Objective: Report a case of a scrotum-perinea lGranular Cell Tumor (GCT) in pediatric age.
Methods: To report a case.
Results: A 12 years old men with a multiple GCT history, located in both extremities, abdomen and scrotum perineal region.
Background: Aim of our study was to evaluate learning curve of the Millin simple prostatectomy analyzing three expert laparoscopic surgeons.
Methods: Learning curve of 3 expert laparoscopic surgeons with excellent radical prostatectomy training was evaluated. Surgeon 1 had more than 20 years of experience, while other surgeons had 10 years of experience.
Laparoscopic simple prostatectomy vs bipolar plasma enucleation of the prostate in large benign prostatic hyperplasia: a two-center 3-year comparison.

July 2021
Purpose: To compare surgery outcomes and safety of button bipolar enucleation of the prostate vs laparoscopic simple prostatectomy in patients with large prostates (> 80 g) in a two-center cohort study.
Methods: All patients with lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic enlargement (Prostate volume > 80 cc) undergoing button bipolar enucleation of the prostate (BTUEP) or laparoscopic simple prostatectomy (LSP) in two centers were enrolled. Data on clinical history, physical examination, urinary symptoms, uroflowmetry and prostate volume were collected at 0, 1, 3 6, 12, 24 and 36 months.
Backround: The aim of our study was to analyze outcomes and safety of laparoscopic simple prostatectomy (LSP) in a high-volume center.
Methods: A consecutive series of men with lower urinary tract symptoms and large prostates (>80 cc) prospectively enrolled between November 2015 and December 2017 in one center. All patients underwent laparoscopic simple prostatectomy.
Objectives: To report the case and iconography of a lymphocele after renal transplantation and to review the literature about the diagnosis and the treatment of this surgical complication.
Methods: 69 year-old woman status post renal transplantation who presents right lower extremity edema and worsening renal function. A liquid collection was demonstrated by ultrasound and computerized tomography, compatible with lymphocele after biochemical study of the liquid obtained by percutaneous puncture.
Objective: To report the case and the iconography of a lymphocele after renal transplantation and to review the literature about the diagnosis and treatment of this surgical complication.
Methods: 69 year-old woman who undergone renal transplantation and presented right lower extremity edema and worsening renal function. It was demonstrated by ultrasound and computerized tomography a liquid collection, compatible with lymphocele after biochemical study of the liquid which was obtained by percutaneous puncture.
Renal atrophy with an ectopic drainage of the ureter is an uncommon malformation. Zinder described in 1914 a cystic dilation of the seminal vesicle in association with an ipsilateral renal agenesis. Usually, these patients present lower urinary tract symptoms with perineal discomfort and fever.

Methods: 53-year-old patient presenting with a painful, hard tumor in the penis three months after right radical nephrectomy with cavotomy and thrombus excision.
Results/conclusions: Imaging tests and biopsy led to the diagnosis of metastasis of a renal carcinoma in the corpus cavernosum, which was confirmed on the pathologic study of the specimen after penectomy.
Objectives: To establish the prevalence of incidental prostate cancer after transrectal ultrasound guided prostatic biopsy and subsequent suprapubic prostatic adenomectomy and to compare it with a similar group of patients who did not underwent biopsy before surgery. To evaluate treatment, outcomes, and disease progression in patients with incidental prostate cancer.
Methods: Retrospective study of 549 suprapubic adenomectomy performed between 1996-2001 (6 yr.
Objectives: To determine the percentage of renal cell carcinomas incidentally diagnosed (IRCC) and to compare their clinical and pathological characteristics with symptomatic or non-incidentally diagnosed tumors (SRCC).
Methods: We retrospectively study 189 patients who were diagnosed of renal carcinoma between 1990 and 1999. 166 underwent surgery (149 radical nephrectomy; 17 nephron-sparing surgery).
Objectives: To report another rare case of skin metastasis from a renal adenocarcinoma, analyzing the prognostic significance, response to therapy, and clinical presentation after a bibliographic review.
Methods/results: We report the case of a 65-year-old male with a cutaneous metastasis in the root of his inferior left extremity one year after right nephrectomy for a clear cell adenocarcinoma.
Conclusions: Skin metastases usually present as solitary cutaneous lesions of variable macroscopic features and rapid growing; the diagnosis is made by histological analysis, being excision the treatment of choice whenever possible.
Objectives: To perform a review and update of the antiphospholipid syndrome summarizing its urological presentations.
Methods: A complete bibliographic search was performed through PubMed MEDLINE and articles were reviewed with special attention to those bibliographic references about urological presentations. We document the unique and unpublished case of a patient with neurogenic bladder secondary to antiphospholipid syndrome.
Objectives: To determine the age of onset of urolithiasis in patients with urinary calcium stones and to establish the relationship between age of onset and clinical profile and metabolic risk factors.
Methods: A total of 500 patients with the diagnosis of calcium urinary lithiasis (average age 47.4 years, range 20-75) were asked regarding the age of onset of the disease.
Objectives: To analyse the role of CT-scan on preoperative determination of bladder and lymph node involvement of infiltrative bladder cancer, and its possible impact on the surgical management of these patients.
Methods: Retrospective study including 115 patients with the diagnosis of infiltrative bladder cancer between 1984 and 1999. The ability of CT-scan for bladder and lymph node staging was evaluated comparing results with the findings after radical surgery.
