A hyperechoic bladder-ring appearance as pathognomonic finding for emphysematous cystitis - A case report and literature review.

ABSTRACT: An emphysematous cystitis s a rare urinary tract infectious disease and fatal unless any treatments. The case was a 97-year-old female presented with knee pain after falling with co-existence of macroscopic hematuria and pyuria. The ultrasonography examined on the same day showed a hyperechoic bladder-ring appearance bordering bladder wall which was re-was re-confirmed by computed tomography by air bubble collection on the circumferential bladder wall. We conclude and emphasize as the leaning point that emphysematous cystitis is raised as a differential diagnosis when ultrasonography showed the pathognomonic as hyperechoic bladder-ring appearance bordering bladder wall.

Emphysematous pyelonephritis and cystitis in a patient with uremia and anuria: A case report and literature review.

Project description:IntroductionEmphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) or cystitis (EC) is a severe infection of the urinary tract with high mortality. EPN is uncommon among the patients of end stage of renal failure (ESRD) CASE PRESENTATION:: A 38-year-old male with uremia and anuria who was on hemodialysis was found to have gas formation in the bilateral pelvis, ureters, and urinary bladder by CT scan. The diagnosis was emphysematous pyelonephritis and cystitis. And Foley catheter was placed and bladder irrigation was performed. Escherichia coli infection was identified in urine culture and antibiotic was prescribed accordingly. Gas disappeared completely and the patient recovered uneventfully.ConclusionThis is the first case report of asymptomatic EPN and EC in uremic patient, and conservative management was optimistic in this condition. More attention should be paid to EPN and EC happening to ESRD patients.

Unsuccessful Transfemoral Tricuspid Valve-in-Ring Implantation: Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:Transcatheter tricuspid valve-in-ring implantation has emerged as a potential alternative to surgery for high-risk patients with symptomatic severe tricuspid regurgitation that recurs after surgical ring repair. The worldwide experience remains limited. We report a case of unsuccessful transfemoral tricuspid valve-in-ring implantation (using an Edwards SAPIEN 3 valve, Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA) and literature review. The rigidity, open shape, and open configuration of the ring may lead to imperfect positioning, resulting in severe paravalvular leak. Particular attention should be paid to sizing and wire position with respect to the ring while implanting the valve.

Primary malignant mesenchymoma of bladder: Case report and review of the literature.

Project description:Malignant mesenchymoma (MM) is defined as a heterogeneous malignant soft tissue tumor that consists of 2 or more distinctly different mesenchymal components in addition to fibrosarcomatous elements. Bladder MM was rarely reported in the literature and there are only 5 cases of primary bladder MM documented in English literature to date.A 58-year-old male complained of difficulty in urination and intermittent gross hematuria for 3 months. Doppler ultrasound scan revealed an avascular and homogeneous hypoechoic mass measured 6.5 × 9 cm in the bladder. Computed tomography showed a homogeneous solid mass in the bladder.Pathology revealed spindle-shaped tumor and proliferation of poorly differentiated immature mesenchymal cells rich in eosinophilic cytoplasm with hyperchromatic sticklike nuclei. Immunohistochemical examinations were positive for CD117.The patient was diagnosed with presence of bladder tumor and underwent radical cystectomy; the optimal treatment strategy was reviewed and discussed.There was no recurrence or metastasis during a 16-month follow-up.Our case study demonstrated bladder MM with a relatively indolent clinical course. A multidisciplinary approach including surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy may be useful. Radical resection is the most important determinant of clinical outcome. Generally, the clinical outcome and prognosis of mesenchymoma are favorable.

A unique case of urinary bladder simple melanosis: a case report and review of the literature.

Project description:Melanosis refers to abnormal or excessive deposition of melanin pigment in the cells and/or tissue, which can be seen in any organ but commonly in skin and oral mucosa. Melanosis of the urinary bladder is an extremely rare benign condition and only a handful of cases been reported in the English literature before. In this article, we report a new case of urinary melanosis, describe the differential diagnostic features from pseudomelanosis and offer clues for correct diagnosis. We also provide comprehensive review of the literature on the subject.

Retrieval of 159 magnetic balls from urinary bladder: A case report and literature review.

Project description:Foreign body in urinary bladder is an unusual finding in urology emergency, which has always caused wide attention. In this case report, we presented a 28-year-old unmarried male who was admitted to the emergency room with magnetic balls in his bladder. An abdominal plain X ray showed metallic dense shadow in the pelvic region. The foreign body was removed under modified cystoscopy and 159 magnetic balls were detected. The patient was discharged without any surgical or postsurgical complications. Cystoscopy is a better option for dealing with a large number of magnetic balls in urinary bladder.

Advanced small-cell bladder cancer into a ureterocele: A case report and literature review.

Project description:Small cell bladder cancer (SCBC) is found in 0.5-1.2% of all bladder tumors. Ureteroceles are dilatation of the distal portion of an ectopic ureter, which association with tumors are rare. This article reports the first case described of an SCBC developed into a ureterocele, beyond a literature review.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour of the bladder: Case report and review of the literature.

Project description:Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour (IMT) is a rare tumour with malignant potential, and has been described in many major organs. However, bladder location is very uncommon. We report the case of a 23-year-old woman who presented with painless gross hematuria for 2 weeks. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a bladder tumour. The patient underwent an open partial cystectomy and the final pathologic diagnosis was IMT of bladder. Typical IMTs can be locally aggressive, therefore close follow-up is necessary.

Secondary Germline Finding in Liquid Biopsy of a Deceased Patient; Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Project description:Liquid biopsies are increasingly used in the care of patients with advanced cancers. These tests are used to find mutations and other genomic alterations, quantify these findings over time, and guide treatment. It is not unexpected that germline mutations contributing to the development of cancer can be identified in cell-free DNA. Consequently, increased use of liquid biopsies has resulted in subsequent rise of secondary identification of germline mutations. Clinicians need to be aware of this potential use of liquid biopsies and the need to evaluate the patient and family members for confirmation. Our case documents a deceased patient's liquid biopsy result that was confirmed as a germline mutation through a methodical work-up of the patient's family members. Here, we present the case and provide a brief review of pertinent literature.
