The images presented below were from a man, at the age of 80, who was admitted to hospital with recurrent urinary tract infection. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed after initial examination. Conventional MRI showed multiple diverticulum in bladder and one of them had contact sigmoid colon via fistula tract (Figure-1). Diffusion weighted images (DWI) showed restricted diffusion in ...

The incidence of multiple primary malignant neoplasms increases with age, reflecting an increase in overall cancer risk in older patients. Cases of two or more concurrent primary cancers are still rare, although its incidence is increasing. Here, we report the case of a 57-year-old man who was referred to our institution with synchronous squamous cell carcinoma of the skin on the forehead, infi...

bladder calculi, a rare condition in the pediatric population, occur most commonly as a result of either migration from the kidney or urinary stasis in the bladder. we report the case of a 3-year-old boy with recurrent urinary tract infections (uti) secondary to bladder calculi formation on the sutures from a previous herniorrhaphy.a 3-year-old boy with previous history of herniorrhaphy present...

Introduction ▼ Paragangliomas are rare extraadrenal neoplasms of the sympathetic nervous system, which seldom may arise in the sympathetic plexus of the urinary bladder wall. Some of these tumors are producing catecholamines. Hormonally active paravesical paragangliomas are exceedingly rare tumors, accounting for less than 1 % of all pheochromocytomas and for less than 0.05 % of bladder tumors....

small cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder (sccub) is an extremely rare bladder malignancy characterized by an aggressive clinical behavior. so, it is important to diagnose this high grade disease by urinary cytology. we report a case of sccub in an old man with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (cll) in remission, while bladder tumor was diagnosed by cytology. with this article, we aimed to review...
