Urethro-thigh fistula. Report of 2 cases.

Two rare cases of urethro-thigh fistula are described. Both of them occurred following pelvic trauma. We suggest that trauma, hematoma and infection, suppuration, are the etiology for the development of fistula from a torn urethra to the thigh. A review of the English literature failed to reveal other cases of such an unusual complication.

Epidural morphine: a new approach to combined anesthesia and analgesia in urological patients.

The effect of combined epidural anesthesia and epidural morphine injection is discussed. A group of 98 patients (group A), chosen at random, was operated on under such combined anesthesia and compared to a similar group of 98 patients (group B), equally chosen at random, operated on under either spinal or general anesthesia with no epidural morphine added. Over 87% of group A needed no narcotic drugs for postoperative pain. All patients in the group B needed 60-80 mg of morphine during the first 48 postoperative hours. The quantity of morphine required was the main parameter for comparison. The postoperative course in group A was considerably easier while the operative results were equal in both groups.

Preoperative evaluation of prostatic size by urethral pressure profilometry.

A prospective study was conducted on 41 patients with benign prostatic hypertrophy. All patients underwent preoperative gas urethral pressure profilometry. The results showed an accurate correlation between prostatic profile length and prostatic urethral length, as measured after enucleation. The same correlation is found between the above parameters and the weight of the enucleated adenoma. Our results support the value of urethral pressure profile as a useful procedure in the preoperative estimation of prostatic size.

Lymphangioma of bladder.

We report the first case of a lymphangioma arising from the wall of the bladder, protruding into the lumen on 1 side and invading the peritoneal cavity on the other side. The presenting sign was painless macroscopic hematuria that had occurred initially 2 months before hospitalization. Treatment consisted of partial cystectomy. A review of the literature failed to reveal a report of an identical case.
