Peno-scrotal transposition.

Peno-scrotal transposition is an infrequent genital malposition due to a defect in the caudal migration of the inchoate scrotum during intrauterine life. It is frequently associated with urogenital and/or gastrointestinal malformations. Glenn and Anderson (1973) have classified the abnormality into the following categories, according to severity: Bifid scrotum Incomplete or partial peno-scrotal transposition Complete peno-scrotal transposition or pre-penile scrotum Ectopic scrotum We analyse corrective surgical techniques for this malposition and we present our experience.

Central hypoventilation syndrome associated with ganglioneuroblastoma.

In this paper the authors describe a case of central hyperventilation syndrome associated with a neural crest tumor. The girl had several apneic spells at the age of three years. She had a tracheostomy and mechanically assisted ventilation while asleep. Routine hematologic studies and chest x-ray were within normal limits. Computerized tomography scan and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a left paraspinal mass suggestive of a neural crest tumor. This mass was excised and histopathologic findings of this tumor revealed a ganglioneuroblastoma.
