Melanoma metastasis to the bladder: A case report of an underdiagnosed entity.

Introduction: Melanoma is an aggressive form of skin cancer known for its significant risk of metastasis. Metastasis to the urinary bladder is rare.

Case Presentation: We report a case of a 75-year-old woman with melanoma metastasis to the bladder treated with transurethral resection of the bladder tumor, confirmed by immunohistochemistry.

An unusual etiology of testicular avulsion: A case report.

Introduction: Dog bites are a common presentation in emergency departments. However, scrotal injuries with complete testicular avulsion are exceedingly rare.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a dog bite to the scrotum with complete detachment of the testis and right hemiscrotum in an intoxicated 48-year-old man, who was treated with wound irrigation, debridement, antibiotic prophylaxis, tetanus and rabies vaccination, and a covering scrotoplasty.

Ectopic pituitary adenoma with empty sella: A case report.

Ectopic pituitary adenoma is a condition characterized by the presence of an adenoma originating from extra-sellar pituitary cell residue from the migration of Rathke's pouch. First described in 1909, ectopic pituitary adenoma is a very rare, largely unknown condition with a challenging diagnosis, that requires proving the absence of communication between the extra-sellar mass and the normal pituitary gland (or any of the intra-sellar contents). Here, we describe the case of a 38-year-old female who presented with symptomatic hyperprolactinemia in whom magnetic resonance imaging revealed a space-occupying mass in the sphenoid sinus with an empty sella turcica.

Depression and Breast Cancer in Morocco: Prevalence and Associated Factors.

Background: Depression is frequently associated with breast cancer. However, its prevalence and impact on patients' quality of life are negligible. Depression is often underdiagnosed and less treated.

Double-J placement complicated by endogenous endophthalmitis: A rare and serious outcome.

Endogenous endophthalmitis (EE) is a rare intraocular infection resulting from hematogenous microorganism spread, typically associated with underlying risk factors. We present a 52-year-old female with poorly-controlled diabetes and urolithiasis who developed EE following double-J stent placement for obstructive pyelonephritis. EE may occur due to increased intrarenal pressure during urological procedures.

Primary diffuse large B-Cell lymphoma of the female urethra: A case report.

Introduction: Primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of the female urethra is a highly uncommon malignancy.

Case Report: A 78-year-old woman presents with urethrorrhagia and dysuria. Clinical examination revealed a protruding mass at the urethral meatus, accompanied by bilateral inguinal adenopathies.

Blepharoptosis revealing a metastatic renal cell carcinoma: A rare case report.

Introduction: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a relatively rare malignancy often discovered incidentally. Approximately 15 % of cases are metastatic at diagnosis, commonly affecting the lungs, bones, lymph nodes, and liver. We present an exceptional case of RCC metastasizing to the eyelid.

Priapism associated with penile haematoma following a scorpion sting in a child: A rare case report.

Priapism is a rare condition in paediatrics. Although its association with scorpion envenomation has been documented, cases involving an associated penile haematoma are extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, we hereby present the first documented case of this unique association in a nine-year-old boy following a scorpion sting.

Role of preoperative neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio in prediction of recurrence, progression, and BCG failure in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer: a retrospective study.

Introduction: neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), as a biomarker of the systemic inflammatory response, has been studied for diverse tumors. Our study aims to determine whether the NLR can be reliably used as a tool to predict disease course in patients diagnosed with primary non-muscle invasive bladder tumors (NMIBC).

Methods: a retrospective study between 2009 to 2014 was conducted on 300 patients newly diagnosed with NMIBC at our institution.

Pre-excited atrial fibrillation revealed at a very delayed age: case report.

Background: Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a condition characterized by the persistence of an accessory pathway responsible for ventricular pre-excitation that can lead to symptomatic and potentially severe arrhythmias. Coexistence with atrial fibrillation is well known and not uncommon, exposing to potential degenerescence into ventricular fibrillation when atrial impulses are transmitted along the accessory pathway. WPW syndrome is most prevalent in younger patients and cases revealed after an advanced age have rarely been described in the literature.

Schwannoma of the radial nerve: a case report.

Schwannomas are the most common benign tumors of the peripheral nerves, but represents only 5%-8% of all soft tissue tumors. Their diagnosis is usually delayed due to their slow growth and the nervous adaptation to their increased volume. Ultrasound sonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images usually ease the diagnosis.

How Does the Immune System Enter the Brain?

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is considered the most frequent inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS). It occurs with a variable prevalence across the world. A rich armamentarium of disease modifying therapies selectively targeting specific actions of the immune system is available for the treatment of MS.

Medullary Aplasia Revealing a Metastatic Prostatic Adenocarcinoma.

In this case report, we are reporting the case of a 68-year-old male patient who was admitted in our hospital for unintended weight loss, asthenia, and anorexia. Physical examination showed clinical signs of anemia such as pallor of skin and mucous membranes; hemodynamic parameters were normal. Complete blood count (CBC) analysis showed a pancytopenia with anemia, thrombocytopenia, and leukopenia.
