Objective: This study presents our initial experience with extraperitoneal and transperitoneal laparoscopic partial cystectomy (LPC) in the treatment of benign non-urothelial bladder tumors. Methods: Eleven patients with benign non-urothelial bladder tumors underwent extraperitoneal or transperitoneal LPC. The five cases with tumors located on the anterior/anterolateral bladder wall received the extraperitoneal approach. The six cases with tumors located around the bladder dome or over the posterior bladder wall received the transperitoneal approach. Key perioperative parameters were recorded. Results: All patients underwent laparoscopic resection smoothly without requiring a conversion to a traditional open procedure, and no patient displayed perioperative complications. Pathology showed benign non-urothelial bladder tumors with normal margins in all eleven patients, including five leiomyoma cases, three pheochromocytoma cases, two paraganglioma cases and one inflammatory fibrous histiocytoma case. Follow-up cystoscopy and imaging studies in all eleven patients (mean follow-up period 32 months) revealed neither residual nor local recurrence. Conclusions: LPC is safe and feasible in select patients with benign non-urothelial bladder tumors and yields satisfactory oncological and functional results. Extraperitoneal LPC should be preferred for lesions located on the anterior/anterolateral bladder wall, while transperitoneal LPC should be preferred for lesions around the bladder dome or over the posterior bladder wall.

The aim of this study was to verify the validity, feasibility, and the functional results, by uroflowmetry, of Tubularized proximallyincised plate technique in selected case of distal/midshaft hypospadias. Out of 120 patients scheduled to undergo TIP (or Snodgrass) procedure, 23 were selected between January 2013 and January 2016 (19.1%). This case series comprised 16 patients with distal and 7 with midshaft hypospadias. Mean age at surgery was 2.9 years. The inclusion criteria were a deep and wide glandular groove and a proximal narrow urethral plate. The procedure was carried out as described by Snodgrass but the incision of the urethral plate, including the mucosal and submucosal tissue, was made only proximally, between the original meatus and the glandular groove in no case extending to the entire length of the plate. Postoperatively a foley catheter was left in place from 4 to 7 days. Uroflowmetry was performed when the patients age ranged from 2.5 to 5.7 years (mean age 3.11 years and mean follow-up 1.8 years, body surface 2). No patient presented fistulas nor perioperative complications. At uroflowmetry, eighteen patients presented values above the 25<sup>th</sup> percentile and 5 showed a borderline flow. All patients in this group remained stable without urinary symptoms. In selected cases, the tubularized proximally-incised plate yields satisfactory cosmetic and functional results for the treatment of midshaft proximal hypospadias. A long-term follow-up study is needed for further evaluation. Patient selection is crucial for the success of this technique.

Pheochromocytoma of the bladder is a rare bladder tumor. We report a case of an 80-year-old female who presents with recurrent bladder tumors consistent with pheochromocytoma of the bladder, discovered 10 years post-resection of a prior pheochromocytoma of the urinary bladder. She was treated with partial cystectomy and was found to be symp tom free at 6-month follow-up.

Benign tumoral bladder tumors in children are extremely rare. The inflammatory condition determined by the presence of glandular cystitis and intestinal metaplasia, coexisting or separately, can be a determinant factor for the development of these bladder masses. Both entities have been suggested to represent a precursor for bladder adenocarcinoma. We present the case of an autistic adolescent that presented with a polypoid bladder mass and urinary tract infection. We performed a cystoscopic examination and biopsy of the tumor and due to the large dimensions and preliminary histological results we decided to perform a laparotomy and excision of the mass and bladder wall that was attached to. Post operatory evolution and follow-up showed no recurrence or progression of the dysplasia towards adenocarcinoma.

Introduction: Since Longo First described it in 1998, Stapled Hemorrhoidectomy has been emerging as the procedure of choice for symtomatic hemorrhoid. Several studies have shown it to be a safe, effective and relative complication free procedure. The aim of this study was to determine the suitability of (SH) as a day cas procedure at Hue University Hospital. Methods: From Decembre 2009 to April 2012, 384 patients with third- degree and fourth-degree hemorrhoids who underwent Stapled Hemorrhoidectomy were included in this study. Parameters recorded included postoperative complications, analegic requirements, duration of hospital stay and patient satisfaction. Follow-up was performed at 1 month and 3 months post-operative. Results: Of the 384 patients that underwent a Stapled Hemorrhoidectomy 252 (65,7%) were male and 132 (34,3%) were female. The mean age was 47,5 years (range 17-76 years. Duration of hospital stay: The mean day was 2,82 ± 1,15 days (range 1-6 days). There were no perioperative complications. There was one case postoperative complication: hemorrhage; Follow-up after surgery: 286 (74,4%) patients had less anal pain, 78 (20,3%) patients had moderate anal pain, 3 (0,8%) patients had urinary retention; Follow-up after one month: good for 325 (84,6%) patients, average for 59 (15,4%) patients; Follow-up after three months: good for 362 (94,3%) patients, average for 22 (5,7%) patients. Conclusion: Our present study shows that Stapled Hemorrhoidectomy is a safe, reduced postoperative pain, shorter hospital stay and a faster return to unrestricted daily activity

Introduction: Periacetabular reconstruction after resection of primary bone tumour is a very demanding procedure. They are frequently associated with scarce functional results and a high rate of complications. We report a series of patients with periacetabular resections for primary bone tumours and reconstruction with a porous tantalum (PT) acetabular cup (AC). Materials and methods: 27 patients (median age 30 years) were included, being affected by primary bone tumours of the pelvis and treated with peri-acetabular resection and reconstruction with a PT AC. The diagnoses were 13 osteosarcomas, 7 chondrosarcomas and 7 Ewing sarcomas. Function was assessed with the Harris Hip Score and complications were classified according to Zeifang. Results: The median follow-up was 70 months. 1 patient required removal of the PT AC because of implant associated infection 55 months after surgery. There was 1 hip dislocation and no case of aseptic loosening. At final follow-up, the median HHS was 81 points (range 48–92). Conclusions: The used PT AC had good medium-term survival rates and good functional results. This technique is a viable reconstructive option after resections of periacetabular primary bone sarcomas.

The Mirizzi syndrome (MS) is an impacted stone in the cystic duct or Hartmann’s pouch that mechanically obstructs the common bile duct (CBD). We would like to report laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (SC) and resection of cholecystocolic fistula by the help of Tri-Staple™in a case with type V MS and cholecystocolic fistula, for first time in the literature. A 24-year-old man was admitted to emergency department with the complaint of abdominal pain, intermittent fever, jaundice, and diarrhea. Two months ago with the same complaint, ERCP was performed. Laparoscopic resection of cholecystocolic fistula and subtotal cholecystectomy were performed by the help of Tri-Staple. At the eight-month follow-up, he was symptom-free with normal liver function tests. In a patient with type V MS and cholecystocolic fistula, laparoscopic resection of cholecystocolic fistula and SC can be performed by using Tri-Staple safely.

Two cases of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the bladder are reported here. Both patients were male and presented with macroscopic hematuria; in the first case terminal hematuria was associated with irritative voiding symptoms. The second case was a smoker with hematuria unresponsive to medical treatment and anemia. Clinical presentation, pathological features, treatment, and prognosis are discussed. Due to rarity of this pathological condition, there are no guidelines concerning treatment and follow-up. We present our follow-up scheme and highlight the use of laparoscopic partial cystectomy as a successful treatment approach.

Objective: To reassess the double continence technique for open retropubic radical prostatectomy, proposed by Malizia and employed by Pagano et al., with the “tension free continuum-urethral anastomosis” (T.F.C.U.A.) personal modification and the use of image magnification optical systems and appropriate and delicate surgical tools. Materials and methods: A total of 173 radical retropubic prostatectomies, performed by the same surgeon, were evaluated in terms of early and late continence. Results: The presence of residual prostate cancer cells within the muscle layer was always excluded by the histopathological examination that also demonstrated that the muscle layer was well represented; satisfactory outcomes were obtained in terms of both early urinary continence (60%) and urinary continence at 6-12 month follow-up (92.4% for the whole series and 97.2% for the last series of patients). Conclusions: The “tension free” anastomosis obtained by the suspension of the anterior bladder wall to the the pubis along the median line allowed to achieve satisfactory outcomes in terms of urinary continence, even if these data obviously need to be confirmed by other series and comparative trials.

Single tooth implant restorations in the aesthetic area are a demanding challenge. If a complete osseointegration is mandatory, the final result has to result in a higher standard of biomimetic and soft tissue health among natural teeth. This outcome is traditionally pursued by cementing crowns over individualized abutments. However, in recent years, the need for controlling peri-implant health and the preference towards a retrievable solution has led to an increase in screw-retained crowns, which is not always applicable when the implant axis is not ideal. In the aesthetic area, the use of a novel technical solution represented by the angled screw channel (ASC) of the abutment has been proposed in order to match the advantages of the screwed solution with the aesthetic demands. The aim of this study was to compare ASC crowns to cemented crowns (CC) in single implant restorations using the white esthetic score (WES) and pink esthetic score (PES) at the crown delivery and at a follow-up of a minimum of 2 years. Peri-implant health and marginal bone loss (MBL) were also evaluated. The mean follow-up was 44.3 months, with a mean MBL of 0.22 mm in the ASC group and 0.29 mm in the CC group. The total WES/PES score was 16.6 for ASC, compared with 17.3 for CC at baseline, and 16.2 and 17.1, respectively, at follow-up. Both of the groups reached a high WES/PES, and this was maintained over time, without signs of peri-implant diseases or bone loss, regardless of the choice of connection. In conclusion, ASC can be adopted in cases where the implant axis is not ideal, with aesthetic and functional results that are comparable to implants restored by cemented crowns.
