The Page kidney is a recognized cause hypertension. Post-traumatic subcapsular hematoma is the most common clinical counterpart to the Page`s experimental model of parenchymal compression. We herein report a case of the Page kidney resulting from massive bilateral subcapsular hematoma

We reviewed 28 pts. with testicular tumors admitted to the department of urology, Catholic medical college during last 12 yrs. The results are summarized as follows; 1. Age distribution ranged from 4 months to 59 years old, showing the highest incidence below 10 yrs old (39%). 2. There were 28 cases of testis tumor, and all cases were germ cell tumors which consisted of 9 cases of seminoma, 10 cases of teratoma, 5 cases of embryonal carcinoma, 2 cases of teratocarcinoma. 1 case of seminoma and embryonal carcinoma, and 1 case of choriocarcinoma and seminoma. 3. Serum HCG and AFP were evaluated in 13 cases. All seminoma and teratoma, 1 case of seminoma and embryonal ca. ranged within normal limit. But, among 4 cases of embryonal ca. 2 had elevated serum HCG, and 3 had elevated serum AFP. 1 case of teratocarcinoma and 1 case of seminoma and teratoma had elevated serum AFP and HCG. 4 The clinical stage was A in 21, B in 6, C in 3. 5. Radical orchiectomy was done in all cases, and retroperitoneal lymph node dissection was given for 9 cases. Radiation therapy and chemotherapy with PVB regimen were performed in 10 and 3 cases. 6. On 12 cases follow up study was made. Of them 3 (1 of teratocarcinoma, 1 of embryonal carcinoma, 1 of seminoma and embryonal carcinoma) in stage C were died at 3.3 yrs, 1.2 yrs and 15 days after orchiectomy. And 1 case(teratocarcinoma) in stage A were died at 1.5 yrs. after orchiectomy due to pulmonary metastasis. Remaining 8 cases are alive without evidence of relapse for mean follow up 39.7 months.

Retroperitoneal liposarcoma comprises 12 to 45 percent of all liposarcoma. It has been a therapeutic dilemma and a less prognosis because of its tendency to attain a tremendous size due to early silent growth and difficult wide en bloc excision in the retroperitoneum. Here in we report a case of retroperitoneal liposarcoma in 51 year old male patient with a brief review of the literatures.
