ABSTRACT
Hemangiopericytoma of the kidney is extremely rare, which is very much resembled a renal cell carcinoma. It tends to grow slowly but occasionally had demonstrated rapid infiltration and distant metastasis. The incidence and degree of its malignancy appears to be low. Herein we report a case of hemangiopericytoma which was developed from left kidney in 42 old man and treated with radical nephrectomy.

The ureteral fistula is the most common urologic complication and it usually occurs within the first 3 weeks after renal transplantation. The dominant cause is damage to the arterial supply of the transplanted ureter by close dissection at time of donor nephrectomy. The signs and symptoms of ureteral fistula can mimmic acute rejection, which is oliguria, anuria, fever, wound tenderness, swelling and decreased renal function. It was well established that open intervention was standardized for such problem. Recently nonoperative percutaneous approaches to the placement of stents and tubes are used. Herein we report a case of ureteral fistula, misdiagnosed as acute rejection after renal transplantation, which was healed with Silastic drain insertion in a 22-year-old male recipient.

Failure in the formation of a hymeneal orifice is a rare congenital malformation. There are many cases of imperforated hymen with hematocolpos in literature. However this condition associated with obstructive uropathy such as acute urinary retention is rare. We experienced a case of imperforated hymen with hematocolpos which caused acute urinary retention in a 16-year-old girl. Herein we report this case with brief review of literature.
