Smoking cessation and outcome of patients affected by non muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMI-BC)
2013
Introduction: Does a correlation exist between smoking cessation and recurrence of non muscle invasive bladder carcinoma (NMI-BC) after TUR and adjuvant intravescical chemotherapy? Up today just few retrospective studies tried to answer this question. There is evidence that quitting decreases the risk of recurrence but nowadays it is still controversial how and how long it takes from quitting to reduce the risk (1-3). The aim of the present study is to compare the recurrence rate in smokers, non smokers and former smokers and in particular to evaluate if and how the decision of quitting at diagnosis could change the patients’outcome. Patients and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the out…

How Can the COVID-19 Pandemic Lead to Positive Changes in Urology Residency?
2020
The COVID-19 outbreak, in a few weeks, overloaded Italian hospitals, and the majority of medical procedures were postponed. During the pandemic, with hospital reorganization, clinical and learning activities performed by residents suffered a forced remodulation. The objective of this study is to investigate how urology training in Italy has been affected during the COVID-19 era. In this multi-academic study, we compared residents' training during the highest outbreak level with their previous activity. Overall 387 (67.1%) of the 577 Italian Urology residents participated in a 72-h anonymous online survey with 36 items sent via email. The main outcomes were clinical/surgical activities, soci…

Epidemiologia della malattia in Italia. Cosa ècambiato? Territorio, le professioni e lo stile di vita. E' giunto il tempo dello screening?
2013
Epidemiology of disease conditions in Italy. Has anything changed? Environment, professional exposure, and lifestyle. Is time for screening? Risk factors analysis in bladder cancer should consider not only the clinical and pathological features of the tumor but also environmental and lifestyle factors. They may play, in fact, a relevant role not only in the pathogenesis but also in the biological behavior of the tumor. The association between cigarette smoking and bladder cancer has been consistently confirmed in several case-control and cohort studies. The risk of bladder cancer seems to increase with duration and intensity of smoking. Another environmental risk factor, although not defini…

Appunti di Andrologia Chirurgica e Urologia
2012
Preme sottolineare il grande impatto sociale di molte patologie urologiche sulla popolazione, come le malattie prostatiche, l'anuria ostruttiva o l'ematuria o ancora le infezioni urinarie o il deficit erettile: non si può esercitare con coscienza la professione del medico senza conoscere le cause, i sintomi e la terapia di queste problematiche. Per tale motivo abbiamo voluto aggiornare la pubblicazione del I° vol. già pubblicato, in maniera che lo studente abbia un riferimento semplice e chiaro per preparare l'esame di Urologia, integrando i testi ufficiali.
