Dissatisfaction with the foreskin made it difficult for him to establish intimate contact. After studying the operation on the Internet, he performed self-circumcision.

Foamy cell (hibernoma-like) change is a rare histopathological feature in renal cell carcinoma.

We report nine patients (seven males and two females, median age 64 years (range 51-79 years)) with a renal cell carcinoma, each of which contained a significant component of neoplastic epithelial cells with a striking microvacuolated (hibernoma-like) cytoplasmic appearance. Tumor sizes ranged from 1.5 to 8.

After surgical exploration the patient developed a malignant vesico-intestino-cutaneous fistula with stool leakage through the open wound.

Acute bacterial prostatitis in humans: current microbiological spectrum, sensitivity to antibiotics and clinical findings.

Objective: To assess the current microbiological profile and sensitivity to antibiotics in patients with acute bacterial prostatitis (ABP).

Patients And Methods: In the period 2003-2010, we treated 192 ABP patients, aged from 18 to 85 years (average 56.3 years).

The occurrence of postoperative atrial fibrillation according to different surgical settings in cardiac surgery patients.

Effect of NAT2 gene polymorphism on bladder cancer risk in Slovak population.

N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is phase II enzyme with major roles in catalyzing the detoxification of aromatic amines, which are known risk factors for bladder cancer, and are ubiquitously present in the environment. We assessed the association between common polymorphisms in NAT2 gene and the risk of bladder cancer in 90 Slovak patients and 274 ethnicity-matched healthy controls. Effect modifications by smoking, age and gender were also evaluated.
