CONCLUSIONS The pessary produces positive effects on the quality of life of women with POP, with good satisfaction rates. The main reasons for the interruption include inability to retain the pessary, discomfort, and the desire for surgery.

To describe urinary symptoms and urodynamic findings in patients with advanced pelvic organ prolapse.MATERIAL AND METHODS A descriptive and retrospective evaluation with advanced POP referred for urodynamic test before surgical repair between 2015 and 2017 were included. All patients under went a urogynexam, physical examination, uroflow and urodynamics exam. Clinical features (filling and emptying symptoms,stress incontinence questionnaire (ISIQ-SF) and urodynamics (sensitivity, capacity and hyperactive detrusor, internal sphincter deficiency and voiding symptoms).RESULTS A total of 170 patients with advanced PRP were evaluated. The most prevalent symptoms were urgency (63%), urinary stream disturbance (64%), incomplete voiding (63%). Mixt urinary incontinence wasthe most commonly reported (30%). Only 11% had anormal urodynamics exam. 36% had a hidden stress incontinence. 47% had voiding symptoms related to infravesical obstruction (30%).CONCLUSIONS Patients with advanced POP havea wide variety of urinary anormal urodynamics exam. 36% had a hidden stress incontinence. 47% had voiding symptoms related to infravesical obstruction (30%). CONCLUSIONS Patients with advanced POP havea wide variety of urinary symptoms such as urgency, voiding dysfunction and mixt urinary incontinence. Urodynamics studies provide relevant information regardingat the bladder dysfunction that may decrease surgical outcomes.

Kidney transplant is the treatmentof election of end-stage chronic renal disease, usually being heterotopic extraperitoneal in the iliac fossae, with successful results. This technique can be challenging or even not feasible, usually in cases of severe vasculopathy or previous grafts, so urologists should consider alternatives such as orthotopic transplant.MATERIAL AND METHODS We present three cases oforthotopic kidney transplant (OKT) made in Cruces University Hospital from 2001 to 2019, out of 2580 cases. We review recipients' medical history, indication,surgical technique and post surgical evolution.RESULTS The average age of the patients was 51.6 years. The indication was severe vasculopathy of iliacvessels. We made left nephrectomy, followed by venous renal end-to-end anastomosis, arterial end-to-side anastomosis to aorta and pyelo-pyelic anastomosis with catheter,with immediate function of the graft. The patients' evolution was favourable, without significant complications and no differences with hete with catheter,with immediate function of the graft. The patients' evolution was favourable, without significant complications and no differences with heterotopic transplant. CONCLUSION OKT is a good alternative when heterotopicis not feasible, with an acceptable number of complications and similar survival.Kidney transplantation (KTx) is the best therapeutic modality for end stage renal disease. Currently in Colombia there are approximately 2800 patients waiting for KTx. Historically, urologists have beenin close contact with KTx, however in Colombia the interaction between urology and KT is scarce. OBJECTIVES To determine the perceptions and KTx training level into colombian urology residents. MATERIAL AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective and descriptive study through 14 items survey applied to colombian urology residents. Data are summarizedas means and Pearson Chi2 test was used to evaluate differences between qualitative variables.RESULTS The study included 76 participants. More than half of the programs of urology residency in Colombia includes KTx training into their academic programs, 36.84% of participants have received formal training (lectures, rounds, clinical rotation, seminars) on KTx, 28.95% have participated into KTx procedure, 97.37% considered the KTx as a urological field, KTx is the urological area with least academic interest for the residents, 76.32% consider their training in KTx as insufficient. The main barrier identified to increase training in KTx during urology residency is the non-availability of a formal rotation. CONCLUSIONS KTx is not an area of primary interest for the colombian urology residents. Although most residents identify the KTx as an area related to urology and that exposure to some phases of the KTx is acceptable, 76% of residents consider their transplant training as insufficient. The main barriers identified for the urology resident's approach to KTx are modifiable.

Emerging urinary infections by rare germs are a public health problem. The objectives of this article are to review urinary tract infections caused by an emerging genus of bacteria called Raoultella and to report a case of asymptomatic urinary tract infection by Raoultella ornithinolytica.

A review of publications on urinary tract infections caused by the genus Raoultella between 2009 and 2018 is carried out and a case of asymptomatic urinary tract infection by Raoultella ornithinolytica is reported. check details The search of articles in Medline/ Pubmed and Google was performed with the keywords Raoultella, Raoultella ornithinolytica, urinary tract infection. Twelve variables were studied year of publication, authors, specialty, type of infection, number of cases, sex, age, immunosuppression, oncological patient, urological instrumentation, urological surgery and neurogenic bladder. Results were analyzed using descriptive statistics. A new case is described.

24 publications were found with 120 cases of urinary infeRaoultella occur in immunocompromised, oncological, instrumented or basic urological patients. The species Raoultella ornithinolytica described in 2011 is an emerging germ in urinary infections. This contribution is the second Spanish publication and twelfth worldwide of urinary infection by Raoultella ornithinolytica.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been associated with increased mortality and morbidity from thromboembolism, especially venous thromboembolism. There are more limited data for systemic thromboembolism. The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of systemic and venous thromboembolism as well as major bleeding and mortality in relation to underlying risk factors and the impact of anticoagulation use in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

Patients with COVID-19 admitted to Union Hospital, Wuhan, Hubei, China between January 08, 2020 and April 7, 2020 were enrolled in this retrospective study. Cox proportional hazard models were utilized to determine associated risk factors for clinical events, adjusting for the severity of COVID-19 infection, drug therapies, comorbidities, surgery, and use of antithrombotic drugs. There were 1125 patients (49.9% male; mean age 58 years (standard deviation, SD, 15 years)) with a mean follow-up of 21 (SD 13) days. Approximately 25 (30%) patients with thromboembolism also suffered bleeding events.
