Introduction
Abdominal wall closure defects represent a cause of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing laparotomy.
Objective
The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors contributing to the appearance of abdominal wall closure defects in open radical cystectomy.
Methods
A retrospective, analytical, observational, descriptive study and multivariate analysis was conducted including patients who underwent open radical cystectomy for bladder cancer at the General University Hospital of Castellón between January 2018 and December 2021.
Results
A total of 80 patients were included. The mean age was 70 years, with 86.3% being men. Sixteen presented with an evisceration (20%). Risk factors in the multivariate analysis were age, history of vascular or coronary disease, preoperative albumin, hemodynamic instability, and surgical time. Eight patients presented with an eventration (10%). A higher body mass index and a lower preoperative hemoglobin level were associated with eventration.
Conclusion
The risk factors associated with abdominal wall closure defects are identifiable and preventable.

Objective
To summarize the key findings of occupational exposures during aluminium production in cohort studies on bladder cancer published between 1979 and 2023.
Materials and methods
This systematic review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines and registered in PROSPERO. Study quality was evaluated using the Newcastle–Ottawa scale.
Results
The literature search identified 24 cohort studies examining the standardized incidence (SIR) and mortality ratios (SMR) of bladder cancer among aluminum production workers. Five of the 13 studies examined SIR (95% CI) and three of the 16 studies that examined SMR (95% CI) reported a statistically significant increased risk of bladder cancer among aluminum production workers. The highest SIR was recorded in the secondary aluminum smelter (2.85; 95% CI: 1.23–5.62), suggesting a significantly elevated risk. In aluminum reduction plants, the SIR was 1.82 (95% CI: 1.59–2.07), while in Söderberg plants, it was 1.69 (95% CI: 1.06–2.57) and 1.4 (95% CI: 1.0–1.9), respectively. For aluminum plants overall, the SIR was 1.30 (95% CI: 1.10–1.50). The results indicate an increased risk, with the highest SMR of 5.90 (95% CI: 1.58–15.1), suggesting a significantly elevated hazard in the secondary aluminum smelter. The other values—3.47 (95% CI: 1.25–9.62) for the aluminum smelter and 2.24 (95% CI: 1.77–2.79) for the aluminum reduction plant—also indicate an increased risk, albeit with varying degrees of statistical certainty.
Conclusion
The International Agency for Research on Cancer has classified aluminum production as a Group 1 carcinogenic activity, providing strong evidence of its association with bladder cancer. The studies primarily included workers from Prebake, Söderberg, and aluminum reduction plants. Some findings indicate a significant yet variable risk across different segments of aluminum production. However, the review did not clearly confirm an increased risk of bladder cancer in specific aluminum-related occupations. Aluminum exposure may influence the lifetime risk of bladder cancer among these workers.

Introduction
Clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) is a technique used for bladder emptying in patients with neurogenic or non-neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction. CIC is considered the best option for most patients with dysfunctional voiding, as it improves their quality of life with a low complication rate. However, there is considerable variability in the management of CIC across regions and countries, as well as a lack of standardized guidelines. This study aims to determine the patient profile, associated complications and resource utilization related to the procedure.
Methods
This descriptive, multicenter, cross-sectional study was conducted in the functional urology and urodynamics units of 23 hospitals across Spain between April 2019 and April 2021. Patient characteristics were collected and stored in the Multicenter Studies Research Platform of the Spanish Urology Association.
Results
This study included 573 CIC users, with a mean age of 54.1 years (SD 19.1). Of the participants, 78.6% lived in urban areas, and 53.9% had additional comorbidities. The primary indication for CIC was spinal cord injury (29.5%), followed by hypocontractile neurogenic bladder (20.8%). Most patients performed one CIC per day (87.3%), with a median of 3. The most common complication observed was urinary tract infection (51.8%). Additionally, 95.3% of patients attended at least one urology consultation in the past year.
Conclusions
CIC is mostly indicated for neurological pathologies, and urinary tract infection is the most common associated complication. CIC is a fundamental procedure in functional urology units and is linked to significant healthcare resource consumption. Knowledge on the patient profile and the characteristics associated with CIC is crucial for comprehensive patient management, as it helps reduce and prevent potential complications while also informing healthcare strategies for more efficient resource management.

Objective
To evaluate outcomes of same sitting bilateral retrograde intrarenal surgery for kidney stone in patients aged ≥ 70 years.
Methods
We retrospectively reviewed patients with bilateral kidney stones who underwent same sitting bilateral retrograde intrarenal surgery in 21 centers (January 2015-June 2022). Inclusion criteria: patients aged ≥ 70 years, bilateral kidney stones diagnosed due to either unilateral or bilateral symptomatic presentation. Patients were divided into 2 groups: group 1, patients aged 70-74 years, group 2, patients aged ≥ 75 years.
Results
There were 86 patients in group 1 and 60 patients in group 2. There was no difference between the groups for gender, ASA score, BMI, comorbidities, presenting symptoms, and positive preoperative urine culture. Group 2 had a significantly higher proportion of recurrent stone formers (54.7 vs. 35.0%, p = 0.03), and a higher proportion of bilaterally pre-stented patients were present in group 2 (37.9 vs. 18.6%). There was no difference in total operation time and rate of post-operative uni- and bilateral stent positioning. Surgery was discontinued in 15.1% and 18.3% of cases in groups 1 and 2, respectively (p = 0.773). Median length of postoperative stay was 2 days in both groups. The most frequent complication was fever requiring antibiotics and prolonged admission (10.5% in group 1 and 11.7% in group 2, p > 0.99). Sepsis rate was 2.3% patients in group 1 and none in group 2. In group 1, 1.2% required a blood transfusion due to hematuria. Bilateral stone-free rate was similar (60.0 vs. 47.7%, p = 0.194) in both groups.
Conclusions
Same sitting bilateral retrograde intrarenal surgery in elderly patients demonstrated an acceptable safety profile with good bilateral stone-free rate.

Introduction
Testicular cancer accounts for 5% of urological tumors, with an incidence of 5.6 cases per 100,000 men per year in Europe. Salvage retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy is the standard surgery for persistent retroperitoneal masses after chemotherapy. The advent of minimally invasive surgery is changing the therapeutic approach. The objective is to present our initial experience with the transmesocolic robotic approach for the surgical management of these masses.
Methods
We report the perioperative and oncological outcomes of four patients affected by non-seminomatous germ cell tumors who were treated with transmesocolic robotic left para-aortic retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy.
Results
The surgical time for the first case was 220 minutes, and the average surgical time for the remaining cases was 120 minutes (SD: 15). Estimated blood loss was 82.5 ml (SD: 79.3). No intraoperative or postoperative complications were observed. Pathological anatomy revealed post-pubertal teratoma (30%) and necrosis (70%) in case 1, necrosis with reactive adenitis in case 2, extensive fibrosis in case 3 and post-pubertal teratoma in case 4. Currently, all patients are disease-free.
Conclusions
Robotic retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy is a safe and precise technique that offers favorable oncological and functional outcomes. The transmesocolic approach represents a feasible option in selected cases, ensuring rapid retroperitoneal access and reduced surgical time.
睾丸癌占泌尿系统肿瘤的5%,在欧洲每年每10万男性中有5.6例的发病率。挽救性腹膜后淋巴结切除术是化疗后持续性腹膜后肿物的标准手术。微创手术的出现正在改变治疗方法。目的是介绍我们的初步经验,经肠系膜机器人入路手术处理这些肿块。方法报告4例非半原性生殖细胞肿瘤患者行经结肠左腹主动脉旁机器人腹膜后淋巴结切除术的围手术期及肿瘤预后。结果1例手术时间为220分钟,其余病例平均手术时间为120分钟(SD: 15)。估计失血量82.5 ml (SD: 79.3)。术中、术后均无并发症。病理解剖显示:病例1为青春期后畸胎瘤(30%)和坏死(70%),病例2为坏死伴反应性腺炎,病例3为广泛纤维化,病例4为青春期后畸胎瘤。目前,所有患者均无疾病。结论机器人腹膜后淋巴结切除术是一种安全、精确的技术,具有良好的肿瘤和功能预后。经结肠入路在特定病例中是一种可行的选择,可确保快速进入腹膜后并缩短手术时间。

Introduction
Opium is used recreationally and for pain relief in certain regions and has been classified as a human carcinogen by the IARC. While its use is rare in Europe and Oceania, it remains a major public health issue in other parts of the world. This study evaluates the risk of bladder cancer among opium users compared to non-users.
Methods
A comprehensive search of MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science was conducted up to July 2024 to identify studies examining the link between opium use and bladder cancer. A meta-analysis was performed to calculate the pooled risk ratio with 95% confidence intervals (CI) (PROSPERO: CRD42024562623).
Results
A total of 15 studies (n = 60,149) were included. The analysis showed that opium users had a significantly higher risk of developing bladder cancer than non-users (risk ratio: 2.36; 95% CI: 1.92-2.90; P < 0.001). The risk increased with the amount of opium consumed, regardless of type or method of use.
Conclusions
Opium consumption increase the risk of developing bladder cancer by more than twofold among users. Awareness of its carcinogenic potential and public health implications is crucial. Our findings underscore the need for global prevention strategies and further research into opium-related bladder cancer risks.
鸦片在某些地区用于娱乐和止痛,被国际癌症研究机构列为人类致癌物。虽然在欧洲和大洋洲很少使用,但在世界其他地区,它仍然是一个重大的公共卫生问题。这项研究评估了鸦片使用者与非使用者之间膀胱癌的风险。方法对截至2024年7月的MEDLINE、Scopus和Web of Science进行综合检索,以确定有关鸦片使用与膀胱癌之间关系的研究。进行meta分析以95%置信区间(CI)计算合并风险比(PROSPERO: CRD42024562623)。结果共纳入15项研究(n = 60149)。分析显示,鸦片使用者患膀胱癌的风险明显高于非使用者(风险比:2.36;95% ci: 1.92-2.90;P & lt;0.001)。风险随着鸦片消费量的增加而增加,无论使用类型或方法如何。结论磺胺类药物使用者膀胱癌发病风险增加2倍以上。对其潜在致癌性和公共卫生影响的认识至关重要。我们的研究结果强调了制定全球预防策略和进一步研究鸦片相关膀胱癌风险的必要性。

FGFR3 mutations are among the most frequent genomic alterations in urothelial cancer (UC) being mainly associated with the luminal papillary (LumP) subtype. With the establishment of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitors, the treatment of UC is now shifting more and more towards personalized medicine. A systematic review using Medline and scientific meeting records was carried out according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analyses guidelines to assess the potential role of FGFR inhibitors in combination with additional therapies for the management of UC. Ongoing trials were identified via a systematic search on ClinicalTrials.gov. A total of 11 full-text papers, 10 congress abstracts, and 5 trials on ClinicalTrials.gov were identified. Following the BLC2001 and THOR study, erdafitinib is the only approved FGFR1-4 inhibitor for metastatic UC with susceptible FGFR2/3 alterations following platinum-based chemotherapy. According to the THOR data of cohort 2, erdafitinib should not be recommended in patients who are eligible for and have not received prior immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). One phase 3 trial is currently evaluating the intravesical device system (TAR210) in FGFR-altered intermediate non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (MoonRISe-1). Preclinical evidence suggests that combination-based approaches could be considered to improve the efficacy of FGFR inhibitors in patients with UC. Nine phase 1b/2 trials are focusing on the combination of FGFR inhibitors with ICIs, chemotherapy, or enfortumab vedotin. In metastatic disease, some preliminary analyses have reported promising results from these combinations (e.g. NORSE and FORT-2 trial). However, no phase 3 trial is terminated, so there is currently no level 1 evidence with long-term outcomes to support the combination of FGFR inhibitors with ICIs, chemotherapy, or targeted therapies. A better understanding of the different mechanisms of action to inhibit FGFR signaling pathways, optimal patient selection and treatment approaches is still needed.
