ABSTRACT
Adrenal gland hemangioma is a very rare histologic entity belonging to the group of incidentalomas. It is often asymptomatic, unexpectedly detected during imaging examination and resulting from another abdominal affection. We here report a single case to further enrich international case series which are still very limited.

Solid pseudopapillary tumours of the pancreas are rare tumours of uncertain etiology which mostly affects young women. Their prognosis is good especially after complete resection. We report a new case of a young woman; abdominal pain revealed solid pseudopapillary tumour. The diagnosis is based on histological examination associated with immunohistochemistry of the piece of resection removed with caudal splenopancreatectomy.

We report the case of a patient with symptomatic seminal vesicle cyst on the right side. Imaging examinations (pelvic and endorectal ultrasound, abdominal-pelvic tomodensitometry and MRI) were perdormed and the patient underwent surgical removal of the cyst. In light of this case study, epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment options are discussed.

The partial substitution of the ureter using a pediculated double short segments of the ileum is a technique used to re-establish ureteral transit and preserve the renal unit, following the resection of extensive ureteral lesions. Standard surgical procedure for an ileoureteroplasty consists of isolating an ileal duct of equal or greater length than the ureteral defect and interposing it in the urinary tract in an isoperistaltic direction. Monti described a surgical technique that allows for the creation of catheterizable stomas in continent urinary diversions, using the Mitrofanoff principle. These passageways were created from one or several 2.5 cm long ileal sections by means of their detubulization and transverse retubulization.

Cavernous Hemangioma of the Bladder (CHB) is benign and rare lesions. Clinical presentation has no pathognomonic signs although gross painless hematuria is the most frequent complain. CHB is suspected by cystoscopy and radiologic findings and confirmed by pathologic examinations. Management is controversial due to the bleeding risk of this highly vascularized lesion. Partial cystectomy is the treatment of choice for surgically accessible lesions. However, it appears that small lesions could be treated using transurethral resection. Since CHB is a rare case, we report another case treated successfully with a partial cystectomy associated with an augmentation cystoplasy.
