[Severe hypoglycemia caused by sulfonylureas and biguanides in a patient with obstructive anuria: resolution with ureteral stent].

We report about a single kidney patient affected by a critical hypoglycemia due to acute renal failure in obstructive uropathy whilst receiving sulfonylureas and biguanides for diabetes. Clinical picture was successfully treated by endoureteral lithotripsy and placing a double j catheter.

Neoadiuvant Treatment With Intravesical Interleukin-2 for Recurrent Superficial Transitional Bladder Carcinoma Ta-T1/G1-2.

SUMMARY: The aim of this study was to evaluate the direct action of IL-2 on recurrent superficial transitional bladder carcinoma and the effect on recurrence rate. 27 patients were submitted to neoadjuvant treatment by intra-vesical instillation of recombinant IL-2 and to transurethral resection. We did not observe any effect on neoplasms but the recurrence rate was less than the expected one.
