RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: We report on a patient with an increase in testicular size that had been initially diagnosed as neoplasm. METHODS: The ultrasound and histological findings, the atypical clinical features and possible causes are analyzed. RESULTS: Segmental infarction with diffuse testicular atrophy. CONCLUSION: Infarction of testis may atypically present as a testicular mass that may lead us to suspect a testicular neoplasm since the age of presentation of both types of lesions are similar.

Ureteral iatrogenic lesions occur with variable frequency in the different types of surgery, mainly in uncomplicated abdominal hysterectomy. This paper contributes 29 patients (2 male and 27 female) with several types of lesions, secondary to gynaecological, intestinal and vascular surgery. The series produced 16 cases of clamping, 6 ureterovaginal fistulae, 6 ureteral sections (5 total and 1 partial) and 1 ureterouterine fistula. The terminal ureter was the most frequently damaged. The diagnostic and therapeutical methods used in this type of lesions are analyzed.
