Penile carcinogenesis can be superposed on vulvar carcinogenesis, with two pathways : with or without a link to HPV. Penile squamous cell carcinomas arise from precursor lesions: penile intraepithelial neoplasia (PeIN) defined by the presence of intraepithelial atypia, which can progress to invasive squamous cell carcinoma. Differentiated PeINs not linked to HPV, affect elderly men with inflammatory lesions, most often lichen sclerosus.

Introduction: Angiomyxomas are rare benign neoplasms of mesenchymal origin arising from the soft tissues of the perineum and pelvis.

Case Presentation: To our knowledge, we report the first case of ureteral angiomyxoma arising de novo in a fifty-four-year-old female patient who presented with macroscopic hematuria.

Discussion: The pathological findings, radiological features and operative management will be discussed.

Objective: This study sought to compare the incidental prostate cancer (iPCa) detection rate between pathological specimens from green laser enucleation of the prostate (GreenLEP) and open simple prostatectomy (OSP).

Materials And Methods: In two institutions, the charts of all consecutive patients who underwent OSP between January 2005 and December 2010 were retrospectively reviewed, and the data of all consecutive patients who underwent GreenLEP with tissue morcellation between July 2013 and January 2018 were also collected. Preoperative demographics and pathological findings were recorded.

Renal angiomyoadenomatous tumor has been described in 2000, followed by description of clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma in 2006. Discussions about possible relationship of both tumors were published since their description. The main differential diagnostic feature was considered presence/absence of fibroleiomyomatous stroma-relationship of renal angiomyoadenomatous tumor in stroma-rich tumors.

We evaluated the impact of SALL4 immunostaining on the diagnosis of non-testicular germ cell tumors in clinical practice. We retrieved cases of six mediastinal, five retroperitoneal, and eight central nervous system tumors that were diagnosed as extra-testicular germ cell tumors (GCT) as well as 20 location-matched non-GCT. Each tumor we stained immunohistochemically for PLAP, OCT3-4, CD117, CD30, FP, -HCG, glycipan-3, SALL 4, AE1-AE3, EMA, CK7, CK20, CD45, TTF1, vimentin, and GFA.
