- The role of urinary KIM-1, NGAL, CA19-9 and beta 2-microglobulin in the assessment of ureteropelvic junction obstruction in adults(2017) MIRANDA, Eduardo P.; DUARTE, Ricardo J.; BESSA JR., Jose de; LOPES, Roberto I.; SROUGI, Victor; ANDRADE, Hiury S.; BANDEIRA, Rodolfo A. S. T.; ARAP, Marco A.; MITRE, Anuar I.; VIANA, Nayara I.; REIS, Sabrina T.; LEITE, Katia R. M.; SROUGI, MiguelPurpose: The objective of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic properties of urinary biomarkers in adults with ureteropelvic junction obstruction: KIM-1, NGAL, CA19-9, and beta 2-microglobulin. We also assessed urinary biomarker concentrations following pyeloplasty. Material and methods: We prospectively studied adults from December 2013 to February 2015. We included 47 patients with a mean age of 38.6 +/- 12.7 years. Each patient provided four samples of voided urine for biomarker measurement, one at pre-operative consultation and the others at 1, 3, and 6 months of post-operative follow-up. The control group consisted of 40 healthy individuals with no hydronephrosis on ultrasound evaluation. Results: KIM-1 had an area under the curve of 0.79 (95% CI 0.70-0.89), NGAL 0.71 (95% CI 0.61-0.83), CA19-9 0.70 (95% CI 0.60-0.81), and beta 2-microgloblin 0.61 (95% CI 0.50-0.73). KIM-1 was the most sensitive marker with a cut-off of 170.4 pg/mg creatinine (sensitivity 91.4%, specificity 59.1%), whereas CA19-9 was the most specific with a cut-off of 51.3 U/mg creatinine (sensitivity 48.9%, specificity 88.0%). Urinary concentrations of biomarkers decreased after pyeloplasty. Conclusions: The evaluation of urinary biomarkers is useful in adults undergoing pyeloplasty. KIM-1, NGAL, and CA19-9 were elevated and significantly decreased after surgery.
- Step-by-step Laparoscopic Vesiculectomy for Hemospermia(2017) MELLO, Marcos Figueiredo; ANDRADE, Hiury Silva; SROUGI, Victor; ARAP, Marco Antonio; MITRE, Anuar Ibrahim; DUARTE, Ricardo Jordao; SROUGI, MiguelHemospermia has been considered as a benign and self-limiting condition. It usually has an inflammatory or infectious cause. However, recurrent or persistent hemospermia may indicate a more serious underlying pathology, especially over 40 years of age. Biopsy or surgical excision is indicated in cases of suspicious findings during investigation, such as cysts or masses. Open surgery has been considered the definitive form of treatment, however, it can be associated with significant morbidity. With growing experience in laparoscopics, this approach is becoming the preferable way to access the seminal vesicles. Our objective is to demonstrate a step-by-step operative technique for laparoscopic unilateral vesiculectomy approach in a man with hemospermia. Case: A 61 year-old man presented with 1 year of hemospermia. He was treated empirically with a fluoroquinolone plus a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory without resolution of symptoms. Ultrasonography and MRI showed a solid-cystic mass in the right seminal vesicle. The patient was submitted to a laparoscopic unilateral vesiculectomy. Histopathological analysis showed intraluminal dilatation with blood content. During follow-up, complete resolution of symptoms was seen. Results: Three patients composed our cohort. Mean age was 53 years-old (range 45-61 years), the right side was more commonly affected (two unilateral on the right and bilateral). Mean operative time was 55 minutes (range 40-120min). One patient presented amyloidosis in the histopathological analysis. All cases presented complete resolution of symptoms. Conclusions: Laparoscopic vesiculectomy is a safe and feasible approach in cases of hemospermia. This technique showed good outcomes and minimal morbidity.
- Extended versus limited pelvic lymphadenectomy during radical prostatectomy for intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer: Early outcomes from a randomized controlled phase III study.(2017) LESTINGI, Jean Felipe Prodocimo; GUGLIELMETTI, Giuliano; PONTES JR., Jose; MITRE, Anuar Ibrahim; SARKIS, Alvaro; BASTOS, Diogo Assed; RIECHELMANN, Rachel; MATTEDI, Romulo Loss; CORDEIRO, Mauricio; COELHO, Rafael; SROUGI, Miguel; NAHAS, William Carlos
- Periprostatic innervation: New issues based on segmental analysis of 10 human cadaver pelvic blocs(2017) RODRIGUES, Tiago M.; MITRE, Anuar I.; SILVA, Luiz Fernando F. da; CASTILHO, Lisias N.; SIMOES, Fabiano A.; SALDIVA, Paulo H. N.; SROUGI, MiguelBackgroundThe exact paths of periprostatic nerves have been under debate over the last decades. In the present study, the topographic distribution of nerves around the prostate and their relative distances from the prostatic capsule were analyzed in male cadaver visceral blocs. MethodsThe pelvic organs from ten fresh male cadavers were removed and serial sectioned en bloc for histological investigation. The macroslices was divided into four sectors. Each sector was centrally covered with a raster dividing each sector in three subsectors numbered clockwise. The prostatic capsule was identified, and distances of 2.5 and 5mm from the prostate were demarked with lines. We quantified the number of nerve fibers present in each subsector of each slide and recorded their position relative to the prostatic capsule. ResultsIn general, the topographic analysis revealed that the majority of nerves were identified in sectors 4 through 9, corresponding to the posterolateral and posterior surfaces of the prostate gland. At the prostate base, the majority of nerves were found at the posterolateral and posterior surfaces of the gland. Within the mid-region of the prostate, the same topographic distribution pattern was observed, but the nerve fibers were closer to the prostatic capsule. At the apical region, the percentage of nerve fibers identified in the anterior region was higher, despite their major concetration in the posterior surface. The nerves identified at the apex were mainly located up to 2.5mm from the prostate. This proximity to the prostate was specifically observed in the anterolateral and anterior sectors. In the craniocaudal sense, the percentage of nerves identified between 2.5 and 5mm from the prostatic capsule remained constant. ConclusionsA significant number of nerve fibers were present in the anterior and anterolateral positions, especially at the apex. The anterior nerves were closer to the prostate. This proximity suggests that the anterior nerves may participate in local physiology and that the cavernous nerves are probably formed by the posterior nerve fibers. It is likely that the safe distance of 2.5mm from all surfaces of the prostate may be related to cavernous fiber preservation.
