To evaluate the clinical advantages and risks of upper calyx puncture (UCP) for renal stones in patients undergoing mini-endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery (mini-ECIRS).

Laparoscopic adrenal surgery has become a common procedure for some adrenal diseases. The necessity of surgery-related tubes, such as abdominal drainage tubes, urinary catheters and endotracheal tubes, is controversial. These devices may induce regional tissue inflammation and cause discomfort. In this study, we evaluated the safety and the feasibility of "Totally No Tube (TNT)" transperitoneal laparoscopic technique in adrenal surgery.

Urodynamic studies are essential for diagnosing lower urinary tract dysfunction but are expert-dependent and time-consuming. Artificial intelligence (AI), notably machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) may help automate and standardize interpretation, reducing inter-observer variability and improving efficiency.

Optimizing overactive bladder (OAB) management has the potential to improve quality of life. We sought to determine whether bilateral was more effective than unilateral Percutaneuous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (PTNS) at improving OAB symptoms.

To evaluate patient adherence to prescribed medical therapy for urolithiasis following multidisciplinary consultation in a specialized stone clinic.

This study aimed to evaluate anatomical and intraoperative risk factors predicting complications following distal hypospadias repair with foreskin reconstruction in pediatric patients.

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is traditionally explained by longitudinal overstretching of the external urethral sphincter (EUS) during enucleation. We propose extreme radial forces exerted on the EUS as a novel mechanism for post-HoLEP SUI.

Radical prostatectomy (RP) following previous transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is technically challenging due to an altered anatomy and fibrosis, often resulting in impaired functional outcomes. Open and anterior robotic approaches (aRARP) were evaluated in this setting, while data on Retzius-sparing robotic radical prostatectomy (rsRARP) is lacking. We aim to compare urinary continence, complications, and oncologic control between rsRARP and aRARP in patients with prior TURP.
