Pure smalls cells carcinoma of the prostate is a rare tumour with a pejorative forecast. We report a case of neuroendocrine smalls cells carcinoma  developed at a 68 years old patient. This tumour expressed a positive marking immunohistochimic with chromogranin A, the rate of PSA was on the other hand normal (2.9 ng/ml). The patient was treated by chemotherapy associating etoposide and cisplatinium and external radiotherapy. He is deceased 4 months afterwards. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Cystic tumors of the adrenal gland are uncommon, but are being increasingly more frequently diagnosed during routine radiological evaluation. The management of these “incidentalomas” remains to be defined. Adrenal cysts have been traditionally managed by excision or aspiration to rule out malignancy. Actually, for some authors, in the cases of incidentally found cysts, if the suspicion of malignancy is low, and the lesion is non-functional, observation of the patients with regular follow-up may be an alternative. We report a case of a non-aspirated incidental adrenal cyst with a follow-up of four years. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

We report a case of penile reconstruction after traumatic loss of the penis in a 27-year old man who was electrocuted. Phalloplasty using the remaining stumps of the corpora cavernosa was performed. The functional and cosmetic aspects of the organ are good.
