Abstract

Penile metastasis from incidental prostate carcinoma has not been described to date.The case of a 72-year-old man affected by penile metastasis from incidental prostate carcinoma is described. In March 1998, the patient underwent prostate surgery for lower urinary tract symptoms related to benign prostatic obstruction. Histological examination revealed an incidental adenocarcinoma of the prostate. The pre-operative prostate-specific antigen (PSA) value was 3.6 ng/ml. A prostate biopsy in the peripheral prostate lobes was negative. PSA progressively rose to 8 ng/ml. The prostate biopsy was repeated and was still negative. The patient was subjected to radiotherapy, as a result of which his PSA fell to 0.7 ng/ml. 4 years after prostatectomy, the PSA rose again and the patient underwent hormonal therapy. The PSA fell to0.001 ng/ml. In May 2004, the patient reported a painful, erythematous nodule on his penis glans. Surgical biopsy showed a metastasis from prostate adenocarcinoma and he underwent partial penectomy. Due to disease progression, the patient underwent medical therapy. PSA and testosterone were always at minimum levels. 20 months later the patient died.We underline the uncertainty of the biological behaviour and optimal management of incidentally identified prostate carcinoma. In addition, we highlight that biological and clinical progression could be the consequence of inadequate treatment recommendations.

Abstract

Stone formation in the urinary tract affects about 5–10% of the population in industrialized countries, although it is very rare in other countries such as Greenland or Japan. The high incidence and recurrence rate contribute to making the urolithiasis a serious social problem. Nowadays, urolithiasis must be considered a ‘disease in evolution’ for several reasons, such as epidemiological changes, evolution of the methods used for diagnosis, and the treatment and prophylaxis of the population considered ‘at risk’ of stone disease. Some features of stone disease have changed over the last few years due to many social, economical and cultural factors that are described here. The increased prevalence of small urinary calculi has brought about a change in clinical symptoms, with frequent episodes of renal-ureteral colic, persistent pain and hydronephrosis. Similarly, the presence of residual fragments after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy has induced a radical change in the management of small calculi through the use of mini-invasive surgical techniques.

Abstract

Introduction: Reno-ureteral colic presents with a complex of acute symptoms that usually indicate the presence of a stone in the collecting system, The aim of any treatment is pain relief, stone removal and preservation of kidney function. We focused our review on the pathophysiological aspects of reno-ureteral colic and, briefly, on its treatment. Materials and Methods: A complete overview of contemporary literature regarding renoureteral colic was performed by using MEDLINE and website on-line publications like EAU Guidelines. Results: Clinical presentation of renoureteral colic, of mechanisms of ureteral peristalsis and pathophysiology of renal colic is described. An overview of the available medical treatments is presented. Conclusions: An accurate comprehension of the pathophysiology of reno-ureteral colic allows the physician to tailor the best treatment for each patient.

Abstract

A patient who had previously undergone ileal neobladder with Studer technique presented an urethral recurrence of a transitional cell carcinoma. Further surgical treatment consisted of urethrectomy and creation of an intussuscepted ileal loop which was anastomosed to the pouch and provided a continence mechanism allowing self-catheterization.

Abstract

Retroperitoneal abscesses are very uncommon clinical conditions. The characteristically vague symptomatology of retroperitoneal abscess and the inherent difficulty of identifying retroperitoneal disease by physical examination contributed to these dismal therapeutic outcomes. We present an unusual case of lethal retroperitoneal abscess, caused by Citrobacter diversus(koseri), treated with surgical drainage. Citrobacter species have rarely been involved in deep tissue infection and there is no reported case of lethal retroperitoneal abscess caused by C. koseri. This case is the only reported case of C. koseri as the sole pathogen associated with a lethal retroperitoneal abscess in immunocompetent patient. The case is also notable because it confirms the recent bacterial resistance to β-lactam antibiotics and to other antimicrobical agents, like chloramphenicol or cotrimoxazol.

Abstract

A giant stone in enterocystoplasty is a very rare condition; only 5 cases have been reported in the literature. A 50-year-old female with an enterocystoplasty due to congenital myelomeningocele presented at our institution for an asymptomatic 10-cm bladder stone, incidentally detected during an imaging procedure for uterine fibroma. The patient was treated with a laparoscopic hysterectomy with bilateral annexectomy, neocystotomy and stone removal under general anesthesia. The case report and an accurate literature review are reported. The incidence, risk factors, pathophysiology and treatment options are analyzed.
