Numb chin syndrome: the presenting symptom of a metastatic prostate carcinoma.

Numb chin syndrome is a sensory neuropathy characterized by numbness involving the distribution of the mental nerve that could be an uncommon manifestation of metastatic malignancy. Bony metastases are common in patients with advanced prostate carcinoma and involving preferentially vertebrae, sternum, pelvic bones, ribs and femurs. We report a case in an 82-year-old man presenting a history of mental neuropathy as the isolated presenting symptom of a widespread metastatic prostate cancer Numb chin syndrome was describe in some reviews as a late component of a previously diagnosed disease but this report underline the importance of this neuropathy as the isolated presenting symptom of a widespread metastatic prostate cancer.

Giant renal cyst complicated with acquired crossed renal ectopia, hypertension and renal cell carcinoma: case report and review of the literature.

Simple renal cysts are acquired kidney lesion that are described as spherical, smoothed surfaced, with a serous, sub-yellow content. They are generally considered as a harmless anomaly, however cases of complicated renal cysts have been reported. We present a case of an enormous renal cyst (the biggest ever described) containing more than 25 L of fluid mimicking ascites, complicated with controlateral displacement of ipsilateral functional kidney and intra-abdominal organs, renal cell carcinoma and hypertension.

Complete genital prosthetization in patients treated with bilateral orchiectomy for metachronous testicular cancer.

Unlabelled: Testicular malignant tumours represent 1% of neoplasms. The probability of developing a contralateral tumour is between 3% and 7%. We report two cases of complete genital prosthetization in two patients treated with bilateral orchiectomy for metachronous testicular cancer.

A 7-year history of an intratesticular mass: patient description and review of the literature about dermoid cysts of the testis.

A dermoid cyst is a particular form of a cystic teratoma. In the testis, it is very rare, with only a few cases reported in world literature. A 19-year-old patient come to our attention with a 7-year history of an intratesticular cystic mass.

Testosterone supplementation in hypogonadal men: our personal experience.

Introduction And Objectives: Around thirty years of age, we assist to a physiological, progressive and slow involution of the testicular function accompanied by a fall of the plasmatic levels of testosterone. Rarely hypogonadism is manifest in so young age with signs and symptoms, unless it is subsequent to severe events. After 50 years of age, it can present with a series of aspects that negatively influence the physical and sexual efficiency.
