RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Several enhanced recovery protocols after surgery showed a benefit for postoperative recovery and reduction of hospital lengths of stay. Very few studies evaluated patient's satisfaction about these enhanced recovery protocols. The aim of this study was to evaluate patient's satisfaction about our enhanced recovery protocol for robotic-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN). METHODS: A validated survey EORTC In PATSAT32 with a specific questionnaire about protocol was sent to the first patients included in the enhanced recovery protocol for RAPN. The survey was sent after the postoperative consultation at postoperative day 30. Responses were anonymous. Satisfaction's scores for EORTC questionnaire were calculated for each dimension with Likert's method. Scores were transformed linearly into a scale ranging from 0 to 100, where 100 represent the highest level of care satisfaction (EORTC method). RESULTS: A total of 21 patients (50%) returned the completed questionnaire. The overall satisfaction score was 75.1% (37.3; 100) in the EORTC survey. In total, 71.4% of patients (n=15) were satisfied with the discharge at postoperative day 2 (POD2) and 5 patients (23.8%) found this premature. None of the patients had a negative impression on the clinical pathway. The average overall evaluation on the protocol by patients, on a satisfaction scale of 1 to 10 was 8.9/10. CONCLUSION: In this study, patients included in the enhanced recovery protocol after RAPN were very satisfied with their pre-, per- and postoperative care. Given patients satisfaction, reduction of LOS, patient's safety and the medicoeconomic advantage, these enhanced recovery protocol have become a priority to develop and evaluate. More large studies are needed to assess the patient's experience with these clinical pathways. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

INTRODUCTION: Spinal anesthesia in outpatient urology is controversial (longer hospital stay, risk of urinary retention). The main goal was to evaluate outpatient spinal anesthesia and to compare 2 local anesthetics secondarily. MATERIAL: Monocentric retrospective study including all patients undergoing surgery in urological ambulatory surgery under spinal anesthesia between December 2011 and May 2015, split into two groups according to the local anesthetic used: bupivacaine (BP) and chloroprocaine (CP). Quantitative variables were compared by Student's t-test, qualitative variables by χ2 test. RESULTS: Seventy-one (95%) out of the 75 patients included have been discharged the same day. Discharge was impossible in these cases: patient alone at home (1), bladder clot (1), JJ intolerance (1), delayed micturition (1). The mean duration of the procedure was 27±19min, the SSPI's was 55±31min, the stay's was 360±91min. A total of 45 patients (60%) received BP and 30 (40%) received CP. The mean residence time in SSPI was significantly reduced in the CP group (47±24min vs. 61±34min, P=0.04). One patient experienced urination delay in the BP group with no significant difference. No significant difference for the other criteria studied despite the mean age, which is higher in the CP group (P=0.02). CONCLUSION: Spinal anesthesia is adapted to ambulatory urology, and does not increase the risk of urinary retention, especially with CP that would decrease the length of stay in SSPI compared to BP. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

PURPOSE: To evaluate middle term results of surgical sphincterotomy in neurogenic bladder dysfunction with detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia. PATIENTS AND METHOD: Retrospective study about 44 patients whom underwent urinary sphincterotomy between January 2008 and September 2012. All patients had detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia. Mean age was 49.7 years. Seventy percent (n=30) of patients had spinal cord injury, 80% (n=34) underwent urethral stent. Sphincterotomy was performed in 55% (n=24) with monopolar resection and in 43% (n=19) with Revolix(®) laser, after urethral stent withdrawal. RESULTS: Mean follow-up was 30 months. Mean hospitalization stay was 5 days. Mean preoperative post-voiding residue (PVR) was 149mL and postoperative was 176mL. Twenty-nine percent (n=13) underwent new sphincterotomy with a final mean 116mL PVR, and a mean delay before new sphincterotomy of 9 months. Twenty percent (n=9) underwent other surgical procedure for sphincterotomy fail. CONCLUSION: In this series, we observed that surgical sphincterotomy is a well tolerated procedure, but with moderate immediate efficiency about 57%. It requires sometimes second procedure and long term follow-up in order not to fail to recognize stenosis, with best surgical success (80%).
