A rare complication of ureterorenoscopy: Subcapsular renal hematoma

Ureterorenoscopy is very effective treatment of upper urinary tract pathologies such as stones, ureteral strictures, ureteropelvic obstruction, and upper urinary tract carcinomas. The incidence of ureterorenoscopy′ complications has been decreased because of significant technological advancement and worldwide use of ureterorenoscopy. The complication rate of ureterorenoscopy is <5%. Most complications are classified as minor which require observation. Major complications may require advanced procedures to prevent serious consequences. Subcapsular renal hematoma is a very rare complication after ureterorenoscopy procedures. Bansal et al. had reported this complication after ureterorenoscopy as a first. We presented a case of subcapsular renal hematoma after ureterorenoscopy procedure who was treated conservatively

Small cell carcinoma of prostate presenting with Cushing′s syndrome

Small cell carcinoma of prostate (SCPCa) was initially described by Wenk et al. in 1977. SCPCa is a very rare cancer that accounts for only 0.5-2% of all prostate carcinomas. Although, this pathology is usually accompanied with prostate adenocarcinomas, there are a few hypotheses about the origin of SCPCa. Poorly differentiated acinar adenocarcinoma must be distinguished from SCPCa in histopathological examination. These patients may present with different paraneoplastic syndromes. Early diagnosis is very important because of the aggressive tumor behavior. Here, we report a patient who presented with Cushing syndrome and thereafter diagnosed with SCPCa
