RESUMO
Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is a rare sarcoma subtype. The most common tumor locations are the deep soft tissue of extremities or trunks. We report a rare case of recurrent LGFMS in the inguinal region involving the scrotum and both testicles. A 38-year-old male patient reported a history of multiple nodular lesions in the left inguinal region accompanied by local inflammation. The patient was submitted for local resection of the lesion at our institution, with histopathological diagnosis of LGFMS. He missed his follow-up, returning with a large bulge in the left inguinal region involving the scrotum with signs of tissue necrosis and local purulent discharge. Surgical exploration was performed and the patient underwent tumor resection in the left inguinal region and the entire scrotum, with bilateral orchiectomy, with the margins enlarged to the right inguinal region and proximal surface of the penis. Local reconstruction was performed with a left fascia lata tensor muscle flap and ipsilateral thigh coverage using partial skin graft. On microscopic examination, the tumor showed spindle cells arranged in bundles, with abundant collagen and myxoid stroma with interspersed prominent vessels. The immunohistochemical study carried out showed immunoreactivity with Ki67 (<5%), immunonegativity with desmin and S100, confirming the diagnosis of LGFMS. Postoperative recovery was good and no recurrence was seen after two years. The patient is in good health, realizing multidisciplinary outpatient follow-up and performing continuous testosterone replacement. Surgical resection with negative margins for localized disease remains the standard treatment for LGFMS.

ABSTRACT Objective To present the evolution and the recent data on the etiology, diagnosis, management and outcomes of penile fracture (PF) with concomitant urethral injury. Materials and Methods We searched the Pubmed database between 1998 and 2019 using the following key words: "penile fracture", "fracture of penis", "trauma to penis", "rupture of corpora cavernosa", "urethral injury", "urethral rupture" and "urethral reconstruction". Results The incidence of urethral lesion in patients with PF varies by geographic region and etiology. Blood in the meatus, hematuria and voiding symptoms are highly indicative of urethral rupture. The diagnosis of PF is eminently clinical and complementary exams are not necessary. The treatment consists of urethral reconstruction and the most common complications found are urethral stenosis and urethrocutaneous fistula. Conclusion PF is an uncommon urological emergency, particularly in cases with urethral involvement. Urethral injury should be suspected in the presence of suggestive clinical signs, and diagnosis is usually clinical. Urgent urethral reconstruction is mandatory and produces satisfactory results with low levels of complications.

CONCLUSION: PF is an uncommon urological emergency, particularly in cases with urethral involvement. Urethral injury should be suspected in the presence of suggestive clinical signs, and diagnosis is usually clinical. Urgent urethral reconstruction is man-datory and produces satisfactory results with low levels of complications.
