Urethral Valves

Posterior urethral valves (PUV) are now commonly suspected onantenatal ultrasound, but can present with a broad spectrum ofseverity postnatally. Rarely, the diagnosis is missed until adolescenceor adulthood when the patient usually presents with lowerurinary tract symptoms. We describe an even rarer case of PUV inan adolescent who first presented with renal failure and a palpablelower abdominal mass due to urinary retention. We review theliterature on presentation, natural history and outcomes of bothearly and late presenting PUV cases.

Gangrenous Bowel

A 2½-year-old girl had rectal bleeding, an abdominal mass, and diffuse peritonitis. A segment of gangrenous colon was removed. Following surgery she developed the hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS), which is characterized by renal failure, hemolytic anemia, and thrombocytopenia. The intestinal manifestations associated with the HUS are stressed. This case demonstrates that gangrenous bowel can occur in these patients, and that their survival may depend on resectional surgery.

High Index Of Suspicion

We report an unusual presentation of phaeochromocytoma in a young man with a painful, pulsatile abdominal mass and elevated blood pressures. This led to a delay in diagnosis and resulted in the administration of triggers of catecholamine release, possibly causing a catecholamine surge. This caused the development of catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy and multiple organ failure, requiring inotropic and ventilatory support, intra-aortic balloon pump and dialysis. Fortunately, his condition reversed with supportive treatment and alpha-adrenergic blockade. This illustrates the importance of having a high index of suspicion of phaeochromocytoma, especially in young patients with elevated blood pressures.
