Abstract

Introduction: Chronic kidney disease may progress to ESRD, requiring renal replacement therapy. Updated data on ESRD incidence and mortality in Jambi Province remain limited, highlighting the need for current epidemiological data to guide treatment planning. Objective: To determine whether kidney transplantation services need to be developed in Jambi Province and to determine the prevalence and characteristics of ESRD patients who underwent hemodialysis in Jambi Province. Material & Methods: This descriptive observational study was conducted using secondary data and questionnaire instruments. The secondary data were taken from a total of six hospitals with hemodialysis facilities in Jambi Province, Indonesia. The study sample included 100 people from the two largest hemodialysis centers in Jambi Province. Results: The total of ESRD patients who underwent hemodialysis in Jambi from 2022 increased to 1.306 patients in 2023, with an increase of hemodialysis procedures in 2023(9.2%). The patients who deceased during the hemodialysis phase has also increased, from 259 people in 2022 to 317 people in 2023, with a mortality rate of 25.7%. The results of the questionnaire from 100 respondents revealed that 69% of patients wished to undergo kidney transplant, only 14% were willing to be referred to other provinces due to socioeconomic barriers, 87% of patients agreed that if there is a kidney transplant service in Jambi, it would give them additional hope during hemodialysis, because it might be their turn to undergo a kidney transplant. Conclusion: The incidence of ESRD and the number of hemodialysis procedures in Jambi Province increase annualy, followed by an increase of deceased patients and high mortality rates. This study also revealed that the majority of respondents who underwent hemodialysis hope can undergo kidney transplantation in Jambi Province. Keywords: ESRD, renal replacement therapy, hemodialysis, kidney transplantation, Jambi province.

Abstract

Introduction: Laparoscopic surgery is increasingly prevalent in urology due to improved surgical expertise. This minimally invasive procedure, popularized in the nineteenth century, offers advantages including reduced pain, less bleeding, shorter hospital stays, and improved cosmetic results compared to open surgery. Laparoscopy has expanded to various applications, including nephrectomies, pyeloplasty, ureteral stone removal, nonpalpable testes, and adrenal surgeries. Today, most urological procedures can be performed using laparoscopy, with oncological outcomes comparable to open surgery. Objective: In this retrospective study, we assess urological laparoscopic surgery results and complications in Padang, Indonesia. Material & Methods: A retrospective evaluation was conducted on patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery in Padang, Indonesia, between September 2017 and July 2023. The assessment encompassed preoperative diagnoses, laparoscopic procedure types, operation duration, hospital stays, blood loss, conversion to open surgery, and complications. Results: Of the 155 patients, 105 (67.7%) were male, with a median age of 37 years (range: 1-78). The common laparoscopic surgeries included simple nephrectomy (29%), laparoscopy undescended testis (UDT) (19.3%), renal cyst unroofing (13.5%), and radical nephrectomy (13.5%). Hospital stays ranged from 1 to 7 days, depending on the laparoscopic procedure type. Approximately 12.9% of patients required conversion to open surgery, and no major complications or fatalities were observed. Conclusion: The success and complication rates of laparoscopic surgeries in our city align with those reported in the literature. We firmly believe that technological advancements, increasing experience, and improved patient tolerance make laparoscopic surgery a secure and minimally invasive alternative to open procedures. Keywords: Laparoscopic surgery, minimally invasive surgery, urological surgery.

Abstract

Introduction: Non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is one of the most common urological malignancies, accounting for approximately 75% of newly diagnosed bladder cancer cases. Intravesical instillation therapy is widely utilized as an integral part of NMIBC treatment. Objective: This systematic review aims to synthesize current evidence on the impact of various intravesical instillation therapies, including BCG, gemcitabine, and epirubicin, as well as TURBT, on the HRQoL of NMIBC patients. Material & Methods: The search was carried out using the Google Scholar and PubMed search engines. Search keywords "Quality of life", "non-muscle-invasive-bladder-cancer", and "intravesical instillation". Results: Total of 711 articles were screened by keywords and literature reading. The articles continued screen for the eligibility with exclusion criteria. A total of 8 articles is continued for reading and reviewing process. Conclusion: Studies consistently show that gemcitabine/docetaxel regimens can improve QoL with fewer side effects compared to BCG. TURBT combined with intravesical therapies has demonstrated stable or improved QoL over time, reinforcing its role as a preferred treatment. The use of QoL tools, such as the EORTC QLQ-NMIBC24 and CAVICAVENMI, helps to capture patient-reported outcomes and inform the development of tailored interventions. Keywords: Quality of life, NMIBC, intravesical instillation.

Abstract

Introduction: Synchronous clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and renal oncocytoma (RO) in the same kidney is rare. Objective: The report of dual tumour with ccRCC and RO is rarely seen in the medical literature. We report a case with this rare combination of synchronous tumours in ipsilateral kidney. Case(s) presentation: We report the case of a 66-year-old male with incidentally detected synchronous renal masses in the left kidney- a combination of clear cell renal cell carcinoma and oncocytoma. Discussion: The coexistence of two or more distinct renal tumours in the same kidney, though uncommon, have been reported in the literature, mainly renal oncocytoma in combination with Papillary RCC. The synchronous occurrence of oncocytoma and clear cell renal cell carcinoma is very rarely reported. A thorough review of the English medical literature did not reveal any prior case report documenting this type of synchronous renal tumour except for an online poster describing this combination. This poster was not seen as a peer-reviewed publication in the English medical literature. Hence, to the best of our knowledge, our case may be the first full peer-reviewed report of this type of synchronous renal tumour. Conclusion: A rare combination of renal tumours is being presented for awareness of clinicians and pathologists for correct diagnosis and appropriate management. Keywords: Case report, clear cell renal cell carcinoma, ipsilateral, renal oncocytoma, synchronous renal tumour.
