Prostate Multiparametric-MRI (mp-MRI) Accuracy for Localization of Clinically S...

Introduction: Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) has been increasingly used to guide prostate cancer management. Most studies are focusing on the detection of prostate cancer rather than localization of tumors within the gland, which is fundamental to plan treatment. We aimed to evaluate mpMRI for accurate localization of tumor nodules and examining the predictors of detection. Methods: Retrospe...

Hepatic Artery Variation and Its Impact on Cephalic Duodenopancreatectomy: A Ca...

Variations in the anatomy of the hepatic artery are frequent and are of great importance in the surgical planning of patients undergoing procedures involving the hepatobiliary and pancreatic systems.

Surveillance as a safe and effective option for treatment of stage I seminoma

Introduction: Stage I seminoma has a very good prognosis, yet approximately 15% have subclinical metastatic disease and will relapse after orchidectomy alone. Several management approaches have been investigated. We aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of real-world patients with stage I seminoma, analysing prognostic factors influencing treatment choice and oncological outcomes. Methods: Retrospective, sing...

Predicting bladder cancer risk in patients with hematuria. A single-centre retr...

Introduction: The presence of blood in the urine should be promptly investigated to rule out urological malignancies, bladder cancer being the most frequent. Given its frequency among general population and the lack of unlimited health resources in an era of cost-effectiveness, it is important to prioritize patients with higher risk of malignancy. Objectives: To identify predictive factors of bladder cancer amo...
