Introduction: Peyronie's disease is an acquired fi brosis of the corpora cavernosa which causes deformation of the penis and represents one of the causes of erectile insuffi ciency with serious consequences for the life of a couple. The diagnosis is clinical and the treatment is medico-surgical. Objective: Evaluation of the sexuality of patients with Peyronie's disease. Patients and methods: This prospective study occured from February 2017 to December 2019 including patients suffering all from Peyronie's Disease (PD). The IIEF (International Index of Erectile Function), EHS (Erection Hardness Score) and T LUE scores were used to assess erectile function and the severity of PD. The preestablished data were: Age, co-morbidities, delays, medical background, the onset mode, data from the penis examination in the fl accid state and in erection, general examination and therapeutic management. Results: We listed 20 patients; the average age is 58.2years (39-69years). The onset was progressive in 80% of the patients; the average consultation time was 14.1 months. Deformation was the most frequent symptom in 70% of cases, followed by the coital discomfort in 50%. Intromission was accompanied by a discomfort in 60%. In 80% of patients the disease was at the sclerotic stage. Palpation of the plaque was found in 60% of patients. The IIEF score was 14,6 and 80% of patients had erectile dysfunction, 40% of which was moderate. Grade 4 EHS was predominant in 60%, pain was mild in erection in 40% case. Dyspareunia has been reported by 60% of partners. Medical treatment was prescribed for 60% of our patients, 40% of whom received medical treatment for the dysfunction. Conclusions: PD signifi cantly alters the sexual and relational quality of patient's lives.
Introduction : Obstructive anuria due to pelvic cancers is the most common obstructive anuria in our context, its diagnosis is easy, but it causes a lot of morbidity with often heavy and long management. Materials and methods : This is a retrospective study containing 40 cases of confirmed neoplastic anuria treated in the urology department at the Ibn Rochd University Hospital in Casablanca Morocco between January 2016 and October 2018. Purpose : The aim of our study was to establish the epidemiological, clinical, therapeutic and natural historyin patients with neoplastic obstructive anuria. Results : The mean age was 56 years old with a notable female predominance. The male to female ratio was 0.6. Sixty percent (60%) of our patients were consulted within24 hours after the onset of anuria, the main symptoms preceding or accompanying anuria were lower back pain (75%) and hematuria (37.5%). Criteria for a positive diagnosis included urinary retention with complete absence of diuresis, the anuria was confirmed by probing or ultrasound, dilation of the urinary excretory system on ultrasound and acute impairment of renal function. To prevent patient from going into metabolic disorders, hemodialysis was performed in 27 patients (67.5%). Internal diversion of urine by mounting a JJ catheter was initially attempted in 40% of the cases. In case of attempt failure, or in case of locally advanced pelvic tumors, percutaneous nephrostomy was performed with a success rate of 100%. Upon follow up for 30 months, mortality rate was 5% (n=2), 95% of the patients benefited from a specialized follow-up for their etiological neoplasm. Conclusion : The management of neoplastic obstructive anuria must be rapid, the type of urinary diversion is chosen according to the clinical presentation and the technical platform available.
Emphysematous cystitis is a rare form of lower urinary tract infection characterized by the presence of gas in the lumen and / or bladder wall. We report a case of a 64 year old patient hospitalized for an acute abdominal table. The diagnosis of emphysematous cystitis complicated by bladder perforation was made after performing an abdominal scan. Medico-surgical treatment has been initiated.
