[Plasmacytoma of the testis: report of a case]. / Plasmocitoma de testículo: presentación de un caso.

We report on a case of testicular plasmacytoma in a patient with multiple myeloma (MM), who is currently in a state of remission following chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The literature is reviewed, and testicular involvement in plasma cell neoplasms is discussed.

[Statistics of urological infections in the hospital environment]. / Estudio estadistico de las infecciones urológicas en el ambito hospitalario.

A review is made of the clinical histories of 1,821 patients admitted to our Department for treatment over a three-year-period and on the basis of the data compiled, the doctors have made a statistical study of urinary infections, by determining the type of germ, etiology of the process and level of sensitivity to the different antibiotics and chemiotherapeutic drugs and by analysing, at the same time, the inference between the different parameters considered. Of the results presented, they stress that the practical erradication of E. coli as an infecting agent in our medium, is significant, as well as the probable existence of an epidemiological cycle lasting for periods of twenty one months although this has still to be confirmed by means of longer chronological series.

[Advance in the immunologic study of urologic neoplasms]. / Avance en el estudio inmunológico de las neoplasias urológicas.

The reduction of the levels of circulating T lymphocytes in urological neoplasias seems obvious. The existence of a link between the different, neoplastic, bladder and prostate processes, as well as the degree of malignancy, prognosis and therapeutic response has still to be established, according to the immunitary state of the patients. The constant developing and refining of the immunological technology will no doubt serve to resolve these problems.
