There are different techniques of hypospadias repair, out of them TIPU is widely practiced and popular procedure. Here a midline incision is made over the urethral plate for widening of urethral lumen and creation of neomeatus. Meatal stenosis may subsequently develop at new meatus and it is the limitation of this procedure. In this study TIPU procedure is modified by applying preputial skin graft on incised urethral plate in dorsal inlay fashion and outcome is evaluated. In this prospective study total 21 patients with distal penile hypospadias underwent repair between 2016 and 2017. TIPU urethroplasty was done as usual along with application of a preputial skin graft on midline incised urethral plate. Tubularization was done over appropriate sized catheter and double layers bilateral Dartos flap was applied to cover the suture line. SPC catheterization was done in every patient. On 14th post-operative day urethral catheter was removed and on the same day if patient voids satisfactorily, SPC catheter was also removed. The outcome was evaluated according to the Hypospadias Objective Scoring Evaluation (HOSE) system. 95.23% of the patients achieved apical neomeatus and 90.47% of slit like meatal shape. Mild degree chordee and normal caliber urinary flow was in 9.5% and 95.23% of the patients respectively. 4.76% of the patients developed urethrocutaneous fistula. Dorsal inlay preputial skin grafting is a very simple and feasible technique to maximize the outcome of TIPU procedure. However, multicenter and high volume data are needed for its wide application.

Purpose: Management of posterior urethral distraction defects are challenging for urologists and need very careful and meticulous dissection for getting a good outcome. Dhaka medical college hospital is a tertiary referral hospital where we receive a lot of cases from different districts. The study was done to observe the outcome of anastomotic urethroplasty for posterior urethral distraction defects. Methods : This was a prospective experimental study. This study was done in a single unit of DMCH urology department by a single surgeon . Those who were suffering from posterior urethral distraction defects with suprapubic catheter in situ were included and underwent anastomotic urethroplasty from the period of January, 2018 to october, 2019. After proper evaluation and counseling all patients underwent perineal anastomotic urethroplasty under spinal anesthesia with 6-8 interrupted suture, using 4/0 vicryl. A 14 Fr Foley catheter was placed in urethral lumen and 16 Fr catheter in SPC site. A latex strip drain was placed for perineal wound. Drain was removed after 48 hours of operation . Patients were usually discharged in between 5th to 7th POD with definite follow up protocol and medications with supra pubic catheters (SPC) and per urethral catheters in situ. On 21 POD urethral catheter was removed. SPC was removed after 7 days if patient can void normally. 1st and 2nd follow up were done at the completion of 3rd and 6th month respectively. The prevalence of post-operative sexual disorders was investigated using the International Index of Erectile Function-5 (IIEF-5) questionnaire during follow-up. If the patient can able to void per urethra in a well manner and Qmax>15 mL/s then repair was defined successful. Result : Success rate of perineal anastomotic urethroplasty for posterior urethral distraction defect was 83.33.%. 18 patients were included in the study. The mean age was 28.27 years. 17 patients were able to void successfully after surgical procedure but among those 2 patients had urinary flow rate < 15 ml/sec and one patient didn’t able to void. 3 patients had developed wound infection, 3 patients developed erectile dysfunction. Conclusion : Perineal anastomotic urethroplasty is gold standard for treatment of posterior urethral distraction defects. Long term follow up is needed to give a opinion regarding the ultimate outcome of the surgical procedure and that have give a good idea for future management.

Background: Radical prostatectomy is the best treatment option for clinically localized prostate cancer. But oncological as well as functional outcomes of this procedure including incontinence and erectile dysfunction are a big challenge for the surgeon. Objectives: This paper has focused on our initial experiences of oncological and functional outcomes of open radical retropubic prostatectomy. Materials and methods: Total five cases underwent open radical retropubic prostatectomy between January'2016 to October' 2017. All patients had clinically organ confined prostatic adenocarcinoma. Open radical retropubic prostatectomy with bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection was done through a lower midline incision. We observed the surgical experiences and assess the oncological and functional outcomes postoperatively. Results: The median age (range) of patients at diagnosis was 63 (56-72) years. The median Gleason sum (range) was 7 (6-9) and mean pretreatment PSA was 16.2±5.4 ng/ml. There was no perioperative mortality and no major complications in immediate postoperative period. Final pathological specimen shows negative surgical margin in all cases but one patient has positive unilateral lymph nodes. One patient achieved continence within 3 months; three patients achieved continence at 6 months, one patient after one year. Two patients had satisfactory erection at 6 months; onepatients are at 9 months, and two patients could not gain erection after one year. Conclusion: Though open radical retropubic prostatectomy is tough procedure due to its difficult access to the surgical field. Oncological and functional outcome is totally depending on the skill of the surgical team. KYAMC Journal Vol. 9, No.-4, January 2019, Page 166-169
During evaluation for left loin to groin pain, a 14- year-old boy was found to have left mid ureteric stricture with proximal hydro-ureteronephrosis on imaging. Pus cells were present in his urine with a raised serum creatinine level. There was peripheral eosinophilia and biopsy near the stricture revealed eosinophilic ureteritis. The patient was evaluated to find out the possible causes of eosinophilia. Here we report a case of eosinophilic ureteritis for its rarity. Journal of Surgical Sciences (2015) Vol. 19 (2) : 80-81
Retrocaval ureter is a rare congenital urologic anomaly. It occurs due to the persistence of the right subcardinal veins during embryologic development. Its presence should be suspected with the finding of a characteristic S-shaped deformity on intravenous or retrograde pyelography. Today, a definitive diagnosis can be made noninvasively using multi-slice CT imaging or MRI. Intervention is indicated in the presence of functionally significant obstruction leading to pain or renal function deterioration.J Dhaka Medical College, Vol. 23, No.2, October, 2014, Page 259-261
