RESUMO
Aims: Retroperitoneoscopic simple nondismembered pyeloplasty (SNDP) with da Vinci Si assistance was developed because of a possible risk for alignment shift after retroperitoneoscopic diamond-shaped bypass pyeloplasty (Diamond-Bypass; DP). Outcomes of SNDP and DP were compared. Materials and Methods: For SNDP, a small longitudinal incision is made on the border of the dilated pelvis and narrowed ureter at the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ). Extending this incision toward the pelvis allows identification of mucosa while maintaining the integrity of surrounding tissues that are so thin and fragile that they will not influence lumen alignment. Data for DP were obtained from a previously published article. Results: For SNDP (n = 3), mean age at surgery was 2.67 years (range: 1-4), mean operative time was 176 minutes. Mean postoperative Society of Fetal Urology (SFU) grades for hydronephrosis were 1.2, 0.7, and 0.6, 1, 2, and 3 months after stent removal, respectively. Postoperative diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) was normal (n = 3). For DP (n = 5) mean age at surgery was 4.3 years (range: 1-14), mean operative time was 189 minutes. Mean postoperative SFU grades were 2.8, 2.2, and 1.6, respectively. Postoperative DTPA was normal (n = 4) and delayed (n = 1). All SNDP and DP were asymptomatic by 3 months after stent removal. Conclusion: Both SNDP and DP have favorable outcomes. If the UPJ is located at the lowest end of the renal pelvis, SNDP may improve hydronephrosis more quickly.

Background: Acute aortic dissection (AAD) often leads to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and death before hospital arrival. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate differences in AAD incidence by sex. Methods: A population-based study in a city with 121,180 residents was conducted using postmortem computed tomography data to identify patients with AAD who died before hospital arrival in 2008-2020. The incidence rate ratio and odds ratio were estimated using Poisson regression and univariable logistic regression, respectively. Results: A total of 266 patients with incident AAD were enrolled: 84 patients with OHCA, 137 women [n = 137], and 164 patients with type A AAD. The crude and age-adjusted incidence of AAD was 16.2 and 14.3/100,000 person-years, respectively. The incidence of AAD was comparable by sex (men, 16.7/100,000 person-years; women, 15.7/100,000 person-years; incidence rate ratio: 0.94; 95% CI: 0.74-1.20; P = 0.64). Compared with men with AAD, women with AAD were older (77 ± 11 years vs 70 ± 14 years; P < 0.001), and a higher proportion had type A AAD (76% vs 47%; P < 0.001). Women with AAD had higher prehospital mortality than men with AAD (37% vs 21%; P = 0.004; OR: 2.24; 95% CI: 1.30-3.87; P = 0.004). Among 1,373 patients with OHCA, the proportion of women with AAD was significantly higher than the proportion of men with AAD (11% vs 3.9%; P < 0.001; OR: 2.90; 95% CI: 1.86-4.53; P < 0.001). AAD was most common in women aged 60 to 69 years (16.4%). Conclusions: Women had a higher incidence of AAD presenting as prehospital death than men.
