    (2015) Cicek, Tufan; Kizilkan, Yalcin; Coban, Gokcen; Kosan, Murat; 0000-0002-4729-0100; 0000-0002-0784-9926; 25831685; P-7533-2014; ADD-5305-2022
    Urethral duplication is quite a rare congenital anomaly with ill-defined aetiology. Patients often present with penile deformity, recurrent urinary infections, urinary incontinence, serosal discharge from the accessory urethra, and difficulty in urinating. Urethral duplication is most commonly grouped according to the Efmann classification. It has 3 main types as Type I, II, and III. There is no consensus on its therapy. There are non-surgical solutions, including follow-up without therapy, as well as many surgical options, including urethral reconstruction. Anatomical urethra and the external sphincter should absolutely be delineated when a surgery is contemplated. We herein report the case of a two-year-old male patient referred to our clinic with recurrent urinary infection, bilateral hydronephrosis and difficulty in urinating who was diagnosed with urethral duplication. We discuss our findings with review of the relevant literature.

    A Rare Diagnosis in the Neck During Childhood: Congenital Chondrolipoma
    (2017) Ozer, Fulya; Bal, Nebil; 0000-0001-5381-6861; 24715556; ABC-1809-2020
    Chondrolipomas are mesenchymal tumors that found as mature cartilage tissue in a fat tissue. A 2-year-old boy was seen with a complaint of a mass of the neck. On physical examination of the child, there was a one-centimeter mass above the sternocleidomastoid muscle on the lateral neck. Pathological examination of this mass after excision was reported as chondrolipoma. Chondrolipomas are seen mostly in the breast and in the adult. They are rare tumors of the head and neck area and seen mostly the in oral cavity here. This is the first case of chondrolipoma with this age and localization combination in the literature. Chondrolipoma should therefore also be considered in the differential diagnosis of congenital masses located at lateral cervical area.
