Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence of abnormal sperm DNA denaturation in fertile and infertile men

TL;DR: The data show that sperm DD negatively correlates with standard semen parameters and that an isolated abnormality of sperm DD, a marker of sperm DNA integrity, is uncommon in infertile men.
Journal ArticleDOI

Progression detection of stage i nonseminomatous testis cancer on surveillance: implications for the followup protocol

TL;DR: In stage I nonseminoma patients, surveillance history, physical examination, tumor markers and abdominopelvic CT are necessary components of the followup protocol and should be followed beyond 5 years and likely for life in addition to regular patient self-examination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Qualitative assessment of patient experiences related to extended pelvic resection for rectal cancer.

TL;DR: Patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) and locally recurrent rectum cancer (LRRC) represent a complex management challenge and there is potential for cure in a subset of patients, the cost in terms of morbidity can be high.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lymph node assessment and lymphadenectomy in bladder cancer.

TL;DR: There is no consensus regarding the optimal extent of lymphadenectomy and number of nodes that should be assessed and there is evidence that the quality of regional node dissection is associated with oncologic outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Urologic complications of composite resection following combined modality treatment of colorectal cancer.

TL;DR: Only 24% of patients who underwent ureteric reconstruction following composite resection developed a urologic complication that required intervention, suggesting optimization of surgical technique at the time of en bloc resection may obviate the need for subsequent revision.
