Anaerobic meningitis secondary to a rectothecal fistula arising from an anterior sacral meningocele: report of a case and review of the literature.

An anterior sacral meningocele is a diverticulum of the thecal sac protruding anteriorly from the sacral spinal canal into the extraperitoneal presacral space. It is a rare congenital anomaly comprising of a thin wall of fibrous connective tissue, and containing cerebrospinal fluid and, occasionally, adjacent nerve fibers. We report an unusual case of a 48-year-old male who presented with meningitis secondary to a rectothecal fistula arising from an anterior sacral meningocele.

[Complications of percutaneous nephrolithotomy: risk factors and management].

Extra corporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) has significantly modified the management of urinary lithiasis. It constitutes usually the first line treatment of urinary calculi sized less than 30 mm. Complex and staghorn calculi may be treated either with percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) or by flexible uteroscopy (URS) with Holmium laser. PCNL is a minimal invasive technique but it carries a potential risk of complications: infection, bleeding, urinary fistulas and perforations of adjacent organs. PCNL complications may be prevented by the strict respect of technical recommendations; their therapeutic management has been properly codified. In order to reduce the risk of their occurrence, the so-called "mini-perc" (mini-percutaneous technique) has been developed for children and can be applied to adults. Technical details of the two techniques and the treatment of PCNL complications had been described before 1985; the current chapter proposes an update on their prevention and management.
