[Urodynamic changes after transobturator suburethral tape].

Introduction: Prospective study of urodynamic changes induced by transobturator insertion of suburethral tape a dip-stick under-urethral.

Materials And Methods: 25 women with pure (12) or mixed (13) stress urinary incontinence were operated by this technique, allowing urodynamic assessment and completion of the MHU urinary disability questionnaire. Three operators performed these 25 tape insertions in 2 centres (Amiens and St Quentin hospitals) according to a standardized technique.

[Emphysematous cystitis complicated by bladder perforation: diagnosis and treatment of a rare case].

Emphysematous cystitis is a rare disease mainly encountered in poorly controlled diabetics, immunodepressed patients or patients with infravesical obstruction. The pathophysiology of this disease is characterized by the formation of carbon dioxide (CO2) present in the lumen and/or bladder wall, derived from bacterial fermentation of carbohydrates. The bacteria most frequently responsible are facultative aerobes-anaerobes (Escherichia coli) and more rarely strict anaerobes (Clostridium perfringens).

[Multifocal urothelial tumors and renal autotransplantation].

The authors report the case of a patient with multiple urothelial tumours only sparing the superior left ureter and the urethra. The complex treatment consisted of a combination of resection of the entire urinary tract, except for the left kidney and its proximal ureter that was transplanted into the right iliac fossa, after ex vivo partial pyelectomy. This complex treatment regimen avoided the need for dialysis with a good functional and oncological result, three years later.
