Cystic nephroma is an unusual, cystic neoplasm of the kidney and is usually benign. There are two peaks in the incidence of the tumor, with a bimodal distribution presenting in children younger than two years old and in adults. These benign lesions are usually seen in childhood, whose clinical presentation is nonspecific with symptoms such as flank pain, hematuria and urinary tract infection. We aim to report treatment, and follow-up of a 48-year-old female patient with cystic nephroma for whom we performed open partial nephrectomy. As a surgical treatment radical or partial nephrectomy is applied according to the size and position of the masses. Long-term follow-up is recommended to rule out local recurrence or metastasis.
Genitourinary and colon tumors which constitutes frequent sources to metastatic tumors of the penis, are relatively more common tumors in the society. Though its rich vascularization, metastatic tumor of the penis is very rare. This can be considered to be a gladsome situation in terms of hopeless survey of metastatic penile tumors. The main goal of treatment is to improve the comfort and quality of life in selected patients while it may not contribute to surveillance.
