A 1-month-old boy was referred to our hospital with right hydronephrosis. Excretory urography showed poor visualization of the right kidney and a filling defect in the bladder. Chromosomal analysis of peripheral blood revealed a karyotype of 49,XXXXY, and a diagnosis of 49,XXXXY Klinefelter s syndrome associated with hydronephrosis caused by intravesical ureterocele was made. 49,XXXXY Klinefelt...

BACKGROUND: There is great variation in the Accident and Emergency workload and location of Urology services in UK hospitals. This study investigated the relationship of the initial management of acute renal colic with the department workload plus local facilities including location of X-ray and urology services in UK Accident and Emergency (A&E) departments. METHODS: A&E departments in each of...

The urine on admission contained much albumin with moderate numbers of red and white blood cells, and a few hyaline and granular casts in the centrifuged deposit. These abnormalities decreased, and by October 19 the urine was normal. The blood urea on admission was 82 mg./ 100 ml. and two days later 85 mg., but it fell to 29 mg. by October 19. Excretory urography was then normal. The patient st...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of MR urography (MRU) with that of ultrasonography (US) in the evaluation of urinary tract when this failed to opacify during excretory urography (EXU). MATERIALS AND METHODS Twelve urinary tracts in 11 patients were studied. In each case, during EXU, the urinary system failed to opacify within one hour of the injection of c...

OBJECTIVE To determine the sensitivity of transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) in the detection of vesicovaginal fistula (VVF). METHODS The study included 15 patients with urinary incontinence suspected or diagnosed to be due to vesicovaginal fistula that were originally referred to the department for intravenous urography (IVU). Complimentary TVS was done with consent. Cases with stress incontinen...

The objective of this review article is to learn how to recognize anatomic variants and benign entities that mimic bladder cancer at computed tomography (CT) urography. Building on recent data that suggest that CT urography can be used to diagnose bladder cancer, recognition of anatomic variants and benign entities will help improve radiologists' ability to diagnose bladder cancer.

Sena-Graph syrup has recently been formulated by an Iranian pharmaceutical company for being used in bowel evacuation before radiography, colonoscopy and surgery. This study compares the efficacy, adverse effects and patient compliance of two bowel preparation regimens with castor oil and Sena-Graph syrup in of outpatients for Intravenous Urography (IVU). One hundred and fourteen consecutive ou...

Around 0.3 percent of all primary tumors the urinary bladder are sarcomatoid carcinomas, a rare aggressive tumor with poor prognosis. Histological diagnosis for urothelialcarcinoma plays significant role but is challenging in several ways. Making foundational relies heavily on immunohistochemistry. We present case high-grade urothelial cancer characteristics and having components giant cells. T...
