Abstract

Objective: We determine the utility of Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) for predicting the presence of skeletal metastasis on Bone Scan (BS) in prostate cancer patients. Material & Methods: Retrospective analysis of medical records of 70 consecutive prostate cancer patients subjected to bone scan during the last 2 years was done. 5 cases were excluded due to the following reasons: Serum PSA not available, hormonal or other therapy given prior to serum PSA measurement, and/or Bone Scan, and symptomatic for bone metastasis. In remaining 65 cases, PSA value and bone scan were evaluated. Results: BS was found to be positive in 20/65 (31%) and negative in 45(69%) patients. 24 (37%) had serum PSA > 100 ng/ml, 25 (38.5%) had PSA of 20‐100 ng/ml and only 16 (24.5%) had PSA < 20 ng/ml. Conclusion: Serum PSA < 20 ng/ml have high predictive value in ruling out skeletal metastasis. Our data are in corroboration with results from previous studies that BS should be performed only if PSA > 20 ng/ml. Using this cut‐off, unnecessary investigation can be avoided. Avoiding BS asymptomatic in this group of patients would translate into a significant cost‐saving and reduction in their psychological and physical burden.

Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study is to examine the difference of lower urinary tract (LUT) symptoms in anuric and non-anuric individuals after renal transplantation (RT). Material & Methods: LUT function and symptoms were assessed in subjects who had undergone RT at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital, Jakarta, from November 2016 to June 2017. Subjects were divided into anuric and non-anuric groups. We excluded patients with surgical complications that could not undergo uroflowmetry. Results: Thirty-two (21 male, 11 female) subjects were recruited in this study. The anuric subjects were younger than the non-anuric ones (47 ± 12.82 vs. 51.31 ± 16.33, p < 0.001) There were no significant differences in the International Prostate Symptoms Score (IPSS) (6.5 ± 3.67 vs. 6.25 ± 2.95, p = 0.567), Overactive Bladder Symptoms Score (OABSS) (4.06 ± 2.01 vs 4.12 ± 2.39, p = 1.000), maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax) (20.32 ± 9.04 vs. 22.32 ± 10.31, p = 0.956), post-void residual (PVR) (41.12 ± 37.63 vs. 47.62 ± 38.63, p = 0.361) and voided volume (227.88 ± 112.30 vs 251.06 ± 126.75, p = 0.588) between anuric and non-anuric subjects, respectively. IPSS-voiding symptom, IPSS-storage symptom, and OAB symptom did not differ significantly between both groups (p > 0.05). Thirteen (13/16) and seven (7/16) subjects of the anuric and non-anuric groups were both pleased with their quality of life, respectively. Conclusion: LUT symptoms do not differ between anuric and non-anuric patients.

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate hypoechoic lesion in transrectal ultrasonography of prostate (TRUS-P) predictive value on prostate cancer based on PSA Interval and Gleason Group. Material & Methods: An observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design take place from January 2015 to December 2018 analyzing patients who had undergone TRUS-P Biopsy at Hasan Sadikin Hospital. Patients are divided into several subgroups according to different PSA levels. A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. PPV, NPV, and Youden’s index were all indexes reflecting the performance of a diagnostic test. Results: There were 35 cases (49.3%) with a visible hypoechoic lesion in TRUS and 36 cases (41.7%) without a visible hypoechoic lesion. In our study, 23.9% of the patients with hypoechoic lesions were diagnosed with prostate cancer on TRUSP-Biopsy. The results of the analysis with Youden’s index show that PSA at intervals of 10-20 is the best predictor of diagnostic values. Then we analyzed the overall detection rate based on PSA interval. Patients with PSA > 20 ng/ml, hypoechoic lesions were significantly associated with Gleason Group. Conclusion: We concluded in our study that the hypoechoic lesion in transurethral ultrasonography of prostate could improve the predictive efficacy for diagnosing prostate cancer.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to know independent prognostic factors to predict the recovery time of bladder cancer patients after radical cystectomy. So that it would be a consideration to determine patient feasibility before surgery and after surgery management. Material & Methods: This study was an observational analytical study with a retrospective approach to examine the relationship between pre-surgery variables of the bladder cancer patients and the duration of treatment post radical cystectomy. Results: From the results of this study, it is known that the average length of postoperative care for older patients (above 65 years) was lower when compared to patients under 65 years with averages of 17.08 and 18.03 days respectively p-value of this analysis was 0.781. Patients with low hemoglobin, albumin, and HALP scores had longer postoperative hospitalization periods but with P values of 0.384, 0.276, and 0.603, the ileal conduit has the longest hospitalization treatment period between the two other procedures, with a P-value of 0.904. It was found that the average length of postoperative care for underweight patients was 16.5 days and for patients with normal BMI was 19.59 days. The difference between these averages showed a p-value of 0.396 it is known that the average length of postoperative care for older patients (above 65 years) was lower when compared to patients under 65 years with averages of 17.08 and 18.03 days respectively. The p-value of this analysis was 0.781 it was found that patients with low hemoglobin, albumin, and HALP scores had longer postoperative treatment periods, p-value 0.384, 0.276, and 0.603. The average duration of postoperative care for patients who applied the ERAS protocol tended to be faster (15.67 days) compared to patients who did not apply the ERAS protocol (18.16 days). Nevertheless, the p-value of this difference was 0.518. Conclusion: This study concludes that there is no prognostic factor that can independently predict the duration of treatment of bladder cancer patients post-radical cystectomy. Therefore in-depth assessment of various factors is required before performing radical cystectomy to achieve the best postoperative recovery rates.

Abstract

Objective: Aim of this study is to identify risk factors associated with erectile dysfunction in post-transurethral prostate resection (TURP) patients for the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Material & Methods: During 2019, 22 patients met the TURP indication criteria in the urology polyclinic of Koja Hospital for symptomatic BPH management. All patients underwent transabdominal ultrasonography to confirm prostate volume and underwent laboratory tests to measure serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA). History of comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular events, and hypertension was recorded. The patient's sexual function was determined using the International Index of Erectile Function questionnaire (IIEF-5) before surgery and six months postoperatively, where erectile dysfunction was established for scores below 21. Mean comparisons were made to see if there was a significant change in IIEF score six months postoperatively. Results: There were 22 subjects as samples with a mean age of 63 ± 3.8 years, prostate volume 47.64 ± 5.5 mL and a median PSA level of 3.3 [1-47] ng/dL. The comorbidities found in the subjects were diabetes mellitus (22.7%), cardiovascular events (36.4%), and hypertension (27.3%). The mean IIEF-5 score before surgery was 14.55 ± 0.78 and was not significantly different (p= 0.225) with a reevaluation six months after surgery of 14.18 ± 0.76. Conclusion: There was no change in the severity of erectile dysfunction in patients undergoing TURP surgery.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the learning curve of the urologist to perform supine PCNL and the perioperative outcome of patients based on a single surgeon’s experience. Material & Methods: 60 consecutive patients who underwent modified supine PCNL for renal stone were analyzed. A single experienced urological surgeon performed the supine PCNL. Mean operative time, drop in hemoglobin level, stone-free rate, complications, and length of hospital stay were analyzed to evaluate the learning curve of the surgeon. All parameters were compared among all six groups obtained from the 60 cases in chronological order. Besides, the outcomes of supine PCNL were also compared to prone PCNL. Results: Mean operative time from 60 cases of supine PCNL was 100 ± 27 minutes. The mean operative time was decreased over time, particularly after 20 cases. Significantly different mean operative times (89 ± 14 minutes vs. 126 ± 21 minutes, p < 0.001) in the groups of cases 21-60 compared to the group of 1–20 cases were observed. The total stone-free rate for supine PCNL from all cases was 68%. There was no difference regarding the reduction of hemoglobin level, stone-free rate, hospital stay, and complication rate. No major complication was found among study subjects. Supine PCNL showed similar outcome parameters compared to prone PCNL. Conclusion: The surgeon acquired the surgical competencies to perform supine PCNL after 20 cases. The supine PCNL could remove the kidney stone as effective and safe as prone PCNL.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcome of Tenckhoff catheter insertion at Sardjito General Hospital for pediatric renal failure. Material & Methods: Data were collected from January 2014 to December 2018 at Sardjito General Hospital. All patient records were collected retrospectively such as patient characteristics, underlying diseases of kidney failure, congenital abnormalities, surgical technique, complications that occur after Tenckhoff catheter insertion. Results: 45 patients meet the inclusion criteria. A total of 7 patients with acute kidney failure (15.5%) and 38 patients with chronic kidney failure (84.5%). Glomerulonephritis is the most common cause of kidney failure (21 patients, 46.7%). The insertion technique used was open surgery in 34 patients (76%) and laparoscopic insertion in 11 patients (24%). Complications reported were catheter dysfunction, leakage of dialysate, surgical site infection, and peritonitis. Conclusion: Tenckhoff catheter insertion for peritoneal dialysis (PD) in pediatric patients with acute and chronic renal failure performed in our center is effective and safe. The most common cause of renal failure in pediatric is glomerulonephritis. Open surgery and laparoscopic insertion of Tenckhoff catheter both have a low complication rate. Catheter dysfunction due to mechanical catheter obstruction is one of the main problems in the placement of Tenckhoff catheter.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to describe the urodynamic characteristics of post-transplant kidney patients with LUTS who were indicated for urodynamics. Material & Methods: This research is a cross-sectional study conducted at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital between 2011-2017. Data were collected from patients who had undergone urodynamic examination after kidney transplantation due to LUTS/urinary retention. Data were collected from the patient’s medical record. Results: A total of 536 patients underwent kidney transplants at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital from 2011-2017. Eleven patients (2%) developed LUTS and then underwent urodynamic examination with an average age of 41.4 (30.1 ± 52.6) years. Six patients (55%) had type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and 5 patients (45%) had hypertension (HT). A total of 6 out of 11 patients (54%) experienced urinary retention of which 4 subjects (67%) had decreased bladder compliance, 4 (67%) patients experienced detrusor overactivity (DO), 3 patients (50%) had bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), while 2 patients (33%) experienced detrusor underactivity (DU) respectively. Of 5 patients without urinary retention, decreased bladder compliance was found in 1 patient (20%), DO in 2 patients (40%), BOO in 1 patient (20%), and no subject experienced DU. In both groups, no subject was discovered to experience any urinary incontinence. Conclusion: Small number of post renal transplantation patients developed LUTS and half of which accompanied by urinary retention. Among these patients, urodynamic examination revealed detrusor overactivity as the most common underlying problem followed by decreased bladder compliance, BOO, and detrusor underactivity

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to investigate mRNA expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 in patients with bladder cancer. Material & Methods: In this study, we examined 30 samples from paraffin embedded tissue blocks, samples were divided into two groups, 15 were NIMBC, and 15 were MIBC according to their histopathological result. mRNA expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 were conducted using Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) and statistical significance was set at a p-value < 0.05. Results: Statistical analysis using the Mann-Whitney test found a significant difference in mRNA expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 in NMIBC compared to MIBC groups. Conclusion: mRNA expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 were higher in MIBC compared to NMIBC. PD-1 and PD-L1 as immune checkpoints are potential immunotherapy for patients with advance stage bladder cancer. Immunotherapy could be a substitute or combined with other treatments such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
