[Myxoid liposarcoma of the spermatic cord].

A case of myxoid paratesticular liposarcoma in a 68-year old patient is reported. The evolution was normal during the follow-up period (22 months). Scrotal liposarcoma is a rare tumour: less than 100 cases were reported in literature. The diagnosis is difficult, clinical and radiological signs are the same as those of any intrascrotal tumour. Orchidectomy is the usual treatment, prognosis depends on the histological features, it is usually better than that of other paratesticular sarcomas. It did not need any additional treatment.

[Undifferentiated sarcoma of the prostate: report of a case].

The authors report one case of indifferentiated sarcoma of the prostate revealed by phlebitis of the right inferior limb and lung's metastases in a man 41 years old. The tumor progress rapidly and infiltrate the bladder and the posterior urethra. The patient died five months later. They review the literature and study the clinical histological, therapeutic and evolutive aspects of this unusual tumor.

[Urethral rupture in penile fracture. Report of 2 cases].

In the light of two cases of fracture of the corpora cavernosa associated with rupture of the urethra and a review of the recent literature, the authors consider that early surgical treatment is useful and the only way of ensuring rapid recovery without sequelae.

[Testicular metastasis of prostatic adenocarcinoma: report of 2 cases].

Prostatic carcinoma metastasizing to the testis is an extremely rare occurrence. In this study, two new cases have been reported of unilateral testicular metastases from an adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Unlike primary tumors of the testis, this type of tumor develops later in life (between 50 and 60 years of age), and is in most instances unilateral. It is generally discovered accidentally during orchiectomy or autopsy. It is not always easy to establish a morphological diagnosis, as the macroscopic appearance of the tumor may be normal. However, microscopic investigation reveals the presence of neoplasms of the testis.

Adenocarcinoma↗

[Vesical cystostomy and psoas muscle abscess. Case report].

The authors report an usually uncommon case of psoas abscess after cystostomy for an acute urinary retention. Ultrasound and CT-Scan investigations suggested the diagnosis with confirmed by CT guided percutaneous drainage. On the basis of this observation, we discuss the mechanism and therapeutic aspects of this complication.

Cystostomy↗

[Acute pancreatitis in the post-partum period. Apropos of 3 cases].

Acute pancreatitis and pregnancy is a rare and serious combination that poses difficult diagnostic and therapeutic problems. Three cases of acute pancreatitis occurred in the post-partum period. Based on these cases and a literature review, we analyzed the different aspects of this interesting association. Biliary origin is particularly evident. Acute pancreatitis after delivery is a serious problem compared to other forms of acute pancreatitis. Late diagnosis caused by circumstances of happening contribute to the severity at least partially.

Acute Disease↗

[Small cell carcinoma of the prostate. Apropos of a case].

Small cell carcinomas of the prostate are rare. These tumors exhibit morphologic and functional neuro-endocrine characteristics. They are a highly aggressive. New therapeutic protocols are being developed in order to be effective against these tumors, particularly those unresponsive to hormonotherapy.
