Locally Aggressive Mixed Epithelial and Stromal Tumour of Kidney Leading to Nephron Loss.

Mixed epithelial and stromal tumour (MEST) is a rare benign renal tumour. It is mainly found in perimenopausal women. We present a case of a 42-year female with no known comorbid who was presented in the outpatient clinic for the right flank pain.

Foreign Body in Kidney Presenting as Renal Stone.

Retained foreign bodies in the urinary system are commonly found in the urinary bladder but are a rare finding in the renal pelvis. Foreign objects can reach the renal pelvis via different pathways. The presence of a foreign body could be iatrogenic, or via direct penetration from the gastrointestinal tract.

Nephron sparing surgery for renal tumors-comparison of off-clamp partial nephrectomy with hilar clamping.

Background And Objective: Open partial nephrectomy (PN) is still considered gold standard procedure for T1 localized renal tumors. Conventional technique involves clamping of the renal artery with or without vein however, renal ischemia produces a certain level of damage to the kidneys. This study aims to investigate potential effect of off-clamp vs.

Spontaneous rupture of pyonephrosis leading to pyoperitoneum.

Forniceal rupture after pyonephrosis can lead to retroperitoneal abscess but extension into peritoneal cavity is unusual. We present a case of 50 year old lady who presented with acute abdomen, CT scan of abdomen showed features suggestive of left pyelonephritis and large intraperitoneal collection.

Adrenalectomy for solitary metastasis of Hepatocellular carcinoma post liver transplantation: Case report and literature review.

Liver transplantation (LT) is the treatment of choice for localized hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) associated with cirrhosis. Extra hepatic metastasis is the most common cause of death in these patients. There is very little evidence regarding the natural history and treatment options for patients developing HCC recurrence after LT.

The accuracy of three-dimensional bladder ultrasonography in determining the residual urinary volume compared with conventional catheterisation.

Objective: To determine the accuracy of three-dimensional bladder ultrasonography (US, using the BVI 3000, Verathon, WA, USA) for determining the residual urinary volume, compared with the conventional catheterisation method.

Patients And Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study at day-care unit of a University hospital after obtaining approval from the Ethics Review Committee of the hospital. Thirty-four patients with lower urinary tract symptoms requiring cystometrography were included.

Pheochromocytoma associated with von Hippel-lindau disease in a Pakistani family.

Objectives: The aim was to study the presentation, disease characteristics, operative outcome, and prognosis in patients with familial Pheochromocytoma associated with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease.

Materials And Methods: There were six patients belonging to two generations of a single family who developed features of VHL over a period of 13 years and were treated at our institute. Patients' characteristics, that is, age, gender, presenting complaints and clinical signs, laboratory and biochemical evaluation, and the presence of associated conditions was gathered from medical records.

Late presentation of posterior urethral valves.

Presence of posterior urethral valves (PUV) is the most common cause of urinary tract obstruction in the male neonate. Late presentation occurs in 10% of cases. We present a case of PUVs in an adult male who presented with history of obstructive lower urinary tract symptoms and hematuria.
