Renal cell carcinoma in ectopic pelvic kidney: A rare case report with relevant surgical anatomy.

ABSTRACT: Renal Ectopia is a rare developmental anomaly, leading to failure of mature kidney to reach its normal location within the renal fossa. Most ectopic kidneys are asymphtomatic and gets diagnosed as incidental finding on radiography or at surgery. The incidence of RCC in ectopic kidney are very uncommon, presenting with atypical symptoms causes a diagnostic as well as therapeutic dilemma in front of urologists. We present a case of 65 years old gentleman, having complaints of hematuria having heterogeneously enhancing SOL in left pelvic ectopic kidney.

Pediatric laparoscopic pyeloplasty of pelvic ectopic kidney with UPJO - A case report.

Project description:Prevalence of pelvic ectopic kidney with obstruction is not common. Associated anomalies may produce technical difficulties and surgical challenges in treatment. Diagnostic tools such as USG KUB, renal scintigraphic studies (DMSA, DTPA), MRI, and preoperative RGP are very informative examinations to properly decide the timing of the operation and method of it. The patient was under close surveillance from the detection of antenatal hydronephrosis until the development of UPJ obstruction. Herein, we report the case of a patient with this anomaly who successfully underwent laparoscopic reconstruction.

Case report: Toripalimab plus anlotinib in postoperative recurrent renal pelvic sarcomatoid urothelial carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundSarcomatoid urothelial carcinoma (SUC) is a rare renal malignancy. Its biological malignancy is high, the prognosis is poor, diagnostic and treatment options are few, and there is no standard treatment plan.Case presentationIn this case, a 64-year-old woman was hospitalized with fever and lower back pain one week previously. The preliminary diagnosis was a right kidney stone with a urinary tract infection. After the anti-infection treatment, a percutaneous right nephrostomy was performed. The intraoperative biopsy (renal pelvis) finding was infiltrating urothelial carcinoma with a sarcomatoid variation. Subsequently, radical surgery was performed for cancer of the right renal pelvis. Implant metastasis of the abdominal wall and adjacent abdominal cavity occurred half a month after the surgery. The lesion was resected again, and two cycles of doxorubicin plus carboplatin chemotherapy were administered. However, the disease progressed more rapidly after the chemotherapy. With the written consent of the patient, the treatment was altered to targeted immune therapy with toripalimab plus anlotinib. A clinical cure was achieved after nine cycles of treatment with no obvious lesions on imaging. The maintenance therapy was administered consecutively for over a year, and the patient is at present still in good condition with a disease-free survival exceeding two years.ConclusionThis case proves that the combination of toripalimab and anlotinib is effective in the treatment of recurrent renal SUC. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a patient with advanced recurrent urothelial carcinoma of the renal pelvis sarcomatoid cured with this therapy.

Laparoscopic assisted percutaneous nephrolithotomy in chronic kidney disease patients with ectopic pelvic kidney.

Project description:Patients with deranged renal functions have a number of associated factors which can impair healing of wound and increase postoperative morbidity. This study was conducted to assess the problems while managing ectopic pelvic kidney calculi using laparoscopic approach for percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in chronic kidney disease patients.Patients with calculi in ectopic kidney with increased serum creatinine level secondary to obstruction were included in the study. Initially, obstruction was relieved. Patients later underwent laparoscopic-assisted PCNL. Patients were monitored postoperatively.Three patients with large renal calculi in ectopic pelvic kidney had presented in 2 years. Laparoscopic-assisted PCNL was done to remove the stone. Patients had persistent urine leak post-operatively. Mean duration for removal of nephrostomy tube and drain removal were 4.67 days and 6.67 days, respectively. These patients also had paralytic ileus for prolonged duration.Although laparoscopic assisted PCNL is an option in the management of patients with stone disease in ectopic pelvic kidney, prolonged time for healing of tract may increase postoperative morbidity in these patients with impaired renal function.

Renal-Type Clear Cell Carcinoma of the Prostate: A Rare Case Report.

Project description:Occurrence of clear cell carcinoma of the prostate is exceedingly rare and presents a diagnostic dilemma. We describe a case of a 47-year-old male nonsmoker, who presented with a history of frequency, dribbling urination, and dysuria for 6 months. In a digital rectal exam, enlarged prostate with a hard consistency was identified. All results for hematological and biochemical tests were normal. Also, the serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level was 2.7 ng/mL (within normal range). Open prostatectomy was done and the result showed a 300 g specimen, and a histopathological examination revealed clear cell carcinoma. A computerized tomography scan and ultrasound did not show any mass in the kidneys, but three nodules in both lungs in favor of metastasis were identified. Three months after surgery, a PET scan revealed hyperactivity in the abdominal wall, pelvic lymph nodes, and lung fields in favor of metastasis; thereafter, systemic therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitor was prescribed. To the best of our knowledge, clear cell carcinoma of the prostate has been reported very rarely.

Multiple chromoanasynthesis in a rare case of sporadic renal leiomyosarcoma: case report

Project description:Renal leiomyosarcomas (LMS) are extremely rare neoplasms with aggressive behaviour and poor survival prognosis. The most frequent somatic events in leiomyosarcomas are mutations in TP53, RB1, ATRX and PTEN genes, chromosomal instability and chromoanagenesis. By using chromosomal microarray analysis we identified monosomy of chromosomes 3 and 11, gain of Xp (ATRX) arm and three chromoanasynthesis regions (6q21-q27, 7p22.3-p12.1 and 12q13.11-q21.2), with MDM2 and CDK4 oncogenes copy number gains, whereas no CNVs or tumor specific SNVs in TP53, RB1 and PTEN genes were observed.

Symptomatic inguinal bladder hernia causes post-renal acute kidney injury: A rare case report.

Project description:IntroductionInguinal bladder hernia (IBH) is a rare condition representing less than 5% of all inguinal hernias. Most cases occur in elderly overweight men. Patients may present with variable symptoms such as urinary symptoms, inguinal swelling, or pain; however, most of them are asymptomatic and only less than 7% are diagnosed pre-operatively. Different radiological studies can be used if IBH suspected preoperatively including ultrasound, computed tomography scan; however, cystography is the most sensitive test for diagnosis of IBH. Open reduction and hernia repair are the standard treatment of IBH.Case presentationWe report a rare case of an-83-year-old male who presented with left inguinal pain associated with lower urinary tract symptoms including dysuria, nocturia, post-voidal dribbling, and urinary frequency. Laboratory studies showed acute kidney injury (AKI), and computed tomography (CT) of abdomen and pelvis without contrast CT revealed a herniation of 80% of the bladder through the left inguinal canal into the left scrotal sac, with moderate bilateral hydronephrosis and hydroureter, though no obstructing calculi are seen. Pre-operative diagnosis of incarcerated inguinal bladder hernia (IBH) was made, and a timely surgical intervention preceded by bladder catheterization led to a significant improvement of AKI and an excellent outcome without post-operative complications.Discussion and conclusionIBH is uncommon condition that can present with non-specific urinary symptoms; therefore, high index of suspicion is mandated for diagnosis especially in patients with risk factors. Pre-operative radiological evaluation to avoid iatrogenic bladder injury with subsequent surgical repair is the standard management for IBH as we accomplished in our case.

Rare presentation of metastatic renal cell carcinoma to thyroid gland: A case report.

Project description:IntroductionRenal cell carcinoma is known to cause metastasis to unusual sites, but metastasis to the thyroid gland is a rare occurrence, not only that, but 20 years after complete recovery is almost nonexistent.Case presentationWe are presenting here a case of 79-year-old female who presented to us for asymptomatic progressive thyroid nodule. She had history of right nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma 20 years ago. Ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) of the thyroid was non-diagnostic. Total thyroidectomy of the patient was performed, and histopathological evaluation of the specimen revealed the swelling to be of metastatic in nature secondary to renal cell carcinoma.DiscussionDespite thyroid metastasis being rare, FNAB can prove to be useful tool for diagnosis of thyroid tumors and metastases and can be inconclusive in some cases. Therefore, immunohistochemistry can prove beneficial in diagnosis such cases.ConclusionThe diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma metastasis is made after immunohistochemical evaluation of the thyroidectomy specimen with thyroidectomy proving to be the modality of treatment for such cases with no further radiation therapy and a yearly follow up plan to screen for other lesions.

A simplified fascial model of pelvic anatomical surgery: going beyond parametrium-centered surgical anatomy.

Project description:The classical surgical anatomy of the female pelvis is limited by its gynecological oncological focus on the parametrium and burdened by its modeling based on personal techniques of different surgeons. However, surgical treatment of pelvic diseases, spreading beyond the anatomical area of origin, requires extra-regional procedures and a thorough pelvic anatomical knowledge. This study evaluated the feasibility of a comprehensive and simplified model of pelvic retroperitoneal compartmentalization, based on anatomical rather than surgical anatomical structures. Such a model aims at providing an easier, holistic approach useful for clinical, surgical and educational purposes. Six fresh-frozen female pelves were macroscopically and systematically dissected. Three superficial structures, i.e., the obliterated umbilical artery, the ureter and the sacrouterine ligament, were identified as the landmarks of 3 deeper fascial-ligamentous structures, i.e., the umbilicovesical fascia, the urogenital-hypogastric fascia and the sacropubic ligament. The retroperitoneal areolar tissue was then gently teased away, exposing the compartments delimited by these deep fascial structures. Four compartments were identified as a result of the intrapelvic development of the umbilicovesical fascia along the obliterated umbilical artery, the urogenital-hypogastric fascia along the mesoureter and the sacropubic ligaments. The retroperitoneal compartments were named: parietal, laterally to the umbilicovesical fascia; vascular, between the two fasciae; neural, medially to the urogenital-hypogastric fascia and visceral between the sacropubic ligaments. The study provides the scientific rational for a model of pelvic retroperitoneal anatomy based on identifiable anatomical structures and suitable for surgical planning and training.

A rare malformation of urinary system: Right ectopic thoracic kidney.

Project description:An ectopic kidney is a common developmental anomaly of the urinary system. However, the thoracic kidney (TK) is the rarest state form of an aberrant kidney. The aim of this case report is defining the symptoms in TK diagnosis and constructing a treatment model will promote the best outcomes. These patients come to the physician with the various symptoms, and they could be diagnosed incidentally. In our case, we describe 40 years female patient with severe respiratory problems and upper back pain. In the pulmonary clinic, suspected mass was diagnosed with chest X-ray, and computerized tomography detected nontraumatic nonhernia associated, a truly ectopic TK. Moreover, the thoracic surgeon and urologist team decided to exploration and reconstructed the right ectopic kidney. The 1st month of the control of patient symptoms was disappeared. Overall, TK should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of thoracic tumors. Surgical exploration and reconstruction should be thought in patients who have severe respiratory symptoms.
