Zdobinská T, Veselý Š. Potential markers of prostate cancer in urine. Prostate cancer is one of the most common oncological diseases among men worldwide. Accurate diagnosis and patient stratification are crucial for ensuring timely and appropriate therapy. Current standards primarily rely on PSA, whose tumor specificity is limited. This review focuses on non-invasive potential oncological markers derived from urine, including oxidative stress, metabolomics and nucleic acid analysis. Some studies indicate that elevated levels of markers such as F2-isoprostane, sarcosine or PCA3 may signify the presence and aggressiveness of prostate cancer. New combined...

Objective: The authors present a series of patients treated for persistent urachus pathologies. Patient cohort and method: Retrospective analysis of a group of 16 patients (9 girls, 7 boys) treated between 2013 and 2023 with a diagnosis of persistent urachus. Results: Urachal cyst was diagnosed preoperatively in 11 patients (69%), urachal sinus was diagnosed in 4 patients (25%), and persistent urachus was found in one patient (6%). Thirteen patients underwent surgical excision of the urachus. Three patients in the cohort...

Dittrichová H, Hanek P. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy in modified supine position. Aim: To present our department's experience with percutaneous nephrolithotomy in a modified supine position. Materials and Methods: During the observed period from January 1, 2020, to May 31, 2023, 93 percutaneous nephrolithotomies were performed in a modified supine position on 80 patients. A retrospective data analysis was conducted. The factors studied included stone size, Guy's stone score, operative time, stone-free rate, complications, fluoroscopy time, use of lithotripsy, and the need for blood transfusion after the procedure. Result: The average size of the treated...

Chovanec V, Broďák M, Wiesner N, Študent V, Pacovský J. Chylous ascites after robotic assisted retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy - treatment with intranodal lymphography. The authors present a case of chylous ascites that developed after robot-assisted retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy. The intranodal lymphography with an oil-based contrast media was performed due to unsuccessful conservative treatment. After the lymphography chylous ascites ceased. This case report shows the possibility of treating postoperative chylous ascites with a radiological mini-invasive method.
