actinomycosis can involve all parts of the urogenital system. urachal actinomycosis rarely reported and was mistaken with urachal adenocarcinoma. we report a case of urachal actinomycosis that presented with abdominal pain and underwent laparotomy with the diagnosis of urachal malignancy pathology reviewed the diagnosis of urachal actinomycosis. patient had no problem in two years follow up.

The male urogenital system represents a morphologically complex region that arises from a common embryological origin. However, it is typically studied separately as the excretory system is dissected with the posterior wall of the abdomen while the reproductive features are exposed with the pelvis and perineum dissection. Additionally, the reproductive structures are typically dissected followi...

INTRODUCTION Melioidosis is endemic to the tropical regions, in particular Thailand and Northern Australia. Any organ can be affected by melioidosis. Involvement of the urogenital system is common in Northern Australia, but is less common in other regions. This study assesses the characteristics of melioidosis affecting the urogenital system treated in a tertiary referral centre in Brunei Darus...

BACKGROUND To survey genitourinary (GU) organ injury following general trauma, we performed an epidemiologic study of urogenital injuries in trauma patients referred to our hospital (a teaching hospital affiliated with the Zahedan University of Medical Sciences). OBJECTIVES We aimed to assess the epidemiology of urogenital system injuries in southeastern Iran. PATIENTS AND METHODS From Apri...

The term urogenital system compromises the genital and urinary organs. Besides having different tasks, they have a common embryological origin and are often discussed in relation to each other in a clinical perspective. The following article focuses on the diverting urinary organs, therefore the part from the ureters to the urinary bladder up to the urethra is regarded. The physiology also attr...

Transcription factor GATA-2 is expressed in a complex temporally and tissue-specific pattern within the developing embryo. Loss-of-function studies in the mouse showed that GATA-2 activity is first required during very early hematopoiesis. We subsequently showed that a 271-kbp yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) transgene could fully complement the loss of Gata2 hematopoietic function but that th...

The morphology of the urogenital system of extant dipnoans is compared among the three genera, and to that of other fishes and amphibians. Analysis is based on dissections, sectioned material, and the literature. Urogenital system morphology provides no support for the hypothesis of a sister-group relationship between dipnoans and amphibians, for virtually all shared characters are primitive, a...

Background: Congenital hypothyroidism (CH), as one of the most common congenital endocrine disorders, may be significantly associated with congenital malformations. This study investigates urogenital abnormalities in children with primary CH (PCH). Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 200 children aged three months to 1 year, referred to Amir-Kabir Hospital, Arak, Iran. One hundred...
