Fifty-four cases of anomalies of position in 52 children were reviewed. Of the 52 children 24 (46%) had anomalies involving organs outside the urinary tract and contralateral renal units. Twenty-five ectopic kidneys showed major urological complications (46%). Four were treated conservatively and 21 with surgery. The postoperative results have been excellent in all the cases. Renal anomalies of position often are associated with congenital renal and extrarenal malformations. Nearly 50% of ectopic kidneys are involved by pathological process that often require surgery. Surgical treatment of urological complications of renal ectopia is discussed.

Oligorecurrent prostate cancer (PCa) can be treated with metastasis-directed therapy (MDT), which may be performed using radioguided surgery (RGS) as an experimental approach. These procedures have shown promising outcomes, largely due to the high lesion detection rate of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). We present a case series of patients who underwent RGS following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).
