Symptoms And Signs

Endometriosis is a multifactorial polygenic genetic disorder that affects 10–20% of women. The urinary tract is affected in only 1–5% of cases and here most commonly the urinary bladder. Diagnosis of urinary tract endometriosis is made late due to its commonly asymptomatic course. The management of urinary tract endometriosis depends on the severity of the symptoms and signs, the extent of the disease, its location and the presence of renal damage because of ureteral obstruction. A conservative medical treatment is recommended for small areas of endometriosis in the bladder. For urinary tract endometriosis covering a large area, or where infiltration causes architectural damage, surgery is recommended. Partial cystectomy should be considered because of the transmural nature of bladder endometriosis. In cases of ureteral endometriosis, the surgical technique is determined by the location and extent of the lesion. For the distal ureter an ureterocystoneostomy using the Psoas hitch or Boari flap is recommended. For short, proximal ureteral involvement an end-to-end anastomosis or endoscopic incision may be used, and for extended areas, ileum interposition or kidney mobilization using nephropexy. A multidisciplinary approach is strongly recommended. Endometriosis with urological involvement more often needs surgical treatment, especially when ureteral obstruction leads to progressive kidney damage.

Polypoid Tumor

The authors report a rare case of primary pleomorphic carcinoma of the gallbladder in a 70-year-old woman. A polypoid tumor protruded into the lumen from the fundus of the gallbladder. Characteristic histologic findings Included a general lack of architectural cohesiveness, marked pleomorphism, presence of mononucleated and multinucleated giant cells, extensive necrosis, leukocyte-tumor cell phagocytosis or cannibalism. Immunoreactivity for cytokeratin, carclnoembryonic antigen and epithelial membrane antigen as well as histochemical positivity for mucins demonstrated the epithelial nature of the tumor. The neoplasm behaved aggressively; the patient died of metastases 9 months after the operation.

Vulvar Mass

Ureterocele is a cystic dilatation of submucosal distal ureter. It presents a higher incidence in infants and young children but is rare in adults. The urethral prolapse of ureterocele is extremely rare, and its clinical presentation includes vulvar mass, hematuria, and urinary tract dysfunction. We present a case of ureterocele prolapse in a 45-year-old woman who has a 3-day-evolution vulvar mass and intense urethral bleeding. The patient underwent armed cystoscopy and ureteroscopy, ureterocele resection, and biopsy. She evolved with good postoperative condition and was then discharged.

Patients diagnosed with multiple myeloma are more susceptible to infections which are the major causes of morbidity and mortality associated to this disease. The main infectious agents involved are Gram-positive bacteria. However, after chemotherapy an increase in the incidence of Gram-negative strains is observed. These bacteria are also responsible for most cases of urinary tract infections. Here is reported a rare case in a 73-year-old man with multiple myeloma who developed endocarditis due to pseudomonas.

Abstract Background We experienced a rare case of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm arising from Santorini’s duct (SD) forming a tumor protruding into the duodenum . Case presentation A 71-year-old woman was incidentally diagnosed with a 3 cm type Isp polypoid tumor in the second portion of the duodenum at another hospital. Enhanced CT and endoscopic ultrasound revealed that the origin of this protruding tumor was arising from SD and that the tumor mimicked a pedunculated duodenal tumor. Our preoperative diagnosis was a malignant pancreatic tumor arising from SD with invasion into the duodenum. She underwent a subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy, and the resected specimen showed a 25 mm tumor protruding into the duodenum with a villous surface. The pathological findings revealed that the tumor was intraductal papillary mucinous adenoma (IPMA) arising from SD. Conclusions To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of IPMA protruding into the duodenal lumen from SD, although most of the tumors arising from SD have been reported to be malignant.
