Abstract :Extremities are the usual site of involvement in Rhabdomyosarcomas whereas paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma is an extremely rare, which is known to be an aggressive variety of paratesticular tumors occurring in first and second decades of life. They usually develop from the tunica, epididymis or the spermatic cord. Precise preoperative diagnosis is seldom established. It can be mistaken as epididymitis, scrotal abscess, hydrocele, testicular tumors, tuberculosis of testis and strangulated or obstructed inguinal hernia, as in our case.

Megameatus with intact prepuce (MIP) hypospadias variant applicated tubularized incised plate (TIP) urethroplasty: A rare case report |
Author : Bahattin Aydogdu, Mehmet Hanifi Okur, Hikmet Zeytun, Selcuk Otcu |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :A megameatus with intact prepuce (MIP) is an unusual variant of an anterior hypospadias that accounts for 3% of hypospadias repairs. It is characterized by a widely splayed coronal or subcoronal meatus, a deep glanular groove, a normally conformed prepuce, and no chordee. In this case, good cosmetic and functional outcomes, such as achievement of a straight urine stream and patient satisfaction, were achieved using the tubularized incised plate (TIP) procedure. However, each case of MIP is unique, and a suitable procedure should be tailored to individual cases. |
