Mucocoele of male urethra.
نویسنده
چکیده
Mucocoele or mucoid cyst may occur in any part of the urethra and is usually asymptomatic. McCrea (1940), quoting Ottow, explains the origin of these cysts on the assumption that the lips of the primitive urethral opening have failed to unite in their entirety. If this failure is confined to the urethral epithelium, a mucoid cyst or mucocoele results. A case is presented below in which the situation of the mucocoele is rather unusual.

We report on a 28-year-old man with severe headache. Imaging studies included CT and MR. A large sphenoid mucocoele was demonstrated as well as findings compatible with fibrous dysplasia of the facial bones. Both disorders had been previously unknown. Imaging findings suggested that the sphenoid mucocoele was related to an obstruction caused by the expansile bone of fibrous dysplasia. These fin...

MUCOCOELE of the frontal or ethmoidal sinuses is an uncommon cause of unilateral proptosis which may produce considerable difficulty in diagnosis. There seems a natural tendency for these cases to be sent to an eye specialist, and a curious reluctance for him to refer the patient to an E.N.T. surgeon, often preferring a neurological opinion which may involve the patient in expensive and unpleas...
متن کاملA biophysical model of the male urethra: comparing viscoelastic properties of polyvinyl alcohol urethras to male pig urethras.
AIMS We aim at developing a non-invasive method for grading and diagnosing urinary bladder outlet obstruction, based on noise recording with a perineal contact microphone during voiding. We found that the noise production during voiding depends amongst others on the viscoelastic properties of the urethral wall. To further test our method, we need a realistic biophysical model of the male urethr...
