Thursday, 01 February 2007 Volume 51, Issue 2, Pages 304-305 (February 2007) After more than a century since the first prostatectomy was described by Young, the debate continues regarding the optimal treatment of postprostatectomy incontinence (PPI). PPI remains a devastating and frustrating complication for both patients and urologists alike. read more European Urology - Are We Entering the Era of Truly Minimally Invasive Destructive Techniques for the Treatment of Urologic Tumours and Will These Therapies Stay in Urologists’ Hands? Thursday, 01 February 2007 Volume 51, Issue 2, Pages 296-298 (February 2007) When I was young, I had the good fortune to have a renowned paediatrician as one of my mentors. He was a source of a number of important axioms of life that I have found useful over the years, but the rather depressing “the graveyards are full of indispensable people,” which tended to put all life into perspective, and the important insight that at any one point in time the majority of medical practice is actually suboptimal as new and better therapies are currently available, is one that seems to have only grown in importance during my career. read more European Urology - Voiding Symptom Evaluation: It is Time to Recalibrate Thursday, 01 February 2007 Volume 51, Issue 2, Pages 302-303 (February 2007) Those of us who care for men (and women) who have voiding symptoms are swept by the conundrum of distinguishing quantity from quality.

After Huggins and Hodges proved that testosterone reduction by castration or oestrogen treatment caused regression of metastatic disease, the detrimental effect of testosterone administration in patients at risk of or with pCA was inferred [1]. read more European Urology - Do We Need the Final Results of the ERSPC Trial? Thursday, 01 February 2007 Volume 51, Issue 2, Pages 291-292 (February 2007) The oncologic community eagerly awaits the final results of the two important international screening studies for prostate cancer (Prostate, Lung Colorectal and Ovary [PLCO] and European Randomized Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer [ERSPC]). In the report by de Vries et al. in the current issue of the journal [1], the investigators of the ERSPC trial publish for the first time results regarding overall and disease-specific survival in the screening arm of the Rotterdam section of the trial compared to historical controls. read more   << Start < Prev 1 Next > End >> Results 1 - 6 of 6
