[Correlation between Gleason score on prostate biopsies diagnostic of adenocarcinoma and radical prostatectomy specimens].

Objectives: We analyse the concordance between Gleason scores on prostate biopsies diagnostic of adenocarcinoma and radical prostatectomy specimens.

Methods: We reviewed the charts of 214 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy between January 1992 and November 2002. We calculated the percentage of correct diagnosis, understaging and overstaging for individual Gleason and for groups with scores between 2-4, 5-6, 7 and 8-10.

[Collecting duct (Bellini) carcinoma].

Objectives: To report one case of collecting duct (Bellini) carcinoma and to review the national bibliography. To analyze the clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic features of this malignant renal tumor.

Methods/results: A 36-year-old male presenting with monosymptomatic hematuria and clot retention was diagnosed of left renal mass suggestive of renal carcinoma.

[Renal artery embolism].

Objectives: To report a case of renal artery embolism. To review the clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic features of this disease interesting for the urologist.

[High-flow priapism caused by bilateral arterio-lacunar fistula].

Objective: Literature review about arterial priapism cases secondary to bilateral postraumatic arterial-lacunar fistula, with special attention to therapeutic management by bilateral supraselective embolization.

Methods: Bibliographic search using MEDLINE. A new case of high flow priapism secondary to bilateral postraumatic arterial-lacunar fistula is reported.
