[Our experience with the implant of single component integrated prostheses (Hydroflex-Dynaflex)].

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: To present our experience with Hydroflex and Dynaflex self-contained inflatable penile prosthesis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Between october 1988 and december 2000 a total of 63 men underwent implantation of 8 Hydroflex and 55 Dynaflex penile prosthesis. The follow-up period ranged from 12 and 127 months (mean 54.5). RESULTS: A total of 124 cylinders were implanted (in 2 cases only 1 cylinder was implanted). During implantation 3 corpora cavernosun ruptures were present, but implantation was possible in 2. Specific complication rates after implantation were as follow: early infection, 3 patients (4.7%); late infection, 1 patient (1.6%); pain that needed readmission 2 cases (3.2%); mechanical device failure, 7 cylinders in 6 men (mean time 83.5 months). 7 men (11.1%) needed prolonged teaching time to operate the prosthesis. Only 6 men (9.5%) wer dissatisfied with the prosthesis. It was possible to change only 1 cylinder when needed. CONCLUSIONS: Self-contained inflatable prosthesis brings good results on long time use. The mechanical malfunction rate is low and it is possible to change only one cylinder if needed. An important number of patients need intensive and prolonged teaching time to obtain a successful result.

[Treatment with the Newbit technique in patients with Peyronie's disease].

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the results of Nesbit's technique in patients with Peyronie's disease. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Between 1990 and 2002, 45 patients were treated using the Nesbit's procedure to correct Peyronie's disease curvature. Mean age was 57.6 (range 41-73). Dorso lateral incurvation was the most common. RESULTS: Total correction of the curvature in 40 patients (88%). High grade of satisfaction in 39 patients (86.66%). CONCLUSION: Nesbit's operation is an easy and effective surgical technique in the peyronie's disease for curvature correction.

[Incomplete urethral duplication].

Urethral duplicity is a rare congenital malformation. We report a case of one 25 years old male suffering recurrent urinary infections. The diagnostic of uncompleted urethral duplicity was performed by retrograde urethrography and micturating cystourethrogram. The accessory channel was excised by a perineal approach. Clinical results were satisfactory, remaining an asintomatic patient two years after surgery, with normal mictional behavior.

[Cyst of the prostatic utricle].

Presentation of a case of prostatic utriculus cyst which due to its size and the patient's history suggested a differential diagnosis with a urethral or vesical diverticulum. Awareness of frequent association to urethral malformations and azoospermia would be very useful when choosing a treatment strategy in such cases.

[Renal hydatid cyst].

We present a case of urinary way fistulized renal hydatid cyst, which displayed itself clinically by repeated nephritic colics caused by the expulsion of calcified daughter vesicles. We make special mention of the diagnostic process and the surgical technique used, which included cystopericystectomy and anterograde ureteroscopy for the extraction of the calcified daughter vesicles at ureteral level.

[Incrusted cystitis].

Five cases are presented of incrusted, alkaline cystitis and the authors point out the pathogenic aspects and the etiology of this illness and comment upon the two forms of endoscopic presentation and the treatment of the general and local kinds.
