How I Do It: Teaching holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP)
Can J Urol. 2024 Apr;31(2):11848-11853.ABSTRACTHolmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is considered a size-independent technique to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia. This safe and effective procedure is increasingly being adopted in urology training programs worldwide, yet limited teaching strategies have been described. Endoscopic handling during HoLEP allows for a simultaneous interaction between the surgeon and trainee, facilitating a guided teaching strategy with increasing difficulty as experience grows. In this article, we describe our stepwise approach for teaching HoLEP as part of a structured surgical...

Hand, foot, and mouth disease presenting with a testicular mass in an adult
We present a case of a testicular mass in an adult patient in the setting of recent hand, foot, and mouth disease that was managed conservatively with serial ultrasounds. Even though cases of viral-associated testicular masses are rare, this differential diagnosis should be considered in patients with a new testicular mass in the setting of recent viral infection and negative tumor markers. For these patients, observation may be an option instead of immediate orchiectomy.PMID:38642464 (Source: Canadian Journal of Urology)

Preoperative aspirin and anticoagulants do not affect partial nephrectomy bleeding
CONCLUSIONS: No difference in complication rate of partial nephrectomy was determined to be solely due to prior use of anticoagulation or aspirin use alone with appropriate cessation of anticoagulation preoperatively. Overall, patients on anticoagulation are not at a higher risk of intraoperative or postoperative bleeding complications when undergoing partial nephrectomy.PMID:38642461 (Source: Canadian Journal of Urology)

Optimizing outcomes in men with prostate cancer: the cardiovascular event lowering (CaELo) pathways
CONCLUSIONS: Prostate cancer patients receiving ADT with or without ATT need to be more zealously assessed for prevention and aggressively managed to reduce cardiovascular events. This can and should include participation from the entire multidisciplinary healthcare team.PMID:38642459 (Source: Canadian Journal of Urology)
