“…In addition, müllerian anomalies are occasionally associated with other urogenital anomalies or anorectal malformations, such as cloacas or bladder exstrophy, that preclude vaginal birth due to the high risk of trauma in the reconstructed vagina. 66 The increased risk for preterm birth and fetal malpresentation in women with congenital uterine anomalies was also reported in two previous systematic reviews. 3,4 In our analysis, bicorporeal uterus (class U3) appeared to have the greatest risk for preterm birth.…”

“…As with all humans, patients with congenital urological anomalies are not spared age-related urological challenges. The final manuscript [8] examines how "normal" aging may affect those who have had treatment in childhood for a congenital urological condition. While basic guidelines for treatment of BPH or prostate cancer may be appropriate for most patients, special considerations should be made for patients with congenital neuropathic bladder prior to treatment.…”

“…As life expectancy continues to increase globally, there is a growing need for accurate diagnostic tools and effective treatments for age-related health issues. Prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are two such conditions that are highly prevalent among aging males [21]. The early detection of PCa or BPH is crucial for maintaining health and ensuring accurate diagnoses, as timely intervention can signi cantly improve patient outcomes.…”

Purpose Early detection of prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is crucial for maintaining the health and well-being of aging male populations. This study aims to evaluate the performance of transfer learning with convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for efficient classification of PCa and BPH in transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) images.Methods A retrospective experimental design was employed in this study, with 1,380 TRUS images for PCa and 1,530 for BPH. Seven state-of-the-art deep learning (DL) methods were employed as classifiers with transfer learning applied to popular CNN architectures. Performance indices, including sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), Kappa value, and Hindex (Youden's index), were used to assess the feasibility and efficacy of the CNN methods.Results The CNN methods with transfer learning demonstrated a high classification performance for TRUS images, with all accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, PPV, NPV, Kappa, and Hindex values surpassing 0.9400. The optimal accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity reached 0.9987, 0.9980, and 0.9980, respectively, as evaluated using two-fold cross-validation.Conclusion The investigated CNN methods with transfer learning showcased their efficiency and ability for the classification of PCa and BPH in TRUS images. Notably, the EfficientNetV2 with transfer learning displayed a high degree of effectiveness in distinguishing between PCa and BPH, making it a promising tool for future diagnostic applications.
