Initial experience and cancer detection rates of office-based transperineal magnetic resonance imaging-ultrasound fusion prostate biopsy under local anesthesia.
Zachary Kozel,Clay D. Martin,David Mikhail,Aaron Smith,Luke Griffiths,Daniel Nethala,Manish Vira,Michael S Schwartz +7 more
TL;DR: Office-based transperineal fusion biopsy represents a viable approach to prostate cancer detection following prostate MRI and larger-scale assessment is needed to categorize cancer detection rates more accurately by PI-RADs subset, patient selection factors, complication rate, and cost relative to TFB under anesthesia.
Feasibility and Utility of Mobile Applications for the Evaluation of Urology Residents' Surgical Competence.
Daniel Nethala,Clay Martin,Luke Griffiths,David Mikhail,Danielle Wang,Zachary Kozel,Manish Vira,David Y. Chan,Simon J. Hall,Lee Richstone,Michael J. Schwartz,Louis R. Kavoussi,Jessica Kreshover +12 more
TL;DR: The use of mobile applications to evaluate urology residents' surgical competency in clinical practice is both feasible and useful as discussed by the authors, which may allow for more individualized surgical skill teaching during training and for the verification of the surgical skills necessary to practice autonomously.

Weighted Gleason Grade Group (WGGG): A new prostate cancer biopsy reporting system with prognostic potential.
Nikhil Waingankar,Alberto Martini,Luke Griffiths,Paras Shah,David J. Paulucci,Srinath Kotamarti,Zeynep Gul,Matthew Elmasri,Oksana Yaskiv,Kenneth Haines,Seth Lerner,Manish Vira,Louis R. Kavoussi,Ashutosh K. Tewari,Deepak A. Kapoor,Carl A. Olsson +15 more
TL;DR: The Weighted Gleason Grade Group (WGGG), a novel scoring system that synthesizes all histopathologic data and cancer volume into a single numeric value representing the entire PBx, is proposed, allowing for improved prediction of adverse pathology and risk of biochemical recurrence (BCR) following radical prostatectomy (RP).

Primary Renal Ewing Sarcoma Masquerading as Wilms in an Adolescent Female
TL;DR: The case of a 14-year-old female who initially presented with intermittent gross painless hematuria and a large left renal mass identified on ultrasound and confirmed on follow up MRI and subsequently underwent completion nephrectomy and chemotherapy is reported.

Pd39-08 implementation of a simple clinical pathway increases relevance of inpatient consults for urinary retention
Luke Griffiths,Darian Andreas,Shannon D. Smith,Aaron Smith,Hollie Brown,Jessica Kreshover,Justin Han +6 more
TL;DR: Implementation of this simple pathway may have identified more complex patients while reducing overutilization of specialist care and the net effect was a decrease in overall consults.
