    Abstract A 68-year-old man was referred with acute left side varicocele scrotum. Abdominal computed tomography showed a mass lesion in left kidney. The patient underwent radical nephrectomy. Microscopic histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma. The majority of varicocele have a non-pathological etiology but acute varicocele may indicate retroperitoneal mass.

    Abstract Venous thromboembolism (VTE), which includes deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is a serious complication that can occur after urological surgeries. It is a leading cause of preventable hospital-related morbidity and mortality in surgical patients [1]. In urological surgeries, VTE remains a serious complication and a significant challenge [2] and PE is considered as the most common cause of postoperative death in patients undergoing major urologic surgery [3]. The decision to use thromboprophylaxis in urological surgeries involves weighing the reduction in VTE risk against the potential increase in perioperative bleeding [4]. However, there is a lack of procedure-specific evidences about thromboprophylaxis in urologic surgeries. Therefore, we have reviewed the available evidence on thromboprophylaxis in urological surgeries and we have tried to summarized these evidences in a procedure specific context.

    Abstract Background and aims: Health injustice is defined as "unnecessary, preventable, unjustified and unfair health differences." One of the most important scientific sources on the prevention and management of urolithiasis are Cochrane reviews in this field. Given that the first step in eliminating health injustice is to identify the causes, the aim of the present study was to evaluate equity considerations in Cochrane reviews and the included primary studies on urinary stones.
    Methods: Cochrane reviews on kidney stones and ureteral stones were searched through the Cochrane Library. The included clinical trials in each of the reviews published after 2000 were also collected. Two different researchers reviewed all the included Cochrane reviews and primary studies. The researchers reviewed each PROGRESS criteria independently (P: place of residence, R: race/ethnicity/culture, O: occupation, G: gender, R: religion, E: education, S: socioeconomic status, S: social capital and networks). The geographical location of the included studies was categorized as low-income, middle-income and high-income countries, based on the World Bank income criteria. Each PROGRESS dimension was reported for both the Cochrane reviews and the primary studies.
    Results: In total, 12 Cochrane reviews and 140 primary studies were included in this study. None of the included Cochrane reviews had specifically mentioned the PROGRESS framework in the Method section whereas gender distribution and place of residence were reported in two and one reviews, respectively. In 134 primary studies at least one item of PROGRESS was reported. The most frequent item was gender distribution, followed by place of residence.
    Conclusion: According to the results of this study, the authors of Cochrane systematic reviews on urolithiasis, and researchers who have conducted such trials, have rarely considered health equity dimensions when designing and performing their studies. Therefore, researchers worldwide should be motivated to study populations from low-income countries with low socioeconomic status in addition to different cultures, ethnicities, and so forth. Furthermore, RCT reporting guidelines such as CONSORT should include health equity dimensions and the editors and reviewers of scientific journals should encourage researchers to further emphasize on health equity in their studies.

    Abstract Cushing's syndrome has been believed to be a paraneoplastic syndrome of renal cell carcinomas. However, there appears to be a dearth of compelling evidence to substantiate this notion. The only eligible documentation of Cushing's syndrome due to ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion by renal cancer in English literature dates back to 1988, and it pertains to a deceased patient discovered during an autopsy. Here, we present the first case of Cushing's syndrome as a paraneoplastic feature of renal cancer which showed complete resolution following surgical removal of the tumor. Additionally, we conduct review of the literature on this particular subject.

    Abstract Percutaneous nephrostomy has become a well-established technique for providing permanent or temporary drainage of an obstructed urinary system for decades. Although it is generally considered a safe intervention, some complications might be life threatening. Here we present a case of bilateral nephrostomy insertion due to T-cell lymphoma, that presented with signs of bowel obstruction 3 weeks after intervention. Abdominal exploration showed bowel obstruction due to invagination of bowel loop between left nephrostomy tube and abdominal wall which resolved by release of bowel loop and changing nephrostomy route to pass through retroperitoneum only.

    Abstract Background Publication bias is one of the most important biases in systematic reviews and meta-analyses. This bias occurs when the results of an article affect its publication, in other words positive or significant findings are more likely to be published than the other probable results. Previous studies have shown that publication bias has been a matter of concern in the meta-analysis and systematic reviews conducted in some medical fields.  There is not a study that has evaluated the status of publication bias assessment in urology systematic reviews. We decided to assess the status of publication bias evaluation in systematic reviews and meta-analyses published in high impact urology journals.   Methods This cross-sectional study was performed on 200 systematic reviews and meta-analysis published in four top urology journals based on their impact factor (European Urology, The Journal of Urology, BJU International and Prostate Cancer and Prostatic Diseases). Two independent reviewers performed data extraction about publication bias evaluation in included systematic reviews.   Results From the 200 included studies only 65 (32.5%) evaluated the publication bias in the review process and 31 reviews had reported publication bias in their study. Visual inspection of a funnel plot was the most frequent method used for evaluation of publication bias (61 from 65, 93.85%); this method was used alone in 34 articles and in combination with other methods in 27 papers.   Conclusion The present study confirms that publication bias was formally evaluated in a small number of reviews and meta-analysis published in urology journals, therefore, this may be a risk factor that could decrease the robustness of outcomes and results of these studies. It seems that there is an essential need for authors, reviewers, and editors to pay better attention to evaluation of publication bias besides reporting it based on the aforementioned reporting guidelines.

    Abstract In this article, we present a Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) patient with synchoronus bilateral testicular metastasis from renal cell carcinoma (RCC). A 50 year-old man, a known case of VHL syndrome was referred with palpable masses in both the testes. His medical history demonstrated that he had undergone the brain surgery for cerebellar hemangioblastoma. He had undergone simultaneous Whipple's pancreatectomy and left radical nephrectomy becuase of well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors in head and body of the pancreas and a 6-cm clear cell-type grade-3 RCC in the left kidney. Scrotal sonography demonstrated vascular and heteroechogen masses measuring 19×14 mm in lower pole of the right testicle, 19×16 mm in upper pole of the right testicle, and 23×16.5 mm in upper pole of the left testicle. After having patient's consent, bilateral orchiectomy was performed by inguinal incision. Histopathologic examination and immunohistochemistry staining revealed metastasis from RCC. The most common neoplasm of reproductive system in VHL patients is epididymal papillary cystadenoma. Owing to it's benign nature, the management is conservative with routine physical examination and ultrasonography. Our patient indicated that every scrotal mass in patients with VHL is not to be considered as epididymal papillary cystadenoma.
