Coronavirus-19 infection in kidney transplant recipients: A comprehensive review
Gina DeFelice, Adarsh VijayIndian Journal of Urology 2022 38(2):110-114The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted health care across the globe. Since the beginning of the pandemic, there have been substantial changes in the approach toward kidney transplantation and management of the virus in transplant recipients. Chronic immunosuppression and comorbidities in renal transplant recipients place them at risk during the pandemic. Data on the risk factors, presentation, and management of kidney transplant patients have become more robust over time. Relevant data on this topic was procured and synthesized with the aid of a comprehens...

Potential of nuclear magnetic resonance metabolomics in the study of prostate cancer
R Ravikanth Reddy, Naranamangalam R JagannathanIndian Journal of Urology 2022 38(2):99-109Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) metabolomics is a powerful analytical technique and a tool which has unique characteristics and capabilities for the evaluation of a number of biochemicals/metabolites of cancer and other disease processes that are present in biofluids (urine and blood) and tissues. The potential of NMR metabolomics in prostate cancer (PCa) has been explored by researchers and its usefulness has been documented. A large number of metabolites such as citrate, choline, and sarcosine were detected by NMR metabolomics from...

Pelvic lymph node dissection alone versus adjuvant radiotherapy in node positive penile cancer: A systematic review
Conclusions: There is insufficient evidence to recommend the use of adjuvant RT following PLND in penile cancer patients. The quality of evidence is low due to the retrospective design and high risk of bias. Randomized clinical trials are required to assess the efficacy and safety of adjuvant RT and PLND.

Ultrasound-guided supine mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy in ectopic pelvic kidney
We report a case of ultrasound-guided supine mini-PCNL in ectopic pelvic kidney in an adolescent female. Complete stone clearance was achieved with an uneventful postoperative period. Ultrasound-guided supine mini-PCNL is safe and effective treatment option for the management of calculus in the ectopic pelvic kidney. The risk of injury to surrounding structures associated with ultrasound modality of access can be avoided with proper case selection and careful technique. (Source: Indian Journal of Urology)

Superselective angioembolization in posttraumatic pseudoaneurysm of corpora cavernosa presenting as acute urinary retention
We report a 47-year-old gentleman who presented with acute urinary retention. Doppler ultrasound revealed pseudoaneurysm of corpora cavernosa at bulbar urethra region with 2 feeder vessels with turbulent flow inside. Selective internal pudendal artery angiogram was done and two feeder arteries from bilateral pudendal arteries were confirmed. Trans perineal thrombin & fibrinogen instillation and selective coil embolization of left internal pudendal artery were done, leading to complete obliteration of pseudoaneurysm and alleviation of patient's symptoms.

Timing of intraoperative crystalloid infusion may decrease total volume of infusate without affecting early graft function in live related renal transplant surgery: A randomized, surgeon-blinded clinical study
Conclusion: Targeted hydration significantly decreases the total amount of fluid infused during the intraoperative period without altering early graft function. Targeted hydration during vascular anastomosis produced stable hemodynamics and early diuresis without any side-effects pertaining to hypo or hyper-volemia. Clinical trial identifier number-CTRI/2016/07/007111. (Source: Indian Journal of Urology)
