A proposed mathematical model to help preoperative planning between RIRS and MiniPerc for renal stones between 10 and 20 mm using holmium:Yag laser (Cyber Ho): the stone management according to size-hardness (SMASH) score.

To evaluate the performance of a mathematical model to drive preoperative planning between RIRS and MiniPerc (MP) for the treatment of renal stones between 10 and 20 mm. Patients with a renal stone between 10 and 20 mm were enrolled. A mathematical model named Stone Management According to Size-Hardness (SMASH) score was calculated: hounsfield units (HU) χ stone maximum size (cm)/100. Patients were divided into 4 groups: RIRS with score < 15 (Group A), RIRS with score ≥ 15 (Group B), MP with score < 15 (Group C), MP with score ≥ 15 (Group D). Cyber Ho device was always used. Stone free rate (SFR) was assessed after 3 months. Complication rate and need for auxiliary procedures were evaluated. Between January 2019 and December 2021, 350 patients were enrolled (87, 88, 82 and 93 in Groups A, B, C and D). Mean stone size was 13.1 vs 13.3 mm in Group A vs B (p = 0.18) and 16.2 vs 18.1 mm in Group C vs D (p = 0.12). SFR was 82%, 61%, 75% and 85% for Groups A, B, C and D. SFR was comparable between Groups C and D (p = 0.32) and Groups A and C (p = 0.22). SFR was significantly higher in Group A over B (p = 0.03) and in Group D over B (p = 0.02). Complication rate was 2.2%, 3.4%, 12.1%, 12.9% for Groups A, B, C, D. RIRS and MP are both safe and effective. The mathematical model with the proposed cut-off allowed a proper allocation of patients between endoscopic and percutaneous approaches.Registration number of the study ISRCTN55546280.

[Infections and male infertility]. / Infections et infertilité masculine.

BACKGROUND: The role of urogenital infections in male infertility has long been the subject of debate. METHODS: A bibliographic search limited to English-language literature on human subjects published before 5/2023 resulted in the selection of 189 articles. RESULTS: Male infertility is often of multifactorial aetiology, and to optimise the prognosis it is important to manage all the factors that can be corrected, including infectious causes, which represent one of the most frequent aetiologies. The infectious agents involved in urogenital infections are most often bacterial or viral, and more rarely parasitic. They can infect the seminal tract, male accessory glands and/or testicles, and usually result in inflammation and increased oxidative stress. These infections reduce male fertility, in particular by altering spermogram parameters and increasing sperm DNA fragmentation. For these reasons, the search for a urogenital infection should be systematic, involving a careful history and clinical examination, ultrasound and systematic bacteriological tests guided by clinical findings. Aetiological treatment may be proposed depending on the picture and the germ involved. CONCLUSION: This review should help the urologist to establish an accurate diagnosis of the form and extent of the infection, and enable him to define an appropriate therapeutic strategy, tailored to the patient, in order to obtain the best chances of improving male fertility.

Pulsed-wave vs Continuous-wave Thulium Fiber Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (ThuFLEP): A Comparison of Perioperative Outcomes.

OBJECTIVE: To compare intra and early postoperative outcomes between pulsed-wave and continuous-wave Thulium Fiber Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (PW-ThuFLEP vs CW-ThuFLEP) for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. METHODS: 238 patients with lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia underwent PW-ThuFLEP (118 patients) vs CW-ThuFLEP (120 patients). Preoperative prostate volume, adenoma volume, prostate-specific antigen (PSA), and hemoglobin values were recorded. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), maximum flow rate (Qmax), post-void residual volume, and International Index of Erectile Function-5 score (IIEF-5) were assessed. Operative time, enucleation time, enucleation efficiency, catheterization time, irrigation volume, hospital stay, hemoglobin drop, and postoperative complications were recorded. Micturition improvements and sexual outcomes were evaluated 3months after surgery. RESULTS: CW-ThuFLEP showed shorter operative time (61.5 vs 67.4 minutes, P = .04). Enucleation time (50.2 vs 53.3 minutes, P = .12), enucleation efficiency (0.8 vs 0.7 g/min, P = .38), catheterization time (2.2 vs 2.1days, P = .29), irrigation volume (32.9 vs 32.8L, P = .71), hospital stay (2.8 vs 2.6days, P = .29) and hemoglobin drop (0.38 vs 0.39 g/dL, P = .53) were comparable. No significant difference in complication rate was observed. At 3-month follow-up, the procedures did not show any significant difference in IPSS, Qmax, post-void residual volume, IIEF-5, and PSA value. CONCLUSION: PW-ThuFLEP and CW-ThuFLEP both relieve lower urinary tract symptoms equally, with high efficacy and safety. Operative time was significantly shorter with CW-ThuFLEP, but with a small difference with low clinical impact. Enucleation time, enucleation efficiency, catheterization time, irrigation volume, hospital stay, hemoglobin and PSA drop, complication rate, and sexual outcomes showed no differences.

Long term outcome of multidisciplinary management of urethro-rectal fistula after urologic surgery.

Urethro-rectal fistula (URF) is a rare but serious condition whose treatment is poorly codified. This study aims to evaluate the short and long-term results of multidisciplinary management. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively collected the records of patients with URF operated on at the University Hospital of Tours between January 1, 2000 and January 1, 2020. Short-term and long-term results according to management are reported. RESULTS: The study included 20 patients. As an initial gesture, 11 patients underwent bladder catheterization and colostomy, seven underwent bladder catheterization alone, one underwent graciloplasty, and one, a York Mason procedure. The success rate of initial conservative management was only 5% (1/20). As a secondary or tertiary intervention, ten patients underwent a York Mason procedure and nine underwent graciloplasty. At the end of the study period, with a median follow-up of 50 months, 19 had been effectively treated for URF, 16 were able to have colostomy closure with restoration of digestive continuity while four had a permanent stoma. One patient had anal incontinence, 14% had major stress urinary incontinence. CONCLUSION: Multidisciplinary care remains a cornerstone of the treatment of URF because iterative surgeries may be required, with an overall success rate of up to 95% at the end of follow-up.

Comparison of open and robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy approaches using multicentric data (UroCCR-47 study).

We compared the outcomes of robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RPN) and open partial nephrectomy (OPN) using contemporary data to respond to unmet clinical needs. Data from patients included in the registry who underwent partial nephrectomy between January 01, 2014 and June 30, 2017 within 20 centres of the French Network for Research on Kidney Cancer UroCCR were collected (NCT03293563). Statistical methods included adjusted multivariable analyses. Rates of peri- and post-operative transfusion, and of surgical revision, were lower in the RPN (n = 1434) than the OPN (n = 571) group (2.9% vs. 6.0%, p = 0.0012; 3.8% vs. 11.5%, p < 0.0001; 2.4% vs. 6.7%, p < 0.0001, respectively). In multivariable analyses, RPN was independently associated with fewer early post-operative complications than OPN (overall: odds-ratio [95% confidence interval, CI] = 0.48 [0.35-0.66]; severe: 0.29 [0.16-0.54], p < 0.0001 for both) and shorter hospital stays (34% [30%; 37%], p < 0.0001). RPN was also a significantly associated with a decresedrisk of post-operative acute renal failure, and new-onset chronic kidney disease at 3 and 12 months post-surgery. There were no between-group differences in oncological outcomes. In comparison with OPN, RPN was associated with improved peri- and post-operative morbidity, better functional outcomes, and shorter hospital stays. Our results support the use of RPN, even for large and complex tumours.

The volume and thickness of preprostatic fat on MRIs are not associated with prostate cancer aggressiveness in men undergoing radical prostatectomy.

PURPOSE: Periprostatic fat has a metabolic activity on the prostate via cytokines that act paracrine on several signaling pathways including tumorigenesis. We investigated whether there was an association between preprostatic fat abundance and prostate cancer (PCa) aggressiveness. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed a retrospective study including patients who underwent radical prostatectomy in our center from the prospective RESCAP database. Preoperative MRIs were re-read and different measurements of preprostatic fat (PPF) were performed. The maximum thickness (PPFmax) and the minimum thickness (PPFmin) were measured on a median T2 sagittal section. The total volume of preprostatic fat (PPFV) and volume normalized by prostate volume (NPPFV) were calculated semi-automatically by segmentation on continuous axial sections of 3mm. The association of these parameters with the aggressiveness criteria of PCa (ISUP 3-5 on biopsies and on operative specimen, intermediate or high-risk disease according to D'AMICO, PSA>10, upgrading risk at radical prostatectomy) was measured as well as the association between normal, overweight, and obese BMI classes and the aggressiveness criteria used. RESULTS: One hundred and twenty-one men were included in this study. In both the univariate analysis and the multivariate analysis, none of the preprostatic fat measurements (PPFmax, PPFmin, PPFV and NPPFV) were associated with PCa aggressiveness criteria. There was also no association between BMI class and tumor aggressiveness. CONCLUSION: In this study, there is no association between the abundance of preprostatic fat and PCa aggressiveness according to the periprostatic fat measurements achieved. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.

Economic evaluation of pre-operative shower with antiseptic soap to prevent surgical site infections.

BACKGROUND: A pre-operative shower is recommended before surgery to prevent surgical site infections (SSIs). METHODS: We modelled the occurrence of SSIs and the potential savings for patients undergoing an antimicrobial soap (AS) shower prior to surgery at a French University Hospital level. RESULTS: AS shower prevented 209 SSIs, generating a potential saving of €632,210 per year. Results grouped by type of surgery showed annual savings of €26,537, €20,520 and €14,377 for orthopaedic, gynaecologic and obstetric, and digestive surgery, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Despite the lack of published data surrounding the efficacy of AS in preventing SSIs, we demonstrated the potential savings and benefits of generalizing AS before surgical interventions.

[Guidelines from the cancer (CC-AFU) and infection disease (CI-AFU) committees of the French Association of Urology for the management of adverse events and complications of BCG]. / Recommandations des Comités de cancérologie (CC-AFU) et d'infectiologie (CI-AFU) de l'Association française d'urologie pour la prise en charge effets indésirables et complications du BCG.

INTRODUCTION: Intravesical instillations of BCG are recommended for the treatment of high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. However, their prolonged use remains limited by the associated potentially serious adverse effects or complications. The purpose of this article was to provide updated recommendations for the diagnosis and management of adverse events (AEs) or complications of intravesical BCG instillations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Review of the literature in Medline (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) and Embase (http://www.embase.com) using the following MeSH keywords or a combination of these keywords: "bladder," "BCG," "complication," "toxicity," "adverse events," "prevention," and "treatment". RESULTS: AEs or complications of BCG included genitourinary and systemic symptoms. The most common complications (cystitis, moderate fever) should be treated symptomatically and may require adjustment to allow patients to have the most complete BCG treatment possible. Serious complications are rare but must be identified promptly because of the life-threatening nature of the disease. Their management is based on the combination of anti-tuberculosis treatments, anti-inflammatory drugs and the definitive discontinuation of BCG. CONCLUSION: The management of BCG AEs requires early identification, rational and effective treatment if necessary, and discussion of the continuation of treatment for each situation.

[Artificial urinary sphincter in patients with urinary incontinence after High Intensity Focused ultrasound]. / Sphincter urinaire artificiel chez les patients présentant une incontinence urinaire après High Intensivity Focused Ultrasound Therapy.

INTRODUCTION: Urinary incontinence after High Intensity Focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a poorly documented issue. To our knowledge, no study has evaluated the outcomes of artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) after HIFU. The aim of this study was to evaluate the functional outcomes of AUS for post-HIFU urinary incontinence. METHODS: The charts of all male patients who underwent an AUS implantation between 2004 and 2020 in 13 centers were reviewed retrospectively. Only men with a history of HIFU were included. The primary endpoint was social continence at 3 months defined as wearing 0 to 1 pad per day. RESULTS: Out of 1318 procedures, nine men were implanted with an AUS after HIFU including four men with an history of pelvic irradiation: 3 pelvic radiation therapy and 1 prostatic brachytherapy. The patients were divided into two groups, 5 in the HIFU group without a history of pelvic irradiation, 4 patients in the HIRX group with a history of pelvic irradiation. The median age was 74 years (IQR 71-76). There was no perioperative complication. The median follow-up was 47.5 (IQR 25-85.5) months. Social continence at 3 months was 75% in the total cohort: 80% in the HIFU group and 67% in the HIRX group. CONCLUSION: AUS implantation may provide satisfactory long-term functional outcomes in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence resulting from HIFU. Larger series are needed to confirm these findings. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

Linguistic validation and cognitive assessment of the French version of the Acute Cystitis Symptom Score questionnaire.

INTRODUCTION: The Acute Cystitis Symptom Score (ACSS) questionnaire first developed in Russian and Uzbek languages and now available in many other languages can be used for clinical diagnostics and patient-reported outcome (PRO) in female patients with acute uncomplicated cystitis (AUC). The aim of the current study was the linguistic validation and cognitive assessment of the French version of the ACSS questionnaire according to internationally accepted guidelines. METHODS: After two forward translations from Russian into the French language and backward translation into Russian and Uzbek, the two original languages, the scientific committee (SC) performed a slightly adapted French version, which finally was cognitively assessed by female subjects with different ages and educational levels and medical professionals, such as nurses, physicians, and pharmacists. RESULTS: All comments of the female subjects and professionals were discussed within the SC and after slight, but necessary adaptations, the SC agreed on the final study version of the French ACSS. CONCLUSION: Now, the linguistically validated and cognitively assessed French version of the ACSS can be used for clinical studies and practice.

[Infectious emergencies in urology]. / Les urgences infectieuses en urologie.

OBJECTIVE: To report the nature, diagnosis and therapeutic strategy of infectious emergencies in urology. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Bibliographic research from Pubmed, Embase, and Google scholar in July 2021. A synthesis of the guidelines of national infectious diseases societies. RESULTS: Urosepsis and complicated urinary tract infection have a standardized definition. Diagnosis and therapeutic strategy are presented for upper tract urinary infection, male urinary infection, healthcare associated urinary infection, symptomatic canduria and urinary infections of the elderly. Appropriate antibiotherapy should be tailored to the degree of severity, bacterial ecosystem, patient characteristics et localization of the infection. CONCLUSION: Urinary infections can be critical and require immediate care. Knowledge of the guidelines and of appropriate diagnosis and therapeutics strategy improve care which should be rapidly applied, and collegial.

Multicenter external validation of the radical cystectomy pentafecta in a European cohort of patients undergoing robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion for bladder cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To perform an external validation of this RC-pentafecta. METHOD: Between January 2014 and December 2019, 104 consecutive patients who underwent RARC with ICUD within 6 urological centers were analyzed retrospectively. Patients who simultaneously demonstrated negative soft tissue surgical margins (STSMs), a lymph node (LN) yield ≥ 16, absence of major (Clavien-Dindo grade III-V) 90-day postoperative complications, absence of UD-related long-term sequelae, and absence of 12-month clinical recurrence were considered to have achieved RC-pentafecta. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to measure predictors for achieving RC-pentafecta. We analyzed the influence of this RC-pentafecta on survival, and the impact ofthe surgical experience. RESULTS: Since 2014, 104 patients who had completed at least 12 months of follow-up were included. Over a mean follow-up of 18 months, a LN yield ≥ 16, negative STSMs, absence of major complications at 90 days, and absence of UD-related surgical sequelae and clinical recurrence at ≤ 12 months were observed in 56%, 96%, 85%, 81%, and 91% of patients, respectively, resulting in a RC-pentafecta rate of 39.4%. Multivariate analysis showed that age was an independent predictor of pentafecta achievement (odds ratio [OR], 0.96; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.90. 0.99; p = 0.04). The surgeon experience had an impact on the validation of the criteria. CONCLUSION: This study confirmed that the RC-pentafecta is reproducible and could be externally used for the outcome assessment after RARC with ICUD. Therefore, the RC-pentafecta could be a useful tool to assess surgical success and its impact on different outcomes.

Recommendations of the AFU Infectious Diseases Committee on the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of infections of endo-ureteral equipment.

INTRODUCTION: No recent national guidelines exist regarding the management of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in the presence of ureteral stent. This situation could lead to discrepancies in clinical management and less opportunity for a favorable patient's outcome. METHODS: All available data published on Medline® between 1998 and 2018 were systematically searched and reviewed. All papers assessing adult patients carrying ureteral stent were included for analysis. After studies critical analysis, national guidelines for clinical management were elaborated in order to answer clinical questions. RESULTS: A total of 451 articles were identified, of which 58 have been included. The prevalence of urinary tract infections in the presence of ureteral stent remains unknown. After 3 months, all endo-ureteral devices were colonized on microbiological study. These patients also presented a positive urine culture in 25 to 70% of the cases, often polymicrobial. Staphylococci, E. coli, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas, Enterococcus and Candida were the commonest micro-organisms responsible for urinary colonization or infection. The risk of UTI on endo-ureteral devices seemed higher the longer it stayed implanted. There is no justification in the literature to recommend a systematic change of endo-ureteral devices following a urinary tract infection. DISCUSSION: The existing literature is rich but of poor methodological quality, and therefore does not allow to draw robust conclusions. The greatest difficulty faced in this work was to accurately differentiate urinary colonizations from true infections, including clinical symptoms and not only microbiological results. CONCLUSION: These guidelines propose a standardized management of such common clinical situations. Well-designed studies are needed to upgrade the level of evidence of these guidelines.

FUrTIHF: French urinary tract infections in healthcare facilities - five-year historic cohort (2014-2018).

BACKGROUND: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common and diverse. Even when not severe, UTIs regularly lead to hospitalization, but their hospital burden remains unknown. This study aimed to estimate the national incidence of hospitalized UTIs in France. METHODS: A historic five-year cohort of adult patients hospitalized with UTIs in France was extracted from the medico-administrative databases using an ICD-10 code algorithm built by a multidisciplinary team. The performance parameters were estimated blindly, by reviewing 1122 cases, using medical reports as the gold standard, giving a global predictive positive value of 70.4% (95% confidence interval 66.6-74.1). The national incidence of UTIs was then estimated. RESULTS: A total of 2,083,973 patients with UTIs were hospitalized over the period, giving an adjusted incidence rate of ∼900 cases/100,000 inhabitants, stable over the period, higher in females and increasing with age; 1.2% were device-associated UTIs. Unspecific acute cystitis represented almost two-thirds of cases (63.5%); followed by pyelonephritis (23.6%) and prostatitis (12.4%). More than three-quarters of patients had at least one comorbid condition (76.8%). CONCLUSIONS: This national cohort study is the first to date to estimate the incidence of UTI-related hospitalizations in France. UTIs represent a substantial burden of care. Further analysis will provide data for more informed goal-of-care discussions targeting each type of UTI, their management and outcomes.

[Acute renal failure of the donor in encephalic death: A real contraindication to kidney transplantation?] / L'insuffisance rénale aiguë du donneur en mort encéphalique : une réelle contre-indication à la transplantation rénale ?

INTRODUCTION: The shortage of kidney transplants encourages the expansion of the limits of eligibility criteria for donation. Many donors who are brain dead display acute renal failure at the time of death; is this a real contraindication to harvesting? The aim of this study was to assess kidney graft survival from donors after brain death with confirmed acute renal failure, with or without anuria previous donation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All of the transplants performed in two university hospitals between 2010 and 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. All patients who underwent single kidney transplant from a brain-dead donor with acute renal failure (ARF) were included in this study. ARI was defined here by a decrease over 50 % of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) to a threshold below 45mL/min/1.73 m2 at the time of kidney procurement. Kidney graft survival, incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) and the GFR at 12 months were analyzed. Analysis of kidney transplant survival based on pre-implantation biopsies was additionally done. RESULTS: One hundred and sixty four patients were transplanted with a kidney from donor with ARF during the selected period. At the admission in ICU the average GFR was 67,7±19mL/min/1,73m2. At the time of donation, the average age of donors was 56.4±17.7 years, the GFR was 33.7±8.0mL/min/1.73 m2 16 % of donors were anuric. Cold ischemia time (CIT) was 16.8±5.0hours. The average age of recipients was 55.6±14.1 years. 81 % of the cases were primary transplants. Graft function took place within 7.8±9.4 days after transplantation. There were two non-primary functions (PNF). One hundred and fifty two patients (93 %) had a functional graft at 12 months. The mean GFR at 12 months was 46.8±20.1mL/min/1.73 m2 and 122 patients (73 %) had a GFR greater than 30mL/min/1.73 m2. Seventy-one percent of preimplantation biopsies revealed acute tubular necrosis (ATU); no cortical necrosis was observed. Survival of theses grafts was 85 %, comparable to the total population of study (P=0,21) CONCLUSION: The acute renal failure of the brain-dead donor should not alone be systematically a contraindication to harvesting and kidney transplantation.

[Short recommendations from the CIAFU: Interest of the urine bacterial culture performed before endo-rectal prostate biopsy]. / Recommandations courtes du CIAFU : intérêt de l'ECBU avant biopsie de la prostate réalisée par voie endo-rectale.

Prostate biopsy is sometimes complicated by infection which can lead to death. The risk factors remain controversial, notably the urine bacterial culture carried out before a prostate biopsy. The increase in resistance induces an increase in the number of complications and the need to define new antibiotic prophylaxis strategies. The urine bacterial culture remains widely discussed in cases with post-prostate biopsy infections and urologists or experts await clear recommendations on this subject. The Infectiology Committee of the French Association of Urology has therefore set up a literature analysis work in order to reach a consensus within the committee. METHOD: A literature search was performed on Pubmed and Medline. We selected randomized studies or meta-analyzes using the keywords "prostate biopsy" and "infection" or "infectious complications". All abstracts and articles have been analyzed. The summary of the analysis was reviewed by all the members of the committee proposing the most consensual recommendation possible. RESULTS: The literature on the subject remains poor, but no evidence of a link between prebiopsy bacteriuria and post-biopsy infection has been demonstrated. CONCLUSIONS: Apart from a clinical situation which could evoke a male urinary tract infection, and moreover having to prefer the postponement of biopsies, it is not recommended to perform a routine urine culture before endo-rectal prostate biopsies (expert opinion).

Infectious complications of promontofixation, a systematic review of the literature.

INTRODUCTION: Surgery for genitourinary prolapse may be complicated, with postoperative infections. While promontofixation is recommended and widely used, the impact of postoperative infections has received little study. We consequently decided to review the literature to identify risk factors for infection. MATERIAL AND METHOD: We conducted a systematic review of the literature. PubMed, Medline and the Cochrane databases up until August 2019 were examined. The keywords were: "promontofixation", "colpopexy", "sacral colpopexy", "sacrocolpopexy". The primary outcome consisted in infectious complications. We also performed a meta-analysis using RevMan software. RESULTS: Fifty-two among 1624 articles were selected. Infectious complications following promontofixation are infrequent. While few factors have been definitively associated with the occurrence of postoperative infections, associated procedures such as rectopexia or hysterectomy increase the risk of the latter. However, type of approach does not seem to affect the rate of occurrence of infectious complications. CONCLUSION: This review of the literature underscores a lack of descriptive, statistical and therapeutic data on post-promontofixation infections, which are certainly underestimated. On the other hand, it helps to identify the association of certain factors with the occurrence of postoperative infections.

[French ccAFU guidelines - update 2020-2022: prostate cancer]. / Recommandations françaises du Comité de cancérologie de l'AFU ­ actualisation 2020­2022 : cancer de la prostate.

OBJECTIVE: - The purpose of the guidelines national committee ccAFU was to propose updated french guidelines for prostate cancer. METHODS: - A Medline search was achieved between 2018 and 2020, as regards diagnosis, options of treatment and follow-up of prostate cancer (PCA), and to evaluate the different references specifying their levels of evidence. RESULTS: - The guidelines outline the genetics, epidemiology and diagnosis of prostate cancer, as well as the concepts of screening and early detection. MRI, the gold standard imaging test for localized cancer, is indicated before prostate biopsies are performed. The therapeutic methods are detailed and indicated according to the clinical situation. Active surveillance is a reference therapeutic option for low-risk tumours with a low evolutionary risk. Early salvage radiotherapy is indicated in case of biological recurrence after radical prostatectomy. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) remains the backbone therapy in the metastatic stage. Docetaxel in combination with ADT improves overall first-line survival in synchronous metastatic prostate cancer. In this situation, the combination of ADT with abiraterone is also a standard of care regardless of tumor volume. Recent data indicate that ADT should be indicated with a new generation of hormone therapy (Apalutamide or Enzalutamide) in metastatic synchronous or metachronous patients, regardless of tumour volume. Local treatment of prostate cancer with radiotherapy improves survival in synchronous oligometastatic patients. Targeted treatment of metastases is being evaluated. In patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), new therapies that have emerged in recent years help to better control tumor progression and improve survival. CONCLUSION: - These updated french guidelines will contribute to increase the level of urological care for the diagnosis and treatment for prostate cancer.
