The Role of Suprapubic Superficial Fascial System Reconstruction During Repair of Adult-Acquired Buried Penis.

Background: Adult-Acquired Buried Penis is a disorder associated with systemic obesity that confers increased risks of malignancy, sexual dysfunction, urinary abnormalities, and psychological distress. Surgical correction improves patient-reported functional and psychological outcomes and often requires collaboration between plastic and urologic surgeons. To improve postoperative cosmetic outcomes and decrease wound complications following adult-acquired buried penis repair, we performed an anatomic and histologic study of the superficial fascial layers providing support to the external male genitalia and describe our approach for fascial reconstruction.

Utility of cytopathologic diagnosis of adult solid renal lesions: An academic Institution's 10-year experience.

Background: Fine needle aspiration (FNA) and/or needle core biopsy (NCB) are increasingly used for managing patients with renal lesions, especially small renal masses (SRMs). One of the treatment options for SMRs is active surveillance. Hence, accurate diagnosis of renal lesions is critical for treatment planning.

Molecular Characterization of Malignant Renal Epithelioid Angiomyolipoma: A Review of Two Cases.

Objectives: Epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML, perivascular epithelioid cell tumor) is an uncommon primary renal tumor that may recur or metastasize, although there remain limited data for prediction of these outcomes. Here, we report two cases of renal EAML with molecular testing, adding to the existing literature of potential alterations associated with malignant behavior.

Methods: Tumors diagnosed as malignant renal EAML were identified, and clinical data, radiology, histology, immunohistochemistry, and molecular testing results were reviewed.

Extramammary paget disease of the penoscrotal region.

Extramammary Paget disease is an uncommon slow growing intraepithelial malignant neoplasm. It can be classified into primary and secondary subtypes, with secondary subtype associated with underlying malignancy. Extramammary Paget disease of the penoscrotal region is extremely rare with very limited literature available describing its clinicopathologic characteristics.

Pure post-pubertal yolk sac tumor of the testis: An extremely rare and aggressive entity.

Context: Pure post-pubertal yolk sac tumors (YSTs) are an extremely rare type of malignant germ cell tumor (GCT) that account for <1 % of testicular GCTs. Clinically, they are more aggressive compared to the more common pre-pubertal counterpart. The aim of this study is to analyze the clinical presentation, ancillary tests and clinical outcomes in addition to presenting a spectrum of histomorphological features, in a case series along with a literature review.

Malignant germ cell tumors in men aged 50 years and over are associated with adverse pathologic features and higher stage at presentation.

Background: Germ cell tumors (GCT) are the most common malignancy in men in the third and fourth decades of life. The occurrence of malignant GCT in men aged 50 years or over is rare, and their histopathologic characteristics and outcome is insufficiently characterized in the medical literature. Hence, we report the histopathologic features and clinical outcome of malignant GCTs in men aged ≥50 years at our institution.

The osteoclast-type giant cell rich carcinoma of urinary bladder: A case series.

Background: Osteoclast-type giant cell-rich carcinomas (OGCRCs) of urinary bladder are extremely rare, aggressive tumors that are often diagnosed as undifferentiated carcinomas. The morphology overlaps with other giant cell-rich benign and malignant bladder lesions. Little is known about the pathogenesis and clinical management of this aggressive variant.

Calyceal diverticula: Clinical, radiological and histopathological findings of an uncommon entity with presumed congenital origin.

Calyceal diverticula (CD) are relatively uncommon urologic conditions that generally follow an asymptomatic course and rarely require medical intervention. CD are thought to have a congenital origin due to abnormalities during the process of ureteral bud formation. Clinically and radiologically, they can mimic multiple neoplastic and non-neoplastic renal processes, with potentially relevant differences in the management of these patients.

Adenomatoid tumor of the testis: A rare case report.

Adenomatoid tumors (AT) are benign tumors commonly found in paratesticular tissues. However, intratesticular AT are rare. Clinically and radiologically, the AT of the testis imitates the malignant neoplasia of the testis.

An artificial intelligence algorithm for prostate cancer diagnosis in whole slide images of core needle biopsies: a blinded clinical validation and deployment study.

Background: There is high demand to develop computer-assisted diagnostic tools to evaluate prostate core needle biopsies (CNBs), but little clinical validation and a lack of clinical deployment of such tools. We report here on a blinded clinical validation study and deployment of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based algorithm in a pathology laboratory for routine clinical use to aid prostate diagnosis.

Methods: An AI-based algorithm was developed using haematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained slides of prostate CNBs digitised with a Philips scanner, which were divided into training (1 357 480 image patches from 549 H&E-stained slides) and internal test (2501 H&E-stained slides) datasets.
