RESUMO

Key Clinical Message: The importance of urologists and pathologists being knowledgable about primary testicular hemangiomas and other benign adult testicular neoplasms, though rare, is crucial. Ensuring these professionals are well-versed in these conditions is vital in medicine. Testicular sparing surgery, especially when tumor markers are negative, is a common approach for patients with small or uncertain testicular masses. Abstract: The cause of the uncommon benign testicular tumor known as testicular capillary hemangioma is currently unclear. Children are shown to have a greater incidence than adults. Histopathological examination reveals a vascular tumor with a well-formed capillary lumina. The lesions are bordered by flattened endothelium and have lobulated clusters of closely spaced capillaries with an abundance of vascular gaps. These capillaries have anaplastic characteristics and lack mitotic activity. The patient, who was 24-year-old, came to the urology department complaining of severe testicular pain. He had no significant medical history. Clinical examination found a mass at the upper pole of the testicle. An ultrasonography Doppler study found a left varicocele that measured 3.5 mm in diameter, as well as a mass at the upper part of the left testicle. Pathologic examination confirmed the presence of a benign hemangioma with. Although rare, it is important for urologists and pathologists to be aware of primary testicular hemangiomas and other benign adult testicular neoplasms. Testicular sparing surgery has always been considered in patients with small or indeterminate testicular masses with negative tumor markers.

RESUMO

Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetically inherited disorder distinguished by the development of numerous benign neoplasms across multiple organ systems. Renal angiomyolipoma represents 0.3% of all primary renal tumors and are classified as benign mixed mesenchymal neoplasms. In this report, we reported the clinical presentation of a 28-year-old individual who was received by the department of urology. The patient was admitted presenting with asymptomatic, macroscopic hematuria that had been ongoing for a period of 10 days. Subsequent diagnostic evaluations revealed an association between the presenting urinary condition and tuberous sclerosis complex with a concurrent renal angiomyolipom.

RESUMO

Introduction: Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) is a group of inherited neuromuscular disorders that vary clinically and genetically. It is characterized by peripheral nerve damage, leading to muscle weakness and sensory loss. Case presentation: A 13-year-old male presented to the rheumatology department with bilateral hearing impairment since the age of 3 years, pes cavus, and difficulties walking. Some family members had Achilles tendon lengthening surgery. During physical examination, the patient had a shortened Achilles tendon, there are high arches in the feet, curled toes, loss of touch sensation in the feet, ankles, and legs, atrophy in the foot muscles. An eye examination revealed a discrepancy that needed glasses. Neurological findings included horizontal and vertical nystagmus, proprioception disorder, and demyelinating sensorimotor disorder diagnosed as CMT type 1. The audiogram showed bilateral sensorineural hearing impairment. MRI revealed spinal disc bulges. The treatment plan includes Achilles tendon lengthening surgery and physical therapy. Clinical discussion: CMT patients need to receive supportive treatment including physical therapy, hearing aids, and glasses, to help improve their quality of life. Conclusion: CMT disease is a genetic disorder that causes difficulties in movement, coordination, and daily activities due to muscle weakness and sensory impairments. In a few cases, patients have been documented to have bilateral hearing impairment as their first symptoms. It affects individuals in Syria and around the world, and requires proper diagnosis and treatment.

RESUMO

Key Clinical Message: In the context of lymphoma, it is of paramount importance to perform subsequent Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography (PET-CT) scans to ensure the comprehensive eradication of neoplasms. Abstract: Primary renal diffuse tumors constitute less than 1% of all renal neoplasms. Among these, diffuse renal large B-cell lymphoma is an exceedingly rare extranodal lymphoma. A 64-year-old male presented to the Department of Urology with complaints of persistent left flank discomfort for a duration of 2 weeks. Additionally, he reported generalized weakness, fatigue, and symptoms indicative of lower urinary tract obstruction, such as discomfort in the left testicle and dysuria. Ultrasound imaging revealed an echogenic structure with thickened, reactive walls and a turbid fluid core, located in the left flank, proximal to the lower pole of the kidney. This structure was subsequently identified as diffuse renal large B-cell lymphoma. For the diagnosis of large B-cell lymphomas, it is imperative that a proficient hematopathologist performs a comprehensive examination of the tumor tissue, preferably utilizing an excisional biopsy. The categorization of lymphoma requires specialized tests such as immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and molecular testing. In instances where a renal mass is detected, healthcare professionals should consider performing a biopsy. In lymphoma cases, follow-up Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography (PET-CT) scans are crucial to confirm the complete eradication of the tumor.
