Renal-Protective Urinoma Formation in a Newborn Boy With Posterior Urethral Valves.

Posterior urethral valves (PUV) are an uncommon urologic congenital anomaly in males often discovered antenatally and more rarely after birth. PUV can lead to obstructive nephropathy and voiding dysfunction, putting patients at increased risk for irreversible renal damage and subsequent progression to end-stage renal disease. Much of the renal damage caused by PUV is proportional to the amount of time that the kidney has been experiencing retrograde pressure.

Extensive scrotal lymphangioma circumscriptum: A case report with successful treatment with staged CO2 laser ablation.

Scrotal lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) is an uncommon, benign skin disorder with multiple treatment modalities. We present staged treatment of extensive LC of the scrotum using staged carbon dioxide (CO2) laser ablation. We achieved near complete resolution of lesions with excellent cosmesis in the span of four months, from presentation to treatment.

Large pelvic hematoma following UroLift procedure causing renal failure requiring dialysis.

The prostatic urethral lift procedure is a minimally invasive treatment option for lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia, with reported benefit of less adverse effects than traditional treatments. While complications are usually minimal, our patient developed a large pelvic hematoma and the first case of organ failure after prostatic urethral lift. He required temporary dialysis during his extended postoperative admission, and his chronic kidney disease permanently progressed from stage III to stage IV.

Metastatic Paraganglioma Presenting as Incontinence in a 15-Year-Old Girl.

Chromaffin cell tumors are derived from neural crest cells and can produce and secrete catecholamines. Classic symptoms include headache, palpitations, diaphoresis, and hypertension. Diagnosis is typically in adulthood, and metastatic disease is rarely found.
