Antibiotic resistance in patients undergoing serial prostate biopsies: risk factors and impact on clinical outcomes
CONCLUSIONS: Serial exposure to standard antibiotic prophylaxis for PBx and associated procedures can lead to development of ciprofloxacin resistance after each subsequent exposure. This carries important implications for serial biopsy and highlights the role for RCx prior to repeat biopsy.PMID:38401255 (Source: Canadian Journal of Urology)

Grant funding among underrepresented minority and women urologists at academic institutions
CONCLUSIONS: NIH grants were more likely awarded to higher ranked faculty from higher Doximity ranked institutions with no differences based on URiM status or gender.PMID:38401257 (Source: Canadian Journal of Urology)

Partial gland ablation with high intensity focal ultrasound impact on genito-urinary function and quality of life: our initial experience
CONCLUSIONS: In this initial cohort of PGA-HIFU men at our institution, patients demonstrated a slight, but transient, deterioration in urinary and erectile function at 1 month prior to normalization. All QoL metrics showed no impact upon 1 year of follow up post-treatment.PMID:38401258 (Source: Canadian Journal of Urology)

A combined MRI-PSAD risk stratification system for prioritizing prostate biopsies
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that a three-tier risk classification system based on mpMRI and PSAD can identify patients at high-risk for CSPC who may benefit from earlier biopsy.PMID:38401259 (Source: Canadian Journal of Urology)

Use of the Schelin Catheter for transurethral intraprostatic anesthesia prior to Rez ūm treatment
Can J Urol. 2024 Feb;31(1):11802-11808.ABSTRACTMinimally invasive surgery techniques (MIST) have become newly adopted in urological care. Given this, new analgesic techniques are important in optimizing patient outcomes and resource management. Rezūm treatment (RT) for BPH has emerged as a new MIST with excellent patient outcomes, including improving quality of life (QoL) and International Prostate Symptom Scores (IPSSs), while also preserving sexual function. Currently, the standard analgesic approach for RT involves a peri-prostatic nerve block (PNB) using a transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) or systemic sedation anesthesia....

Mullerianosis of the urinary bladder: a case report
Can J Urol. 2024 Feb;31(1):11809-11812.ABSTRACTMullerianosis is a rare, complex, benign tumor most commonly found in the bladder and often mistaken for a neoplastic lesion. Herein, we report a case of mullerianosis in a 65-year-old woman who presented with an incidental 2 cm bladder mass found on cross-sectional imaging. A mixed cystic and solid tumor was identified on cystoscopy and a transurethral resection of the suspected tumor was performed with histopathology confirming a final diagnosis of mullerianosis. While an unusual diagnosis, mullerianosis of the urinary bladder needs to be correctly identified to provide appr...
