Administration of EPO significantly influenced the rescue of testicular function by preserving the intact seminiferous tubular morphology, lowering the percentage of necrotic seminipherous tubules, and significantly reducing histological damage (P < 0.05).

Buschke-L€ owenstein tumor (BLT) is a verrucous lesion that grows slowly, causing regional infiltration and deformity. It is very rare during childhood and usually has a benign course. It is related to the human papilloma virus type 6 and type 11. Poor hygiene, chronic irritation, diabetes and impaired cellular immunity are other factors thought to play a role in the etiology of the disease. The first-choice treatment modality is total surgical excision. Herein we describe three cases to illustrate the success of total surgical excision via electrocautery in the treatment of BLT, and the excellent cosmetic outcome of the method.

Objective: To contribute to the explanation of the etiology of enuresis, which is quite prevalent, by investigating its relationship with urine pH and density. Methods: A total of 45558 children were included in the study. Based on screening results, 44201 children without enuresis were assigned to Group 1 and 1357 children with enuresis to Group 2. Complete urinalysis results of all children who had been identified were scanned and values of urine pH and density were obtained. Intergroup differences with regard to urine pH and density were analyzed using Student’s t-test. A p value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The group with enuresis was determined to be statistically significantly younger, and has lower urine pH, and density. Conclusion: The results of our study are consistent with current data. Our study, which will be among one of the largest-scale enuresis studies in the literature, provides guidance to physicians by reminding them the importance of urinary tract infections in the etiology of enuresis.
