BackgroundPhotodynamic diagnosis and narrow-band imaging could help improve the detection rate in transurethral resection (TUR) of bladder cancer. It remained controversial that the novel visualization method assisted transurethral resection (VA-TUR) could elongate patients’ survival compared to traditional TUR.MethodsWe performed electronic and manual searching until December 2020 to identify randomized controlled trials comparing VA-TUR with traditional TUR, which reported patients’ survival data. Two reviewers independently selected eligible studies, extracted data, assessed the risk of bias. Meta-analysis was conducted according to subgroups of types of visualization methods (A) and clinical stage of participants. Publication bias was detected.ResultsWe included 20 studies (reported in 28 articles) in this review. A total of 6,062 participants were randomized, and 5,217 participants were included in the analysis. Only two studies were assessed at low risk of bias. VA-TURB could significantly improve the recurrence-free survival (RFS) (HR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.66 to 0.79, P <0.00001, I2 = 42%) and progression-free survival (PFS) (HR = 0.62, 95% CI: 0.46 to 0.82, P <0.0008, I2 = 0%) compared with TUR under white light. The results remain stable whatever the type of visualization method. The difference could be observed in the non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) population (P <0.05) but not in the mixed population with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) participants (P >0.05).ConclusionVA-TUR could improve RFS and PFS in NMIBC patients. No significant difference is found among different types of VA-TUR. VA-TUR may be not indicated to MIBC patients.

In vessel-depleted neck, salvage free flap transfer for head and neck reconstruction is challenging because the difficulty of selecting the recipient vessel and the discrepancy of vessel diameters. Here, the authors describe a novel technique for vascular anastomosis, which allows 2 thin donor veins end-to-end anastomosed with the larger recipient vein. This II-Y-shaped vascular anastomosis for free flap reconstruction were performed at De-

continue collecting cases that reduce the gap in diagnosis. Finally, the first thing to do is make a correct diagnosis. The understanding of the etiology is what will direct the treatment based on etiology and not on consequences.
