RESUMEN
Tubular ectasia of the rete testis (TERT) presents as multiple cystic structures within the rete testis, often incidentally detected on ultrasound as echo-free intratesticular cystic lesions. Despite its benign nature, assessing testicular cystic lesions can sometimes be challenging. The primary importance of identifying this uncommon condition lies in its distinction from cystic testicular malignancies and thus avoiding further radical procedures. We report an instance of TERT within the right testis discovered incidentally in a patient with a medical background of epididymitis, presenting for management of left testis cryptorchidism, and bilateral inguinal hernia.
RESUMEN
Peritoneal fistulization of pyonephrosis is an uncommon condition, leading to a generalized peritonitis, considered as extreme life-threatening emergency. Secondary to an obstructive uropathy, increasing intra-renal pressure. In most cases, ureteral stones represent the underlying causes followed by stenosis, tumor, or connective tissue disease. Through this case report, we present a 60-year-old patient with a history of urolithiasis, admitted for an atypical instance of spontaneous renal pelvis rupture in an ectopic right kidney managed surgically. This case emphasizes the importance of considering renal etiology in cases of peritonitis and underscores the rarity of such occurrences.
RESUMEN
Priapism is a rare condition in paediatrics. Although its association with scorpion envenomation has been documented, cases involving an associated penile haematoma are extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, we hereby present the first documented case of this unique association in a nine-year-old boy following a scorpion sting. The purpose of this observation is to discuss the diagnostic difficulties, management strategies, and possible mechanisms associated with this unusual manifestation, and to highlight the importance of prompt recognition and appropriate management of priapism and penile haematoma in children, particularly those living in areas where scorpion stings are endemic.
