Renal malacoplakia.
A case of malacoplakia of the kidney is presented. The incidental finding of asymptomatic pyuria focused attention on the urinary system. Urologic evaluation concluded an avascular renal mass. The diagnosis of malacoplakia was established only after histologic studies of the surgical specimen were completed. Purulent perinephritis complicated the postoperative outcome.

The "turban" nevoid basal cell syndrome. Current management with surgery, chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
"Turban" nevoid basal cell syndrome is a congenital disease that presents with multiple subepidermal epitheliomas, primarily on the scalp. Other secondary findings may be present such as cysts in the mandible and bifid synostotic rib. A combination of treatments proved beneficial in this disease. Surgical excision was used for treatment of large symptomatic lesions such as painful ulcerating and enlarging tumors. Chemotherapy was used to arrest and cause regression of small and dormant lesions. Immunotherapy was used to control the primary disease. Such treatment cured most of the disease and offered a fruitful life to the patient, who is presented to illustrate this multiple disciplinary approach.
