February 2012
Divisione Universitaria di Urologia 2, AOU San Giovanni Battista Molinette, Torino, Italy.
Background: According to the last EAU Guidelines about testicular cancer, surgical resection of residual masses after chemotherapy in NSGCT is indicated in the case of visible residual masses and when serum levels of tumor markers are normal or normalizing. If markers are not normalized and when several chemotherapeutic regimens have failed to cure metastatic disease, resection of residual tumors (so called "desperation surgery") should be offered to these patients.
Methods: We are going to present the case of a 30-year-old patient, affected by metastatic NSGCT.
Diagnosis of Whipple's disease using molecular biology techniques.
Rev Esp Enferm Dig
April 2011
Department of Digestive Diseases, Hospital Donostia, San Sebastián, Guipuzcoa, Spain.
The diagnosis of Whipple's disease (WD) is based on the existence of clinical signs and symptoms compatible with the disease and in the presence of PAS-positive diastase-resistant granules in the macrophages of the small intestine. If there is suspicion of the disease but no histological findings or only isolated extraintestinal manifestations, species-specific PCR using different sequences of the T. whippleii genome from different tissue types and biological fluids is recommended.

Observation: A 28 year-old man presenting with familial Von Recklinghausen's disease, had suffered for 10 years from paroxysmic abdominal pain.
