Prostatic Burkitt Lymphoma, a Rare Secondary Location

Introduction: Non-Hodgkin’s malignant lymphoma is found primarily in African children. Prostate localization is a rare entity. We report the case of a secondary prostatic localization of Burkitt lymphoma in a 14-year-old child. Observation: the 14-year-old child NNJ was followed at the Libreville Cancer Institute (ICL) for Burkitt maxillo-facial stage II bilateral Murphy lymphoma. The clinical examination noted an alteration of the general state, total hematuria, a voluminous prostatic mass filling the rectal ampoule. The paraclinical assessment noted renal insufficiency, a prostatic mass on ultrasound. Anatomo-pathological examination of the prostatic biopsy diagnosed Burkitt type non-Hodgkin’s malignant lymphoma. He died a week later. Conclusion: Primary or secondary prostatic lymphoma is rare. Obstructive renal insufficiency is an additional complication that darkens its prognosis by delaying etiological treatment based on polychemotherapy.

Are There Prognostic Factors for Failure of Surgical Treatment of Post-Traumatic Posterior Ureteral Stenosis? About 30 Cases and Review of the Literature

Introduction: The management of post-traumatic stenosis of the posterior urethra is divided between early endoscopic realignment and delayed surgery. In the latter case, several techniques are used taking into account several factors. Our objective was therefore to investigate the possible prognostic factors of failure of this surgical management. Material and Methods: We conducted a retrospective study from January 2006 to December 2017 on patients admitted to the Urology Department of the Mohammed 6 University Hospital of Marrakech for management of post-traumatic posterior urethral stenosis. The parameters studied were age, medical and surgical history, causes, characteristics of the stenosis (location, number, length), associated lesions, surgical technique used, and evolution. The descriptive analysis consisted of calculation of absolute and relative frequencies for the qualitative variables, and of position and dispersion parameters for the quantitative variables (mean, standard deviation). In bivariate analysis, the comparison of categorical variables used Pearson’s Chi-square statistical test and Fisher’s test if necessary. The significance threshold was set at p Results: A total of 30 cases were selected. The age of our patients varied between 18 and 68 years, with an average of 38.33 years (16 - 80 years);the most affected age group was between 20 and 39 years. The mode of revelation of urethral damage was dominated by acute retention of urine present in 76% of patients, followed by dysuria (33%). The stenosis extended over 21.91 mm on average (14 - 40 mm). It was accompanied by bone involvement in 15 patients (53.3%). Erectile dysfunction was present in 23 patients (23%). Terminal urethrogram was the main surgical technique used, followed by internal urethrotomy (60% and 30% respectively). 15 patients had a recurrence, with an average of 1-second operation. Statistical analysis of the different factors studied showed no correlation with the occurrence of recurrence after surgical treatment. Conclusion: The medium and long term results of anastomotic repair of the posterior urethra do not seem to depend on the lesion parameters of the stenosis (site, number, extent, presence of associated bony lesions or erectile disorders).

Sexual Functional Prognosis of Penile Emergencies at the University Hospital of Libreville

Introduction: Penile emergencies are multiple and varied, and they can jeopardize the sexual functional prognosis of the patient. The objective of our study was to evaluate the sexual functional prognosis of patients admitted for penile emergencies. Patients and Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study from January 1 to 31, 2021, in the urology department of the University Hospital. Variables included sociodemographic, diagnostic, and evolutionary data of sexually active patients admitted for a penile emergency. Results: During this period, 68 patients were admitted for penile emergencies. We included 45 sexually active patients, with a mean age ranging from 34.5 ± 14.1 years with extremes of 16 and 90 years. The most frequent penile emergencies were priapism (62.2%) and penile fracture (22.2%), with a mean time for treatment of 21.4 ± 52.5 hours. The sexual functional prognosis was very satisfactory (normal erection) in 71.1% (n = 32) of patients. Loss of erectile function was observed in 4.4% (n = 2) of cases. Conclusion: Penile emergencies are relatively frequent, dominated by priapism and penile fracture in our context. The sexual functional prognosis is good.

Acute Priapism: A Revealing Inaugural Mode of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Priapism is a painful and prolonged erection occurring without any sexual stimulation and not resulting in ejaculation. It most often occurs in patients with sickle cell disease. We report here the case of acute recurrent priapism revealing inaugural mode of CML in a 22-year-old patient with no particular pathological history. The study of the onco-hematological karyotype revealed a karyotype with 46 chromosomes with a clonal chromosomal anomaly: The t (9;22) “Philadelphia chromosome”. The evolution was favorable under imatinib.
