ABSTRACT

The infestation of the human body by maggots has been reported worldwide and occurs most commonly in people of lower socioeconomic status and poor personal hygiene. Urogenital is the rarest site of myiasis presentations. Here we report the case of a 20-year-old, sexually inactive female student who presented with a necrotic growth in the paraurethral region infested with numerous maggots. The lesion involved the urethra and the bladder base. She was treated with debridement and bladder irrigation. The cystoscopy and local examination performed 2 weeks after admission, confirmed the complete healing of the urogenital lesion. Managing this patient's unique challenge was to assess the extent of the involvement and removal of all maggots from the deepest wound portion. The female internal and external urogenital myiasis is a very occasional and under-reported health hazard. Reporting such cases increases the public and physician awareness about the mode of presentation, right diagnosis, and available treatment options.

ABSTRACT

Resumen OBJETIVO: Determinar los cambios en el punto Aa del sistema POP-Q y en la prueba del Q-tip para hipermovilidad uretral y en los parámetros urodinámicos encontrados antes y 1 año después de la colocación de una cinta mediouretral. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio retrospectivo efectuado en pacientes a quienes se colocó una cinta mediouretral mediante acceso transobturador y retropúbico, por diagnóstico de incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo, incontinencia urinaria mixta, incontinencia dual o con índice de riesgo de incontinencia urinaria de novo, posterior a cirugía de prolapso (R-CALC) mayor de 30%. RESULTADOS: Se estudiaron 200 pacientes de 51.59 ± 10.13 años de edad promedio. Conforme al grado de prolapso de órganos pélvicos, el estadio II tuvo una frecuencia de 57.5% (n = 115), el grado III de 21.5% (n = 43). En los hallazgos de la exploración física, previa a la cirugía, se encontró que 69% (n = 138) de las pacientes tuvieron una prueba de Q tip con hipermovilidad uretral (más de 30°). Al comparar el porcentaje de pacientes con hipermovilidad uretral posterior a 1 año de la cirugía, se observó disminución en las pacientes con hipermovilidad (p = 0.0001). La cuantificación del punto Aa en la escala del sistema POP-Q se encontró durante la exploración preoperatoria a 0.1 ± 1.17 cm respecto del himen y al año del procedimiento quirúrgico a -1.54 ± 1.18 cm, con p = 0.0001. CONCLUSIÓN: En todas las pacientes se demostró la disminución significativa del punto Aa en la revaloración del POP-Q de un estadio II a I posterior a la colocación de una cinta mediouretral; además de la disminución en el ángulo de movilidad uretral. No se observaron modificaciones significativas en los parámetros urodinámicos evaluados.


Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine the changes in point Aa of the POP-Q system and in the Q-tip test for urethral hypermobility as well as in the urodynamic parameters found before and 1 year after mediurethral sling placement. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Retrospective study carried out in patients who were placed with a mediourethral tape by transobturator and retropubic access, by diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence, mixed urinary incontinence, dual incontinence or with risk index of de novo urinary incontinence after surgery. Prolapse (R-CALC) greater than 30%. RESULTS: 200 patients of 51.59 ± 10.13 years of average age were studied. According to the degree of pelvic organ prolapse, stage II had a frequency of 57.5% (n = 115), grade III with 21.5% (n = 43). In the physical examination findings, prior to surgery, it was found that 69% (n = 138) of the patients had a Q tip test with urethral hypermobility (more than 30°). When comparing the percentage of patients with urethral hypermobility after 1 year of surgery, a decrease was observed in patients with hypermobility (p = 0.0001). The quantification of point Aa on the scale of the POP-Q system was found during the preoperative examination at 0.1 ± 1.17 cm with respect to the hymen and one year after the surgical procedure at -1.54 ± 1.18 cm, with p = 0.0001. CONCLUSION: The significant decrease in point Aa in the reassessment of POP-Q from stage II to I after the placement of a mediourethral tape in all patients was demonstrated, in addition to the decrease in the angle of urethral mobility. No significant changes were observed in the urodynamic parameters evaluated.

ABSTRACT

Abstract: Background: In this study, cases with suspected urethral condylomata acuminata were examined by dermoscopy, in order to explore an effective method for clinical. Objective: To study the application of dermoscopy image analysis technique in clinical diagnosis of urethral condylomata acuminata. Methods: A total of 220 suspected urethral condylomata acuminata were clinically diagnosed first with the naked eyes, and then by using dermoscopy image analysis technique. Afterwards, a comparative analysis was made for the two diagnostic methods. Results: Among the 220 suspected urethral condylomata acuminata, there was a higher positive rate by dermoscopy examination than visual observation. Study limitations: Dermoscopy examination technique is still restricted by its inapplicability in deep urethral orifice and skin wrinkles, and concordance between different clinicians may also vary. Conclusion: Dermoscopy image analysis technique features a high sensitivity, quick and accurate diagnosis and is non-invasive, and we recommend its use.

ABSTRACT

Abstract: Background: Urethral discharge syndrome (UDS) is characterized by the presence of purulent or mucopurulent urethral discharge.The main etiological agents of this syndrome are Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Chlamydia trachomatis. Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of the syndromic management to resolve symptoms in male urethral discharge syndrome cases in Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil. Methods: Retrospective cohort of male cases of urethral discharge syndrome observed at a clinic for sexually transmitted disease (STD) in 2013. Epidemiological and clinical data, as well as the results of urethral swabs, bacterioscopy, hybrid capture for C.trachomatis, wet-mount examination, and culture for N.gonorrhoeae, were obtained through medical chart reviews. Results: Of the 800 urethral discharge syndrome cases observed at the STD clinic, 785 (98.1%) presented only urethral discharge syndrome, 633 (79.1%) returned for follow-up, 579 (91.5%) were considered clinically cured on the first visit, 41(6.5 %) were considered cured on the second visit, and 13(2.0%) did not reach clinical cure after two appointments. Regarding the etiological diagnosis, 42.7% of the patients presented a microbiological diagnosis of N.gonorrhoeae, 39.3% of non-gonococcal and non-chlamydia urethritis, 10.7% of C.trachomatis and 7.3% of co-infection with chlamydia and gonococcus. The odds of being considered cured in the first visit were greater in those who were unmarried, with greater schooling, and with an etiological diagnosis of gonorrhea. The diagnosis of non-gonococcal urethritis reduced the chance of cure in the first visit. Study limitation: A study conducted at a single center of STD treatment. Conclusion: Syndromic management of male urethral discharge syndrome performed in accordance with the Brazilian Ministry of Health STD guidelines was effective in resolving symptoms in the studied population. More studies with microbiological outcomes are needed to ensure the maintenance of the syndromic management.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT We report the case of a fetus with mega-bladder and suspected lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO). The 20-week pregnancy ultrasound scan showed absence of amniotic fluid (anhydramnios), enlarged bladder, and narrowing of the urethra in the proximal region. At 21 weeks of gestational age, vesicocentesis was performed for relief of obstruction and analysis of biochemical of the fetal urine and karyotyping was carried out, which presented normal result (46,XY). This technique is indicated in cases of severe oligohydramnios or difficulty of placental access and has diagnostic and therapeutic function.


RESUMO Relatamos o caso de um feto com megabexiga e suspeita de obstrução do trato urinário inferior (LUTO). O exame ultrassonográfico realizado com 20 semanas de gestação mostrou líquido amniótico ausente (adramnia), bexiga com aumento de volume e estreitamento na região da uretra proximal. Na 21ª semana de gestação, foi realizada a vesicocentese para alívio e análise bioquímica e cariotípica da urina fetal, que apresentou resultado normal (46,XY). Essa técnica é indicada em casos de grave oligodramnia ou dificuldade de acesso placentário e tem função diagnóstica e terapêutica.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To determine the efficacy of mitomycin C in reducing the recurrence of anterior urethral stricture after internal optical urethrotomy (IOU). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a randomized controlled trial conducted in the Department of Urology at the Institute of Kidney Diseases Peshawar from March 2011 to December 2013. A total of 151 patients who completed the study were divided into two groups by the lottery method. Group A (cases) comprised 78 patients in whom mitomycin C 0.1% was injected submucosally in the stricture after conventional IOU. Group B (controls) comprised 73 patients in whom IOU only was performed. Self-clean intermittent catheterization was not offered in either group. All patients were regularly followed up for 18 months. Recurrence was diagnosed by use of retrograde urethrogram in all patients and flexible urethroscopy in selected cases. Data were collected on a structured pro forma sheet and were analyzed by SPSS. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients in group A was 37.31+/-10.1 years and that in group B was 40.1+/-11.4 years. Recurrence of urethral stricture was recorded in 11 patients (14.1%) in group A and in 27 patients (36.9%) in group B (p=0.002). The mitomycin group also showed a delay in recurrence compared with the control group (p=0.002). CONCLUSIONS: Recurrence of urethral stricture is high after optical urethrotomy. Mitomycin C was found to be highly effective in preventing the recurrence of urethral stricture after IOU.

ABSTRACT

Introduction

Our purpose was, applying a strictly defined protocol for urethral profilometry, 1) to test the repeatability of same session rest maximum urethral closure pressure (MUCP) and 2) to search for correlation between women complaint and the changes in MUCP value (rest and dynamic tests). Materials and Methods

A population of 140 consecutive women referred for evaluation of lower urinary tract dysfunction was stratified in 4 groups according with the urinary symptoms: stress, urge, mixed incontinence and continent and in each group in 3 age groups (young, middle age and old). The sequence of tests recorded in supine position was: urethral pressure profile at rest bladder empty, after bladder filling at 250 mL (reference test), stress profile, fatigability (before (rest) and after 10 successive strong coughs), then in standing position. Results

In all groups, there was no significant difference between the two MUCP values at rest bladder filled. In the three incontinent groups, MUCP was higher bladder empty than bladder filled (p < 0.05) except in the young sub-group. Stress incontinence led to significant decrease of MUCP during dynamic tests in the young group. MUCP was not modified after fatigability test in women with urge complaint whatever age. Conclusion

When recorded following a strictly defined protocol, MUCP at rest bladder filled has a good repeatability in individual. However a complex sequence of tests during urethral pressure profilometry remains discussed in middle-age and old age-groups, it allows specifying the stress component of incontinence in young women and the urgency component in all age-groups. .

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: verificar a associação entre sinais ultrassonográficos durante a gestação e evoluções pós-natais em casos de fetos com uropatias obstrutivas bilaterais, acompanhados de forma expectante. MÉTODOS: fetos com uropatias obstrutivas bilaterais apresentando oligoâmnio grave e tórax estreito foram comparados a fetos com uropatias obstrutivas bilaterais que não desenvolveram estas alterações com relação à presença ou ausência de cistos em ambos os rins e à presença ou ausência de hiperecogenicidade de parênquima em ambos os rins. Casos em que houve óbito do neonato foram comparados com aqueles em que o neonato teve alta do berçário em relação aos mesmos aspectos ecográficos renais acima citados, à presença de oligoâmnio grave e de tórax estreito. A sensibilidade, a especificidade, os valores preditivos positivo e negativo da presença de cistos renais bilaterais, hiperecogenicidade renal bilateral, oligoâmnio grave e tórax fetal estreito para óbito do neonato foram calculados. RESULTADOS: o oligoâmnio grave e o tórax estreito foram mais frequentes (p=0,03; p<0,001) nos fetos que tiveram cistos renais bilaterais quando comparados àqueles com parênquimas renais ecograficamente normais. O óbito neonatal foi mais frequente entre os casos que tiveram oligoâmnio grave (p<0,001), tórax estreito (p<0,001) e cistos renais bilaterais (p<0,002) quando respectivamente comparados aos casos sem essas alterações. Os melhores valores de sensibilidade, especificidade, valores preditivos positivo e negativo para óbito do neonato/lactente foram obtidos com o uso do aspecto ecográfico tórax estreito, tendo sido de 81,8, 100, 100 e 79,3 por cento, respectivamente. CONCLUSÕES: Em casos de fetos com uropatias obstrutivas bilaterais acompanhados de forma expectante, os sinais ultrassonográficos mais associados ao mau prognóstico são o oligoâmnio grave, o tórax fetal estreito e a presença de cistos renais bilaterais.


PURPOSE: to verify the association between ultrasonographic signs during gestation and post-delivery evolution in fetuses with bilateral obstructive uropathies, followed up in an expectant way. METHODS: fetuses with bilateral obstructive uropathies presenting severe oligoamnios and narrow thorax have been compared with fetuses with bilateral obstructive uropathies without those alterations, concerning the presence or absence of cysts in both kidneys, and the presence or absence of parenchymal hyperechogenicity in both kidneys. Cases of neonatal death were compared with cases of neonatal discharge from the nursery, regarding the same renal echographic aspects mentioned above, the presence of severe oligoamnios and narrow thorax. The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value of the presence of bilateral renal cysts, bilateral renal hyperechogenicity, severe oligoamnios and narrow fetal thorax for the neonatal death were calculated. RESULTS: severe oligoamnios and narrow thorax were more frequent (p=0.03; p<0.001) in fetuses with bilateral renal cysts, as compared to those with echographically normal renal parenchyma. Neonatal death was more frequent among cases with severe oligoamnios (p<0.001), narrow thorax (p<0.001) and bilateral renal cysts (p<0.002), when respectively compared with cases without those alterations. The best values of sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value for the death of neonatal/breastfeeding infants were obtained using the echographic aspect of narrow thorax, and were 81.8, 100, 100 and 79.3 percent, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: in cases of fetuses with bilateral obstructive uropathies followed up in an expectant way, the ultrasonographic signs more associated to bad prognosis are severe oligoamnios, narrow fetal thorax and presence of bilateral renal cysts.

ABSTRACT

The diverticula of female urethra are very uncommon, but more frequently found between the third and fifth decade of life. Diverticula area mostly relate to repeated urinary infections of the periurethral glands or urethras trauma. The diverticula may cause infection, calculus formation and rarely endometriosis or cancer. A case of a 65-year old Caucasian female with vaginal mass over six months is herein reported. There was no urinary loss, urethral secretion or urinary symptoms. A cystourethrography showed diverticula with calculus inside. The patient was submitted to surgery and dismissed from the hospital on the first postoperative day. The pathologic examination revealed no malignancy. In six months of follow-up, the patient was continent with no complaints.


Os divertículos de uretra feminina são incomuns, porém mais frequentes entre a terceira e a quinta década de vida. A maioria dos divertículos de uretra está relacionada a infecções recorrentes das glândulas periuretrais ou traumatismo uretral. Os divertículos podem ser sítio de infecções, formação de cálculos e, mais raramente, endometriose ou neoplasia. Relata-se o caso de paciente de 65 anos, branca, com queixa de nódulo em parede vaginal notado há seis meses. Negava incontinência urinária, derrame uretral e sintomas urinários de armazenamento ou de esvaziamento. A uretrocistografia miccional revelou divertículo uretral associado a cálculo. Submetida à cirurgia, teve alta hospitalar no primeiro dia pós-operatório. O resultado do exame anatomopatológico não evidenciou malignidade. Após seis meses de seguimento, a paciente encontra-se sem queixas urinárias ou vaginais e com continência urinária preservada.
