  • Genitourinary Membership Requirements Workgroup Meeting Summary February 17, 2021 Conference Call
    OPTN Vascularized Composite Allograft Transplantation Committee Genitourinary Membership Requirements Workgroup Meeting Summary February 17, 2021 Conference Call Nicole M. Johnson, MBA, RN, Co-Chair Stefan Tullius, MD, PhD, Co-Chair Introduction The Vascularized Composite Allograft (VCA) Transplantation Committee’s Genitourinary Membership Requirements Workgroup met via Citrix GoTo teleconference on 02/17/2021 to discuss the following agenda items: 1. Primary Surgeon Requirements The following is a summary of the Workgroup’s discussions. 1. Primary Surgeon Requirements The Workgroup discussed requirements for the primary surgeon of a genitourinary organ VCA transplant program. Summary of discussion: Overview of Primary Surgeon Requirements for Upper Limb & Head and Neck Transplant Programs The primary surgeon requirements for upper limb and head and neck transplant programs have three main components: (1) general requirements regarding degree, licensure, and credentialing, as well as observation of multi-organ procurements; (2) board certification requirement, which can be met by American board certification or an alternative to American board certification; and (3) experience requirements, which can be met though completion of an Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) fellowship; completion of another fellowship that meets OPTN criteria; or a minimum clinical experience pathway. The Co-Chair noted that there is no ACGME fellowship specific to genitourinary organ transplants and asked if that means the primary surgeon for a genitourinary organ transplant program can only qualify via the clinical experience pathway. UNOS staff said that the Workgroup had previously identified some appropriate fellowships for the experience requirement but the Workgroup could also work on defining a clinical experience pathway. A member said that for organs that have a low case volume, like intestine and VCA, having parallel paths to qualify may be the best approach to help new programs get started.

  • The History of Microsurgery in Urological Practice
    Chen-1 The History of Microsurgery in Urological Practice Mang L. Chen1, Gregory M. Buncke2 and Paul J. Turek3 1G.U. Recon, San Francisco, CA, 94114 2The Buncke Clinic, San Francisco, CA 94114 3The Turek Clinic, Beverly Hills, CA 90210 Correspondence to: Mang Chen, MD G.U. Recon 45 Castro St, Suite 111 San Francisco, CA 94114 Tel: 415-481-3980 Email: [email protected] Chen-2 Abstract Operative microscopy spans all surgical disciplines, allowing human dexterity to perform beyond direct visual limitations. Microsurgery started in otolaryngology, became popular in reconstructive microsurgery, and was then adopted in urology. Starting with reproductive tract reconstruction of the vas and epididymis, microsurgery in urology now extends to varicocele repair, sperm retrieval, penile transplantation and free flap phalloplasty. By examining the peer reviewed and lay literature this review discusses the history of microsurgery and its subsequent development as a subspecialty in urology. Keywords: urology, microsurgery, phalloplasty, vasovasostomy, varicocelectomy Chen-3 I. Introduction Microsurgery has been instrumental to surgical advances in many medical fields. Otolaryngology, ophthalmology, gynecology, hand and plastic surgery have all embraced the operating microscope to minimize surgical trauma and scar and to increase patency rates of vessels, nerves and tubes. Urologic adoption of microsurgery began with vasectomy reversals, testis transplants, varicocelectomies and sperm retrieval and has now progressed to free flap phalloplasties and penile transplantation. In this review, we describe the origins of microsurgery, highlight the careers of prominent microsurgeons, and discuss current use applications in urology. II. Birth of Microsurgery 1) Technology The birth of microsurgery followed from an interesting marriage of technology and clinical need.

Although a relatively small group, they have been leaders in medical education and transplant medicine within Asia. Also present was Vasant Sumethkul, Kriengsak Vareesangthip and other members of the Thai Transplantation Society Council in a spirit of co-operation for the upcoming 2016 meeting. Whilst at the meeting, I had the opportunity to meet with the local liaison committee to discuss plans for the upcoming international congress of our Society that will be held in Hong Kong in 2016. Plans are well advanced and all the relevant committees have been set up and tasks allocated.

Buncamper Copy Editor: Cai-Hong Wang Production Editor: Jing Yu Abstract Complex penile reconstruction continues to pose a significant challenge to surgeons and patients alike. The ideal phalloplasty is one that can be reproducibly performed in a single stage, creates a neourethra that allows for voiding while standing, produces a phallus with tactile and erogenous sensation, allows for penetrative sexual intercourse, and offers satisfactory aesthetic results. With recent advances in microsurgery and perforator flap dissection, several techniques and modifications thereof have been described that aim to achieve these reconstructive goals. All of these now conventional techniques, however, fall short in one way or another - often with regards to urinary transport, the ability to achieve an erection, and the need for multiple surgical stages and revision operations.

Recent Findings Forty-six full-thickness vascularized abdominal wall transplants have been performed in 44 patients worldwide. Approximately 35% of abdominal wall transplant recipients will experience at least one episode of acute rejection in the first year after transplant, compared with rejection rates of 87.8% and 72.7% for hand and face transplant respectively. Recent evidence suggests that combining a skin containing abdominal wall transplant with an intestinal transplant does not appear to increase sensitization or de novo donor-specific antibody formation. Summary Published data suggests that abdominal wall transplantation is an effective safe solution to achieve primary closure of the abdomen after intestinal or multivisceral transplant. However, better data is needed to confirm observations made and to determine long-term outcomes, requiring standardized data collection and reporting and collaboration between the small number of active transplant centres around the world.

  • The Freedom of Scientific Research CONTEMPORARY ISSUES in BIOETHICS, LAW and MEDICAL HUMANITIES
    The freedom of scientific research CONTEMPORARY ISSUES IN BIOETHICS, LAW AND MEDICAL HUMANITIES Contemporary Issues in Bioethics, Law and Medical Humanities, edited by Rebecca Bennett and Simona Giordano, of the University of Manchester, was established to publish internationally respected book-length works – primarily monographs and edited collections, but also specialist textbooks – in contemporary issues in bioethics, law and the medical humanities and as such welcomes proposals from this range of academic approaches to pertinent issues in this area. The series focuses on the strong foundations and reputation of the University of Manchester’s world-leading scholars in bioethics and law, and its internationally respected Centre for Social Ethics and Policy. Works from across the humanities, brought to bear on contem- porary, historical and indeed future bioethical questions of the highest social and moral concern and interest, will find a perfect home within this series.
