Société Internationale d’Urologie Journal, Volume 6, Issue 4

Over the past two decades, robotic-assisted surgery has revolutionized the field of urology, offering remarkable advancements in surgical precision, reduced perioperative morbidity, and enhanced postoperative recovery [...]

The pages of this month’s Société Internationale d’Urologie Journal (SIUJ) feature important contributions addressing the clinical implementation of innovation and technology in Urology [...]

Background/Objectives: To assess the “footprint” sign in voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) for its diagnostic and prognostic significance in indicating a “pop-off” mechanism that may reduce pressure on the contralateral kidney....

Robotic-assisted surgery has gradually established its role in uro-oncological cases that demand a high level of precision, optimising surgeon ergonomics and decreasing fatigue whilst maintaining optimal clinical outcomes. With the novel Hinotori sur...

Background/Objectives: Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs) due to benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) represent a common condition affecting aging men. Transurethral resection of the prostate represents the gold standard surgical treatment but is not...

Background/Objectives: Artificial intelligence (AI) has been utilised in urological conditions such as urolithiasis, urogynaecology and uro-oncology. The aim of this study is to examine the attitudes and beliefs about AI technology amongst urology he...

Background/Objectives: Green light laser photosensitive vaporisation of the prostate (GLL-PVP) is a common procedure for bladder outlet obstruction, with a low incidence of post-operative bleeding. At Northern Health, postoperative management involve...

Background/Objectives: Since the proPSMA trial, prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) scan has primarily replaced conventional imaging for staging newly diagnosed prostate cancer. The objective of this commentar...

Background/Objectives: Introducing new transformative surgical technology involves navigating a complex process from design to implementation, often hindered by various barriers that delay the transition into clinical practice. This review critically...

Background/Objectives: Lichen sclerosus is a chronic lymphocyte-mediated inflammatory disorder with a predilection for the anogenital region. It is a common cause of urethral stricture disease in males. The gold standard treatment is considered to be...
