Abstract

Ureteropelvic junction obstructixon (UPJO) management has undergone significant changes in the past few years. The aim of this review is to establish the role of endopyelotomy in the age of laparoscopic and robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP). Open pyeloplasty (OP) has been the gold standard of care for UPJO for the past six decades. Due to lower long-term efficacy, endopyelotomy has failed to replace OP. However, laparoscopic pyeloplasty (LP) has been able to reproduce the high success rates of OP, while also achieving minimal morbidity. Unfortunately, the steep learning curve and technical difficulties have hindered its use. Recently, robot-assisted systems have enabled LP to overcome its disadvantages, and this may render endopyelotomy obsolete. Although LP and RALP are emerging as the gold standard of treatment for UPJO, endopyelotomy could carve out a niche area as a salvage procedure. Endopyelotomy will continue to have a role in the management of UPJO, albeit a smaller one.

Adjuvante Immuntherapie verlängert Leben bei RCC

25.04.2024 Nierenkarzinom Nachrichten

Nun gibt es auch Resultate zum Gesamtüberleben: Eine adjuvante Pembrolizumab-Therapie konnte in einer Phase-3-Studie das Leben von Menschen mit Nierenzellkarzinom deutlich verlängern. Die Sterberate war im Vergleich zu Placebo um 38% geringer.

Bei Senioren mit Prostatakarzinom auf Anämie achten!

24.04.2024 DGIM 2024 Nachrichten

Patienten, die zur Behandlung ihres Prostatakarzinoms eine Androgendeprivationstherapie erhalten, entwickeln nicht selten eine Anämie. Wer ältere Patienten internistisch mitbetreut, sollte auf diese Nebenwirkung achten.

Stufenschema weist Prostatakarzinom zuverlässig nach

22.04.2024 Prostatakarzinom Nachrichten

Erst PSA-Test, dann Kallikrein-Score, schließlich MRT und Biopsie – ein vierstufiges Screening-Schema kann die Zahl der unnötigen Prostatabiopsien erheblich reduzieren: Die Hälfte der Männer, die in einer finnischen Studie eine Biopsie benötigten, hatte einen hochgradigen Tumor.

Harnwegsinfektprophylaxe: Es geht auch ohne Antibiotika

20.04.2024 EAU 2024 Kongressbericht

Beim chronischen Harnwegsinfekt bei Frauen wird bisher meist eine Antibiotikaprophylaxe eingesetzt. Angesichts der zunehmenden Antibiotikaresistenz erweist sich das Antiseptikum Methenamin-Hippurat als vielversprechende Alternative, so die Auswertung einer randomisierten kontrollierten Studie.
