To quantitate the risk of clinically significant renal function deterioration after radical cystectomy (RC), which could result in supratherapeutic levels of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) and increased risk of bleeding events with the use of extended pharmacologic venous thromboembolism prophylaxis (EPVTEP) after hospital discharge.Patients undergoing RC between 2006 and 2011 were identified...
Double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) is an important tool in the evaluation and management of small-bowel disease. Limited data are available on the safety, findings, and outcomes of DBE in elderly patients.To determine the safety and efficacy of DBE in elderly patients.Single-center, retrospective analysis of prospectively collected database.Open-access, tertiary care referral center.A total of 176 patients...
To describe our technique to recognize and resect renal tumors “ball-valving” into the sinus. Partial nephrectomy (PN) offers a functional advantage over radical nephrectomy for many cases of localized renal cell carcinoma. However, PN is underutilized particularly in anatomically challenging cases. Often unrecognized is the tendency for central renal tumors to herniate into the renal sinus.From our...
We determined whether a relationship exists between primary tumor size and histopathological features in cases of localized renal cancer.SEER data were used to create a cohort of patients who were diagnosed with localized node negative renal masses from 1988 to 2004. Nuclear grade was divided into low and high grade groups. We used a multinomial logistic model to predict the probability of nuclear...
