We present a case of therapeutic embolization in a patient with adenocarcinoma who demonstrated the presence of gas in the renal infarcted tissue on the second day. The pattern of air distribution was intravascular. There was no sign of abscess clinically or radiographically. To the syndrome of postembolization we add a new sign--the presence of postembolization air.
In 268 patients seen for sterility, sexual impairment or suspected prostatitis symptoms, first and midstream urine fractions, prostatic secretion and post-massage urine cultures as well as semen cultures and exfoliative cytologies of the first urine fraction and prostatic secretion were performed. Gram-positive bacteria were isolated in 160 cases. Of these, 111 (69.3%) had significant cultures (Meares and Stamey criteria). Nevertheless, when we repeated the study without previous therapy, the results could not be confirmed. This shows that Gram-positive bacteria do colonize urethra and/or prostatic ducts, but are not responsible for prostatic infection.
