Article Synopsis
- Extravasation of urine from a forniceal rupture at the pelviureteric junction is a rare complication that can lead to significant issues.
- The case study focuses on a 50-year-old man who showed signs of peritonitis, diagnosed via abdominal CT scan as retroperitoneal peritonitis from the rupture.
- This situation highlights the unusual occurrence of pyonephrosis accompanied by peritonitis and pyoperitoneum, potentially linked to underlying bladder cancer.
Renal infarction is a rare pathology, which can be life-threatening for the kidney. Its low incidence and non-specific clinical manifestations make it difficult to diagnose, often resulting in delayed or misdiagnosis. Contrast-enhanced CT has a role to play in early positive diagnosis, enabling rapid and effective management.

- Varicocele, caused by dilated testicular veins, is a surgically correctable factor linked to male infertility, especially in men with severe oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT).
- A study involving 360 men demonstrated that varicocelectomy significantly improved sperm concentration, motility, morphology, and total motile sperm count (TMSC) at 6, 12, and 18 months post-surgery.
- The procedure also led to a reduction in sperm DNA fragmentation, indicating better overall sperm quality and suggesting the potential for improved fertility outcomes.
Orchiepididymitis is a rare complication of acute pancreatitis and leads to misdiagnosis and unnecessary surgery. Abdominal pelvic CT and testicular Doppler ultrasound are the two key examinations in this situation. This is about a 38-year-old patient, seen in the emergency room in an initial picture of right orchiepididymitis secondary to a migration of pancreatic fluid collection treated with antibiotic therapy with monitoring.

- * A case study involved a 66-year-old male experiencing hematuria, diagnosed with bladder papilloma after imaging and cystoscopy revealed an echogenic lesion, which was confirmed to be benign post-surgery.
- * Understanding bladder papilloma's symptoms, diagnosis, and management strategies is crucial, especially since it typically appears in younger patients and presents a low risk for recurrence or progression to aggressive cancer.
