Objective: External urethral orificium (EUO) is the outermost part of the urethra. It lies on the outside, then the operation tool for endourology transurethra must pass urethra meatus externus first before they can go deeper. Unfortunately there is no study addresses the size of EUO of male adults in Indonesia. This study was aimed to know the size of the EUO in males adult. Material & Methods: This study was a prospective study by taking the primary data in the Sardjito General Hospital and Kardinah General Hospital, Tegal and implemented during the period from October to December 2016. There were 50 samples of males adult. The exclusion criteria in this study were male patients with meatal stenosis or patients with a history of surgery on the penis or instrumentation of the urethra. External urethra orifice size measurements performed with a digital caliper, and then converted to scale the size of Fr. The data were then analyzed by Npar test with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, and then T-test with linear regression. Results: There were 50 adult male patients with a mean age of 52.54 ± 10.34 years. For sizes vary with the size of 16.5-26.4 Fr. From the analysis of the size of the EUO obtained a mean size of 22.72 ± 2.62 for Indonesian adult male. Conclusion: The average size of the adult male EUO was 22.72 ± 2.62 Fr.

Background: Hydrocele is one of the commonest diseases occurring worldwide. Since olden days surgical procedures have been described for the treatment of hydrocele. Aim of the study was to analyse the clinical profile, diagnosis and surgical management of primary vaginal hydrocele in adults (>12 years)Methods: A prospective study of 60 male patients of age range of more than 12 years with a history of scrotal swellings were studied for their clinical profiles, diagnosis and management. The study was carried out in Government Medical College, Miraj, Maharashtra, India from November 2010 to November 2012. In the present study Jaboulay's Procedure was performed on 48 patients and Lord's Procedure was performed on 12 patients.Results: The data was collected and results were analysed. Post-operatively about 1.6% of patients developed hematoma, 5% developed wound infection, 21.66% of the patients developed skin oedema and only 1 patient i.e 1.6 % had recurrence over a period of 2 years of follow up. Out of the total 60 patients,12 patients who underwent Lord's plication 8.33%,0%,0% developed skin oedema, hematoma and wound infection respectively as compared to 25%,2.08%,6.25% in the remaining 48 patients who underwent Jaboulay's procedure, respectively.Conclusions: These two surgical procedures were very safe, easy to perform and economical and associated with minimal recurrence. Lord's procedure has lesser incidence of post-operative complications as compared to Jaboulay's procedure.

(1) Background: Febrile neutropenia (FN) remains one of the most challenging problems in medical oncology and is a very severe side effect of chemotherapy. Its late consequences, when it is recurrent or of a severe grade, are dose reduction and therapy delays. Current guidelines allow the administration of granulocyte-colony-stimulating factors (G-CSF) for profound FN (except for the case when a pegylated form of G-CSF is administrated with prophylactic intention) in addition to antibiotics and supportive care. (2) Methods: This is a prospective study that included 96 patients with confirmed malignancy, treated with chemotherapy, who developed FN during their oncological therapy, and were hospitalized. They received standard treatment plus a dose of G-CSF of 16 µg/Kg/day IV continuous infusion. (3) Results: The gender distribution was almost symmetrical: Male patients made up 48.96% and 51.04% were female patients, with no significance on recovery from FN (p = 1.00). The patients who received prophylactic G-CSF made up 20.21%, but this was not a predictive or prognostic factor for the recovery time from aplasia (p = 0.34). The median chemotherapy line where patients with FN were included was two and the number of previous chemotherapy cycles before FN was three. The median serological number of neutrophils (PMN) was 450/mm3 and leucocytes (WBC) 1875/mm3 at the time of FN. Ten patients possess PMN less than 100/mm3. The median time to recovery was 25.5 h for 96 included patients, with one failure in which the patient possessed grade 5 FN. Predictive factors for shorter recovery time were lower levels of C reactive protein (p < 0.001) and procalcitonin (p = 0.002) upon hospital admission and higher WBC (p = 0.006) and PMN (p < 0.001) at the time of the provoking cycle of chemotherapy for FN. The best chance for a shorter duration of FN was a short history of chemotherapy regarding the number of cycles) (p < 0.0001). (4) Conclusions: Continuous IV administration of G-CSF could be an alternative salvage treatment for patients with profound febrile neutropenia, with a very fast recovery time for neutrophiles.

Abstract : This study aimed to predict life satisfaction using the aspects of  life satisfaction  saying spirituality with its meanings showed in well-being besides hope in cancer male adult patients. So,  we have selected 120 cancer adult male patients by available sampling method as research sample and completed spirituality well-being with its three types, besides hope and life satisfaction scales. However, results showed that there was significant difference among spirituality well-being, hope and life satisfaction. as well, regression analyses brought that existential and religious well-being and hope predict significantly the life satisfaction. However, we can conclude that spirituality well-being and hope both have important roles in life satisfaction and psychological adjustment in life of cancer male adult patients.

Abstract Objective: Erectile dysfunction can be caused iatrogenically, due to pelvic surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate sexual function at various times after pelvic surgery in male patients and to investigate the non-modifiable risk factors associated with the presence and intensity of sexuality in these patients. Results: The mean age of the participants was 66.16 ± 13.07 years old. Regarding comorbidity, 47.2% reported various cardiovascular problems, 20.8% hypertension, 9.4% diabetes mellitus and 5.7% depression. A history of colectomy was present in 36.8%, 18.9% had undergone sigmoidectomy, and 33% inguinal hernia repair. The percentage of severe erectile function increased from 38.7% before surgery to 48.1% (25% increase) after surgery, at the end of the follow-up period (p <0.05). In the multivariate analysis model, age emerged as an independent predictor of erectile function ( p <0.001). Age was the most important determinant of the IIEF score, which was aggravated by 25% from the first to the last assessment of patients.
