was made by obtaining a rough grating sensation on palpation, and it was thought that the two stones rubbed against each other, otherwise the case simulated very markedly one of hard malignant growth of the glans penis. With care, however, the glans could be differentiated from the lump. Operation was at once performed and presented no difficulties, but it was found that what had appeared to be...

Urinary calculi.

IJANTITATIVE CHEMICAL ANALYSES of urinary calculi have been done in these laboratories for some twenty years. During this time almost two thousand stones have been examined. In the early days of this period, the only quantitative method available was that of a complete analysis of the inorganic ions and organic compounds present, which was quite difficult and tedious. After the development of t...

Characteristic prenatal ultrasonographic findings of patent urachus: a case report.

A characteristic prenatal ultrasonographic finding of patent urachus is described. Routine obstetrical ultrasonography first revealed a cystic mass in the umbilical cord at 16 weeks of gestation. The mass spontaneously decreased in size and was undetectable at full term on serial ultrasound examination. The male newborn infant was delivered uneventfully at 38 weeks of gestation, weighing 2,774 ...

Posterior urethral valve with unilateral vesicoureteral reflux and patent urachus: A rare combination of urinary tract anomaliess

Posterior urethral valve (PUV) is a common cause of lower urinary tract obstruction in male infants with an incidence of 1:5000-8000. PUV continues to be a significant cause of morbidity and ongoing renal damage in infants and children. It can coexist with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) in about 50% of cases and also with patent urachus in about one-third of cases. It is a case of a 22-day-old ful...
