Introduction. Triple renal pelvis is an extremely rare variation of the renal collecting system. To the authors? knowledge, bilateral triple renal pelvis has not yet been described in the literature. Case report. A 55-year-old man was hospitalized due to papillary bladder cancer, detected on ultrasonography. As incidental finding, intravenous urography revealed bilateral triple renal pelvis. Six weeks after transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURB) the patient was admitted again, for the second TURB. Computed tomography- urography confirmed the presence of bilateral triple renal pelvis. Conclusion. The unique case of bilateral triple renal pelvis was presented as an extremely rare variation of the renal collecting system.

Supernumerary kidney is a rare clinical entity with fused supernumerary kidney being even rarer. Caudally located fused right supernumerary kidney with multiple nephrolithiasis was diagnosed in a 69-years-old lady by Computed Tomography Urography. A separate renal artery arising from the abdominal aorta as well as separate renal vein draining into the inferior vena cava was present along with right sided bifid collecting system. Embryological basis of origin of supernumerary kidney, its diagnosis, clinical significance and management are discussed.

Abstract A case of sciatic pain syndrome is reported. Computed tomography showed evidence of gas in the spinal canal, and at operation a gas-filled pseudocyst was found in the spinal canal, without herniated disc. The cause of this unique case is discussed in relation to the spinal vacuum phenomenon.

AbstractObjective:To report an extremely rare and interesting case of a woman who developed a laryngeal stone.Case report:A 44-year-old woman was referred to our ENT clinic complaining of dyspnoea and stridor. She had been treated for chest problems for approximately 30 years. On examination, she had a large, spiky, subglottic lesion compromising the airway. A laryngeal computed tomography scan and histopathological and biochemical examination showed the lesion to be a calcium phosphate stone. Review of the literature from the past 50 years, using several search engines, revealed no similar cases.Conclusion:To the author's knowledge, this is a unique case of a stone that developed in the subglottis. This rare entity was the cause of long-standing chest problems unresponsive to medical treatment. The patient recovered completely from all her symptoms after removal of the laryngolith.

Purpose Paraganglioma, a kind of pheochromocytoma originating from embryonic neural crest, is a rare neuroendocrine neoplasm commonly located at extra-adrenal areas such as head, neck, and abdomen. There are a few reports on renal paragangliomas; fewer than 5 reported cases are renal pelvic paragangliomas, including our case. Methods Our patient, who had not experienced headache, hypertension, or palpitation, was founded to have a fixed mass in the left renal pelvis incidentally. Ultrasonography and computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a heterogeneous mass before surgery, and histopathologic test subsequently revealed that the infrequent mass was paraganglioma. Results During 6 months follow-up, ultrasonography and CT examinations showed no signs of recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions The present case report confirms surgery as the standard to treat patients with paraganglioma. We present this case to serve as a reminder of suspected paraganglioma when it has occurred in renal pelvis.

We present the case of a young man with Klinefelter syndrome, who was admitted to our clinic with renal colic. Shortly after admittance, spontaneous decrease in pain has occurred. Ultrasound and intravenous contrast computed tomography were performed, which showed the evidence of urine extravasation at the level of left renal pelvis and a 4 mm stone in the lower third of the left ureter. The management with a double-J ureteric stent for three weeks was successful. Then, the stent was removed and computed tomography confirmed the absence of urine extravasation. We also analyze the literature related to this case and discuss the main mechanisms of collecting system rupture.

Introduction. Urinoma develops after disruption of collecting system of urinary tract and urine leak in surrounding tissue. Most common causes of urinoma are blunt or penetrating trauma. Less common causes are iatrogenic injuries or urinary tract obstruction. In this article we presented a rare case of the urinoma caused by infiltrative bladder cancer. Case report. Acutely ill, a septic patient with ileus and profound azothaemia was admitted to medical intensive care unit. Native computed tomography revealed moderate ileus, right kidney hydronephrosis, extensive retroperitoneal urinoma and vesical thickening with excluded infiltration of ureteral orifices. Computed tomography guided percutaneous drainage was done. Upon stabilization, patient underwent transurethral bladder tumor electroresection (histopathology report was: infiltrative transitional cell tumor of urinary bladder). Radical cystectomy was done. The patient?s recovery was uneventful. Conclusion. Urinoma formed due to spontaneous rupture of collecting system based on ureteral obstruction caused by urinary bladder tumor is very rare clinical case scenario. In case of urinoma of unclear etiology invasive bladder cancer should be excluded.

Duplex collecting system is presence of two pelvicalyceal system which is associated with single or double ureter. Bifid ureter is one of the variations related to congenital anomalies of urinary system which are many times an incidental finding. A bifid ureter may be found in association with other congenital anomalies and defects. In the present case report, we present a case of bifid ureter with duplex collecting system and with no other associated congenital anomaly. The embryological and clinical correlations of duplex collecting system are discussed in present paper.

Objectives: The purpose of this case report is to analyze the incidental finding of an odontogenic keratocyst on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) examination for the case of an impacted tooth 48. Case Report: A 48-year-old man came with a consul letter to perform a CBCT examination with complaints of loose teeth on the right posterior mandible starting from the premolars. Coincidentally found on a sagittal view showed a wide radiolucency lesion on the internal part of the jaw and not related to the impacted tooth. The treatment plan is to remove the lesion and perform a biopsy and perform postoperative panoramic radiograph. Conclusion: The characteristics of the odontogenic keratocyst lesion can be visualized clearly on CBCT. The use of CBCT in analyzing the type and size of the lesion is very helpful in planning surgical treatment. Odontogenic keratocysts can be well-diagnosed using a combination of CBCT examination with histopathological examination to determine the most effective management and prevent a recurrence.
