- 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.
bookPart Tratamento da hidrocele(2012) SCHNEIDER-MONTEIRO, Edison D.; LUCON, Antonio Marmo- Development and internal validation of an adrenal cortical carcinoma prognostic score for predicting the risk of metastasis and local recurrence(2013) FREIRE, Daniel Soares; SIQUEIRA, Sheila Aparecida Coelho; ZERBINI, Maria Claudia Nogueira; WAJCHENBERG, Bernardo Leo; CORREA-GIANNELLA, Maria Lucia; LUCON, Antonio Marmo; PEREIRA, Maria Adelaide AlbergariaObjective To develop and internally validate a prognostic score to predict the risk of metastases or recurrence in patients with adrenal cortical carcinomas (ACC). Design Clinical, laboratory and pathological data from 129 ACC patients, treated in a tertiary centre, were retrospectively reviewed. Results Using a multivariate binary logistic regression analysis, we developed a prognostic score with five covariates: a functional pattern other than isolated hyperandrogenism, a tumour size >75cm, a primary tumour classified as T3/T4, the presence of microscopic venous invasion and a mitotic index >5/50 high-power fields. The prognostic score was calibrated according to the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test (P=09329) and exhibited excellent overall performance (Brier score=00738). Finally, the discriminatory ability of the model, determined by the area under the ROC curve (A(ROC)), was near perfect (A(ROC), 09611; 95% CI, 092676-099552). The prediction model was internally validated with 200 bootstrap resamples and achieved excellent performance for estimating the risk of metastasis and recurrence in eight additional patients with apparently localized disease at diagnosis. Conclusion We developed and internally validated a prognostic score based on the clinicopathological data that are readily available to any attending physician. Our model can be used to accurately estimate the risk of unfavourable outcomes in ACC patients. This score could be beneficial for both patient counselling and the identification of patients in whom adjuvant mitotane is justified.

M.- Sclerotherapy of Hydroceles and Spermatoceles with Alcohol: Results and Effects on the Semen Analysis(2011) SHAN, Chen Jen; LUCON, Antonio Marmo; PAGANI, Rodrigo; SROUGI, MiguelPurpose: To evaluate the success rates of sclerotherapy of the tunica vaginalis with alcohol for the treatment of hydroceles and/or spermatoceles, as well as, evaluation of pain, formation of hematomas, infection and its effects in spermatogenesis Materials and Methods: A total of 69 patients, with offsprings and diagnosis of hydrocele and/or spermatocele, were treated during the period from April 2003 to June 2007. Semen analysis was obtained from patients who were able to provide us with samples. The sclerotherapy with alcohol at 99.5% was undertaken as outpatient procedure. Results: The average volume drained pre-sclerotherapy was 279.82 mL (27 to 1145). The median follow-up was 43 months (9 to 80). A total of 114 procedures were performed on 84 units, with an average of 1.35 procedures / unit and an overall success rate of 97.62%. Of the 69 patients, 7 (10.14%) reported minor pain immediately after the procedure, 3 (4.35%) moderate pain and 2 (2.89%) intense pain. Post-Sclerotherapy spermograms revealed reduction of the parameters regarding: concentration, motility and morphology up to 6 months post procedure, with return to normal parameters 12th months after procedure. Conclusions: Sclerotherapy of hydroceles and spermatoceles with 99.5% alcohol is an efficient procedure that can be perormed without difficulties, cost-effectiveness, with few side effects and which may be performed in patients who wish fertility.
bookPart Postectomia(2012) DANILOVIC, Alexandre; LUCON, Antonio Marmo- Urogenital tuberculosis(2017) FIGUEIREDO, A.; LUCON, A. M.; SROUGI, M.Tuberculosis has a worldwide distribution, without cyclical or seasonal variations and with greater prevalence in regions of high population densities and poor socioeconomic and sanitary status. It is estimated that 30% of the world’s population (1.7 billion people) are carriers of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (1). In spite of the availability of pharmacological treatment and of technological breakthroughs, the last 3 decades have witnessed a recrudescence of the infection due to the emergence of resistant bacilli, human migration, and the AIDS epidemic. In fact, tuberculosis is still a serious challenge to the world public health, chiefly in developing countries (2). © 2017 American Society for Microbiology.
- Urogenital Tuberculosis(2017) FIGUEIREDO, Andre A.; LUCON, Antonio M.; SROUGI, MiguelUrogenital tuberculosis is the second most frequent form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. Starting with a pulmonary focus, 2 to 20% of patients develop urogenital tuberculosis through hematogenous spread to the kidneys, prostate, and epididymis; through the descending collecting system to the ureters, bladder, and urethra; and through the ejaculatory ducts to the genital organs. Urogenital tuberculosis occurs at all age ranges, but it is predominant in males in their fourth and fifth decades. It is a serious, insidious disease, generally developing symptoms only at a late stage, which leads to a diagnostic delay with consequent urogenital organ destruction; there are reports of patients with renal failure as their initial clinical presentation. Although the condition has been long recognized by nephrologists, urologists, and infectious disease specialists, urogenital tuberculosis is still largely unknown. Even when suggestive findings such as hematuria, sterile pyuria, and recurrent urinary infections are present, we rarely remember this diagnostic possibility. Greater knowledge of the features of urogenital tuberculosis then becomes relevant and should emphasize the importance of an early diagnosis.
