Complications due to uterine leiomyomata in chimpanzees have rarely been documented. Here we describe a female chimpanzee that developed severe hydronephrosis in the right kidney due to leiomyoma. Because hysterectomy did not alleviate the hydronephrosis, nephrectomy was elected. After these procedures, the chimpanzee is doing well. Leiomyomata screening programs with treatment algorithms are a useful component of a comprehensive chimpanzee program.

The surgical approach of ureteral stricture has changed dramatically over the past 15 years with the rise of robotic upper urinary tract reconstruction. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of all robotic ureteral reconstructions performed at a single academic center for ureteral stricture and to assess the predictive factors of stricture recurrence. The charts of all patients who underwent robot-assisted ureteral reconstruction between 2013 and 2024 at a single academic center were retrospectively reviewed.

Introduction And Importance: Foreign body ingestion is a significant clinical concern, particularly among elderly and psychiatric patients, often leading to complications such as intestinal obstruction. In this article, we present an intriguing case of dual intestinal and urinary obstruction caused by the ingestion of a dental bridge in a patient with Bricker urinary diversion. Through this rare case, we aim to explore the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges associated with such incidents, supported by a comprehensive review of the literature.

Background: The complication related to the use of stent and its duration are still considered in the treatment option of UPJO despite the high success rates of several pyeloplasty techniques.
Methods: A systematic search was performed using PubMed/MEDLINE, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane databases, selecting cohort and controlled trial studies until April 2023. The following medical subject headings (MeSH) were included in the search: stent, ureteropelvic junction obstruction, pyeloplasty and children.

Rationale: This study aims to highlight the diagnostic challenges and multidisciplinary management of pelvic lipomatosis (PL), emphasizing imaging's pivotal role and the need for early intervention to mitigate long-term morbidity. With fewer than 200 reported cases, PL remains underrecognized; this case underscores its potential to mimic common gastrointestinal/urinary disorders, advocating for heightened clinical suspicion.
Patient Concerns: A 42-year-old male presented with a 2-day history of colicky abdominal pain under the xiphoid process, ac companied by nausea, vomiting, and watery stools.
