RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The growing geriatric population has specific medical characteristics that should be taken into account especially in trauma setting. There is little evidence on management of abdominal trauma in the elderly and this article compares the management and outcomes of younger and older patients in order to highlight fields of improvement. METHOD: We conducted a retrospective database analysis from two European university hospitals selecting patients admitted for abdominal injury and extracted the following data: epidemiological data, mechanisms of the trauma, vital signs, blood tests, injuries, applied treatments, trauma scores and outcomes. We compared to different age group (16-64 and 65+ years old) using uni- and multivariable analysis. RESULTS: 1181 patients were included for statistical analysis. The main mechanisms of injury in both group were traffic accidents and in the elderly group, falls were more frequent. Both had similar Abbreviated Injury Score except for the thoracic injuries, which was higher in the elderly group. We reported a death rate of 13% in the elderly group and 7% in the younger group. However, multivariable analysis did not report age as an independent predictor of mortality. The management including surgery, blood transfusion and need for intensive care were similar in both groups. CONCLUSION: Although elderly patients suffering abdominal trauma have an almost two fold higher mortality, their management is quite similar leading to an important point of improvement in regards to triage and lower threshold for more aggressive management and surveillance. Age itself does not seem to be a reliable predictor of mortality. Introducing a frailty score when taking care of elderly trauma patients could improve the outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Over the past thirty years, there has been a major shift in the management of liver trauma. Contained hepatic vascular injuries (CHVI), including pseudoaneurysms and arteriovenous fistulas, are often feared because of the risk of secondary hemorrhage. However, little is known about CHVI. There are no guidelines for their management. Our aim was to validate the risk factors for CHVI, to identify the associated morbidities, and to establish a management protocol. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective study of 318 liver trauma cases from a level 1 trauma center over the past 15 years, comparing the presence or absence of CHVI. Univariable and multivariable analyses were conducted. Treatment used to manage CHVI was also compared. RESULTS: Liver trauma with the following characteristics, A.A.S.T. grade ≥III, bilateral injuries, and laceration-type lesions, were associated with a higher risk of CHVI. Grade A.A.S.T. ≥III and bilateral injuries were confirmed in a multivariable study with odds ratios as high as 4.0 and 3.5, respectively. CHVI was associated with significantly more delayed bleeding and controlled computed tomography. After analyzing the non-interventional management of CHVI less than two centimeters, a management algorithm is proposed. CONCLUSIONS: This retrospective unicentric study and literature review provide additional insight into the patient profile at risk for developing CHVI, its associated morbidity, and its management.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: This study was performed to assess the risk factors for artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) explantation in a large multicenter cohort. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records for all 1,233 implantations of the AMS-800 AUS device in male nonneurological patients from 2005 to 2020 across 13 French centers. Patients with neurological conditions were excluded from the study. To identify factors associated with explantation-free survival, survival analysis was performed. Explantation was defined as the complete removal of the device, whereas revision referred to the replacement of the device or its components. RESULTS: The study included 1,107 patients, of whom 281 underwent AUS explantation. The median survival without explantation was 83 months. The leading causes of explantation were infection and erosion. Univariate analysis revealed several significant risk factors for explantation: age above 75 years (34.6% in the explanted group vs. 25.8% in the nonexplanted group, P=0.007), history of radiotherapy (43.5% vs. 31.3%, P=0.001), and anticoagulant use (15% vs. 8.6%, P<0.001). In logistic regression analysis, the only significant risk factor was previous radiotherapy (odds ratio [OR], 2.05; P<0.05). Cox proportional hazards analysis revealed 2 factors associated with earlier explantation: transcorporal cuff implantation (hazard ratio [HR], 2.67; P=0.01) and the annual caseload of the center (HR, 1.08; P=0.02). When specifically examining explantation due to erosion, radiotherapy was the sole factor significantly associated with the risk of erosion (OR, 2.47; P<0.05) as well as earlier erosion (HR, 1.90; P=0.039). CONCLUSION: In this series, conducted in a real-world setting across multiple centers with different volumes and levels of expertise, the median survival without AUS explantation was 83 months. This study confirms that radiotherapy represents the primary independent risk factor for AUS erosion in male nonneurological patients.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Video-assisted thoracoscopic segmentectomies have become the gold standard for the treatment of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer less than two centimeters. The main difficulty is the identification of intersegmental boundary lines which dictate postoperative morbidities. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study to compare the perioperative outcomes of patients who underwent minimally invasive segmentectomy using the traditional deflation-inflation method or the novel indocyanine green (ICG) technique. Using a prospectively maintained database, we performed a retrospective analysis of 197 consecutive anatomical segmentectomies, from 2020 to 2023. Clinical effectiveness, postoperative complications, and histological data were compared. RESULTS: A total of 73 (37%) patients had the inflation-deflation method and 124 (63%) had the intravenous ICG method. There were no significant differences in chest tube duration, prolonged air leak, postoperative complications, and postoperative hospital stays. Surgical margin width was also similar between the two groups. The multivariable analysis confirmed these results. Lastly, intravenous ICG brought no additional value in complex segmentectomies. CONCLUSION: This monocentric and retrospective analysis found no added value of the intravenous ICG on the perioperative results of minimally invasive segmentectomies. The place of this novel technique in the surgical armamentarium remains to be defined. Specific indications such as complex segmentectomy or patients with chronic pulmonary disease require further study.

INTRODUCTION: Artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) is the standard treatment for severe stress urinary incontinence in men. While the perineal access is considered the gold standard, some authors have proposed penoscrotal AUS in order to facilitate the procedure. The main objective of our study was to evaluate the duration of survival without revision surgery (SSRC) according to the surgical approach for primary implantation. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Data from 1179 patients implanted in France between 1991 and 2020 with an AMS 800 AUS were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 762 men were implanted perineally (VP) and 417 penoscrotally (VPS). RESULTS: Median follow-up was 20 vs. 25months respectively. The groups were equivalent overall, apart from the use of anticoagulants (11% VP vs. 6.3% VPS P=0.014). In our population, 54% patients were considered as "dry" in the case of VPS vs. 42% for VP. There was no significant difference in terms of survival time without reoperation, revision, replacement or explantation. In univariate and multivariate analysis, age over 70years was predictive of more reinterventions, whereas the use of a 4.5cm cuff was protective, with hazard ratios of 1.42 (P=0.001) and 0.78 (P=0.04), respectively. CONCLUSION: The penoscrotal approach does not appear to be associated with more complications, has good functional results and no significant difference in reoperation-free survival. A prospective multicenter non-inferiority study could be of interest to confirm our findings.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effectiveness of percutaneous lumbar discectomy (PLD) under computed tomography (CT) guidance on pain and functional capacities and to estimate the speed of recovery by assessing the time to return to work. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients treated with PLD were prospectively included between December 2019 and April 2021. Data regarding pain, duration of symptoms, analgesia intakes, time of absence from work, and the Oswestry disability index (ODI) were collected. Patients were followed-up during 6 months. Duration of hospitalization and time to return to work were reported. The Fisher test was used to compare nominal variables, the Kruskal-Wallis test to compare ordinal variables, and the Student t test to compare quantitative continuous variables. RESULTS: A total of 87 patients were evaluated (median age, 56 years; interquartile range [IQR], 43-66 years). The median ODI decreased from 44 (IQR, 33-53) to 7 (IQR, 2-17) at 6 months (P < .001). The median visual analog scale score decreased from 8 (IQR, 8-9) to 2 (IQR, 0-3) within 6 months (P < .001). In total, 96.5% of patients were discharged on the day of the procedure, and 3.5% were discharged on the following day. No severe adverse events were reported according to the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) classification system. Of the 57 patients previously employed, 50 were able to return to work during the follow-up, with a median time of 8 days (IQR, 0-20 days). CONCLUSIONS: Symptomatic lumbar disc herniation can be successfully treated using PLD, resulting in significant improvement in symptoms and functional capacities and a fast return to work.

PURPOSE: Persistence or recurrence of stress urinary incontinence (prSUI) after artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) implantation may be secondary to non-mechanical failure (NOMECA). It have for long been assumed to result from urethral atrophy. Its existence is now debated. As the pathophysiology of NOMECA is not elucidated, the most appropriate management remains unclear. We aimed to compare the several revision techniques for NOMECA of AUS in men. METHODS: NOMECA was defined as prSUI, with normally functioning device, no erosion, infection or fluid loss. Exclusion criteria were neurogenic SUI, revision or explantation for other causes. From 1991 to 2022, 143 AUS revisions for NOMECA, including 99 cuff DOWNSIZING, 10 cuff repositioning (RELOC), 13 TANDEM-CUFF placement, 18 cuff changing (CHANGE), three increasing balloon pressure (BALLOON-UP), were performed in 10 centers. BALLOON-UP patients weren't included in comparative analysis due to small sample size. All components could be changed during the revision. Patients were also categorized in COMPLETE-CHANGE vs. PARTIAL-CHANGE of the device. RESULTS: The three-months complete continence rate was 70.8% with a significant difference between RELOC and DOWNSIZING groups (p = 0.04). COMPLETE CHANGE was significantly associated with complete continence status at three months in multivariate analysis (83.3% vs. 63.3%, OR = 2.7; CI 95% [1.1-7.1], p = 0.03). Estimated five-year reoperation-free and explantation-free survival were respectively 63.4% and 75.9% (p = 0.16; p = 0.30). Those were significantly longer in COMPLETE-CHANGE vs PARTIAL-CHANGE (82.2% vs. 69.6%, p = 0.03); (71.2% vs. 58.2%, p = 0.047). CONCLUSIONS: AUS revision for prSUI due to NOMECA yields satisfactory outcomes regardless of the technique used. We observed better functional outcomes when repositioning the new cuff. COMPLETE-CHANGE may improve functional outcomes, explantation-free and reoperation-free survivals.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate genomic risk of patients with persistent prostate specific antigen (PSA) using mRNA expression analysis and a validated prognostic genomic-risk classifier. METHODS: Monocentric retrospective study including all patients who underwent radical prostatectomy (RP) by one surgeon and Decipher Test from October 2013 to December 2018. PSA persistent population was defined as all patients with two consecutive PSA>0.1 ng/mL at follow-up after the surgery. Neurovascular Structure-adjacent Frozen-section Examination (NeuroSAFE) was performed intraoperatively for research of positive surgical margins. Multivariate analysis was performed for persistent PSA (pPSA) predictors. A specific localized, organ-confined, and negative margins sub-population with PSA persistence was compared to a similar sub-population without PSA persistence for genomic differential expression analyses. RESULTS: A total of 564 patients were included and 61 of them had pPSA. Preoperative PSA was higher in the PSA persistent group (11.6 [6.4, 21.2] vs. 6.2 [4.7, 9.2] P=0.00010), as well as PSA density (PSAd) (0.3 [0.2, 0.5] vs. 0.2 [0.1, 0.3] P=0.0001). Postoperative characteristics, Gleason Score, and positive surgical margins were significantly higher in the PSA persistent population. 31 patients had pPSA in our specific subpopulation and were compared to 217 patients with no pPSA. On multivariate analysis, only Decipher Score (OR=5.64 [1.28; 24.89], P=0.022) and preoperative PSA (OR=1.06, [1.02; 1.09], P=0.001) were significant predictors for PSA persistence. We found two genes to be significantly upregulated with a 2.5-fold change in our specific subpopulation (SERPINB11 and PDE11A). CONCLUSIONS: We found unique genomic features of patients with pPSA, whilst confirming previous clinical findings that this condition behaves to a worse prognosis. Given this high genomic risk, further imaging studies should be performed to select patients for early treatment intensification.

Background: Artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) is a gold standard treatment in male stress urinary incontinence but remains poorly used in elderly patients. Objective: To assess the efficacy, safety, and reoperation-free survival of AUS implantation in male patients over 75 yr of age. Design setting and participants: We retrospectively reviewed the charts of all 1233 non-neurological male AUS implantations between 2005 and 2020 at 13 French centers. We compared 330 patients ≥75 yr old (GROUP75+) with 903 patients <75 yr old (GROUP75-) at the time of AUS implantation. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis: Our primary endpoint was social continence at 3 mo defined as the use of one or fewer pad daily. We used Kaplan-Meier analyses to assess reoperation-free survival. We sought factors of erosion using logistic regression. Results and limitations: Early postoperative continence was comparable in both groups (74.4% vs 80.1%, p = 0.114). We observed a higher rate of postoperative complications in GROUP75+ (18.8% vs 12.6%, p = 0.014), but the complications were more frequently of low grade in GROUP75+ (p = 0.025). The overall reoperation-free survival was similar (p = 0.076) after a median follow-up of 2 yr. However, patients in GROUP75+ had poorer explantation-free survival (p < 0.0001). A history of radiotherapy was a predictive factor of erosion (odds ratio [OR] = 5.31, p < 0.01), but age was not (OR = 1.08, p = 0.87). Unfortunately, our dataset did not include a systematic geriatric evaluation. Conclusions: AUS in elderly patients appears to be an effective option to treat stress urinary incontinence. However, we observed more postoperative complications and explantations, although age was not associated with the onset of erosion. A prospective study is required to determine whether a geriatric evaluation would be an effective strategy to select patients before surgery. Patient summary: In this study, we looked at outcomes of artificial urinary sphincter in elderly men in a large population. We found satisfying efficacy but slightly more postoperative complications and device infections.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Almost two decades after the description of robotic vesicovaginal fistula repair (R-VVF), the literature remains limited. The aims of this study are to report the outcomes of R-VVF and to compare the transvesical versus extravesical techniques. METHODS: We performed an observational, retrospective, multicenter study, including all patients who underwent R-VVF from March 2017 to September 2021 at four academic institutions. All abdominal VVF repair over the study period were performed using a robotic approach. The success of R-VVF was defined as the absence of clinical recurrence. The outcomes of the extravesical versus transvesical techniques were compared. RESULTS: Twenty-two patients were included. The median age was 43 years old (IQR 38-50). Fistulas were supratrigonal and trigonal in 18 and 4 cases respectively. Five patients had undergone previous attempts of fistula repair (22.7%). The fistulous tract was systematically excised, and an interposition flap was used in all but two cases (90.9%). The transvesical and extravesical techniques were used in 13 and 9 cases respectively. There were four postoperative complications, three minor and one major. None of the patients had vesicovaginal fistula recurrence after a median follow-up of 15 months. CONCLUSIONS: The present series, one of the largest R-VVF reported to date, is consistent with the few series already published with a 100% cure rate. Systematic excision of the fistulous tract and the high rate of flap interposition may explain the high success rate. The transvesical and extravesical approaches yielded similar outcomes.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To analyze de novo graft carcinoma characteristics from our updated national multicentric retrospective cohort. METHODS: Thirty-two transplant centers have retrospectively completed the database. This database concerns all kidney graft tumors including urothelial, and others type but excludes renal lymphomas over 31 years. RESULTS: One hundred and fifty twokidney graft carcinomas were diagnosed in functional grafts. Among them 130 tumors were Renal Cell Carcinomas. The calculated incidence was 0.18%. Median age of the allograft at diagnosis was 45.4 years old. The median time between transplantation and diagnosis was 147.1 months. 60 tumors were papillary carcinomas and 64 were clear cell carcinomas. Median tumor size was 25 mm. 18, 64, 21 and 1 tumors were respectively Fuhrman grade 1, 2, 3 and 4. Nephron sparing surgery (NSS) was performed on 68 (52.3%) recipients. Ablative therapy was performed in 23 cases (17.7%). Specific survival rate was 96.8%. CONCLUSION: This study confirmed that renal graft carcinomas are a different entity: with a younger age of diagnosis; a lower stage at diagnosis; a higher incidence of papillary subtypes.

PURPOSE: To compare off-clamp vs on-clamp robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in terms of oncological outcomes, and to assess the impact of surgical experience (SE). METHODS: We extracted data of a contemporary cohort of 1359 patients from the prospectively maintained database of the French national network of research on kidney cancer (UROCCR). The primary objective was to assess the positive surgical margin (PSM) rate. We also evaluated the oncological outcomes regardless of the surgical experience (SE) by dividing patients into three groups of SE as a secondary endpoints. SE was defined by the caseload of RPN per surgeon per year. For the continuous variables, we used Mann-Whitney and Student tests. We assessed survival analysis according to hilar control approach by Kaplan-Meier curves with log rank tests. A logistic regression multivariate analysis was used to evaluate the independent factors of PSM. RESULTS: Outcomes of 224 off-clamp RPN for RCC were compared to 1135 on-clamp RPN. PSM rate was not statistically different, with 5.6% in the off-clamp group, and 11% in the on-clamp group (p = 0.1). When assessing survival analysis for overall survival (OS), local recurrence-free survival (LR), and metastasis-free survival (MFS) according to hilar clamping approach, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups with p value log rank = 0.2, 0.8, 0.1, respectively. In multivariate analysis assessing SE, hilar control approach, hospital volume (HV), RENAL score, gender, Age, ECOG, EBL, BMI, and indication of NSS, age at surgery was associated with PSM (odds ratio [OR] 1.03 (95% CI 1.00-1.04), 0.02), whereas SE, HV, and type of hilar control approach were not predictive factors of PSM. CONCLUSION: Hilar control approach seems to have no impact on PSM of RPN for RCC. Our findings were consistent with randomized trials.

The oncological impact of positive surgical margins (PSM) after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is still under debate. We compared PSM and Negative Surgical Margins (NSM) in terms of recurrence-free survival (RFS), metastasis-free survival (MFS) and overall survival (OS) after RAPN, and we identified predictive factors of PSM. Multi-institutional study using the UroCCR database, which prospectively included 2166 RAPN between April 2010 and February 2021 (CNIL DR 2013-206; NCT03293563). Two groups were retrospectively compared: PSM versus NSM. Prognostic factors were assessed using Kaplan-Meyer curves with log-Rank test, cox hazard proportional risk model and logistic regression after univariate comparison. 136 patients had PSM (6.3%) and 2030 (93.7%) had NSM. During a median follow-up of 19 (9-36) months after RAPN, 160 (7.4%) recurrences were reported. Kaplan-Meier curves and analysis suggested that RFS, MFS and OS were not affected by a PSM (p = 0.68; 0.71; 0.88, respectively). In multivariate analysis predictors of PSM were a lower RENAL score (p = 0.001), longer warm ischemia time (WIT) (p = 0.003) and Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma (chrRCC) (p = 0.043). This study found no impact of PSM on RFS, MFS or OS, and predictors of PSM were the RENAL score, WIT and chrRCC.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: No recommendation regarding antibiotic prophylaxis and preparation modalities are available for patients with esophageal motor disorders who benefit from Per-Oral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM). The aim of our study was to evaluate their impact on the POEM's safety. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This study was a comparative and multicentric retrospective analysis of a database prospectively collected. Patients over 18 years old with esophageal motor disorders confirmed by prior manometry, who underwent POEM were included. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of adverse events, as classified by Cotton, based on whether or not antibiotic prophylaxis was administered. RESULTS: A total of 226 patients (median age 52.9 ± 19.12 years [18-105], 116 women [51.3%]) were included. The indication for POEM was mainly type 2 achalasia (n = 135, 60.3%). Antibiotic prophylaxis was administered to 170 patients (75.2%) during 3.93 ± 3.46 days [1-21]. The overall adverse events rate was 9.3% (n = 21). Antibiotic prophylaxis was associated with the occurrence of adverse events (p = .003), but had no impact on their severity (p = .238). Antibiotic prophylaxis didn't influence the effectiveness of POEM (1 [0-4] vs 1 [0-9], p = .231). The use of a liquid diet in the 48 h prior to the procedure was significantly associated with a lower adverse events rate (3.1% vs 6.19%, p = .0002). CONCLUSION: The antibiotic prophylaxis during POEM does not prevent adverse events, had no impact on their severity and the efficacy of the procedure. A liquid diet before the procedure should be systematically proposed.

BACKGROUND: The results of 12 h nighttime Cheneau-Toulouse-Munster (CTM) brace wear on adolescent idiopathic scoliosis are poorly described. OBJECTIVE: The main objective was to analyze the efficiency of 12 h nighttime CTM brace wear on adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The secondary objective was to identify the factors influencing good results. METHODS: One hundred and fifty consecutive patients treated between 2006 and 2017 were retrospectively analyzed with subgroup analysis for the main curve pattern (main thoracic or main lumbar). The inclusion criteria were evolutive scoliosis, 12 h nighttime CTM brace wear, Risser stages 0-1-2 at the time of the prescription, and Cobb angle below 45 degrees. Success was defined as no surgery, and the main curve Cobb angle (CA) progression ≤5°. The overcurve was defined as the proximal thoracic curve above the main thoracic and mid-thoracic above the main lumbar curves. A logistic regression model was built to assess the predictors of success. RESULTS: Overall success was 70%: 60% for main thoracic (MT) and 84% for main lumbar scoliosis (ML) (p = 0.003). Efficacy was 62% at Risser stage 0 and 78% at Risser stage 1-2 (p = 0.054). For MT, failure was associated with high in-brace sagittal C7 tilt (Odds Ratio = 0.72, p = 0.014) and low initial overcurve CA (Odds Ratio = 0.42, p = 0.044). For ML, a high standing height was associated with success (OR = 1.42, p = 0.035), and frontal unbalanced C7 tilt was associated with failure (OR = 0.43, p = 0.02). CONCLUSION: Twelve-hour nighttime CTM brace wear provided good results for main lumbar curves with balanced frontal C7 tilt. For MT, this treatment is indicated if the in-brace sagittal C7 tilt is well balanced from Risser stage 2.
RESUMO
AIM: The aim of the study was to determine the preoperative predictive factors of overall survival, relapse-free survival, and peritoneal carcinomatosis in obstructive colorectal cancer. METHODS: Data from patients undergoing emergency surgery for obstructive colorectal cancer at our center between 2004 and 2016 were extracted retrospectively from our health records. Several preoperative parameters were used to predict survival and peritoneal carcinomatosis using univariate and multivariate analysis, and ROC curves. RESULTS: A total of 107 patients with obstructive colorectal cancer were included. Five-year relapse-free and overall survival rates were 14% and 28%, respectively, with 15% peritoneal carcinomatosis. Univariate analysis showed that age ≥ 83 years old, preoperative ASA score ≥ 3, initial hemodynamic instability, and CRP > 18.3 mg/L was significantly associated with worse relapse-free and overall survival. In a multivariate analysis, only age > 83 years (HR = 1.75; HR = 2.16, for relapse-free and overall survival status, respectively) and hemodynamic instability (HR = 7.29; HR = 6.55) were confirmed in the multivariate model. Global peritoneal carcinomatosis was significantly associated with synchronous liver metastases in the multivariate model (OR = 4.56), and synchronous peritoneal carcinomatosis only was significantly associated with platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) > 269 and synchronous liver metastases in the multivariate model (OR = 0.003; OR = 7.26). CONCLUSION: Synchronous liver metastases are prognostic risk factor for global and synchronous peritoneal carcinomatosis whereas PLR > 269 was a significant protective factor for synchronous peritoneal carcinomatosis only for obstructive colorectal cancer. Age > 83 years and initial hemodynamic instability were key preoperative prognostic risk factors for worse relapse-free and overall survival. Prognostic usefulness of blood cell ratios for mortality and peritoneal carcinomatosis warrants further investigation.

AIMS: To evaluate the impact of an history of radiation therapy on the outcomes of artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) implantation in male patients. METHODS: The charts of all patients who underwent AUS implantation for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after prostate surgery in thirteen centers between 2004 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. We excluded patients with neurogenic SUI. Continence rates and incidence of complications, revision and cuff erosion were evaluated. The outcomes in irradiated men were compared to those of non irradiated men. RESULTS: A total of 1277 patients who had an AUS met the inclusion criteria with a median age of 70 years, of which 437 had an history of prior radiotherapy. There was no difference in comorbidities. In irradiated patients, postoperative social continence, urethral atrophy and infection rates were respectively 75.6%, 2.4% and 9.5% and 76.8%, 5.4%, and 5.8% in nonirradiated men (respectively, p = 0.799, p = 0.128, p = 0.148). There were more urethral erosion in irradiated male patients. After a mean follow up of 36.8 months, the explantation free survival was poorer in irradiated patients (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION: These data suggest that pelvic radiotherapy before AUS adversely affect device survival with and increased greater occurrence of infection-erosion and therefore of explantation.

INTRODUCTION: Various surgical centers tend to postpone a kidney transplantation (KT) to the following morning than to operate at night-time. The objective of our study was to assess whether there was any difference between daytime and night-time renal transplantation in our institution. METHOD: This study is a retrospective monocentric study including all the KTs that were performed between 2012 and 2013 by transplant expert surgeons in our institution. Clavien-Dindo (CD) complications were classified according to 7 variables going from 1 to 5. Time before postgraft diuresis and delayed graft function (DGF) were also analyzed. Two groups of patients were formed according to threshold value of incision time (6.30 p.m.). Data comparison were performed using the Kruskal-Wallis nonparametric test. RESULTS: A total of 179 patients were included. Median follow-up was 24 months. Cold ischemia time was longer in the night-time transplantation (1082 vs. 807 min, p < .001), but rewarming time was shorter (47.24 vs. 52.15 min, p = .628). No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups using the Kruskal-Wallis method for CD complications (Qobs: 0.076; p = .735). CD complications proportion was similar, with a majority of grade II complications (72.7% daytime group vs. 75.4% night-time group (p = .735). DGF (19 patients for daytime group vs. 13 patients for night-time group, p = .359) and time before postgraft diuresis (4.65 days daytime group vs. 5.27 days night-time group, p = .422) were similar between both groups. Multivariate analysis did not show significant predictors of CD complications Grade 3 and more. CONCLUSION: Night-time renal transplantation did not induce more postoperative CD complications than diurnal procedures in our cohort, challenging the false preconceptions that allow surgical teams to delay this surgery.

BACKGROUND: Artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) is the gold standard for the management of moderate to severe stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in the male population. While outcomes of this device in postprostatectomy incontinence (PPI) are widely described, those obtained for incontinence after benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) surgery remains poorly explored. OBJECTIVE: To compare continence outcomes after AUS implantation in a PPI population with those obtained in men incontinent after BPO surgery. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: A retrospective review of all cases of AUS implantation between 2005 and 2020 in 16 different French centers was conducted. Only patients with primary implantation whose indication was moderate to severe SUI after prostatectomy or BPO surgery were included (excluding those with a history of radiation therapy, brachytherapy, cystectomy, high-intensity focused ultrasound therapy, or neurogenic disease). OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: The primary endpoint was the rate of social continence (zero or one pad per day) at 3 mo. Complications were also noted within 90 d of implantation. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: A total of 417 patients were included in the PPI group and 50 in the BPO surgery group. Social continence rates at 3 mo were similar between the groups (79% vs 72%, p = 0.701). Complication rate was significantly higher in the BPO group (8% vs 18%, p = 0.044). The same was found for the Clavien-Dindo type 2 complication rate (20.6% vs 44.4%, p = 0.026). The retrospective nature and lack of precise definition of incontinence are the main limitations of this study. CONCLUSIONS: This multicentric study strengthens the position of AUS as gold standard for SUI after radical prostatectomy. Comparable efficacy results were found for incontinence after BPO surgery, with nevertheless a higher rate of complications. PATIENT SUMMARY: Artificial urinary sphincter represents the gold standard for the treatment of moderate to severe stress urinary incontinence. Efficacy results are comparable between postprostatectomy incontinence and incontinence after benign prostatic obstruction surgery.
