RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Renal artery pseudoaneurysm following partial nephrectomy is a rare entity, the incidence of this entity is more common following penetrating abdominal injuries, percutaneous renal interventions such as percutaneous nephrostomy(PCN) or Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Although rare, renal artery pseudoaneurysm can be life threatening if not managed timely, they usually present within two weeks postoperatively with usual presenting complains being gross haematuria, flank pain and/or anaemia. CASE PRESENTATION: We report case of two female patients 34 and 57 year old respectively of South Asian ethnicity, presenting with renal artery pseudoaneurysm following left sided robot assisted nephron sparing surgery for interpolar masses presenting clinically with total, painless, gross haematuria with clots within fifteen days postoperatively and their successful treatment by digital subtraction angiography and coil embolization. CONCLUSION: Renal artery aneurysm is a rare fatal complication of minimally invasive nephron sparing surgery however considering the preoperative and intraoperative risk factors for its development and prompt suspicion at the outset can be life saving with coil embolization of the bleeding arterial aneurysm.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the urodynamic outcomes of transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) in patients of benign prostatic enlargement (BPE) with upper urinary tract dilatation and correlate with International Prostate Symptoms Score (I-PSS). METHODS: In this prospective study, patients of BPE with upper urinary tract dilatation from July 2017 to June 2019 were enrolled. At presentation, detailed I-PSS, ultrasonography abdomen, serum creatinine, and serum PSA were recorded. All the patients were catheterized and observed for postobstructive diuresis. At 4 weeks, repeat ultrasound and serum creatinine were recorded. Urodynamic study (UDS) was performed after ensuring sterile urine culture. Patients underwent TURP as per the standard technique. A repeat UDS was performed after 3 months, and analysis was done. RESULTS: Forty-four patients were enrolled of which data of 37 patients were analyzed. In the filling phase of the UDS, there was a significant decrease in detrusor pressure at the end filling phase from 27 to 9.0 cm H2O after TURP. Maximum cystometric capacity and bladder compliance significantly improved at 3 months following surgery. In the voiding phase, peak flow rate showed a significant increase, postvoid residual urine volume significantly decreased, and peak detrusor pressure marginally decreased following TURP. The I-PSS decreased from 20 ± 8 to 5 ± 6 following TURP. CONCLUSION: High detrusor pressure and reduced compliance is a risk factor for upper urinary tract dilatation. Changes in the bladder dynamics and resolution of hydronephrosis following TURP reflected in the changes in urodynamic parameters and I-PSS.

PURPOSE: Buccal mucosa graft (BMG) is long used as favoured substitute by most reconstructive surgeons for substitution urethroplasty (SU). Though inner preputial skin graft (IPG) was described even earlier than BMG, its usage lately has fallen out of favour. The aim of the study was to evaluate the outcome of a SU with IPG from a tertiary care centre. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of prospectively maintained clinical data was conducted at our tertiary care centre enrolling 80 patients with anterior urethral stricture from January 2015 to January 2018. Patients were evaluated for the aetiology, length and site of the urethral stricture. All patients underwent dorsolateral SU with IPG. Post-operative assessment including uroflowmetry and sexual outcomes using IIEF and MSHQ-EJD questionnaires was done at 3 weeks, 3 months, 12 months and half-yearly thereafter. Success was defined by the stable maximum urinary flow value > 14 ml/s or urethral calibration with 16 French Foley catheter. RESULTS: Mean age of patients was 40 years (18-69). The most common aetiology was post-instrumentation (65%) and 60% had stricture at penobulbar site. Mean stricture length was 65 mm. At a mean follow-up of 48 months (range 30-66 months), successful outcomes were seen in 69/80 (87%). Patients with failure were managed with optical internal urethrotomy (OIU). Uroflowmetry and obstructive symptoms significantly improved and sexual function remained unaffected using IPG for SU. CONCLUSIONS: Preputial graft is a tissue familiar to the urologist, located very close to the surgical field, easily harvested and operated under regional anaesthesia. Overall success outcomes are acceptable to BMG urethroplasty.
