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.
The Mitomycin C is a chemotherapeutic agent used in several types of carcinomas. In the superficial vesical carcinoma comes using since more than a quarter century in the form of endovesical instillations. It is a drug relatively safe, although there have been described adverse effects related to its systemic administration as myelosuppression, anaemia, kidney toxicity and less frequently pulmonary fibrosis.

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/results: We present the case of a patient diagnosed and treated in our department describing diagnosis and therapeutic management.
Conclusions: Melanoma of the penis is an uncommon presentation form of this kind of cutaneous tumor.
Objective: To report the case of an epididymal and spermatic cord metastasis of a colon adenocarcinoma.
Methods/results: We present the case of a 67 years old man, who presents several months after subtotal left colectomy for a left colon adenocarcinoma (pT3 NoMo), with a symptomatic right palpable testicular tumour. Right orchiectomy was done, demonstrating colon adenocarcinoma metastasis.
Objective: We describe a rare case, the metastasis of a renal clear cell carcinoma in the corpora cavernosum of the penis.
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).
Has a 3-fold decreased dose of bacillus Calmette-Guerin the same efficacy against recurrences and progression of T1G3 and Tis bladder tumors than the standard dose? Results of a prospective randomized trial.
J Urol
October 2005
Purpose: We determined if a third of the dose of intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) has the same efficacy than a standard dose for decreasing the risk of recurrence and progression after transurethral resection in patients with superficial high risk (stages T1G3 and carcinoma in situ) bladder cancer. Also, we evaluated toxic side effects.
Material And Methods: A total of 155 patients with a mean age +/- SD of 67 +/- 10.
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.
Varicocele is a dilation of the pampiniform venous plexus in the spermatic cord. It appears in 15% approximately of general population males. It is the most commonly identifiable, surgically treatable lesion associated with male infertility.

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.
