Penile fracture is a rare injury most commonly sustained duringsexual intercourse. We report the case of a 35-year-old man whopresented with bilateral rupture of the corpora cavernosa andcomplete disruption of the urethra. A review of the literature onpenile fracture is also presented. Urgent surgical exploration wasperformed and the injuries repaired primarily. In follow-up, thepatient reported satisfactory erectile function. This case highlightsthe importance of early surgical repair and evaluation for concomitanturethral injuries in cases of penile fracture.

Urethral Lesion

A 22-year-old man reported cracking sound and acute pain during sexual intercourse followed by rapid penile detumescence and ecchymosis. He experienced more pain because he could not urinate and had a palpably full bladder. Moreover, his urethra was bleeding. Physical examination revealed swollen, ecchymotic and deviated penis and penis ultrasonography showed an injury of the tunica albuginea and Buck’s fascia with an expanding hematoma. Suprapubic catheter was positioned. Surgical exploration revealed a tear of tunica albuginea of both corpora cavernosa and complete urethral dissection. End-to-end urethral anastomosis and suture of corpora cavernosa lesion were performed. Vescical catheter was mantained for 6 days and suprapubic catheter for 3 months to allow a complete urethral healing. A pseudo diverticulum was found atanastomosis level on the urethrocistography 1 month after surgery. It disappeared by allowing micturition via the suprapubic catheter. The patient presented regular urinary flow and physiological erections 30 days later. In our experience, prompt surgical repair preserved erectile function and keeping the suprapubic catheter protected the urethra; this was the correct management for repairing the urethral lesion.

Lateral palatal synechiae are rare congenital adhesions running from the free borders of the cleft palate to the lateral parts of the tongue or the oral cavity floor, typically found in cleft palate lateral synechiae syndrome. We present a case of congenital lateral palatal synechia associated with a cleft palate that we treated and followed up for 10 years. We present the long-term prognosis. We also discuss variations in intraoral synechiae associated with cleft palate and the etiology of lateral palatal synechiae through a literature review.

Uncommon Presentation

Background: Penile fracture is an emergency and uncommon presentation to the urology department. Immediate surgical repair can be a standard of care for patients with penile fracture. Objective: The study was conducted to evaluate the outcome of surgical repair of the fractured penis.Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted from Jan 2017 to Dec 2018 in the urology department of Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Bangladesh. Thirty-five patients with fractures of the penis were included in this study. After proper evaluation, surgery was performed under spinal anesthesia. Follow up was scheduled at 6th week, 3rd month, and 6th month. We used validated questionnaires of the ‘International index of erectile function (IIEF-5)’ for married and ‘Single question self-report (SQSR)’ for unmarried patients to evaluate postoperative erectile function.Results: Total 35 patients completed three follow up. The mean age of patients was 36.4 years, and 88% of them were married. The most common triggers were for vigorous sexual intercourse (68.5%) followed by history of rolling over in bed with erect penis (20.0%). Per-operative findings were: rupture of tunica albuginea (100%); rupture of corpora cavernosa on the right (65.7%). After 6th month, 28 patients (80%) were able to maintain their normal erectile function. However, seven patients developed erectile dysfunction, of which 4 had a mild form, and 3 had mild to moderate form erectile dysfunction. All patients complained of pain during or after intercourse, but the pain has gradually subsided with time.Conclusion: Immediate surgical exploration and repair of fracture penis can offer complete recovery of sexual and voiding functions.

AbstractReports of incidental pneumomediastinum in infants secondary to inflicted trauma are limited. A retrospective review of infants with pneumomediastinum and history of inflicted trauma was performed. A comprehensive literature review was performed. Three infants presented with pneumomediastinum associated with inflicted trauma. Mean age was 4.6 weeks. All patients underwent diagnostic studies, as well as a standardized evaluation for nonaccidental trauma. All patients with pneumomediastinum were resolved at follow-up. Review of the literature identified other cases with similar presentations with related oropharyngeal injuries. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum in previously healthy infants may be associated with inflicted injuries. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of an oropharyngeal perforation related to this presentation.

Aims and Background Intramedullary teratoma is an extremely exceptional tumor (5 cases), although a careful review of international literature has shown it to be more frequent (32 cases) than believed. Methods The authors present a personal case with some unusual aspects. Results Our case is unusual not only because it was diagnosed by MRI (only one case has been reported in the literature) but also because surgical removal of the tumor was apparently total (only 4 other cases have been described), with a long follow-up period (4.5 years) and excellent results, in clinical and neuroradiologic terms.

Abstract Background Small intestine duplication cysts (SIDCs) are rare congenital anatomical abnormalities of the digestive tract and a rare cause of hematochezia. Case presentation We describe an adult female presented with recurrent hematochezia. The routine gastric endoscope and colonic endoscope showed no positive findings. Abdominal CT scan indicated intussusception due to the "doughnut" sign, but the patient had no typical symptoms. Two subsequent capsule endoscopes revealed a protruding lesion with bleeding in the distal ileum. Surgical resection was performed and revealed a case of SIDC measuring 6 * 2 cm located inside the ileum cavity. The patient remained symptom-free throughout a 7-year follow-up period. Conclusion SIDCs located inside the enteric cavity can easily be misdiagnosed as intussusception by routine radiologic examinations.

The ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) is a mixed odontogenic tumor, with characteristics of ameloblastic fibroma, presenting enamel and dentin, which occurs more frequently in individuals aged 5 to 17 years. This paper reports na extensive case of ameloblastic fibro-odontoma in the mandible of a 3-year-old patient, discussed in comparison to cases selected from a brief literature review on the clinical characteristics, Evolution and therapeutic options for this lesion. In the last years, there was no consensus in the literature concerning its etiopathogenesis and classification, yet recently the AFO was classified as a developing odontoma. This case is in accordance with the 7 cases reported in the literature of AFO in the mandible of children aged 10 years or younger, especially concerning the lesion pattern and evolution and treatment adopted. The patient did not present relapse and exhibited local bone regeneration at the 3-year follow-up.

Urethral Rupture

Penile fracture is not uncommon blunt trauma to the penis. Here, we present a rare case of penile fracture during sexual intercourse. The patient presented with penile swelling, bleeding per urethra, and inability to pass urine. Retrograde urethrogram showed significant extravasation of contrast from anterior penile urethra and no contrast passing to proximal urethra. Surgical exploration showed complete urethral rupture and bilateral cavernosal rupture. This case represents the value of urethrogram to evaluate the urethral injury and the association of complete urethral injury with bilateral ventral cavernosal injury.
