Penectomy to manage penile gangrene caused by calciphylaxis, a case report.

Penile calciphylaxis is a condition associated with end stage renal disease that presents a diagnostic and management challenge. We present a case of a 43 year old male with end stage renal disease on dialysis who was managed by partial penectomy and survived 19 months post operatively. We discuss the available management options as well as the prognosis and outcomes of the condition while advocating for a patient tailored management plan.

Periurethral abscess associated with deep dorsal vein thrombosis in a young male with cystolithiasis.

A case of periurethral abscess with an underlying deep dorsal vein thrombosis in a 35- year-old-male with a large bladder calculus is reported. The patient received antibiotics, a topical heparinoid, and underwent open cystolithotomy. The abscess drained spontaneously as the patient refused surgical intervention. He recovered with no penile deformity and maintained erectile function at 6 months from discharge.
