    Abstract Background: To compare the efficacy and safety of bipolar transurethral vaporization of the prostate (B-TUVP) with holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) for moderate [prostate volume (PV) 30-80 ml] and large (≥ 80 ml) benign prostatic enlargement (BPE).
    Materials and methods: Male patients with lower urinary tract symptom (LUTS) or urinary retention who underwent B-TUVP or HoLEP treatment in two regional centers were respectively enrolled. Patient characteristics and treatment outcomes were retrospectively compared between B-TUVP and HoLEP.
    Results: In patients with moderate and large prostate volume,B-TUVP showed shorter operative time (P < 0.001) and less hemoglobin decrease (P < 0.001) than in HoLEP. In uncatheterised patients, voiding symptoms and patients' quality of life improved after B-TUVP and HoLEP, but these improvement rates were consistently bigger in HoLEP than in B-TUVP. In catheterised patients, the rate of achieving catheter-free status after surgery was higher in HoLEP than in B-TUVP for patients with PV > 80 ml.(P < 0.001) The incidence of postoperative fever was higher in B-TUVP than in HoLEP for patients with PV 30-80 ml (P < 0.001) but not for those with PV > 80 ml.(P=0.08) The Incidence of postoperative stress incontinence(SUI) was higher in HoLEP than in B-TUVP for patients with moderate and large prostate volume.
    Conclusions: There are few studies that investigated the short-term efficacy and safety of second-generation B-TUVP in comparison with HoLEP for moderate and large BPE. Improvement in LUTS and achievement of catheter-free status were predominant in HoLEP, and these outcomes were more prominent in patients with large BPE of PV > 80 ml. However, B-TUVP resulted in less blood loss, shorter operative duration, and less SUI suggesting that B-TUVP is also well-tolerated surgical modality.

    Abstract Urgent scrotal exploration is performed for segmental testicular infarction (STI) because malignant testicular tumors cannot be ruled out even when STI is suspected on color Doppler ultrasound (US). This report describes the case of a 14-year-old boy who was successfully diagnosed with STI associated with epididymitis using color Doppler US to avoid radical orchiectomy. To our knowledge, this is the first report of STI being diagnosed during puberty and managed using color Doppler US and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging-guided conservative treatment.

    Abstract Ureterocele prolapse, an unusual but distinctive finding, may cause voiding difficulty. A 6-year-old male patient was referred to our hospital after his mother discovered that he tapped his lower abdomen when his urinary stream was interrupted during voiding. Voiding cystourethrography indicated a ureterocele prolapse causing the intermittency of voiding; therefore, transvesicoscopic ureteral reimplantation with ureterocelectomy was performed and the voiding consequently improved. However, this condition would not have been diagnosed had the unusual voiding behavior gone unnoticed. Therefore, diagnosing congenital bladder obstructions could be challenging if a patient adapts to a voiding difficulty.

    Abstract A passive treatment process using sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) is known to be effective in removing heavy metals from acid mine drainage (AMD), though there has been little discussion of the mechanism involved to date. In this work, a sulfate-reducing column test was carried out using supplementary ethanol as an electron donor for microorganisms, and the reaction mechanism was examined using geochemical modeling and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) analysis. The results showed that Cu was readily removed from the AMD on the top surface of the column (0-0.2 m), while Zn and Cd depletion was initiated in the middle of the column (0.2-0.4 m), where sulfide formation by SRB became noticeable. Calculations by a developed geochemical model suggested that ethanol decomposition by aerobic microbes contributed to the reduction of Cu, while sulfide produced by SRB was the major cause of Zn and Cd removal. XAFS analysis of column residue detected ZnS, ZnSO

    Abstract Introduction: Ureteropelvic junction obstruction is often associated with renal calculus formation. However, there is no report of using robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty combined with percutaneous endoscopic surgery for ureteropelvic junction obstruction and renal calculi in a partial duplex system.
    Case presentation: A 19-year-old female patient with lower moiety ureteropelvic junction obstruction and renal calculi in a partial duplex system was referred to our hospital because of left lumbar pain, left acute pyelonephritis, and an increase in left renal calculi during follow-up at the referral hospital. To prevent the complication of percutaneous nephrolithotripsy following pyeloplasty, robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty combined with percutaneous endoscopic surgery was performed. Two years after surgery, the patient reported no left lumbar pain.
    Conclusion: The combination of robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty and percutaneous endoscopic surgery can be proposed as a safe and less-invasive treatment option for ureteropelvic junction obstruction and renal calculi in a partial duplex system.

    Abstract A 52-year-old man was referred to our hospital for evaluation of painless right scrotal swelling persisting for 3 months. Palpation detected swelling and induration centered on the head of the upper epididymis, and ultrasonography revealed a blood-filled nodular mass at the same site continuing to the spermatic cord. No abnormalities were observed in the bilateral testes. Blood tests were negative for tumor markers such as α fetoprotein and human chorionic gonadotropin-β. Right radical inguinal orchiectomy was performed, and the pathological diagnosis was dedifferentiated liposarcoma of the spermatic cord. Although the spermatic cord stump was negative, the peri-spermatic cord stump, which had an exfoliated surface, was positive. No residual tumor was found on magnetic resonance imaging, but the tumor was suspected to remain. Thus, after approximately 1month, the tissue around the spermatic cord was resected. Eight months after the initial operation, no recurrence was observed. Here, we report a case of dedifferentiated liposarcoma of the spermatic cord, which is relatively rare, and review the related literature.

    Abstract An asymmetric Michael reaction of malononitrile and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes catalyzed by a diarylprolinol silyl ether was developed. Michael products were obtained in good yields and with excellent enantioselectivities without the formation of overreaction products. As a malononitrile moiety can be transformed into an alkoxy or amino carbonyl moiety by oxidative transformation, α-chiral esters or amides with all-carbon quaternary centers can be synthesized with excellent enantioselectivities.

    Abstract Bone morphogenetic protein 10 (BMP10), is a member of the transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) superfamily. Although BMP10 plays pivotal roles during development, including vascular development and cardiogenesis, little information is available for BMP10 expression in the central nervous system (CNS). We, thus, investigated BMP10 expression in the adult rat CNS using immunohistochemistry. BMP10 was intensely expressed in most neurons and their axons. Furthermore, we found that astrocytes and ependymal cells also express BMP10 protein. These data indicate that BMP10 is widely expressed throughout the adult CNS, and this abundant expression strongly supports the idea that BMP10 also plays important roles in the adult CNS.
