[Congenital penile curvature: Guidelines from the Andrology and Sexual Medicine Committee of the French Association of Urology (CAMS-AFU)]. / Courbures congénitales du pénis : recommandations du Comité d'andrologie et de médecine sexuelle de l'Association française d'urologie.

INTRODUCTION: Guidelines regarding congenital penile curvature (CPC) are lacking, and this pathology has not been the subject of French recommendations to date. The Andrology and Sexual Medicine Committee (CAMS) of the French Association of Urology (AFU) propose a series of clinical practice recommendations (CPR) by answering five clinical questions concerning the diagnosis and treatment of this pathology. MATERIALS AND METHODS: After a bibliographic research between 2000 and 2021, followed by a critical reading according to the CRP method. These recommendations were written to answer five questions: (1) What are the different types of CPC? (2) What are the reasons for consultation? (3) What are the assessment methods for CPCs and their consequences? (4) What are the indications for CPCs treatment? (5) What are the corrective modalities for the treatment of CPC? RESULTS: There are two main phenotypes: CPC type 4 (the most common) and chordee without hypospadias. The diagnosis of CPC is clinical and established through enquiry and clinical examination associated with photos of the erect penis. Support can be offered if the curvature is responsible for a disability and/or sexual dissatisfaction linked to a deformation making penetration difficult and/or in the event of significant psychological impact. Only surgical treatments have demonstrated their effectiveness. For type 4 CPCs, corporoplasty (excisional, incisional, or incisionless techniques) is the gold standard. CONCLUSION: These recommendations provide support for the management of patients consulting with CPC.

[French Urological Association (AFU) guidelines for Peyronie's disease assessment and treatment]. / Recommandations pour l'évaluation et la prise en charge de la maladie de Lapeyronie : rapport du comité d'andrologie et de médecine sexuelle de l'AFU.

INTRODUCTION: Peyronie's disease is a common cause for consultation in urology. Many controversies surround its treatment. No French Guidelines have been published so far. The Committee of Andrology and Sexual Medicine of the French Association of Urology therefore offers a series of evidence-based recommendations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: These recommendations are made according to the ADAPTE method, based on European (EAU, ESSM), American (AUA, ISSM) and Canadian (CAU) recommendations, integrating French specificities due to the availability of treatments, and an update of the recent bibliography. RESULTS: The assessment of the disease is clinical. Patients with functional impairment or significant psychological repercussions may be offered treatment. The benefits and drawbacks of each treatment should be explained to the patient. Regarding non-surgical treatments, no available treatment has market authorization in France. Vitamin E is not recommended. Analgesic (oral or low-intensity shock waves) or proerectile treatments may be offered as needed, as well as traction therapy. Due to the unavailability of collagenase injections, verapamil injections may be offered. Surgical treatments are to be considered in the stabilized phase of the disease, and consist of performing a plication, an incision-graft or the placement of a penile implant according to the patient's wishes, the curvature and the penis size, as well as erectile function. Combination treatments can be offered. CONCLUSION: The management of Peyronie's disease is complex, and the levels of evidence for treatments are generally low. The success of treatment will depend on the quality of the initial assessment, the patient's information and understanding of the expected effects, and the practitioner's experience.

[Recommendations of the Committee of Andrology and Sexual Medicine of the AFU concerning the management of andrological and sexual medicine pathologies during the COVID-19 crisis]. / Recommandations du Comité d'andrologie et de médecine sexuelle de l'AFU concernant la prise en charge andrologique et en médecine sexuelle en contexte et en sortie de crise sanitaire liée au COVID-19.

OBJECTIVE: To assist urologists in the management of andrological and sexual medicine pathologies during the COVID-19 crisis. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Use of the formalized consensus method. RESULTS: The medical and surgical management of patients in andrology and sexual medicine must be adapted. Consultations should, as far as possible, be carried out by tele-consultation. For operative procedures, the delay between the operative decision and the date of (re)scheduling of the procedure will depend on: (1) the level of criticality of the clinical situation; (2) the type of intervention; (3) the functional and psychological repercussions, including quality of life while waiting for the procedure; (4) the notion of losing the chance of having an optimal outcome; (5) the risk of potential complications from delaying a procedure for too long; and (6) taking into account the patient's risk factors for severe forms of COVID-19. The protection of urologists from COVID-19 should be considered. Each urologist must make the best decision for the patient, taking into account the acceptable time frame and quality of life impact before surgical management, the COVID risk parameters, the technical and anesthetic feasibility and the structural possibility of the health care institution to ensure a specific dedicated pathway during the COVID-19 health crisis. CONCLUSION: The management of andrological and sexual medicine pathologies must be adapted to the COVID-19 crisis context. Some patients may require surgery, including in emergency. These recommendations are transitional and will end with the COVID-19 crisis.

[Recommendations of the Committee of Andrology and Sexual Medicine of the AFU concerning the management of Varicocele]. / Recommandations du Comité d'Andrologie et de Médecine Sexuelle de l'AFU concernant la prise en charge de la Varicocèle.

The diagnosis of varicocele is clinical, carried out in supine and standing position and in Valsalva maneuver. Only clinical varicoceles have to be treated. A scrotal ultrasound with Doppler is generally performed as part of the infertile man's evaluation or in case of examination difficulties. The main indication for varicocele treatment is the adult man with clinical varicocele and abnormalities of sperm parameters, in a context of infertility of couple, with a partner having a satisfactory ovarian reserve and no cause of female infertility or a curable infertility cause. The decision to treat varicocele must therefore be taken after evaluation of the two partners of the couple. Adults with symptomatic varicocele and those with spermogram abnormalities may also be offered a cure for their varicocele even in the absence of a paternity plan, as well as adolescents with reduced testicular growth, an ipsilateral decrease testicular volume, or a size gradient between the 2 testes. The cure of varicocele can be carried out by surgery or by percutaneous embolization. Microsurgery (inguinal or subinguinal) offers lower rates of recurrence and complications than high surgical approaches (laparoscopic or not) and surgeries without magnification. It is therefore the reference surgical technique. Percutaneous retrograde embolization is a minimally invasive alternative to microsurgery offering satisfactory outcomes with rare and often benign complications. The cure for varicocele results in an improvement in sperm parameters and recent data seem to confirm that it increases the natural pregnancy rate. These results appear after a delay of 3 to 9 months (at least 1 to 2 cycles of spermatogenesis). When the sperm involvement was severe (azoospermia, severe oligospermia), the improvement of the spermogram allow (1) to avoid surgery testicular sperm extraction or (2) perform intrauterine insemination rather than ICSI.

[Biotherapies for erectile dysfunction and Peyronie's disease: Where are we now?] / Biothérapies pour les troubles de l'érection et la maladie de la Peyronie : ou en est-on ?

INTRODUCTION: Clinical trials of cell therapy for erectile dysfunction (ED) and Peyronie's disease (PD) were recently conducted after preclinical studies. AIMS: The aims of this study are to give an update on biotherapy for ED and PD and to describe the regulatory framework for these therapies. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A literature review was performed through PubMed and Clinical.trials.gov addressing cell therapy for ED and PD and using following keywords "erectile dysfunction", "Peyronie's disease", "stem cell", and "platelet-rich plasma". RESULTS: Preclinical studies in rodent models have shown the potential benefit of cell therapy for ED after radical prostatectomy or caused by metabolic diseases, and PD. The tissues used to obtain the therapeutic product were bone marrow, adipose tissue and blood (PRP, platelet-rich plasma). Mechanism of action was shown to be temporary and mainly paracrine. Four clinical trials were published concerning ED after radical prostatectomy and in diabetic patients and one for PD. Eleven clinical trials including three randomized trials are currently going on. Preclinical and preliminary clinical results suggested the possibility to improve spontaneous erectile function and response to pharmaceutical treatment in initially non-responder patients. This effect is mediated by an improvement of penile vascularization. A reduction of penile curvature without side effect was noted after injections into the plaque of PD patients. Most of these therapeutic strategies using autologous cells were considered as "Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products" with strict regulatory frameworks imposing heavy constraints, in particular in case of "substantial" modification of the cells. The regulatory framework remains unclear and more permissive for PRP and cell therapy processes with extemporaneous preparation/injection and no "substantial" modifications. CONCLUSIONS: First results on cell therapy for ED and PD are promising. The regulatory framework can significantly change according to cell preparations and origins leading to various constraints. This regulatory framework is crucial to consider for the choice of the procedure.

The place of Surgical Schools: Their role in training surgeons.

Surgical Schools have appeared on university campuses as technical learning platforms only fairly recently. They define and assess progressive educational programs in each of the specialties. The students must learn both technical and non-technical acts. The teaching is intended primarily for students during their initial training but also can serve for continuing education in the context of learning new techniques. These technical platforms are expensive, and consideration must be given to pooling of resources at the regional or national levels for the most sophisticated among them. The teaching is carried out with a set of synthetic or organic simulators. In accordance with European regulations, the use of animal models should be kept to a minimum. The use of human anatomical specimens is very useful for certain specialties and justifies the participation of anatomy and pathology laboratories in the training of young surgeons. Certification of these technical simulation platforms should be obtained. Funding for initial surgical training on these high-tech platforms has yet to be resolved.

[Plaque incision and Tachosil graft in Peyronie's Disease]. / Incision de plaque et greffe de Tachosil chez les patients atteints d'une maladie de Lapeyronie.

INTRODUCTION: Surgery is a treatment for correction of penile curvature in Peyronie's disease. Partial plaque excision and grafting is recommended for severe and complex curvature. METHODS: Patients with stable penile curvature who underwent a partial plaque excision and grafting between January 2017 and April 2018 were retrospectively included. The graft was realized using a self-adhesive collagen fleece (Tachosil®). Penile curvature, penile length and erection score were measured before and after surgery. RESULTS: Twenty-one patients, aged 52,13 (18-70 years) were included. The average follow-up after surgery was 8,36 months (1-14 months). Early complications included two hematomas and one dysuria (Clavien 1). One patient had a penile prosthesis hernia 3 months after surgery, and needed a new surgery (Clavien 3B). Patients stayed at the hospital 1.38 night (1-5) and operating time was 158min (102-249min). Average penile curvature after surgery was 5.88° (0-30°), while it was 82.75° (50-100°) before. Erection score increased from 7.62 (3-10) to 7.86 (4-10). There was no modification of the penile length 11.92cm (11-14.5) after surgery and 12.09cm (10-15cm) before. CONCLUSION: The use of TachoSil® reduces the operative time, is easy to use and has hemostatic properties at a low cost. However, prospective randomized trial and long terms results are required to confirm our encouraging results. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 3.

[Benign prostatic hyperplasia surgery and patient's information: What do patients understand and remember?] / Chirurgie de l'hypertrophie bénigne de prostate et information des patients : qu'est ce que les patients comprennent et retiennent ?

INTRODUCTION: Preoperative information is a key to adherence to treatment for the patients, but may be misunderstood because of its density and complexity. The aim of this study was to assess comprehension and satisfaction of patients about preoperative information of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) surgery. Factors influencing patient understanding were also studied. PATIENTS AND METHODS: It was a monocentric study on questionnaires including every patients planned for BPH surgery, whatever the surgical technique. A survey was sent at patient's home after the preoperative consultation. RESULTS: One hundred and six of 210 patients (50,5 %) returned the questionnaire. 38,68 % (n=41) found the quality of information excellent (9 or 10 out of 10), and 45,28 % (n=48) found the quality of information good (7 or 8 out of 10). The main recalled complications were retrograde ejaculation (39.6 %, n=42/106), and bleeding (29,2 %, n=31/106). 57.6 % of patients (n=61) remembered receiving the written information sheet of the French Association of Urology. 5.7 % (n=6) hesitated having the procedure. Only patient's age was significantly associated with difference of comprehension (p<0.005). CONCLUSION: Information given before a BPH surgery seems satisfactory although it was poorly understood, notably about complications. Providing complete oral information, insisting on complications, and giving the written information sheet are essential for a good doctor-patient relationship and a forensic serenity.

Efficacy and security of continent catheterizable channels at short and middle term for adult neurogenic bladder dysfunction.

AIMS: The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness and the complications rate following continent cutaneous channels (CCC) procedures, at short and medium term follow-up (FU). MATERIALS & METHODS: A continuous retrospective case series (2008-2018): all patients who have undergone a CCC for neurogenic bladder were included in our department. The primary outcome was the effectiveness of CCC defined by the status of catheterizability (by the patient or a care-giver), continence of the tube, and absence of reintervention at 3 and 12 months FU. The secondary outcome was the prevalence of postoperative complications at 3 and 12 months FU. RESULTS: Fifty-three patients were included during the study period in our department. Median follow up was 3,3 years (1.5-6.1). The overall effectiveness of CCC was 67.9% (n=36/53) at 3 months FU and 45,3% (n=24) at 12 months FU. The global rate of complications was 60.4% (n=32/53) at 3 months, and 73.6% (n=39/73) at 12 months FU. The statistical analysis showed no statistical differences on efficacy and complications in the different subgroups of CCC. CONCLUSIONS: In the current series, the effectiveness and the complications rates following CCC were comparable across the procedure types. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

[Enhanced recovery after robotic partial nephrectomy: Evaluation of patient's satisfaction]. / Réhabilitation précoce après tumorectomie rénale robot-assistée : quelle satisfaction des patients ?

INTRODUCTION: Several enhanced recovery protocols after surgery showed a benefit for postoperative recovery and reduction of hospital lengths of stay. Very few studies evaluated patient's satisfaction about these enhanced recovery protocols. The aim of this study was to evaluate patient's satisfaction about our enhanced recovery protocol for robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN). METHODS: A validated survey EORTC In PATSAT32 with a specific questionnaire about protocol was sent to the first patients included in the enhanced recovery protocol for RAPN. The survey was sent after the postoperative consultation at postoperative day 30. Responses were anonymous. Satisfaction's scores for EORTC questionnaire were calculated for each dimension with Likert's method. Scores were transformed linearly into a scale ranging from 0 to 100, where 100 represent the highest level of care satisfaction (EORTC method). RESULTS: A total of 21 patients (50%) returned the completed questionnaire. The overall satisfaction score was 75.1% (37.3; 100) in the EORTC survey. In total, 71.4% of patients (n=15) were satisfied with the discharge at postoperative day 2 (POD2) and 5 patients (23.8%) found this premature. None of the patients had a negative impression on the clinical pathway. The average overall evaluation on the protocol by patients, on a satisfaction scale of 1 to 10 was 8.9/10. CONCLUSION: In this study, patients included in the enhanced recovery protocol after RAPN were very satisfied with their pre-, per- and postoperative care. Given patients satisfaction, reduction of LOS, patient's safety and the medicoeconomic advantage, these enhanced recovery protocol have become a priority to develop and evaluate. More large studies are needed to assess the patient's experience with these clinical pathways. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

[Long-term outcomes of intradetrusor botulinum toxin A in multiple sclerosis patients]. / Efficacité au long terme de la toxine botulique dans l'hyperactivité de vessie chez les patients atteints de sclérose en plaques.

INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to analyze the long-term efficiency and tolerance of TB in the management of anticholinergic refractory hyperactive bladder in patients with MS. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Retrospective mono-centric cohort study of all patients with MS who had a TB injection for anticholinergic refractory hyperactivity from 2005 to 2015. The primary endpoint was clinical efficiency based on the frequency of urinary leakage and symptomatic urinary tract infections. RESULTS: One hundred and nineteen patients received the first injection. Median follow-up was 26.5 months. After an injection, there was a significant decrease in the number of leaks, with 69.7% of patients without leaks and 93.3% of patients without urinary tract infections. After 7 injections 44% of the patients were still dry and 62.07% had no symptomatic urinary tract infections. The failure rate was 24.37%, the average duration before discharge was 34.7 months. 19 (66%) patients stop treatment for loss of efficacy, 9 (31%) for disease progression and 1 (3%) for cessation of treatment without cause. Of the 774 injections performed, there were complications for 26 of them (3.35%). CONCLUSION: Botulinum toxin remains the second-line reference treatment for detrusor overactivity of neurological origin. There is, at least in the short term, a good answer in a large number of cases. This response can be maintained for many years, especially if patients use intermittent catheterization, with excellent tolerance. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

[Penile prosthesis implantation: Indications and outcomes]. / Indications et résultats des implants péniens.

OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to present the indications and the outcomes of penile prosthesis implantation. METHODS: A literature review was performed through PubMed using the following keywords: penile implantation ; penile prosthesis; erectile dysfunction. RESULTS: Evolution of penile prosthesis devices led to get a fiable and effective treatment for men with erectile dysfunction who do not respond to less invasive therapy. Penile implant can also be useful in the treatment of Peyronie's disease, priapism and transgender surgery. Precise information related to this surgery, especially complications, permits to obtain high satisfaction scores. CONCLUSION: Penile implant is a reliable and safe solution for the management of erectile dysfunction resulting to high couple satisfaction ratings.

[Integrate the surgical hand disinfection as a quality indicator in an operating room of urology]. / Intégrer la désinfection chirurgicale des mains comme indicateur de qualité dans un bloc opératoire d'urologie.

The surgical hand disinfection by friction (SDF) helps to reduce the risk of surgical site infections. For this purpose and in order to promote good compliance to quality care, the urology service of Centre Hospitalier Lyon Sud achieved a continuous internal audit to improve the quality of the SDF. METHODS: An internal audit executed by the medical students of urology was established in 2013. The study population was all operators, instrumentalists and operating aids of urology operating room (OR). Each student realized 5-10 random observations, of all types of professionals. The criteria measured by the audit were criteria for friction. RESULTS: The evolution of indicators was positive. Particularly, the increasing duration of the first and second friction was statistically significant during follow-up (P=0.001). The total duration of friction shows a similar trend for all professionals. CONCLUSION: The surgical hand disinfection by friction in the urology OR of the Centre Hospitalier Lyon Sud has gradually improved over the iterative audits.

[Notice of expert for modality and prescriptions limits of local estrogenotherapy for urinairy inconfinence in women]. / Avis d'experts sur les modalités et limites de prescription des estrogènes locaux dans l'incontinence urinaire chez la femme.

OBJECTIVE: To develop a consensus of experts on the use of local estrogens in female urinary incontinence. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Following a formalized consensus method (DELPHI), a questionnaire was produced and sent to a first round and then to a second round of experts. The questionnaire consisted of proposals for recommendations for the use of local estrogens in the context of female urinary incontinence. The Survey Monkey® survey software allowed the questionnaire to be distributed and the answers obtained to be analyzed. RESULTS: Eight experts responded to the first round questionnaire. Seven formulations were deleted, 3 amended and 4 added to the first round questionnaire following expert advice. Twenty-six experts replied to the second round questionnaire, 24 of which were complete. Ten of the 21 proposals were approved at more than 80%, including five with strong agreement regarding the recognized benefit of local estrogens in urinary incontinence due to overactive bladder, the absence of data from the literature to demonstrate over-risk of hormone-dependent cancer under local estrogens and the need for follow-up of patients under this treatment. Six proposals were not the subject of a consensus and concerned the prescription modalities (maximum duration, effective minimum dose, prescription before surgery for incontinence). CONCLUSION: Although local estrogens did not have regulatory approval in urinary incontinence, more than 80% of these experts recognized their benefit in the management of urinary incontinence in women with vulvo-vaginal atrophy, particularly in the case of urinary urge incontinence. LEVEL OF PROOF: 4.

[The Allium ureteral stent in the management of ureteral stenoses, a retrospective, multicenter study]. / Stent Allium urétéral dans la prise en charge des sténoses urétérales. Étude rétrospective multicentrique.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the performance of the Allium ureteral stent in the management of patients initially treated with double J stents for the long-term treatment of stenoses. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed a retrospective multicenter study involving 36 patients who received 37 Allium ureteral stents (metallic 24 Fr) between September 2011 and January 2015 in one of three French teaching hospital centers. The mean age of the patients was 63.8 years (min-max: 33-88 years) and most were women (70%). Of these patients, 5.6% had ureteral fistulae and 94.4% stenoses. Mean stenosis length was 4.15cm (min-max: 0.5-12cm). All analyses were two-tailed with an alpha risk of 0.05. Statistical significance was set at P<0.05. Results were expressed as hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals and P-values. RESULTS: During the follow-up period, 37% of the stents were removed due to migration (complication occurring in 18.9% of the studied population), infection (10.8%) or intolerance (8.1%). The other stents were removed after 1 year. Clinical effectiveness, defined as a lack of stenosis or fistula recurrence, was 52.8% after a mean follow-up of 7.1 months. CONCLUSION: Clinically effective in more than 50% of cases, the Allium ureteral stent appears to be an alternative to indwelling double J stents. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

Patient-reported long-term sexual outcomes following plication surgery for penile curvature: A retrospective 58-patient study.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate long-term sexual function results following plication surgery for the correction of penile curvature using patient questionnaires. METHODS: We performed a single-center, retrospective study in a cohort of patients with Peyronie's disease or congenital penile curvature. All patients who underwent plication surgery on the convex aspect using the Nesbit, Yachia or diamond-shaped techniques were included. At a mean 34 months after the interventions, the patients were asked to respond to the IIEF5 questionnaire and a 19-item questionnaire. RESULTS: Forty-six patients operated for Peyronie's disease and 12 for congenital curvature (total: 58) were included in the study. The questionnaire response rate was 69% (40/58). The shortened penis bothered 47.5% of patients in their sexuality at least regularly. Involuntary exit from the vagina occurred for 35% of the patients in at least one out of two sexual intercourse sessions. Postoperative sexual life was as good as or better than preoperative sexual life for 35% of the patients and 95% stated that they could achieve erection at least sometimes, in coherence with the mean IIEF5 result of 19.3/25. CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that even when successful, a relatively high rate of patients may be unsatisfied with the results of plication surgery, and there may be a relatively low rate of maintenance or improvement of postoperative sexual life. Furthermore, our in-house questionnaire, although not validated, shed light on how bothersome the loss of penis length is in postoperative sexuality, an aspect the IIEF5 and its sole evaluation of erectile quality cannot detect.

[Impact of anastomotic strictures on treatment of post-prostatectomy stress incontinence by artificial urinary sphincter]. / Impact des sténoses anastomotiques sur le traitement de l'incontinence urinaire post-prostatectomie par sphincter artificiel.

INTRODUCTION: Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a degradation of the quality of life factor in the consequences of radical prostatectomy. Artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) is the standard treatment. Screening and preoperative treatment of anastomotic strictures (AS) is an essential step for the success of the intervention. The objective of the study was to assess the impact of AS on the results of AUA. METHODS: We retrospectively studied 147 AUS settlements from 2005 to 2013 in the urology department of the Centre Hospitalier Lyon by three operators. The demographic characteristics, the irradiation history, the severity of incontinence, the complications of AUS, the continence rate and the postoperative satisfaction were collected. Wilcoxon statistical tests and Fischer and a Kaplan-Meier curve were used to compare the two control groups and AS. Logistic regression analysis looked for predictors of surgical reintervention. RESULTS: Of the 147 patients included, 24 (16.3%) had a history of AS. Of these, 21 (87.5%) were treated with endoscopic urethrotomy. Patients in the AS group had more severe incontinence (P<0.05) than in the control group. Explantation rates, recurrence of incontinence and reoperation was 12.5%, 8.3% and 33.3% in the AS group against 4.9%, 15.4% and 27.6% in the control group. In logistic regression, history of AS has not been found as reoperation risk factor. Continents and satisfied patients rate were 77.8% and 76.5%, respectively in the AS group against 91.1% and 81.1% in the control group. CONCLUSION: The history of AS does not appear to be predictive of poor outcome after implementation of a AUS. Larger cohort studies are needed to confirm these results. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

[Patient information before bladder wall injection of botulinum toxin A (Botox®): Which essential items? Results of Delphi consensus from GENULF experts]. / Information patient avant injection de toxine botulique intradétrusorienne (Botox®) : quels sont les items indispensables ? Résultats d'un consensus Delphi d'experts du Groupe d'étude de neuro-urologie de langue française (GENULF).

INTRODUCTION: Preoperative information before bladder wall injection of botulinum toxin A (Botox®) holds several essential facts to understand and retain by the patients. The aim of this study was a review of essential preoperative information items according to GENULF medical experts. METHOD: It was a prospective review from December 2015 to April 2016. Three Delphi rounds had been done from the Survey Monkey® software. The initial questionnaire was composed of items from the patient information sheet edited by the GENULF. Each item had been rated by the medical expert on a numeric scale of importance for patient information. The last round asked to experts to confirm items eventually selected. RESULTS: A list of 27 items regarded as essentials for patient information had been checked by experts after three Delphi rounds, confirmed by 15/19 experts (75%). Best rated items were "learning self-catheterisation is essential" (mean interest 8,5/9 ; number of rate 8 or 9: 15), "kidney are protected over the long term" (mean interest 8,3/9 ; number of rate 8 or 9: 15), "efficiency is 6 to 9 months long" (mean interest 8,2/9 ; number of rate 8 or 9: 14). Discrepancies were mostly on lack of distinction between neurologic and non-neurologic patients. CONCLUSION: We identified accurate items considered as essential for preoperative information to patients before bladder wall injection of botulinum toxin A (Botox®) by a Delphi method recommended by HAS.

[Efficacy and safety of flibanserin "new female Viagra®?": Literature review]. / Efficacité et sécurité de la flibansérine « nouveau Viagra® féminin ? ¼ : revue de la littérature.

INTRODUCTION: In August 2015, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Addyi® (flibanserin) for treatment of acquired, generalized hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in pre-menopausal women. We carried out a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of the drug in women with HSDD. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A systematic literature review from the PubMed database search was carried out until April 2016 using the following keywords: "HSDD", "flibanserin", "sexual desire" and "ransomised controlled trial". RESULTS: We found four randomized double-blind control studies and two meta-analyzes and literature reviews. For the comparison of flibanserin with placebo, the results were reported in standardized mean difference (SMD). Regarding the main criterion "Satisfactory Sexual Event" (SSE), SMD was ranged from 0.49 to 1 (P<0.05); "Desire Sexual Score" SMD was ranged from 1.63 to 2.20 (P<0.05). For the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) desire domain score SMD was ranged from 0.03 to 0.4 (P<0.05). Adverse effects were mostly minor: dizziness and drowsiness. CONCLUSION: Flibanserin showed a moderate benefit in terms of frequency of sex and patient satisfaction. The long-term safety of flibanserin is still poorly defined and scientific data concerning this drug are still few.

[Temporary urethral stents ALLIUM BUS "BULBAR URETHRAL STENT" for the treatment of detrusor sphincter dyssynergia]. / Intérêt des endoprothèses urétrales ALLIUM BUS « BULBAR URETHRAL STENT ¼ pour le traitement de la dyssynergie vésico-sphinctérienne.

INTRODUCTION: The temporary prosthetic sphincterotomy is a possible treatment for neurologic detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (DSD). The purpose of the study was to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the urethral stent (US) Temporary ALLIUM BUS "BULBAR URETHRAL STENT". PATIENTS AND METHODS: A prospective, non-comparative, single-center starting in 2015 was conducted. Were included patients over 18 years, with a neurologic DSD proved urodynamically for which medical treatment was not indicated or failed. The primary endpoint was the percentage of patients who had a voiding method considered as improved or much improved at 1 month and the feasibility of the procedure. RESULTS: From January to June 2015, 7 patients, (mean age 47.9 years [24-76 years]) were prospectively enrolled. One patient was lost to sight at one month and therefore excluded. The median follow-up was 8.1 months (1-10 months). All procedures were technically successful. At 1 month, there were 57% of grade 2 complications (Clavien-Dindo), 1 of 6 patients had a migration of the US. At one month, quality of life and the urologic situation was considered good in 3 patients, unchanged in 2 patients and decreased in 1 patient. The study was stopped after the inclusion of seven patients. At the date of the latest news, 5 of 6 patients had a migrated or an explanted US. CONCLUSION: The temporary urethral stent ALLIUM BUS does not seem to be a possible surgical alternative for the treatment of detrusor sphincter dyssynergia. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.
