[Acute epididymitis in a 3-month-old infant: an infrequent presentation].

The acute Epididymitis is a very uncommon disease in children under 3 years old. We present the clinic case in a suckling child of 3 months old with onset of an acute scrotum, being necessary the surgical exploration to define the exact diagnosis of acute Epididymitis. We make a revision on world medical references and found out a very low incidence in children under 1 year old (0.7-3%); so it is considered of interest to publish it with the double finality to be taken into account in the presence of an acute scrotum and to contribute with a new case of this unusual pathology in babies under 1 year old.

[Primary malignant melanoma of the penis. Considerations apropos of a case].

The authors present a case of primitive malignant melanoma of the penis. At the same time they make a review of the world bibliography on this illness, in which they find only 50 cases published. They make a series of comments on the peculiar evolution of the case presented, in comparison to those described. They feel that the most important factor of the case presented is its rarity and the diagnostic difficulties involved.
