Abstract

Objective: This study was undertaken to estimate the epidemiological characteristics, histological types, and subtypes of testicular neoplasm according to the WHO classification in our patient group. Material & Methods: This was a retrospective study done over a period of ten years from January 2010 - December 2020 in our institution. Histopathological slides were retrieved and reviewed for tumour. Testicular Neoplasm patients who underwent orchidectomy and chemotherapy clinical data including the patient’s age, tumor location, tumor side, pathological finding, tumor marker, chemotherapy regiment, prognosis, chemotherapy response, and side effect were observed. All the data were analyzed descriptively and using SPSS 17.0. Results: A total of 31 cases of testicular and paratesticular neoplasm were encountered in our study with a mean age of 32.516.2 years. The highest incidence was 15-35 years old (48.3). Scrotum mass was the most frequent clinical presentation (70.96%) and left side became the predominant area (52%). Most of the patients come in late stage T3 (51.61%) and N3 (67.74%) with no metastatic process (70.96). The major pathological finding was Seminoma (64.51%), Teratoma (16.12), Yolk Sac (12.9%), Embryonal, and Mixed (3.22%). AFP, B-HCG, and LDH were elevated in some Seminoma, Teratoma, and Yolk Sac groups. The most wide chemotherapy used was 4 series BEP (87.09%). Patient prognosis highest incidence were Intermediate (70.96%). Most of the patients showed complete response (67.74) of chemotherapy. Nausea, vomiting, alopecia, and mucositis were observed as chemotherapy side effect in all patients. Conclusion: Testicular neoplasm peak incidence appears in young male. Most patients come to health care service in late stage. Seminoma become the highest testicular neoplasm incidence in our study. Elevated tumor markers were found in some patients. Four cycle BEP chemotherapy regiment showed great outcome for these patients. Keywords: Epidemiological, histological, testicular neoplasm.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to report the possibility of non-operative management (NOM) as a Renal artery thrombosis (RAT) treatment. Case(s) Presentation: In this series, we reported 3 cases of unilateral RAT secondary to blunt abdominal trauma treated with NOM, where patient had complete bed rest, close observation, laboratory tests, and serial imaging. During a first-month follow-up, hypertension, renal abscess, persistent flank pain, or impairment of renal function were not found in the patients. However, after a one-year follow-up, an atrophic kidney appeared due to RAT in one of our cases. Discussion: RAT secondary to blunt abdominal trauma is rare. However, the management of RAT is still controversial. Renal preservation with NOM possesses reasonable success because the risk of complication does not exceed that of revascularization, and is currently considered. Conclusion: NOM is considered a treatment option in the cases of unilateral RAT with good contralateral renal function. This treatment provides a minimal number of complications. Keywords: Renal artery thrombosis, non-operative management.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to report a case of bladder embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma in an 18-months-old boy. Case(s) Presentation: An 18-months-old boy presented with complaint of difficult urinating since the last 2 months before presentation. It was accompanied with hematuria, blood clot and palpable mass in the lower abdomen. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of lower abdomen showed a solid mass in the inferior bladder wall, involved bilateral ureterovesical junction (UVJ) that caused bilateral severe hydroureteronephrosis, lymphadenopathy, and multiple nodul in both lungs. Cystoscopy was performed and found intrabladder tumor near the bladder neck and trigonum. Then biopsy of the bladder tumor was performed. Pathology result of the specimens showed bladder embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma. Then immunohistochemistry examination was performed with desmin and myogenin antibody to confirm bladder embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma diagnosis. Discussion: Bladder embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma often involves the bladder neck and trigone. In general, clinical symptoms relate to mass and blockage caused by mass. Ultrasound is the first imaging examination performed. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) helps depict the mass, usually hyperintense on the T2 image. The immunohistochemical examination is an important examination of skeletal muscle markers. Desmin found in muscle is used to diagnose rhabdomyosarcoma. Conclusion: Bladder embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma is a diagnostic challenge as it is a rare malignant tumor. The clinician needs to be aware of this entity and performed immunohistochemistry as an important examination to accurately diagnose embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the bladder. Keywords: Bladder, immunohistochemistry, rhabdomyosarcoma.

Abstract

Objective: This case report will discuss the experience of using percutaneous drainage as an alternative of open surgery in pararenal abscess therapy. Case(s) Presentation: 61 years old woman complained of left flank pain 6 months before with septic condition. Physical examination revealed tenderness and mass in the left flank region with leukocytosis. Abdominal Computed Tomography (CT) Scan results showed a left lower pole pararenal abscess, severe hydropyonephrosis and ureteropelvic junction stones. Percutaneous abscess drainage and percutaneous nephrostomy was performed with an 18Fr troicart using ultrasound guidance. Discussion: The pus culture showed Escherichia coli bacteria. After three days of operation and intravenous antibiotics, the patient experienced clinical improvement. Outpatient follow-up showed decreased drain production from percutaneous abscess drainage and clear yellow liquid production from percutaneous. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy was performed for the management of stone evacuation. After going through the whole procedure, there is clinical improvement of patient. Conclusion: Percutaneous drainage is an alternative option in the management of perirenal abscesses. Compared to open surgical drainage, the percutaneous technique provides a minimally invasive process, shorter length of stay and more effective costs. This procedure has also shown good clinical improvement in patients. Keywords: Minimal invasive, pararenal abscess, percutaneous drainage.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to determine the response of penis growth to testosterone injection. Material & Methods: The study was conducted on all cases of micropenis from January 2016 to December 2020. Each subject who met the criteria for micropenis received 25 mg of intramuscular testosterone ester injection, in 4 doses with an interval of 1 week. Evaluation is done at the beginning, before administration of testosterone, then an evaluation is carried out for each patient before testosterone injection until 1 week after the 4th injection. Penis measurement is done by fully stretched length measurement. Results: There were 62 patients who met the criteria for micropenis. The average age of patients with micropenis when they first came was 5.9 years. The patient's mean initial penile length was 2.13 cm. There was an increase in penis length of 32% in the first injection, 28% after the second injection, 18% after the third injection and 14% after the fourth injection. The average length of the penis at the first, second, third and fourth injections was 2.53 cm, 3.24 cm, 3.65 cm and 4.01 cm, respectively. At the end of treatment, there was an average increase in penile length of 75.8% compared to the beginning of treatment. Conclusion: In conclusion, it can be said that testosterone therapy in micropenis patients gave a good response in terms of increasing penile length by 75.8% and increasing the average from 2.13 cm to 4.01 cm.

Objective: This study was aimed to know the complication and safety of TPPB-VY in clinical practice. Material & Methods: TPPB were performed in 34 patients between January 2019 and Juni 2021. Ethical approval of this study was sought from the hospital authorities (IRB number: LB.02.01/X.6.5/ 55/2020). Patients underwent systematic 10-12 core TPPB depend on the prostate volume with intravenous light sedation. The patient was included to the study if PSA ≥ 4 ng/ml and/or Digital Rectal Examination (DRE) results suggestive of prostate cancer. Procedures were performed without any antibiotic prophylaxis or an enema before the procedure and post procedure the patients just get an oral fluoroquinolones and low potent analgetics (if needed). The complication include pain level post procedure (using VAS), perineal hematoma, fever and retention post biopsy were recorded. Results: In all, 34 patients were included in the study. The result showed that perineal pain perceived by patients post procedure were 76.47% (26 out of 34 patients) but the VAS score just mild around 0-2. There were 23.53% (8 out of 34 patients) hematuria, 5.88% (2 out of 34 patients) acute urinary retention and 2.9 % (1 out of 34 patients) perineal hematoma. No fever or clinical infection was observed and 82.35% (28 out of 34 patients) patients presented with minor complications (ClavienDindo I). Only one of the patients were hospitalized due to the post-biopsy complication that need intervention. Conclusion: This is the first study TPPB using Novel Affordable VY probe. The results show clinically insignificant complication without infection. TPPB using Novel Affordable VY probe is feasible and safe.

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the effect of exposure to chlorpyryphos, carbofuran, and cypermethrin on spermatogenesis in adolescent rat. Material & Methods: This study is an experimental study with a post-test only control group design. In this study, 30 adolescent rats aged 30-45 days were randomly divided into 5 groups. Group I was a normal control or without treatment for 21 days (K0), group II was a solvent control group, namely DMSO 5% which was administered subcutaneously for 21 days (KI), group III was a group that received chlorpyrifos 20 mg/kgBW dissolved with DMSO 5% subcutaneously for 21 days (P1), group IV was the group that received carbofuran 0.2 mg/kgBW dissolved with DMSO 5% subcutaneously for 21 days (P2), group V was the group that received cypermethrin 20 mg/kg. kgBW dissolved with 5% DMSO subcutaneously for 21 days (P3). Ipsilateral testicular orchidectomy was performed on all rats to remove the left testicular organ for preparation with Haematoxylin Eosin staining. The spermatogenesis score was calculated based on the Johnsen score in 5 seminiferous tubule visual fields. Data were analyzed using Kruskal Wallis followed by Mann Mitney test. The difference was considered significant at p<0.05. Results: There was a significant decrease in spermatogenesis scores between P1, P2, and P3 against K0 and K1 (p<0.05). On the other hand, there was no significant difference in the decrease in spermatogenesis scores between P1 and P2, P1 and P3, P2 and P3 and K0 and K1 (p>0.05). Conclusion: Exposure to chlorpyrifos, carbofuran, and cypermethrin had an effect on reducing spermatogenesis scores in adolescent rats.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the association of the preoperative Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and postoperative creatinine levels after kidney transplantation, which is a predictor factor for determining early postoperative transplantation complications. Material & Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of 33 patients enrolled in Sardjito General Hospital in Yogyakarta between 2017 and 2020. In this study, we observed the preoperative NLR and compared it with the postoperative creatinine level. The data were compared and analyzed. Results: This study showed that preoperative NLR in these 33 patients was 4.17 + 2.82. Postoperative creatinine levels were 2.38 + 1.75 mg/dL. Postoperative creatinine levels were higher in patients with low preoperative NLR (p=0.00). Besides, the correlation is weak and had a positive correlation direction (r=0.379). Conclusion: This study showed preoperative NLR and the postoperative serum creatinine level is correlated even weakly. NLR could be considered a predictor factor for determining postoperative transplantation complications, and even it still needs further research.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to identify and evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on urological interventions at Soetomo general-academic hospital as the tertiary referral center. Material & Methods: This study is a descriptive-retrospective, single-center study that included all confirmed cases of COVID-19 in urological patients from March 1, 2020 until December 31, 2021 at Soetomo general-academic hospital. We investigated these patients' characteristics, focusing on the demography, clinical data, and eventual outcome. Patient's gender, age, primary urological presentation, COVID-19-related symptom, comorbidity, chest x-ray result, and laboratory value were among the involved variables. The patient's outcome was categorized into death, delayed intervention, or intervention as scheduled. Results: Seventy-seven patients were enrolled, with a mean age of 44.2 years. Fever was found in 42 (54%) patients and respiratory symptoms in 32 (41.5%) patients. An NLR value of >6 was found in 55.8% of patients. A total of 18 patients experienced LUTS (23.4%), 33 patients presented with hematuria (42.9%), and 30 patients had urinary tract infections (39%). Nineteen out of 77 patients (27.3%) died before intervention. On the other hand, surgical intervention in 37 (66%) patients were delayed due to self-isolation, while intervention in 19 (34%) patients was performed as scheduled due to their emergency nature. Conclusion: Urological patients infected with COVID-19 were impacted by the delay of surgical procedures and mortality in the first 22 months of the pandemic.
