A consecutive series of 120 patients with adrenal tumours undergoing robot-assisted retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy were included. Patients were divided into two groups group A (hypertension group, 58 cases, mean age 43.59 years) and group B (normotension group, 62 cases, mean age 48.01 years). General anaesthesia was applied using endotracheal intubation and haemodynamic changes were closely monitored. A total of nine (7.5%) hypertensive crisis cases were observed. After intravenous infusion of sodium nitroprusside, seven cases of them were quickly controlled and two cases experienced transient severe hypertension. The incidence of hypertensive crisis was 13.7% and 1.6% in groups A and B, respectively (p<0.05). These findings highlight the importance of strengthening the monitoring of anaesthesia and taking various measures to effectively control the blood pressure in robot-assisted retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy, especially among hypertensive patients. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening the monitoring of anaesthesia and taking various measures to effectively control the blood pressure in robot-assisted retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy, especially among hypertensive patients. The aim of this study is to determine the risk factors predicting upper urinary tract (UUT) deterioration in children with spinal cord injury (SCI). The medical records of 108 children with SCI who were referred to our unit between 1996 and 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. The data included general patient demographics, SCI characteristics, bladder management methods, presence of urinary tract infection, radiological evaluation of the UUT and lower urinary tract (LUT), and videourodynamicfindings. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve
