 3.32). The initial ADT group presents progression to metastatic CRPC more rapidly in unfavourable histology and when not reached undetectable PSA after ADT. CONCLUSIONS: We present a sample of patients with advanced PC in treatment with ADT that shows heterogeneity in usual clinical practice. In our sample, elevated PSA at PC diagnosis, unfavorable histology and failure to achieve a PSA <0.1ng/ml after ADT is presented as an indicator of progression to the CRPC stage
