In 2010, we published a review summarising the available literature on surgical anatomy of the prostate and adjacent structures involved in cancer control and the functional outcome of prostatectomy.

Radical inguinal lymph node dissections (rILND) for penile cancer risk significant postoperative lymphocele and lymphedema. However, reducing the risk of lymphatic complications is limited by our understanding of lymphatic anatomy.

To assess the multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) appearances of normal peripheral zone (PZ) across age groups in a biopsy-naïve population, where prostate cancer (PCa) was subsequently excluded, and propose a scoring system for background PZ changes.

Nuclear grading is an independent prognosis factor of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). A non-invasive preoperative predictive WHO/International Society of Urologic Pathology (WHO/ISUP) grading of ccRCC model is needed for clinical use.

To present an overview of mp MRI techniques necessary for high-resolution imaging of prostate.

We summarize examples from our clinical experience and concepts from the current literature that illustrate normal prostate anatomy on multiparametric MRI (mp MRI).

To use nerve conduction studies to clarify the functional innervation of the male urethral rhabdosphincter. In particular, to test the hypothesis that in some men, fibres of the neurovascular bundle supply the rhabdosphincter.

Previously, we studied the effect of finasteride- or dutasteride-containing diets in male C57BL/6 TRAMP x FVB mice. Pre (6 weeks of age) and post (12 weeks of age) groups received finasteride or dutasteride to determine the efficacy of these pharmaceuticals on prostate cancer (PCa) development in male C57BL/6 TRAMP x FVB mice.
