Paget disease of the male nipple.

Breast cancer occurring in the mammary gland of men is infrequent. It accounts for 0.8% of all breast cancers, which is less than one per cent of all newly diagnosed male cancers and 0.2% of male cancer deaths. However, Paget disease of the male nipple is extremely rare. We report a single case of Paget disease with infiltrative ductal carcinoma of the breast in a 61-year-old man.

[Giant epithelioid hemangioma of the hand]. / Hémangiome épithélioïde géant de la main.

Epithelioid vascular tumors are a heterogeneous group characterized by epithelioid-appearing endothelial cells. Included are benign vascular tumors (epithelioid haemangioma), borderline tumors (epithelioid haemangioendothelioma), and malignant tumors (epithelioid angiosarcoma). We describe a case of epithelioid haemangioma.

[Post-radiotherapy ureterovaginal fistula. 12 case reports]. / Fistules urétérovaginales post-radiques. A propos de 12 cas.

The authors report a series of 12 cases of ureterovaginal fistulas observed over 15 years period. Our patients had a mean age of 38 years (range 27 to 44 years old). Eighty four percent of ureterovaginal fistulas were due to radiotherapy and clopohysterectomy. Sixteen percent of ureterovaginal fistulas were due to brachy and radiotherapy. The clinical features were dominated by urine leak via the vagina with persistent micturition. Intravenous urography confirmed the diagnosis and revealed ureterohydronephrosis. Various therapeutic methods were used, in 7 patients treatment consisted of end-to-end anastomosis. We have used ureterovesical reimplantation in 3 cases and double J sent in 2 cases. The course was favourable in 84%.

[Kidney cancer: report of 47 cases]. / Cancer du rein: à propos de 47 cas.

The authors report a series of 47 cases observed over a 15-years period in the department of carcinological at the national oncological institute of Rabat. Patients consisted of 16 mean and 21 women (57%), with a mean age of 49 years old (range 29 to 70 years). The clinical features were polymorph, firstly loin pain (81%), hematuria is the next (25%). A lumbar mass (10%). The diagnosis was established by ultra-sonography and CT-scan in all the patients. The mean tumour diameter was 10 cm (5-17 cm), it were located in down pole in 53%. The surgical procedure consisted of radical nephrectomy and regional or hailer lymph node dissection in 46 patients. The post operative course was marked by one death due to pulmonary metastases. The mean follow-up was (2 to 15 years). Asynchronies metastases occurred in 6 patients after a mean interval (9 to 36 months). The overall 5 year survival was 100% PT1, 78% PT2, 34% PT3.

[Association of ovarian juvenile granulosa cell tumor with Maffucci's syndrome]. / Association d'une tumeur ovarienne de la granulosa juvénile à un syndrome de Maffucci.

The authors report a rare case of the ovarian juvenile granulosa cell tumor associated with Maffucci's syndrome (enchondromathosis + hemangiomas), no heriditary mesodermal dysplasia. Sarcomatous changes of chondromas are encountered most frequently; however other various typed neoplasma have been reported: ovarian juvenile granulosa cell tumor may occur not infrequently in female patients with Maffucci's syndrome in the first or second decades. Sarcomatous changes of choromas established prognosis of the Maffucci's syndrome.

[Leiomyosarcoma of the vagina: a rare case]. / Le léiomyosarcome du vagin: une observation rare.

Vaginal leiomyosarcoma is unfrequent. We report on a case in a 50-year-old multipara patient who had presented a posterior vaginal swelling since 6 months. The tumor was discovered at the occasion of pains and non hemorragic discharge. The histological pattern of the tumor was well-differentiated spindle cell sarcoma with pleiomorphic areas. The immunohistochemistry confirmed the smooth myogenic differentiation. The treatment consisted of posterior pelvic exenteration extended to the vagina. The patient is alive and free of disease at 20 months of fellow-up.

[Spermatocytic seminoma. Apropos of a case and review of the literature]. / Le séminome spermatocytaire. A propos d'un cas et revue de la littérature.

We report a case of sperm cell seminoma caused by trauma. The data in the literature indicate the frequency is less than 5% of all seminomas. This case was exclusively located in the gonads and was a pure form. Orchidectomy with high ligature of the cord and adjuvant radiotherapy at the dose of 25 Gy centered on the para-aortic and subdiaphragmatic chains is adequate treatment. When inguinoscrotal surgery is performed, this zone must be irradiated with 25 Gy. Prognosis is satisfactory: 5-year survival is 100% with this protocol.
