[Hormonal changes in fertile women with quiescent systemic lupus erythematosus].

The hypophyseal-adrenal-ovarian axis was studied in 29 women of childbearing age with systemic lupus erythematosus, as well as in a control group of 14 healthy women. Hormonal levels were measured on days 7th and 21st of menstrual cycle. Women with systemic lupus erythematosus had not significatively lower testosterone levels, but progesterone and 17-alfa-hydroxiprogesterone levels were markedly lower when compared to controls. These facts suggest a decrease in progesterone levels, which could act as a predisposing factor for lupic disease.

[Retrotrigonal bladder lymphoma].

Presentation of one case of vesical involvement due to lymphoma in an 82-year old female which presented as a micturition syndrome, abdominal mass and later picture of obstructive uropathy with acute renal function impairment. Diagnosis was achieved by ultrasound and abdominal CAT, cystoscopy with of vesical biopsy, transvaginal mass biopsy and immunohistochemical techniques. The difficulties of a correct differential diagnosis with other vesical neoplasias as well as the need to differentiate primary from systemic vesical lymphoma were discussed, not only because of the separate prognosis but also for the different therapeutical approaches.
