Effect of DUA on surgical outcomes of HoLEP

Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) become increasingly common in men as they age, with over 70–90% of men aged over 80 experiencing these issues. Detrusor underactivity (DUA) is characterised by a weakened bladder contraction, leading to prolonged or incomplete bladder...

How can we reduce morbidity after RARC with intracorporeal neobladder?

Robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) is a complex procedure with high postoperative morbidity, especially when combined with neobladder reconstruction, which has a higher complication rate compared to other urinary diversions. To minimise these complications, it is crucial to understand their nature...

Why defining and managing DUST matters in endourology

In endourology, defining ‘DUST’ and optimising its management is vital for improving stone-free rates (SFR) and reducing complications. Residual fragments, even those ≤4mm, can act as a nidus for infection, obstruction, and recurrence. Studies have shown that 30% of patients...

Accuracy of cognitive vs software-guided MRI-targeted biopsy

The FUTURE randomised trial showed no difference in prostate cancer (PCa) detection between cognitive, in-bore and software guided MRI-targeted biopsy (TBx) techniques, a finding supported by meta-analyses and reflected in European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines. However, whether any TBx...

Evaluating the ‘two-week wait pathway’ for testicular cancer

The ‘Two-Week Wait’ (2WW) pathway is central to the NHS cancer strategy, ensuring rapid review of suspected malignancies. For testicular cancer, NICE NG12 advises urgent referral based solely on clinical suspicion (typically a solid, non-transilluminable scrotal mass) without requiring prior...

An algorithm for the management of haemorrhagic cystitis

Haemorrhagic cystitis (HC) can be one of the most difficult conditions to treat in urological practice. It is characterised by intractable bleeding from the bladder and may be acute or chronic. The most frequently reported causal factors are radiotherapy (RT)...

Modern management of small renal masses

With the advent of widespread cross-sectional imaging there has been a surge in incidental detection of small renal masses (SRMs) and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is now the seventh most common cancer in the UK. Whilst surgical excision for larger...

Current developments and innovations of the WASHOUT study: A large-scale observational study of inpatient haematuria

Unscheduled haematuria admissions ranks among the most common urological emergencies, yet its investigation and management still lack standardisation. The readmission rate for haematuria is substantial, with reports as high as 8%, and the median hospital stay for such cases in...

BAUS Web App

The British Association of Urological Surgeons (BAUS) launched a new web app in June 2024 [1] at their annual meeting in Birmingham. This innovative platform is designed to enhance the user experience for members.Unlike traditional apps, the BAUS web app...

Onco-fertility: a review

Subfertility or infertility is a major problem affecting men diagnosed with testicular cancer (TC) either due to the disease itself [1], or as a result of management [2]. TC is the most prevalent cancer affecting men of reproductive age [3]....

How an ergonomic design is helping women overcome barriers in ISC

Urinary incontinence, or loss of bladder control, is a frustrating problem for millions of people. Never knowing when and where one might have an accident can affect everything: from work to family and social life. It happens to both men...

Renal oncocytoma: Diagnosis and surveillance strategy

Renal oncocytoma is one of the most common benign renal neoplasms, accounting for around 3–7% of all renal tumours, and up to 18% of all small renal masses (SRMs) measuring less than 4cm [1, 2]. Most oncocytomas are asymptomatic and...
