PURPOSE The surgical treatment of urogenital sinus anomalies has undergone significant advances in recent years. Total urogenital mobilization, which mobilizes the urogenital sinus, vagina and urethra en bloc toward the perineum, represents one of these advances. MATERIALS AND METHODS We have improved our results with total urogenital mobilization by incorporating the mobilized urogenital sin...

The cloaca/urogenital sinus and its adjacent region differentiate into the urogenital/reproductive organs. Caudal regression syndrome (CRS; including mermaid syndrome), a type of severe cloacal malformation displays hindlimb fusion and urogenital organ defects, thus suggesting that such defects are caused by several morphogenetic alterations during early development. The attenuation of bone mor...

PURPOSE Retinopathy, neuropathy, and nephropathy are well-known complications of diabetes; they are often expected to occur and, therefore, are usually tested for. However, urogenital complications, such as sexual and voiding dysfunctions, are less well known, and consequently, many patients are not treated appropriately despite their symptoms. Thus, we surveyed diabetic patients with regard to...

Introduction. Everywhere there is a weighting of the structure urogenital tuberculosis. Tuberculosis testis and its epididymis difficult to diagnose because it does not have pathognomonic symptoms; diagnosis cannot be verified microbiologically in study ejaculate or prostate secretion, however, possible detect pathogen biopsy specimens surgical material. Materials methods. Search results were a...

The association between the major histocompatibility antigen HLA-B27 and ankylosing spondylitis is the strongest of all known associations between class I HLA and disease. Over 90% of patients with ankylosing spondylitis have B27,1 whereas it is found only in 7-15% of normal white subjects. In addition, B27 is associated with certain reactive inflammatory conditions following gastrointestinal o...
