Giant asymptomatic left renal oncocytoma in a 40-year-old man: a case report.

Renal oncocytoma is a benign tumor that arises from epithelial cells of the distal renal tubules. It is naturally presented with a small-sized mass, and giant oncocytoma is uncommon. Renal oncocytoma is frequently asymptomatic and challenging to distinguish preoperatively from renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We present a 40-year-old man who presented with intermittent abdominal pain in the last two years. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan showed a large, heterogenous left renal mass measured 15 x 16 x 19.5 cm and associated with central calcifications suspected of RCC. The patient underwent a left radical nephrectomy without complication. The histopathological study revealed typical oncocytoma features. There was no detected recurrence or distant metastasis on six months follow-up. In conclusion, it is challenging to distinguish renal oncocytoma from RCC via preoperative radiology images, especially when a giant mass is present. The only histopathology examination of the removed specimen can provide a definitive diagnosis.

Repair of total penile skin loss after ritual circumcision using a scrotal flap: a case report.

Ritual circumcision is associated with a high rate of complications, mainly if performed by an untrained practitioner. Furthermore, excessive skin removal is a rare complication of this procedure that results in penis "trapping" underneath the skin and future sexual dysfunction. Here, we presented a 45-day-old Yemeni newborn with a trapped penis due to total loss of penile skin during a ritual circumcision performed by a traditional untrained practitioner using the guillotine technique one month ago. The patient underwent surgical exploration, and the penis was deliberated, released, and the skin defect was repaired with a single-step scrotal flap advancement over the penile shaft. At the six-month follow-up, the outcome was both functional and cosmetically satisfying. In conclusion, we recommend that the circumcision procedure be performed at the very least by an educated and skilled health professional. Additionally, a scrotal advancement flap is still an option in significant penile skin loss cases.
