  • M inverted V glansplasty: an update on technique and outcomes 30 years later

    Burns Amy, Harrington Stephen, Boltz Suzanne, Decter M. Ross Department of Urology, The Pennsylvania State University, College of Medicine, Hershey, Pennsylvania, USA

    Distal hypospadias is a common congenital urology anomaly for which numerous corrective procedures have been described. Over the last 40 years, the gold-standard operative technique for distal hypospadias has switched from the meatal advancement and glanuloplasty (MAGPI) procedure to the tubularized incised plate (TIP) urethroplasty. A modification to the MAGPI procedure, first described 30 years ago, is the M inverted V (MIV) glansplasty, which improved upon the MAGPI procedure to reduce instances of meatal retraction. The MIV glansplasty is unique compared to many commonly used procedures as it does not require a formal urethroplasty or incorporation of a dartos flap, and it does not always necessitate as extensive mobilization of the glans wings. We describe our updated technique and outcomes of the MIV glansplasty and delineate situations where the MIV is best employed.

  • How I do it: Aquablation in very large prostates (> 150 mL)

    Helfand T. Brian, Kasraeian Ali, Sterious Steve, Glaser P. Alexander, Talaty Pooja, Alcantara Miguel, Alcantara Mola Kaitlyn, Higgins Andrew, Ghiraldi Eric, Elterman S. Dean Department of Surgery, NorthShore University Health System, Evanston, Illinois, USA

    Aquablation has been well-studied in prostates sizes up to 150 mL. Recently, American Urological Association guidelines distinguish surgical interventions for men with large prostates (80 mL-150 mL) and now very large prostates (> 150 mL). Readers will gain an understanding of how to use Aquablation in the very large prostate size category.

  • How I do it: Balloon tamponade of prostatic fossa following Aquablation

    Aljuri Nikolai, Gilling Peter, Roehrborn Claus, MD PROCEPT BioRobotics Corporation, Redwood Shores, California, USA

    Since its first report in the 1870s, control of bleeding after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) has remained a concern. Foley's initial report of a urinary catheter involved placement of the balloon into the prostatic fossa following TURP. Removal of prostate tissue with a high-velocity saline stream (Aquablation) is a recently reported alternative to TURP. As Aquablation is heat-free, alternatives to non-thermal hemostasis were sought to optimize the procedure. We report use of a balloon catheter in the prostatic fossa after Aquablation as a post-resection hemostatic method.
