Aggressive Renal Angiomyolipoma Of The Lipomatous Variant With Inferior Vena Cava Thrombus: A Case Report And Review Of The Literature, C. Fox, S. S. Salami, D. M. Moreira, G. S. Landis, D. Chan, O. Yaskiv, M. A. Vira

Journal Articles
Two variants of renal angiomyolipoma (AML)—classic and epithelioid—have been described. Although the epithelioid variant has been reported to demonstrate an aggressive clinical behavior, classic AML is usually benign. Herein, we report a case of a 42-year-old asymptomatic woman with a lipomatous variant of renal AML associated with an inferior vena cava thrombus managed with radical nephrectomy and caval thrombectomy.

Calyceal Diverticula: A Comprehensive Review, N. Waingankar, S. Hayek, A. D. Smith, Z. Okeke
Journal Articles
Calyceal diverticula are rare outpouchings of the upper collecting system that likely have a congenital origin. Stones can be found in up to 50% of calyceal diverticula, although, over the combined reported series, 96% of patients presented with stones. Diagnosis is best made by intravenous urography or computed tomography urogram. Shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) is an option for first-line therapy in patients with stone-bearing diverticula that have radiologically patent necks in mid- to upper-pole diverticula and small stone burdens. Stone-free rates are the lowest with SWL, although patients report being asymptomatic following therapy in up to 75% of cases with …
Prostate Cancer: Can Multiparametric Mr Imaging Help Identify Patients Who Are Candidates For Active Surveillance?, B. Turkbey, H. Mani, O. Aras, J. Ho, A. Hoang, A. R. Rastinehad, H. Agarwal, V. Shah, M. Bernardo, P. L. Choyke, +8 Additional Authors

PURPOSE: To determine whether multiparametric magnetic resonance (MR) imaging can help identify patients with prostate cancer who would most appropriately be candidates for active surveillance (AS) according to current guidelines and to compare the results with those of conventional clinical assessment scoring systems, including the D'Amico, Epstein, and Cancer of the Prostate Risk Assessment (CAPRA) systems, on the basis of findings at prostatectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This institutional review board-approved HIPAA-compliant retrospectively designed study included 133 patients (mean age, 59.3 years) with a mean prostate-specific antigen level of 6.73 ng/mL (median, 4.39 ng/mL) who underwent multiparametric MR imaging at 3.0 …

Use Of Desipramine For The Treatment Of Overactive Bladder Refractory To Antimuscarinic Therapy, J. H. Hillelsohn, S. Rais-Bahrami, N. Bagadiya, M. Kashan, G. H. Weiss
Journal Articles
Purpose: To evaluate the use of desipramine in the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 43 patients who were treated with desipramine for OAB refractory to antimuscarinic therapy. These OAB patients were stratified by the presence or absence of bladder pain. Results: Forty-three patients were evaluated with a mean follow up time of 12.2 +/- 4.6 months. The mean age of the patients was 71 16 years. Twelve patients (28%) discontinued desipramine, 9 due to perceived lack of efficacy, 2 due to central anticholinergic side effects, and 1 due to the development of oropharyngeal sores. …

PURPOSE: To compare utility of T2-weighted (T2W) MRI and diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI-MRI) obtained with and without an endorectal coil at 3 Tesla (T) for localizing prostate cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This Institutional Review Board-approved study included 20 patients (median prostate-specific antigen, 8.4 ng/mL). Patients underwent consecutive prostate MRIs at 3T, first with a surface coil alone, then with combination of surface, endorectal coils (dual coil) followed by robotic assisted radical prostatectomy. Lesions were mapped at time of acquisition on dual-coil T2W, DWI-MRI. To avoid bias, 6 months later nonendorectal coil T2W, DWI-MRI were mapped. Both MRI evaluations were performed by …

OBJECTIVES: To characterize the surgical feasibility and outcomes of robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) for pathologic T4 bladder cancer. SUBJECTS/PATIENTS: Retrospective evaluation of a prospectively maintained IRCC database was conducted for 1118 patients who underwent RARC between 2003 and 2012. We dichotomized patients based on pathologic stage (10 days, and 90-day readmission were significantly associated with complications in pT4 patients. Meanwhile, BMI, LOS >10 days, grade 3-5 complications, 90-day readmission, smoking, previous abdominal surgery and neoadjuvant chemotherapy were significantly associated with mortality in pT4 patients. On multivariate analysis, BMI was an independent predictor of complications in pT4 patients, but not for …

To review the incidence of UTIs, post-operative fever, and risk factors for post-operative fever in PCNL patients. Between 2007 and 2009, consecutive PCNL patients were enrolled from 96 centers participating in the PCNL Global Study. Only data from patients with pre-operative urine samples and who received antibiotic prophylaxis were included. Pre-operative bladder urine culture and post-operative fever (> 38.5A degrees C) were assessed. Relationship between various patient and operative factors and occurrence of post-operative fever was assessed using logistic regression analyses. Eight hundred and sixty-five (16.2%) patients had a positive urine culture; Escherichia coli was the most common micro-organism found …

Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy For Localized Prostate Cancer: Disease Control And Quality Of Life At 6 Years, A. J. Katz, M. Santoro, F. Diblasio, R. Ashley
Journal Articles
Background: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) may yield disease control for prostate cancer in a brief, hypofractionated treatment regimen without increasing treatment toxicity. Our report presents a 6-year update from 304 low- (n = 211), intermediate- (n = 81), and high-risk (n = 12) prostate cancer patients who received CyberKnife SBRT. Methods: The median PSA at presentation was 5.8 ng/ml. Fifty-seven patients received neoadjuvant hormonal therapy for up to one year. The first 50 patients received a total dose of 35 Gy in 5 fractions of 7 Gy. The subsequent 254 patients received a total dose of 36.25 Gy in 5 …
