TL;DR: F Faulty embryogenesis is proposed to explain these findings and the importance of endoscopic positioning of the ureteral orifice is emphasized in determining whether heminephrectomy will be necessary.

TL;DR: Patients with apparently solitary metastasis have about a 35 per cent prospect of surviving 5 years after aggressive treatment, although the prospects of further metastasis are high.

TL;DR: A study of the long-term results of ileal conduit urinary diversion for non-malignant disease in 90 children has shown that there were 75 survivors after 10 to 16 years and good results were obtained in terms of preservation of renal function in all categories.

TL;DR: Introital colonization in patients susceptible to urinary infections was significantly higher for E. coli, S. faecalis and P. aeruginosa than for any gram-negative pathogens and persisted through consecutive cultures for longer periods in women with recurrent infections.

TL;DR: The effects of trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole were interpreted as a competitive inhibition of the mechanism for tubular secretion of creatinine through the base-secreting pathway and the rise in serum creatInine does not indicate any decrease in the glomerular filtration rate.

TL;DR: The mixed cell agglutination reaction was studied in patients with stage A transitional cell bladder tumors and the absence of antigens on the original tumor was found to correlate with development of invasive cancer on followup.

TL;DR: Transrectal ultrasonotomography is a promising new diagnostic technique that yeilds abundant information not available with former methods of examination that is likely to become one of th most important diagnostic tools in the field of urology.

TL;DR: Patients who have ileal conduit urinary diversion need vigilant lifelong followup with accurate assessment of renal function, infection and pyelographic status to prevent or arrest renal deterioration.

TL;DR: The results presented show that horseshoe kidney is a non-fatal anomaly of renal development that can be managed successfully by standard urologic procedures, and the Foley Y-V pyeloplasty is a highly effective procedure for relief of ureteropelvic junction obstruction.

TL;DR: It is concluded from studies that mitomycin C topical therapy could be applied to low stage and low grade bladder tumors less than 1 cm.

TL;DR: Using the penile pulse data and a comparison of thepenile with the brachial systolic pressures, 2 or possibly 3 grades of penile ischemia are definable, providing a measure of pelvic vascular insufficiency.

TL;DR: The various types of renal artery aneurysms are described, the most common one being the congenital saccularAneurysm, which is almost invariably found in hypertensive young people and generally undergoes atherosclerotic degeneration.

TL;DR: Five patients in whom isolated ileal or ileocecal segments had been incorporated into the urinary tract suffered complications that ended in excision of the bowel segment.

TL;DR: The patients are usually in the fourth decade of life and present with an acute onset of flank pain, a tender mass and commonly symptoms and signs of shock, followed by vascular diseases, infection, nephritis and blood dyscrasias.

TL;DR: Analysis of the cumulative survival rates revealed that nephrectomy significantly increased survival only for those patients pesenting exclusively with osseous metastases, and did not alter survival for patients with pulmonary and/or soft tissue metastases.

TL;DR: Improved operative techniques, method of fluid balance, and preoperative and postoperative care have led to a progressively decreased operative mortality in patients with carcinoma of the bladder.

TL;DR: Lungs, stomach, breast and contralateral kidney remain the common primary sources of malignancy likely to metastasize to the kidney, with an apparent period of occult growth and further metastases before symptoms appear.

TL;DR: Long-termsurvivors in the young age group and some long-term survivors with high grade lesions are good arguments for the possible curability of early stage C carcinoma of the prostate by total prostatectomy.

TL;DR: Palliative urinary diversion was done in 47 cases for ureteral obstruction secondary to advanced pelvic malignancy and patients with carcinoma of the prostate fared better than those with other sites of tumor origin, which may reflect the natural history of this tumor.

TL;DR: Eght-four patients with renal cell carcinoma were analyzed retrospectively to determine the effectiveness of systemic chemotherapy-hormonal and non-hormmonal, identify the clinical features of renalcell carcinoma that may be important in prognosis and characterize the paraneoplastic features of kidneys carcinoma.

TL;DR: A double-blind, placebo-controlled study using the antiandrogen compound flutamide in 30 patients with benign enlargement of the prostate is reported, and the potency of the compound was indicated by the large percentage of patients suffering from gynecomastia or nipple pain.

TL;DR: The causes and results of therapy in 972 cases of renal pelvic and ureteral tumors collected in Yugoslavia are reported, with particular attention paid to conservative operations, including their indications and possibilities.

TL;DR: Followup data on 90 of 177 patients with Peyronie's disease seen from Janurary 1, 1950 to April 1, 1970 revealed that the ultimate outcome of the disease when not treated was no different from that following orthovoltage radiotherapy.

TL;DR: The new Iglesias resectoscope that allows simultaneous suction, continuous irrigation and low intravesical pressure is described and the entire amount of irrigating fluid is collected blood loss is calculated and the amount of absorption can be determined.

TL;DR: The mechanism of infertility after high retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy was studied and sympatholytic drugs be studied for possible application as reversible male contraceptives.

TL;DR: The patient seen after puberty with an intra-abdominal unilateral undescended testis in the inguinal region should have orchiectomy because the risk of death from malignancy exceeds therisk of anesthesia and orchiectomies.

TL;DR: During a 10-year period 504 selected subfertile men underwent surgical correction of varicocele and had a followup of at least 1 year, results were better in terms of semen quality improvement and pregnancy in patients who had preoperative sperm counts greater than 10 million per cc.

TL;DR: Among the advantages of the colon conduit are minimal stomal stenosis, little residuum, less electrolyte disturbance and availability for high and low diversions.

TL;DR: The fact that men with testicular tumors have a high incidence of human chorionic gonadotropin-beta secretion provides the physician with a powerful new tool for examining the various aspects of tumor activity and shows the feasibility for prospective screening of patients with a wide variety of neoplasms of differing histologic types.

TL;DR: Twenty patients have had successful eradication of intrauresthral condyloma acuminata by the intraurethral instillation of 5 per cent 5-fluorouracil cream by safe, inexpensive, painless, and effective method.
