Editorial Comment
The authors incorporated MRI findings and MRI targeted biopsy pathology into established nomograms that are widely used for preoperative prediction of adverse pathological features. Rayn et al suggest that MRI targeted biopsy pathology provides significantly improved prognostication of adverse pathology when added to the Partin (reference 3 in article) and MSKCC (reference 4 in article) nomograms.

This Month in Adult Urology
Published articles often refer to accepted treatments as the “gold standard,” typically meaning the treatment to which other approaches must be compared. Economists would scoff at such a phrase since gold reserve backing for currency has long been abandoned. Nonetheless, certain therapies are time tested and commonly accepted. One of these, certainly, is radical cystectomy for muscle invasive urothelial cancer of the bladder. (Source: The Journal of Urology)

Re: FDA BRUDAC 2018 Criteria for Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome Clinical Trials: Future Direction for Research
We read this article with interest. As mentioned by the authors, only 2 FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved therapies for interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) currently exist: oral pentosan polysulfate sodium (PPS) and intravesical dimethyl sulfoxide. We wish to alert readers to a concerning new observation of vision threatening retinal changes associated with long-term exposure to PPS. We recently reported our findings of retinal pigmentary changes in 6 patients undergoing long-term therapy with PPS. (Source: The Journal of Urology)
