[Lesions of the ureter in obstetric-gynecologic surgery].

The chapter of injuries to the ureter during obstetric-gynaecological surgery continues to be ignored in the literature published over the last decades, in spite of its prevalence in the practice. This has motivated our review and update of this issue. The interest of urological diagnostic procedures prior to surgery and conduit examination at any time during the operation exert some influence on the prevention of this pathology. Preoperative finding and reconstruction lead to better results, which benefit from the use of the urinary route, thus leaving the gut route and self-transplantation for exceptional situations. A new iatrogenic pathology has emerged from the most frequent use of gynaecological endoscopic surgery.

[Air cystometry].

A better study and more correct diagnosis of neurogenous bladder is to be achieved with cystomanometric studies. The authors analyse the use of air as a medium, explain the method and stress the simplicity, quickness and absence of complications with air. Finally, they mention the recent use of carbon dioxide, particularly in urethral profilometries.

[Atypical scrotal leiomyoma. A case report].

A case of intrascrotal atypical leiomyoma is reported. This lesion is extremely rare and usually misdiagnosed. Microscopically, contain bizarre and pleomorphic tumor cells, as well as showed immunohistochemical evidence of smooth muscle differentiation. An important microscopic criterion in the distinction with other entity, as the leiomyosarcoma, is the number of mitotic figures, scarce in the atypical leiomyoma and high in the smooth muscle tumours malignant.
