ABSTRACT
Urethral catheterization is a common procedure, but it is associated with a number of complications. Iatrogenic hypospadias can rarely occur. There is a limited literature dedicated to this condition. We report a young patient with COVID-19 with iatrogenic hypospadias of grade 3. He was undergone to a two-stage procedure with acceptable outcome. Surgical repair should be offered and performed for young patients to ensure good function with acceptable penile appearance. A surgical treatment will improve psychological, sexual and social outcomes.

An elderly man was treated for severe acute scrotum pain with centesis. We report the diagnosis, underlying causes and management, and discuss the procedure. Centesis is performed rarely, but could be undertaken more often given the added benefits.

Spontaneous urinary bladder rupture is a rare condition. Radiotherapy treatment for malignancy of a pelvic organ such as cervix or prostate is one cause of this condition. We report a case of a 71-year-old woman who presented with this illness 30 years after radiotherapy treatment.

We present a rare case of leiomyoma of the urinary bladder that was diagnosed during pregnancy. The case of a 29-year-old woman primigravida at 13 weeks of pregnancy who presented with 6 months history of abdominal swelling which was gradually increasing in size. Computed tomography done revealed a large heterogenous mass(enhancing) with an area of non-enhancing (necrosis) suggestive of malignant ovarian tumor. The histological findings of the surgical specimen confirmed a leiomyoma of the urinary bladder. The clinical presentation, imaging findings, and management of this relatively rare benign tumor are discussed in this case report.

We discuss a 48-year old, who presented with upper epigastrium pain associated with early satiety and significant weight loss. Physical examination revealed a thickening and darkening of skins around the skin folds, scalp, back and front of abdomen. A diagnosis of gastro-esophageal junction adenocarcinoma was confirmed by oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (OGDS) and biopsy. The biopsy of the skin lesion revealed a diagnosis of acanthosis nigricans, He underwent a total gastrectomy followed by adjuvant chemo-radiotherapy. Recovery is unremarkable. Interestingly, the skin lesions disappear following our therapy. We believe this may be attributed to the treatment of the malignancy. We highlight the interesting association, pathophysiology and therapy.
