Fournier's gangrene revealing an aggressive squamous cell carcinoma of the penis: An exceptional case report.

Fournier's gangrene is a fast progressive necrotizing fasciitis of the perineum and external genitals, It is secondary to polymicrobial infection by aerobic and anaerobic bacteria with synergistic action. The origin of the infection is either cutaneous, urogenital or colorectal. There are age, diabetes and immunosuppression, are frequently present in affected patients. Fluid and electrolyte management, combined with broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy followed rapidly by surgical debridement, is the standard of treatment. we report in this article a very rare case of cancer of the penis manifested by fournier's gangrene.

Urinary bladder metastasis from primary lung cancer, a rare and challenging diagnosis: a case report.

Bladder metastases are rare, representing only 2% of all bladder tumors, secondary bladder localization from a primary lung is exceptional. Case presentation: The authors describe the case followed for lung adenocarcinoma with an exceptional metastatic site, which is the bladder. A computed tomography scan showed a left suprahilar bronchial tumor with pleurisy (Fig. 1A), which biopsies concluded to a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. The patient is treated with palliative cisplatin-based chemotherapy. And died 11 months after diagnosis. Clinical discussion: Bladder metastases are rare, representing only 2% of all malignant bladder tumors. Metastatic lesions of the bladder are generally revealed by hematuria. Confirmation of bladder invasion is immunohistochemical, facilitated by knowledge of the primitive. Conclusion: In the presence of any adenocarcinoma of the bladder, a thoracic-abdominal-pelvic computed tomography scan must be requested in search of a primary extra-vesical cancer who can facilitate the diagnosis.

Acute epididymitis revealing isolated testicular tuberculosis: A rare case report.

Genitourinary tuberculosis is a rare form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis that affects the kidneys, ureters, prostate, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, testes, and epididymis. Testicular tuberculosis is a very unusual form, We report a rare case of unilateral testicular tuberculosis that manifested as orchi-epididymitis. The main treatment for urogenital tuberculosis is antituberculosis therapy, possibly combined with surgery.

Testicular metastasis of urothelial carcinoma simulating testicular cancer: A rare case report.

Metastatic cancers of the testis are rare. Metastatic disease in the testis from urothelial carcinoma is extremely rare. Usually, metastatic testicular cancers are from primitive prostate, lung, and gastrointestinal tumors. Testicular metastases from urothelial carcinoma should be suspected in patients with hematuria and testicular swelling.

Massive bilateral polycystic kidneys, successful treatment with embolization and nephrectomy: A case report.

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a genetic disorder characterized by the formation of multiple cysts in the kidneys. We present a case of a 47-year-old male with PKD on dialysis who underwent bilateral renal artery embolization followed by bilateral nephrectomy via a median incision. The specimen weight was 5 kg for the left kidney and 8 kg for the right one. Renal artery embolization can be a useful tool in managing polycystic kidney disease in cases where nephrectomy is indicated. This case highlights the importance of timely intervention and the role of minimally invasive techniques in managing this rare condition.

Acute abdomen revealing giant inguinoscrotal bladder hernia.

Inguinal bladder hernia is a very rare clinical form, representing 1-4% of inguinal hernias. More than 90% of cases are discovered intraoperatively, with iatrogenic bladder injury occurring in 16% of cases. We report the case of a 67-year-old patient with a history of left inguinal hernia, who presented with a strangulated inguinoscrotal hernia with a tense bursa, painful spontaneously and irreducible to palpation. The abdominopelvic CT scan revealed a giant inguinoscrotal bladder hernia. The bladder resection for a necrosis portion was indicated. This case presents interesting considerations and potential pitfalls when evaluating a patient with an inguinal hernia.

Ureteral Endometriosis Presenting As Left Ureteral Obstruction: A Case Report.

Ureteral endometriosis is a very rare but serious form of infiltrating endometriosis since the risk of urinary tract obstruction and secondary loss of renal function exists. Although not always possible, the clinical and radiologic assessment may help in obtaining a preoperative diagnosis. We report the case of a 42-year-old woman with left ureteral endometriosis, revealed by left flank pain. Imaging revealed left obstructive uropathy with an endometriotic cyst of the left ovary and a spiculated lesion of the left parametrium. She underwent laparotomy, resection of the diseased ureter with primary re-anastomosis, resection of a left parametrial lesion and an endometriotic left ovarian cystectomy. The pathological assessment confirmed the diagnosis of ureteral endometriosis. Follow-up of the patient showed complete resolution with a stable, normal kidney function. In conclusion, ureteral endometriosis involvement is infrequent but should be included in the differential diagnosis in a premenopausal woman with ureteral obstruction of unknown cause. An early diagnosis and obstruction relief are critical to a successful outcome.

Penile Squamous Cell Carcinoma in a 95-Year-Old Patient: Case Report and Literature Review.

Penile cancer is a rare disease. Delay in diagnosis and treatment frequently occurs and high morbidity can be observed in affected patients. The management is based on surgical resection. The inguinal node staging depends on the disease-related risk. We herein report a 95-year-old male patient, with a history of a right inguinal hernia, surgically treated. He presented with a swollen painful glans penis. The glans biopsy identified a moderately differentiated invasive squamous cell carcinoma. We have performed a complete penectomy with a bilateral inguinal lymph node dissection. The patient is currently receiving adjuvant chemotherapy based on cisplatin.

A Giant Solitary Adrenal Plasmacytoma in a Patient with HIV: A Rare Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) involving the adrenal gland is an extremely rare malignancy. We report a case of a solitary adrenal plasmacytoma in an HIV-positive 50-year-old woman on antiretroviral therapy who presented with a rapidly progressing lumbar left masse. A CT scan objectified a locally advanced left adrenal mass measuring 135mm long axis. A biopsy was taken, and the histopathology with the immunohistochemical study objectified an adrenal gland plasmacytoma. The skeletal survey and the sternal suction biopsy did not show any abnormalities. The diagnosis of a solitary EMP of the adrenal gland was made. There are only 10 cases of solitary adrenal plasmacytoma with only one case associated with an HIV-positive patient reported in the literature. Therefore, this paper is aimed at presenting the second case of an HIV-positive patient diagnosed with solitary adrenal plasmacytoma.

Subcapsular hematoma of the kidney after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy: A rare complication.

extracorporeal shock wave (ESLW) is a common and relatively safe procedure, with a high success rate and low side effects. its complications are limited to the kidneys and always disappear spontaneously. Acute pain is the only manifestation of kidney hematoma and should be explored. Conservative treatment is generally the treatment of choice. We reported the case of a 60-year-old man who underwent extracorporeal lithotripsy, 4 h after the procedure, he was presented to the emergency with severe abdominal pain, and a CT scan showed a hematoma of the left kidney. Conservative treatment was performed, and the patient was discharged at home in 48h.

Renal cell carcinoma revealed by sternal tumefaction: A rare case report and literature review.

Usual location of metastasis are in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) the lung, liver, bone, adrenal and brain. Here we report on an unusual case of a 76-year-old male with a solitary sternal metastasis as an initial presentation of clear-cell RCC. The management of metastatic kidney cancer has been disrupted over the last decade by the emergence of new treatments and the progress of surgery and ablative techniques. the Carmena study suggests that sunitinib alone is not inferior to the NCR followed by sunitinib, the patient has therefore been transferred to oncology for medical treatment (targeted therapy).

Enterovesical fistula secondary to transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder in a 20 years old patient: A rare entity.

Bladder cancers are not very common in young people under 20 years, especially with an atypical presentation such as faecaluria due to enterovesical fistula. This report describes the case of a 20 years old man who was diagnosed with a mass involving the small intestine and bladder during the course of investigations for faecaluria and abdominal pain. Histopathological examination of the biopsies during cystoscopy revealed: muscle invasive transitional cell carcinoma, while the computerized tomography scan had confirmed the enterovesical fistula. The patient was traited by Radical cystectomy with extended pelvic lymph node dissection and ileocecal resection as ultimate curative treatment.
