Abstract	Purpose: To investigate the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of magnetic compression anastomosis of benign short-segment ureteral obstruction. Materials and methods: Patients referred for failure of ureteral double-J stent placement because of impassable benign ureteral obstruction were included. Eleven patients (11 ureters) with a mean age of 57.5 years (range, 19-85 years; 8 women) underwent ureteral magnetic compression anastomosis. All patients had indwelling nephrostomy catheters. In all patients, anterograde and retrograde ureteral stent placements were unsuccessful using either interventional or cystoscopic access. Ureteral magnetic compression anastomosis was performed as a 2-step procedure. In the first step, magnets were placed. In the second step, the stricture was traversed via magnetic compression anastomosis. Successful establishment of anastomosis and ureteral double-J stent placement were considered technical success. The mean time for complete magnetic adherence and fluoroscopy time for each procedure were recorded. Results: Five patients (45%) had an ileal conduit. The technical success rate was 91% (n = 10/11). The mean time for magnetic adherence was 5.7 days (SD ± 1.3). The mean single-rotation fluoroscopy times during the first and second steps of the procedure were 9.45 minutes (SD ± 2.09) and 15.70 minutes (SD ± 2.62), respectively. Magnets were removed with the support of either balloon catheters (n = 9) or biopsy forceps (n = 2). No procedure-related adverse events occurred. Conclusions: Magnetic compression anastomosis of benign ureteral obstruction is feasible and safe and can be performed in an interventional radiology (IR) suite without the need for endoscopy.

Abstract	Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility of a new technique for imaging-guided de novo retrograde ureteral double J (DJ) stent placement without cystoscopy in women. Materials and methods: Eighty-four women referred for ureteral stent placement between April 2019 and January 2022 were included. In all the patients, the initial attempt for stent placement was performed in a retrograde fashion. Successful ureteral catheterization and DJ stent placement were considered as technical success. The fluoroscopy time required to catheterize the ureter and that for the entire procedure were recorded. Factors affecting the technical success rate and fluoroscopy time were examined. Results: A total of 108 ureteral stent placement procedures in 84 women, with a mean age of 57.5 years (range, 19-85 years), were performed. The most common underlying pathologies were cervical (n = 33, 31%) and ovarian (n = 32, 30%) carcinomas. The most commonly involved segments of the ureter were the lower half (n = 44, 40%) and trigone (n = 39, 36%). The technical success rate was 81.5%, and it reached 93% in the case of lower-half ureteral obstruction. Distorted trigonal anatomy caused by external compression of the bladder wall by a mass was associated with a higher rate of technical failure (90.6% vs 47.8%; P < .001). The use of ultrasound guidance to guide the sheath to the ureteral orifice allowed for a significant decrease in the fluoroscopy time for ureteral catheterization (4.6 minutes ± 3.91 vs 2.26 minutes ± 2.32; P = .003) and that for the entire procedure (9.42 minutes ± 4.95 vs 5.93 minutes ± 4.06; P = .001). Conclusions: Imaging-guided de novo retrograde ureteral catheterization and stent placement can be successfully performed in a high percentage of patients within a reasonable fluoroscopy time without the need for cystoscopy in women.

Abstract	Background: Hydatid cyst is an endemic zoonotic infection that annual incidence ranges from <1 to 200 per 100,000 individuals. The most common complication of hepatic hydatid cyst reported is rupture of the cysts, most commonly intrabiliary rupture. Direct rupture to hollow visceral organs is rarely seen. We describe here an unusual cystogastric fistula in a patient with liver hydatid cyst. Case presentation: The 55-year-old male patient presented with right upper quadrant abdominal pain. After radiological imaging studies, the diagnose was of hydatid cyst involving the left lateral segment of the liver ruptured into the gastric lumen and resulted in a cystogastric fistula. Gastroscopy revealed that the cyst and its contents protruding from anterior wall to the gastric lumen. Partial pericystectomy and omentopexy were performed and the gastric wall was primarily repaired. There were no complications in the postoperative period and 3-month follow up. Conclusion: This case, to our knowledge, is the first reported case of cystogastric fistula surgically treated in a patient with liver hydatid cyst in the literature. Our clinical experience shows that, although it is a benign disease, complicated hydatid cysts should be evaluated in detail preoperatively, and after the detailed diagnostic work-up, surgical therapy might be planned individually for each case. Key words: Cysto-gastric fistula, Hydatid Cyst, Liver hydatidosis.

Abstract	Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the placement and exchange of tandem ureteral stents (TUS) under fluoroscopic guidance in the management of indwelling single double-J stent (DJS) failure in patients with malignant ureteral obstruction. We also aimed to investigate whether the generally accepted exchange period of DJSs could be extended using TUS. Methods: This retrospective study involved 11 patients (10 female) with an age range of 27-64 years, median of 49 years, who underwent TUS (ipsilateral two 8F DJSs) placement due to indwelling single DJS failure occurring in less than 3 months. TUS exchanges were performed initially at 6-month intervals, and subsequent exchange intervals were extended to 9 and 12 months for seven patients. The interval from initial TUS placement to percutaneous nephrostomy, repeat exchange, or death was defined as the duration of stent patency. Results: Indwelling single DJS failure occurred during a median follow-up of 45 days (range, 35-60 days) in 14 ureters of 11 patients. TUS were successfully placed and exchanged with a technical success rate of 100% without any early major complications. Thirty-nine procedures (11 placement and 28 exchange procedures) in 55 ureters were performed. The median duration of urinary patency was significantly higher with TUS [300 days (range, 60-440 days)] compared with single DJSs [45 days (range, 35-60 days)] ( Conclusion: The placement and exchange of TUS can be safely and effectively performed under fluoroscopic guidance. The need for frequent DJS exchange could be reduced with increased duration of stent patency using TUS.

Abstract	Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of interventional radiological (IR) procedures in iatrogenic urinary tract injury and investigate the factors affecting the outcome. Methods: Fifty-eight patients (21 male) with a mean age of 50.3 ± 15.8 years referred for iatrogenic urinary tract injury were enrolled in this study. Technical success was defined as (i) successful placement of a nephrostomy catheter within the renal pelvis and/or (ii) successful antegrade ureteral stent placement (double J stent) between the renal pelvis and bladder lumen. Complete resolution was defined as maintained ureteral patency without an external drain and ureteral stent. The factors that may affect complete resolution [ureteral avulsion, ureterovaginal fistula (UVF), history of malignancy/radiotherapy, and time to IR management] were also investigated. The receiver operating characteristic analysis was performed to estimate the cut-off time point for the IR management timing affecting complete resolution. Results: The technical success rate for nephrostomy and ureteral stent placement was 100% (n = 58/58) and 78% (n = 28/36), respectively. In 14 patients, non-dilated pelvicalyceal systems were evident. In 18 patients, no further intervention after percutaneous nephrostomy was performed due to (i) poor performance status (n = 6) and (ii) reconstruction surgery upon clinicians' and/or patients' request (n = 12). Reconstruction surgery was required in 11 of the remaining 40 patients due to failure of percutaneous treatment (n = 11/40, 27.5%). In six of the patients, ureteral stents could not be removed due to the development of benign ureteral strictures (n = 6/40, 15%). Our complete resolution rate was 57.5% (n = 23/40). Age, gender, type of surgery (endoscopic or open), side and location of the injury did not statistically affect the complete resolution rate. The presence of ureteral avulsion, history of malignancy and radiotherapy individually or in combination significantly affected the complete resolution rate negatively. The presence of UVF also had a negative effect on the complete resolution rate; however, it did not reach statistical significance. Delayed intervention was also a significant factor related to lower complete resolution. The optimal cut-off point of the time interval for favorable clinical outcome was found to be 0-19 Conclusion: IR procedures are safe and effective in the management of iatrogenic urinary tract injuries. Antegrade ureteral stenting should be performed as soon as possible to establish ureteral integrity without the development of stricture.

Abstract	Background: To determine the long-term outcomes of radiofrequency ablation with respect to overall survival, disease-free survival, and complications in patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases. Additionally, we sought to examine whether various patient- and treatment-related characteristics were associated with prognosis. Methods: Fifty-nine patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases who had undergone percutaneous radiofrequency ablation treatment were included in this study. A total of 138 lesions were treated with radiofrequency ablation in the first and second sessions. Tumor diameters ranged from 10 to 60 mm (mean, 2.45 mm). Treatment efficacy, complications, and overall survival and disease-free survival were analyzed. Results: The primary success rate of radiofrequency ablation was 94.4%. At the end of the first month, the residual disease was detected in 12 lesions, 10 of which underwent secondary radiofrequency ablation treatment, resulting in a cumulative secondary success rate of 98.4%. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival rates in 59 patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases were 94.9%, 52.5%, and 40.6%, respectively. The median survival was 42 months in patients with metastasis size of ≤3 cm, while it was 25 months in patients with metastasis size of >3 cm (P = .001). The 1-, 3-, and 5-year disease-free survival rates were 44%, 10.2%, and 6.7%, respectively. Metastatic tumor status (solitary or multiple) was a significant prognostic factor in determining overall survival and disease-free survival; furthermore, extrahepatic recurrence during follow-up was a prognostic factor affecting overall survival. Minor complications developed in four radiofrequency ablation procedures (6.7%). Conclusion: Radiofrequency ablation remains a safe and effective treatment option improving survival in select cases of colorectal cancer liver metastases.

Abstract	Cystic Echinococcosis (CE) is a zoonotic infection caused by the larval form of Echinococcus granulosus in humans. Emerging evidence suggests an intriguing inverse association between E. granulosus infection and the occurrence of cancer. This study aimed to investigate the influence of diverse host-derived hydatid cyst fluids (HCF) with distinct genotypes on human liver hepatocytes (HC) and hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2). Specifically, we examined their effects on cell proliferation, apoptosis sensitivity (BAX/BCL-2), apoptosis-related p53 expression, and the expression of cancer-related microRNA (hsa-miR-181b-3p). Cell proliferation assays, real-time PCR, and ELISA studies were conducted to evaluate potential anti-cancer properties. The findings revealed that animal-origin HCF (G1(A)) induced direct cell death by augmenting the susceptibility of HepG2 cells to apoptosis. Treatment with both G1(A) and G1(H) HCF sensitized HepG2 and HC cell lines to apoptosis by modulating the BAX/BCL-2 ratio, accompanied by upregulation of the p53 gene. Additionally, G1(A) HCF and human-derived HCFs (G1(H), G7(H)) reduced the expression of miR-181b-3p in HepG2 cells. Consequently, this study demonstrates the potential anti-cancer effect of HCF in HepG2 cells and provides the first comparative assessment of HCFs from human and animal sources with diverse genotypes, offering novel insights into this field.

Abstract	Purpose: To provide technical guidance on applying catheter-directed and needle-directed ethanol sclerotherapy for endometriomas and present the results of these sclerotherapy methods. Materials and methods: From January 2015 to March 2021, the results of the patients with symptomatic ovarian endometriomas who underwent needle-directed or catheter-directed sclerotherapy were evaluated, retrospectively. The decision to apply which sclerotherapy technique was made during the procedure for each patient considering the following factors: cyst size, cyst location, cyst viscosity, and tissue rigidity. Results: Both needle-directed (n = 34 cysts) and catheter-directed (n = 34 cysts) sclerotherapy techniques were effective, with a 100% technical success rate and a 97% clinical success rate. In two of 34 cysts (6%) treated with needle-directed sclerotherapy, recurrence was detected and successfully retreated with catheter-directed sclerotherapy. Significant reductions in cyst size, pain, and serum cancer antigen 125 levels (p < 0.05) were noted. Serum anti-Müllerian hormone levels remained unaffected, indicating preserved ovarian reserve (p > 0.05). Among those treated for infertility, the pregnancy rate was 54% (n = 6/11). The mean ± SD cyst size decline was greater in catheter-directed sclerotherapy than needle-directed sclerotherapy (5.5 ± 3.1 cm vs. 4.0 ± 2.1 cm, p < 0.05). However, the pretreatment cyst volumes were considerably higher in catheter-directed sclerotherapy group (202.0 ± 233.5 mL vs. 78.8 ± 59.7 mL, p < 0.05) and were associated with significant post-treatment volume decrease (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The choice between catheter-directed and needle-directed ethanol sclerotherapy should be determined during the procedure, with a preference for catheter-directed sclerotherapy when feasible. Crucial factors in making this decision include cyst size, cyst location, cyst viscosity, and tissue rigidity. Level of evidence Level 3, non-controlled retrospective cohort study.

Abstract	Cystic echinococcosis (CE) of the bone is a rare disease compared with CE of the viscera, and the most involved bony structures are the spine and the pelvis. Both the diagnosis and the treatment of bone CE are challenging for several reasons. The combination of surgery and antimicrobial therapy is the most common approach, the results are far from adequate. Luckily, percutaneous treatment has appeared on the horizon for bone lesions as a more practical option with fewer drawbacks in light of current reports. This article deals with the successful result of ablation-assisted percutaneous treatment of a bone CE lesion and a soft tissue CE lesion treated by modified catheterization technique in a male patient with left hip pain that was unresponsive to previous surgery for CE.
