ABSTRACT

Fibrous pseudo tumor of the tunica vaginalis is a rare lesion affecting men representing a challenge in its diagnosis and treatment. We reported the case of a 17 year old male patient who presented for a right scrotal mass. Surgical resection of the mass was performed and the histological diagnosis was a fibrous pseudo tumor of the tunica vaginalis. It is usually affecting men in the third decade and the fear is to miss its main differential diagnosis which is testicular cancer. Studies should give more concern to this entity, so that we can avoid unnecessary orchiectomy.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Once mostly discovered on autopsy, adrenal myelolipomas are now increasingly diagnosed due to the frequent use of modern imaging methods. However, bilaterality remains quite rare. We present the case of a 31 years old female patient treated in our department for a bilateral adrenal myelolipoma which revealed an unknown peripheral adrenal insufficiency. CASE PRESENTATION: We describe the case of a 31-year-old woman in apparent good health with no medical history who was explored for recurrent right lumbar pain by a computed tomography scanner which showed a large right adrenal mass and a smaller lesion in the left adrenal gland. Preoperative biology revealed an unknown peripheral adrenal insufficiency. Right open sub-costal adrenalectomy was performed, Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of bilateral adrenal myelolipomas and radiological surveillance was planned for the left tumor. DISCUSSION: Adrenal myelolipoma (AML) is a rare, benign and typically non-functional tumor of the adrenal gland, usually unilateral and asymptomatic, incidentally detected on CT. Commonly diagnosed between the fifth and seventh decades of life. It can affect both sexes our patient is a 31-year-old female and presented with bilateral AML. Unlike previous reported cases, our patient has a previously unknown peripheral adrenal insufficiency, which could be incriminated in the development of his bilateral adrenal myelolipomas. The optimal management depends on both clinical presentation and tumor characteristics. CONCLUSION: Adrenal myelolipoma is a rare tumor. Endocrinological investigation should be performed to detect and treat endocrine disorders. The therapeutic attitude depends on tumor size complications and clinical complaints. METHODS: This is a case report from our urology department, and has been reported in line with the SCARE criteria.

ABSTRACT

Duplication of the ureters with distal, supra-sphincteric, prostatic implantation is an uncommon congenital anomaly. We report a case of a 35 year-old men presenting with pelvic pain with lower urinary tract symptoms for at least 3 months duration. On magnetic resonance urograms double collecting system in the left kidney and also hydro-uretero-nephrosis in the collecting system which drained the upper pole of the left kidney were seen. The ureter draining the upper pole of the left kidney was seen to open into the prostatic utricle with an ureterocele and multiple stones. Left ureteroneocystostomy was performed.
