RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Human papillomavirus (HPV) causes a serious socioeconomic burden globally. However, there is currently no consensus on the optimal sampling method for HPVDNA genotyping in circumcised heterosexual men. This study aimed to determine the diagnostic efficacy of 6 different anatomic sampling sites in HPV DNA polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing of circumcised heterosexual men with genital warts. METHODS: The study included circumcised heterosexual men who presented to our clinic with complaints of genital warts. Swab samples were obtained from the penile shaft (PS), scrotum, coronal sulcus (CS), and external urethral meatus (EUM). First-void urine (FVU) and genital wart biopsy (GWB) were also tested for HPV DNA by PCR. RESULTS: A total of 32 patients (mean age: 36.9 ± 6.9 years) were included. None of the six samples studied was sufficient on its own to reveal all HPV types detected in a patient. When the samples were analyzed individually, GWB detected an average of 49.5% of total HPV types in a patient. This rate was 50.5% for PS, 40.4% for CS, 31.6% for scrotum, 26.3% for EUM, and 15.8% for FVU samples. The detection rate increased to 75.8% with combined testing of GWB and PS samples, 83.2% with GWB/PS/CS, 90.5% with GWB/PS/CS/scrotum, and 98.9% with GWB/PS/CS/scrotum/EUM samples. CONCLUSION: No single anatomic region or sample type can detect all HPV types present in circumcised heterosexual men by PCR assay. The detection rate approaches 99% when wart biopsy is combined with swab sampling of the penile shaft, coronal sulcus, scrotum, and external urethral meatus.

This study evaluated the effectiveness of the A.F. Genital System (Liofilchem® , Italy) in detecting pathogens compared with multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in men with acute urethritis. Men diagnosed as having acute urethritis between 1 April 2021 and 31 December 2021 were included. Urethral swab samples were obtained for A.F. Genital System and PCR testing in a randomly determined order. The efficacy of the A.F. Genital System was analysed by comparing the results of the two tests. The study included 83 patients (mean age 34.1 ± 11.3 years). A urethritis pathogen was detected in 69 patients (83.1%) by PCR and only 15 patients (18.1%) with the A.F. Genital System. The sensitivity of the A.F. Genital System in detecting acute urethritis pathogens was 21.7% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 13.6-32.8), and the specificity was 100% (95% CI: 78.5-100). Its sensitivity was 20% (95% CI: 7.1-45.2) in the diagnosis of gonococcal urethritis and 19.1% (95% CI: 11.2-30.4) in the diagnosis of non-gonococcal urethritis. PCR detected two or more urethritis pathogens in 9 patients (13.0%), while no polymicrobial infection was detected with the A.F. Genital System. Based on the results of multiplex real-time PCR, the A.F. Genital System had very low sensitivity in the detection of pathogens in acute male urethritis. It should be kept in mind that using this test in patients with acute urethritis may result in a high missed diagnosis rate for urethritis pathogens.

PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of robot assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) and open retropubic radical prostatectomy (RRP) on early renal function in this study. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Preoperative and postoperative urea, creatinine, Hb, eGFR values of patients who had undergone RALP and RRP with prostate cancer (PCa) diagnosis were recorded in our clinic. The percentages of change in these values are calculated. Preoperative and postoperative urea, creatinine, Hb and eGFR changes were compared with each other. Student-t test was used for intergroup comparison, and paired sample t test was used to compare changes between preoperative and postoperative values of the same group. RESULTS: There were 160 and 93 patients in the RALP and RRP group, respectively. In the RALP group, postoperative urea and creatinine increased significantly compared to preoperative baseline values while eGFR was decreased (p = 0.0001, p = 0.001, p = 0.0001, respectively). Except for Hb in the RRP group, the changes in these values were statistically insignificant (p = 0.50, p = 0.75, p = 0.30, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: We should be more careful when we perform RALP in patients at risk of impaired renal function despite being a minimally invasive surgical method with superior visual characteristics.

We aimed to evaluate the cancer detection rates of 6-, 10-, 12-core biopsy regimens and the optimal biopsy protocol for prostate cancer diagnosis in patients with renal failure. A total of 122 consecutive patients with renal failure underwent biopsy with age-specific prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels up to 20 ng/mL. The 12-core biopsy technique (sextant biopsy + lateral base, lateral mid-zone, lateral apex, bilaterally) performed to all patients. Pathology results were examined separately for each sextant, 10-core that exclude parasagittal mid-zones from 12-cores (10a), 10-core that exclude apex zones from 12-cores (10b) and 12-core biopsy regimens. Of 122 patients, 37 (30.3%) were positive for prostate cancer. The cancer detection rates for sextant, 10a, 10b and 12 cores were 17.2%, 29%, 23.7% and 30.7%, respectively. Biopsy techniques of 10a, 10b and 12 cores increased the cancer detection rates by 40%, 27.5% and 43.2% among the sextant technique, respectively. Biopsy techniques of 10a and 12 cores increased the cancer detection rates by 17.1% and 21.6% among 10b biopsy technique, respectively. There were no statistical differences between 12 core and 10a core about cancer detection rate. Adding lateral cores to sextant biopsy improves the cancer detection rates. In our study, 12-core biopsy technique increases the cancer detection rate by 5.4% among 10a core but that was not statistically different. On the other hand, 12-core biopsy technique includes all biopsy regimens. We therefore suggest 12-core biopsy or minimum 10-core strategy incorporating six peripheral biopsies with elevated age- specific PSA levels up to 20 ng/mL in patients with renal failure.

BACKGROUND: Hypospadias is a common congenital anomaly which is determined as an abnormal urethral opening on the ventral face of penis. The purpose of this rat model study was to research the effect of topically applied Aloe vera after a tubularized incised plate urethroplasty (TIPU). METHODS: The TIPU model was applied to male Wistar albino rats. A total of 30 rats were randomly grouped into 3 groups of 10. Group I was assigned as the control group, treated with 0.9% saline only twice a day for 15 days. Group II received topical Aloe vera gel once a day and Group III received Aloe vera gel twice a day. Spongiofibrosis was graded as 0: none, 1+:≤10% tissues involved, 2+:10%-49% tissues involved, 3+: ≥ 50% tissues involved. RESULTS: A higher degree of fibrosis and inflammation was determined in the Group I subjects than in Groups II and III. Fibrosis of grade 3+ was observed in 33% of the control group and not in any of the two Aloe groups (p = 0.043). Inflammation of grade 3+ was seen in 66.7% of the control group, in 10% of Group II, and in 33% of Group III (p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: The topical application of Aloe vera to a surgically created tubularized incised plate urethroplasty model decreased inflammation and fibrosis that may affect the success rates of this operation.

Shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) has become the preferred first-line approach to most patients with symptomatic urolithiasis. The purpose of this study is to assess the ideal patient position during SWL for the treatment of distal ureter stones. A total of 342 patients included in this retrospective study. 148 (108 men, 40 women) patients were included in the first group and were treated in supine position. The remaining 194 (143 men, 51 women) patients were included to second group and were treated in prone position. This study designed retrospectively. The procedure was accepted as a success if the patient was stone free or had only clinically insignificant fragments (≤3 mm) for 3 months or more after the last SWL session. Before SWL, the mean is one area in the first group was 61.32 mm2 while the mean stone area in the second group was 59.04 mm2 (p = 0.208). Mean energy, Mean energy maximum and mean number of applied shock waves of the first group was 4.65, 3.19 and 3,960, respectively. The same parameters in second group were 4.26, 3.03 and 2,953, respectively. These results show that there are statistically significant differences between two groups with respect to mean energy, mean energy maximum and mean number of applied shock waves (p = 0.003, p = 0.010, p = 0.000, respectively). Success rate was 85.1% in group 1 and 72.7% in group 2 (p = 0.006). Our results suggest that supine position is effective and better than prone position for SWL in patients with distal ureteric stones.

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy, auxiliary procedures and complications of pediatric extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) performed with electrohydraulic lithotripters. METHODS: Children with urolithiasis, aged between 0 and 15, were retrospectively evaluated. ESWL was performed by using two different electrohydraulic lithotripters, Elmed Multimed Classic (Elmed Medical Systems, Ankara, Turkey) and E-1000 (EMD Medical Systems, Ankara, Turkey), between January 2008 and December 2012 in four different referral centers in Turkey. RESULTS: 85.5% of patients were stone-free at 3 months. Further ESWL treatment was needed in 33.7% of the cases (one session, n = 55; two sessions, n = 15; three sessions, n = 13). Steinstrasse occurred in 10 patients but 8 of them cleared completely during the follow-up period. Urinary tract infection was detected in 3 (3.9%), fever in 3 (3.9%) and a small subcapsular hematoma in one (1.3%) patient, respectively. When the stones were divided into two groups as those with diameters <10 mm and ≥10 mm, it was found that the stone-free rate was associated with stone diameter, and that the smaller diameters had higher but statistically insignificant stone-free rates (P = 0.196). CONCLUSION: ESWL yields favorable results with low rates of complication and auxiliary procedures in selected pediatric patients.

OBJECTIVE: To describe a novel surgical technique, laparoscopic stepwise-cut double initial stay suture (LASDISS) pyeloplasty for ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). Additionally, we evaluated the safety and short-term results. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a nonrandomized study with a series of 6 patients with UPJO, operated on between March 2012 and August 2013. Perioperative and short-term outcomes were evaluated. In brief, a "T shape cut" was performed from the dilated pelvis to the ureter. The initial stay suture was placed between the lower edge of the pelvis and the distal end of the spatulated anterolateral part of the ureter. The pelvis was closed with a continuous suture starting from the opened upper edge of the pelvis that was secured after leaving enough space for ureteral anastomosis. The second initial stay suture was placed after passing the ureter and pelvis two times. The dilated part of the renal pelvis and the stenotic segment were excised. A double-J stent was inserted. The remaining space between the two initial sutures was closed with these continuous sutures. RESULTS: We performed the LASDISS pyeloplasty technique in all cases. Median operation time was 177 minutes (range, 100-290 minutes). Mean follow-up was 7.5 months (range, 3-18 months). The mean pre- and postoperative split renal function on diuretic renography was 33% (range, 25%-56%) and 42% (range, 30%-52%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The LASDISS pyeloplasty surgical technique represents a safe and effective option in surgical treatment of UPJO.

A 42-year-old man presented with right lower quadrant abdominal pain and dysuria. The bladder was displaced to the right side of the pelvis in excretory urography. Abdominal CT revealed a mass in right adrenal gland, measuring 8 cm in diameter. There was also a cystic mass; filling left half of the bony pelvis and displacing bladder to the right, measuring 14.5 x 10, 5 x 7 cm. The patient underwent right adrenalectomy and pelvic mass excision. Pathologic examination showed that the adrenal mass was pheochromocytoma and pelvic mass was dermoid cyst. This case is the first one in literature that an intrapelvic dermoid cyst is not derived from an organ coexists with pheochromocytoma.

OBJECTIVE: There is always a risk of urethral recurrence after radical cystoprostatectomy in patients with bladder transitional cell cancer. Taking these risk factors of urethral recurrence into account, orthotopic neobladders or urinary diversions without using the urethra are performed. But urethral tumour recurrence occurs much less than the expected. We assessed the etiological factors that affect the urethral recurrence in orthotopic and nonorthotopic urinary diversion cases. METHODS: Sixty-four patients with bladder cancer who underwent radical cystoprostatectomy and urinary diversion between 1994 and 2002 were included this study. Conventional risk factors effecting the selection of operation type and urethral recurrence were evaluated in these patients. Cystoscopy and biopsy were done and pathologic specimen was obtained preoperatively, and cystoscopy and urethral washout cytology were done postoperatively. Routine bladder biopsies were done in uncertain cases at follow-up. Risk factors increasing the urethral recurrence are as follows: papillary and multiple tumours, tumour invading bladder neck and trigone, extensive CIS, prostatic stromal and urethral invasion, positive surgical margin and history of upper urinary tract tumour. In 31 patients having one or more of these criteria, continent nonorthotopic urinary diversion was performed, but 33 patients without these risk factors underwent orthotopic urinary diversion. Simultaneous urethrectomy was not done in any of these patients. RESULTS: Among the patients who underwent radical cystoprostatectomy, none was with positive surgical margin in the distal end of the prostatic urethra. In preoperative cystoscopy, tumoural mass was seen near to collum in eight patients and in the prostatic urethra in three patients. Histopathological examination of cystoprostatectomy specimen displayed transient epithelial cell carcinoma of prostatic urethra in three patients, transient epithelial cell metaplasia inside the prostate in five patients and invasion to the urothelium of bladder neck in three patients. There were not any transient epithelial cell cancer metastases in prostatic stroma in any of these patients. One patient underwent urethrectomy, since atypical cells were observed in postradical prostatectomy urethral washout cytology but there was no tumour found in pathological examination of the specimen. Therefore, urethral tumour recurrence did not occur after 25 months follow up. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that some of the conventional risk factors of urethral recurrence were exaggerated. We may also conclude that there is no need for prophylactic urethrectomy unless there is urethral cancer or cancer in the surgical margin. But if utilization of urethra is planned, evaluation of prostatic stroma by TUR biopsies and urethral anastomose margin by frozen section during the operation is necessary.

BACKGROUND: Urethritis is characterized by urethral inflammation, and it can result from both infectious and noninfectious conditions. Physicians and other health care providers play a critical role in preventing and treating urethritis. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to describe and identify predictors of health care seeking behavior among men with urethritis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In total, 98 male patients aged between 16 to 52 years-of-age (mean 30.9 ± 8.0 years), who attended our clinic with symptoms of urethritis, were included in the study. We conducted face-to-face interviews with the patients using a 9-item survey questionnaire. Patients were divided into three groups according to their level of education as follows: group I (n = 44), elementary school; group II (n = 38), high school; and group III (n = 16), university. RESULTS: Among the 98 patients evaluated, the source of treatment was physicians in 44 patients (44.9%), drugstores in 38 cases (38.77%), and friends in 16 patients (16.32%). There was a statistically significant difference found between the groups according to the source of treatment (P < 0.001). The most common factors associated with seeking care from other sources, rather than physicians, were economic reasons in 19 patients (35.18%), confidentiality concerns in 24 (44.4%), and ease of access in 11 patients (20.37%). CONCLUSIONS: A substantial proportion of patients with urethritis sought help from other sources, rather than physicians. The results of our study show that the patients with higher levels of education were more likely to seek help from health care services. It is important to promote the public's knowledge through informative studies and educational materials in order to encourage patients to seek rapid and effective treatment from proper sources.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate our experience on diagnosis and management of penile fractures. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study included 31 patients who were treated for penile fracture between 2002 and 2012. We analyzed the etiology of penile fracture, concomitant pathologies such as urethral injury, deep or superficial dorsal vein ruptures, treatment modalities (surgery or conservative treatment) and complications of treatment modalities. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 32 years (range, 23-47 years). In 27 patients (87%), the cause of penile fracture was sexual intercourse. Patients presented with swelling, pain and popping or cracking sound in penis. The diagnosis of penile fracture was established clinically in all of the patients. There were no urethral injuries or dorsal vein ruptures. Ten patients who refused surgical treatment were treated conservatively and remaining 21 patients with early surgical intervention. Among conservatively treated patients, two suffered from erectile dysfunction, two from painful erection and another two from penile curvature. No serious complications such as erectile dysfunction, penile curvature or painful erection were observed in surgically treated patients. CONCLUSION: Penile fracture can be diagnosed easily with history and physical examination, and favorable functional results can be achieved with early surgical repair.

ABSTRACT Purpose: To investigate the effect of robot assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) and open retropubic radical prostatectomy (RRP) on early renal function in this study. Materials and Methods: Preoperative and postoperative urea, creatinine, Hb, eGFR values of patients who had undergone RALP and RRP with prostate cancer (PCa) diagnosis were recorded in our clinic. The percentages of change in these values are calculated. Preoperative and postoperative urea, creatinine, Hb and eGFR changes were compared with each other. Student-t test was used for intergroup comparison, and paired sample t test was used to compare changes between preoperative and postoperative values of the same group. Results: There were 160 and 93 patients in the RALP and RRP group, respectively. In the RALP group, postoperative urea and creatinine increased significantly compared to preoperative baseline values while eGFR was decreased (p = 0.0001, p = 0.001, p = 0.0001, respectively). Except for Hb in the RRP group, the changes in these values were statistically insignificant (p = 0.50, p = 0.75, p = 0.30, respectively). Conclusions: We should be more careful when we perform RALP in patients at risk of impaired renal function despite being a minimally invasive surgical method with superior visual characteristics.

Idiopathic scrotal calcinosis is a rare, benign condition with the presence of multiple slow-growing yellowish-white calcified asymptomatic nodules that appear within the scrotal skin. The disease affects patients in childhood or early adulthood. The etiology of idiopathic scrotal calcinosis is still controversial. It can extensively affect the scrotal skin, but primary closure is usually achievable with good esthetic outcomes.

Nephrogenic adenoma (NA) is an uncommon benign lesion of the urothelial tract. The diagnostic features that are useful in the recognition of this benign entity are: the characteristic mixture of various architectural patterns, associated stromal edema and inflammation, hyaline sheath around tubules, and lack of mitotic activity. Although NA appears with hematuria or obstruction, frequently found incidentally in endoscopy or imaging modalities.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To review our experiences with management of symptomatic ureteral calculi complicating pregnancy. METHODS: Between January 2001 and December 2011, 57 pregnant women were treated for symptomatic ureteral stones. The medical records of these patients were reviewed retrospectively. RESULTS: The mean patient age was 24 (range 17-37) years and gestational age at presentation was 26 weeks (range 12-38). Most of the cases (60%) occurred in the third trimester. Flank pain was the most common presenting symptom (90%). Ultrasonography was the initial test confirming diagnosis. With conservative management, spontaneous passing of stones was noted in 13 cases (22.8%). In 10 patients (17.5%), symptomatic relief occurred without spontaneous passing of stones until the end of pregnancy. Invasive management was required in 34 patients (59.6%) because of persistent pain and/or ureteral obstruction. In 29 patients, ureteral calculi were treated successfully by ureteroscopy. Stones were extracted by pneumatic lithotripsy or forceps. In 5 patients, only double-J stent was inserted during ureteroscopy as a result of unreached or migrated stone. The majority of patients (58.8%) had lower ureteric calculi. The mean size of the stones retrieved was 7 mm (range 4-13 mm). Minor complications like ureteric edema, mild ureteric laceration, or bleeding were seen in 5 patients. Three patients had a urinary tract infection and 3 complained of stent-induced bladder irritation; uterine contraction was observed after the procedure in 1 patient, but no serious obstetric or urologic complications were observed in any case. CONCLUSION: When conservative treatment fails, ureteroscopy is an effective and safe therapeutic option in symptomatic ureteral calculi complicating pregnancy.

Enterovesical fistulas are rare complications of malignancies, diverticulitis, inflammatory bowel diseases, radiotherapy, and traumas involving the colorectal and pelvic region. In this study, an ileovesical fistula that occurred during chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma is presented. The patient had acute abdomen and multiple comorbidities, and ileovesical fistula was diagnosed during the operation. The affected intestinal segment was resected, and an end-to-end anastomosis was performed with a primary bladder repair. This is a reliable treatment method for such cases.
