A case of delayed diagnosis of bilateral ureteral and bladder injury after laparoscopic hysterectomy: an unusual complication.

The incidence of ureteral and bladder lesions after laparoscopic hysterectomy is the most encountered urinary complication in gynaecological surgery. We report the unusual case of 42-year-old woman who had a delayed diagnosis of bilateral ureteral injury associated with bladder lesion and loose of vaginal suture after undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy for uterine adenomyosis.

Discovery of a pituitary adenoma following a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist in a patient with prostate cancer.

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists have become the treatment of choice for locally advanced and metastatic prostate cancer. We report a case of prostate cancer in which this treatment led to severe symptoms of intracranial hypertension due to the concomitant presence of an asymptomatic functional pituitary adenoma. A 70-year-old white man was initially evaluated for a multifocal adenocarcinoma, Gleason score 6 (3+3) with perineural invasion suggesting an extracapsular extension.

Discovery of a pituitary adenoma following treatment with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist in a patient with prostate cancer.

We report the case of a T3 prostate cancer in a 70-year-old white man. Hormone therapy represents a prominent branch in the treatment of locally advanced and metastatic prostate cancer. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists have been proven to have a double effect on androgen metabolism: an initially stimulating, followed by an inhibitory, effect on the pituitary gland.

[Contribution of fluorescence immunocytochemistry (uCyt+TM) in the postoperative surveillance of bladder cancer].

Objective: To assess 1) the value of fluorescence immunocytochemistry (uCyt+ test, DiagnoCure Inc., Quebec) in the detection of recurrent bladder tumour after transurethral resection (TUR) and 2) the predictive value of a positive uCyt+ test in patients with negative cystoscopy.

Material And Methods: This study was based on 132 patients with a mean follow-up of 21.
