Urologic Neoplasms

Open simple prostatectomy is still performed for selected patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, particularly in cases with large prostate volume. Postoperative bleeding, hematuria, clot retention, and transfusion requirement are clinically important complications after this procedure. This prospective randomized controlled trial will compare the effects of spinal anesthesia and general anesthesia on postoperative bleeding in patients undergoing open simple prostatectomy. Participants will be randomized into two groups: spinal anesthesia or general anesthesia. Tranexamic acid or any additional hemostatic agent will not be used. Postoperative bleeding will be assessed using hemoglobin and hematocrit changes, transfusion requirement, hematuria, clot retention, need for bladder irrigation, and bleeding-related reintervention. The study aims to determine whether spinal anesthesia is associated with reduced postoperative bleeding compared with general anesthesia in open simple prostatectomy.

Spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension is a common and clinically significant complication in elderly patients undergoing oncologic surgery. Early identification of patients at risk for hemodynamic instability remains a major challenge in perioperative management. Skin conductance reflects sympathetic nervous system activity and may provide a noninvasive indicator of autonomic responses. This prospective observational study aims to evaluate whether skin conductance measurements can predict the development of hypotension following spinal anesthesia in geriatric oncology patients undergoing urologic surgery. The findings may contribute to improved perioperative monitoring and early risk stratification in this vulnerable patient population.

The aim of this study is to establish and optimize the \[18F\]RCCB6 PET/CT imaging method, and its physiological and pathological distribution characteristics, on the basis of which the diagnostic efficacy of the above imaging agent in renal cancer (especially clear cell renal cell carcinoma) wil be evaluated.

This is a single-armed, single-centre, non-blinded phase II trial to assess efficacy of induction chemo-immunotherapy for resectable node-positive squamous cell carcinoma of the penis

This is a multicenter real world study (RWS) initiated by the investigator. Eligible patients will be selected for treatment with second-line treatment including vorolanib and followed up. The real survival data of patients after medication will be collected and compared with the data of CONCEPT study, and multi-factor stratified analysis of the efficacy of voronib will be conducted.

This is a non-blinded phase 2 trial in Stage II-IIIa urothelial cancer randomizing pre-operative nivolumab with or without relatlimab to assess whether bladder preservation after dual immunotherapy would be a viable treatment option for patients responding to treatment

The purpose of this study is to examine the usefulness of implanting small 24-K gold fiducial markers around a bladder tumor site, so that a Radiation Oncologist can identify the original tumor location at the time of radiation treatment. Other goals of the study include assessing whether a new MRI imaging technology can help with detection of bladder cancer earlier and more accurately when evidence of bladder cancer is not visible by scope.

This research study is a pilot clinical trial, which hypothesizes that the combination of electromagnetic tracking in conjunction with laparoscope imaging and ultrasound probe imaging will aid in reducing the complexity of both laparoscopic lymphadenectomy and/or organ removal in patients with a confirmed diagnosis of cancer in urologic regions of interest (Bladder, Prostate, Testicular, Kidney, Urethral, and Penis), by resulting in better visualization and more accurate localization of certain areas in the diseased organ or the diseased lymph node, and allowing for improved surgical and patient outcomes, fewer complications and better clinician performance.
