Benign masses of the female paraurethral region

Introduction. Benign female paraurethral masses (BFPM) are not often found during practice. This is due to the small size of the BMP and the low specificity and effectiveness of imaging techniques (urethrocystography, ultrasound, computed tomography).Purpose of the study. To determine the frequency and structure of female BMP.Materials and methods. We conducted a retrospective analysis of the female medical records (n = 5,112) who went to the urologist in 2018 with complaints of a frequent and painful urination. In this population, 92 (1.79%) patients were diagnosed with BFPM.Results. In the structure of BFPM, the most common is urethral diverticulum -57 (61.9%) and paraurethral cyst - 24 (26%). In other cases, we identified a urethral polyp and leiomyoma in 7 (7,6%) и 4 (4,5%) of cases, respectively. The average womens' age who were diagnosed with was 29.2 ± 7.3 years. BFPM were detected most often in women aged 26 to 35 years (48.9%). All patients complained of frequent urination. We have recorded the following complaints as well: feeling of a foreign body in the perineum - 77.1%, imperative urinary urgency - 64.1%, perineal pain - 28.2%, dyspareunia - 26%, difficulty urinating - 14.1%. The above-mentioned complaints were noted within 1 year by more than half of women (72.8%).Conclusions. BFPM were diagnosed in 1.79% of women. Of these, 2/3 of cases were urethral diverticula, and % of cases were paraurethral cyst. The diagnosis of BFPM should be comprehensive and combine examination, palpation and instrumental (ultrasound, urethrocystoscopy, MRI) diagnosis of the urethral region

EARLY AND LATE POSTOPERATIVE COMPLICATIONS IN PATIENTS WITH LOCALIZED AND LOCALLY ADVANCED RENAL CELL CARCINOMA

BACKGROUND: Modern Russian statistics show that the percentage of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) among all oncological diseases has increased and amounted to almost 5% in 2019. The main method of treating RCC is radical nephrectomy in localized RCC, which is supplemented by the removal of regional lymph nodes in locally advanced RCC. AIM: To evaluate early and late postoperative complications in patients with localized and locally advanced renal cell carcinoma. METHODS: We've analyzed the results of surgical treatment and postoperative complications in 378 patients with clinically proven localized and locally developed RCC. RESULTS: The total number of complications after surgical treatment of patients with localized and locally advanced RCC was 24 (6.3%) patients. Moreover, in the treatment of the localized form of RCC, postoperative complications are 3 times less common than in the locally advanced form of RCC (p <0.05). The most common complication after surgical treatment of RCC was bleeding which we observed in 11(2.9%) patients. CONCLUSION: After surgical treatment of RCC, the proportion of complications is not high, but they can have unpleasant consequences. In the late postoperative period the most common complication bleeding is followed by lymphorrhea and urinary tract infections
