BACKGROUND Some of patients with an intact gall bladder develop acute cholecystitis or have gall bladder stone formation after endoscopic sphincterotomy. Endoscopic sphincterotomy may affect gall bladder motility. AIMS To prospectively evaluate longterm effect of endoscopic sphincterotomy on gall bladder motility. PATIENTS Thirty two patients with an intact gall bladder (15 with and 17 with...

BACKGROUND Traditionally, intraperitoneal bladder perforations caused by trauma or iatrogenic interventions have been treated by open or laparoscopic surgery. Additionally, transvesical access to the peritoneal cavity has been reported to be feasible and useful for natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) but would be enhanced by a reliable method of closing the vesicotomy. OBJ...

Endoscopic sphincterotomy with extraction of the stones is often the only treatment for stones in the bile duct in patients considered unfit for surgery. Most of these patients fare well even when they have stones in the gall bladder; cholecystectomy for biliary colic, acute cholecystitis, or jaundice was necessary in less than 15% followed up for up to seven years. 2 After the procedure patien...

The patient was a case of illicit drug abuser who self-introduced an electrical wire into his bladder. After its failed cystoscopic removal, the foreign body was removed suprapubically without open blad...

OBJECTIVES To report a new case of bladder mullerianosis. METHODS We present the case of a 30 year old female patient with history of miscarriage, who refers voiding dis-turbances with menstruations. Vaginal ultrasound showed an exophytic bladder lesion, which was confirmed by cistoscopy. Endoscopic resection was indicated. RESULTS The pathological study of tissues obtained showed mixed gla...

BACKGROUND Bladder metastases from lung adenocarcinoma are extremely rare; in the seven previously reported cases, the finding of an intact epithelium overlying the bladder tumour was considered suggestive of a secondary lesion. We describe the first case of bladder metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma whereby endoscopic appearance was strongly consistent with primary bladder cancer, thus compli...

Background: Vesical calculus means urolith in bladder. Cystolithotomy is the traditional treatment, but a percutaneous approach has been advocated. The objective was to compare open cystolithotomy with perurethral cystolithotripsy and suprapubic cystolithotripsyused treatment of bladder stones.Methods: A retrospective study conducted among 100 patients stone treated at tertiary centre Eastern N...

During the period November 1988 to April 1989, eleven patients with bladder calculi, seen at our Centre, were offered ESWL therapy. However, only eight patients underwent ESWL. One patient passed his stone spontaneously, one requested endoscopic lithotrity as the initial mode of therapy and one underwent transurethral resection of the prostate and simultaneous endoscopic lithotrity of his bladd...
