RESUMO
Las infecciones urinarias complicadas, dentro de las cuales se encuentran las asociadas a catéteres, son un hallazgo frecuente de la práctica clínica. Las complicaciones infecciosas después de los procedimientos urológicos son una fuente importante de morbimortalidad y consumen múltiples recursos sanitarios. La colonización bacteriana en el catéter ureteral juega un papel esencial en la patogénesis de la infección, y el uso de profilaxis antimicrobiana en urología es controvertido. El objetivo de nuestro trabajo fue evaluar la utilidad de la profilaxis antibiótica en la extracción del catéter doble J

Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a multisystemic disease that is characterized by the presence of necrotizing vasculitis of small and medium-sized blood vessels. Genital compromise is rare. Our patient presented a systemic disease associated to genital signs (penis and scrotum skin necrosis). A bilateral testicular and glans biopsy was performed and with PAN diagnosis, immunosuppressives treatment was realised for 6 weeks, with favorable progress.
