    Abstract Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) has been shown to achieve excellent oncological outcomes with a low rate of complications in patients with prostate cancer. However, data on RARP in renal transplant recipients (RT) are dispersed. A literature search was conducted through April 2023 using PubMed/Medline, Embase and Web of Science databases. The primary aim was to evaluate the safety, oncologic and clinical outcomes of RARP in RT recipients. The secondary aim was to identify surgical technique modifications required to avoid iatrogenic damage to the transplanted kidney. A total of 18 studies comprising 186 patients met the inclusion criteria. Age at the time of treatment ranged 43-79 years. Biopsy results showed a high prevalence of low- and intermediate-risk disease. Operative time ranged between 108.3 and 400 mins, while estimated blood loss ranged from 30 to 630 mL. Length of hospital stay ranged from 3 to 6 days whereas duration of catheterization was between 5 and 18 days. Perioperative complication rate was 17.1%. Overall positive surgical margin rate was 24.19%, while biochemical recurrence was observed in 10.21% (19/186 patients). Modifications to the standard surgical technique were described in 13/18 studies. Modifications in port placement were described in 7/13 studies and performed in 19/88 (21.6%) patients. Surgical technique for the development of the Retzius space was reported in 13/18 studies. Data on lymphadenectomy were reported in 15/18 studies. Bilateral lymphadenectomy was described in 3/18 studies and performed in 4/89 (4.5%) patients; contralateral lymphadenectomy was reported in 7/18 studies and performed in 41/125 (32.8%) patients. RARP in RTRs can be considered relatively safe and feasible. Oncological results yielded significantly worse outcomes in terms of PSM and BCR rate compared to the data available in the published studies, with an overall complication rate highly variable among the studies included. On the other hand, low graft damage during the procedure was observed. Main criticisms came from different tumor screening protocols and scarce information about lymphadenectomy techniques and outcomes among the included studies.

    Abstract The iliac fossa is the most commonly used site to place the graft in renal transplantation in adults. However, iliac fossa may not be used in various conditions. Thus, orthotopic renal transplantation becomes a viable alternative for these selected patients. Given the technically challenging surgery and limited number of patients, data on the long-term outcomes on this regard are scarce. This narrative review serves as an update on the clinical outcomes after orthotopic renal transplantation, focusing on overall recipient survival and renal graft survival, as well as postoperative complications. We found that studies to date showed a comparable survival rate in both recipients and renal grafts in the postoperative follow-up period after orthotopic renal transplantation with a lower complication rate compared to the published data on heterotopic renal transplantation. The results of our review may encourage transplant centers to reevaluate their policies to consider orthotopic renal transplantation as an alternative technique in cases where heterotopic kidney transplantation is not possible.

    Abstract Purpose Chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) is permanent pelvic pain of unknown etiology. Current theories suggest a multifactorial origin for CPPS, including urinary pathologies, psychosocial factors, prostate inflammation, infection, central sensitization of the nervous system, and muscular contractures or fibrosis. As there are no defined treatment protocols for CPPS, a multimodal approach is recommended. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of a manual therapy treatment protocol on pain, urinary symptoms, and overall quality of life. Materials and Methods Twenty-three men aged 47.36 ± 10.11 years were recruited consecutively by urologists practicing at two hospitals. All men presented prostatic tenderness with no other positive clinical history, urine cultures, or echography studies. Patients underwent six manual therapy sessions (three during the first week and three every two weeks after that) performed by a single osteopath or physiotherapist. The intervention protocol addressed the treatment of muscle structures, fascial mechanics, vascularization, innervation, emotional factors, and the need for information. The questionnaires used to evaluate outcomes included the National Institutes of Health Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIH-CPSI), the International Prostate Symptoms Score (IPSS), and a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Data were evaluated using Chi-squared or paired difference tests by an external researcher. Results The mean NIH-CPSI scores recorded for our study cohort decreased by 7.69 points (30.92%;

    Abstract Due to their immunosuppressed status, solid organ transplant recipients are a special group of patients with an incidence of bladder cancer greater than the rest of the population, especially in the first 6 years after transplantation. Also, treatment with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin, a reference therapy in nonmuscle invasive high-risk bladder cancer, may be less effective in this group of patients and could cause more adverse effects. However, the data published so far and the experience initiated in the Virgen de la Arrixaca Clinical University Hospital do not support these hypotheses.

    Abstract Background: Metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) treatment has changed drastically during the last years with the emergence of androgen receptor-targeted agents (ARTAs). ARTA combined with androgen deprivation therapy has demonstrated better oncological and survival outcomes in these patients. However, the optimal choice among different ARTAs remains uncertain due to their analogous efficacy.
    Objectives: The objective of this study was to describe prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response and oncological outcomes of patients with mHSPC treated with apalutamide.
    Material and methods: Medical records from three different hospitals in Spain were used to conduct this study. Patients diagnosed with mHSPC and under apalutamide treatment were included between March 2021 and January 2023. Data regarding PSA response, overall survival (OS), and radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) were collected and stratified by metastasis volume, timing, and stating.
    Results: 193 patients were included; 34.2% of patients were
    Conclusion: This real-world study on patients with mHSPC treated with apalutamide plus androgen deprivation therapy revealed robust oncological outcomes, aligning with the emerging evidence. The study's hallmark finding highlights the significance of rapid and deep PSA response as a predictor of improved oncological and survival outcomes.
