In this study, we reported a bispecific radiotracer [Tc]Tc-HFaPSMA to improve the diagnostic sensitivity of prostate cancer (PCa). [Tc]Tc-HFaPSMA was prepared by Tc radiolabeling of a HYNIC-conjugated bispecific biomolecule HFaPSMA, which combines a PSMA-targeting motif (PhPSMA), a FAP-targeting ligand (GFAPI), a symmetric PEG-N-bis(PEG-acid) linker, and a chelator (HYNIC). Preclinical studies showed faster clearance and higher tumor uptake than that of its corresponding single-target radiotracers ([Tc]Tc-HPSMA and [Tc]Tc-HGFAPI). Clinical SPECT/CT matched the resolution of [F]FDG and [F]F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT for primary and metastatic lesions. [Tc]Tc-HFaPSMA showed excellent targeting specificity for both PSMA and FAP. It has the potential to overcome diagnostic limitations due to PSMA heterogeneity and is expected to advance its application in radioligand therapy.

Objectives: To balance the extended functional urinary voiding and morbidity outcomes amid Ileal W and Y-shaped contrasted to spherical ileocoecal (IC) orthotopic bladders subsequent prostate-sparing radical cystectomy (PRC) versus standard radical cystoprostatectomy (RC).
Material And Methods: Two hundred eight male bladder cancer patients were grouped into 98 RC followed by 43-W, 31-Y, and 23-IC in comparison to 110 PRC followed by 35-W, 37-Y, and 38-IC. The functional voiding outcomes were determined by detailed patients' interview and urodynamic studies (UDS).

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most lethal cancer in men in the US. African American (AA) men have twice the incidence and death rate of European American (EA) men. Advanced PCa shows increased expression and activity of the DNA damage/repair pathway enzyme, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1).

Introduction: The effect of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) on adverse in-hospital outcomes after radical prostatectomy (RP) for nonmetastatic prostate cancer (PCa) is not well known.
Materials And Methods: Descriptive analyses, propensity score matching and multivariable logistic regression models were used within the National Inpatient Sample (2000-2019) RP patients, after stratification according to Crohn's disease (CD) vs. ulcerative colitis (UC) vs.

Background And Objective: The apex-to-base transperineal (TP) prostate biopsy needle trajectory may better sample the anterior prostate than the transrectal approach. There is evidence that African American men are more likely to harbor anterior tumors, suggesting that TP biopsy would result in better detection in these men. We performed a secondary retrospective analysis of prospective randomized trial data to determine whether African American race is associated with anterior tumor location and better detection with TP biopsy.
