Adrenalectomy was performed in 13 cases of adrenal tumor admitted to the department of urology during the period from 1977 to 1988. The patients comprised 7 patients with Cushing's syndrome. 1 patient with primary aldosteronism and 5 patients with pheochromocytoma. All surgical approaches were provided transperitoneally including subcostal incision in 9 cases, midline abdominal incision in 3 cases and thoracoabdominal incision in 1 case. 2 cases of pheochromocytoma and 1 case of Cushirig's syndrome, of which masses weighed over 700g and had severe adhesion to the kidney, underwent either additional nephrectomy or partial nephrectomy along with adrenalectomy. Postoperative hospital stay ranged between 7 and 17 days. Hormonal assay done on 1 day to 1 week postoperatively revealed normal or subnormal value.

Traumatic amputation of a penis is an unusual injury. Amputation of the penis occurs most commonly as an act of self-emasculation, but has also been reported as resulting from assaults or accidental dismemberments. We report a case of successful clinical replantation of an amputated penis resulting from assaults by using a microvascular surgery.

Transrectal ultrasonography was done in 14 healthy men and 52 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia to demonstrate the pathomorphology of the prostate and to determine the preoperative prostatic size. We found that the transrectal ultrasonographic examination allowed for an accurate estimation of the prostatic size. The following results were obtained. 1. The average values of anterioposterior, transverse and longitudinal diameter were 2.45+/-0.49 cm. 4.12+/-0.69 cm and 3.39+/-0.42 cm in control group and 3.37+/-1.06 cm. 5.07+/-0.71 cm and 4.46+/-0.84 cm in BPH. 2. The average weight of the prostate was 20.07+/-5.15 gm in control group and 47.02+/-25.81 gm in BPH. 3. In patients treated with transurethral resection of the prostate the mean estimated weight was 36.0 gm while the mean actual resection weight was 11.4 gm The difference between these 2 values was 24.6 gm. 4. In patients treated with open prostatectomy the mean estimated weight was 78.8 gm, while the mean actual resection weight was 48.7gm. The difference between these 2 values was 30.1 gm.
