ABSTRACT
A man's self-esteem can be influenced by his external genitalia. If a man perceives his penis as inadequate size, whether real or imagined, such feelings invade his sexual activities. Most patients seek increased thickness and length to improve appearance during intercourse. Many men want to enlarge their penes despite of normal function or above average size. Dermal fat graft is extracted from a patient and penile augmentation with it is highly satisfactory since the amount of dermal fat graft absorption to the body itself is pretty low and rare cases of complication, and its natural appearance of penis without physical comfort. The most common complications after dermal grafting are penile skin edema and erythema. Sebaceous glands usually disappear within 2 weeks and hair follicles generally within 2 months. We report our experience with the evaluation and management of patient who present with uncommon penile cutaneous fistula after penile augmentation with dermal fat grafting.

Leiomyosarcoma of the penis is a very rare tumor. We experienced a patient with a leiomyosarcoma on the dorsal surface of penis in a 44-year old man. The patient was treated with local wide excision with Nd: YAG laser and chemotherapy. Herein, we report this case with the review of literatures.

Hydroceles presenting in ten patients were treated by aspiration and injection of 2.5% phenol solution. In five patients, single treatment was sufficient, while four patients required two repeat treatments and one patient had three injection. Nevertheless all patients were satisfied. During injection and follow-up period, notable complication or side effect was not developed. As a result. we reported that sclerotherapy with 2.5% phenol for hydroceles is a highly effective, painless. safe and economical procedure and an attractive alternative to an operation particularly in elderly patient that hopes to avoid an operation, anesthesia and hospitalization.

Eosinophilic cystitis is an uncommon inflammatory process seen in children and adult which was recognized in 1960. The disease is similar to interstitial cystitis. tuberculosis and bladder neoplasms in the clinical manifestations and should be differentiated from them. We herein report a case of eosinophilic cystitis in a 60-year-old woman which was confused. with bladder carcinoma with brief review of the literatures.

The urachus is a vestigial structure extending from the apex of the bladder to the umbilicus. Embryololigically, the urachus becomes obliterated during the third month of fetal life, but incomplete regression of the urachus results in anomalies. Urachal anomalies are very rare and present with varied appearances, one of which is vesicourachal diverticulum. Recently, we experienced a case of vesicourachal diverticulum complained of recurrent urinary tract infection in 13 month old male. Embryology, classification, clinical presentation, diagnostic modalities and treatment of urachal anomalies are reviewed.

The omentum is unique in that it is the body tissue specially developed for the resolution of local inflammatory processes because of combination of its blood supply and abundant lymphatic drainage. So, the use of omental pedicle graft is well established for the more complex repairs and reconstruction of the urinary tract. From March, 1982 to February, 1988, we have experienced twelve cases of the urinary tract repairs or reconstruction using omental pedicle graft, which include six cases of multiple renal laceration, two cases of renal staghorn calculi and four cases of complicated vesicovaginal fistula and the result were excellent.
