Many chronic renal patients lack autologous veins in the upper limbs suitable for construction of arteriovenous fstulas for hemodialysis. Alternative fistula options for these patients should be evaluated and compared. The point of this examination is to analyze incredible saphenous unite and polytetrtafluroethelene(PTFE) joins utilized for brachio-axillary access in hemodialysis patients as far as their patency and confusions rates. The investigation was an imminent randomized controlled examination included 60 patients with a clinical analysis of end-stage renal disappointment (ESRF) requiring hemodialysis. Thirty patients were worked upon by saphenous join for brachio-axillary shunt while the other thirty patients were worked upon by manufactured unite (PTFE) for brachio-axillary shunt. Patients remembered for this investigation were between the ages of 18 and 80 years. They were conceded or alluded to the general medical procedure office, vascular unit, with a conclusion of (ESRF) requiring hemodialysis. Patients were missing appropriate venous framework for characteristic AVFs in both upper appendages, or bombed recently done AVFs.; Enrollment of qualified patients was between March 2018 and February 2019. Follow up was intended for first, sixth and twelfth months term. The patients were randomized into 2 gatherings Group (I); by utilizing incredible saphenous vein as a brachioaxillary dialysis get to and Group (II); by utilizin g PTFE unite as a brachioaxillary dialysis get to.

Background The utility of penile suspensory ligament release (SLR) in the setting of penile prosthesis implantation (PPI) has received limited attention in the literature. Aim To assess the efficacy and safety of penile SLR release, pubic lipectomy (PL), and the utility of penopubic Z-plasty (ZP) during malleable PPI in improving sexual satisfaction compared to that achieved with the conventional method. Methods Between August 2018 and April 2020, 61 patients with refractory erectile dysfunction were prospectively randomized into 2 groups; group A included 31 patients who underwent PPI with SLR and PL via ZP, and group B included 30 patients who underwent conventional PPI via a penoscrotal incision. Outcomes Penile length was assessed at 3 months, and sexual satisfaction was assessed up to 1 year after PPI using both validated and non-validated tools. Results The median operative time was higher in group A than in group B (170 min; interquartile range [IQR] [160–190] vs 97.5 min; IQR [90–110] P < .001).The median pre- to postoperative differences in functional and visible penile lengths for group A were 1.5 cm; IQR [0–2] and 2.5 cm; IQR [1–3.5], respectively, while those in group B were both 0 cm; IQR [-1 to 0] P < .001). Group A patients reported higher scores in the International Index of Erectile Function satisfaction domains than the group B patients did (13; IQR [12–14] and 9; IQR [8–10] vs 11; IQR [9.5–12] and 8; IQR [6.5–8.5], respectively, P < .001). Moreover, the postoperative Erectile Dysfunction Inventory of Treatment Satisfaction score was higher in group A than that in group B (95.40; IQR [91–97.7] vs 85.20; IQR [72.7–91], respectively, P < .001). Common complications in group A were penile edema (77.4%), penile instability (9.7%) and glans numbness (9.7%). Clinical Implications The benefit in patient satisfaction following SLR and PL via ZP during PPI may outweigh the incremental increase in complications. Strength & Limitations To our knowledge, this is the first prospective randomized controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SLR, PL, and ZP during PPI. However, because an optimal tool for assessing sexual satisfaction after PPI is lacking at this time, we alternatively adopted the most used assessment tools. Further, our data applies only to malleable penile prosthesis. Conclusion SLR and PL via ZP during PPI resulted in a substantial improvement of the patients’ sexual satisfaction without serious complications.
