RESUMEN
Adenomatoid tumors are benign para-testicular tumors and account for about 30% of all paratesticular neoplasms in males. The most common presentation is scrotal swelling between the third and fifth decades. We reported an epididymal adenomatoid tumor in a 28-year-old patient.
RESUMEN
Penile augmentation with silicone is utilized to achieve higher self-esteem and penile shape satisfaction in men concerned about their penile size. This intervention may be complicated with a penile abscess, which is most caused by Staphylococcus aureus. The optimal management options are abscess drainage, removal of the subcutaneous nodule, and excision of the skin with two-stage penile reconstructions. Our case is a rare presentation of penile abscess after 15 years of silicone injection.
RESUMEN
Calciphylaxis or calcific uremic arteriolopathy (CUA) is a potentially life-threatening vasculopathy involving the skin and subcutaneous tissues. It is usually associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and rarely with acute renal failure or predialysis patients. The clinical diagnosis of calcific uremic arteriolopathy relies on high index of suspicion. CUA is commonly associated with secondary hyperparathyroidism and high serum calcium and phosphate products. Moreover, using biopsy as a diagnostic tool is controversial, due to the high risk of poor wound healing and sepsis. Radiological studies usually reveal extensive calcification of branching vessels such as penile arteries, eventually leading to gangrene formation in extremities and penis. Histopathological analysis confirms the diagnosis of calcific uremic arteriolopathy and rules out the presence of malignancy. CUA is a systematic disease that involves multiple organs, and to the best of our knowledge this is the first reported case involving the penis, bladder, and eyes.
