[Iatrogenic stenosis of the urethra. Apropos of 67 cases].

Iatrogenic causes of stenosis of urethra appear to be increasing in frequency, 67 cases out of a total of 400 patients seen between 1974 and 1981 being of iatrogenic origin. The principal cause is the use of a urethral catheter, since it was the only etiologic factor in 32 cases and the main factor in the remaining patients. Various therapeutic methods are used, preference being given quite clearly to internal urethrotomy. Prevention is of fundamental importance and is based on the less untimely routine use of urethral catheters, particularly after general surgical operations and in intensive care.

[Total hematuria with normal intravenous urography. Apropos of 36 cases].

The authors present a critical study and retrospective of 36 cases of hematuria without urographic anomalies. Renal angiography was performed in 69% of the patients. 84% of these angiograms were negative. Only 2 identified the cause of the bleeding. 28% of the patients underwent disappointing surgery. In 40% of the cases the appearance of the kidney was normal. Only one of the 6 nephrectomies was justified. The authors recommend the use of modern and non invasive methods of investigation.

Dermoid cyst of testis in five-year-old-child.

We report the case of a five-year-old child who had a hard painless left testis discovered on a routine physical examination. He underwent a left inguinal orchiectomy, and the pathology examination revealed a dermoid cyst of the testis. This is a rare tumor, considering the low incidence of testicular tumors in childhood. Histologic criteria and surgical management are also presented. We believe this report is the first well-documented case.
