A case of spontaneous perirenal hematoma from a ruptured angiomyolipoma is described. Diagnosis was made at the time of presentation and treatment was by conservative surgery. The different diagnostic methods and treatment of this condition are discussed.
Malignant tumours of the urachus are very rare and they give certain difficulty in their differential diagnosis with vesical cupula adenocarcinoma. We present a case of mucinous adenocarcinoma of the urachus in a 75-year-old patient and we analyse the behaviour, clinical background, diagnosis and treatment of these tumours.
A review is made of the urocultures and antibiograms carried out in a period of two months in the Urology Department of a General Hospital. A comparative study is made with the other bacteriological results sent to the laboratory from the different Departments. A study is made of the sensitivity of the isolated stocks to the most widely used antibiotics.
The authors present a case of kidney pseudotumour and stress the difficulty of reaching a final diagnosis in relation to the course of therapy.
The authors present a case of sarcomatoid kidney adenocarcinome of the fibrosarcomatoid kind. They stress the importance and difficulty of making a differential diagnosis between the sarcomatoid type of kidney adenocarcinomas and pure sarcomas of the kidney, this being an entirely histopathological and extremely complex diagnosis. They comment upon the possible histogenesis in the sense that they may be sarcomatoid areas deriving from the stroma or from a cellular metaplasia of the adenocarcinoma.

A case is presented of periureteral varicose veins which are rare but which constitute a possible cause of recurring hematuria. The authors analyse the general problems of this process, with regard to its etiopathogeny, clinical picture and differential diagnosis. The treatment must be conservative and involves the disappearance of the symptoms.
