ABSTRACT This report is of a 50-year-old man with a rare urinary bladder melanoma. He presented with hematuria followed by bladder outlet obstruction at the time of presentation. Ultrasonogram of the pelvis revealed a mass in the bladder outlet, suggestive of enlarged prostate. Suprapubic cystostomy was then performed. Subsequent transvesical exploration revealed a dark coloured mass at the outlet of bladder, which on histopathology confirmed to be melanoma. After ruling out other possible primary sites, he underwent radical cysto-urethrectomy with urinary diversion. Disease was confirmed with immunohistochemistry.

  • Cystoscopy to Understand a Cystoscopy, It Is Helpful to Become Familiar with the Urinary System (Figure 1)
    Northwestern Memorial Hospital Patient Education TESTS AND PROCEDURES Cystoscopy To understand a cystoscopy, it is helpful to become familiar with the urinary system (Figure 1). The system’s main purpose is to remove urinary waste products from your body. Urine is produced by the kidneys, moves through the ureters and is stored in the bladder. The bladder is a balloon-like organ that stores urine. The urethra is the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of your body. If you have Figure 1. Urinary system any questions or concerns, Kidneys please ask your physician or nurse. Ureters Bladder Urethra A cystoscopy is a procedure that allows your physician to look at the inside of your urethra and bladder. A telescope-like instrument called a cystoscope is passed through your urethra into your bladder. During the procedure, your physician may also do the following, as needed: ■ Remove stones from your bladder or ureters ■ Place or remove a ureteral stent ■ Insert medication into your bladder ■ Remove small pieces of tissue for testing (biopsy) from your urinary tract A cystoscopy may be done in a physician’s office or in the hospital’s operating room (OR). Your physician will discuss which option is best for you. Preparation and procedure If the test is done in the OR, you will be asked to sign a written consent. The OR procedure and any special preparation will be explained to you. There may be some discomfort during the examination. Some patients may require sedation or anesthesia. Depending on the type of medication used for your procedure, you will be told if you need to stop eating and drinking before your procedure.

Methods Cases with cystoscopy data after anterior urethroplasty in a multi-institutional database were retrospectively studied. Based on cystoscopic evaluation, performed within 3-months post-urethroplasty, patients were categorized as small-caliber (SC) stricture recurrence: stricture unable to be passed by standard cystoscope, large-caliber (LC) stricture accommodating a cystoscope, and no recurrence.

    Suprapubic Cystostomy: Urinary Tract Infection and other short term Complications A.T. Hasan,Q. Fasihuddin,M.A. Sheikh ( Department of Urological Surgery and Transplantation, Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center, Karachi. ) Abstract Aims: To evaluate the frequency of urinary tract infection in patients with suprapubic cystostomy and other complications of the procedure within 30 days of placement. Methods: Patients characteristics, indication and types of cystostomy and short term (within 30 days); complications were analyzed in 91 patients. Urine analysis and culture was done in all patients to exclude those with urinary tract infection. After 15 and 30 days of the procedure, urine analysis and culture was repeated to evaluate the frequency of urinary tract infection. The prevalence of symptomatic bacteriuria with its organisms was assessed. Antibiotics were given to the postoperative and symptomatic patients and the relationship of antibiotics on the prevention of urinary tract infection was determined. Results: Of the 91 cases 88 were males and 3 females. The mean age was 40.52 ± 18.95 with a range of 15 to 82 years.Obstructive uropathy of lower urinary tract.was present in 81% cases and 17(18.6%) had history of trauma to urethra. All these cases had per-urethral bleeding on examination while x-ray urethrogram showed grade H or grade III injury of urethra. Eighty two of the procedures were performed per-cutaneously and 7 were converted to open cystostomies due to failure of per-cutaneous approach. Nine patients had exploratory laparotomy. Duration of catheterization was the leading risk factor for urinary tract infection found in 24.1% at 15 days and 97.8% at 30 days.

Forgotten D-J stents may lead to complications, such as migration, fragmentation and encrustation. We report the case of a forgotten stent, concomitant with ureteral and bladder stones. The forgotten D-J stent was placed four years prior to our intervention, during treatment for multiple right renal stones. Holmium laser lithotripsy was used to disrupt encrustations on a ureteral orifice and the ureteral stent. The percutaneous suprapubic cystostomy was removed without breaking the stent.

A small laser fiber is then used to break the stone into small pieces that are then extracted or flushed out. In most cases, to ensure that the kidney drains urine well after surgery, a ureteral stent is left in place. Ureteroscopy can also be performed for stones located within the kidney. Similar to ureteral stones, kidney stones can be fragmented and removed with baskets. Occasionally, a kidney stone will fragment with a laser into very small pieces (grains of sand), too small to be basketed. A stent is usually left in place to allow these pieces to clear over time. Ureteral Stenting: Almost always after ureteroscopy, a ureteral stent will be placed. This is a thin, hollow, plastic tube that is used temporarily to keep the ureter open and facilitates drainage of urine down to the bladder until it heals. It also allows the urine to drain and any small stone fragments to pass freely.
