Cognitive Impairment in Prostate Cancer Patients Receiving Androgen Deprivation Therapy: A Scoping Review.

Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a primary treatment for prostate cancer (PCa) that effectively reduces androgen levels to suppress tumor progression. However, growing evidence suggests potential cognitive side effects, raising concerns about the long-term neurological consequences of this treatment. This scoping review aims to synthesize the existing evidence linking ADT to cognitive changes in men with PCa, identifying the key cognitive domains affected and outlining gaps in the existing literature.

Bellini duct carcinoma.

The modern era has brought an appreciation that renal cell carcinoma (RCC) includes diverse subtypes derived from the various parts of the nephron, each with its distinctive genetic basis and tumor biology.

The impact of multidisciplinary team conferences in urologic cancer in a tertiary hospital.

Purpose: Multidisciplinary team (MDT) conferences are currently the standard of care in cancer patients' management. Despite evidence supporting benefits to the majority of malignancies, a paucity of data exists examining the impact in urinary and male genital cancers. This study aims to evaluate the impact of MDT conferences in urologic cancer practice.
