Left Flank Pain

Upper urinary tract (UUT) benign tumours are rare. We present a case of UUT lipoma in a 41-year-old man with left flank pain. A computed tomographic urography scan revealed an irregular thickening of the left renal collecting system wall extending from the upper calices to the renal pelvis. The diagnosis of UUT was made and the patient underwent a nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff excision, as standard treatment. However, macroscopic and histological examination revealed a lipomatous tumour with no sign of malignancy. To our knowledge this is the first reported case of its kind of a UUT managed first with a minimally invasive approach.

Mitral Apparatus

In patients with functional mitral regurgitation, the placement of a sling encircling both papillary muscles in conjunction with mitral annuloplasty appears to be a rational approach for surgical correction, because it addresses both the mitral valve and the deformities of the subvalvular mitral apparatus. Reports in the literature that describe the utilization of this technique are few, and mainly involve a median sternotomy approach. The purpose of this communication is to describe the technical details of performing this procedure via a minimally invasive approach.
