RESUMO
Systematic screening for prostate cancer is widely recommended in candidates for renal transplant at the time of listing. There are concerns that overdiagnosis of low-risk prostate cancer may result in reducing access to transplant without demonstrated oncological benefits. The objective of the study was to assess the outcome of newly diagnosed prostate cancer in candidates for transplant at the time of listing, and its impact on transplant access and transplant outcomes according to treatment options. This retrospective study was conducted over 10 years in 12 French transplant centers. Patients included were candidates for renal transplant at the time of prostate cancer diagnosis. Demographical and clinical data regarding renal disease, prostate cancer, and transplant surgery were collected. The primary outcome of the study was the interval between prostate cancer diagnosis and active listing according to treatment options. Overall median time from prostate cancer diagnosis to active listing was 25.0 months [16.4-40.2], with statistically significant differences in median time between the radiotherapy and the active surveillance groups (p = .03). Prostate cancer treatment modalities had limited impact on access and outcome of renal transplantation. Active surveillance in low-risk patients does not seem to compromise access to renal transplantation, nor does it impact oncological outcomes.

PURPOSE: The artificial urinary sphincter is the reference treatment for stress urinary incontinence in men, but it remains rarely used in women. This study aimed to compare long-term device survival between women and men, after the first implantation of an AMS800™ artificial urinary sphincter (Boston Scientific) for the treatment of a non-neurogenic stress urinary incontinence. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included all patients with nonneurogenic stress urinary incontinence who underwent surgery in a large-volume university hospital between 2000 and 2013. The primary outcome was the overall survival of the device, defined as the absence of any repeated surgery (revision or explantation) during follow-up. Men and women were matched 3:1 according to age and year of implantation. Differences were analyzed using a Cox model accounting for matching and applying time intervals because hazards were not proportional over time. Sensitivity analyzes were performed, excluding firstly a population with a history of radiotherapy and secondly a population with more than one previous surgery for urinary incontinence. RESULTS: A total of 107 women were matched to 316 men. Median follow-up was 6.0 years (Q1-Q3 1.8-9.4): 7.0 years (Q1-Q3 3.1-10.3) for women and 5.1 years (Q1-Q3 1.3-9.1) for men. During the follow-up, 56 patients had an explantation of the device: 44 men (13.9%) and 12 women (11.2%), and 113 had a revision: 85 men (26.9%) and 28 women (26.1%). Men have a significantly higher risk of explantation or revision than women between 6 months and 8 years after implantation (hazard ratio 2.12 [1.29-3.48]). Before 6 months and after 8 years, there were no significant differences. Both sensitivity analyses found consistent results. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that device survival seems better in women after the first 6 months.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether testicular prosthesis should be fixed. METHODS: Retrospective monocentric study including 169 patients who had implantation of testicular prosthesis between January 2013 and December 2022. Patients answered a telephone questionnaire regarding prosthesis characteristics and satisfaction. RESULTS: Prosthesis was sutured for 59 patients (34.9%) out of 169. 146 patients answered the questionnaire. Satisfaction was excellent regarding size, weight, consistency, and shape. A position too high was a major complain in both groups. Pain and discomfort were significantly higher in the fixed group (30.8% vs 9.78%, P < .001). Few patients reported discomfort with the anchor prosthesis (22.9%). CONCLUSION: Overall satisfaction of the prosthesis is high but discomfort and high positioning are the two items remaining to improve. Our study suggests that fixing prosthesis is a cause of discomfort and won't allow a better positioning.

INTRODUCTION: Microphthalmia Transfactor Family (MiTF) translocation renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) represent a rare subtype of renal cell cancers. They are diagnosed in young patients and have a poor prognosis. The aim of our study was to analyze the clinical and pathological features of patients with MiTF RCC. MATERIAL AND METHOD: We performed a retrospective, monocentric, descriptive study including all patients operated for RCC between January 2015 and January 2023. The diagnosis of MiTF RCC was suspected by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and confirmed by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Survival data according to histological subtype (MiTF versus ccRCC) were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using a log-rank test. The primary endpoint was recurrence-free survival (RFS). A descriptive cohort analysis was performed. RESULTS: Of the 960 patients included, 19 (2%) had FISH-confirmed MiTF tumors. The median age at diagnosis was 42 years [18-75], the sex ratio was 1.11 females for 1 male, and 4 (21%) patients were immediately metastatic. Median RFS was 21months for patients in the MiTF group and was significantly lower than that of ccRCC patients, HR=4.33 [CI95% 2.06; 9.10; P<0.001]. Of the 11 patients with cT1-T2 tumors, 9 (81.8%) were treated with nephron sparing-surgery, with 2 (22.2%) harbored local recurrence. CONCLUSION: Our study shows that patients with MiTF translocation RCC have a significantly lower RFS than non-MiTF RCC patients. Nephron sparing surgery must be weighted by the high risk of recurrence in this particularly young population.
