The Effect of the Direct Injection of Fosfomycin Sodium into Prostate in Chronic bacterial Prostatitis / 대한비뇨기과학회지

Seventeen patients were treated for chronic bacterial prostitis by an injection of 2 gm fosfomycin sodium via perineal route directly into the prostate. Cure rate was 70% of the seven patients who allowed follow-up study at six months after Treatment with one injection. The pain, discomfortness, hematuria and hemospermia were improved except one case. Results demonstrated that direct injection into the prostate offers a new alternative method in the treatment of chronic bacterial prostatitis.

A Case of Congenital Renal Arteriovenous Malformation / 대한비뇨기과학회지

Congenital renal arteriovenous malformation is a rare lesion. Nephrectomy or partial nephrectomy is a well-known treatment and as alternative method, transcatheter embolization therapy has been developed. We report a case of congenital arteriovenous malformation manifested by intermittent right flank pain and gross hematuria with blood clots, cured by means of transcatheter embolization therapy during angiographic study with polyvinyl alcohol foam (IVALON).

Vaginal Stone Associated with Vesico-Vaginal Fistula: Report of a Case / 대한비뇨기과학회지

The vaginal stone associated with vesico-vaginal fistula is quite rare and its cause, frequency, composition and others are poorly understood. We report a case of huge vaginal stone associated with vesico-vaginal fistula in 57 years old woman. considering of the possible causes of stone formation in the vagina and its composition, prevention, treatment complication and others. A stone, 6 x 7 x 5cm in size, was removed by litholapaxy. The stone was composed of uric acid, magnesium ammonium phosphate and carbonate appetite.

Carcinoma of the Urethra in Male: Report of a Case / 대한비뇨기과학회지

Primary carcinoma of the urethra is quite rare. The causes of the disease are poorly understood. It is the only urologic malignancy. known to be less common in males than females, despite of the greater length and complexity of the urethra in the male. We report a case of carcinoma of the urethra in 81 years old male patient.

Histochemical Study on the Differentiation of Metanephros in Albino Rats / 대한비뇨기과학회지

Development and differentiation of mammalian kidney has been studied by many investigators. Hitreto, it has been known that a high vertebrate`s kidney was differentiated from as a metanephros. As a result of the study of most investigators on developmental processes of metanephros in man and rodents, they insisted that morphological development and differentiation of nephrons and collecting ducts should occur in the latter one quarter period of the fetal ages. But the initiation and completion time of renal function following its morphological development and differentiation have not been investigated perfectly. The author has determined the relationships of morphological and functional development of kidney were able to be revealed the studies of hydrolyzing phosphatase activities on the developing renal tissues. Therefore, in order to investigate the phosphatase activities of renal tissue following the development and differentiation of rate kidney, after interbreeding of healthy rats, fetuses of the 15th, 17th, 19th and newborns of the 1st, 4th, 7th and 10th day were sacrificed and were resected renal tissues. Histological preparations were prepared by way of hematoxylin and eosin stain for morphological changes of rat renal tissues, and Gomori's method(1941) for the detection of the activities of alkaline phosphatase, Gomori's method(1939) for the detection of the activities of acid phosphatase and Wachstein and Meisel's method(1957) for the detection of activities of ATPase were used, respectively. All of the preparations were observed with light microscope. The results were as follows; 1. The early differentiation of rat kidney began with glomerulus formation at the 17th day of fetal age and morphological development was completed at the 21th day of fetal age, and lobulation of kidney was observed at the 7th day of neonatal age. 2. In the fetal kidney of the 17th day, alkaline phosphatase activities were observed initially in the proximal tubules surrounding glomeruli in the cortico-medullary Junction, and the activities were increased at the 17th day of fetus. At the 21th day of fetus, the strength of the enzyme activity was increased at the same time as renal tubule which showed alkaline phosphatase activity was increased in the cortex. In the each newborn kidney, the enzyme activities were continuously increased in the proximal tubules at the 1st, 4th, 7th and 10th day of newborns. The renal corpuscle and ascending straight tubule of the Henle's loop showed trace activities. 3. Acid phosphatase activity was shown at renal tubules and glomeruli during the fetal age after the 17th day of fetus, and moderate reaction of the enzyme was shown in the renal tubules, glomeruli, medullary rays and Henle's loops after birth. 4. Adenosine triphosphatase showed moderate reaction in the glomerulus at the 17th day and 19th day of fetus, and strong reaction was shown at the 21th day of fetus, and the ATPase activities of medullary rays showed trace reaction after birth. According to the beginning and change of the enzyme activity as mentioned above, it was supposed that the development of rat kidney should begin at the 17th day of fetus. In the 21th day of fetus, diuresis and resorption were accomplished mostly in the glomerulus and proximal tubule, and resorpt. ion of the Henle's loop began just before and after the birth.

Carcinosarcoma of Bladder: Report of a Case / 대한비뇨기과학회지

Carcinosarcoma is a tumor compromised of malignant epithelial and mesenchymal elements It is a well known uterine malignancy but is seen very rarely in the bladder. We report a case of carcinosarcoma of the bladder in 49 year-old male.

Two cases of Congenital Incomplete Double Urethra / 대한비뇨기과학회지

Double urethra is a very rare congenital disease. We observed and treated two cases of incomplete double urethra, one had ventral opening and stones, the other had subscrotal opening. And report with review of literatures.

The A.B.O. Blood Groups in Tumors of the Genitourinary Tract Among Korean / 대한비뇨기과학회지

A statistical observation of the relation of the distribution between the distribution of A.B.O groups and incidence of genitourinary tract tumors was made on 696 in-patients- one of the which was 123 from may, 1972 to January 1980 at Han Yang University Hospital, the other was 575 from January, 1970 to December, 1979 at S.N.U.H and Severance Hospital. The following results were obtained. 1. In the distribution of blood types, the occurrence of genitourinary tract tumors (exclude female reproductive system) was high among the patients with blood type A, but low in O. 2. The occurrence of urinary tract tumors was high in patients with blood type A, but low in O. 3. The occurrence male genital tract tumors was high in the patient with blood type A. 4. In each organs, the statistical significance was not noticed, except male bladder tumor.
