Ostřížková S, Zlotkowska R. The effect of covid-19 on male fertility. Covid-19 disease has spread rapidly across continents since 2019, causing a pandemic. A higher prevalence of the disease has been observed in males, partly due to higher expression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which, together with transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2), plays an important role in viral entry into the cell. Both ACE2 and TMPRSS2 are expressed on the surface of many human tissues, including tissues of the male and female reproductive system. For this reason, the effect of SARS-CoV-2 on male fertility is still under investigation. Current studies have...

Dolejšová O, Sedláčková H, Pitra T, Trávníček I, Heindereich F, Hora M. Bladder injury. Introduction: Bladder injury is an uncommon presentation encountered by urologists in clinical practice. Injury can be traumatic or iatrogenic, or more rarely spontaneous rupture. The aim of our work is to evaluate the causes, diagnostics and method of treatment in one institution. Material and methods: A group of patients was retrospectively evaluated in the period from January 2012 to May 2021. A total of 52 patients, 23 women (44%) and 29 men (56%) were treated. The mean age was 53.1 years (range 15-91, median 53,5). Results: In 20 cases (38%) the cause of the...

Hrbáček J, Hanáček V, Tláskal V, Saláková M, Čermák P, Tachezy R, Zachoval R. Profiling upper urinary tract microbiota: a feasibility study in patients with urinary stone disease. Aim: To investigate the putative existence of upper urinary tract microbiota and if present, to compare the microbial communities from the kidney with those in the urinary bladder. Patients and Methods: Patients were undergoing endoscopic procedures under anesthesia for upper urinary tract stones. Bladder urine was obtained by aseptic catheterisation, renal urine samples were collected via ureteric catheter inserted into the renal pelvis under cystoscopic and radiographic...

Hanáček V, Borovička V, Chlupáč J, Froněk J. Inferior vena cava reconstruction in a patient with locally advanced and recurrent renal cancer. Locally advanced renal cell carcinoma is associated with a malignant thrombus of the inferior vena cava (IVC) in approximately 10 % of cases. Complete tumor resection in the form of a radical nephrectomy and caval thrombectomy is the most effective curative option in indicated cases. In some instances, resection of the IVC is necessary. Cadaveric allografts or synthetic vascular prostheses represent the most commonly used grafts. A malignant thrombus of the IVC is a significant adverse prognostic factor, and...
