Suprapubic cystostomy by trocar is a simple, safe and useful method for urinary diversion in acute urinary retention. But rarely, severe complications occur during or after suprapubic cystostomy such as bowel perforation, through and through perforation of the bladder, rectal injury and severe hematuria. We studied the complications of suprapubic cystostomy retrospectively and compared 19 patients who performed ultrasonographic examination with 30 patients without ultrasonographic examination. The complications in 30 patients without preliminary ultrasonographic examination were initial failure in 4 cases (13.3%), extravesical Foley indwelling in 2 cases (6.7%), puncture site closed to the pubic bone in 2 cases (6.7%), spontaneous bladder rupture in 1 case (3.3%) and bowel injury in 1 case (3.3%). But, the complication in 19 patients with preliminary ultrasonographic examination was only 1 retried case (5.3%) because of extravesical Foley indwelling. As above results, the brief preliminary ultrasonographic examination of the bladder is a very useful method with minimal risk during suprapubic cystostomy by trocar.

Paget's disease of bone (osteitis deformans), a chronic osseous disease of unknown etiology, is extremely rarein Asia although well known in western countries. This disease is characterized by the simultaneous absorption ofbone and the new bone formation of abnormal character affecting middle and later age groups. The authorsexperienced a case of monostotic Paget's disease involving left pelvic bone in 56-years old female. To ourknowledge, this is the first cas report of monostotic Paget's in Korea.

Vesical dome tumors are classified, according to their origin, as either vesical or urachal. A case of vesical dome tumor was diagnosed as an urachal carcinoma preoperatively because CT scan and cystoscopic findings were suitable to the diagnostic criteria of urachal carcinoma, but the transurethral biopsy result was transitional cell carcinoma (TCC). The final histopathologic report after extended partial cystectomy revealed that the tumor was originated from vesical mucosa and an intact urachal remnant was found around the resected mass. In a tumor situated on the midline of bladder dome, a transurethral biopsy before curative operation is essential.
