    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 In order to identify a high-risk group for the development of arterial hypertension after extracorporeal shock wave nephrolithotripsy (ESWL), we correlated the increase in renovascular resistance induced by ESWL in 79 normotensive patients with changes in arterial blood pressure occurring 20 (+-3) months after therapy. Renal vascular resistance was measured as resistive index (RI) by duplex Doppler sonography in both kidneys. Mean RI before treatment was 0.620±0.035 (SD). After treatment, we observed a significant and age-dependent increase in the RI in the treated kidney to 0.673 ± 0.06. Of the patients with a post-ESWL RI〉 0.690, 39% developed hypertension. Posttherapy RI values surpassing 0.690 showed a 0.8 sensitivity and a 0.7 specificity in predicting arterial hypertension. Intrarenal Doppler ultrasound (US) is useful to find the high-risk group for arterial hypertension after ESWL.
