Encrusted cystitis and pyelitis are a rare urinary tract infection characterized by mold-like calcification of collecting system. Here, we show a case of encrusted cystitis proceeding to pyelitis during a 1-month delay in diagnosis.

A 73-year-old man developed hematuria and pain during micturition while he was being treated for granulomatosis with polyangiitis and lung abscess. Cystoscopy revealed calcification of the bladder wall, and an initial diagnosis of a bladder stone was made. While awaiting surgery, the bladder wall calcification extended to the renal pelvis on both sides, with renal failure. He underwent bilateral nephrostomy replacement and bladder irrigation with Solita T1 and was administered intravenous vancomycin. Calcification almost regressed after 4weeks of treatment.

Encrusted cystitis and pyelitis should be suspected if the patient shows alkaline urine and urothelial mucosa calcification. Appropriate treatment includes antibiotics, urine drainage, and chemolysis by bladder irrigation.

Although preoperative bradycardia has been reported in several pheochromocytoma cases, postoperative bradycardia has not. This is the first case report of complete atrioventricular dissociation and sinus arrest occurring after pheochromocytoma resection.

A 38-year-old woman was referred for a left adrenal incidentaloma. Twenty-four hour urinary collection showed elevated noradrenaline. Iodine-123-meta-iodobenzylguanidine scintigraphy showed high tracer uptake in the left adrenal region. Open left adrenalectomy was performed, and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma. Thirty minutes following surgery, complete atrioventricular dissociation and sinus arrest developed. Vagal reflex attenuation due to decreased noradrenaline after tumor removal and perioperative pain and fear were believed to be the causes. A temporary pacemaker was implanted to prevent sudden death due to vagal overstimulation.

Vagal reflex attenuation after pheochromocytoma resection can result in complete atrioventricular dissociation and sinus arrest. Adequate preoperative preparation and close monitoring during and after surgery are imperative.

Mixed epithelial-stromal tumor is a biphasic tumor with stromal and benign epithelial components. Only 40 cases of mixed epithelial-stromal tumor originating from a seminal vesicle have previously been published in English.

A 52-year-old man was transferred to our hospital for evaluation of a 3.0-cm pelvic tumor detected incidentally by computed tomography. Robot-assisted laparoscopic vesicle prostatectomy was performed. We approached the Retzius space from both levels of the pouch of Douglas and peritoneal top of the bladder to clarify the tumor's environment. Pathologically, the tumor was diagnosed as a low-grade mixed epithelial-stromal tumor originating from the right seminal vesicle. There was no evidence of disease recurrence within 51months.

This is the first report of robot-assisted laparoscopic vesicle prostatectomy for a seminal vesicle mixed epithelial-stromal tumor. Long-term observation is warranted due to the lack of reports with sufficient follow-up to ensure the procedure's safety.

Two percent of testicular germ cell tumors occur in family clusters. Here, we report metachronous testicular germ cell tumors in two brothers.

An elder brother was diagnosed at the age of 30years old and the pathological diagnosis was mixed testicular germ cell tumor. A tumor in the younger brother was suspected during testicular self-examination. It was confirmed by ultrasound examination at the age of 30years old, 3years and 6months after the diagnosis of the testicular tumor in elder brother. The pathological diagnosis was pure seminoma. Both brothers had stage 1 testicular germ cell tumors and no recurrence was observed during the follow-up period of 4years and 4months and 10months, respectively.

Various histological types of tumor can occur in members of one family. Besides genetic predisposition, shared diet, environmental exposure and other factors can contribute to the familial testicular cancer. Testicular self-examination is recommended for family members of a person with testicular germ cell tumor.

Port-site incisional hernia is a rare but well-known complication following a laparoscopic procedure and it may cause severe adverse outcomes, such as intestinal necrosis. Here, we report a rare case of hernia that occurred from an 8-mm trocar after robot-assisted radical cystectomy.

An 80-year-old woman was diagnosed with cT2bN1M0 bladder cancer. She underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy. Nine days after surgery, she complained of severe abdominal pain. Computed tomography showed herniation of small intestine. Emergency explorative laparotomy revealed herniation of small intestine from an 8-mm trocar site. A section of the small bowel was necrotic and was resected.

It is debatable whether we should routinely close the fascia of an 8-mm trocar site. ReACp53 cost The patient was an elderly woman with multiple major abdominal surgery histories and hernia risk factors. For these patients, fascial closure of the 8-mm trocar site may be indicated.
