Eligibility of Living Kidney Donors with Kidney Stone Disease.

Introduction: Guidelines recommend that patients with a self-reported history of kidney stones or stones on imaging during living kidney donor (LKD) evaluation undergo 24-h urine stone risk testing. We examined eligibility decisions for LKD candidates at two high-volume academic transplant centers based on 24-h urine testing and imaging findings.

Methods: We identified potential LKDs with a self-reported history of kidney stones or stones identified on imaging, who underwent 24-h urine collection.

Delayed management of artificial urinary sphincter cuff erosion: a case series.

Background: The artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) has been used to treat post-prostatectomy incontinence in men for decades with excellent outcomes and low complication rates. A successful AUS placement can dramatically improve the quality of life in men with stress urinary incontinence. Consequently, complications in this population can be devastating for the patient.
