    (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.

    PENILE AND SCROTUM SWELLING IN JUVENILE DERMATOMYOSITIS
    (2011) SALLUM, Adriana Maluf Elias; SILVA, Marco Felipe Castro; MICHELIN, Cintia Maria; DUARTE, Ricardo Jordao; BARONI, Ronaldo Hueb; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; SILVA, Clovis Artur
    Edema is a well-known feature of juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM). However, to our knowledge localized penile and scrotum swelling was not previously reported. During a 27-year period, 5,506 patients were followed up at the Pediatric Rheumatology Unit of our University Hospital and 157 patients (2.9%) had JDM. One of them (0.6%) had concomitant localized penile and scrotum swelling. He had severe disease activity since he was 7-year-old, manifested by diffuse cutaneous vasculitis, recurrent localized edema (limbs or face) and only one episode of generalized edema. At the age of 10, he presented edema of the genitalia associated with mild skin erythema. Penis, scrotum and testicular ultrasound as well as magnetic resonance imaging showed skin edema without testicular involvement. He was taking prednisone, methotrexate, cyclosporin, hydroxychloroquine and thalidomide. Improvement of skin rash, penile and scrotum swelling was noticed only with rituximab therapy. No adverse event was observed during anti-CD20 infusions and after six months of follow up. Penile and scrotum edema was a rare manifestation of JDM which improved with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody treatment.

    Is there a model to teach and practice retroperitoneoscopic nephrectomy?
    (2013) HISANO, Marcelo; DUARTE, Ricardo Jordao; COLOMBO JR., Jose Roberto; SROUGI, Miguel
    Introduction: Although the retroperitoneal approach has been the preferred choice for open urological procedures, retroperitoneoscopy is not the preferred approach for laparoscopy. This study aims to develop a training model for retroperitoneoscopy and to establish an experimental learning curve. Material and methods: Fifteen piglets were operated on to develop a standard retroperitoneoscopic nephrectomy (RPN) training model. All procedures were performed with three ports. Intraoperative data (side, operative time, blood loss, peritoneal opening) were recorded. Animals were divided into groups A, the first eight, and B, the last seven cases. Data were statistically analyzed. Results: We performed fifteen RPNs. The operative time varied from 15 to 50 minutes (median 30 minutes). Blood loss varied from 5 to 100 mL (median 20 mL). We experienced five peritoneal openings; we had two surgical vascular complications managed laparoscopically. There was statistical difference between groups A and B for peritoneal opening (p = 0.025), operative time (p = 0.0037), and blood loss (p = 0.026). Discussion: RPN in a porcine model could simulate the whole procedure, from creating the space to nephrectomy completion. Experimental learning curve was eight cases, after statistical data analysis. Conclusion: RPN in a porcine model is feasible and could be very useful for teaching and practicing retroperitoneoscopy.

    Surgical Performance During Laparoscopic Radical Nephrectomy Is Improved With Training in a Porcine Model
    (2012) CRUZ, Jose Arnaldo Shiomi da; PASSEROTTI, Carlo Camargo; FRATI, Rodrigo Marcus Cunha; REIS, Sabrina Thalita dos; OKANO, Marcelo Takeo Rufato; GOUVEIA, Eder Maxwell; BIOLO, Karlo Domelles; DUARTE, Ricardo Jordao; Hiep Nguyen; SROUGI, Miguel
    Background and Purpose: Becoming proficient in laparoscopic surgery is dependent on the acquisition of specialized skills that can only be obtained from specific training. This training could be achieved in various ways using inanimate models, animal models, or live patient surgery-each with its own pros and cons. Currently, there are substantial data that support the benefits of animal model training in the initial learning of laparoscopy. Nevertheless, whether these benefits extent themselves to moderately experienced surgeons is uncertain. The purpose of this study was to determine if training using a porcine model results in a quantifiable gain in laparoscopic skills for moderately experienced laparoscopic surgeons. Materials and Methods: Six urologists with some laparoscopic experience were asked to perform a radical nephrectomy weekly for 10 weeks in a porcine model. The procedures were recorded, and surgical performance was assessed by two experienced laparoscopic surgeons using a previously published surgical performance assessment tool. The obtained data were then submitted to statistical analysis. Results: With training, blood loss was reduced approximately 45% when comparing the averages of the first and last surgical procedures (P = 0.006). Depth perception showed an improvement close to 35% (P = 0.041), and dexterity showed an improvement close to 25% (P = 0.011). Total operative time showed trends of improvement, although it was not significant (P = 0.158). Autonomy, efficiency, and tissue handling were the only aspects that did not show any noteworthy change (P = 0.202, P = 0.677, and P = 0.456, respectively). Conclusions: These findings suggest that there are quantifiable gains in laparoscopic skills obtained from training in an animal model. Our results suggest that these benefits also extend to more advanced stages of the learning curve, but it is unclear how far along the learning curve training with animal models provides a clear benefit for the performance of laparoscopic procedures. Future studies are necessary to confirm these findings and better understand the impact of this learning tool on surgical practice.

    Establishing the minimal number of virtual reality simulator training sessions necessary to develop basic laparoscopic skills competence: evaluation of the learning curve
    (2013) DUARTE, Ricardo Jordao; CURY, Jose; OLIVEIRA, Luis Carlos Neves; SROUGI, Miguel
    Introduction: Medical literature is scarce on information to define a basic skills training program for laparoscopic surgery (peg and transferring, cutting, clipping). The aim of this study was to determine the minimal number of simulator sessions of basic laparoscopic tasks necessary to elaborate an optimal virtual reality training curriculum. Materials and Methods: Eleven medical students with no previous laparoscopic experience were spontaneously enrolled. They were submitted to simulator training sessions starting at level 1 (Immersion Lap VR, San Jose, CA), including sequentially camera handling, peg and transfer, clipping and cutting. Each student trained twice a week until 10 sessions were completed. The score indexes were registered and analyzed. The total of errors of the evaluation sequences (camera, peg and transfer, clipping and cutting) were computed and thereafter, they were correlated to the total of items evaluated in each step, resulting in a success percent ratio for each student for each set of each completed session. Thereafter, we computed the cumulative success rate in 10 sessions, obtaining an analysis of the learning process. By non-linear regression the learning curve was analyzed. Results: By the non-linear regression method the learning curve was analyzed and a r(2) = 0.73 (p < 0.001) was obtained, being necessary 4.26 (similar to five sessions) to reach the plateau of 80% of the estimated acquired knowledge, being that 100% of the students have reached this level of skills. From the fifth session till the 10th, the gain of knowledge was not significant, although some students reached 96% of the expected improvement. Conclusions: This study revealed that after five simulator training sequential sessions the students' learning curve reaches a plateau. The forward sessions in the same difficult level do not promote any improvement in laparoscopic basic surgical skills, and the students should be introduced to a more difficult training tasks level.

    Pyeloplasty in Adults With Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction in Poorly Functioning Kidneys: A Systematic Review
    (2021) FREITAS, Pedro. F. S.; BARBOSA, Joao. A. B. A.; ANDRADE, Hiury S.; ARAP, Marco A.; MITRE, Anuar I.; NAHAS, William C.; SROUGI, Miguel; DUARTE, Ricardo J.; SROUGI, Victor
    OBJECTIVES To systematically summarize the available evidence concerning the impact of pyeloplasty on symptoms and differential renal function (DRF) in adults with unilateral UPJO in poorly functioning kidneys (PFK), and to identify potential predictors of kidney function recovery that could help clinicians select candidates for pyeloplasty. METHODS A literature search (MEDLINE, Embase, Google Scholar, Scopus, ClinicalTrials.gov, and the WHO Clinical Trials Registry) and systematic review were performed up to September 2020 according to the PRISMA guidelines. PFK were defined as a baseline DRF =30% on renal scintigraphy. The primary endpoints were symptom relief and postoperative scintigraphic DRF. Predictors of kidney function recovery were evaluated and compared among studies. RESULTS Nine studies comprising 731 patients met the inclusion criteria and were included for evidence synthesis. A DRF increase >5% occurred in 13.3%-53.8% of 160 patients with a pre- and postoperative renal scan. Symptoms improved in 73.3%-93.3% of 141 adults after pyeloplasty. Neither patient's age, baseline DFR, comorbidities, degree of hydronephrosis, kidney parenchymal thickness, nor kidney biopsy findings consistently predicted a significant DRF increase among 375 patients undergoing pyeloplasty. CONCLUSION Based on a low level of evidence, pyeloplasty may relieve symptoms and stabilize kidney function in adults with UPJO in PFK. A significant number of patients showed a DRF increase >5%, yet no consistent predictor of kidney function recovery was identified. Until more evidence becomes available, pyeloplasty could be considered for selected cases after accounting for the risks of a failure requiring a future nephrectomy. (C) 2021 Elsevier Inc.

    Misdiagnosis in Wilms tumor: Concerns on the use of preoperative chemotherapy
    (2012) DUARTE, R. J.; CRISTOFANI, L. M.; DENES, F. T.; GIRON, A. M.; ODONE-FILHO, V; SROUGI, M.
    INTRODUCTION & OBJECTIVES: Modern image armamentarium allows the preoperative diagnosis of Wilms tumor and the use of preoperative chemotherapy as precluded by SIOP protocols without a biopsy specimen. However, misdiagnosis is possible even with very accurate examination. This paper describes our experience with children who were preoperatively considered as having Wilms tumor and who received preoperative chemotherapy as SIOP 2001 protocol, and after delayed surgery, a different diagnosis was revealed. MATERIAL & METHODS: The charts of children admitted to our institution with diagnosis of Wilms tumor from January 2000 through December 2010 were reviewed in order to disclose all those who were submitted to preoperative chemotherapy followed by surgical removal of the tumor. The histopathological diagnosis and the subsequent treatment were reviewed. RESULTS: 81 children were admitted to our institution with the diagnosis of Wilms tumor during the analyzed period. Median age was 3.2 years (range 7 mo trough 5 years). All children presented with renal mass suggestive of Wilms tumor on abdominal ultrasonography and computerized tomography. All received preoperative chemotherapy with vincristine plus dactinomycin for four weeks, been afterwards submitted to nephrectomy. Histopathological analysis confirmed Wilms tumor in 78/81 cases (96%), but in 3/81 (4%) of the cases the diagnosis was clear cell sarcoma (1/81), multicystic kidney (1/81) and neuroblastoma (1/81). No further chemotherapy was administered to the child with multicystic kidney and the other two children were treated according to specific protocols. CONCLUSIONS: In spite of the refined image methods available in our days, misdiagnosis of Wilms tumor is still possible and it should be a concern when preoperative chemotherapy is the first line treatment.

    The influence of interstitial cells of Cajal density in the outcomes of pyeloplasty in adults: A prospective analysis
    (2023) SROUGI, Victor; BANDEIRA, Rodolfo Anisio Santana de Torres; REIS, Sabrina Thalita; SANTOS, Gabriel Arantes dos; ANDRADE, Hiury da Silva; LEITE, Katia Ramos Moreira; HAMILTON-CHO, David; MITRE, Anuar Ibrahim; ARAP, Marco Antonio; SROUGI, Miguel; DUARTE, Ricardo Jordao
    Purpose: To evaluate if the density of interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) in the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) influences the outcomes of pyeloplasty in adults. Methods: Twenty-three patients with the diagnosis of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) that underwent laparoscopic dismembered pyeloplasty were included. ICC density was measured using immunohistochemistry reaction for c-KIT expression in the resected UPJ segment. Pyeloplasty outcome was evaluated by patient self-report pain, urinary outflow using DTPA renogram and hydronephrosis assessment using ultrasound (US) at 12 months of follow-up. A logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the association of pyeloplasty outcomes and ICC density. Results: Low, moderate, and high ICC density were present in 17.4%, 30.4%, and 52.2% of the patients, respectively. Complete pain resolution was observed in 100%, 85.7%, and 75% of patients with low, moderate and high ICC density, respectively (p = 0.791). DTPA renogram improved in 75%, 85.7%, and 91.7% of patients with low, moderate and high ICC density, respectively (p = 0.739). Hydronephrosis improved in 25%, 85.7%, and 91.7% of patients with low, moderate and high ICC density, respectively (p = 0.032). Conclusions: Patients with high ICC density have a significant amelioration of hydronephrosis after pyeloplasty. However, ICC density is not associated with functional outcomes.
