    Notes: Abstract We examined 50 asymptomatic patients 6–60 months after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) by high-resolution sonography and additional colour-coded sonography and compared our results with the preoperative sonograms and the operative records. No lesions of larger vessels were detected, either arteriovenous fistulate or pseudoaneurysms. Avascular band-shaped hyperechoic parenchymal stripes were found in 17 of 50 patients (35%). As these did not appear in the preoperative sonograms, and as the stripes were in the same orientation as the neprrostomy canal, we believe them to be scar tissue.

    Notes: Abstract We report the case of a 44-year-old male presenting with deviation of the penis during erection. Upon physical and clinical examination the patient did not have the typical findings of Peyronie's disease, therefore he was admitted for further evaluation by conventional sonography, duplex Doppler ultrasound, endourethral ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Endourethral ultrasound and MRI provided evidence of Peyronie's disease with atypical involvement of the corpus spongiosum and, in addition, demonstrated nonpalpable plaques in the septum of the penis.

    Notes: Abstract. The aim of our study was to evaluate the striated urethral sphincter (rhabdosphincter) in incontinent females by means of intraurethral ultrasound (IUUS). Thirty-four incontinent and 11 continent female patients were examined by means of 12.5-MHz endoluminal ultrasound (US). The distance between the inner contour of the sphincter muscle and the US catheter was measured in the contracted and the non-contracted condition. The US findings were correlated with those obtained by urodynamic studies. Partial or complete loss of sphincter function was detected in patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Reduced sphincter function was not observed in patients with urge incontinence and continent volunteers. The findings on US were found to correlate well with the grade of SUI. The IUUS technique offers the benefit of direct visualization of the sphincter mechanism. Therefore, endoluminal US may become an important adjunct in the diagnostic evaluation of SUI and will possibly provide new insights for a better therapeutic strategy.
