[Surgery of abdominal aortic aneurysm in horseshoe kidney. Report of a case and review of the literature].

OBJECTIVE: A case of coexistent abdominal aortic aneurysm and horseshoe kidney is presented. The diagnostic difficulties and the different treatments are discussed. METHODS/RESULTS: A 55-year-old male patient with aneurysm of the abdominal aorta associated with a horseshoe kidney is described and the literature is reviewed. The diagnosis was made by CT and arteriography. Treatment was by the transperitoneal approach, division of the renal isthmus and placement of an aortoiliac dacron graft. CONCLUSION: Horseshoe kidney associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm requiring surgical management is uncommon, but when it occurs, aortic repair is significantly more difficult.

Percutaneous endoscopic urethrocervicopexy.

A minimally invasive surgical technique is proposed which considerably simplifies the Stamey technique, shortens the surgical time and fives a weighted success rate of over 80%, which makes it worthy of consideration in treating female urinary incontinence.

[Percutaneous endoscopic urethrocervicopexy].

A minimally invasive surgical technique that remarkably simplifies the Stamey procedure is described herein. The technique shortens the operating time and achieves a success rate of over 80%. Thus, we believe this technique should be considered in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in females.

[Rectal hemorrhage as a first sign of renal cell adenocarcinoma].

Renal cell carcinoma accounts for 85% of all renal primary tumours, the remaining 15% tumours originating either in the renal pelvis or the renal capsule. Clinical signs and symptoms of renal adenocarcinoma can be classified in four groups: specifically urological signs and symptoms, unspecific general symptoms, paraneoplastic syndromes, and metastasis-derived symptoms. The classical triad consists of haematuria, pain and palpable abdominal mass; at present this triad appears in a minority of cases, and is usually a late finding. The number of cases diagnosed from unspecific signs and symptoms is increasingly larger. Routine use of ultrasound and CAT allows a higher number of diagnosis, which frequently occur in the less advanced stages. The present paper presents a case report of renal cell adenocarcinoma, diagnosed from an infrequent early symptom such as rectal bleeding.
