[Ureteroscopy with pseudoanalgesia in the treatment of ureteral lithiasis].

Presentation of the results obtained in 35 patients with ureteral lithiasis treated over a two-year interval by means of ureteroscopy with pseudoanalgesia at the Hospital Insular, with a 89% success rate. We conclude that in selected cases, the use of peg ureteroscopy or pneumatic lithotrite is a valid therapeutical option since it is well-tolerated and has the benefit of a short or null hospitalization.

[Urinary bilharziasis. Comments on 10 cases].

Urinary bilharziasis is a parasitic disease caused by Schistosome haematobium which is prevalent in several African and Middle East countries. The closeness of the Canary Islands to the African continent and a greater population mobility have allowed us to diagnose and treat ten patients, all of them natural of this region. This paper outlines the case-reports, and reviews this parasitic disease which seriously affects the urinary tract and which must be specifically contemplated both in emigrants and occasional visitors from endemic regions.

[Renal adenocarcinoma with multicystic pattern].

One growth pattern of renal carcinomas is the multicystic of multilocular cysts one, of which few cases have been published but which according to Hartman represent 15% of total cases. This variant of the renal tumour arouses great diagnostic and therapeutical uncertainties with multicystic kidney, biopsy after surgery being the test which provides true diagnosis. Presentation of two clinical cases and review of this condition.
