[Non-venereal sclerosing lymphangitis of the penis. Report of two clinical cases].

Nonvenereal sclerosing lymphangitis of the penis is a rare condition that preferably affects men aged between 20 and 40 years, and it is appeared like a hard cord or a nodular lesion in the sulcus coronarius penis. It is believed that it has origin in lymph vessels of the penis. Usually it is resolved in a self-limited way, so the initial treatment is conservative. We report two cases, and some etiopathogenic, diagnosis and therapeutic aspects are discussed.

[Cystic ureteritis: importance of chronic infection-inflammation as etiologic factor. Report of a clinical case].

Cystic Ureteritis is a very rare disease. It is more commun in elderly patients. This pathology is characterized by the formation of several submucous cystic in ureter, pelvis and/or bladder. We project the importance of the infectious and inflammatory factors as the disease etiology. We report a case of a woman with recurrent urinary tract infection, coral lithiasis and left ureteritis cystica. It is included a literature review and we explain the main clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects.

[Giant inguinoscrotal bladder hernia].

Inguinoscrotal bladder hernia occur in 0.4 to 3% of general poblation, though massive hernia are much rare. We present a new case of a giant inguinoscrotal bladder hernia, which was solved by surgery. It includes a clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects, and a review of the relative literature.

[A congenital diverticulum of the bulbar urethra].

OBJECTIVE: To describe an additional case of congenital bulbous urethra. The incidence, etiopathogenesis, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of this condition are discussed. METHODS: A 16-year-old male consulted at the emergency services for urinary retention and a perineal lesion. Patient evaluation included ultrasound, retrograde and voiding urethrocystography. Treatment was by open surgery. RESULTS: The patient was evaluated at 3, 6 and 12 months. He remains asymptomatic and control urethrograms are normal. CONCLUSIONS: Open surgery is advocated as the treatment of choice for symptomatic diverticulum of a considerable size.

[Bilaterally synchronous mixed germ cell testicular tumor].

OBJECTIVE: To report an uncommon case of bilateral synchronous mixed testicular germ cell tumor. METHODS: A young male had consulted at our urological services for a unilateral enlarged testis. A testicular tumor was suspected; scrotal US was performed, testicular tumor markers were determined and complementary studies to determine tumor extension were performed. RESULTS: The US findings suggested a chronic inflammatory condition with bilateral diffuse infiltration, tuberculosis was discarded and bilateral testicular tumor was suspected, which was confirmed by bilateral intraoperative biopsy. A bilateral radical orchidectomy was performed. Adjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin, VP-16 and bleomycin was administered after bilateral radical orchidectomy due to the attending risk factors for tumor recurrence. The patient is disease-free one year postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: Bilateral synchronous testicular germ cell tumors are rare. Scrotal US is a simple, noninvasive and efficient diagnostic imaging method; however, it does not provide pathognomonic images that could indicate the histological nature of the tumor.

[Leydig cell tumor].

OBJECTIVE: To describe a case of Leydig cell tumor of the testis, discuss the criteria for determining its benign or malignant nature and the clinical features according to patient age and the hormone profile. METHODS/RESULTS: Scrotal US evaluation for an associated pathology incidentally detected a hypoechoic, homogeneous mass with preserved borders. Biological testicular tumor markers were determined and the suspicion of a Leydig cell tumor prompted a hormone study. The diagnosis of Leydig cell tumor was confirmed by intraoperative biopsy and radical orchidectomy was performed. CONCLUSION: In the case described, the ultrasound findings prompted the etiological diagnosis given the characteristics of the lesion. The definitive diagnosis was based on the pathological findings. Although classified as benign Leydig cell tumor, radical orchidectomy is advocated.
