[Renal hematoma as a result of internal ureteral catheterization].

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: Urinary catheterization by means of an internal ureteral catheter in an usual procedure that may present complications. In this article we presented a case of perforation and later renal subcapsular hematoma after the placement of a "double-J" catheter. CONCLUSIONS: This complication, although rare, should be kept in mind. The manner of avoiding it is to maintain the tightness of the guidewire while inserting the ureteral catheter. Usually, the consequences are not life-threatening and are solved with conservative treatment. The administration of LFRE should be delayed until the resolution of the hematoma.

[Antimicrobial prophylaxis in urology].

UNLABELLED: Antimicrobial prophylaxis in surgery has proven to be effective in controlled randomized trials. Usage in Urology is known at least since the '30s although its effectiveness has only become known since 1979. METHODS: Review of literature related to surgical antibiotic prophylaxis, more specifically urological surgery, basically from 1991 to 1995, but without overlooking those papers that have become classics due to their impact. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Efficacy of antimicrobial prophylaxis in urological surgery is nowadays beyond all doubt. Usage is indicated in the presence of sterile urine and dosage must be short, in single dosis in the immediate pre-operative or within 24 hours after the procedure. However, there is a number of issues that deserve to be treated in more detail for better understanding. Those are the establishment of adequate prophylactic regimes in renal transplantation and the use of antimicrobials based on their pharmacokinetic characteristics to optimize the prophylactic purpose.

[Relationship between a benign fibroepithelial polyp and a pelvic nephroblastoma: report of a case].

The purpose of this paper is to report one case of left pyelic Wilms' tumour in a 17-year old male patient. Pre-operative diagnosis was complicated by a background of prior surgery on the same kidney due to a benign fibroepithelial polyp. The possible concomitences are analyzed while the relevance of an extensive pathoanatomical study to avoid possible diagnostic errors is emphasized.
