BACKGROUND: Endoscopic injection (EI) has been considered a minimally invasive option with high success rates. However, in clinical settings where EI has failed, and after repeat injections or worsening clinical presentation, different treatment moda...
Postoperative acute urinary retention (pAUR) is a known occurrence after robot-assisted laparoscopic ureteral reimplantation via an extravesical approach (RALUR-EV). We hypothesized that the risk factor of pAUR after RALUR-EV might be similar to tha...
PURPOSE: Continuous antibiotic prophylaxis reduces the risk of recurrent urinary tract infection by 50% in children with vesicoureteral reflux. However, there may be subgroups in whom continuous antibiotic prophylaxis could be used more selectively. ...
To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing the outcomes of robotic-assisted laparoscopic extravesical ureteric reimplantation (RALUR) with conventional laparoscopic extravesical ureteric reimplantation (LEVUR) for primary vesicoureter...
Missing observations are always a challenging problem that we have to deal with in diseases that require follow-up. In hospital records for vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and recurrent urinary tract infection (rUTI), the number of complete cases is very...
OBJECTIVE: To reliably and quickly diagnose children with posterior urethral valves (PUV), we developed a multi-instance deep learning method to automate image analysis.
To describe our experience with robot-assisted laparoscopic dismembered extravesical cross-trigonal ureteral reimplantation (RADECUR)-a novel minimally invasive surgical technique for treatment of obstructed megaureter. A retrospective review of ou...
INTRODUCTION: Anatomic characteristics of kidneys derived from ultrasound images are potential biomarkers of children with congenital abnormalities of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT), but current methods are limited by the lack of automated proc...
INTRODUCTION: Posterior urethral valve (PUV) is the most common cause of pediatric end stage renal disease (ESRD), imposing a major health burden on medical community caregivers and adversely affecting the quality of life of patients. Chronic kidney ...
