In symptomatic cases, nonspecific findings such as lower urinary tract symptoms or pain due to strangulation of the hernia sac are seen. Two-stage micturition (manual pressure to the scrotum to empty residual urine) is a pathognomonic sign for the advanced case. Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), bilateral hydronephrosis, urinary tract infection, acute kidney failure and bladder wall necrosis are complications that may be seen if the problem is not appropriately managed. Preoperative diagnosis rates are low (<7%) and 16% of the cases are diagnosed in the postoperative period, and most cases are detected intraoperatively. Radiologic examination performed for other indications such as non-contrast abdominal computed tomography (CT) may diagnose the bladder herniation. CT, cystography and ultrasonography are the techniques that can be used in th...

There have been delays in fighting against leading problems such as cancer in this process. Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer among urological malignancies. We aim to evaluate the differences between patient populations diagnosed with PCa before and during the pandemic and underwent radical prostatectomy (RP) as a treatment. The study was designed retrospectively in a single center. The pathologic, clinic and demographic of patients who underwent RP between 11.03.2020, which is the first date of the pandemic in Turkey, and 31.12.2020 and between 11.03.2019 and 31.12.2019 were compared. 327 patients were appropriate for inclusion criteria. 125 of them were operated during the pandemic and 202 of them before the pandemic. The median between prostate biopsy and RP was 82 days before the pandemic and 97 days during the pandemic (p=0.04). Although there was a significantly longer time between biopsy ...
