Residual masses are a common finding after chemotherapy for metastases from nonseminomatous germ cell tumours of the testes. The prognosis of these patients with resected teratoma following successful cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy generally has been assumed to be good. Herein we reported an unusual teratoma case named "growing teratoma syndrome' by Logothetis et al. This patient was treated with multiple operations.
We report a case of a 43 years old woman with a retroperitoneal liposarcoma located in the left iliac fossa. The condition was discovered because of the association of left flank pain, abdominal distention and persistent urinary infection with symptoms of vesical irritation. The diagnosis was suggested by intravenous pyelography (IVP), abdominal and pelvic ultrasonography (USG) and computed tomography (CT). Treatment was exclusively surgical. During a six-month follow-up, no recurrence was observed.
Renal hydatid disease is uncommon and accounts for only 2 to 3% of all hydatid diseases. The treatment of choice is surgical. Medical therapy is not always satisfactory and radical cure depends mostly on removal of all affected tissue. There is controversy concerning the treatment of residual cavity after evacuation of the cyst. For this problem we performed the pedicled omentoplasty in 4 patients with renal hydatid disease. To our knowledge, this method has not been described previously for renal hydatid disease. Cystectomy with pedicled omentoplasty appears to be safe and effective in the management of renal hydatid disease.
Although there are many causes of the production of antispermatozoal antibodies, there are still unknown aetiological factors. Antispermatozoal antibodies were investigated in the postoperative period in 25 infertile men with varicocele whose antispermatozoal antibody tests were negative in the preoperative period. Antispermatozoal antibodies were found in the serum in 4 of the 25 (16%) infertile men after varicocele operation. Postoperative genital infections were detected in 6 patients and antispermatozoal antibodies were present in only 2 of them. The correlation between these antibodies and varicocele has been demonstrated but there is no report on the association of antibodies with varicocelectomy in the literature to date.
Twins aged 19 years presented having been circumcised by an unqualified "itinerant circumciser" at the age of 2 1/2. In one the glans penis and corpus cavernosum were invisible, and the external urethral meatus was at the level of the mons pubis; the other had defects of the glans and corpus, iatrogenic hypospadias, and the end of the penis was protruding only 1.5 cm from the mons pubis. Both underwent successful reconstruction, and are normally sexually active.
Persistent müllerian duct syndrome is a rare form of pseudohermaphroditism, in which well developed müllerian structures are present in an otherwise normal male, possibly resulting from absence of müllerian duct inhibiting factor. Two cases of the syndrome are presented. The diagnosis, as in most cases, was confirmed at herniorrhaphy or exploration for undescended testis.
Between 1981 and 1990, 151 patients with lower ureteral calculi received 163 applications of Zeiss basket (ZB) transurethrally. In the mean time we employed ZB in 17 patients who were operated for various causes. The success rate of 163 ZB applications was 88% and of 17 open surgical applications 94%.
