Tuberculosis is very much prevalent in developing countries like India. Genito-urinary tuberculosis usually occurs after 5 to 15 years of the primary lung infection. After lymph node involvement,it is the second common form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. In this retrospective study, case records of 67 patients diagnosed with genito-urinary tuberculosis in our institute were thoroughly reviewed regarding age, sex, the urogenital organ involved by tuberculosis,mode of diagnosis,and treatment given to the patients. Median age of the patients was 38.5 years, males were more commonly involved than females, kidney was the most common organ involved by tuberculosis followed by ureter and urinary bladder.HIV infection was present in a single patient who had developed tuberculous perinephric abscess. Most common mode of diagnosis was by histopathological examination of the organ involved. Hydronephrosis of the involved kidney with echogenic debris in the dilated pelvicalyceal system on ultrasonography and non-visualised kidney on intravenous urogram was the most common findings on imaging studies who underwent nephrectomy. One patient was seen with tuberculosis of the glans penis which is not much common. Surgical intervention was ablative in nature in most of the cases in the form of nephrectomy. Early diagnosis is important and can prevent the anatomical defor- mity and loss of function of the involved organ.

Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis is an uncommon disorder of the kidney that is characterised by chronic inflammation and extensive destruction of the involved kidney usually associated with renal calculus and obstruction. It commonly involves the middle aged people with an increased incidence among females and diabetic population. Confirmed diagnosis can be done only after histopathological examination of the diseased nephrectomy specimen. So early suspicion and timely intervention is important to reduce the morbidity. In this retrospective study, we analysed the case records of all patients diagnosed with xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis in our institute over a period of 11 years. A total 18 patients were treated and diagnosed with xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis from January 2002 to December 2012. Among them 13 were female and 5 male. Most common clinical presentation was flank pain, fever, dysuria and weight loss. Left kidney was affected in 15 cases and right kidney in 3 cases. All patients were having urinary calculus causing obstruction to the pelvicalyceal system of the kidney. Only 2 patients were diabetic. Urine culture was sterile in all patients. All patients were treated with antibiotics, other supportive measures pre-operatively and ultimate nephrectomy having good recovery. Early suspicion and prompt treatment is necessary in minimising morbidity and mortality from the condition.

Renal allograft rupture is defined as a renal laceration, which involves two or more surfaces of the graft and extends beyond renal capsule with or without involvement of the collecting system. Acute and hyperacute rejections are the causes in most of the cases. Non-rejection aetiologies of graft rupture include acute tubular necrosis, renal vein thrombosis, ureteric obstruction, polyarteritis nodosa, ischaemia, hypertension and biopsy. Early detection of these causes is of prime importance for graft salvage. Here we report an uncommon case of spontaneous renal allograft rupture due to intrarenal ischaemia leading to infarction and hypertensive crisis.
