[Giant hydronephrosis: two case reports].
Giant hydronephrosis is uncommon. Ureteropelvic obstruction represent the more frequent cause. In 1939, Stirling defined it as the presence of more than 1000 ml of fluid in the collecting system. The Authors report two cases with ureteropelvic obstruction causing giant hydronephrosis. The treatment includes pyeloplasty in the first case and nephrectomy in the second case.

[Small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the bladder. A new case report].
This rare but aggressive bladder tumour presents the morphological and immunohistochemical characteristic common to all neuro-endocrine tumours observed in other organs. The authors report a case of primarymalignant neuro-endocrine bladder tumour. Combined surgery-cisplatin-based adjuvant chematherapy is recommended.

[Metastatic cerebral abscess from Klebsiella pneumoniae after extracorporal shock wave lithotripsy for kidney stone (a case report)].
Extra-corporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) is widely used to treat urinary calculi. With increasing numbers of ESWL, more patients prone to infectious complications. A 62-year-old man presented with cerebral abscess following ESWL. The authors discuss presenting conditions, risk factors and preventive measures.

[Renal oncocytoma. Three case reports].
Renal oncocytoma represents a rare benign tumor accounted for 3-5% of renal neoplasms. It has been mistaken for and mistabled as granular or dark cell carcinoma. Between 1993 and 1998, 3 women with renal oncocytoma were recognized at formation and underwent radical nephrectomy. Sonography and the CT scan was performed but the Accurate diagnosis was not possible before performing surgery and histologic investigations. The mean Follow-up of 3 patients was 48 month and showed a benign clinical behaviour in all cases.

[Inflammatory pseudotumor of the kidney: about a case of bilharzioma].
Inflammatory pseudotumors are benign neoplasms associated with local or general manifestations. Renal localisation seems exceptional, the etiology is unknown. The article raises the question of the problem in establishing a preoperative definitive diagnosis, as a correct diagnosis is often only confirmed following nephrectomy.

[Pathologic horseshoe kidney. Report of 13 cases].
The authors report a series of 13 horseshoe kidneys observed over a 22-year period. All patients are men with a mean age of 39 years (20-65 years). The clinical features were dominated by abdomino-lumbar pain (nine cases). The horseshoe kidney was associated with renal stones in nine cases, uretero-pelvic junction syndrome in five cases and pyonephrosis in one case. The specific anatomic and surgical features of this rare malformation are emphasized and the therapeutic features of each uropathy associated with horseshoe kidney are discussed.

Clear cell sarcoma of the kidney in an adult. A case report.
DEFINITION: Clear cell sarcoma of the kidney was initially thought to be a variant of Wilms tumour with an unfavourable prognosis. METHODS: A 23 years-old woman presented with a right abdominal mass. CT scan revealed a solid 23 cm tumour of the right kidney. A right radical nephrectomy with retroperitoneal lymph node dissection was accomplished. The histological diagnosis was clear cell sarcoma. A combination chemotherapy regimen (cisplatin and doxorubicin) was performed on six cycles. RESULTS: After two years, there was no evidence of tumour in the abdomen and thorax on CT Scan. The patient is being well. CONCLUSION: Optimal treatment is unknown, and surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are used alone but mostly in combination.

[Neuroendocrine tumor of the prostate. A case report].
We report one case of neuroendocrine tumour of the prostate in a 74 years old patient. The clinical symptomatology was dominated by pollakuria, dysuria. Digital rectal examination showed a bulky prostate, hard and irregular. The rate of PSA was high (23 ng/mL). The endorectal ultrasonography revealed a pelvic heterogeneous mass depending of prostate. The biopsy showed an adenocarcinoma of prostate. The patient underwent a transuretral resection of the prostate (TURP) and pulpectomy. Histology and immunohistochemistry through antibody anti NES and antibody antisynaptophysin of shavings of resection revealed a neuroendocrine tumour of the prostate. Twelve months after, the lung X-ray, abdominal ultrasonography and bone scintigram was normal. The rate of PSA was 2.1 ng/mL.

[Detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia: four case reports and literature review].
UNLABELLED: Detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia is responsible for major impairment and is factor for social and professional activity repercussions. METHODS: We have studied the clinical and urodynamic finding in four patients (two men and two women) with detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia. Mean age is 36 years (26-44 years). Dyssynergia was secondary to tuberculosis meningitis in one case, surgery for rectal adenocarcinoma in one case, tight vertebral canal in one case and in one case the cause is indeterminate. The detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia were treated by autocatheterism in two cases, antibiotherapy antituberculosis associated with an anticholinergic drugs in one case and by alpha-blockers agent in another. RESULTS: Quasi-complete salvage of the motor deficit and the dysfonctional voiding in a patient treated by antibiotherapy antituberculosis associated with an anticholinergic drugs. As well, maid evolution in patient treated by alpha-blockers agent and who practice self catheterization. CONCLUSION: Optimal treatment is unknown, and the existence of several cures indicated the limit of all therapeutic methods.

[A supernumerary kidney. Apropos of a case].
Supernumerary kidney is a rare poorly documented anomaly. It's generally discovered in stage of complications. Preoperative diagnosis is difficult. The authors report a case of hydronephrotic supernumerary kidney, diagnosed preoperatively, in a 45 years old patient with a review of the literature.

[Nephroblastoma in adults: apropos of 2 cases].
Adult nephroblastoma is a rare tumor. The authors report two new cases observed in a 30 and 34 years old men in whom the diagnosis was made by histo-pathology. They were admitted for enormous kidney mass. We performed nephrectomy in one case, and surgical biopsy in the other. No adjuvant treatment was given. The prognosis was fatal. They study the particular features of this tumour. Its prognosis appeared to be poorer than that of renal adenocarcinoma.

[Intrascrotal inflammatory pseudotumor (a case report)].
We report one case of intrascrotal inflammatory tumour in a 12 year-old boy. The clinical symptomatology was a tumoral rise in the right scrotal volume. The rate of biological markers was normal. A testicular neoplasm was highly suspected in scrotal ultrasound and CT scan. A radical orchidectomy was accomplished and histological examination revealed a peritesticular inflammatory tumor without neoplasm. The clinical and imaging findings of the tumor are discussed.

Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis and ankylosing spondylitis. A new case report.
The case of a 52-year-old man with retroperitoneal fibrosis and ankylosing spondylitis is described. Inflammatory low back pain and acute renal insufficiency prompted a computed tomography scan of the abdomen with contrast agent injection. A fibrous sheath surrounding the aorta and attracting the ureters toward the midline was seen, strongly suggesting retroperitoneal fibrosis. The diagnosis of ankylosing spondylitis was based on the presence of inflammatory low back pain responsive to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, syndesmophytes at the lumbar and cervical spine, bilateral sacroiliitis, and presence of the HLA-B27 antigen. Prednisone therapy in a daily dosage of 1 mg/kg induced a marked improvement. Only nine cases of concomitant retroperitoneal fibrosis and ankylosing spondylitis have been reported. These two conditions share similarities in some of the etiologic factors and anatomic localizations, suggesting that both may stem from a predisposition to fibrotic diseases.

[Anterior urethral injury. Report of 23 cases].
UNLABELLED: We reviewed our experience in managing anterior urethral traumatic rupture. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between January 1986 and December 1998 a total of 23 consecutive male patients with anterior urethral trauma were studied prospectively, including a clinical and radiographic of the pelvis examination, excretory urography and retrograde urethrography. The average patient age was 29 years (range 19 and 65 years). The mechanism of injury was represented by the blunt perineal trauma in 17 cases and the cavernous body rupture in six cases. Clinical manifestations are dominated by the urethrorragia (19 cases), urinary retention (16 cases), perineal hematoma (14 cases). Radiological imaging have shown a pelvic fracture (six cases), urethral rupture (17 cases) and bladder rupture (three cases). Therapeutic procedure realized in emergency in six patients having a cavernous body lesion and delayed repair in 17 other patients. RESULT: The outcame was favorable in 12 patients and recurrence stenosis has occurred in 11 patients who are corrected by optical urethrotomy (four cases), end-to-end anastomosis (two cases), B. Johanson urethroplasty (three cases) urethroplasty by penile skin (one case), dilations (one case). CONCLUSION: Suprapubic cystostomy with healing control of the partial ruptures, delayed end-to-end anastomosis for total ruptures and immediate reparation of the urethral rupture when associated with a penile fracture are even the best warrant of a correct functional recovery.

Adrenal myelolipoma. A case report.
We report a new case in a 56 years old patient who manifested right side's pains. The abdominal CT scan showed a tumor of the right adrenal gland with fat density (size: 8 x 6 x 6 cm). This tumor was removed surgically (weight: 300 g). The histological finding revealed a proliferation of adipocyts and myeloid tissue which contains megakaryocytes, erythroid cells and lymphocyts. The outcome is good after three years of surgery. The surgical treatment becomes necessary when the tumor's size increases or it becomes symptomatic.

[Verrucous carcinoma and Buschke-Lowenstein tumors: apropos of 2 cases].
The authors present two cases of verrucous carcinomas on Buschke-Lowenstein tumor. The Buschke-Lowenstein tumor is an epithelial sexually transmissible benign tumor of viral origin. Under the influence of oncogenic papillomavirus types 16 and 18 it can become malignant tumor which relations with the verrucous carcinoma, tumor with low grade and essentially local malignancy are still discussed. This evolution follows the alteration by a viral protein of the functions of the tumor suppressor protein P 53. The surgery remains the reference treatment although there is a possibility of frequent recurrences. Radiation therapy and chemotherapy were suggested as adjuvant treatments for the complicated sorts.

[Giant retroperitoneal hemangiopericytoma: a new case].
Hemangiopericytomas are a rare vascular tumours that are derived from Zimmermann pericytes. Retroperitoneal hemangiopericytoma is usually bulky, clinical silent, and malignant. We present a 48 years old man, with compressive symptoms and a painless mass due to a giant retroperitoneal hemangiopericytoma weighing 3 kg. We are prompted to present this case as it is believed to be the largest hemangiopericytoma reported to date.
