Purpose: The etiology of lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (LUTS/BPH) remains uncertain. The purpose of our study was to quantitatively analyze pelvic anatomic characteristics on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to assess for independent factors for symptoms.
*Methods and Materials: This retrospective single-institution study evaluated treatment-naïve men who underwent prostate MRI within 3 months of International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) from June 2021 to February 2022. Factors measured on MRI included: detrusor muscular ring surrounding the bladder neck measured as area and alternatively diameter, central gland (CG) mean apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), levator hiatus (LH) volume, intrapelvic …

Introduction & Objectives: Emergency department (ED) visits and readmissions are often used metrics of quality care provided to surgical patients and important contributors to healthcare costs and utilization. We evaluate post-operative ED visits and readmissions after partial (PN) and radical (RN) nephrectomy in the MUSIC-KIDNEY registry to identify potentially preventable events and develop prevention strategies. Materials & Methods: Data abstractors recorded clinical, radiographic, pathologic, and follow-up data for patients with newly diagnosed clinical T1 renal masses (cT1RM) at 16 MUSIC practices with >90 physicians. All charts associated with 30-day ED visits and readmissions since the inception of MUSIC-KIDNEY (6/2017) were …
