    Spontaneous Corpus Cavernosum Abscess in a Healthy Man Using Long-Term Androgenic Anabolic Steroids
    (2015) Tuzel, Emre; 25927061
    Abscess formation of the corpus cavernosum is very rare. Here, we report a case of long-term anabolic androgenic steroid (AAS) abuse that is suspected to have facilitated the development of a corpus cavernosum abscess in a healthy bodybuilder. Cultures obtained from the abscess contained Staphylococcus epidermidis, a microorganism that almost exclusively affects immuno-compromised patients. Therefore, prompt drainage of pus from cavernosal bodies should be the primary aim of the treatment. This case illustrates the potential danger of AAS suppressing the immune system and causing a serious infection.

    A Rare Complication of Brucellosis: Testicular Abscess
    (2015) Gul, Umit; Demiroglu, Yusuf Ziya; Erbay, Gurcan; Kocer, Nazim Emrah
    Brucellosis is a zoonosis caused by Brucella species. Brucella epididymo-orchitis had been reported in up to 20% of patients with brucellosis. This case was a male patient who developed Brucella epidiymo-orchitis and testicular abscess. He had fever, arthralgia and his right epididymis and right testicle were enlarged and tender. Ultrasound evaluation showed hypertrophy of the right epididymis and testis and moreover hypoechoic area within the testis. Brucella serology was positive and the patient did not respond completely to treatment with streptomycin, doxycycline, and rifampicina. Unilateral orchidectomy was decided. In areas where brucella infection is endemic brucella epididymo-orchitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis. Effective and rapid treatment is important. It should be noted that these patients may develop testicular abscess.

    (2016) Karadeli, Elif; Erbay, Gurcan; 0000-0002-0352-8818; 0000-0002-1706-8680; AAK-5399-2021; AAK-5370-2021
    Duodenal fistula is rarely seen. It occurs after gastric, aort, bowel operation, or trauma and foreign body perforastion. In this case report we present abdominal tomography findings of duodenal (enterocutaneous) fistula due to brucella.Duodenal fistula is rarely seen.
