[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.

["Cystic incidentaloma" of the adrenal gland: report of a case].

Cystic tumors of the adrenal gland are uncommon, but are being increasingly more frequently diagnosed during routine radiological evaluation. The management of these "incidentalomas" remains to be defined. Adrenal cysts have been traditionally managed by excision or aspiration to rule out malignancy. Actually, for some authors, in the cases of incidentally found cysts, if the suspicion of malignancy is low, and the lesion is non-functional, observation of the patients with regular follow-up may be an alternative. We report a case of a non-aspirated incidental adrenal cyst with a follow-up of four years.

Adrenal Gland Diseases↗

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.

Adrenal Gland Neoplasms↗

[Hydatid cyst of the psoas. Report of a case].

The authors report a case of hydatid cyst of the psoas muscle in 23 years old woman who presented a left lumboiliac mass. Ultrasonography and computed tomography contributed to the preoperative diagnosis. The cyst was removed by retroperitoneal approach by left lumbotomy. In the light of this case and the literature data, the authors discuss the diagnosis and therapeutic problems raised by hydatid cyst of the psoas muscle.

Adult↗

[Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the prostate].

The authors report a case of sarcomatoid carcinoma of the prostate in a 49-year-old patient. The clinical symptoms were dominated by dysuria and frequency. Digital rectal examination showed a very large, hard and irregular prostate. Serum PSA was normal. Transrectal ultrasonography and abdominopelvic computed tomography showed a heterogeneous mass occupying the vesico-prostatic junction. The patient underwent cystoprostatectomy. Histological examination of the cystoprostatectomy specimen revealed a tumour composed of spindle cells expressing epithelial markers on immunohistochemical analysis and concluded on a diagnosis of sarcomatoid carcinoma of the prostate. The patient died seven months after cystoprostatectomy.

Carcinosarcoma↗

[Paraganglioma associated with gastric schwannosarcoma].

The authors report the case of a 45-year-old patient who presented with a left latero-aortic paraganglioma associated with gastric schwannosarcoma. Treatment consisted of resection of the chromaffin tumour and the gastric tumour, with a favourable course at last follow-up. The authors review the literature on this subject.
