Ureterocele is a well-known pathologic entity in the pediatric urology population but remains a diagnostic and treatment challenge in the adult population. Adult ureteroceles remain a diagnostic challenge for the adult urologist. Its prevalence is estimated between 1/500 and 1/4000 patients with a wide variety of clinical presentations. We present the case of a 30-year-old female patient who presented with severe lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and acute urinary retention secondary to prolapsing bilateral single-system orthotopic ureteroceles. She was successfully treated with transurethral unroofing of her bilateral ureteroceles and she is currently asymptomatic. This case represents the first reported case of bilateral ureteroceles presenting with severe LUTS and subsequent urinary retention from the prolapse of one of the ureteroceles. We provide a review of the most recent case series of adult ureteroceles and their outcomes. Transurethral unroofing of the ureterocele is a safe and minimally invasive approach for this disease.

We describe the phenomenon of the development of lower urinary tract symptoms (storage) following accidents in which there is no direct bladder trauma or pelvic fracture and propose the term “Whiplash bladder”. That bladder symptoms may develop in such circumstances is under appreciated in the urological and medical legal literature.

To see the frequency of prostatic malignancy in patients presenting with clinically benign prostate. Study Design: Descriptive case series. Setting: Department of Urology at Peoples University of Medical and Health Sciences for Women / Hospital Nawabshah. Period: Fifteen Months, From October 2016 to December 2017. Materials and Methods: A total of 100 patients who presented with the clinically benign prostate in Urology OPD were enrolled. All concern data regarding Age, mode of presentation (lower urinary tract symptoms with IPSS score/ Acute retention of urine), comorbid, clinical examination findings, pre voided and post-void residual urine determination (on ultrasonography) were entered. The laboratory investigation includes complete blood count, urea, creatinine, random blood sugar (RBS), urine DR and CS, coagulation profile were performed before TURP.TURP performed under spinal anesthesia. After TURP the prostatic tissue chips were sent for histopathology as a routine. Data was analyzed through SPSS Version 20.0. Results: The average age of males was 71.38± 7.19 yrs. Most of the patients with (IPSS 20-35) BPH have lower urinary tract symptoms (both obstructive and irritative). DRE was done in all patients to estimate the size of the prostrate, it was varying from grade 1 enlarged n= 27(27%), grade 2 enlarged n= 36(36%), to grade 3 enlarged in n=37(37%). There were 3 (3%) cases reported to have prostate cancer, with findings confirmed by biopsy of TURP Specimen. There was no mortality seen in our study. The clinical presentation of patients, grades of enlargements on DRE and IPSS however, demonstrated no correlation. Conclusion: BPH is more common between 60-80yrs. When patient undergo TURP or open prostatectomy, every specimen should be sent for biopsy because prostate cancer is only confirmed by biopsy, so that prostate cancer is detected early Radiology & PSA values are supportive in their role but are not true diagnostic. Prostatic cancer is a significant morbid condition, so effective measures should be taken to detect prostatic cancer, so that patient can be properly treated according to the stage.
