Microbiologist in the clinic: coitally related symptoms with negative urine cultures
AbstractIn this first episode of the Microbiologist in the Clinic series, clinicians and laboratory scientists share their perspectives about a 30 y/o woman, who is seeking specialty consultation for frequent episodes of urinary urgency, frequency, and dysuria, which respond to short courses of antibiotics. Although her home dipsticks suggest that she has a UTI, and her urinalysis typically has a moderate number of white blood cells, her urine cultures are always negative.

Complete labia majora fusion after obliterative surgical procedure: a video case report
We present the case of an 80  year-old woman with a history of progressive difficulty on voiding onset and sensation of incomplete bladder emptying. She reported an obliterative procedure to correct her pelvic organ prolapse (POP) 10 years earlier. On physical examination, complete fusion of labia majora was observed, causing abnormal urinary drainage. Perineal reconstructive surgery was performed without complications and the application of topical Promestriene was prescribed. Optimal genital re-epithelization was observed during follow-up. As observed, patients undergoing obliterative surgery who present with genital a...
