[Renal cancer in elderly: clinical and histopathological findings].

OBJECTIVE: to evaluate the clinical and pathological characteristics of the CCR in our series of tumors, analyzing its impact in the group of age greater than 65 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 300 patients with renal adenocarcinoma (CCR) were studied. In 252, ploidy pattern of DNA and pathologic characteristics of the surgical pieces were done. According to the criteria of the Spanish Society of Geriatrics, the patients were divided in two groups based on the age, greater and smaller of 65 years. The clinical and pathologic characteristics were compared between both groups. RESULTS: 103 of the 300 patients (33.3%) were included in the geriatric group. We did not found differences between both groups comparing stage, tumoral volume or treatment realized, but found differences in DNA ploidy pattern, recurrences and survey. CONCLUSIONS: The RCC in the elderly has a few clinical and pathological characteristics similar to the rest of patients in our series. Nevertheless differences exist in the average and actuarial survival, which is minor in the patient of more than 65 years, cause the percentage of detected aneuploidies and number of recurrences in not confined tumors in this group of age.

[Vesicoureteric reflux endoscopic treatment complications in childhood].

INTRODUCTION: Nowadays, around 1% of children suffer from vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), which represents a risk factor for long-term kidney damage. In the last decade, development in this field has shown that subureteric endoscopic injection of bulking agents for childhood VUR is an acceptable alternative unlike long-term antibiotic prophylaxis and open surgery. OBJECTIVE: To establish the complications of childhood VUR endoscopic treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis was carried out for every patient treated endoscopically in our department from January 1999 to September 2003, with a total amount of 516 implants of submucous bulking agents. All patients were assessed with an ultrasound as a first diagnostic technique so as to establish the complications associated with it, especially ureteral obstruction and injected agent migration. RESULTS: Out of 516 cases, Macroplastique was used in 455, Deflux in 44 and Polytef in 17. 10 patients (1.9%) (5 girls/ 5 boys), with ages ranging from 15 months to 11,4 years, presented some kind of complications (Macroplastique was used in 8cases and Deflux in 2). Among them, 5 were remarkable due to an ureterohydronefrosis, 2 of which needed a nephrostomy. 3 patients presented an implant migration, 1 epididymitis and 1 bladder edema. CONCLUSIONS: Endoscopic bulking agent injection has become a safe alternative to open surgery in childhood VUR management.

[Ultrasound role in assessment of vesicoureteral reflux endoscopic treatment results].

INTRODUCTION: Since the beginning of the application of the RVU treatment, the use of the ultrasound was used taking into account two main indications/symptoms: a) identification of the complications; b) assessment of the result (visualization of the implanted material and the presence of the "uretheral jet" by means or through/of ecodoppler-color). OBJECTIVE: To determine the value of the ultrasound in the assessment of the result of the endoscopic treatment of the RVU and in the detection of its complications. MATERIAL AND METHOD: From 2001-2002 we have carried out the endoscopic treatment to an overall of 261 ureteral units of all degree and etiology. 246 were assessed post-operation with an ultrasound per month and all of them were evaluated with a cistography after 3 months. In a random sample of 92 units, the result of the isotopic cistography has been compared with the visualization of the implanted material in the bladder; and in a random sample of 56 units, the result of the isotopic cistography has been compared with the presence of ureteral jet in the study with ecodoppler-color after moisturizing of the patient. In order to do, we have done two corresponding comparative charts 2 x 2 and we have calculated the Sensibility and Specificity of the tests, as well as their predictive positive and negative values, the degree of similarity of both tests with the Kappa index, and the degree of statistical relevance with Chi squared. RESULTS: The ultrasound did not show significant changes if compared to previous studies in 213 units (86,58 %) although in 5 patients an ectasia has been identified as attributed to the treatment. 3 of this patients have developed renoureteral pain, and in 2 pain has spontaneously disappeared as shown in later tests. The S and the E of the presence of implanted material is 94% and 10%respectively and its VPP and VPN of 80% and 10% and estadistical. The S and E of the jet visualization is 82% and 30%, with a VPP of 84% and a VPN of 27%, a level of statistical relevance of 0.836 and a degree of correlation of 0.121. CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasound is not a useful technique in the assessment of the result of the endoscopic treatment of the RVU. The role it plays in the assessment of complications is a small one and its use is only indicated to confirm the suspicion of ectasia in those patients that present renoureteral pain.

[Conservative surgery of bilateral renal angiomyolipoma during pregnancy].

The existence of bilateral renal angiomyolipoma (AML) is fairly infrequent, especially when not associated with such syndromes as tuberous sclerosis or linfangioleimiomatosis. Here we present the case of a 40-year-old woman who was accidentally diagnosed at week 33rd of gestation by an ultrasound, of bilateral renal AML and that could be treated with kidney sparing conservative treatment. We have also done a review of the literature focusing on its management and its relationship with pregnancy.

[Comparative study between tobramicin and tobramicin plus ciprofloxacin in transrectal prostate biopsy prophylaxis].

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: To compare the efficacy of tobramicin and tobramicin + ciprofloxacin for prevention of transrectal prostatic biopsy infectious complications. We revised our complications, microorganism most common in the infectious complications, and their sensibility. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Prospective and randomized study in 153 patients with 157 prostatic biopsies. The 71 patients in group A were treated with intramuscular tobramicin 100 mg, one dose 30 minutes before biopsy and another one 8 hours afterwards. The 85 patients in group B were treated with the same tobramicin doses and oral ciprofloxacin 500 mg, one dose 30 minutes before biopsy and afterwards they continue with the ciprofloxacin every 12 hours during 3 days. RESULTS: we did 71 biopsies in group A and 86 in group B. 50 (31,8%) patients had hematuria, 20 (12,7%) fever, 15 (9,5%) hemospermia, 7 (4,4%) perineal pain, one (1,2%) orchiepididymitis and another one (1,2%) urinary retention. The patients who had fever were 15 of the group A and 5 of the group B (p=0,004). A total of 15 (21,1%) patients with fever of the group A needed to be treated in the hospital and 3 patients (3,5%) of the group B (p=0,0006). E. coli growthed in 67% of the blood cultures and amoxicillin-clavulanic, tobramicin and third generation of cephalosporins were the antibiotics more eficacious. CONCLUSIONS: Prophylaxis scheme with tobramicin plus ciprofloxacin was more efficacy that tobramicina alone in transrectal prostatic biopsy. Hematuria was the most common complication. E. coli was the microorganism most frequent in infectious complications after prostatic biopsy and amoxicillin-clavulanic, tobramicin and third generation of cephalosporins the most effective antibiotics in our hospital.

[Prostatic abscess: report of a case and review of the literature].

Prostatic abscess is an uncommon entity nowadays due to widely use of antibiotics, however, in some patients, because of the seriousness, a quick diagnosis and interventionist treatment is required. We report a case of a 78 year-old male patient who had a torpid evolution and needed an urgent prostatectomy. We review ethiopathogenic factors, clinical findings, diagnosis and treatment of this uncommon entity.

[Necrosis of the skin of the penis as a complication of the use of a urine collector].

We illustrate a case of penile skin necrosis in a patient suffering from urinary incontinence caused by a secondary neurogenic bladder that, in turn, results from a spinal cord injury. The skin necrosis developed out of continuous pressure from the condom catheter. We report the case bearing into consideration that these complications are extremely rare and that references in the literature to the topic are likewise scarce. However, due to the high frequency of patients suffering from incontinence who use these devices, we believe it necessary to account for the possible consequences which might derive from an incorrect use of them.

[Mucinous adenocarcinoma of the bladder].

Mucinous adenocarcinoma is a rare entity within the group of primary adenocarcinoma of the bladder which represent 0.5-2% of all malignant epithelial bladder tumours. In spite of the rarity of this tumoral type; it is a poor prognosis entity mainly due to its diagnosis especially in advanced stage of the disease. There is no general agreement on the treatment of adenocarcinoma of bladder. Not withstanding surgery would be the only curative treatment, although unfortunately, it is curative in just a few cases. We report six cases with mucinous adenocarcinoma of the bladder attended in our Department in the last ten years (january 1991-december 2001). In one of them a radical cystectomy was performed, while transurethral resection with or without adjuvant treatment was practiced in the other one. Only one patient is alive today, namely, the one where the tumour not invade the muscular tissue. These findings show the discouraging results of this entity closely intertwined with the pathologic stage.

[Vesicouterine fistula. Our experience of 25 years].

OBJECTIVE: To determine the current state of vesicouterine fistulae in our hospital, the factors associated with their development and the findings obtained from the treatments used. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We carry out a retrospective study on a group of patients suffering from vesicouterine fistulae who were treated in our service for the last 25 years with a 2 year minimum follow-up. RESULTS: 6 cases of vesicouterine fistulae were evaluated. In 83.3% (5/6) of the cases occurred following caesarean section. The average age of the patients was 36.5 years old. In 50% of the cases, urinary incontinence immediately after surgery determined an early diagnosis. In 5 patients deferred abdominal surgical approach was carried out. All of the patients remained asymptomatic during the follow-up years. Two pregnancies were recorded 24 months after repair with a full term delivery. CONCLUSIONS: The vesicouterine fistula, despite being infrequent, is no longer an exceptional diagnosis. Currently, the low segmentarian caesareans constitute the major isolated risk factor for fistula development. We recommend a deferred surgical repair without discarding a conservative approach for those cases of small and early fistula.

[Peripheral nerve evaluation:indications, technique and results].

INTRODUCTION: Sacral nerve neuromodulation is a new treatment modality for patients with chronic voiding dysfunction (CVD). The aim of this treatment is to restore the disbalanced micturition reflexes by electrical stimulation ot the sacral roots. Peripheral Nerve Evaluation (PNE) is the first step needed to determine wether sacral nerve stimulation for the control of lower urinary tract dysfunction is appropriate for a given patient, yielding accurate information about the location, integrity and function of sacral nerves, and motor and sensorial responses to electrical stimulation. PATIENTS AND METHOD: 43 PNE in 28 patients (13 man and 15 women) were performed between january 2000 and november 2001 (mean age 56.3 years old, 22-76). Every patient have been diagnosed of CVD: 13 Urinary Urge Incontinence (UUI). 5 Urgency-Frequency Syndrome (UFS), 7 Dysfunctional Voiding (DV) and 3 Mixed Syndromes (1 patient UFS + DV and two patients with UUI + DV). RESULTS: Every acute stimulation showed positive sensory and motor responses. There was premature lead migration in 8 PNE (18.6%), preventing an appropriate evaluation of the temporal stimulation. 35 PNE were evaluated after a 6.5 days period (3-15) of electrical stimulation. There were no significative complications, and PNE was well tolerated. Good clinical results (> 50% reduction in symptoms) were observed in 7/13 patients with UUI (53.8%), 2/5 patients with UFS (40%), 1/7 patients with DV (14.2%) and 1/3 patients with mixed syndromes (UUI + DV) (33.3%). 11 of 28 patients with CVD (39.2%) have been selected as candidates for permanent implantation. CONCLUSION: Actually, PNE is the first step needed to determine wether sacral nerve stimulation for the control of lower urinary tract dysfunction is appropriate for a given patient. With PNE we can select properly adequate candidates for permanent implantation. It is an easy and well tolerated technique, and can be performed in any medical center in an outpatient basis.

[Retrorbital metastasis an initial manifestation of prostatic cancer].

Orbital metastasis is an unusual localization within tumoral dissemination of prostatic cancer. Similarly, it is rare that orbital metastasis might be responsible for the clinic manifestations that determine the initial diagnosis of neoplasia. We illustrate the case of a patient suffering from prostatic adernocarcinoma that displayed alterations of facial sensitivity and right eye exophthalmos. We describe how the final diagnosis was reached and the patient's response to the suppressive hormonal treatment. The patient's rate of survival has proved to be longer than the rest of cases documented, with over 30-month follow-up.
