Unilocular huge renal hydatid cyst mimicking simple cyst: A rare case report.

Hydatid cyst is commonly involve the liver and lung, but involvement of the kidney is very rare. We present a case of a young female presented to our institute with right abdominal mass, diagnosed as query liver hydated cyst with right renal simple cyst. Unfortunately, during deroofing of the simple renal cyst, there was a spillage inside the abdomen, hydated cyst was suspected and underwent removal of liver and kidney cysts.

Management of iatrogenic ureteral injury: Ureteral reimplantation with a bilateral Boari flap.

Reconstruction of the ureter is still regarded as a sophisticated approach demanding absolute dedication of the urologists. Similarly, iatrogenic ureteral injuries, as well as strictures, are quite common complexities of the pelvic and gynecological surgeries which if left untreated could lead to short as well as long-term issues. Presently, a case of a post-caesarian section along with hysterectomy of 40 years old woman has been presented that has resulted in distal left ureteral injury.

Robot-assisted hysterectomy in a 41-year-old male: A rare case report.

Persistent Müllerian Duct Syndrome (PMDS) is regarded as a rare genetic disorder influencing internal sexual male development. PMDS is commonly diagnosed incidentally either during any pelvic surgery or examination of undescended testis. Currently, we have presented a case focusing on the phenotype individual who was presented to our institute with primary infertility as well as bilateral undescended testis, who underwent Robotic-assisted hysterectomy, left orchidectomy, and right orchiopexy.

Patient with duplex ureter injury underwent robot assisted laparoscopic common sheath ureteral reimplantation single docking: Case report.

Ureteral injury is common complication that need comprehensive understanding of ureteral injury management from minimal invasive intervention to ureteral reimplant in both early and late presentation. However, ureteral injury in duplex system rarely reported in literature. Here we are sharing our techniques and challenging in a patient who had a duplex ureteral injury with late presentation underwent robot assisted ureteral reimplantation.

Acute scrotum in elderly; is it torsion !

Testicular torsion occurs most frequently in a preadulthood age. In geriatric people, it is very rare and should not be an exclusion criterion for the diagnosis. Lack of awareness about testicular torsion in elderly people may end up with delayed or misdiagnosis.

Incidental Finding of Adrenal Oncocytoma After Right Robotic Adrenalectomy: Case Report and Literature Review.

Oncocytic neoplasms occur in several organs and are most commonly found in the thyroid, kidneys and salivary glands. Oncocytic neoplasms of the adrenal cortex are extremely rare and are usually non-functioning, benign and incidentally detected. However, histologically, they are characterized by cells with eosinophilic granular cytoplasm and numerous packed mitochondria.

Early Robotic Repair of Vesicouterine Fistula: A Case Report and Literature Review.

As cesarean sections become a more common mode of delivery, they have become the most likely cause of vesicouterine fistula formation. The associated pathology with repeat cesarean deliveries may make repair of these fistulas difficult. Early robotic-surgery offers a 3-dimensional view of the operative field and allows for intricate movements necessary for complex suturing and dissection.
