[Necrosis of the penis in a diabetic patient: presentation of a case].

Objectives: To present a short review of the diagnosis, clinical features, and treatment of male genitalia necrosis under the format of a case report.

Methods: We review the case of a diabetic patient without good blood sugar control who suffered from various diabetic complications diagnosed and treated at our hospital of a penile necrosis.

[Intra-scrotal lithiasis. Crystallographic analysis].

Objective: To present two cases of intrascrotal lithiasis associated with hydrocele and the results of the crystallographic study.

Methods: Three intrascrotal calculi in two patients aged 72 and 75 years that underwent surgery for hydrocele were analyzed. Two 2-mm.

[Implementation of a clinical pathway for transurethral resection in benign prostatic hyperplasia].

Objective: Clinical pathways constitute a powerful tool for reducing the variability that occurs in clinical practice. The results obtained with the use of a clinical pathway for patients undergoing transurethral resection for benign hyperplasia of the prostate (BPH) are presented.

Methods: A prospective study was carried out on a cohort of 80 consecutive patients that had undergone transurethral resection for BPH after the application of a clinical pathway (5 days hospitalization) and compared with the results of a historical cohort of 80 consecutive patients that had been treated before the application of the clinical pathway.

[Acute scrotum secondary to testicular tumor].

Objective: To report a case of testicular tumor, classified as seminoma, with a very uncommon form of presentation since it presented as acute scrotum.

Methods: The clinical features, treatment and outcome of this uncommon condition are presented.

Results: A review of the literature showed that this form of presentation is rare although in the present case it is impossible to determine if testicular inflammation was due to tumor necrosis or infection from the associated hydrocele.
