“…Traditionally, PNA has been associated with significant morbidity and high rates of mortality reaching up to 56% (11). This was attributed to delay in diagnosis because the symptoms of PNA are somewhat non-specific and confusing.…”

Purpose:To compare the results of percutaneous and open drainage for perinephric abscess. Materials and Methods:The files of 86 patients who underwent drainage for perinephric abscesses from April 2001 through March 2008 were evaluated. The method of drainage for each patient was performed according to the clinical decision of the treating physician. Percutaneous tube drain (PCD) was used for drainage of the abscess in 43 patients (group 1), while the other 43 patients were managed with open drainage (group 2). Cure was defined as complete obliteration of the abscess cavity. The cure rates, complications, and hospital stay were compared between both groups. Results: The study included 50 males and 36 females with mean age 44.2 ± 17.3. The most common predisposing factors were diabetes mellitus and/or stones. Open drainage of perinephric abscesses resulted in a statistically significant higher cure rate (98% versus 69%, p < 0.001) and shorter hospital stay than PCD (3.6 versus 6 days, p < 0.001). Failure of complete drainage of multilocular abscess was observed in 8 of 13 cases (61.5%) in group 1 and one of 38 cases (2.6%) in group 2 (P < 0.001). Complications were observed in 7% of group 1 and 11.5% in group 2 (P = 0.45). After mean follow-up of 19 months, 9 of 46 patients (19.6%) had recurrence; 7 of them were in group 1. Conclusion: Percutaneous drainage of perinephric abscess is an effective minimally invasive treatment. However, PCD is not the optimal method for drainage of multilocular abscess because open surgical drainage provided higher cure rates and shorter hospitalization than PCD.

RésuméLa suppuration d'un carcinome rénal nécrosé a été rapportée seulement trois fois dans la littérature et demeure une circonstance exceptionnelle de découverte de cancer du rein. Le tableau clinique et radiologique est trompeur, et c'est l'évolution défavorable malgré un traitement approprié qui doit évoquer le diagnostic de cancer rénal. Nous rapportons un nouveau cas de carcinome rénal révélé par un abcès du rein.

“…Although there are a few identifiable risk factors for bladder cancer, there are none currently identified as risk factor for urinary bladder RMS 2 . Most of the current knowledge regarding ERMS is extrapolated from the Intergroup Rhabdomyosarcoma Study Group (IRSG) results which are case series from the paediatric population 5 . The goal of treatment is to achieve local control with preservation of form and function using combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy based on group, stage and histologic subtypes.…”

“…Existing treatment options are extrapolated from pulmonary small-cell carcinoma 3 . However, one small prospective Phase-II study 4,5 and retrospective series 6 suggest an overall survival benefit with perioperative platinum-based chemotherapy in localised disease. The paucity of data highlights the importance of building on existing treatment data and outcomes within the medical literature.…”

“…Superior extension may present as subphrenic abscess or penetrate the diaphragm resulting in empyema, lung abscess or perinephrobronchial fistula. The abscess may extend medially and penetrate into the peritoneum or laterally and perforate the colon (3,4,5) . In our patient, we found that the right perinephric abscess which ruptured into the peritoneal cavity caused generalized peritonitis which required laparotomy with peritoneal washout.…”
