Intentional Omission of Ureteral Stents During Robotic-assisted Intracorporeal Ureteroenteric Anastomosis: Is It Safe and Feasible?

Wei Phin Tan, Patrick Whelan, Leslie A. Deane

Urology > 2017 > 102 > C > 116-120

To describe the surgical technique we used to perform a stentless intracorporeal ureteroenteric anastomosis and to determine the outcomes in this initial series.We performed a retrospective review of a prospective database of all patients undergoing robotic-assisted intracorporeal urinary diversion with stentless ureteroenteric anastomosis between March 2014 and July 2016. Diversions were performed...

Urology > 2016 > 98 > C > 107-112

To evaluate whether periprostatic fat volume and periprostatic fat ratio as determined by multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) correlate with the presence of high-grade prostate cancer.A total of 295 consecutive patients (median age: 64, range: 38-84) underwent mpMRI of the prostate gland between August 2013 and February 2015. All patients underwent a 3 Tesla mpMRI. Using DynaCAD (Invivo,...

Laparoscopic Radical Nephrectomy: Transperitoneal Approach

Leslie A. Deane, David I. Lee, Jaime Landman, Chandru P. Sundaram, more

Current Clinical Urology > Essential Urologic Laparoscopy > 125-148

Radical nephrectomy, as described by Robson et al. in 1963, is the traditional gold standard approach to the management of renal tumors (1). This procedure has an established success rate but is associated with significant postoperative pain and prolonged convalescence, stemming from the flank, subcostal, Chevron or thoraco-abdominal incisions typically used. Laparoscopic radical nephrectomy, as introduced...

Common vitamin D pathway gene variants reveal contrasting effects on serum vitamin D levels in African Americans and European Americans

Ken Batai, Adam B. Murphy, Ebony Shah, Maria Ruden, more

Human Genetics > 2014 > 133 > 11 > 1395-1405

Vitamin D deficiency is more common among African Americans (AAs) than among European Americans (EAs), and epidemiologic evidence links vitamin D status to many health outcomes. Two genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in European populations identified vitamin D pathway gene single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with serum vitamin D [25(OH)D] levels, but a few of these SNPs have been...

Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy: six degrees of haemostasis

Michael K. Louie, Leslie A. Deane, Adam G. Kaplan, Hak J. Lee, more

BJU International > 107 > 9 > 1454 - 1459

Study Type – Therapy (case series)  Level of Evidence 4What’s known on the subject? and What does the study add? Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy is a technically challenging procedure that many urologists do not perform due to the possibility of excess bleeding, increased warm ischemia of the kidney, and difficulty with laparoscopic suturing. This study analyzes one method of laparoscopic partial...

Comparative Study of In Vivo Lymphatic Sealing Capability of the Porcine Thoracic Duct Using Laparoscopic Dissection Devices

Geoffrey N. Box, Hak J. Lee, Jose B. Abraham, Leslie A. Deane, more

The Journal of Urology > 2009 > 181 > 1 > 387-391

Sealing the lymphatic vessels during abdominal and pelvic surgery is important to prevent the leakage of lymphatic fluid and its resultant sequelae. To our knowledge we compared for the first time the quality of lymphatic sealing by each of 4 commonly used laparoscopic dissection devices.A total of 12 domestic pigs were used to test dissecting devices, including monopolar scissors (Ethicon Endo-Surgery,...

Histological Evaluation of Cold Versus Hot Cutting: Clinical Impact on Margin Status for Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy

Jason M. Phillips, Navneet Narula, Leslie A. Deane, Geoffrey N. Box, more

The Journal of Urology > 2008 > 180 > 6 > 2348-2352

While most laparoscopic nephron sparing surgery is performed using cold scissors, energy based devices may also be used. A criticism of this approach has been the potential thermal destruction of the cellular architecture at the tumor margin, precluding the ability to accurately determine whether tumor cells are present. We clinically characterized the histological appearance of tumor margins excised...

Laboratory Evaluation of Laparoscopic Vascular Clamps Using a Load-Cell Device—Are All Clamps the Same?

Hak J. Lee, Geoffrey N. Box, Jose Benito A. Abraham, Erick R. Elchico, more

The Journal of Urology > 2008 > 180 > 4 > 1267-1272

The use of effective vascular clamps is key to successful laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. Based on our clinical experience the occlusive capabilities of vascular clamps appeared to be quite variable. We compared the occlusive force of currently available laparoscopic vascular clamps.The jaw force of 3 laparoscopic vascular clamps (Aesculap®, Klein Surgical Systems, San Antonio, Texas and Karl Storz™)...

In Vitro Evaluation of Nitinol Urological Retrieval Coil and Ureteral Occlusion Device: Retropulsion and Holmium Laser Fragmentation Efficiency

Hak J. Lee, Geoffrey N. Box, Jose Benito A. Abraham, Leslie A. Deane, more

The Journal of Urology > 2008 > 180 > 3 > 969-973

Retropulsion of ureteral stones during laser lithotripsy may result in difficult and incomplete stone fragmentation. The Stone Cone® nitinol urological retrieval coil and the NTrap® nitinol ureteral occlusion device have been introduced into clinical practice to possibly limit stone retropulsion and enhance the efficiency of holmium laser (Convergent Laser Technologies, Alameda, California) stone...

Fungal Urosepsis After Ureteroscopy in Cirrhotic Patients: A Word of Caution

Shawn M. Beck, David S. Finley, Leslie A. Deane

Urology > 2008 > 72 > 2 > 291-293

Fungal sepsis after ureteroscopy (URS) is rarely reported. We report on 2 cases of acute fungemia that developed after routine ureteroscopic stone manipulation in patients with advanced liver cirrhosis. This represents a unique and high-risk population, and, to our knowledge, these are the first such cases reported.We performed a retrospective review of the medical records of 2 patients with Child-Pugh...

Percutaneous Cryoablation of an Upper Pole Renal Mass: Use of Contralateral Single Lung Ventilation to Avoid Pleural and Pulmonary Puncture

Sarah D. Blaschko, Leslie A. Deane, James F. Borin, Duane Vajgrt, more

Urology > 2007 > 69 > 2 > 384.e1-384.e3

A percutaneous approach to cryoablation of renal masses is not without a risk of complications. We describe a case in which selective, single lung intubation of an obese patient with an upper pole left renal mass allowed for percutaneous cryoablation with avoidance of pleural and pulmonary injury. We accomplished this by minimizing the ventilation-induced renal motion and collapsing the ipsilateral...

Review of minimally invasive renal therapies: Needle-based and extracorporeal

Leslie A. Deane, Ralph V. Clayman

Urology > 2006 > 68 > 1 Supplement > 26-37

Management of the small renal mass (≤3 cm) is a topic of significant debate among urologists worldwide. With the advent of needle-based therapies and, less frequently, reports of extracorporeal approaches, along with ongoing refinements in each technology, patients with such masses may have the option of being treated in a truly minimally invasive, or even noninvasive, manner. Herein we review the...
