The fistulas caused by mechanical trauma are rare, mainly the intrinsic type caused by vesical lithiasis. The treatment of these fistulas is controversial, concerning the ideal surgical technique. Several techniques have been developed, including the transvaginal and the transabdominal surgical approaches. The authors report the case of a patient with urinary loss for six months. Physical and radiological examination showed the occurrence of a vesicovaginal fistula caused by vesical lithiasis. The treatment was in two stages: first the extraction of the vesical stone by transabdominal approach and second, the correction of the fistula by transvaginal approach.

Paracoccidioidomycosis is an important systemic endemic mycosis in Latin America. This infection is usually acquired via inhalation of mycelial particles. Most infected subjects develop an asymptomatic infection, which is associated with various host-related factors such as sex, age, genetic, as well as characteristics of the infecting agent, mainly its virulence. It is a systemic pathology. A case of mastitis due to paracoccidioidomycosis is presented with the objective to demonstrate that elderly patients with a breast abscess should be submitted to biopsy.

Brenner's tumor is small, unilateral and benign. Its diagnosis can only be confirmed by the anatomomicopathological examination, that on microscopy presents nests or columns of transition epithelial cells in a fibromatous matrix. The epithelial cells present a characteristic longitudinal "coffee bean" furrow and can undergo carcinomatous transformation. We present a case of a menopausal patient with vaginal bleeding, and a palpable abdominal mass. She was submitted to surgical treatment (total hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy and omentectomy) with the histopathological diagnosis of Brenner's bilateral tumor, being malignant on one side and benign on the other. After surgical treatment she is now alive for three years and free of disease.
