- Periurethral muscle-derived mononuclear cell injection improves urethral sphincter restoration in rats(2017) TURCO, Marcelo Pitelli; SOUZA, Alex Balduino de; SOUSA, Isida de Campos; FRATINI, Paula; VERAS, Mariana Matera; RODRIGUES, Marcio Nogueira; BESSA JR., Jose de; BROLIO, Marina Pandolphi; LEITE, Katia Ramos Moreira; BRUSCHINI, Homero; SROUGI, Miguel; MIGLINO, Maria Angelica; GOMES, Cristiano MendesAimsInvestigate the effect of a novel cell-based therapy with skeletal muscle-derived mononuclear cells (SMDMCs) in a rat model of stress urinary incontinence. MethodsMale Wistar-Kyoto rats' hind limb muscles were enzymatically dissociated, and SMDMCs were isolated without needing expansion. The cell population was characterized. Twenty female rats underwent urethrolysis. One week later, 10 rats received periurethral injection of 10(6) cells (SMDMC group), and 10 rats received saline injections (Saline group). Ten rats underwent sham surgery (Sham group). Four weeks after injection, animals were euthanized and the urethra was removed. The incorporation of SMDMCs in the female urethra was evaluated with fluorescence in situ hybridization for the detection of Y-chromosomes. Hematoxylin and eosin, Masson's trichrome staining, and immunohistochemistry for actin and myosin were performed. The muscle/connective tissue, actin and myosin ratios were calculated. Morphological evaluation of the urethral diameters and fractional areas of the lumen, mucosa, and muscular layer was performed. ResultsSMDMCs population was consistent with the presence of muscle cells, muscle satellite cells, perivascular cells, muscle progenitor cells, and endothelial cells. SMDMCs were incorporated into the urethra. A significant decrease in the muscle/connective tissue ratio was observed in the Saline group compared with the SMDMC and Sham groups. The proportions of actin and myosin were significantly decreased in the Saline group. No differences were observed in the morphometric parameters. ConclusionsSDMSC were incorporated into the rat urethra and promoted histological recovery of the damaged urethral sphincter, resulting in decreased connective tissue deposition and increased muscle content.
- Lower urinary tract symptoms in children and adolescents with Williams-Beuren syndrome(2017) SAMMOUR, Z. M.; BESSA JR., J. de; HISANO, M.; BRUSCHINI, H.; KIM, C. A.; SROUGI, M.; GOMES, C. M.Introduction Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a genetic condition caused by a microscopic deletion in the chromosome band 7q11.23. Individuals with WBS may present with congenital cardiovascular defects, neurodevelopmental disturbances and structural abnormalities of the urinary tract. Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) seem to be frequent in this population, but studies on this topic are scarce and based on small case series. Objective To systematically evaluate the prevalence of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and the acquisition of bladder control in a large population with WBS. Study design A cross-sectional study evaluating 87 consecutive patients with WBS; there were 41 girls and 46 boys. Genetic studies confirmed WBS in all patients. Subjects were clinically evaluated with: a history of LUTS obtained from the parents and child, a structured questionnaire of LUTS, a 3-day urinary frequency-volume chart, a quality of life question regarding LUTS, and physical examination. A history regarding the acquisition of bladder control was directly evaluated from the parents. Results Mean age of patients was 9.0 +/- 4.2 years, ranging from 3 to 19 years. Based on the symptoms questionnaire and the frequency-volume chart, 70 patients (80.5%) were symptomatic. The most common symptom was urgency, affecting 61 (70.1%) patients, followed by increased urinary frequency in 60 (68.9%) patients, and urge-incontinence in 53 (60.9%), as shown in Summary Fig. More than half of the children reported nocturnal enuresis, including 61% of the girls and 52% of the boys. Twenty-three patients (25.6%) had a history of urinary tract infections. The mean age for acquisition of dryness during the day was 4.4 +/- 1.9 years. Parents of 61 patients (70.1%) acknowledged that LUTS had a significant impact on the quality of life of their children. Discussion A high prevalence of LUTS was confirmed with a significant negative impact on quality of life in a large population of children and adolescents with WBS. It was shown for the first time that the achievement of daytime bladder control is delayed in children with WBS. Although LUTS are not recognized as one of the leading features of the syndrome, it is believed that it should be considered as a significant characteristic of the clinical diagnosis of WBS. Conclusions LUTS are highly prevalent in children and adolescents with WBS and have a significant negative impact on patient's quality of life.
conferenceObject EXPERIENCE WITH COMPLETE TRIGONAL ELECTROFULGURATION FOR WOMEN WITH RECURRENT URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS: TWO YEARS FOLLOW-UP(2021) RIBEIRO-FILHO, Leopoldo; HIRASAKI, Felipe; MIRANDA, Eduardo; SIQUEIRA, Matheus; GOMES, Cristiano; SROUGI, Miguel; NAHAS, William- Increased expression of MMP-9 and IL-8 are correlated with poor prognosis of Bladder Cancer(2012) REIS, Sabrina Thalita; LEITE, Katia Ramos M.; PIOVESAN, Luis Felipe; PONTES-JUNIOR, Jose; VIANA, Nayara Izabel; ABE, Daniel Kanda; CRIPPA, Alexandre; MOURA, Caio Martins; ADONIAS, Sanarelly Pires; SROUGI, Miguel; DALL'OGLIO, Marcos FranciscoBackground: Extracellular matrix homeostasis is strictly maintained by a coordinated balance between the expression of metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the expression of MMP-9, MMP-2 and its specific inhibitors, are expressed in a reproducible, specific pattern and if the profiles are related to prognosis in Bladder Cancer (BC). Methods: MMP-9, MMP-2 and its specific inhibitors expression levels were analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in fresh-frozen malignant tissue collected from 40 patients with BC submitted to transurethral resection of bladder. The control group consisted of normal bladder tissue from five patients who had undergone retropubic prostatectomy to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia. Results: MMP-9 was overexpressed in 59.0 % of patients, and MMP-2, TIMP-1, TIMP-2, MMP-14, RECK and IL-8 was underexpressed in most of the patients. Regarding prognostic parameters we observed that high-grade tumors exhibited significantly higher levels of MMP-9 and IL-8 (p = 0.012, p = 0.003). Invasive tumors (pT1-pT2) had higher expression levels of MMP-9 than superficial tumors (pTa) (p = 0.026). The same was noted for IL-8 that was more expressed by invasive tumors (p = 0.015, p = 0.048). Most importantly tumor recurrence was related with higher levels of both MMP-9 (p = 0.003) and IL-8 (p = 0.005). Conclusion: We have demonstrated that the overexpression of MMP-9 and higher expression of IL-8 are related to unfavorable prognostic factors of urothelial bladder cancer and tumor recurrence and may be useful in the follow up of the patients.
- Prostate biopsy in patients with long-term use of indwelling bladder catheter: What is the rationale?(2012) ANTUNES, Alberto A.; BARBOSA, Joao Arthur B. A.; REIS, Sabrina T.; GUARIERO, Mary S.; FUKUSHIMA, Julia T.; DALL'OGLIO, Marcos F.; FREIRE, Geraldo de C.; LUCON, Antonio M.; LEITE, Katia R.; SROUGI, MiguelObjective: Acute urinary retention (AUR) is expected to occur in 2% to 39% men with benign prostatic hyperplasia. To date, no study has elucidated the effect of long-term use of indwelling bladder catheter on serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels and on the incidence of prostate cancer (CaP). The aim of the present study is to analyze the incidence of CaP in patients with long-term use of indwelling bladder catheter and determine some practice patterns on this issue. Materials and methods: The study comprised a retrospective analysis of data from 1,651 patients who had undergone transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy from July 2004 to June 2009. Among these patients, 198 (12%) were using an indwelling bladder catheter during the biopsy for at least 1 month. The incidence of CaP was recorded according to total PSA levels. Other variables such patient age, free/total PSA rate, PSA density, prostate volume, and duration of catheter use was also analyzed. Men with a digital rectal examination suspicious for cancer were not considered for analysis. Results: Median patient age was 71 years (37 to 89 years). Overall, 25% of patients presented a CaP diagnosis. CaP incidence according to the PSA levels was 0%, 18.9%, 24.5%, and 40.6% for patients with PSA <= 4.0, 4.1-10.0, 10.1-20.0, and >20.0 ng/ml, respectively. When prostate volume was analyzed together, we demonstrated that only 1 (2.4%) patient with PSA below 10.0 ng/ml and prostate volume >60 g had CaP. Median total PSA, PSA density, and prostate volume were statistically different between patients with and without CaP. Conclusions: Prostate biopsy should not be indicated for all patients with diagnosis of BPH and AUR who present an elevated PSA level. Patients with PSA below 10.0 ng/ml, and prostate volume >60 g should only undergo biopsy in selected cases. Patients with PSA >20.0 ng/ml and a prostate volume <= 60 g are at higher risk of CaP diagnosis.
- Percutaneous nephrolithotomy in patients with spinal cord injury: should all these patients be automatically assigned a Guy's stone score of 4?(2021) TORRICELLI, Fabio C. M.; VICENTINI, Fabio C.; ZANETTI, Lucas; PERRELLA, Rodrigo; MARCHINI, Giovanni S.; DANILOVIC, Alexandre; BATAGELLO, Carlos A.; MURTA, Claudio B.; CLARO, Joaquim F. A.; SROUGI, Miguel; NAHAS, William C.; MAZZUCCHI, EduardoPurpose To assess the complication and stone-free rates of PCNL in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) and to evaluate whether this population should be assigned a Guy's stone score (GSS) of 4. Methods A case-control study was conducted, and electronic charts were reviewed to search for patients with SCI, bladder dysfunction, and kidney stones who had undergone PCNL. Control cases were randomly selected from among patients with complete staghorn calculus (GSS = 4). Results One hundred and seventeen patients were included. Patients with SCI had a significant shorter operative time (119 vs. 141 min;p = 0.018). There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of the patients' position, number of renal tracts, bleeding or transfusion rate; however, there was a significantly higher complication rate (23.1% vs. 7.8%;p = 0.009) and a longer hospital stay (5.8 vs. 3.1 days;p = 0.002) among patients with SCI. With regards to the stone-free rate in patients with different grades of GSS patients with SCI who had a GSS of 1 had a stone-free rate of 85.7%, while those with a GSS of 2, 3, or 4 had 50%, 50%, and 31.5%, respectively (p = 0.024). Only patients with a GSS of 4 in the SCI group had outcomes that were similar to those of control patients (31.5% vs. 31.6%). Conclusion Patients with SCI should not be automatically assigned GSS 4. Stone-free rate is related to stone burden in these patients, although they do show a higher complication rate and a longer hospital stay than non-neurological patients.
- Endovascular repair of a nearly fatal iliac artery injury after endoureterotomy(2013) LOPES, Roberto Iglesias; TORRICELLI, Fabio Cesar Miranda; GOMES, Cristiano Mendes; CARNEVALE, Francisco; BRUSCHINI, Homero; SROUGI, MiguelEndourological methods are attractive procedures for the treatment of ureterointestinal stenosis. However, serious complications may occur. This article reports the case of an endovascular repair of a nearly fatal ruptured common iliac artery pseudoaneurysm after endoureterotomy. A 62-year-old man submitted to bilateral ureteroileostomy developed left ureteroileal anastomosis stricture. Endourological treatment with the Acucise (R) cutting balloon was performed and 4 days after the procedure the patient presented with massive bleeding through the ileal stoma and hypovolemic shock. Arteriography identified the source of bleeding as a pseudoaneurysm of the left common iliac artery. Repair with an endovascular graft stopped the bleeding immediately. Endovascular treatment of vascular injury after endoureterotomy should be considered.
article 13 Citação(ões) na Scopus Socioeconomic status is an independent predictor of biochemical recurrence among patients with prostate cancer who undergo radical prostatectomy(2011) SROUGI, Victor; ANTUNES, Alberto A.; REIS, Sabrina T.; DALL'OGLIO, Marcos F.; NESRALLAH, Adriano J.; LEITE, Ktia R. M.; SROUGI, MiguelPurpose: Socioeconomic status (SES) may influence cancer characteristics and behavior in several aspects. We analyzed PCa characteristics and behavior among low income uninsured men, and compare them to high income patients with health insurance in a developing country. Materials and Methods: A retrospective case-control study was performed on 934 patients with clinically localized PCa who underwent radical prostatectomy between March, 1999 and July, 2009. Patients were divided in two groups, according to their SES. In group 1 (n=380), all had low income, low educational levels and couldn't afford medical insurance. In group 2 (n=554), all had higher income, higher education and had medical insurance. Results: Patients from group 1 were older, had higher Gleason scores, higher rates of seminal vesicle and bladder neck involvement. The Kaplan Meier disease-free survival curve demonstrated that after a follow-up of four years, about 50% of uninsured patients had biochemical recurrence, versus 21% of insured patients (Log rank test: p < 0.001). A multivariate Cox regression analysis for the risk of disease recurrence demonstrated that only PSA levels, Gleason score, seminal vesicle involvement and SES were statistically significant variables. Patients with a low SES presented 1.8 times the risk of recurrence as compared to patients with a high SES. Conclusions: Patients with low SES were older, presented more aggressive PCa characteristics and a high rate of disease recurrence. A low SES constituted an independent predictor for disease recurrence.conferenceObject FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH SEVERE SEPTIC EVENTS AFTER SURGICAL DECOMPRESSION OF OBSTRUCTING URETERAL STONES: A PROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS(2016) MARCHINI, Giovanni; MOSCARDI, Paulo; SROUGI, Victor; VICENTINI, Fabio; TORRICELLI, Fabio; BRITO, Artur; CAMARA, Cesar; SROUGI, Miguel; MAZZUCCHI, EduardoconferenceObject Impact of surgery and chemotherapy over renal function in bilateral Wilms tumor patients(2012) DUARTE, R. J.; CRISTOFANI, L. M.; GIRON, A. M.; DENES, F. T.; ODONE-FILHO, V; TANNURI, U.; SROUGI, M.INTRODUCTION & OBJECTIVES: Bilateral Wilms’ tumor represents 3% of all cases. The challenge of this situation is curing these patients preserving their renal function and quality of life (dialysis free status). Our purpose was to evaluate the success of renal function preservation in children treated for bilateral Wilms’ tumor. MATERIAL & METHODS: From January/1982 through June/2009, 13 children with bilateral Wilms’ tumor (4F: 9M, median age 16 months) were diagnosed. All patients received preoperative chemotherapy with VCR/ACTD (13 patients), VCR/ACTD/ADRIA (10 patients), VCR/ACTD/ADRIA/CBDCA/ETO (3 patients), VCR/ACTD/ADRIA/CBDCA/ETO/IFO (2 patients), for 8 through 40 weeks (median 16 weeks). All patients were submitted to surgical procedure nephron sparing objective. RESULTS: Radical unilatera l nephrectomy was performed in 9 patients (combined with contralateral nodulectomy in 8), bilateral nodulectomy in 3, and unilateral nodulectomy in 1. Two patients presented unilateral disappearing of the disease after preoperative chemotherapy on image and surgical evaluation. The histhopatological analysis revealed the classic triphasic Wilms’ tumor in 9 patients, rhabdomyoblastic differentiation in 3 and blastematous rests in one patient. Four patients relapsed: 2 in the remaining kidney, 1 in the tumoral bed and 1 in lungs (9mo, 1mo, 5mo and 6 mo after surgery). A ll, except the lung relapsed patient, were rescued, achieving a second remission, but one presented a second diffuse abdominal relapse and died. 11/13 patients have normal renal function and are alive and free of disease for 23+ months to 28+years. 1/13 patients presents microalbuminuria and mild systemic hypertension, requiring medication support. CONCLUSIONS: Bilateral Wilms’ tumor was successfully treated and renal function was preserved in 84.6% of surviving patients, even those cases that received nephrotoxic drugs.
