PURPOSE: Ureteral stents are widely used following ureteroscopy (URS), yet several aspects of their management remain non-standardized despite contemporary EAU and AUA guideline recommendations. This study evaluated contemporary international practices and identified gaps in ureteral stent use among endourologists. ME…

Villous adenoma (VA) of the renal pelvis is a rare intestinal epithelial neoplasm. It generally arises in elderly men and is frequently associated with chronic irritation, infection, or long-standing obstruction, most often due to nephrolithiasis or hydronephrosis. We report four previously unpublished patients diagno…

Objective: To evaluate whether vulvar re-antisepsis before carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) cystoscopy after laparoscopic hysterectomy is associated with a lower incidence of postoperative urinary tract infection (UTI). Materials and Methods:This prospective observational study included 98 women who underwent laparoscopic hyste…

BACKGROUND: Routine ureteral stenting after flexible ureterorenoscopy (F-URS) remains controversial. While stents are used to secure drainage, their impact on subclinical renal tubular injury is not well defined. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of postoperative Double-J (DJ) stenting on acute and subacute rena…

A BSTRACT Hypospadias is one of the most common congenital anomalies of the male urethra, with urethrocutaneous fistula (UCF) being its most common postoperative complication. An interposition tissue layer is often used between the neourethra and skin to reduce the incidence of UCF. Dartos flap (DF) has traditionally…

Ureteral injury during advanced gynecologic laparoscopic procedures is an uncommon but potentially serious complication, particularly during para-aortic lymphadenectomy performed for oncologic staging. We describe the laparoscopic management of a proximal right ureteral transection encountered during transperitoneal p…
