The study was aimed to determine the diagnostic yield and outcome of transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy (TRUSPB) in a cohort of Sri Lankan men. A prospective study was conducted among 333 (median age: 70 years, range:48-88) men from a sing...
AIMS: To assess the perioperative and short-term functional and oncologic outcomes of the salvage robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (sRARP), after recurrence following primary proton beam therapy for clinically localized prostate cancer.

OBJECTIVES: To develop a model to predict biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy (RP), using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques.
A 71-year-old man with gross hematuria and urinary retention showed a 7×8 cm polycystic mass compressing the prostate on the right ventral side on pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The prostate specific antigen (PSA) level was 6.47 ng/ml. Pros...
OBJECTIVE: Among western males, prostate cancer is the most frequent oncological disease. Since the widespread of PSA, diagnoses in younger adults is increasing. The aim of this study is to analyze pathological features and biochemical recurrence eve...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the positive surgical margin rates and locations in radical prostatectomy among three surgical approaches, including open radical prostatectomy, laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.
PURPOSE: A possible association between metformin use and the development of prostate cancer (PCa) has been reported. However, there is limited information on the impact of long-term metformin use on serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. We i...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this work was to report our experience in robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy for the treatment of localized prostate cancer in a kidney transplant recipient.
