Emergent Embolization of a Very Late Detected Pseudoaneurysm at a Lower Pole Subsegmental Artery of the Kidney after Clampless Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy.

Renal artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare but life-threatening condition. Its incidence is higher after minimally invasive partial nephrectomy (PN) than after the open approach. We reported a case of a renal artery pseudoaneurysm occurred about four months after a clampless laparoscopic PN.

A very large leiomyoma of the urethra: A case report.

Introduction: Leiomyomas are benign mesenchymal tumours of smooth muscle origin. They are the most common uterine masses in women of reproductive age group and may be related to the hormonal status. Urethral leiomyomas are very rare.

PTPD1 supports receptor stability and mitogenic signaling in bladder cancer cells.

PTPD1, a cytosolic non-receptor protein-tyrosine phosphatase, stimulates the Src-EGF transduction pathway. Localization of PTPD1 at actin cytoskeleton and adhesion sites is required for cell scattering and migration. Here, we show that during EGF stimulation, PTPD1 is rapidly recruited to endocytic vesicles containing the EGF receptor.
