[Submucous urethral angioma].

OBJECTIVES: Urethral hemangioma is a rare benign vascular tumor. The clinical features of this tumor type and the therapeutic options are discussed. METHODS/RESULTS: We report on a 55-year-old male with urethral hemangioma who consulted for urethral hemorrhage. CONCLUSIONS: To our knowledge, approximately 40 cases of this rare tumor type have been reported in the literature. Urethroscopy is the best diagnostic procedure. Treatment depends on tumor site, size and number. Transurethral resection of the tumor, urethrectomy, arterial embolization, radiotherapy or ablation with Nd:YAG laser can be utilized.

[Vesico-umbilical fistula. Occurrence in an adult].

Vesicoumbilical fistula in the adult male basically results from repermeability of the urachus obliterated by an uncompensated vesicoprostatic obstruction. The passage of urine through the umbilicus is practically pathognomonic and the definitive diagnosis is made by IVP and cystourethrography. It is a relatively benign pathology with a good prognosis following surgical treatment. Herein we report a case of vesicoumbilical fistula in an adult male with a previous history of prostatic syndrome and chronic urinary retention, resulting in repermeability of the urachus.

[Bladder endometriosis simulating a bladder tumor].

Endometriosis is relatively frequent in females of menstrual age and consists in the appearance of active endometrial tissue at sites other than the uterine cavity (genital system or adjacent organs). Endometrial tissue has been described to colonize the urinary system, particularly the urinary bladder. The most common clinical features of vesical endometriosis are urgency and frequency, hypogastric pain and hematuria. We report on a case of vesical endometriosis whose presenting features were urgency and urinary incontinence. The urological work up disclosed a solid vesical mass. Cystoscopy was highly suggestive of endometrial submucosa formation which was confirmed by TUR.
