Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of holographic imaging-based digital localization technology in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy（RAPN）for the treatment of completely endophytic renal tumors.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 23 patients with completely endophytic renal tumors who underwent RAPN at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University between December 2022 and December 2024. Patients were divided into two groups based on the use of holographic imaging：the holographic imaging group（16 cases）and the conventional group（7 cases）. There was no statistically significant difference between the holographic imaging group and the conventional group in terms of age［（41.9 ± 13.4）years vs.（46.9 ± 13.4）years］，body mass index［（25.6 ± 4.8）kg/m2 vs.（24.7 ± 3.1）kg/m2］，maximum tumor diameter［（3.1 ± 0.9）cm vs.（3.0 ± 9.0）cm］，tumor volume［（13.2 ± 9.0）cm3 vs.（34.9 ± 9.9）cm3］，R.E.N.A.L. score［（9.4 ± 1.2）points vs.（9.9 ± 0.7）points］，PADUA score［（10.4 ± 0.7）points vs.（9.4 ± 0.7）points］，proportion of T 1a stage patients［12 cases（75.0%）vs. 6 cases（85.7%）］and preoperative serum creatinine［（67.4 ± 9.5）μmol/L vs.（78.0 ± 16.0）μmol/L］. In the holographic group，holographic models were reconstructed based on preoperative enhanced CT or MRI images and used for preoperative planning and intraoperative localization. In the conventional group，surgeons relied on preoperative CT or MRI images for cognitive fusion during RAPN. Perioperative parameters such as warm ischemia time，operative time，tumor localization time，positive surgical margin rate，and renal function were compared between the two groups. Results:The operative time in the holographic group was significantly shorter than that in the conventional group［（152.8 ± 12.9）min vs.（218.4 ± 105.5）min， P = 0.001］. Warm ischemia time［（26.9 ± 3.4）min vs.（30.7 ± 3.8）min， P < 0.001］，localization time［（4.2 ± 0.9）min vs.（8.9 ± 1.7）min， P < 0.001］，and estimated blood loss［（47.0 ± 17.7）ml vs.（128.6 ± 87.8）ml， P < 0.001］were also significantly lower in the holographic group. In the conventional group，one patient underwent radical nephrectomy，while no patient in the holographic imaging group required conversion to radical nephrectomy. No cases of positive surgical margins were identified in either group. Serum creatinine levels measured one month after surgery showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups［（79.5 ± 15.7）μmol /L vs.（104.9 ± 22.5）μmol /L］. Conclusions:The application of holographic imaging-based digital localization technology in RAPN for completely endophytic renal tumors significantly reduces operative time，localization time，warm ischemia time，and intraoperative blood loss. This technology improves surgical efficiency and success rates，offering distinct clinical advantages.

BACKGROUND: LY01005 (Goserelin acetate sustained-release microsphere injection) is a modified gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist injected monthly. This phase III trial study aimed to evaluated the efficacy and safety of LY01005 in Chinese patients with prostate cancer. METHODS: We conducted a randomized controlled, open-label, non-inferiority trial across 49 sites in China. This study included 290 patients with prostate cancer who received either LY01005 or goserelin implants every 28 days for three injections. The primary efficacy endpoints were the percentage of patients with testosterone suppression ≤50 ng/dL at day 29 and the cumulative probability of testosterone ≤50 ng/dL from day 29 to 85. Non-inferiority was prespecified at a margin of -10%. Secondary endpoints included significant castration (≤20 ng/dL), testosterone surge within 72 h following repeated dosing, and changes in luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and prostate specific antigen levels. RESULTS: On day 29, in the LY01005 and goserelin implant groups, testosterone concentrations fell below medical-castration levels in 99.3% (142/143) and 100% (140/140) of patients, respectively, with a difference of -0.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], -3.9% to 2.0%) between the two groups. The cumulative probabilities of maintaining castration from days 29 to 85 were 99.3% and 97.8%, respectively, with a between-group difference of 1.5% (95% CI, -1.3% to 4.4%). Both results met the criterion for non-inferiority. Secondary endpoints were similar between groups. Both treatments were well-tolerated. LY01005 was associated with fewer injection-site reactions than the goserelin implant (0% vs . 1.4% [2/145]). CONCLUSION: LY01005 is as effective as goserelin implants in reducing testosterone to castration levels, with a similar safety profile. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04563936.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of Shuo Tong ureteroscopy(ST-URS) and flexible ureteroscope(FURS)combined with holmium laser lithotripsy in the treatment of upper ureteral calculi with CT numerical value ≥ 1000 HU.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of patients of upper ureteral calculi with CT numberical value≥1000 HU in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University was made from January 2018 to November 2020.There were 61 cases treated with ShuoTong ureteroscopy holmium laser lithotripsy (ST-URS group), including 45 males and 16 females, with 40 on the left and 21 on the right, age of(48.3±12.7) years, body mass index of(24.7±2.7)kg/m 2, the diameter of stone of(1.50±0.45)cm, and the CT numberical value of(1 288.8±179.0)(1 017-1 738)HU. There were 87 cases were treated with flexible ureteroscopy holmium laser lithotripsy (FURS group), including 58 males and 29 females, with 56 on the left and 31 on the right, age of(48.5±13.0) years, body mass index of(24.1±3.8)kg/m 2, the stone diameter of(1.45±0.40)cm, and the CT numberical value of(1 311.3±188.9)(1 009-1 817)HU. There were no significant differences in gender, age, body mass index, the location of stone, the diameter of stone and the CT numberical value of stone( P>0.05)between the two groups. For ST-URS group, a rigid ureteral channel sheath and standard mirror(F7.5/11.5)were placed under direct vision, exiting the standard mirror, leaving the channel sheath, inserting a lithotripsy mirror(F4.5/6.5)and a holmium laser[Power: 8-30 W(0.4-1.0 J/20-30 Hz)], and withdrawing the stone fragments after crushing the stone by "nibbling method" . For FURS group, a hard ureteroscope(F8/9.8)was used to explore the lesion side of the ureter, inserting a guide wire and placing a soft ureteral sheath, then inserting a flexible ureteroscope(F8)for holmium laser lithotripsy, and useing a stone basket to remove larger stone fragments. Ureteral stent was routinely indwelled after the operation. On the day 1 and 1 month after the operation, imaging examinations were performed to evaluate the stone-free rate. No residual stones or the diameter of stone was ≤0.4 cm and no urinary tract infection or any symptoms were defined as stone free. The operation time, blood loss, success rate of stage Ⅰ ureteral access sheath placement, incidence of postoperative complications, stone-free rate(SFR) at 1 day after operation, SFR at 1 month after operation, postoperative hospital stay and hospitalization costs were compared between the two groups. According to the size of calculi, the 2 groups were divided into 2 subgroups(≥1.5 cm and <1.5 cm)in order to make further analysis. The operation time, stone-free rate(SFR) at day 1 after operation and SFR at 1 month after operation were compared between the two groups. Results:The operation time of the ST-URS group was shorter than the FURS group(40.10 min vs. 49.43 min, P=0.020), and the incidence of postoperative complications was lower than the FURS group[3.28%(2/61)vs. 13.79%(12/87), P=0.031]. The SFR at day 1 after operation was significantly higher than the FURS group[60.7%(37/61)vs. 25.3%(22/87), P<0.01], and the hospitalization cost was lower than that of the FURS group(27 686 yuan vs. 32 281 yuan, P<0.010). There were no significant differences in the blood loss[(4.92±9.51)ml vs.(3.95±6.04)ml, P=0.452], success rate of stageⅠureteral access sheath placement[ 96.7%(59/61)vs. 96.6%(84/87), P=1.000], SFR at 1 month after operation[81.97%(50/61) vs. 75.86%(66/87), P=0.375] and postoperative hospital stay[(2.5±1.4)d vs.(2.4±0.8)d, P=0.543] between the two groups. When the size of calculi was ≥1.5cm, the operation time of the ST-URS group was shorter than the FURS group (43.67 min vs 55.00 min), the SFR at 1 day after operation was higher than the FURS group[40.00%(12/30)vs. 9.38%(3/32)], and the above differences are all statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the FURS, for the treatment of upper ureteral calculi with CT numerical value ≥1000 HU, the ST-URS has shorter in operative time, lower in hospitalization cost and incidence of postoperative complications and higher SFR at day 1 after operation. The ST-URS is a safe and effective surgical technique, which is superior in the treatment of larger(≥1.5 cm) stones.

Objective:To establish surgical difficulty scoring system of partial nephrectomy based on holographic imaging and explore its application value in partial nephrectomy.Methods:A total of 184 patients including 110 males and 74 females with renal tumors diagnosed as stage cT 1 to cT 2 before surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University from October 2019 to January 2022 were included. Among the 184 patients, 141 patients were treated with partial nephrectomy and 43 patients were treated with radical nephrectomy (3 partial nephrectomies were finally changed to radical nephrectomies due to vascular and tumor location). 60 patients had hypertension. 24 patients had diabetes. 7 patients had hyperuricemia. The median age was 55(47, 62) years. The median BMI was 23.7(21.8, 26.4) kg/m 2. The median maximum tumor diameter was 3.9(2.9, 5.2) cm. The median preoperative eGFR was 99.7(83.4, 114.2) ml/(min·1.73m 2). The median R. E.N.A.L. score was 8(6, 9). The median PADUA score was 9(8, 10). 153 patients were diagnosed as stage cT 1 and 31 patients were diagnosed as stage cT 2. The hologram reconstruction was performed according to preoperative CT or MRI examination. The maximum diameter of the tumor in the kidney (D), the compression degree of the renal segmental vessels by tumor(C), the area of the renal sinus occupied by tumor(O) and the mass of exophytic rate(M) were comprehensively considered and finally constituted the difficulty scoring system named DCOM score for partial nephrectomy. The DCOM score divided the complexity of tumor surgery into mild (4-6 points), moderate (7-8 points) and high (≥ 9 points). Meanwhile, the MIC (surgical margins are negative, WIT is <20 min, and no major complications)was used to evaluate the overall surgical effect. The DCOM, R. E.N.A.L. and PADUA scores were performed on all patients and compared with each other to evaluate the surgical effect of DCOM score in partial nephrectomy. Results:All surgeries in this study were successfully completed, including 141 partial nephrectomies and 43 radical nephrectomies. The DCOM score was 10(9, 11) for radical nephrectomy and 6(5, 8) for partial nephrectomy, and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.001). There were 23 patients (37.7%) in highly complex group, 39 patients (88.6%) in moderately complex group and 79 patients (100.0%) in mildly complex group underwent partial nephrectomy, respectively. According to multifactorial analysis, patients in highly and moderately complex group of DCOM score had 8.88 times ( P=0.001) and 1.76 times ( P=0.005) less reach MIC than those in mildly complex group, respectively. Patients in highly and moderately complex group of PADUA score had 4.86 times ( P=0.005)and 3.41 times ( P=0.006)less reach MIC than patients in mildly complex group of DCOM score, respectively. What’s more, patients in moderately complex group of R. E.N.A.L. score had 3.11 times ( P=0.003) less reach MIC than patients in mildly complex group of DCOM score. In the ROC curves to predict MIC achievement, the AUC values of R. E.N.A.L., PADUA and DCOM scores were 0.657, 0.655 and 0.746, respectively. Comparing:R. E.N.A.L. score with DCOM score, the AUC value was statistically significant ( P=0.025). Conclusions The surgical difficulty scoring system (DCOM score) based on holographic imaging can predict the outcome of partial nephrectomy, but further verification is needed.

Objective:To compare the performance and surgical outcomes of domestic single-use digital flexible ureteroscopes with reusable digital flexible ureteroscopes in treatment of upper urinary stones.Methods:A prospective, single-blind, multicenter and randomized controlled study was performed from September 2018 to June 2019. Eligible patients were randomly assigned, in a ratio of 1∶1, to either experimental group or control group. The inclusion criteria for the study were: aged 18-75 years, solitary upper urinary stone with stone size between 0.8 and 2.0 cm and CT value less than 1 400 HU, negative preoperative urine culture and normal renal function. Exclusion criteria included: patients with acute urinary tract infection, intransitable urethral strictures, impassable ureteropelvic junction obstructions, systemic hemorrhagic disease, coagulation function abnormalities or bleeding tendency, severe hypertension or cardiopulmonary insufficiency, severe hip malformation and difficulty in meeting the demand of operation position and pregnant and lactation women. The device used in the experimental group was a domestic single-use digital flexible ureteroscope, and the device used in the control group was an imported Olympus digital flexible ureteroscope. The qualified rate of clinical comprehensive evaluation (including image quality and operational performance), the rate of device failure, the stone-free rate and the occurrence rate of adverse events (including increase in urine red blood cell and white blood cell counts, postoperative hematuria, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and fever) in the two groups were recorded.Results:A total of 186 eligible study cases were collected from the People's Hospital of Wuhan University, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University, and the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University. 90 cases in the final experimental group and 88 cases in the control group completed the trial and were included in the evaluation. There were no statistically significant differences among age [(48.40±11.36) vs. (47.40±12.53)years old, P=0.594], male to female ratio (62/28 vs. 56/32, P =0.874), BMI [(24.8±2.1) kg/m 2 vs. (25.1±2.0)kg/m 2,P =0.331], hydronephrosis (no/slight vs. mild/severe) (62/28 vs. 65/23, P =0.874), stone location and stone size [(12.8±4.7) mm vs. (11.9±5.2) mm, P =0.227]. There were no significant differences in terms of qualified rate of clinical comprehensive evaluation [98.9% (89/90) vs. 100.0% (88/88), P =0.991], lithotripsy success rate [84.4% (76/90) vs. 84.1% (74/88), P =0.888], device failure/defect rate (both 0%), and the incidence of adverse events [50.0% (45/90) vs. 52.0% (51/88), P =0.894]. The highest incidence of adverse events in two groups was the increase of red blood cells and white blood cells of routine urine after operation. There was no serious adverse event in the experimental group and 1 serious adverse event in the control group. Conclusions:There was no significant difference in image quality, device failure/defect rate, lithotripsy success rate, and adverse event rate between single-use digital flexible ureteroscopes and reusable digital flexible ureteroscopes for lithotripsy of upper ureteral and pelvic stones. Domestic single-use digital flexible ureteroscopes have good safety and effectiveness in the treatment and microscopy of upper urinary tract stones.

In recent years, the incidence of single-gene nephrolithiasis has been increasing year by year. With the application of whole-genome analysis and whole-exome sequencing technology, the etiology of single-gene mutations leading to the development of urinary calculi has been extensively verified. Therefore, this article reviews the research on urinary calculi-related genetic diseases at home and abroad, and introduces transport proteins and channels; ions, protons and amino acids. The role of urinary calculi in the majority of clinicians realizes the significance of genetic testing in such diseases, thereby increasing the understanding of genetically related urinary calculi and improving the level of clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of holographic image navigation in urological laparoscopic and robotic surgery.Methods The data of patients were reviewed retrospectively for whom accepted holographic image navigation laparoscopic and robotic surgery from Jan.2019 to Dec.2019 in Beijing United Family Hospital and other 18 medical centers,including 78 cases of renal tumor,2 cases of bladder cancer,2 cases of adrenal gland tumor,1 cases of renal cyst,1 case of prostate cancer,1 case of sweat gland carcinoma with lymph node metastasis,1 case of pelvic metastasis after radical cystectomy.All the patients underwent operations.In the laparoscopic surgery group,there were 27 cases of partial nephrectomy,1 case of radical prostatectomy,2 cases of radical cystectomy and 2 cases of adrenalectomy.In the da Vinci robotic surgery group of 54 cases,there were 51 cases of partial nephrectomy,1 case of retroperitoneal lymph node dissection,1 case of retroperitoneal bilateral renal cyst deroofing and 1 case of resection of pelvic metastasis.There were 41 partial nephrectomy patients with available clinical data for statistic,with a median age of 53.5 years (range 24-76),including 26 males and 15 females.The median R.E.N.A.L score was 7.8 (range 4-11).Before the operation,the engineers established the holographic image based on the contrast CT images and reports.The surgeon applied the holographic image for preoperative planning.During the operation,the navigation was achieved by real time fusing holographic images with the laparoscopic surgery images in the screen.Results All the procedures had been complete uneventfully.The holographic images helped surgeon in understanding the visual three-dimension structure and relation of vessels supplying tumor or resection tissue,lymph nodes and nerves.By manipulating the holographic images extracorporeally,the fused image guide surgeons about location vessel,lymph node and other important structure and then facilitate the delicate dissection.For the 41 cases with available clinical data including 23 cases of robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy and 18 cases of laparoscopic nephrectomy,the median operation time was 140 (range 50-225) min,the median warm ischemia time was 23 (range 14-60) min,the median blood loss was 80(range 5-1 200) ml.In the robotic surgery group,the median operation time was 140 (range 50-215)min,the median warm i schemia time was 21 (range 17-40)min,the median blood loss was 150(range 30-1 200)ml.In the laparoscopic surgery group,the median operation time was 160(range 80-225)min,the median warm ischemia time was 25 (range 14-60)min,the median blood loss was 50 (range 5-1 200) ml.All the patients had no adjacent organ injury during operation.There were 2 cases with Clavien Ⅱ complications.One required transfusion and the other one suffered hematoma post-operation.However,the tumors were located in the renal hilus for these 2 cases and the R.E.N.A.L scores were both 11.Conclusions Holographic image navigation can help location and recognize important anatomic structures during the surgical procedures..This technique will reduce the tissue injury,decrease the complications and improve the success rate of surgery.

Objective: To explore a predictive nomogram for the result of prostate biopsy based on Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System version 2(PI-RADS v2)combined with prostate specific antigen (PSA) and its related parameters, and to assess its ability to diagnose prostate cancer by internal validation. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 509 patients who underwent transrectal prostate biopsy guided by ultrasound during the period from January 2014 to December 2018 in the Department of Urology, First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University. In 509 cases, the mean age was (68.1±7.2) years. The mean prostate volume(PV) was (55.8±30.7) ml. The mean tPSA value was (19.86±18.94) ng/ml. The mean value of fPSA was (2.63±3.60) ng/ml and the mean f/tPSA was 0.14±0.08. The mean PSAD was (0.46±0.52) ng/ml2. Based on the PI-RADS v2, score 1 point have 37 cases, score 2 point have 131 cases, score 3 point have 152 cases, score 4 point have 102 cases, score 5 point have 87 cases. Of these patients, we randomly selected 80% (407 cases) as development group, and the other 20% (102 cases) as validation group. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis of the development group was performed to identify the independent influence factors that can predict prostate cancer (PCa), thereby establishing a predictive model for the result of prostate biopsy. In the development group, validation group and tPSA was between 4.1-20.0 ng/ml, the model was evaluated by analyzing the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve and decision curve, and compared to PSA, fPSA, f/tPSA, PSAD, PI-RADS v2. Results: Among the 509 patients enrolled in the study, the detection rate of PCa was 43.0% (219/509). In the development group, the logistic regression analysis demonstrated that patient age (OR=1.113), f/tPSA (OR=0.004), PV (OR=0.986), PSAD (OR=11.023), digital rectal examination (DRE) texture (OR=2.295), transabdominal ultrasound (TAUS) with or without hypoechoic (OR=2.089), and PI-RADS v2 (OR=1.920) were independent factors for PCa (P<0.05). The nomogram based on all variables was established. In the development group, the area under the curve (AUC) of the model (0.883) was greater than those of tPSA (0.686), fPSA (0.593), f/tPSA (0.626), PSAD (0.777), PI-RADS v2 (0.761). In the validation group, the area under the curve of the model (0.839) was greater than those of tPSA (0.758), fPSA (0.666), f/tPSA (0.648), PSAD (0.832), PI-RADS v2 (0.803). In patients whose tPSA was between 4.1-20.0 ng/ml, the area under the curve of the model (0.801) was greater than those of tPSA (0.570), fPSA (0.426), f/tPSA (0.657), PSAD (0.707), PI-RADS v2 (0.701). The calibration curve of the nomogram indicated that the prediction curve was basically fitted to the standard curve, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow showed thatχ²=5.434, P=0.710, both suggested that the prediction model had better calibration ability. The decision curve showed that the model based on PI-RADS v2 had high clinical application value. Conclusions The nomogram based on PI-RADS v2 had a high predictive value for prostate cancer and could significantly improve the diagnostic performance. It had better diagnostic value than PSA and its related parameters. It also provided important guidance for the prostate cancer on clinical treatment of patients to some extent.

Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy of female urethral diverticulum resection and reconstruction under the folding position. Methods: Retrospective analysis of 22 female patients with urethral diverticulum was performed from September 2010 to December 2018. There were 12 cases of simple diverticulum, 6 cases of horseshoe diverticulum, 4 cases of circumferential diverticulum, aged from 26 to 72 years, with an average of 46.2 years, whose BMI ranged from 24.2 to 34.8 kg/m², with an average of 30.4 kg/m². Eleven cases (50%) presented with dysuria, 10 cases (45.5%) with repeated urinary tract infections, 7 cases (31.2%) with difficulty of voiding, 10 cases (45.5%) with urethral secretion, 9 cases (40.1%) with difficulty of sexual intercourse, and 4 cases (18.2%) without symptoms. Unlike the traditional surgical procedure under the lithotomy position, the folding position was used to expose the vagina and separate the vaginal mucosa by longitudinal incision, and the diverticulum was completely removed to the neck. The peri-operative complications and efficacy were recorded. Results: All 22 cases underwent successful procedures, and were followed up for 25.2 months on average (ranged 8 to 42 months). One of them suffered from weak stream 2 months after operation, with residual urine volume of 100ml by ultrasonography. Her symptoms improved after dilatation of the urethra. Two cases suffered from different degrees of lower urinary tract storage symptoms 1 month after the operation (1 case of mild dysuria and 1 case of urinary tract infection), who improved after oral administration of levofloxacin tablets for 3-5 days. All patients had no urethral diverticulum recurrence 3 months later by ultrasonography, half a year by cystoscopy, and every six months by ultrasonography. Conclusions Surgical treatment is still the best choice for patients with urethral diverticulum. The success rate of transvaginal urethral diverticulum reconstruction with a Jackknife position is high, postoperative recurrence rate is low, and postoperative complications are few.
