Ejaculatory dysfunction in adult males with bladder exstrophy-epispadias complex can occur from associated genitourinary anomalies, surgical iatrogenic scarring, infection, obstruction, and neurologic and functional causes. This case presents a 30-year-old male patient with a history of bladder exstrophy reconstruction (bladder neck closure and appendicovesicostomy) who presented with a nine-year history of intermittent perineal scrotal pain, swelling, and intermittent urethral discharge. He presented with a tender palpable perineal mass ("semen-oma").

Purpose: False-positive urine pregnancy screening tests (UPST) have been reported among patients with bowel-containing urinary reconstruction (BCUR). However, the true frequency of such inaccurate results, which have been attributed to urinary mucous or other proteins interfering with or mimicking the binding of beta-HCG in the assay, is unknown in this population. We sought to determine the incidence of false-positive pregnancy screening tests among this patient population at our institution.

Purpose: Our primary aim was to determine the prevalence of positive over-the-counter (OTC) pregnancy tests among pediatric female and male patients who had undergone augmentation enterocystoplasty. A secondary aim was to determine whether patient factors or urinalysis (UA) results were associated with false positive OTC pregnancy test results in patients with a history of augmentation enterocystoplasty.
Methods: Patients at a tertiary pediatric hospital who had previously undergone augmentation enterocystoplasty, Mitrofanoff appendicovesicostomy only, and age- and sex-matched controls were prospectively recruited.
