Renal pelvic ectopia has been estimated to occur in 1 of 2100 to 3000 autopsies. Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a very rare phenomenon in an ectopic kidney. According to our review of literature, there are only seven reports of RCC occurrence in pelvic kidneys. We describe a patient with RCC of presacral ectopic kidney who underwent radical nephrectomy at our medical center.

A paravertebral presacral posttraumatic arteriovenous fistula drained through the ascending lumbar vein to the epidural plexuses and perimedullary veins. The patient did not have symptoms of myelopathy, only low-back pain and radicular hypoesthesia. The lesion was embolized with a large balloon and clinical symptoms disappeared.

Retrorectal cyst-hamartoma, an uncommon lesion, arises from hindgut embryonic remnants and may be associated with sacral anomalies. Such a lesion is presacral, multicystic, and lined with glandular or transitional epithelium. Malignant transformation of these lesions has been reported. We describe the clinical, pathologic, and imaging findings in an infant.

Pathologies in the skeleton of phytosaurs, extinct archosauriform reptiles restricted to the Late Triassic, have only been rarely described. The only known postcranial pathologies of a phytosaur are two pairs of fused vertebrae of "Angistorhinopsis ruetimeyeri" from Halberstadt, Germany, as initially described by the paleontologist Friedrich von Huene. These pathologic vertebrae are redescribed...

We reported the first case of a congenital intrapelvic presacral neuroblastoma in Puerto Rico managed in the early neonatal period. The preoperative diagnosis was a sacrococcygeal teratoma Altman stage IV classification. This case confirms the importance of a comprehensive physical examination and observation of low-risk newborn infants with a history of adequate prenatal care and an unremarkab...

Aggressive fibromatosis arising from the retroperitoneum is extremely rare. It may occur in association with previous trauma, abdominal surgery, drugs, Gardner's syndrome, or familial adenomatous polyposis. We report a case of retroperitoneal fibromatosis presenting as a presacral mass with an infiltrating nature, relatively intense enhancement on enhanced computed tomography scanning, and low-...

The neurenteric cyst is a rare developmental lesion arising as a result of persistence of the neurenteric canal. It usually presents in the second and third decade. Lesions occurring in children are rare. Majority of the cases presented with signs of spinal cord involvement. This is a rare case of neurenteric cyst in an infant who presented with a presacral mass. A nine-month-old female had an ...

BACKGROUND A 57-year old man with low-back pain was found to have a 3 × 3 × 3 cm presacral neuroendocrine tumour (NET) with widespread metastases, mainly to the skeleton. His neoplastic disease responded well to peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) with the radiotagged somatostatin agonist (177)Lu-DOTATATE. During almost 10 years he was fit for a normal life. He succumbed to an intraspi...

Although radical cystectomy (RCE) with extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) is the standard of care for patients muscule-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), rate partial (PCE) in world remains quite high (7%). In particular, organ-sparing approach can be chosen when it impossible to perform RCE due medical contraindications or at request patient. Its advantages include less trauma, better ...
