[Ureteral valves. Apropos of a case].

We report one case of congenital ureteral valves treated successfully by excision of the involved segment and uretero-ureterostomy. We review the literature regarding ureteral valves and discuss the mechanism of their formation.

[Renal lithiasis and urothelial tumor].

We report the cases of 4 patients with renal pelvis tumor associated with renal calculi. Sonography was correlated with gross pathology in three cases. The pre operative diagnostic can be made by sonography. The carcinogenic role of the lithiasis and infection is quite possible.

[Percutaneous drainage in the treatment of kidney abscess. Apropos of 2 cases].

Percutaneous drainage has rapidly become the initial procedure of choice in the treatment of most intra-abdominal and retro-peritoneal abscess. The retro-peritoneal location of the urinary tract facilitates a percutaneous approach and has been found to be highly effective. We report 2 cases of successful non operative managements of renal abscess by percutaneous aspirations and systemic antibiotic therapy.

[Hypertension secondary to a "renin tumor". One case (author's transl)].

Eleven cases of hypertension secondary to a renal tumour secreting renin have been described in the literature between 1967 and 1978. The authors here report another case which presented with severe hypertension and a cerebrovascular accident in a 30-year-old woman. Intravenous urography and renal arteriography revealed a tumour of the upper pole of the left kidney. Estimation of renin levels in the renal veins demonstrated hypersecretion on the side of the tumour. Tumourectomy was followed by normalisation of blood pressure levels. Histological examination confirmed a diagnosis of a tumour of the juxtaglomerular apparatus.
