[A case of cystitis glandularis. Its relationship to bladder carcinoma].

A 41-year-old male was admitted to the hospital for frequent urination and severe retardation before voiding. Roentgenography revealed exophytic lesions which were located mainly in the trigone of the bladder, and he underwent transurethral resection. The pathological diagnosis was cystitis glandularis. There was no literature which reported cystitis glandularis causing urinary disturbance. This case, moreover, had been diagnosed as cystitis glandularis 13 years before by endoscopical biopsy. The origin of cystitis glandularis and its potentiality as a pre-malignant lesion were discussed from the clinical course for over 10 years.

[Adenocarcinoma of rete testis].

We report a case of adenocarcinoma of rete testis in 64-year-old man. His first diagnosis was hydrocele of left testis, but aspiration cytology showed malignancy. The patient underwent left orchiectomy. The pathological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma of the rete testis. The cancer was suspected to be arising from the duct of rete testis on the histological examination, and no other malignancy was found elsewhere in his body. However, he died at 10 months after the operation for lung metastasis. Adenocarcinoma of rete testis is one of the rarest malignancies. Only 25 cases have been reported since the first case was described by Feek and Hunter in 1945. This is the twenty-sixth case in the literature.
