"Hair in the Bladder": An Unusual Finding.

Trichobezoar is a rare condition whereby a hairball is found in the human stomach or gastrointestinal tract, most frequently in young women, mainly in association with a psychiatric disorder. Trichobezoar cases have also been reported in the bladder and represent a rare complication of foreign bodies, called "hair nidus or hair ball," in patients with chronic catheter. Approximately 10% to 15% of patients on long-term urethral catheter or clean intermittent self-catheterization develop urinary tract stones.

Laparoendoscopic single-site unclamped nephron-sparing surgery: a case report.

A 43-yr-old man with left lumbar pain was diagnosed as having a growing renal angiomyolipoma at imaging. TriPort laparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) without ischemia was performed. The TriPort was inserted through a 4-cm pararectal incision, and with the use of 5-mm instruments, left-unclamped NSS was performed and completed in 165 min (blood loss: 180 ml).
