Purpose: The aim of this work is to review and synthesize the existing evidence and recommendations regarding to the therapeutic and surgical indications as well as monitoring of patients with Penile Cancer in COVID-19 era and to propose an action protocol to facilitate decision-making.

Material And Methods: A non-systematic review of the literature regarding the management of penile cancer during the COVID-19 pandemic was performed until April 30, 2020. We propose our recommendations based on this evidence.

[Treatment of uretero-renal stones with shock wave lithotripsy. Results and complications with the dornier gemini emse 220f-XXP.].

Objectives: Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is a minimally invasive therapeutic option for the treatment of renal-ureteral lithiasis. The aim of this study was to analyze the results and complications of shock wave extracorporeal lithotripsy treatment with the Dornier Gemini® Generator EMSE 220f-XXP device in patients with renal and ureteral lithiasis.

Material And Methods: Retrospective study including 377 patients with renal or ureteral lithiasis with indication for treatment with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy.

Risk of renal stone formation in patients treated with luteinising hormone-releasing hormone analogues for prostate cancer: importance of bone metabolism and urine calcium.

Purpose: To determine whether androgen blockade produces metabolic changes in urine and increases the risk of calculi after 1 year of treatment.

Materials And Methods: The study included 38 patients, from the period April 2015 to June 2016, diagnosed with locally advanced prostate cancer or lymph node metastasis, and with an indication of androgen blockade. Androgen blockade was started with luteinising hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) analogues, and a blood specimen, a fasting urine and 24-h urine were collected at the time of inclusion, and then at 1 year of follow-up.

[Etiopathogenic factors of the different types of urinary litiasis.].

In this review, we analyze the etiopathogenic principles of urinary lithiasis formation. In the kidney, calcifications that may cause renal lithiasis are produced as a consequence of processes that injury the urothelium at the papilla and Bellini's ducts. With the improvement of imaging techniques, mainly micro CT scan, it is possible to detect them and we may be able to anticipate to the formation of lithiasis.

Hematospermia as a Rare Form of Presentation of Zinner Syndrome.
