[Clinicopathological study of incidental cancer prostate in patients undergoing surgery for symptomatic diagnosis of BPH].

UNLABELLED: OBJECTIVES-INTRODUCTION: Retrospective study of a series of patients with prostate surgery (suprapubic prostate adenomectomy -APS-, and prostate transurethral resection -RTU-P-) for presumed BPH symptomatic non-respondent to the conservative medical treatment. Analysis of prevalence, incidence, clinical-pathological, treatment, tumor progression and evolution of the patients with incidental prostate cancer (CPI) detected. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 1593 patients with prostate surgery (APS and RTU-P) during 6 years (1996-2001) were revised. APS 35%, RTU-P 65%. Revision of all pathological anatomy of surgical specimens and the evolutions of the patients with CPI. RESULTS: 78 CPI; Prevalence 4,89%; Incidence 13 cases/year. Mean age 73.6 years. Digital rectal examination was normal in 100%, mean PSA 6 ng/ml (0.5-30). Group APS: 25 CPI (32%); prevalence 4.55%; incidence 4 cases/year; mean PSA 7.7 ng/ml (2.8-30); mean weight resection 65 gs. Group RTU-P: 53 CPI (68%); prevalence 5,07%; incidence 9 cases/year; mean PSA 5.2 ng/ml (0,5-29); mean weight resection 20 gs. 22% biopsy previously by high PSA, mean PSA 14 ng/ml (4,8-30). Gleason average 5 (mean 4.8), rank 3-8. pTla 66%, pTlb 33%. TREATMENT: 57% follow-up watched without treatment (wait and see); 18% hormonal treatment; 3% finasteride; 9% Radical Prostatectomy; 9% radiotherapy. Follow Lost 4%. Mean follow-up 47.19 months (12-96). Tumor progression 13.3% (10 patients). Specific CPI mortality 2.6% (2 patients). CONCLUSIONS: We didn't observe significant differences between the prevalence of CPI in both groups (APS and RTU-P). The detected tumours were mainly well differentiated and in stage pTla. In more than half of the cases an expectant attitude without treatment was decided. 13,3% of tumor progression after 47.19 months of follow mean and specific CPI mortality 2.6%.

[Renal angiomyolipomatosis and pulmonary lymphangiomyomatosis. Its relationship with Bourneville syndrome].

INTRODUCTION: Renal angiomyolipomas are not very frequent in urologic activities. Pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis is a rare disease that occurs mainly in women of reproductive age. Tuberous sclerosis shows lesions to different organs, including these both entities. MATERIAL AND METHOD: We retrospectively analyze patients treated in our center. Three most representatives cases are reported. An indexed literature review is done, in order to establish a clinical protocol to manage these kinds of patients. RESULTS: [corrected] Between 1990 and 2004, eight patients have been attended with an angiomyolipoma renal diagnostic. Five women (62%) and three men (38%). Medium age is 52,3y (29-69). In 3 of them (all women), it was also done a diagnostic of pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis. CONCLUSIONS: Bourneville syndrome is not very frequent. Associated angiomyolipomas usually are multiple, bilateral, with tender to grow and require more interventions. Previous diagnostic let us prevent future complications with vigilance, selective arterial embolization and nephron-spare surgery. Tumour size and the presence of symptoms are more decisive to decide best therapy alternative. Young patients with pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis should be advise against pregnancy and the use of preparations containing estrogens.

[External beam radiotherapy on locally advanced prostate carcinoma following iliac staging lymphadenectomy].

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Locally advanced prostate cancer supposes a high risk condition of post-treatment progression due to the limit situation that represents. Our purpose was to analyze prognoses factors in function of progression probability after using a treatment with external source radiotherapy on patients with this kind of tumors. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed a set of 128 patients submitted to pelvic staging limphadenectomy prior to accomplish an external radiotherapeutic treatment. We employed the Kaplan-Meier curves to study the probability of progression, logarithmic ranks test were used for detection of possible statistically significant differences and proportional risks Cox model was employed to study possible risk factors of progression (employing astro criteria). RESULTS: 5 years freedom probability from progression was of 49,93%; in spite of appreciating important differences in the groups stratified by the predictive variables used (total PSA, gleason of pathological biopsy, clinical stage and % of cores affection on biopsy), none of them reached statistical meaning, being the level of total PSA the closest to it. CONCLUSIONS: The external radiotherapeuthic treatment represents a valid alternative in the treatment of locally advanced prostate cancer, with a tolerable index of secondaries. It must be used combined with hormonotherapy. It seems that the use of higher radiation doses, in a safer way thanks to 3D conformed radiotherapy, allows to improve the results. The most powerful clinical predictor of evolution must be the total PSA.

[Role of nephrectomy in metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Experience of the Department of Urology Juan Canalejo Hospital].

OBJECTIVES: We expose our experience in nephrectomy in metastatic renal cell carcinoma, and also show complications, evolution and survival of these patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We performe a retrospective review of renal cell carcinoma treated at our service in the period between January 1st 1991 and December 31st 2002. We only studied those which presented in a metastatic pattern (31), and divide these in two groups: the ones which were nephrectomized and those which were not. We try to showw the differences between the two groups in order of status performance (E.C.O.G.), associated morbidity and median survival. In the first group we also study complications of surgery and treatment that patients underwent. RESULTS: we performed nephrectomy in 19 cases, all of them E.C.O.G. 0-1. Median postoperative stay was 12 days, and complication rate was 11.5%. Of these patients, 45% underwent some type of systemic treatment, and median survival was 31 months. We didn't performed nephrectomy in 12 patients, of which 9 were E.C.O.G. 2-3. Associated co-morbidity was higher in this group. Only in three patients any treatment was offered always with palliative reason. Median survival was 3.8 months. CONCLUSIONS: In those patients with good performance status this approach does not represent more morbility nor mortality than in non-metastatic patients, and that is a cornerstone in their management. We also make a literature review in which we see the last pathways in the management of these patients, and that show the needing for a combined approach both quirurgical and inmunotherapical. We have review with special interest the studie's conclusions of SWOG and EORTC groups.

[High flow arterial priapism secondary to post-traumatic bilateral arterio-cavernous fistula. Highly selective embolization with autologous blood clot].

High flow arterial priapism is rare and characterized to a prolonged non-painful partial erection. Arteriocavernous fistula, rarely bilateral, is associated with penile or perineal trauma (genitoperineal area). Review of the literature, in only eleven cases this fistula is bilateral. Different treatments with non common norm has been used. We report a case of a 27 years old male who presented high flow priapism secondary to bilateral postraumatic arterio-cavernous fistula. Autologous blood clot was used for fistulas embolization to minimize the risk of impotence in this young patient. No complications was registered. Eight months later the patient had normal erectile function and no fistula was detected on ultrasonography doppler. We consider arteriography with highly selective embolization using re-absorbable agents obtains the best results, the least risks and complications in this process.

[Traumatic urethral disruption in women. A rare entity. Report of two cases].

We present two cases of urethral disruption in women, a very uncommon situation because of the anatomical features. Yet it must be always suspected in all women under a pelvic politraumatism, for eviting important problems. Both cases are traffic politraumatized young girls presenting with pelvic fracture, among others. The surgery performed was combined suprapubic-transvaginal approach, even in one a previous endoscopic realinement was done, who also needed endoscopic complementary treatment: electrofulguration of a fistulous bridge. Outcome of both is fine, achieving good continence. We also make a literature review.

[Double-barreled wet colostomy: analysis of a urinary diversion].

We analyse our experience in performing the wet colostomy, also called urocolostomy and present seven cases treated at our hospital in which this was used. We present: a) three women, one underwent an urocolostomy as a result of a myelomeningocele with urinary and fecal incontinence, another because of a pelvic malignancy, and the third after developing a post radiotherapy cysto-proctitis; b) four men, one underwent this surgical procedure as a result of a traumatic paraplegia with multiple urinary fistulae and neurogenic bladder, the other three were secondary to pelvic malignancies (two bladder and one sigmoid malignacies). The outcome was fine in all cases with no pyelonephritis or metabolic imbalances; in all cases it represented a good option for these patients.

[Emphysematous pyelonephritis: report of a case and review of the literature].

Emphysematous pyelonephritis is a necrotizing renal parenquima infection, which is diabetes mellitus related in almost all cases. This is life threatening and has a high mortality rates despite aggressive management. The most important thing in management is a high diagnostic suspicious and also a rapid treatment, which means nephrectomy. We expose a case giving especial importance to clinical and image diagnose as treatment and evolution. We also make a literature review trying to understand this entity and find pathways for its therapeutic management.

[Metastasis of prostatic carcinoma to the urethra: report of a case].

Penile metastases from prostate carcinoma are uncommon events, much more in urethra and corpus spongiosum, we add a case to the preexisting literature. A patient with hormone resistant prostate cancer consults for haematuria and voiding difficulties. During TURP we observe tumors at the penile urethra which are resected and result to be prostate cancer metastases. Patient is fine and without voiding disturbance after 7 months of following. We think is an interesant case because there is few reports in literature.

[Metabolic risk factors in calcium urolithiasis according to gender and age of the patients].

INTRODUCTION: Little information is available on the metabolic changes found in relation to gender and aging in patients with urolithiasis. In this study a comparison has been made of the metabolic profiles in men and women, in different groups of aging, with calcium-containing urinary stones in order to identify possibly significant differences. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In the past five years, a total of 500 patients with calcium-containing urinary stones, 226 male (45.2%) and 274 female (54.8%), have undergone comprehensive metabolic evaluation. The mean age was 47.4 years, with a range of 20 to 75 years. The patients was included in 3 groups: 151 patients aged 20-39 years, 255 patients aged 40-59 years and 94 patients aged 60-75 years. A comparison has been made of the frequency of metabolic changes, the urinary biochemical parameters and the supersaturation index (AP(CaOx)) between a group of men and a group of women and the different groups of aging. All patients carried out in an identical manner to metabolic diagnosis. The patients with morphologic and functional abnormalities were excluded. RESULTS: Hyperoxaluria, hyperuricosuria and hypocitraturia were more common in men than in women, whilst in women, hypercalciuria and a low urinary volume were more frequent with respect to men, though the differences in hypercalciuria were not statistically significant. Men excrete higher levels of calcium, phosphate, oxalate, uric acid and magnesium than women. On the other hand, women excrete higher levels of citrate than men. The AP(CaOx) index is significantly higher in men than in women. Hypercalciuria were more common in patients aged < 60 years, and low urinary volume were more frequent in patients aged < 40 years. Patients aged < 60 years excrete higher levels of calcium, phosphate and uric acid. The AP(CaOx) index is significantly higher in patients aged < 60 years. CONCLUSIONS: Differences were observed between the metabolic profiles of men and women, and in different groups of aging. Men and younger patients afford a metabolic profile of upper lithogenic risk compared with women and older patients; this is consistent with the upper reported prevalence of lithiasis and the upper tendency to recurrence in men and middle-age patients.

[Penile adenoma: clinical case].

Penile melanoma is a very uncommon neoplasm, being reported less than 60 cases. Event yet it outlines not few doubts about its diagnosis and treatment, and in advanced stages represents a challenge for the future since it prognosis is awful at short time. In the present article, its presented a glans melanoma diagnosed and treated at our Service. We make a brief revision of the literature and some basic issues on the management of this entity when it's localized in penis, since in the cases in which it extends far from this organ is yet oncological field.

[Multiple urinary lithiasis and nephrocalcinosis secondary to primary Sjögren syndrome].

A 39 year old women with a primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS) had bilateral and multiple nephrolithiasis and nephrocalcinosis due to distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA), hypercalciuria and hypocitraturia. She had in serum positive antinuclear antibodies with mottled pattern 1/320, totals ENA, Anti-SSA/Ro 52, Anti-SSA/Ro 60 and Anti-SSB-La antibodies. Stones were removed with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy satisfactory and were composed of calcium phosphate and calcium oxalate. Metabolic abnormalities were resolved with potassium citrate and hydrochlorothiazide. At two years of follow-up, the patient hadn't stone recurrence and had normal 24-hour urinary levels of citrate and calcium.

[Typical renal metanephric adenoma. Conservative surgery].

Metanephric Adenoma is uncommon renal tumor included in the complex group of the embryologics or nefroblastics renal tumors. Generally occurs in young females and usually has excellent prognosis. It's important to differentiate of malignant variants, particularly renal cell papillary carcinoma, metanephric adenosarcoma and adult Wilms tumor. The suspicion and intraoperative analysis of the tumor can to facilitate the use of conservative renal surgery in order to avoid unnecessary radical and aggressive surgery. To exist cases of metastatic metanephric adenoma, and the totally benign characteristic of the metanephric adenoma and the malignant potential isn't totally clarify.

[Surgical management of renal cell carcinoma with vena cava-right atrium thrombus].

Historically the presence of a thrombus in vena cava was associated with worse prognosis in patients with renal cell carcinoma, and the effective of surgery limited. However a extensive tumor thrombi can be present without evidence of lymph node and distant metastasis, an aggressive surgical approach with curative intent is justified. We retrospectively reviewed 25 patients with renal cell carcinoma and thrombus in vena cava and they underwent radical nephrectomy and thrombectomy. The IRM allowed to know the level of the thrombus into vena cava in all patients: 56% level I, 8% level II, 26% level III. There were 14 pT3b, 8 pT3c, 3 pT4, and 48% N+. The rate of complications was 36% and there were 4 perioperative death (16%). Patients without lymph node and no distant metastasis had a mean survival of 64% 46%, 37% to 2, 3, 4 years respectively. Patients with lymph node invasive an distant metastasis the prognosis was poor. We no noted correlation between level thrombus and prognosis.
