Introduction: As a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare systems worldwide became increasingly overloaded. The excessive demand of resources changed medical priorities dramatically. National and international Guidelines were implemented, non-urgent procedures ...
Echinococcus granulosa and Echinococcus multilocularis are a cause for hydatid disease which is universal in distribution. This is an original review article of a series of four cases which presented as primary Echinococus granulosa, 3 of which presented to us as Echinococcus granulosa primary in the kidney and co incidentally they were all in the left kidney, one presented ...
Percutaneous renal biopsy (PRB) is a safe and effective tool in the diagnosis and management of renal disease, complications may occur and are usually associated with bleeding. However, delayed perirenal hematoma is so rare. ...
Nephrin and podocin are well-known proteins that form a slitdiaphragm structure in the kidneys. Recently, these two proteins have been reported to be expressed in the human testis. In this study, we aimed to investigate the testicular expression patterns of nephrin and podocin in infertile men. ...
Karyomegalic Interstitial Nephritis (KIN) is a rare cause of hereditary chronic interstitial nephritis described first time over 40 years ago. The prevalence of this disorder KIN is less than 1% of all the biopsies examined. KIN term was introduced by Mihatsch et al in 1979, who described 3 cases of systemic karyomegaly associated with chronic interstitial nephritis. Disease presents as slowly progressive chronic kidney disease eventually ...
Persistent perineal sinus is a common complication after perineal surgeries reporting upto 30% in various series. Most common underlying cause is wound infection, lymphocele, incomplete healing due to irradiated tissue etc. Iatrogenic urethral injury leading to urethro-cutaneous fistula ...
Congenital urethral strictures are uncommon. They may present with vague lower urinary tract symptoms. Diagnosis is confirmed by retrograde urethrogram or micturatingcystourethrogram. These are managed by internal urethrotomy or urethroplasty. In this report, we are sharing our experience ...
The story line of Euripides' (485-406 B.C.) tragedy HIPPOLYTUS is – in few words – the following: in Theseus' royal palace in Troezen, Phaedra, the second wife of the king, falls madly in love with her stepson Hippolytus, who is a young and bald hunter, who despises not only all the women but even Aphrodite, the Goddess of love, beauty and fertility.

The sample size selected randomly included 600 participants while response rate was 88.3% (530/600). Statistical analysis was performed using ...
Micturition is a complex neuromuscular process. Although control mechanisms have been identified at several levels of the central nervous system and spinal cord, the final pathway in the control of micturition is the autonomic innervation of the urinary bladder and related structures. Micturition is ultimately dependent on the ability of the urinary bladder to contract, generate ...
Fluid collections after kidney transplantation include urinoma, haematoma, lymphocele, seroma and abscess. These can cause allograft dysfunction or loss and are associated with increased morbidity or mortality if was not recognized early and treated promptly. They can present early or after many months postoperatively. Clinical presentation, radiological imaging and biochemical composition of the aspirated fluid help in differentiating these fluid collections. ...
The urinary bladder like all smooth muscles depends on adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for energy for all biochemical processes including contraction, neurohumeral transmission, secretion, and calcium translocation. ATPase is the enzyme that breaks down ATP to ADP and Pi with the release of energy utilized for the biochemical processes just mentioned. Studies have demonstrated ...
The high prevalence of cystitis associated with Urinary Tract Infections and other conditions such as non-bacterial cystitis and interstitial cystitis warrants further investigation into its etiology of causing bladder dysfunction. A model of cystitis in the rabbit urinary bladder was used to analyze how cellular processes ...
Cystoscopy with hydro distention are an integral part of the diagnostic assessment of bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC) but also have a therapeutic effect. ...
Amongst the unanswered questions regarding bladder cancer (BC), the optimal management of Nested Variant Urothelial Carcinoma remains one of the concerns of the scientific community. The real existence of this category is still subject to controversy. The diagnosis could be misleading with other benign bladder lesions. Despite its deceptively being appearance, it is currently considered ...
