[Cervico-prostatic incision in the treatment of benign prostatic hypertrophy. Apropos of 40 cases].

The authors report on the results of 40 cases of cervico-prostatic incision for benign prostatic hypertrophy. Evaluation of the prostatic gland was based only on rectal examination. Operative technique is simple. We have treated patients with prostatic hypertropy less than 30 g. Young men with prostatic hypertrophy greater than 30 g have been treated by this technique, to preserve antegrade ejaculation. Success rate was 90% at 6 months and 85% at 18 months. Retrograde ejaculation was observed in 21% of the patients following treatment.

[Pelvic kidney. Apropos of 50 cases].

The pelvic ectopic kidney is a relatively rare congenital anomaly. It is situated below the horizontal level of the iliac crest. Fifty cases, collected over twelve years, are reported here: 47 unilateral PEK, 2 bilateral PEK, 1 solitary PEK. The main clinical patterns are outlined. The healthy ectopic kidney (18 cases): clinical complaints are derived from adjacent organs. The diseased ectopic kidney (32 cases). Urinary symptoms reveal the anomaly. Renal stones (21 cases) and uretero-pelvic junction disease (7 cases) are the most frequent lesions encountered. The diagnosis is based on IVP data. Ultrasonography and computed tomography are of great help: they avoid useless and expensive complementary investigations when clinical symptoms are misleading. Ectopic kidney should be treated as if it were in its normal position. However, surgical procedures that may be performed might be particularly difficult because of different anatomical environment and non-systematized blood supply.

[Iatrogenic urethral stenosis. Apropos of 100 cases].

Iatrogenic causes of stenosis of urethra appear to be increasing in frequency. 100 cases out of a total of 582 patients being of iatrogenic origin. The principal cause is the use of a urethral catheter. Various therapeutic methods are used, preference being given quite clearly to internal urethrotomy. Prevention is of fundamental importance and is based on the less untimely routine use of urethral catheters, particularly after general surgical operations and in intensive care.
