Introduction: Most common benign tumours of smooth muscle is leiomyoma which is frequently seen in uterus. Extrauterine leiomyoma are rare especially in the deep soft tissue like female urethra. Thus, presence of a urethra mass poses a significant diagnostic challenge as its differential diagnosis includes an extensive list of both benign and malignant pathologies of gynaecological or urologic origin. We describe an unusual case of urethral leiomyoma that was mistaken as bladder mass.

Kallmann syndrome is a rare sporadic and inherited chromosomal disorder, resulting in olfactogenital dysplasia. Embryonic olfactory epithelium gives rise to cells that differentiate into GnRH secreting neurons. These GnRH neurons which originate in the olfactory placode (i.e. the early developing nose); then migrate along the fetal olfactory neurons that also originate in the nose; and eventually enter the brain ultimately finding their way to the hypothalamus. In KS, there is Failed neuronal migration from olfactory placode to the hypothalamus.

Urethral stricture disease is a common urological condition, resulting from trauma and infection. We want to report a case of urethral carcinoma which was mistaken to be benign urethral stricture disease. Signs and symptoms of urethral cancer are neither diagnostic or pathognomonic.

Intravesical mesh erosion is an uncommon late complication of a synthetic sling for SUI.Incidence reported between 0.6 to 3 %.Optimal management remains controversial, though there is tendency towards surgical removal by various routes. Here we describe a case which was managed endoscopically by transurethral laser excision of eroded sling mesh.

This study determinedthe level of Awareness on the Lapu-Lapu City Ordinance No. 93 among the Fishermen in Barangay San Vicente, Barangay Tingo, and Barangay SabangLapu-Lapu City.Any infringement of a criminal statute specifically enacted to preserve wildlife is considered a wildlife crime, according to a widely used though extremely broad definition of the term.

The observation of the researcher as a nurse in a hospital in South-East, Nigeria is that intra-professional conflict is rife among nurses. Strikingly, the incidence of intra-professional conflict among nurses could be a function of many factors among which are age and academic qualifications. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate Effects of age and academic qualification on intra-professional conflict among nurses in selected hospitals in South-East, Nigeria.

Background- Double-J (DJ) stents have become fundamental and widely employed instruments in urology across various procedures, tracing back to their initial introduction in 1967 by Zimskind et al. The typical lifespan of a DJ stent after which it necessitates replacement or removal to prevent potential complications. Despite this, instances of stent negligence are not uncommon.

Anemia is a frequent co-morbidity in patients with heart failure, associated with an increased risk of hospitalization, morbidities, and mortality, making its correction an important factor in improving the quality of life and clinical data, in patients who have both of these pathologies. This article reviews the multifactorial etiology of anemia in heart failure patients, including iron deficiency, chronic inflammation, abnormal levels of erythropoietin, and the abnormal activation of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone (SRAA) system, as the main cause of this pathology.
