    Objective: Creation of the access tract is an important step in percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL). In this study, we compared the efficiency and safety of Amplatz, Alken, and balloon dilation methods in the creation of the access tract. Materials and Methods: Data from 487 PNL patients admitted to 517 renal units in 3 centers were analyzed. The Amplatz (280 patients), Alken (142 patients), and balloon (95 patients) dilation methods were compared for their success, duration of the dilation, injury to the collecting system, durations of fluoroscopy and surgery, stone-free and complication rates, pre- and postoperative hematocrit levels, and need for blood transfusion. Results: The dilation methods did not significantly differ with respect to patient demographic data, mean stone area, decrease in hematocrit, need for blood transfusion, unsuccessful tract dilation, injury to the collecting system, stone-free rate, and rate of postoperative complications. The mean fluoroscopy times during Amplatz, Alken, and balloon dilation were 288.52 ± 164.67, 287.34 ± 164.99, and 169.23 ± 21 seconds, respectively. The mean duration of surgery was 96.48 ± 46.07, 94.72 ± 42.25, and 78 ± 25.96 minutes, respectively. The duration of tract creation was 328.67 ± 172.99, 325.14 ± 175.70, and 203.50 ± 32.76 seconds, respectively. The durations of surgery and tract creation were significantly shorter in the balloon dilation group. Conclusion: None of the dilation methods was significantly superior in terms of surgical success, efficiency, or safety. Although balloon dilation was advantageous with respect to time parameters, the role of surgical experience should not be ignored. © Copyright 2016, Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. 2016.

    Aim: To compare patient and partner satisfaction rates after implantation of malleable and two piece inflatable penile protheses in the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Material and Method: The modified Erectile Dysfunction Inventory of Treatment Satisfaction (EDITS) questionnaire was administered six months after implantation of penile prostheses in 65 patients. 40 patients with malleable (Promedon-Tube) prostheses and 25 patients with two- piece inflatable (Ambicore) prostheses between February 2008 and May 2016 and the results were analyzed. Results: The percentages of patients with malleable penile prostheses and partners who reported they were very satisfied with their prostheses were 77.5% and 87.5% respectively. For patients with two- piece inflatable penile prostheses and partners these percentages were 88% and 96%. There was no statistical significance between patients and partners in terms of satisfaction. There was no statistically significant difference between patients using the two different penile protheses in terms of answers to the modified EDITS questionnaires. For patients and partners the overall satisfaction percentages were 80 % (52/65), and 89.2 % (58/65) respectively. Discussion: Both penile prostheses provided high patient and partner satisfaction © 2017, Derman Medical Publishing. All rights reserved.
