Comparison of single-step renal dilatation and serial renal dilatation in percutaneous nephrolithotomy: A retrospective case & #8211;control study
Conclusion: Operative duration and rate of radiation exposure are significantly less in PCNL by single-step renal dilatation; however, there is no statistically significant difference in the rates of other complications. (Source: Urology Annals)

Evaluation of the urology residency training program in Saudi Arabia: A cross-sectional study
Conclusion: Our results confirmed that satisfaction of residents with the urology program process is variable according to the city of training. Having high satisfaction level in some cities reflects the improvement of urology training program after restructuring. We identified new areas in need of improvement, namely lack of mentorship, clear and formal assessment process, and variation of training process between central and peripheral programs.

The accuracy of computed tomography in the diagnosis of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma in correlation with the final histopathology: A retrospective study in 275 patients at a Tertiary Urology Institute
Conclusion: In our cohort, CT/ CTU has a high overall accuracy (97%) in diagnosing UTUC, capability to well visualize tumors of distal ureter and renal pelvis, but could miss calyceal tumors. The matter to rely only on CT without ureteroscopic biopsy in the diagnosis of UTUC especially if radical surgery is planned needs further prospective studies. (Source: Urology Annals)

Empirical therapy for male factor infertility: Survey of the current practice
Conclusion: Empirical therapy was used by more than three-quarters of the participants for idiopathic male infertility. There were no clear guidelines for the ideal therapy to be considered for individual patients while treating empirically. Our concern is that urologists use a wide variety of medications without significant data to support these medications. (Source: Urology Annals)

Post-transurethral resection of prostate urethral strictures: Are they often underreported ? A single-center retrospective observational cohort study
Conclusions: TURP is one of the common surgical procedures performed by urologists. Meatitis and meatal stenosis, if included as complications of TURP, would increase the overall incidence of PTS. Factors such as the size of resectoscope sheath used, size of catheter inserted, placement of Salvaris swab traction, and preoperative calibration of urethra have a significant impact on the ultimate outcome.

Is radical cystectomy an overtreatment for T1 high-grade transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder ? Lesson learnt from case series
We present a series of three cases of disease progression despite the confirmed pathologic local staging of the bladder cancer to be nonmuscle disease. The message we would like to address from this review is that radical cystectomy is not an overtreatment of this potentially lethal disease. (Source: Urology Annals)

Bladder endocervicosis: Recurrent presentations during pregnancy
We report the case of a 29-year-old woman who presented with bladder endocervicosis during her first pregnancy with recurrence during her second pregnancy. On both occasions, the patient was treated with transurethral resection and the lesion recurred. This is the first case in the literature of bladder endocervicosis presenting during pregnancy and suggests a hormonal stimulus is important in its development. (Source: Urology Annals)

Renal cell carcinoma in a duplex kidney in pediatric
Naif Alqarni, Awatif Alanazi, Abdulmohsin Afaddagh, Samir Eldahshan, Mohammed Alshayie, Ahmad AlshammariUrology Annals 2021 13(3):320-322
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in children is relatively uncommon, especially in the absence of syndromes or hereditary diseases. Duplex kidney – as a common congenital anomalies in children – is usually insignificant with no serious impact or known risk of tumor association. Herein, we report a 5-year-old girl who presented with gross hematuria and a right renal mass in duplex system identified on computed tomography. Radical nephrectomy was performed; the patient...
